Sigh, what a disappointment.  First off it is way too long.  It could have been cut back to 6 or 7 episodes.  And, yes, the police seem shady.  But why would they kill some girl to frame Steven Avery, when killing Steven Avery would be the easier thing to do?  They're cops they can make it look like an accident.  I felt like there were things missing from the documentary.  There would be no way in hell if I was on that jury that I would have voted Not Guilty.  There were some compelling things in it.  But I felt like I wasted 10 hours of my life watching this.

I don't think anyone was saying that the cops actually murdered the girl.  They were saying that the girl was murdered and the cops set Avery up for it.  The reason I think the cops may have been involved in a set up is because they basically said that Avery shot and killed her in his garage.  While at Dassey's trial they said she was tied down, raped, and killed in the bedroom of his trailer.  So which is it?  By the way nevermind the fact that there was no blood found on the mattress or in the trailer where there would have been copious amounts of blood.  And you're not cleaning all that blood up.  It would have soaked into the mattress, carpet, underliner of carpet, etc.  There was also no blood found in the garage. 

I have a theory from what I've read and seen about the case.  I think Dassey's step-dad and brother could have been involved.  They lived next door.  They were each other's alibi and they were in the area when she could have been killed.  I think Dassey could have seen something and possibly was threatened by the step-dad and given a story to follow.  He couldn't follow the story which is why he kept changing it.  The step dad burns the body in the barrel then transfers it to the burn pit by Avery's trailer, which is why there were two places where parts were found.

Yeah call me crazy but for some reason when I watched it I felt sorry for Teresa Halbach and her family not Avery.  

Well obviously everybody should feel sympathy for her and her family.  But the controversy isn't about whether or not you should feel sorry for her and her family, rather it's about whether or not the cops put the right person/people in prison.

Oh they put the right people away and The Supreme Court agreed unless you think they are also connected to some dumb ole cops from Wisconsin.

So how does the woman get shot and killed in the garage in Avery's trial and beaten, raped and throat cut in Avery's bedroom in Dassey's trial?

I wasn't in the court room sir.  You are only seeing what the documentary wants you to see not the actual trial.  I will say this Paradise Lost was a much better film and had a killer soundtrack.  

Paradise Lost was so much worse for me to watch, I guess because the victims were 3 eight year old kids.  That case was fascinating as well but the cops fuged up that investigation too.  I just don't know how you sentence someone to die with so little evidence.  And I don't know that I'm convinced yet one way or the other on who did it.  I'm currently reading Devil's Knot which has a little bit more info than the documentary had and it seems like the case was even more prejudiced than what was portrayed in the doc.

They didn't put the right people away and Zellner(Avery's new attorney with 17 exonerations) will prove that. You obviously don't know how jacked our appeals process is if you think confirming a conviction in a higher court has anything to do with the actual facts of the case or the guilt or innocence of a person.

      Where do you fall on the Bryce Young spectrum?

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I have seen little inclination that they are laying down on him, that I can agree with. I don't think we are going to ever see much in the way of unfiltered opinions in the public realm from his teammates because that's extremely rare and extremely toxic behavior.  It's certainly a positive thing that they support him but, again, that doesn't make a successful NFL starting QB. Playing well on Sunday's does.  That is what has been lacking to date. He is not playing well consistently enough to be considered an NFL starting QB. He has to improve there. Be more consistent. Be more decisive. Make correct decisions more frequently.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      That's fine but for every Kurt Warner there are 10 Tony Banks that don't find their spot because....it never really existed.  Jake Browning was on and off practice squad teams for years until he stuck in Cincy. In his limited action over the past two seasons, he has played well enough that the Bengals panic traded for 41 year old Joe Flacco. It's easy to point to outliers like Warner or Purdy or Tom Brady as players who fell through the cracks because....well, they are outliers. The statistics over the long term have never really borne out the argument that every QB is just waiting for their perfect spot and situation. Most of these guys bounce around the league and it just never really clicks anywhere or they become marginal backup QB's. I don't think that exactly an accident. It's tough to be a starting NFL QB and it's why the hunt every offseason is so frantic. There are just so few that do it at a high level. My guess is that a theoretical market for Bryce Young(today) is going to look a lot like that post Chicago Justin Fields market. Not a lot of interest and a late round pick value at the highest. And a lot of that IS going to be his average to below average physical traits. It's extremely tough to be in that range and excel in the NFL. And it's precisely because you DO have to be closer to perfection to make up for the fact that you can't do a lot of the things that the elite to above average starters in this league do.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By Seltzer · Posted

      Im never not impressed by how confidently wrong you are. I've watched probably 200 NFL QBs play live. This talk about Bryce's arm strength is retarded, pure and simple. Bryce can make every throw an NFL QB needs to make in any circumstance. Does he have an arm that makes you go wow all the time? No, but very few QBs truly do. Bryce has plenty of zip on the ball when he wants. That TD to XL was a frozen rope. He throws to the opposite hash and outside all the time with no problem. Bryce's arm is objectively stronger than Cam's post-injury. I've seen both live multiple times and I know. And Cam could still play QB well without his rocket launcher. OPs point remains. QB success relies on a lot of nebulous things. Obviously you dont like Bryce. But his success is not going to be bc he doesn't have the arm strength. Its embarrassing this is a thing. Go to some games and actually educate yourself.
