Some people are just dumb, and racist.

Why, in the hell was that woman in a mobile handicap scooter? Running into crap. Over her kids, causing commotion.

Agree, no reason she should be in wheelchair.

BUT, that is the video released by his attorney. That does not mean it is the full video. Based on that video, her claim seems absurd. Need to see the whole video though. Fact that the grand jury, who would have seen it in its entirety, indicted is indicative of missing footage.

 

[BigSteve09]

agreed. but hof worthy?

ATCQ and Outkast are 1st ballot HOF

Never been a Redskins fan but it’s pretty cool if they’re going back to DC.

Also, it’s a testament to how old I’m getting because I was at FedEx field in landover to watch them play the cowboys back in 2001 or 2002 when that stadium was almost brand new.

I was in DC 1992-2002 for law school and the beginning of my career. RFK stadium was not a safe place to go. And showing the anacostia with people on paddleboards is unimaginable.

I find it real hard to believe that area has changed enough to enter the water.

 

[Hardy]

Wow there are more rappers in the RnR HOF than I thought:

2009: Run-DMC
2012: Beastie Boys
2013: Public Enemy
2016: N.W.A.
2017: Tupac Shakur
2020: Notorious B.I.G.
2021: Jay-Z
2021: LL Cool J
2021: Gil Scott-Heron
2022: Eminem
2023: Missy Elliott
2023: DJ Kool Herc
2024: A Tribe Called Quest
2025: Outkast

I can understand Run DMC because of Walk This Way and how significant that was for both genres.
I can understand Beastie Boys because they did walk that line between both genres.
I can understand Public Enemy. And if you're going to have PE you probably have to have NWA.
Which would lead to 2Pac. And if you're gonna have 2Pac you have to have BIG.
Which leads to BIG's natural successor, Jay-Z.

After that it kind of goes off the rails.

Stop at beastie boys.

 

[JCP201]

Looks like injuries cost Bru and Pili a chance at the NFL

that's two good players. Definitely need to give both a chance.

 

[Hardy]

Stop at beastie boys.

Or after NWA. Anything after that is ridiculous.

 

[Dooby15]

Cleveland's QB room

DeShaun Watson ( who will never take another snap at Cleveland)
Joe Flacco 40 years old just there to help out for now
Kenny Pickett third team in 3 years
Dillon Gabriel will be a lifetime backup
Shedeur Sanders. Probably starts by mid season...


Sanders couldn't have picked a better spot to land...

QB coach :

 

[Ten_Titans]

I think Flacco starts at QB and Shedeur is either backup or Emergency QB at the start of the season. Gabriel will be cut...

Having three young QBs just to roll 40 year old Joe Flacco out there so he can win you five games at most would be coaching malpractice. But I don't necessarily disagree with you. That's probably what will happen.

 

[UTProf]

Stop at beastie boys.

If you do that there's no one to induct. Popular "rock" music has been dead since the 2000s although you get performers here and there that still play something similar to what was once a more defined genre. The Hall has expanded the definition of "rock" and to be fair it's not that big of a leap when you consider all the other very different styles included under the umbrella of rock prior to expanding it into more 808 bass driven music. The difference between Bob Dylan and Metallica (no offense to Dylan who really shouldn't suffer this comparison) is as big as the difference between Dylan and Eminem.

 

[PEPPERJAX]

Stop at beastie boys.

Agreed

None of the other artists on that list should be in there imo unless you want to make an argument for Run DMC or Public Enemy. The Beastie Boys started off as punk band and transitioned into rappers.

That's been the case with a lot of teams moving back downtown. Detroit moved there sports teams back downtown when many would say it wasn't safe. But, it's really revitalized the area and worked very well.

 

[GiggerVol]

If rap wants to be recognized as hof worthy, then they need to start their own hof. We already have a country music hof and a rock&roll hof. Let them create another one if they want. I know they have all started adding other genres in over the last several years but, imo, it just dilutes or waters down the whole thing.

Wow, a Grand Jury hands out kidnapping indictments? that is eye opening.

My son asked me a couple of weeks ago if I would help him open a Club. I told him that's a big headache that I don't think you want to take on. Finding a honest Bar Manager and Honest Bartender is hard to find...

Plus, Strippers aren't just happy with tips these days. They want a 401K

There's one in Carter Cty trying to build a nature reserve. I watched them on only fans for...abouuut 20 seconds and had enough.

The good old boys were snapping photos of the wife while she was working.

I know this is not the true definition, but my definition of rock and roll would mandate the use of a guitar, a bass, and drums in a majority of the music the band plays.

We need good football news DESPERATELY

Idk who needs to hear this, but you can support a team and/or coach, and still acknowledge said coach’s weaknesses. It’s perfectly fine to acknowledge that Heupel is a good football coach, but really struggles recruiting. Both can be true, and are true

It’s ok to have that opinion but what’s not alright is having someone ( you ) state it on every page in every thread you enter!
