Oh yeah, the good old JPF days! We had so many great music topics. And so many musicians that participated. John  Yes people who understood why some songs work and others don't They say, "Those who can't do... teach." Dom, instead of crapping on everyone else; Why don't you start your own "teaching thread"? Instead of whining about what this site should be... Be what you want from this site! See here we go?; now it's me crapping? If I did, people like you would not listen to me. But as I told a Brian above you would turn on me at any moment. Prophetic, much better than that fuckin loser Hal Lindsay. You're a moron .... God forgives me.
The Devil condemns me.
The atheist laughs at me.
The "Self Righteous" hold me to an impossible standard... From Babel in the Big Apple... To Sodom and California...
Just another day of coast to coast "Lawlessness" in the USA. Why can't some of us be here for the music AND the "polite" social commentary, Dom?

Brian, I'll donate a hundred bucks right now,vif we get Japov off the site permanently. Ban his ip address.
I try to help the warped minded idiot out and eventually he tries to be cool.
He offers nothing to site. ,can't write, can't sing can't play thinks he's saved which he's not
He's here to cause trouble.
He once threatened me, which we all know his face would be done in 2 minutes the little coward.

I was destroying you in an intellectual debate, which is not hard to do your brain is a walnut. You sent me a message n caps I WANNA KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE. Your right context is everything. It wouldn't make sense if I hadn't just dismantled your lame debates. I posted it immediately here, and then you deleted the threat, cause you knew it wasn't good. The hilarious part I've faced alot tougher threats in my life by people who really mean it. Go find somebody to talk to

Oooh! I like that John! Clever title, sounds like the intro to my Ebenizer song! You know it is so interesting, Dom claims I am on Martin's side because he donated, Martin claims I am on both Japov and Dom's side (even though the only thing they have ever universally agreed on is their disagreement with all the way into dislike for me) even though I do what I say, publicly and privately, and have been an open book since day one. True, many users here have BEGGED me to delete both Japov and Dom (who are VERY strange bed partners being seemingly opposite each other) and yet the person who most DISLIKES both of them is most angry with me because I didn't sell control of the site to him for $300 (nor the much larger amount given by others here, including you my friend, thank for for the first donation of the year!). So who knows, maybe once again my Facebook followers, and those who support us here (dwindling thanks to some here) will bail the board out for another go round, but until then, I have all the biggest Brian detractors right on this post, along with some of the biggest supporters. If THAT isn't divine intervention, NOTHING is right? People who agree on nothing except me, for better AND worse! What a Christmas miracle! I just saw this. So now, you the owner of this hopeless site, are taking petty sh-T public after someone has asked simply, just to be left alone. You, the owner of the site are a mean-girl cyber-bully? In between posting political, religious and hair-on-fire conspiracy videos and rants yourself. You say that you are strapped for cash to run this site. People have left? But in your mind, that has nothing to do with you? Go back and read your posts with a critical mind. I said that I would not donate to a SONGWRITER site that was run this poorly, where insults and inane arguments about incendiary topics were given free rein. Your posts (at that time) led me to believe that you were putting an end to all of that, so I agreed to give $300. Then, in short time, I'm getting unwarranted insults from a seemingly pathetic shut-in twisted personality named Tony and you do nothing about it and tell me to phuque-off if I don't like it. Because Tony has friends that are too valuable to lose. The rants, the conspiracy theories, political posts, presumably the beligerent form of Christianity...you and Tony appear to share a lot. As for me...you trapped my $300. Under these circumstances, I would have returned it. You don't , can't or lack the dignity to do that. Do you have the dignity and self-control to leave me out of the low-brow sh*t that you spew on your hopeless site? If you can manage that level of impulse control, I won't be back. It is tragic that you appear so desperate for traffic to this site, that you foster garbage threads yourself. Martin Lide

Hey, Dom... Just for the record, I DON'T GIVE A DAMN WHERE MR LIDE LIVES!  Last September. I took a motorcycle trip to Boston from Houston, on to Quebec City in a rental car. Spent two days with a childhood friend in Huntsville. Visited Muscle Shoals for some pictures of the famous studios. Ate in Florence. Fully aware that I was close to Decatur. But life has finally taught to leave freaks alone, to be someone else's problem and to stew in their own sh-t. So, I made no attempt to contact you. Ditto Tony

Oh, oh.... Wooooo... Someone please put me out of my misery  No one can put you out of your misery Tony. It's likely 75% genetic. You see the world from inside-center of a dysfunctional storm likely laced with pot and booze. From your vantage it looks normal, because you don't know anything else. But I can choose to avoid you, which is what I desire to do. Leave me out of your world.

Seriously, Marty... How many times have you said that to me? Word for fricken' Word!
ONE OF YOU NEEDS TO WEAR A BELL! I quit engaging here. I didn't come back here and bring you up. I didn't re-engage at all. Look back in the thread. You started calling my name, unprompted, unprovoked. A little Birdie emailed that I was being slammed by the knuckle-draggers at JPF. Leave me alone and I'm out of your world, and I will stay out. Tell Brian. It's half-time and my alma mater is down 14-7. Any further response will have to wait. Better yet, just drop me from your world and I will stay gone from it.

I expect a forensic psychiatrist might have a field day wading through these threads
Marty, why surface to respond when JAPOV says he does not care where you live? Dog obedience 101 When your pet Woodpile is seeking attention you are not willing to give, ignore it.
Pot or booze. Could be both, either, neither, something else...nothing at all All on his own he is aiming for just one more point of view in discussions (AKA post count) with himself My take he is like the radio talk show host stirring up listeners to call in Sometimes entertaining (most times with his music), sometimes frustratingly thinking too much, sometimes too little But damn he can write good songs and he rocks.
If writing ever becomes work I think I'm going to have to stop

Marty, why surface to respond when JAPOV says he does not care where you live? Dog obedience 101 When your pet Woodpile is seeking attention you are not willing to give, ignore it.

My sixth bowl win in a row, I wasn't aware you had interest in that. Texas defense kept them in the game long enough to have a shot in end. terrible play calling you have 1st and goal at the end. Why run backwards, I power it four times in a row get three inches each time your in. Notre Dame has been my favorite since I was a kid . Just wanna see if all are healthy. I suspect Ohio State will be a relatively big favorite. I'm gonna roll with Notre Dame, taking the points of course Worrying about NFL right now

Okay, I will talk about the game.
Am a UT/Austin grad. Defense played a great game. They kept it close. Arch Manning only got one play. In a a game earlier in the year, they clocked him in an open field run a 22 mph.
I have not understood why they haven't given him more playing time in order to disorient the defenses...but they haven't. Ewers is a textbook passer, but he cant get out of a jam and doesn't seem to see open receivers when they aren't primary.
I'm waiting for the coaching staff to call me so that I can straighten that out for them....but they never do.
Next year.
This year...Ohio State v Notre Dame. Can't get more iconic. I bet they do some remembrance of Woody Hayes. Maybe tackling a player on the opposing team or something.

Lol you shoulda seen me about hahf hour ago,I wasn't the rational cool character you're used to seeing I was literally thanking God they tried that stupid play. I know hindsight is 20/20 but if I was coach they'd be in OT right now. I like having two QBs who can play, it makes it very hard for a defense to account for different styles at different moments That said I don't think Arch is ready for primetime yet.

Sarkisian apparently doesn't think Arch is ready yet either, but when you lose to Georgia twice in the same season, may as well give him some time.

Not many teams in college football who can lose their star QB, who is already declaring for the NFL, and still be good enough to make the fbs playoffs, and still be favored over ND

My money thru most of the season was GA v Ohio State for the final. I thought I saw somewhere that Beck was going into the transfer portal?
As for UT, they barely got past ASU and that might have come down to the refs failure to call obvious targeting.
Next Year, a Manning.
I'm pulling for ND too. No connection to them. But it's Notre Dame.

So not only do you need to be talented, but you need good grades. In so doing you lose alot to more athletic teams. This year has been magic and coach freeman is gonna be a great one for a while. They're still overmatched against Ohio state, but they've managed to make the right play at right time. It's been a long time since we won a national title, well before there were any playoffs

You may find this interesting...  One of the most beautiful things written during the American Founding period is George Washington’s 1790 Letter to the Hebrew Congregation in Newport, Rhode Island. Washington had visited Newport in August of that year, and shortly after his visit, one of the leaders of the Jewish community sent Washington a letter thanking him and congratulating him on his conduct as president. Washington responded, in part: The Citizens of the United States of America have a right to applaud themselves for having given to mankind examples of an enlarged and liberal policy: a policy worthy of imitation. All possess alike liberty of conscience and immunities of citizenship. It is now no more that toleration is spoken of, as if it was by the indulgence of one class of people, that another enjoyed the exercise of their inherent natural rights. For happily the Government of the United States, which gives to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance, requires only that they who live under its protection, should demean themselves as good citizens, in giving it on all occasions their effectual support. . . . May the Children of the Stock of Abraham, who dwell in this land, continue to merit and enjoy the good will of the other Inhabitants; while every one shall sit in safety under his own vine and fig tree, and there shall be none to make him afraid. May the father of all mercies scatter light and not darkness in our paths, and make us all in our several vocations useful here, and in his own due time and way everlastingly happy.

They say, "Those who can't do... teach."
MARTYDOM, instead of crapping on everyone else; Why don't you start your own "teaching thread"?
Instead of whining about what this site should be... Be what you want from this site!
Or, at least practice what you preach...

Integrity or Duplicity?
No matter how untenable the circumstance, you can always depend upon the vast sum of participants to simply be creatures of habit; Slaves of smug complacency true to their vices.
The smallest minority are the wise who accurately anticipate inevitable outcomes... and are despised above all.

Personally, I view JPF as a personal bad habit that I now prefer to break.
Yesterday evening, I found out that I had been trolled by some guy that owns the site, back at Christmas. Looked it up, read what was there and decided to express my view of what was written about me, this site and the the author... in starkly frank terms.
That's not my true preference. My preference is to dis-engage this site and be left alone here.
I'm working on 2 songs. When finished, I may put them up here along with several other places, may not. As long as I'm not trolled, I can be counted on not to engage or interfere with whatever else goes on here.

He turned on me again three strikes your out. But, two bad days in a row for Texas. Like the Chargers -2.5. It's pretty bad when you're underdog in your home field in the playoffs. Just win by a field goal SD Ravens will spank Pittsburg. Gotta win by ten or more. Pitts coach Mike Tomlin is one of the best there is, hard for me to imagine why they have him in the hot seat. Jets, Giants, Patriots would all take him in a heartbeat. But the rout is on today in Baltimore

Love it Dom
I'm going to root for the Steelers as the underdog.
I also like the Chargers so let's call that even
Then tomorrow, Washington, The Pack and The Rams
If writing ever becomes work I think I'm going to have to stop

LOL. No point spreads. I am predicting all out wins.
The Bucs away will beat Washington The Pack's away and will beat Philadelphia The Rams at home will beat the Vikings
And Pittsburgh...well they are the underdogs you are cheering against.
Winner here gets bragging rights and if you do and want to call yourself a Proprognosticator, well I won't ridicule you for your assumption of that mantle. In fact... Loser has to post the following " I am a Produmbass for thinking I know football"
We on?

We on? Lol first of people who "know" football lose all the time cause it doesn't work that way. Point spreads even the game out, so it becomes a challenge to beat the spread. You can't win anything taking a favorite like balt without laying the points. For example , id have to pay 600 to make 100, not gonna do it, in any country. If I liked Pittsbirgh id take them to win and get 400 if I lay 100. But I don't they are gonna get their ass kicked. I won't know till tommorow what I like tommorow. It's not yesterday or the day after it's pinpointed to that one day. it's still not easy just picking the winner. But it's not worth trying. I take mostly underdogs with points of I see value. I like both favorites today. Your not winning Pittsburgh

I believe in Any Given Sunday when teams are this close. The point spread just evens things out for the bookies....not the bettors But I get it. It's not worth trying given the embarrasment you will suffer

LOL I was coming in to say something similar. Any given Sunday.
Houston defence was awesome, offence was darn good and LAC just could not get it going.
4 interceptions!
K...let's watch the Steelers take down the Ravens
Oh and I did not see much of Houston this year.
Is Stroud ever a fine QB...definitely the better one today...and 23 years old!

1 - 0 for you Dom Well one thing I hate about laying points is the possibility of a back door cover at end of game, I prefer to be the one doing that. Ravens could have blown the cover cause they took foot off the gas.no real harm in splitting other than time and stress. I noticed you picked both teams in Washington game, kindly pick ONE.... I dint know if I like all three games tommorow . More thought needed.
