With the U.S. and China disputing Taiwan
and the South China Sea and the U.S. and
its European allies disputing Russia com-
bined with Belarus amassing troops near
the Ukrainian border, not to mention the
long history of disputes in the Middle ...

.... East, worries about the possibility of
World War 3 are, from many perspectives,
disturbingly alarming & disquietingly pos-
sible to transpire over the coming months,
years, & decades.

I watched the following 2 videos today, &
despite the plethora of war movies & study
of those first two world wars, I had never
seen those tragic periods presented via
maps & narration in the way I viewed them
today in the following:

---
Video: World War I - Summary on a Map
18 minutes 12 seconds
https://youtu.be/QwsVJb-ckqM
---

---
Video: World War II - Summary on a Map
23 minutes 54 seconds
https://youtu.be/-CQatuQdQv4
---

Those videos didn't give number of injuries,
just deaths, and for a detailed analysis of
deaths & injuries, refer to the following:

Funny how you OT a lot but yet had the nerves to chastise another!!

Well, I guess you being the lone dork Cockroach fan in here, you must feel you own the joint.
With Cockroach fans Worldwide I'm shocked that your the one poster.
Than again you posts so much stats and other crap it's like the newsgroup is full.

I wish Pat's group had many posters..

We become complacent in being relevant and winning..
I was going to ask but you wouldn't have a clue about fans who got tired of winning.

> Funny how you OT a lot ...

Your posts, dominated with insults, for all
practicable purposes OT. Your posts on
topic only in alt.insults&bullying. My posts
are insult-free & dominated with Cowboys
topics, & when OT are clearly indicated &
of value to intelligent logical reasonable ...

.... good open-minded individuals who seek
escape from your OT obsession with insults
& bullying.

Speaking of positive OT free of insults &
bullying, Casablanca, one of the greatest
films ever made —period— this one prac-
tically set the standard for the war-torn
romance genre.
https://www.esquire.com/entertainment/movies/g3476/best-world-war-2-movies-of-all-time/

Speaking of the Cowboys, Troy Aikman say-
ing “If you don’t do anything in the postsea-
son, then you’re really, at the end of the day,
no different than the Jacksonville Jaguars
or the New York Jets that didn’t get in.”
https://jetswire.usatoday.com/2022/01/22/troy-aikman-blasts-cowboys-comps-to-jets-jaguars/

Actually, having one of the best 14 records
at least qualifies you for a try at a Super
Bowl, something Troy apparently is dispar-
aging due to his disppointment in the Cow-
boys loss, 18 teams not even getting a play-
off try, 6 teams losing their Wild Card game.

To compare the worst & 4th worst teams to
the Cowboys, Troy is deviating from reality,
but just for grins, let's compare the Cowboys,
Jaguars, & Jets in 6 draft/playoff categories:

Category ............................ Cowboys . Jaguars . Jets

2022 draft status ............... 24 ............ 1 ............ 4
1996 to 2021 playoffs ....... 15 ............ 14 .......... 14
1996 to 2021 playoff W-L .. 4-11 ......... 7-7 ......... 7-7
Years since last playoff ..... 0 ............... 4 ........... 11
Confer. Champ. games ...... 0 ............... 3 ........... 3
Super Bowls ....................... 0 ............... 0 ........... 0

Needless to say, in many respects, the Jaguars
& Jets have superior playoff records 1996-2021,
& have much better draft positions than the Cow-
boys in 2022. Cowboys superior in 2 categories,
inferior in 3 categories, equal in 1 category.
