You say asinine things somewhere between daily and hourly. This one is an all-timer. Truly delusional.

I'm still wondering what's the difference between a flanker and a split end.

What about Pete Rose?

It'll be a sure sign of an impending merger when the NFL goes to 3 downs. Don't hold your breath.

Still, the Bills got the best of that trade. Especially if you discount all the 15 yard unnecessary roughness and unsportsmanlike conduct penalties Jerry got.

Remember when it was all Baker all the time?

When someone shoots a speaker from the left or right it's an attack on our Democracy. Murder has no place in politics and an assassin doesn't deserve a political allegiance with the left or right in my humble opinion.

I don't like this. We are yet to win a game this season in blue over white. Damn you New Orleans. Damn you trap games in jinxed uniforms!

That is one small-ass town he’s from. Great Bio

When I've watched CFL over the years, I have often wondered how much the humongous field devalues the in-person fan experience. Maybe they've done surveys and focus groups and this is something that came from it. I have been to a few NFL and college games where I was stuck in endzone seats and just thinking about being 40 yards further away from the other end...yeesh. And their field is quite a bit wider, so if you are in one corner looking at action taking place in the opposite corner...I'm not even going to try to do the math on it, but we are talking a significant difference. Of course, now they have to retrofit their stadiums and most of the new seating they will gain won't be all that great unless they lower the playing surfaces. It is an interesting decision and I am curious to know whether they will ever explain what went into it. Edit (rather explain than correct): I just read the profootballtalk article and I now understand that the changes won't shrink the field to exactly NFL size, so it won't be a 40 yard difference (I also thought their endzones were 25, not 20).

I agree with nearly everything you said. Though I don't think the expansion fees will be a hangup if the owners actually WANT to expand. Because it's probably pretty difficult to gracefully expand by adding 1 or 2 teams. It'd throw off the perfect division alignment they've got setup. But if the intent is to add 8 teams, 1 in each division, they will NEED to make compromises outside the norm. Owners would not require $10+ billion in expansion fees just to get a team off the ground. That would be all but impossible to expect that from 8 new owners. I think they'd compromise by requiring owners to foot the bill (or most of it) for new stadiums at each location, with an agreement to also pay a much smaller expansion fee over an extended period to allow fledgling teams to establish themselves. Again, this scenario is if the majority of owners WANT to expand (which is a big "if"). I also think they would prioritize Canadian markets over Mexico City, Monterey, Guadalajara, etc (all of them much bigger than the majority of existing NFL markets) because of the current way the US views Mexico as opposed to Canada. Americans view Canada as just a smaller US, while those same people see Mexico as poorer, developing, place where immigrants flee, and just "different." Not saying this is how I view it, only the attitudes towards each country are different in some Americans' minds. Not only that, but we've had NBA, MLB & NHL teams in Canada before. We haven't had NBA, MLB or NHL teams in Mexico (as far as I know). Adding an NFL team there wouldn't seem that much of a stretch in comparison. But yes, I would prefer they pick another location within the US (San Antonio or Austin) than go elsewhere.

I always felt the CFL should be a developmental feed for the NFL, CFL is hurting and the NFL is booming. it only makes sense to me

Who the hell needs Aaron Glenn

One thing’s for sure. Ain’t ever going back to red helmets. Those get a charity date with the Jets in the outgoing reg season game. That’s all folks. Guess we can thank them for that if you’re a red helmet fan, or not. So, of the team’s going combos, this week is Tops. All blues are growing on me though

Good god the racism in this thread is insane. Some of you definitely spent too much time back in the day around paint and gas with lead in it.

It’s linebacker and it’s gotta hit. Which I think goes against the Bills four year plan that started with the 2025 draft. Hammer defense 2025. WR for 2026, and more of a balance between offense and defense. They may have to delay help for Josh until the 2027 draft.

That's just stats though. If you've watched their games this year, Herbert has made elite game winning plays, in particular against KC and Denver. That's been the knock on him. He can stand tall in the pocket and make all the throws, but can he make the big play in the big moment? This year he's making those plays. This is also the first year where I've seen him realize his legs are a weapon. In the past he's been hesitant to take off even with wide open space in front of him, but this year he's giving defenses that one extra thing to worry about.

Someone tell @LeviF!

talking to trained therapists/counselors is something I can not recommend enough. The hospital should be able to easily identify those that specialize in youth eating disorders.

What, no more Be Best? Thankfully the alliteration and vagueness remain intact.

Anyone catch "The Lowdown" on FX tonight?? They had two episodes tonight, but I only watched episode 1.......had to DVR episode 2 for later. There are a lot of characters, and a lot going on, but it seems like it's going to be pretty good. Its got that "Noir" vibe to it......like Fargo without the snow. Give it a try.

I want whoever is making the draft picks in the later rounds to be making the picks in the early rounds.

Big money advertisers surely have a Q-rating and data for all the top athletes. If the data said they were marketable they would get commercial offers.
