Neo

As intended ... imagine, an outrage that requires no assembly! I know you're teasing.

I am laughing at +/- 7 people giving guidelines and rules for social interaction that would be applicable to 330 million people in in unmeasurable number of circumstances. I am cringing at the establishment of tribunals and dual justice systems, each empowered to assign consequences, adjudicating the interactions. I am crying while thinking of those infinite combinations and permutations of human beings and interaction, subject to dual justice systems, applied in the United States on campuses that co-mingle 18 to 22 year olds with new found autonomy, human desires and booze. I am grateful I lived much of my life before the lunatics took control of the asylum.

In with Craig Ramsay, and so happy about it.

Upon further review, I agree.

In defense of Hoss, but with respect to GoPre, my prognostications, suppositions, and hypotheticals would make some pretty funny post fodder ...

The alarm was ringing ... I startled ... wha, what, where? "It's time to get up, Neo ... c'mon, school today!"

This is the "toughest" Miami team I've seen in 44 years. OL and DL. True football ..

Big time out usage

If Shady had a setback, playing him was unwise. If the medical staff concluded no setback was likely, but instead the hammy "is what it is", that's bad news. I can't imagine he'd be cleaed if rest would've done much good. I fear a lingering, debilitating, hamstring all year.

Ajayi looks like Marshawn Lynch.

Dareus is being mentored and stretching at home ...

Shoved down throats ....

What a tackle.

The very next play!!! Let Goodwin be Goodwin.

Where's Anthony Lynn? Weaponless, came the reply.

Man, that was almost "nuts" in targeting and launching. I don't know Landry from Adam, but man. Godspeed, AW.

Phew ... that's comforting. If one reaches for his wallet, there's little chance of significant disciplinary action, and only a low risk risk for an embarrassing public warning. Thank heavens for due process! Kangaroos have their processes. What's the raison d'être for the court?

I read about universities and their commitment to due process. Our Constitution calls for it and our laws reflect the Constitution. I'll pause here for the "it's not always perfect" commentary and add "nothing is". .... .... There, pause complete, I continue .. I'd ask the university what rationale exists to establish a parallel justice system for activity that is a crime? Why are lower standards of evidence required? Why are certain defenses excluded? Why are some crimes adjudicated in this separate system, and some crimes not? Asked another way, what is missing in the criminal justice system such that sexual assault, one heinous crime among others, demands its own tribunal, excludes certain defenses, and has lower standards for guilt? I have my suspicions of well intended, ill informed, individuals. It rhymes with "we're not seeing the outcomes in the criminal justice system that our narrative demands so we'll create another system and stack the deck." I attended two freshman orientations with my kids. I saw sexual assault discussed by a panel, role played, and acted out in a small play/performance. Afterward, I feared more for my son than for my daughter. My fear had nothing to do with my assessment of his profound and fundamental goodness. Cue Skippy. Had Patrick Kane been a football star at UB, and not an NHL hockey player outside the university system, what would his plight have been? What would Eleven's fate have been at UB?

Impression ... the Buffalo / Rochester roundtrip is busy only four or five games into the season.

Put a helmet and flack jacket on. I refer you to the "Excoriation of JJ" thread and its twin, the "Standing Against the Righteously-Wrong Tide" thread. Your hypothetical was slut shaming and victim blaming a short time ago. Well, it wasn't really shaming or blaming at the time any more than it is today, but that's another matter ...

When I first saw the thread title, I thought we might be discussing "three guys who think high quality NHL centers are critical to my well being."

Big Dave. I could've gone Ramsay. What a story. "I want to be free."

Presumptuous DEFENSE of Hoss ... he may have been asking if I meant "incidents like you describe" include both accident and accusation. I was referring to the accident, alone. The after-math is seed into fertile ground. I can't assign proportions.

In reverse order: The latter - we both agree this is true. The former - I'll let you read Eleven's tale and debate with him. He may object to to the conclusion that his "archaic view" had anything to do with his plight or his description of same. For clarity: I hope it's clear that not each of the 1,000 accidental bumps turn into an accusation. Was that the disconnect? That wouldn't be archaic, but it would be "reading into a sentence that which was not there". See my next post -

Good names. Is Luce in the running?
