Resolved: Tom Brady is a better quarterback than Peyton Manning
I know you just debated this, but that debate was pitiful. I hope we can have a intelligent debate.Round one will be just be accepting this debate. I would only ask that there are no new attacks made in the final round (new rebuttals to arguments made in the previous round are ok)....
tom brady is better than peyton manning
i think tom brady is better than peyton manning because not only does brady have 3 rings to manning's 1 and brady has had more success in the playoffs then any other qb in history...
Experts Tier round 2: Is there any hope that the US can eliminate its national debt in our lifetimes
I thank Imabench for accepting this debate topic as our Round 2 for the Experts Tier of the tournament. There are to be no semantics. Since both of us are young (low to mid 20's) "our life time" will reflect the time it takes to die of old age. For the math of this debate, we shall use 70 years (two people living to their low to mid nineties might actually be low-balling it, but it perfectly reasonable). It is entirely possible that both of us could die in the next 5 years, but we shall go wi...
Experts Tier Round 1: Should children be able to run for office?
This is a Round 1 debate in the Ecperts Tier of the TUF Debate Tournament.I would like to thank my opponent DudeStop for this debate.The resolution is:Should children be able to run for, and hold, public office?I will be arguing the PRO side (that they should be able to run) and DudeStop will be arguing the CON side (that they should not be able to run). We hold a SHARED BOP (which is why the resolution is as a question, not a statement).
Adolf Hitler:Hitler being successful or not?
Before this Debate takes place i'm not agreeing with what he did but only stating facts and calling out the obvious of this era. I honestly think what was taking place during his is rule is different conversation or debate for another day. Without emotional feelings on the matter, lets leave this debate to facts and opinions. was Hitler a successful man? i would like to think so because all that he accomplished and did for his in the time being of his rule. Again WITHOUT emotional feelings on...
College athletes should be allowed to make money related to playing
This debate comes from the following Opinion. http://www.debate.org/opinions/should-college-football-players-get-paid The terms "make money" and "paid" refer to monetary or any highly liquidable asset (meaning something that can be turned into cash pretty easily and quickly) for compensation, beyond just scholarships that cover the cost of the schooling and housing. I will be arguing for a structured compensation with limits and regulations, but it will allow players to be paid and collect...
Debate.com should have a specified format
Debate.com should have a specified debating format. Just saying watch this video and have it carries no structure at all. People, cry, and moan about what ever they want, however they want in every comment forum on the internet. Take youtube for example, people just argue about things for no reason, I once saw an argument on a children's video over same sex marriage. I believe that the debate is appropriate but it has nothing to do with the video it was commenting on, so it is inappropriate but...

Should college athletes get paid?
College athletes are already getting paid with their education. They get $20,000-$50,000 per year just for their education alone. They also get gear, meal plans, facilities, travel, and so much more along with it. That is more than the average American makes yearly. So why give them any more money? Many say that cannot go get a job, but their sport is not all year long. There are many seasons where athletes can still go get a job, if they would like. If athletes get paid and are already on a sch...
Gay Marriage
The government should not be allowed to control who you love, and marry. It does not matter who you love, you should be allowed to love them without fear or anyone telling you can can not love them. The government already controls most of what we do, but who you love should not be something they have control of....
