Is Communism a form of religious belief?
Is Communism a form of religious belief, where instead of seeing God’s hand at work in all things, one sees the class struggle? When historical events are re-interpreted from a Communist viewpoint in a discussion with non-Communists, is the effect the same as when believers re-interpret historical events as divine intervention, in a discussion with atheists?

Wisdom or Rubbish? A Thread for Evaluating Famous One-Line Nuggets of Advice.
Post your favorite--or most hated--one-line maxim or saying or quote or *insert another synonym here.*

The next person to post will then say what they think of your posted saying, ie, Wisdom or Rubbish and why, and post their own little one-liner. Repeat until hell freezes over (or we get bored...or we devolve into a name-calling contest...whichever comes first...ha, as if it's a question which will come first...)

Rank falling dramatically
So, one day my rank said that I was in the top 62% and I was considered a member... but then randomly it fell to the top 92% and now I'm a casual player. I didn't draw, win, lose, survive, or resign any games in between this period. Why did this happen?

Draws in PPSC
I was wondering to myself why the pot is split evenly in a PPSC draw. I thought it would make more sense, and make things more interesting, if the draw ended the game and dealt out the points each player is currently "worth" in the game.

NFL Pick 'em--PLAYOFF EDITION...12 TEAMS, 1 GOAL...IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN!
The Chargers are the last team standing in that crazy race for the 6th seed in the AFC. Aaron Rodgers rained all over Da Bears' parade, leading the Pack to victory and setting up another classic Niners/Packers clash...only this time, at Lambeau Field. A typical Cowboys/Eagles clash ended in the typical Cowboy way...but it was Orton throwing the season-ending pick this time. The NFC: SEA, CAR, PHI, GB, SF, NO. The AFC: DEN, NE, CIN, IND, KC, SD. The Playoffs...PICK 'EM!

Thank you PE for ranking Flacco where he should be. But please, Eli is better than Dalton.... at least when he's not throwing off his back foot
bo_sox48 (5202 DMod(G))
07 Jan 14 UTC
And Matt Stafford is better than Philip Rivers when he's not throwing sidearm, but, in typical Stafford style, he threw a shit ton of sidearm interceptions.

"5. Luck (he's easily in the top four in the league if he plays with Brady's or Manning's crew out there)

I'd take Newton or Russell Wilson over Luck any day at this point, especially Newton--great arm, and a running QB...the one thing Luck has over him is playoff experience, but he doesn't have that much that Cam at that.

6. Cam Newton (did you just forget him or are you really dumb enough to leave him out?)

Nope, I had him RIGHT NEXT TO RUSSEL WILSON on my list...I may only be able to count to 6, but apparently, you can't read. :p

7. Rivers

Five years ago I might have agreed, but like Big Ben, Rivers' biggest years are likely behind him...he had a great year this year, but that only barely gets him back into the Top 10 at that in my book--if we wins at Denver this Sunday, though, that can change.

8. Matt Ryan (Joe Flacco is not better than Matt Ryan, nor is Kaepernick, who is a really shitty quarterback without an effective read-option game)

Bahahahaha...Matty's been Iced in the playoffs, 1-4, and that one win was the game Pete Carroll basically botched last year for the Seahawks by screwing up the last-minute timeout. By contrast, Kaep is 3-1. Matt has 9 TDs vs. 7 INTs to Kaep's 5 TDs and 3 INTs, but Kaep also has 362 rushing yards in those games.

And Kaep is way down the list of QBs I'd take over Ryan, I've already said Wilson (who you have next) and Flacco (who, hey, had a good playoff run last year...and I'll take that over 1-4 Matty Ice any day.)

9. Wilson

10. Nick Foles (119.2 QBR over this past season is tough to argue with - second highest in a season in league history going back to the merger)

(One year, in a soft division, and he didn't do well in one playoff loss? Let's see how he does next year before anointing him to the Top 10.)

Honorable mentions - Tony Romo, (If you want to go 8-8 and lose on the last drive of the season every year...like I said, most overrated QB...I wouldn't mention him in this company even in an honorary capacity--and Flacco and Kaepernick deserve that honor far more than Romo for, well, winning in the playoffs and, well, getting to the playoffs...and Dallas fans would be the first to admit a Super Bowl appearance/win catapults those two over Choke-Time Tony.)

Jay Cutler, (As streaky as they come)

Alex Smith (I agree there.)

Joe Flacco and Colin Kaepernick are not good enough to make this list. (See above)

Matthew Stafford and Andy Dalton could be someday. (Stafford maybe, Dalton I have serious doubts about right now.)
obiwanobiwan (248 D)
08 Jan 14 UTC
I'd also say of Matt Ryan--

Julio Jones went down, and there went the season for Matty Ice...

By contrast, as much as I can't stand the smugness of the Golden Boy...

He deserves it--lost Gronkowski, a bunch of receivers have come and gone over the years, but Brady ALWAYS gets the job done no matter who he has to throw to.

Well my stream got cut out with 20 seconds on the clock, a quick google would suggest that the Brees ending Hail Mary failed.

Seahawks are going to the NFC finals, now its time to go watch my Pats destroy the Colts.
