World climate peace, i think🤔

Suuuuper Punter.
 

 

A great punter is definitely worth using one of the 5th rd picks, but he has to be able to drop it consistently inside the 20 as well as boom it.

1. Yes and the observable differences In Environment support reasons for  behavioral differences more so than genetic differences as bonobo and chimpanzee share 99.8% DNA and around the same with humans.leading hypothesis is that the reason chimps and bonobos are so different behavioral is different feeding ecologies.https://www.futurity.org/genome-bonobos-chimps-evolution-2491442/

2. Id be interested in seeing data that supports Scandinavian countries being more racist than say capitalist countries like the US.

3. And 4. Totally agree.👍

Thats not how genetics work. Or economics.

Take it up with the leading anthropologist who came up with the leading hypothesis Agreed upon by majority of  anthropologist.

Not sure about what you disagree with the  economics ?

John welbournre was good too, as was Mayberry.

Welbourne?   Come on.   He was solid, nothing more than that.  No comparison to Mayberry, Andrews or Brooks.

My memory often deceives me but I rank Kelce and Bednarik as1 and 1a. Different eras. They would be among the all-time NFL best as well, along with Otto, Dawson, and Webster.

Peters is the best OT we've ever had, and by a lot. Tra couldn't run block to save his life. Bob Brown wasn't nearly the athlete Peters was. I rank Peters among the top 4 5 OTs of all time, with Munoz, Art Shell, and Ogden. Add Walter Jones in there too.

Mike Munchak may be the best OG I ever saw.  You may recall us discussing size differences from when we were younger compared with today.  That’s what makes it hard to compare all time players.  Mike Webster was MIKE sized but absolutely gifted.  

Plus the rules have changed.  The Deacon Jones head slap was a thing of beauty but not legal now.  Imagine how Peters would have handled that. Gone is the crack back block, which was so prominent in the Denver OL scheme.

Herremans was better than Welbourne

I encourage anyone to watch 2010 or 2013 Jason Peters. His ability to set at different angles with power is incredible: jump sets, vertical sets, 45 degree sets. Then he'd get 30 yards downfield on a screen and kill a DB. Just a joy to watch.

I've taken multiple anthropology classes including primate anthropology so I'm familiar with the subject and context, not to mention my wife is a double major in anthro/ psych and write her thesis in bonobos so like I said I've read a bit, I'm by no means an expert but I thought using an article from a reputable source would support my argument 

Your claim that that's not how it works isn't very convincing.

Like I said it's not my theory or hypothesis but it is the current leading hypothesis among those experts.

Lecturing me on genetics is akin to lecturing justrelax on OL play.

the problem is that underlying asumptions on which your models are built are deeply flawed as to the science. It is a social argument pretending to be science. And your social and economic assumptions are almost as flawed as your genetic ones.

stop trying to reverse engineer an argument. Its a fraudulent method.

He was solid after he got off the juice but while in the juice he was N up and comer 

Rumors were that eagles were going to trade tea Thomas because of his bad back and move welbournre over to tackle but he was being paid as a guard and he said if one is going to move me to tackle I want to be paid like a tackle so banner traded him 

Banner was always trying cheap crap like that, works on Madden that's probably where he got the idea,sign a guy as a guard or center contract is cheaper than tackle contract then switch him to tackle and you have an under paid tackle, doesn't work in real life cuz real players aren't as stupid as Madden AI , well some are but their agents aren't😁

Mailata is Peters on steroids. Not as good at the second level yet, but same combination of elite athleticism and power - except Mailata is much longer, which gives him the potential to be a better pass blocker (Peters was 6'4 with 34" arms, normally that's a bit small for a LT, but he was so quick it didn't matter).

Not yet.   Right now, the hope is he can become prime Peters.

Agreed.

Mailata's highs match Peters...but he never had Peters' lows in his prime.

Yeah, before his back went, he was a beast. Another unholy combination of athleticism and power.

Though Bobbie Williams would have been pretty good had we the brains to keep him.

You can also make the case that Lane is the most purely athletic of all our linemen, past and present, he tested like an elite TE at the combine at 300 lbs. QB to TE to OT in college, and has steadily improved as a pro. I've always thought they should have lined him up at TE in a 6 OL formation, that would allow you to overwhelm teams on run plays, provide a stout line for Pass protection, and he's athletic enough with the TE background to create mismatches against most LBs. I'd make that my standard red zone offense and drive DCs crazy!

He was a 3 sigma OT.  Only other OL to match that was Evan Mathis, I do believe.

We could discuss the qualifications current POTUS is using to replace the retiring SC Justice....it would fit right in with CRT.

Ukraine and Russian history. You should pay close attention to the Russo-Turkish wars in understanding the conflict.  (Really the Ottoman - Russo wars.) Expect a side road discussion of the poem, The Charge of the Light Brigade.  Enjoy the reading.

Oh I'm sorry I forgot your knowledge if genes supercedes anthropologist knowledge of anthropology because why???

I can find about 10 other articles that go deep into the genetics of bonobos humans and chimpanzees and hypothesize about how they affect behavior or don't but what's the point, you'll just dismiss it as something I copy and pasted.

I'm not lecturing you in DNA and if I were are you an anthropologist, last I checked you were an immunologist or chemist or something.

Sorry but I think I'll stick with the experts on this one unless you are now going to tell me that you're actually a leading anthropologist as well or have more to offer than, I'm wrong you're correct because you say so.

Also I'm not reversing a fraudulent argument, it's not my hypothesis, it's the leading hypothesis among leading anthropologist so like I said take it up with them, I'm sure they'll be thrilled to be told their methods are fraudulent by sone random dude

Height of his punts will conflict with Jerry’s TV at Jerry World.

He was only ever solid as an OG.   Played RT for the Chiefs.  Never more than solid.   He should not be in the conversation as one of the best OGs in Eagles' history.  Sorry.

They can debate social constructs and animal behavior all they like. I wont participate or be interested because i find it largely worthless.

its not genetics. Or much of actual science really. What exactly is their testable hypothesis?
