Brooks Reed of the Texans Gave Saints Receiver Joseph Morgan a DDT

All, NFL, Snakes, Video, WWE Tim Ryan August 26th. 2012, 3:50pm

Texans linebacker Brooks Reed did whatever it took Saturday night to bring down Saints receiver Joseph Morgan. In this instance, a DDT was required to complete the mission. It’s not often DDTs are given out on a nightly basis these days, not since the torrid demise of Jake “The Snake” Roberts, so soak it in while you can.

Reed’s decision to go with a DDT also allows me to turn the conversation to the night one of Jake’s snakes went off script and bit the arm of Macho Man Randy Savage.

Ol’ IT blocking that link, that’s why I ask. I’m going to assume that is what you meant, and am ready to take flak/criticism for what I’m about to say. Fuck them, fuck people in Florida, and fuck people that live in Tornado Alley and all other places where natural disasters are not only common occurrences, but are the expected norm.
I don’t even want to hear it when shit gets destroyed and lives are torn apart. FUCKING MOVE!!! “Oh, every house within 100 miles got destroyed for the 3rd time in 3 years and my neighbors kids all died, but you know what? We’re going to rebuild in the exact same spot like we did the last 28 times this SAME FUCKING THING happened.”

Strong opinion on that Monster. I’m going to respectfully disagree. That’s what insurance is for after all. The people I don’t feel bad for are the ones who live there and neglect to properly insure their property. That’s just plain stupid in my book.

I don’t see how that’s possible. Here in Delaware we rarely flood, but if you live within 2 miles of the water, they won’t even give you a mortgage without you having insurance. So someone that lives in Tornado Alley or on the Gulf Coast, etc. etc. can live there without insurance? Makes absolutely no fucking sense.

Doesn’t cover loved ones, though. I wouldn’t care if insurance did cover everything. I couldn’t deal with the hassle of constantly having to rebuild. What I’m saying about all that is if you want to live there, absolutely fine. But if you’re going to bitch and moan about it every time it happens, move. Nobody is forcing you to live in a place where mother nature consistently shoves it down your throat.

Im 29 and Galveston/Houston has only had 3 major storms. Hurricane Alicia, Tropical Storm Allison and Hurricane Ike. 1983, 2001 and 2008. That’s not enough to justify a move up north to tornado alley and where blizzards are the norm.

We got record flooding a couple years ago, that didn’t get nearly enough national press, but other than the occasional tornado (which has rarely caused widespread damage) or hurricane remnants, Nashville is pretty free of natural disasters.

The point is that they can and do occur. So Meth’s assertion that people who live in Florida or other coastal locations are stupid and deserve what happens to them is incredibly wrong. Do they occur more in some places than others? Sure, but after a point the frequency point of the argument becomes less meaningful.

To say never get anything? You’re right about that. But there are places, like where I’m at, where it is extremely fucking rare to have significant natural disasters. In my 18 years here, I remember only 2 bad winters, we rarely have a hurricane remain full strength by the time it reaches us, every once in a blue moon if the stars align right we’ll get a small twister.

The real natural disaster would be if we the people who lived there decide to de-inhabit Florida, and we are overrun by old Jews in Cadillacs driving in the left lane at 10 mph under the speed limit.
All the sudden a hurricane looks like a treat.

Yes I can say you’re completely wrong. By your earlier logic, that you haven’t had destructive event yet doesn’t matter because you still could. Natural disasters occur everywhere. Some of them are relatively mundane (flooding, wildfires) and some are spectacular events which garner major media coverage (hurricanes, earthquakes). But a disaster is still a disaster. And indicting people for living in Florida in the broad brush manner that you did is just ridiculous.

It’s the regular occurrences I refer to. Yes, it can happen here, 18 years it hasn’t and never will happen in the annual frequency that severe weather events happen in other areas. I’m not dictating where people should live. And I said, I never meant, or meant for it to be interpreted as people deserved to die or lose everything. In areas like that, you should know better. And those who do, obviously like it enough to take the risk. So when shit happens, shut up and deal with it.

He called me out for bitching about the Red Sox trade post. It wasn’t fully accurate, since I complained there would be a “Dodgers claim Adrian” post, which means nothing since there wasn’t going to be a trade. Once there was trade rumors, I reversed and ate my crow, as appropriate.

Meth, I’m not addressing the misapprehension that others may have had about the potential for bodily harm. I’m talking more about your blanket statement that people who live where disasters have occurred and will occur again deserve to experience the destruction that they do. And 18 years is not a terribly large sample from the weather record, which in most cases extends back to the 1870s. And to chide people for being upset that their property is destroyed is misguided to say the least. I’ve got nothing further to say on this subject, but everything you’ve said here reeks of a misguided, uninformed attitude based on personal opinion and bias rather than any sort of sound logic. What you’re saying makes perfect sense if someone builds a house on the edge of a volcano that is actively shooting lava in the air. But that’s not the same thing as any other natural disaster that has been brought up here.

Not all disaster areas are equal. Some areas like NOLA had some deteriorated infrastructure that helped elevate the level of disaster. Some areas of FL are overpopulated (or just lack the highways to effectively evacuate the current population in case of a significant weather event). And there are some areas that are used to things (like parts of OH/PA/NY with blizzards. When the big earthquake hits one day and wipes out a bunch of people in SoCal, it’ll be because it’s of catastrophic proportions, not because they largely haven’t done some situational testing and watched their infrastructure.
