  1. The Patriots are still probably the best team in the NFL. I think there's only two teams in the NFL that can beat them in the playoffs. One of them has a space cadet as a QB. One of them are out where the air is thin.
  2. Pete Carrol cries when other teams "run the score up", yet he goes for a fake punt in this game. What a bitch.

  4. And, you're assuming that criminals are going to obey "stricter gun laws". That's not reality. It's time to snap out of fantasy land. *The shooter in this case didn't go and buy the guns. He was actually turned down because of his paperwork. He got them from his mother who got them legally* All you want to do is make it harder for well behaved citizens to defend themselves in times of need.
  5. I don't disagree with most of what you have said. However, I'm not saying that guns don't make it easier to kill people. Everyone should know that guns do make it easier to kill people, but I would bet a lot of these mass shootings that have happened over the years were planned out. If they were planned out, they could have certainly built a device in that time to carry out their act as well. At the end of the day, I do think it may be too late for real gun control. People will always be making them illegally and selling them illegally. I don't really see how anyone can deny that. Yes, it will make it harder to the average citizen to get a gun, but that defeats the entire purpose of gun control. Those that want to commit the crimes will have no problem trying to go around the system and get their weapon illegally. You'll probably argue that gun control will make that harder for them to do, but at the end of the day, they will probably get what they want. At the end of the day, it comes down to the person themselves. This really shouldn't be much about guns, as the guns used in these shootings are barely any different than hunting weapons. However, the media has no clue about any of that and likes to act like some of these guns are solely crazy military weapons when in fact many people hunt animals with them.
  6. Try again. I'll let you do the research on how many of the 61 mass shootings in the past 20 years were from people who obtained guns legally versus illegally. Hint: You're going to look foolish for your statement.
  7. Except your point about being able to purchase those guns easily has absolutely nothing to do with this particular case, which a few of you don't seem to understand, or simply want to use your anti-gun propaganda. The kid got the guns from his moms house. If you want to argue that she should have had them secure, fine, but this has nothing to do with being able to go to a store or online and purchase ammo. It's just become another platform for the misinformed and misguided left to spread their propaganda. No, teachers should not have guns. I saw that suggestion yesterday too. Teachers can be some of the most unstable and emotional people, and all it takes is one comment to set one of them off, and then disaster could ensue right after. Also, I find it interesting how you guys (not you in particular) keep claiming that "criminals will be criminals" and will be able to find a weapon is a bogus argument. Sorry, but that's a FACT, and it happens time after time after time. If someone wants to get a lethal weapon like a gun, they will find a way to get it. Once again, no one has answered the question. If you want gun-control, how exactly are you going to go about it with all of the guns already out there? I don't have a problem with certain aspects of gun-control, but many of the ideas are simply unrealistic. It's probably already too late to do much about it.
  8. Yes, guns make it easier to kill people. I'm not denying that one bit. However, you have yet to explain how exactly "gun control" will be possible. The killer from this situation got the guns from his mom that were registered. That has absolutely nothing to do with "nut jobs" being able to go out and buy guns. No, I'm not someone who is going to play the entire, "Oh, cars kill many people, lets ban them too" type of argument. However, there are many ways to kill mass amounts of people, and if someone wants to do so badly enough, they will. Also, you're being foolish if you think the "criminals are criminals" stuff is an easy out. Criminals WILL get their hands on what they want, as has been demonstrated time after time. Again. how exactly are you going to have "gun control" I'd love to know.
  9. It's not the guns that are killing people. If someone knows how to use a knife well, they can kill 22 people if they want too. If someone wants to kill people, they will. They can make bombs, fires, etc. Are you going to stop them from making a bomb somehow? Are you going to ban and regulate every item that may be used to make a bomb. Reality check for you and the anti-gun/gun-control nut-jobs. It's too late for "gun control". I'm not sure how else to get it through your head that criminals are criminals because they break the law. They will get their hands on whatever they want. Once you get that through your head, maybe you'll understand. Oh, and the million dollar question for you. How are you going to have "gun control"? What steps are you going to take? News flash: It's already too late for gun control.
  10. Get off your soap box about gun control. These shootings would still happen whether or not there were stricter gun laws. Criminals get guns because they are criminals. It's probably too late to have any type of gun control. This should be about the innocent children, and not people going on about their gun control views like I'm sure the media will. I'm not bashing you, but this has little to do with gun control.

  12. A.J. Green needs a TD right about now..........
  13. Inb4 the Angels get their shit pushed in by the A's again this year.

  15. You seem to like to forget we play again next week and that this round is two weeks........... You had a LOTTTTTT go your way this week, which happens, but we'll see if it happens again next week. I expect Romo and Big Ben to have pretty good games. I doubt Flacco has a great game against the Broncos......... You really think Moreno is going to have a great game against Ngata and the Ravens defense? I expect Demaryius Thomas to get more points this week than last week, and Moreno to get less than last week, but we'll see. Peterson is going against the Rams and Richardson is going against the Redskins. I like those match-ups. Megatron against he Cardinals? Yes, please. A.J. Green against the Eagles? [expletive], yes. Demaryius Thomas agains the Ravens? We'll see. V-Jax against the Saints? Helllllllllll yes! Oh, and I don't think the Seahawks will be bailing your ass out again. We'll see what happens though.
  16. U wot m8? Brady has the MVP on lock right now if he plays well the next three games. The Patriots would tap dat Broncos ass if they played right now.
  17. You seem to keep forgetting that there's another week left between the two of us. Yes, I think Brady is going to go off against the Texans, and Andre could have a big game too, but there's an entire week between us left. I think you could be up by about 30-40 going into next week, but you have some very unfavorable match-ups next week, so I think you will need the cushion. I still can't believe I didn't sit Big Ben and you had the Seahawks defense left. They had more points than Peterson and Megatron combined, and they both had very good games. We'll see what happens though.
  18. You've lucked out so far bitch. I should have 132 points to your 113 right now, but I was in Cancun and couldn't use the internet to start Big Ben. Yes, I think Brady has a big game tomorrow night, so I'm probably screwed, but I have some favorable match-ups next week. Of course [expletive]ing Moreno went off, and the Seahawks defensive performance was nothing short of [expletive]ing retarded. When I got to the airport I saw the score of that game in the 4th Quarter, and I was 90% sure you had their defense, and sure enough, you did. If Andre doesn't have a big game tomorrow night, I could still come back, but it's looking grim right now. THIRTY-NINE [expletive]ING POINTS?!?!?!?!?!
  19. Hey, phaggot, did you forget there are two weeks for thuds round of the playoffs? I hope I [expletive]ing destroy your ass next week.
  20. Notsureifsrs.......... That's clearly not who I was talking about.
  21. Too bad you're WRONG about what is legal and illegal in regards to that, and that wasn't exactly what happened.
