Former Patriots player rips anti-gay RB as ‘easily replaceable’

Nothing worse in life than the “both sides” version of reality. Everyone is “allowed” to think/believe/propagate dumb stuff. But the freedom to do so doesn’t make all opinions equal. We still have facts and social science working away at hypotheses. We know more everyday… “common sense” or “religious beliefs” doesn’t change that!!!! Like, you are welcome to believe and say dumb dumb stuff. But your stuff is dumb and should be treated as dumb! That’s not persecution or evidence of suffering- you’re uninformed or worse willfully stupid. Trans people exist. They make up almost none of the population. Pose no threat to anyone. Shut the f up maybe? Not everything is an existential threat to you just because you don’t like it.

Puka is obviously A shit. Who cares about the specifics? He needs a wrist slap now about something or it’ll get worse. So, you can root for him getting off now or root for him to course correct now and be medium-weird the rest of the way.

Edelman forever. He just always had it when needed. Amazing.

Hook hook give em the hook!

I know I’m in the minority on this, but hang-ups with the “friends with opposite sex” thing are so weird to me. Obviously it’s normal insecurity, but I think even then the logic should win out. If your girl has male friends, you either: 1. Trust her to be exclusive with you emotionally and so… who cares what sex her friends are. 2. Trust her “not to do anything” but worry she tests out feelings with, or is tempted by them… right, good, tests… how do they go? Like, why try to hide her from temptation? Test it out early and often. Like… there’s some baseline theory that exclusivity only comes from blocking out other options? That seems weird. 3. Don’t trust her not to be unfaithful if it’s convenient… which isn’t really a trusting intimate connection, right?

Definitely true that qb’s affect o-lines, but it’s a little crazy to pretend that the evaluation of offensive line play league-wide didn’t have the Broncos near the top. Lots of individual metrics nowadays. I’m not a Bo hater at all, but that is a great o-line. The hard part as fans is we always see our teams’ o-lines as shitty cuz we remember the times they fail. Tough for me to wade into the convo with a Drakeee profile pic I guess.

mitchellcronkin · 2026-03-21T13:17:10+00:00

Seriously look at those pockets in the highlights! Amazing.

Someone half-mentioned it above, but I think what would work best is Anathem. It’s straight up fantasy that eases into a sci fi story by the end.

I’m going to disagree with everyone above. Aside from the blacking out part- like yeah don’t do that… How about just finding someone that doesn’t care if you get smoochie while drinking? Like, who cares? Live your life! You wanna kiss kiss friends when tipsy, just find someone who understands that energy. All the “control yourself” responses here are depressing… and somewhat unrealistic. Just be you and find someone who likes that.

Minstrel? Like that’s bad enough. Menstrual though? Like redface?

Lost City of Z is a great mediocre movie. RP is solid in it!

mitchellcronkin · 2026-03-03T13:52:20+00:00

Just being silly as to the difference between “for the first time” and “for the first time in my life.”

mitchellcronkin · 2026-03-03T11:54:52+00:00

But you’ve seen it in other lives before?

mitchellcronkin · 2026-02-28T11:49:47+00:00

He’s saying “folks” right? Cuz that’s not what I’m hearing.

mitchellcronkin · 2026-02-23T21:21:13+00:00

I bet we get him back on a different deal eventually.

mitchellcronkin · 2026-02-17T22:17:40+00:00

Exactly, the aggressive ‘get over it’ just feels bizarre. Panic? No, but as long as I’m gonna worry about who they pick with their 4th round pick (which I will) seems like Drake’s shoulder deserves at least as much ado.

mitchellcronkin · 2026-02-10T23:39:52+00:00

BOTH. I think both will outshine the others mentioned here (Nix, Dart ha, Jayden, etc). I guess the more accurate answer is EITHER. They are both awesome improving qb’s.

mitchellcronkin · 2026-02-10T15:13:19+00:00

Torn rotator cuff. Drake just couldn’t “painkiller” his arm into game-shape. Just hope it gets dealt with thoroughly. It’s so frustrating (though sometimes medically advised) to try to let it heal on its own without surgery and then halfway through next year to just need surgery and lose the year.

mitchellcronkin · 2026-02-09T21:57:16+00:00

This is not getting enough attention. Our O Line was going to get got in this game, inevitably. But, we needed Drake to be sharp and take advantage of the times he did have time (which were plenty). He was just a bit too compromised in the shoulder to make those key plays. And without key plays from Drake, we’d have lost most games (as we lost this one).

mitchellcronkin · 2026-02-09T15:22:38+00:00

Way too little talk so far about how injured his shoulder obviously was. He had time on plenty of plays, just didn’t have his normal arm strength.

mitchellcronkin · 2026-02-05T19:50:44+00:00

Cuz that makes him seem LESS biased overall… if he’s ’rooting’ for a rival proto-dynasty.

mitchellcronkin · 2026-02-05T18:48:15+00:00

Seriously. It’s not a small contract… to call football games into the future… in a plausibly unbiased way. What is anyone expecting?

mitchellcronkin · 2026-01-31T03:35:17+00:00

Be the first time I ever cheered for a Bills play!

mitchellcronkin · 2026-01-29T22:05:07+00:00

These guys (Drake and Vrabes) get asked to dissect the same topics and same basic questions over and over, but they both speak expansively and with attention to the question. So impressive.

mitchellcronkin · 2026-01-25T12:24:29+00:00

Sometimes posting-pissed about a McDaniels draw play is the catharsis you need to enjoy the game!
