Initial tweet on January 21 January 22: When asked if there are worries about a pandemic, Trump responded: "No. Not at all. And we have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China, and we have it under control. It’s going to be just fine." January 24: "It will all work out well." January 30: "We have it very well under control. We have very little problem in this country at this moment — five. And those people are all recuperating successfully."

February 26: "You know in many cases when you catch this it is very light — you don’t even know there’s a problem. Sometimes they just get the sniffles, sometimes they just get something where they are not feeling quite right and sometimes they feel really bad but that’s a little bit like the flu. It’s a little like the regular flu that we have flu shots for and we will essentially have a flu shot for this in a fairly quick manner." February 26: "This is a flu. This is like a flu."

gubermint bad and dumb give me pie

stirs I have to say this new dedication to moderation you've assumed is quite inspiring, especially after the 8 years you spent screeching about Obama and how the Democrats were destroying the country every day in the Tinderbox. Really amazing stuff.

Everybody should check out the corresponding thread in the Tinderbox that started in February. Lots of great takes that have aged extremely well from several of the people hanging out in this thread.

We had a three month head start and the President ignored it, joked about it, and wouldn't listen to any of the warnings. That's it.

That's probably what's coming here soon minus the smoke shops of course. I mean it's a simple but effective concept. As few people out in public as possible = as few infections as possible = healthcare system is stressed over a longer period of time but the stress is less intense.

lol

it's because we're off to never never land ooooh yeah yeahhhhhuh-uhhhhh

we also attempted the 27th most passes in the league with the most rushing attempts get cam slinging the ball around 40 times every week and let's check those numbers then

he was serving talib an ass whupping before he got injured. among other much-bitched-about factors that was one of the differences in the game i think.

i'm listening

it'll for sure come in training camp if not even earlier i still remember a few people flipping poo because ryan kalil, an all pro center, was owning star on the first day of his first camp

PFF heaped a ton of praise on him for his play on the outside when he finally got the start there in 2014 https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2015/02/13/sig-stats-ypcs-cornerbacks/

the last big one i can remember was matt cassell to the chiefs in 2009 tag and trades are rare. it takes a particular combination of the player being willing to sign his tender and cooperate (nobody is going to table a first round pick for a player if there's a chance he'll hold out), a realistic threat that the team tagging him might actually sign him to a long term extension before he can hit FA the next year, and the team doing the tagging willing to take the risk of possibly having to eat the contract if they can't find a trade partner. there is other stuff that can happen too. in the peppers situation we couldn't just ship him off to the browns or raiders for two first round picks and be done with it. he wouldn't sign his tender so he was technically not under the franchise tag yet and couldn't be traded. he was essentially playing chicken with the panthers as training camp approached with regard to whether it would turn into a holdout situation. he could sign the tender or the panthers could rescind the tag with no cap hit and release him to FA - those were the only options. once he signed the tender there was no turning back. he'd have to be traded or we'd be on the hook for his cap figure. tagging a player with the intention of trading him is really a tightrope and there are a lot of things that can go wrong for the team trying to pull it off. the player and his agent still have a lot of power in that arrangement.

he has major film room chops and a great understanding of football due to his complete immersion in many different aspects of it for decades. that sounds mundane but it's the difference between him and a GM like marty hurney and so many others. it leads to excellent value signings like michael oher which, as i'm sure everyone here remembers, was an absolute joke and garnered a massive wtf type reaction when it was announced. nobody was really excited about kurt coleman when was brought in either. i love reading fans of other teams discussing the guy. almost every one of them is going "where in the hell did this guy come from and how did he get passed over so many times". giants fans in particular have plenty of colorful things to say. it's nice to be on that side of things for once i have to admit.

you registered on a forum well after the game was over to try and call people out for "talking smack". do you really need how lame that is spoon fed to you? you wouldn't even be here if denver lost which means that your ability to even say anything like this is contingent on the contest being long over and the result being in your favor. even if some idiot posted about how the panthers are going to win 100-0 at least they did it before the game and didn't hide until it was safe to say something. you had nothing to lose in this scenario. you didn't expose yourself to possible ridicule by making predictions that could conceivably be wrong like everyone in this thread did no matter how crazy or unrealistic they were. you just wouldn't have shown up if the broncos had lost and nobody relevant to this thread would know or care about your existence. you'd be crying in your beer on whatever broncos site you post on cheering on your mods as they banned panthers fans showing up trying to do what you're doing right now. i mean if you don't get that then i'm not sure what else i can do to explain it.

Dumb ass challenge

well this guy here does pretty much adhere to the saints' color pallette
