If you're offended by "adult" language, dont continue. I've attached pictures of Mr. Albright. FYI- in 07 he even reached the pro bowl! To: John Madden CC: Electronic Arts Sports From: Ethan Albright Re: Being the worst rated player on Madden ‘07 Hi, John, my name is Ethan Albright. I play line for the Washington Redskins. You probably already knew that, so I’ll continue. I am writing in regards to the overall player rating of 53 that I have received in Madden NFL Football 2007. I feel that this is ******* bull**** and you should kiss my mother-******* ***. Ahmed Carroll was rated a 78 and the Packers just cut his *** on a Tuesday morning after his performance in a Monday night game. That is pretty terrible. The worst part is that his overall rating was sniffing 80. You know what, John? Two can play this game. I rate you a ******* 12. I rate you a ******* 12 in Ethan Albright Football 2000-ever… except for in the category of ball-licking. That is where I will spot you a 98 rating. You will receive this score because I will never give your blubbery *** a 99 in any category. Take that, pencil-****. Go do Al Micheals or something. Boom. It’s also pretty wonderful that my awareness rating was 59. You make it sound like I wake up in the morning, helplessly **** and piss myself, then lose three of my teeth before I discover that I am trying to eat a rock for breakfast. ****, John, I understand you saying that I am slow and lacking athleticism, but a rating like this pretty much labels me as retarded. Rod “He Hate Me” Smart has a 52 in this category. Electronic Arts is saying that seven rating points separate me and the breathing embodiment of the perfect oxymoron. Rod Smart struggled to arrange words in sentence form. Cave men had better hold of the English language. The only actions that separate point values of ignorance at this embarrassing level are things like using your own toothbrush to wipe your ***. I basically edged out Rod by my lack of **** teeth. If I take a night school class, could you bump me up to a 60? I guess I just can’t fathom the fact that I am the absolute worst player rated out of the entire NFL. ****, man, there are some ****ty guys out there. Amongst everyone, I was rated the absolute worst. I have received the impression that you feel that I am lacking in the agility category. I should consider a walk through my living room where I don’t crash through a wall or kick over furniture a resounding success. My agility rating on your game is 33. It makes it sound like I just topple over if I start walking too fast. Ted Washington is rated a 40 in agility. He is listed at 365 pounds. If Ted Washington tied a white lady up and made her wear a metal bikini, he’d look just like Jabba the Hut. John, you are such a ******* ****. I also noticed that my kick return rating was a 0. I was rated a ******* zero? So you feel that I shouldn’t even receive a 10, or even a 5? You are pretty much saying that I couldn’t even fall forward on a ball kicked in my direction. I would just stand there and let the ball bounce off of my ******* face. **** that, John, I returned an onside kick 6 yards in 2002. You should have just slapped a – 4 on me and had the EA staff ambush me with paintball guns. Finally, I would like to comment on an unlikely topic, my pass coverage ratings. I see that I am a better at man-to-man coverage (31) than zone (21). **** me sideways with a lunchbox. Where did these scores even come from? How much time is spent coming up with the pass coverage ratings of offensive lineman? Can I have that job? Let’s see here, I think that Orlando Pace would be slightly better at jumping intermediate routes than Larry Allen. While I’m at it, I can assign the passing ratings for offensive lineman as well. I can use mine as a guide. I was rated with a throwing power of 17 and accuracy of 16. Orlando Pace has a 22 power and 17 accuracy rating. Did someone at EA really put time into figuring out that Orlando Pace edges out Ethan Albright in both throwing power and accuracy? I will challenge him any day. My horrible passer ratings are of greatest misfortune to my son, Red Beard Jr. The poor boy is not only hideously ugly and covered by freakishly large freckles. He also has to suffer through playing catch with me and my senile-elderly-woman-type passer ratings. A session of tossing the pigskin usually consists of me missing my son by thirty yards in sporadic directions. I led him in front of a fire truck once and my wife kicked my ***. This is because of my 76 toughness rating. Yes, a 76 is far better than the other ratings, but I’m a ******* lineman, damn it. NFL Linemen are considered to be synonymous with toughness. According to your game, I am a retarded, uncoordinated, *****-*** ****wad that can’t fall on a kickoff, throw, or spell. I am, however, slightly better at manning up on a receiver than dropping into zone coverage. You lose your mind more and more each year, old man. **** you, John. Please expect to find red pubes in various meals you consume for the rest of your life. If you **** with Ethan Albright, you call down the thunder. Rot in Hell, Ethan Albright 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
incognito_man Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 9 minutes ago, TransientTexan said: that's debatable. most things are more efficient when there is competition instead of a monopoly. as for healthcare, there is a triangle with corner #1 being high-quality healthcare, corner #2 being universal healthcare, and corner #3 being cost-effective healthcare. you can only pick 2 corners. And the cost one is not just some artificial number you can ignore or handwave away. it has real trade-offs that can damage health and lives in other ways. additionally, is has been often shown that when taxes rise, donations to charities go down, sometimes even to a greater extent than the taxes rose. So the service provided by the tax is basically just displacing a service from a charity. there is a good book that studies this phenomenon among many other things: "Who Really Cares" by Arthur C. Brooks. The iron triangle is an observation of the current system, not an axiom of the system itself. Here's just a quick conclusion of a systemic review of single vs multi-payer systems which demonstrates that, yes, trade-offs exist (primarily elective options) - but efficiency (and humanity) is shown for single-payer systems: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30193174 Quote CONCLUSION: The single-payer system performs better in terms of healthcare equity, risk pooling and negotiation, whereas multipayer systems yield additional options to patients and are harder to be exploited by the government. A multipayer system also involves a higher administrative cost. The findings pertaining to the impact on efficiency and quality are rather tentative because of methodological limitations of available studies. I don't have anything to say on taxes vs charity as I haven't looked into that much, but it seems plausible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacReady Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 I say we let Outpost become dictator of the world. Could you imagine how much better the world would be? That would be the end of political arguments because I have all the right answers for everything. Everybody would be happy, no more sorrow.
