we always hear about quarterbacks who get sacked a lot- can you think of any who rarely got sacked?
past or present? the only ones i can think of are marino,fouts and manning.peyton manning-not his dad.
peyton manning. tom brady, joe montana (except for that one in 1990 in the nfc title game), terry bradshaw (in his prime, when he came in he got leveled and when he got out, it was the same way), troy aikman (except for his last few years), phillip rivers, and list could go on. it is not about statistics over a career because a qb could be on his back alot one year, but standing tall the next. it really depends on the o-line and the offensive schemes. even dan marino spent a couple of years where he was running around (remember all the padding he used to wear in the late 90's).
when u do well but not well enough.or when they hate the other team. do you have concerns ( which previous generations more commonly had ) about whether a dad ought to be rough and toughen the lad up versus being nurturing and pleasant ? <br><br>not that long back the latter was the norm - it didn&#39;t do growing boys any good, and often left them confused, and experiencing difficulties in demonstrating the gentleness that is so much a part of manliness, which doesn&#39;t solely consist of being rough and tough. <br><br>how did your own father relate to you ? often, in ways we don&#39;t altogether realize, the model of how to be fatherly is one we absorb from what we see and experience. if i may be permitted. i have worked in politics for over 30 years, including time as a legislative director and/or press secretary for four members of the house and - via the u. s. commission on security and cooperation in europe - two senators. my credentials and my sins thereby confessed i offer the following - 1) senate majority leader mitch mcconnell. though not an ideas guy, he is a shrewd and effective parliamentary operator who knows the senate rules perhaps as well or better than any senate majority leader in recent memory. temperate and highly effective, he is a superb coalition builder with an exquisite sense of timing. 2) senator john neely kennedy. also not necessarily an ideas guy, though solidly grounded in his principles, kennedy has a rapier wit that he is not afraid to deploy against both sides. an acid tongue, he calls 'em as he sees 'em, and yet somehow manages to maintain - maybe it is the southern accent - an air of civility and reasonableness. 3) senator ben sasse. a former college president, sasse is one of the most intellectual and thoughtful senators. a man who takes ideas seriously and who understands the consequences of ideas. he is the soft-spoken - and frankly much underestimated - intellectual giant of the senate. 4) senator joe manchin. from west virginia, manchin is a temperate thinker and coalition builder. not given to inflammatory language, he seeks balance and compromise. 5) senator dianne feinstein - although lately i must admit her conduct has disappointed, generally feinstein sticks to her principles - which i, more often than not, do not share - but does so in modulated tones and thoughftully. no fire breather, she makes her case soberly and intellectually. (though to add, of late, some of her actions - particularly in recent kavanaugh supreme court confirmation - have not been at her historically high standard.) 6) former representative trey gowdy - actually, not an active politician any longer and is now a fox commentator, gowdy is a former criminal prosecutor and house member. he knows the law better then most know there own name and brings to his thinking a piercing intellect and consistency of principle like few others. he is sorely missed by me in the house. suffice to say, i could go on, but those figures stand out as my, "if you wake me in the middle of the night and ask me out of the blue, these pop to mind" answers. however, my experience in politics is that, contrary to also the populist contempt, most of those who go into politics are intelligent and civic minded, hard working and eager to make the country better and the people they serve happier. like any large group of human beings, they have their foibles, none are perfect and some are downright awful. however, overall, the american public gets better than it appreciates. hugh beaumont. i've always had a thing for older men. though this actor isn't alive. but when he did leave it to beaver... man so sexy... i also like that he was religious in real life. he also didn't kill anyone in ww2 which is super smart. like he got out of killing during the war my brother-in-law never had any problems. my father's mother did, however- nasty ones- and so she decided to be nice to all her daughters in law (she had four sons, so she wouldn't be lacking), and so my mom had little experience in being nasty. i think the stereotype probably exists for a reason, but it's still a stereotype. never keep throwing the past in someone's face. That's like slapping someone in the face with every little mistake they are trying to still heal from day to day. that's abusive. probably why she held a lot of resentment seeking out comfort from another man.   
another thing is. the on and off shananagens is due to lack of trust and lots of selfishness.   
if you're ever in that position again. learn from it.. always bring someone up no matter what mistakes they're making. 2 wrongs don't make a right. always be the better Samaritan.  
children will always be a sticky situation. always make good choices that suite what you want and what you're mentally, physically and financially mature enough to handle.   
May the force be with you!!! i miss the ngage. current phone games suck. "i may not be the smartest or most experienced person you will interview today, but i will work the hardest." I think when he said he was a playboy he might not have been lying. He might just not be mature even though he's 40 and while he might be good with monogamous he might not be into having a serious relationship. I tend to attract younger men too. It hasn't been really anything I openly pursued I just look younger on a good day. I haven't gone out with any younger because the men who seemed interested fell just below the 40 year mark or I think they were younger than 40. It's hard to tell sometimes round robin
