What Are You Most Excited About This Coming Season?
Gilberto replied to Victory Formation's topic in The Stadium Wall
After the last 5 incredibly fun and entertaining seasons, the only reasonable expectation now is to go to the superbowl. Anything less than that will be a letdown. I will still enjoy the regular season and all the drama; but let's be honest, the Bills are at a level where anything less than the SB is familiar territory. I am most excited about seeing how the draft class and offseason free agents improve the Defense. I am also interested in seeing the new offensive FA additions. I am somewhat indifferent about special teams. -
Why not FireChan2.0? The upgraded version. I thought Chans was an odd choice at first, but used to it now I nominate @muppy!!

So after urging Terry to sign Rex and him turning into a disaster within two years… -
Mass media can dish it out, but can't take it?

Everyone is making great points. I think I'll start a podcast about it. -

I saw that interview, it was fantastic. Simple yet brilliant observations. -
The reparations discussion is a ploy to try and regain African American voters. Trump received more African American votes that any Republican in the last fifty years. The democrats know reparations are not feasible. How will they force 342 million people to take a DNA test? What about people who have both slave and slave holder DNA? What about American ancestors of the African tribal chiefs who sold their people into slavery to start with? Do we include reparations for ancestors of white slaves from the Barbary Coast from ancestors of slave holders from North Africa? Do we stop at American slavery, or do we include ancestors of Jewish people who endured the Holocaust? American ancestors of people subjugated by the Romans, Ottomans, Chinese, Egyptians, and Mayans? Where does it stop? Find me a person who didn't have an ancestor persecuted at some point in history, you're going to be looking awhile. The mere mention of reparations is a complete and utter scam to attempt to convince African Americans in poverty that there is a golden ticket waiting for them. Corey Booker is either a complete idiot or a total scumbag.

SoCal Deek replied to kitchen sink's topic in The Stadium Wall
Everything in life is cause and effect. The reason media is the way the OP observed is that there’s very little true reporting or investigative journalism being done. That sort of thing takes lots of time and costs lots of money. What we have instead is people just spouting opinions or repeating other people’s opinions. With a plethora of outlets competing for attention each story burns red hot for a week and then the circus packs up and moves on to the next car accident. The only remaining question is whether it’ll reach such a critical mass that it completely folds in on itself and/or explodes in supernova. -
Supreme Court decisions.
The Frankish Reich replied to B-Man's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
What's good for the goose ... https://www.dallasnews.com/news/courts/2018/12/18/a-look-at-the-low-key-texas-judge-who-tossed-obamacare-shows-a-history-of-notable-conservative-cases/ Both sides play the "choose a favorable district/get a national injunction" game. Democratic groups invented it; Republicans perfected it. It is a good decision in general, but the missing part is this: if individual judges can't issue nationwide injunctions, the Supreme Court is going to have to get a lot more efficient at reviewing policy changes quickly. Since we don't have that, the immediate outcome will be lawsuits on birthright citizenship in 90+ federal districts, no doubt with conflicting rulings. Born in north Texas to illegal immigrants? Not a citizen. Move west to NM? Bingo! Citizen. Unworkable. -

Lots of companies pride themselves in having a flat management style. There’s probably way less that don’t. My point was that President is a legal/business/corporate term. Corporations are required to designate someone as the President. If memory serves, they’re also required to designate somebody as the Secretary. But the latter term doesn’t mean they’re supposed to bring the President coffee. 😉 -
Politics aside, this ruling is logical. I am not sure how it makes sense for someone at a lower level to be able to have enough power to universally override the higher-ups ruling at will if they do not like it. We can't do that to our managers and supervisors at work and Josh Allen couldn't override Beane and McDermott on a free agent signing after it has been done. They should still have a complaint or appeal process, but now it is more balanced so that judges on either side can't use frivolous stall tactics in the name of partisan politics..

A lot of us thought the Bears would've been a playoff team and Caleb the stud like Jaylen year 1. They have been winning the offseason for years yet come the bright lights failing.

You can also say Jim Crow held people back. If my father had been black he wouldn't of attended the same school, same army unit, same university, etc. I would of grown up poorer, in a different social economic place. Ya, its all true, but how you gonna hand out money to people like that. It would create a backlash, feed a stereotype and add a level of toxicity to our political discourse. Native Americans next? How about women?

Bills Score 3 TDs in 77 seconds. Sept. 30, 1990
machine gun kelly replied to Dan Darragh's topic in The Stadium Wall
I remeber that game as i just graduated from college at 20, and was preparing to move to Tampa at the 1st of the year to go to grad school. If memory serves, we saw it at the K of C in Lackawanna as my Dad’s side job from the news was the house manager. He put on great football Sundays with members, and would roll out whatever wasnt eaten at the weddings and parties that weekend. It was so much fun as he turned that lounge into a sports bar with tv’s from every angle. God i miss that beef on weck and famous pork chops. It was all on the house for the members, just had to pay for the beer. -

He said that to Terry, about Rex. That's been quoted a billion times -

About whom did Brandon say that? And he “resigned” in May of 2018. The Bills were already on the right track by then. -
I'd guess Diggs numbers will be that of Samuel this year, decent #3 numbers. I still think his Knee won't be right. Shakir is Josh Allen's #1, he wins this match up easily.

We're in the 2028 positioning period. Booker didn't catch fire at all the last time around. He is viewed as a more centrist, and so he's trying to pick up support from a more left wing black base. Interesting, though, that his "baby bonds" concept is now part of the Republican pro-family plan. It didn't catch on with Dems, but it caught on with Republicans.
