when the josh harnett pearl harbor came out i naively expected a tora tora tora remake. i have never been so disappointed in all my life.

FML this movie was just on a Premium Channel and I stumbled across it and watching it was like coming upon the vomited skeletal remains of a Great Horned Owl's dinner.

This book changed my outlook on history. I had the author as my professor for two semesters. He got ripped on by the History Channel in a feature for his view but the guy actually made a compelling case. 

interesting. what is his main argument re: the war that is so opposed by the history channel?

Everything that led to the events of Pearl Harbor was NOT connected to Hitler and Germany directly. When Japan attacked, it was sensationalized by our media and figureheads that Hitler was behind the act of terrorism (without too much effort to the masses -- the public had assumed Hitler was behind the attacks just like Saddam was apparently connected to the 9/11 attacks) when in reality he never even discussed the concept with Japan's officials in charge of it.

nice, i'll check it out

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
