I'm Basically Non-Violent... But Maybe It's Time For The Mike Singletary Approach

[WillyT]

Mike Singletary - Head Coach of the San Francisco 49ers:

"Our formula is this: We go out, we hit people in the mouth, No. 1.

No. 2, we're not a charity. We cannot give them the game. That's No. 2.

And No. 3 is we execute, from the very start of the game to the very end of the game."

:shrug:

Politically speaking, of course.

Alan Grayson comes to mind.

:evilgrin:

BACKBONE and Follow-Through, please!

1. LBJ and FDR fought like that

and it got us Social Security, Banking Regulation, Civil Rights, and Medicare.
So ya, it works.

[BrklynLiberal]

2. If only there had been a Grayson type of figure to run for Senator from MA!!!

[flvegan]

3. Here's the problem with that

NFL players get paid a lot of money to hit people in the mouth, etc. Our dem leaders get paid a lot to NOT do that.

See how that won't work with the group of twits we're forced to work with?

[aquart]

4. I think the "hit in the mouth" was a metaphor.

But for what?

[flvegan]

9. Oh, it is.

To be aggressive, take our wants and needs to the limit. Go for the win. Go for what's best. Smashmouth football would make for fine smashmouth politics. But I digress. We don't have that. No, not even close. You could park a fleet of battleships in that chasm.

11. Pity. n/t

[MadBadger]

5. Then you pull dowqn your pants and show us your old man ass?

[FarLeftRage]

6. I'd like to hit them in the mouth... and then some.

but the law says I can't, unless I want to be in jail...

And yes, I know you meant politically speaking...

[undeterred]

7. Mike Singletary is a sweetie pup.

[mrbarber]

8. Goddamn Obama, Alex Ross painted you as Superman.

Do you even know what that means? Does ANY democrat (outside of Grayson and Franken) know what that means?

[WillyT]

10. Kick !!!

:kick:

[taterguy]

12. Singletary's approach didn't make the playoffs

[WillyT]

15. Went Waaay Over Your Head... Didn't It ???

Whew...

:wtf:

[taterguy]

17. If you're going to adopt a violent role model, it should be a successful one

[WillyT]

19. Well Now We Know That For You, It's Winning And Losing (Sports), And Not Principles...

Noted.

:wtf:

[bobbolink]

13. Sadly, #1, #2 and #3 are the only ways to deal with BULLIES.

All of us who have been abused and victims of abuse KNOW that.

The DEM party is still acting like an abused wife who hasn't gotten what abuse is.

[WillyT]

18. Thank You !!!

Exactly !!!

:hi:

:kick:

[bobbolink]

23. Some of us can still see the Forest AND the Trees.

:hi:

[trumad]

14. Dude had the easiest schedule in the league

and still went 8-8...

[Upton]

16. BS...

Read it and weep:

49ers..8-8

Dolphins..7-9

[trumad]

22. BS?

28 out of 32 and SF only won 8 games?

Remind me who had the toughest schedule in all of football?

BTW: Last time you were in GD didn't you get kicked out?

Douche

[Bucky]

20. As a lifelong Democrat I'm much more comfortable with the circular firing squad approach.

[WillyT]

21. LOL... I'm Thinking We've Become The Obtuse Firing Squad...

Ya just never know... ya know???

:evilgrin:

:hi:
