2012 FA/Trade ideas thread (and CSSTL's never seen Dumb & Dumber)

[DESERTDWELLER]

Based off of what ive seen, weed ruins lives, alcohol ruins families. I dont think weed is the problem, rather the individual abusing it. Alcohol on the other hand is the worst thing you can put in your body as it directly impacts every organ in your body. I think the bigger issue is people abusing each substance. Just a neutral opinion towards this heated debate. Dont drink much and have only smoked 4 times throughout my life.

I can agree with this statement. Good post, BearD0wn.

I used to smoke herb every breakfast, lunch, & dinner. Sometimes even for a mid-night snack. Now I smoke a little less, but still smoke nearly everyday.

Many ex-gf's of mine hated the habit, hence the reference "ex". Does this mean that the weed was the problem or the problem was the opinion of my ex's?

I heard that there is a thread about FA or trades the Bears should make.

Don't even ******** and say you want it legal for those reasons. You want it legal because you want to use it, which is fine, but don't hide behind medical uses. Morphine helps FAR more people FAR better than Weed ever will or can medically, that doesn't mean just anyone should be able to buy it.

Again, I think it should be legalized too, but don't give ******** reasons as to why. You say "don't want to legalize because they don't know anything about it" while using reasons that make no sense in the way that you wish for it to be legalized.

That's because morphine is highly addictive. Not the same argument can be made.

It should be legalized because all of the ****ing money spent on fighting it is a total waste. But personally, I couldn't care less. I can find it, whether it is legal, medicinalized, de-criminalized - whatever. Its gonna be there. So we should stop spending loads of money to combat it.

That's not the point. The point is that almost everyone who claims to want it legalized for medicinal purposes is completely full of ****. They want it legalized because they want to smoke it. If it's only legalized for medicinal purposes then it's not going to make it much easier (if at all) for them to get and use. And it would still be illegal for them to do so. I don't like when people use that excuse when it's clearly not their actual motivation for its legality.

I wasn't making the argument based on WHY one is illegal, just that something being legally medicinally doesn't mean you can just all of a sudden do it legally if you don't need it.

The point is that everything is bad in excess. Users who abuse things, anything, are hurting themselves. Very, very few things are just inherently "bad for you" in and of themselves. Alcohol included. Weed included, morphine included. Etc. Etc. Etc.

True, most of the 'patients' use anxiety as their condition, as I did when I had a card. Everybody has anxiety, so it is kind of a joke. If they did crack down and only prescribe to serious conditions then about 95% of the 'patients' would be SOL

What are you talking about? He said that it's not used for any good and I gave reasons it is. At what point in my statement did I use those reasons for me personally wanting to legalize it? I have already given my reasons, to stop spending money on trying to prevent that particular drug and focusing it on others like Meth, Coke, Heroin. You know, the ones that people actually OD on and die from everyday? Not to mention the MILLIONS we spend keeping marijuana related offenders in jail. It's just stupid, thats why states are starting to decriminalize it and make it a ticket. This country could make a lot of money taxing the **** out of it and monitoring it like with Alcohol and Tobacco. Also, you don't inject weed into your veins so how is it possible to compare the two? That's honestly a terrible argument.

Boom, thank you!

Ok..

I love debating the most. As a guy that doesn't smoke weed anymore, but does support it. Because its trough I want a release sometimes and I become a raging lunatic when I'm to drunk and cool as the other side of the pillow high.

It never destroyed my life and I built and 50 million a year company during it.

With all that said. It's time for free agent thread ideas like JR is talking about. Lets talk about this crap in our igt where we want posts. Lets try to talk about the last if the trade deadline here.

By no means am I the guy that's trying be cool by saying c'mon guys. But I think it will be fun to do some research and take some guesses when can debate In trades. Besides washed up WR's

That cool?

So I am so happy with our entire d-line finally.

Steltz backing up either safety spot I'm cool with, also Hayden can fill a role there as well. Keep in mind Hardin there for next year.

I want to change nothing on the corners.

Roach playing his best year, so no changes in LB. but decicco still out there trying out for teams.

Decicco or j.t. Thomas? Is a question

Emery looks like he no problem picking up troubled or ped problem guys. I'm thinking draft steals there.

I really think we are set across the board unless something blockbuster happens with a o lineman somehow.

Thoughts?

[giventofly]

Can I have 50 million dollars...?

[mikebrez bears/]

Can I have 50 million dollars...?

In about 100 years as a 6% net margin on that yearly doesn't equate to much.

[giventofly]

I only understood two words in that sentence. Do you mean you'll pay me 6% of your company's earnings every year?

[mikebrez bears/]

If I could only throw many around like that anymore. Obama has killed me so far. I struggle to pul 250-300k Myself take home now. Considering my condo mortgage is 15k alone the water is starting to cover my mouth let alone neck. I wish someone would buy my other two season tickets from me with the psls bad

[CubbyBlue2009]

You a small business? If so, that explains Obama ****ing you over lol.

Yeah really anything under 2 billion in revenue is. The fact is my target market as is most companies are the people with money... Baby boomers. They don't like Obama for obvious reasons and economic reasons so they sit on their cash, and that's what kills small business. The left side has just never got that. The 68-88 year people truly spin a lot of our economy.

Republicans know that we'll, because that's who they are. Guess I don't need to post how I'm voting.

Up until last year I was going to buy as many tickets in the club as possible and invite all of the forum. So far I've only been able to be csstl. I need an up swing badly.

Sorry to hear that man. And I completely agree. You know who I'm voting for.
