Dallas Cowboys 2019 Season Thread -- Aaaah Zeke Out?
Because you keep trying to put this regular season loss into some sort of historical context. Because you're outraged that form didn't hold in a league where preseason predictions are worthless and half the playoffs teams didn't make the postseason the year prior. It's not a franchise altering loss. Or maybe you're right and ESPN will make a 30 for 30 about the game.

It's the NFL dumbass. Why are you so preoccupied with preseason expectations in a league where half the playoff teams turn over every year?

If BaD Radio isn't on from 3-7 p.m. ...
Eh, aside from Gordo and BaD radio, everyone on this thread seems to dislike the station. Anything that keeps Craig Miller from being smug and cunty about their ratings superiority is fine with me.

I'm An Alcoholic
@trophI can only relay my experience with someone close to me who was in a similar condition as your friend a few years ago. This guy was a 1st ballot HOF alcoholic and in his mid 40s wound up in the ICU sedated in a coma for a week. Liver failure which led to renal failure, jaundiced, and retaining fluid in his abdomen. He came out of the sedation after a week and it took some time for the encephalopathy to clear with round the clock dialysis. After which his liver doctor told him his drinking days were over, that he would die without a new liver, and he would be on dialysis until he got a new organ. His MELD score was in the high 30s. He wasn't an AA guy either. Despite the best efforts of people in the program coming to talk with him, he was too hardheaded to admit defeat. Impressively unreasonable even for an alcoholic. He remained dry for the next 12 months because he was physically incapable of basic tasks including transportation. Sobriety was a choice made for him but he still thought he was in control. We buried him about a year later. His body just couldn't recover from the damage he had inflicted and started shutting down just when we were getting hopeful. He left behind a wife, a beautiful child, and lots of people who cared about him. We alcoholics are prone to insane thinking and can be quite pugnacious when someone starts lecturing us about our booze. If he and his husband don't listen to his doctor when they read them the riot act, then dead man walking is a certainty. This is not a speedbump to endure before they can make a few changes to their lifestyle. I don't have any experience with an interventionist but I think that has a better chance of success than a social worker assigned to your friend. He needs a hard, pipe-hittin alcoholic to get through to him. I'd also encourage the husband to attend some Al Anon meetings though he could be a candidate for AA himself.

Dallas officer kills man after mistaking apartment for her own, police say
The prosecutor has to hammer the fact that there was no element of surprise. She noticed the door was open, that there was movement inside, and she chose to confront the "intruder" without confirming she was in the right place. Her claim that she found herself in extraordinary circumstances, fearing for her life and forced to make a split second decision is laughable.

Your bottom is whenever you decide to quit digging. There is a solution. Go to a meeting When the meeting chair asks if anyone is there for their first, second, or third meeting, raise your hand Listen See if you can relate to anyone's story in the room Talk to people after the meeting Go to another meeting You don't have to feel this way ever again.

Well you have to make a roster move to add Quinn to the 53 coming off his suspension. What player do you sacrifice to give Taco his one showcase game?

I'm An Alcoholic
Many many "fresh start weeks" were postponed because I had half a bottle of scotch left over by Monday morning. There were thirsty people somewhere that my conscience wouldn't let me forget about.

Been there. I strung 3 months together once. Started working out again, felt great. Back then I thought I could control it going forward. It didn't last. That was a long time ago. I don't have any interest in bullshitting myself anymore and I really like being sober. Stick around. There are some smart pissheads in this thread.

So...about Charlie Strong at USF...
So what's the excuse for the Dresden campaign Charlie is inflicting on the USF program now? Did he inherit another impossible situation from Taggart?

Dallas Cowboys 2019 Offseason Thread of Mediocrity
Not particularly close? There are 32 GMs in the league that would trade Zeke for any one of Donald, Mack, and certainly Mahomes in a second. If only running an NFL team were like fantasy football. And then we could hire a recent Madden champ to be our OC.

Hate to break it to you but Zeke isn't the best player in the league.

Dallas Cowboys 2019 Offseason Thread of Mediocrity
Well there was that episode where a pseudo celebrity DJ got knocked out in front of a club. If you're going to advocate for signing Zeke, stick to his productivity on the field. The guy is a 24 karat retard who makes terrible decisions and the concern about him self destructing is perfectly reasonable. Christ, you're arguing how valuable he is because the team only went 3-3 while he was suspended.under the personal conduct policy.
