There's no comparision with Chad here. When fit he was already a proven commodity at the Jets...

Even when fit, his arm was a proven noodle...he couldn't throw the ball 40 yards if he was standing on the roof of a very tall building.

Arguably the best QB you have had since Marino was a QB you picked up after the Jets cut him.  He was your only significant upgrade and you went from last place in the league to winning the division.

There's no comparision with Chad here. When fit he was already a proven commodity at the Jets, he led them to the playoffs a couple of times and was comeback player of the year. At times he was the NFL's passing rater leader, and completion percentage leader. We bought him in as a starting QB and to tutor Henne.

Wilson was an outright failure at the Jets. He held a clipboard all last season as a third stringer for the Broncos. He's been brought here specifically as a backup option, nothing more.

Wow.  You went from constitutional rights in sentence one to imprisoning people for being poor or because of beliefs.  You do realize the 1st, 5th and 14th amendments are apart of the constitution.

Exactly the point.

I expect our CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS to not be trod on.   Because last I checked, the Constitution was not written with hurt feelings taken into consideration.   That being said, perhaps we should build more prisons for the poor.  Better yet, build more prisons for the leftists.   Everyone there has equal housing, equal treatment, free food, free healthcare, and no one has a gun except the guards.

Yeah, that's the point: y'all don't give a shit about anyone else's feelings, yet expect your own feelings to be treated at all times like the most delicate silk.

Again, this is what made Pope Francis unusual: unlike the extremely loud American Catholic authorities who seem to focus on all sorts of imagined slights without a word to say about the poorest and neediest in our society, Pope Francis seemed to be sticking up for the downtrodden.  It's not enough to make me a fan of the Catholic Church, but I was a fan of his.

Failed Jets QB - check
7th round draft pick - check.

When you have an article saying that our 7th round draft pick is a good chance to beat out our second stringer on a good chunk of guaranteed money... where does that sound strangely familiar?

We are still all in on Tua being healthy this season, and hoping like hell the most action both these guys see is holding a clipboard gameday.
Oh please. You're being much too hard on the Dolphins, especially the QB room. If you think Wilson and White have anything in common other than both being QB's, you don't watch football. Wilson has more arm talent than White has in his entire body. Wilson did about as well with the Jets that Aaron Rogers did considering the WR's he had. While no one will mistake Rogers for the same QB he was a few years ago, he's still a good QB, but everyone looks average in a Jets uniform. I'm not saying that Wilson is gonna be great, but he's a capable starter. White has never been anything more than a backup his entire career and not really even a good one at that. The jury is still out on Ewers. I really have no idea what makes anyone think he can surpass Wilson on the depth chart though, he's a project at best. He might be able to develop into a decent starting QB in the NFL, but that's probably a year or 2 down the road at best, but I'd rather see him start for the Dolphins than White. At least Ewers has the look of an NFL QB if not the playing ability yet, I honestly don't know what anyone saw in White. I had high hopes for him when we first got him, but it didn't take long for those hopes to be dashed as soon as I saw him play.

Obviously not but it doesn't' make me lazy. It' makes me someone who has earned something.
The mere mention that poor people almost always have harder work is immediately interpreted by you as an accusation of "laziness" on your part.

It would be one thing if your position was that every job in our society needs to be done by somebody and we shouldn't pit people against one another as some sort of "who works the hardest" competition, because all work deserves respect.  But that's not it at all!  There is not the slightest doubt in your mind when y'all proudly declare how you work much harder than all these day laborers making minimum wage.

See, I have no problem happily acknowledging that my much-higher-paying job of today is FAR easier than the low-paying jobs of my youth, working retail or in a call center.  I've put in decades of work and - with a bit of good fortune, as well - have earned my way up the ladder.  I see no shame in conceding that I don't have to work as hard today as I did when I was younger and making less money.  That's the GOAL: work less, make more!

But you seem unable to settle for that arrangement, and are stuck clinging to the idea that you also somehow work harder now; that it's offensive to say that someone making less money than you actually works harder than you do today.  It's ridiculous.

I honestly don't give a shit how you feel

Canada's government was quite unpopular until Trump fired them up. Not sure of the climate there but he basically created a push back on anything conservative in Canada.

Trump is very unpopular here, with the major reason being his favoritism of Putin and trying to blackmail Ukraine into surrendering - his stance with tariffs causing world chaos hasn't gone down well either.

Any party or individual trying to whip up any kind of MAGA sentiment are finding themselves about as popular as a fart in an elevator (with the notable exception Murdoch's media empire who love them).

Miami spent most of this draft on the defensive line, next year will be the offensive line, and the year after that will be when all those picks have had time to earn NFL experience.

We still need to rebuild the gutted defensive secondary, so addressing our needs on the defensive side of the ball are far from over. Ramsey will be gone, Kouhu is on a one year contract, so unless we extend him early, he's likely to be too. That's where the blown picks of Noah and Cam Smith (to replace X and Ramsey) have really hurt... we also need to work out what we're doing with Phillips.
