Mr. Von Miller - Any Interest

[FoutsFan]

Love Rivers....but my opinion....just an opinion...too many people on this earth...9 kid families sound like fun...but is it the right thing to fo for the future? Finite space and resources on this little rock god gave us....figure his fingers are crossed, hoping we'll figure it out....

You and I have very different definitions of "fun."

Indeed. I concur.

Indeed. I concur.

I dont mind anyone having 9 kids if they are paying for them like we know Rivers has the money to do so. That being said 3 kids have been plenty, I could not imagine having 9 let alone calling it fun.

PR17 oldest is 18 and youngest is 1
He recently said “I think really, it was just whatever God’s will was,” Rivers told the Indy Star in September. “We were just open. Certainly didn’t have a number on it. Still don’t.”

So if the argument is population control.....
Then Rivers with 9 kids and no number on when to stop is also selfish and irresponsible, correct?

To play devil advocate I could argue if you had more mom's with these kids they would all get more attention from a mom. Instead of split attention 9 ways from just one mom.

:dunno:

you convinced me.
now i just have to explain this to the wifey haha

the overpopulation issue requires a variety of ethical solutions ...
lots of good foster youths can sure use good foster parents, pass it on.

Many Western birth rates are declining. Foster care isn’t for everybody and I’ve coached a lot of foster kids in baseball and many are a challenge I can imagine what it’s like at home. Lots of gay couples taking that on.

haha believe me, I know
I don’t recommend fostering for everyone
Simply pointing out that it’s a need for many many good kids who’ve been dealt a bad hand
and that can also help the overpopulation problem in that good would-be parents can choose to foster an alternative to procreating.
I hope that wasn’t too political or controversial a take.
either way, just wanted to clarify and I’m done with off topics

Von Miller - if healthy, on the cheap - Might give him a call
my guess a team like the Raiders will sign him because it will be splashy sign -- oooh we signed Von Miller
Adam Schefter bomb
players on twitter with the "eyes" emoji - and all that

Sign the player for who they WILL BE - not who they WERE!

(Not my money and honestly - for the right cap hit this year, I am more intrigued by JJ Watt than Von Miller - even if you have a bit of dead money in 2022 or 2023)

The major prophet, builder of the First Temple of God, and famously wealthy and wise King Solomon of Israel had 700 wives and 300 concubines.
opcorn:

Genghis Khan: 300 concubines huh? Hold my Mongolian Broccoli Beef.

Man if we can get 2 good years out of VM that would be great...but likely too pricey.

VM may not be popular right now, but a speed guy like Miller would be a great compliment to Bosa coming off the other edge.

I am in now way trying to diminish a series of bad tweets he might have sent to his GF or whatever about the pregnancy. But from what I have read, its not Greg Hardy either in terms of abuse. So until I see other wise, I am not discounting him for that. If anything, I am discounting for "Age + Dollars" - meaning does he want to get paid for being Von Miller in the past or is he open to a reasonable contract like Spotrac had something like 30/3 that can be worked for cap reasons.

Good point. Speed kills. "Start me!!"
