  1. I can think of 2 possible reasons. 1) Give Dez a chance to find a new team before the draft so his options aren't as limited. 2) (more likely) That they want other teams to think we are making WR a draft priority when we aren't...
  2. Sucks it had to end like that but I can see the logic behind the move. Definitely going to free up some cash.
  3. Yes but is the "stink" real? What if Mueller comes out and says the President is cleared? Would wasting 2+ years of your life ranting about Russia have been worth it?
  4. If it doesn't lead to the president being removed from office and he gets re-elected (possible considering current approval ratings) then the amount of time and effort being put into opposing Trump is silly. Especially if it turns out he had nothing to do with Russia. Regardless, he's definitely not president after 2024 (possibly 2020). So is it worth the stress and damage to ones' personal life to be spending all day every day sharing articles and getting into political fights? It's not like you are going to convince anyone to change their opinion. Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in awhile, you could miss it.
  5. I understand that's how you see yourself but I think it's much more likely you have an unhealthy obsession about this topic and are experiencing cognitive dissonance. If Mueller doesn't find anything, you are going to look like one of the Obama birthers. There were rational and irrational people who opposed Obama's policies. There are rational and irrational people who oppose Trump. I know both Anti-Obama and Anti-Trump people who have ruined their careers and social lives over their irrational opposition. I think social media is feeding the problem.
  6. Yeah I think that's kind of obvious and it's kind of the point... What if the election was fair and all this facebook/twitter/fakenews/Russia storyline was all made up? What if Mueller clears Trump? What if Trump manages to get re-elected and finishes out 8 full years? How much of your life are you willing to sacrifice over something that is cyclical and you have no control over?
  7. I'm all for a woman to be able to sell her body but a lot of these sex workers are trafficked into the country and put into slavery. I don't think that these laws are going to do much to stop it.
  8. From the comments.. 20 strikes and you are still not out apparently...
  9. I'm fine with a straight up trade as long as Thomas signs an extension. I wouldn't want to be packaging picks along with the player swap though.
  10. https://overthecap.com/salary-cap/dallas-cowboys Over the cap has him listed as $8,500,000 savings pre June 1 cut. Post June 1.. $12,500,000 savings.. Through a restructuring we can save up to $5,792,500. I have no idea who is right but that's where I got my info.
  11. post june 1st he saves the club 12 million is my understanding... restructuring the deal could save close to 6..
  12. As much as I hate Zuckerberg, the idiocy of our elected officials (both sides equally) has also been on display in these hearings. I think the big social media platforms are just licking their chops and hoping for more regulation from these nimrods. FB wants greater barriers to entry for their business and these idiots are probably going to give them exactly what they want.
  13. I'm sure if you did some digging you'd find out that Jackson and Vick have the same agent or some shit. Talk about cliche.
  14. I probably wasn't clear enough but my stance is that you need 3 players and the defense goes from slightly below average to good. It's possible to accomplish that with the assets they have on draft day. There are still safeties the Cowboys can go out and sign if they wanted to or trade for. They can draft a 1 tech DT like Vea and the interior is fixed. They can get a Mike in the draft as well. The Cowboys play enough nickle the Mike isn't even on the field that much. Not saying it will happen but it's at least possible.
  15. I would not be opposed to this if he's talented. You can't pay every single person on that line and tie up that much money. Especially when the defense is in the shape it is in. The defense really isn't in that bad of shape. They really are a player away on the DL, LB or the Secondary from having those units be complete. If they can swing a trade to get Thomas here, the secondary is set. If they can get 1 more guy who is able to cause havoc on the DL we should be set. If they can get one more LB to emerge and fill in in case the guys we have get hurt, we are pretty much set personnel wise on defense. The real issue this team has is depth so when something goes wrong, they have a viable plan B. That and the X's and O's guys have to do a better job of making adjustments and putting these guys in the right place.
  16. Please no. They need to stop doing prequel stories. Hopefully Solo bombs hard enough that they learn that lesson.
  17. They must think that Buffalo was unable to properly utilize his skillset. QB play in Buffalo has been pretty bad.
  18. Seems odd you'd choose a Chinese telecom holdings ADR which is almost entirely state owned (only 0.9% by institutions). It's not like there is real price discovery when it's almost entirely owned by the state. Seems like you are lying. I can't speak for dsa but I know i'm not having any problem in that department. I do have a problem with cloakroom spill over and cheering when people are losing money in the stock market. It's childish behavior and I have no problem calling out our resident bot (740 fucking posts already not including his socks) for doing it.
  19. Webpages are the past anyways. Escorts moved to social media a while ago.
  20. No, it certainly doesn't. Just recently, they have managed to do better in the draft, mostly because Jerry is no longer running things. Only point I was making is that we shouldn't be expecting every 2nd+ pick to pan out. That's a great article that everyone should read. +rep
