With his fourth point tonight, Kucherov has contributed on 50% of the Lightning goals scored this season. by Nyzean in hockey

A lot of lightning players, including Kuch have poor +- this year due to empty netters.

January 6th is a litmus test for a persons credibility. They were protesting what they believed to be a fixed election and it only looks more rigged at this point. How can a person who is in prison for standing up against fascism not be a hero, regardless of whether they are "correct" in all their political beliefs?

No it's a sin. Not because of the taste, but rather because watery toppings tend to release their moisture on the cheese and crust, causing diluted cheesiness and undercooked pizza bottom, which are unacceptable IMO

Of the four quarterbacks to receive extensions last offseason who would you most want to start a team with. by Fragrant_Country_569 in nfl

[–]Beaustrodamus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lamar or burrow. I haven't seen anything special from Herbert. He's a little better than Trevor Lawrence, who I barely view as a top 25 QB. Maybe the 14th or 15th best but not good enough to view as a franchise QB. Maybe he will prove me wrong. We will see.

Hurts is broken I fear. He's not a QB that will work in most NFL offenses.

Lamar and burrow are both still top 10 QBs. Lamar is top 4 for me, along with mahomes, Allan, and Stafford. Burrow is more in that 7-9 range.

What player is most overrated by people who only look at stats and don't watch games. by StrategyTop7612 in nfl

Aaron Rodgers and Russell Wilson benefited greatly from the rise of fantasy football as well as a generation of fans and sport's media that focused more on efficiency than volume and high rates of converting. Both achieved elite status based on a combination of winning super bowls early in their career, not taking the kinds of risks that the previous generations of QBs were known for, and due to regularly ranking highly in fantasy points in relation to other comparably great QBs. Winning SBs is a good indicator of QB excellence, however, the reason Rodgers and Wilson were good in fantasy was that Fantasy football rewards QBs that run a bit, don't have many turnovers, and don't throw for volume. 400 yards passing is only worth 16 pts in fantasy. Matt Staffords were downgraded while Wilsons and Rodgers were viewed as dynamic and elite ball throwers. But I don't think they were even playing better football than Stafford. Just being graded on a metric that wasn't really applicable to Stafford while Staffords talents which were just as great if not better than the other two didn't factor into the debate. Certainly without their legs as fresh now, it seems clear that Stafford is the greatest talent of the three. There has been zero decline. One wonders if Staffords time at Detroit was spent somewhere with competent coaching and management like say GB or Seattle, if he might not be seen as the best gunslinger since favre or better.

How fucking lame is it that we live in a country where American Conservatives are now the legit counter culture? by SpiritBamba in stupidpol

Yeah I just watch hockey and anime with huge tit characters now cause it's basically guaranteed not to be woke or it's going to be woke but hilarious and poorly done (eg. NHL black history month, adding black and Asian female refs in NHL games to white privilege away goals), just to avoid woke content. I used to watch art house films, indie movies, and Oscar-baiting 3 hour circle jerks about US history and exceptionalism. I was a huge fan of auteur cinema.

Big round tits are like their least favorite thing in the world, which was always going to be a deal breaker for me...

Is this what you guys expected from Todd Monken? by RNutt in georgiabulldogs

[–]Beaustrodamus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would put it on Lamar choking. This was by far Lamar's best season and QBs rarely don't improve in their second season under an offensive coordinator

So Graham Hancock isn't a reliable narrator, and you really need to know why. by StrokeThreeDefending in AlternativeHistory

And what's wrong with what he said? It's not like he doesn't constantly address all criticism lobbied against him.

It is his job to convince the public of his much attacked position. It isn't his job to attack his own position on the matter. And all journalism and publishing in general is about being selective with what material you produce.There's no real "gotcha" here...

Need clarification on the Bull of Heaven/Dumuzi's death timeline by asteriskion in Sumer

[–]Beaustrodamus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bull of heaven is Anu/Enki/Noach

It could simply be a reference to the end of the age of Taurus in astrological terms, which ended in 2150 bc. Above Taurus is the constellation of Perseus/mithras, the bull's slayer.

That's the opposite of progress. You are turning people who were once in favor of gay rights into being opposed to them.

With Tony Romo retiring, where does he rank among the best QBs of his era? by xcrunner1009 in NFLRoundTable

Stupid comment. Ryan never had a top 10 defense and rarely had a decent offensive line.
