One year closer to him being no longer an issue

Because you’re sick in the head, we know

I think his contract would have been about the same. Now, would he be a player for teams to look at and think “Hey, maybe we can get a deal here since his numbers don’t match his actual performance.” But there were obviously enough teams that actually did their homework on him to get his market to where it should have been.

That's a point I've been trying to make around here for a couple of years now. My own opinion is that the Bills have had so much success in the last 5 years that it's hard for me to argue that their philosophy about how to build a team is wrong. That's not to say that there is no room for argument, because there certainly is. For example, I have said for a long time the same thing several other people say, namely, the bills need a difference maker on the defensive side of the ball and Beane's only attempt to get one, Miller, didn't work out. But with respect to running back, I think it's quite clear that the Bills philosophy is that it is not wise to spend big dollars for a difference maker at that position. And that was my point in this thread - it isn't enough to say that Cook is worth x million dollars. He may be worth that in the market, but within the Bills system he is not.

I don’t necessarily love the parade. I don’t hate it either. But I get the criticism on this one.

Millions of people watch out-of-home games in bars and restaurants every weekend. But that's okay with the NFL. Those establishments are paying truck-loads of cash for the right to skew the Nielsen ratings.

While the Army has always had multiple anniversary celebrations planned for years, I don't believe a DC parade was included. That was President Trump's idea. So naturally. the TDS latched on to it as a Trump Birthday parade, because making all things anti-Trump is what they do.

No. What you are doing is allowed. It’s when you charge people to come watch the game you paid for.

Well said. And while we all can argue whether the Bills SHOULD be building the team that way, there shouldn’t be any debate about the fact that they ARE building it that way.

I think it could be a bit more of a compounding issue, maybe it wasn't something AB did specifically more like Gisele put up with all that ***** including all the way up to him inviting AB to live with them in his drive to try and win another one towards the end. Then when he does finally retire he's like nah maybe I'll keep playing after all, and that was just too much for the damn to take.

I read that Hoffman and Hortman's husband (the other person shot) died.

It's more than enough. you're a phony. I'm not nor did I have time to post 66k times when I was practicing. You didn't either. Cuz you weren't and never were practicing. projecting your huge lie on me is another typical maga move. you people really are the lowest group of Americans ever assembled.

OJ can make an argument only because I see him as a top 5 all time NFL RB.

What’s the real story here. Was this planned before the election? If so, would Harris have scrapped it or toned it down? Has Trump ordered it to be bigger? Whats the real deal? Because if this was always planned, the attacks from the left about this being Trump’s parade are so utterly gross. I havent read up on this a ton, so genuinely asking for anyone who actually has.

I think in no particular order, the 15 Best career Bills are : Josh kelly bruce OJ Thurman Reed Diggs Moulds Joe D tasker Bennet Hull Moorman Kyle Williams Then there are guy that weren’t here long enough to gain that status. Guys that were better than some of the all time bills and would be on the list had they spent more time here Shady Tre White Spikes Fletcher Winfield Lofton Stevie Johnson flutie Mario Hyde Poyer Cowart Paup Clements Beasley

Legislators Shot In Minnesota In the early hours of the morning, someone wearing body armor and likely impersonating a police officer called on the homes of Democratic state Senator John Hoffman and Democratic House Leader Melissa Hortman, and shot both of them along with at least one other person. It sounds like the perpetrator was a little more purposeful than the usual random nut. So far not much information is available. The condition of those who were shot has not been disclosed. As far as I know, the perpetrator has not yet been identified or captured. There is a press conference scheduled for a few minutes ago, that has not yet begun. Will update as appropriate. So No Kings Day begins with a bang. https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2025/06/legislators-shot-in-minnesota.php

Mr Artie Butler https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artie_Butler this guy has been a legend in the music and arts business for decades. I am privleged to have met him a few times through my daughter who is a professional cabaret singer in Los Angeles. The guy is just so Cool and talented. This first clip is a song in which he wrote the piano part and arranged. The song is Dave mason written cover of Feeling alright. the 2nd clip is a memorial that recently happened for my daughters Hollywood producer. a very distinguished and brilliant character in his own right Clifford Bell. Clifford's was a life lived full of joy and creativity. RIP If you fast forward to 3: 21:21 minute mark you will hear my daughter Katrina Aguilar, followed by Artie Butler. Katrina is known as having been mentored by Clifford in producing her own show called "Part of Your World" where she sings regarding how music helped she to break free from her autism having been non verbal until the age of 5 . And now a successful career in music and 2 college degrees. Classically trained at Boston Conservatory Enough about she. Here are the clips. Enjoy. m Joe cocker feeling allright Katrina Aguilar starts at 2:21:21 God help the Outcasts and then Artie Butler Here's to Life. well worth the watch.

The video evidence supports the tourist view for the protesters except for a handful of bad actors. We've all acknowledge J6 rioters deserved to be arrested. Something I'd like to see you acknowledge with the current riots. What the anarchists think they're going to accomplish is a mystery. It's a losing position on a losing issue. Protecting illegsl immigrant rapists, murderers, drug dealers, sex traffickers and others from justice.. Why not extend the courtesy to the domestic creeps too? All funded by shady NGO dark money much of it from China. How is life as one of Xi's useful idiots?

Is that all you've got? Me calling you a poser as well? That you couldn't see Biden was demented tells me you were never a doctor. You've already proven you are a liar.

Roundy refuses to condemn ALL political violence. What a POS.

yes, "Doc". You are a joke...A shameless joke.

in Eisenhower’s April 16, 1953 speech"The Chance for Peace." "The cost of one modern heavy bomber is this: a modern brick school in more than 30 cities. It is two electric power plants, each serving a town of 60,000 population. It is two fine, fully equipped hospitals. It is some 50 miles of concrete pavement. We pay for a single fighter plane with a half million bushels of wheat. We pay for a single destroyer with new homes that could have housed more than 8,000 people."

I agree with your OP and this. James Cook should be paid the 15 mil AAV he is looking for by the Bills. there absolutely is an inefficiency at RB for top running backs, which Cook is one. He accounted for over 20% of our total yards last year and more than 29% of our playoff yardage. At 15 million he would only account for 5.4% of the cap. In addition to being an exceptional producer, he also was very efficient. He averaged the 6th highest ypc in the league for RBs with the only non-rookie contract players ahead of him being Barkley and Henry. He also is underutilized as a pass catcher, where he ranked 12 overall among running backs in yards per route run (1.86) which was higher than Ty Johnson (1.73). Add to that being very young and having very low use age compared to most of these top backs, I think a second contract for him will be pretty safe and profitable. The argument that you can easily replace running back production I do think is accurate if you have a low end starter. The other aspect to remember is that getting that replacement does cost either cap space or likely draft capital. Beane has shown a willingness to spend day 2 picks on running backs and we had to spend thirds on Singletary and Moss before finally hitting on a good player in Cook in the second round. Signing cook prevents Beane from likely using another premium pick on a replacement running back who likey won’t be as good. As this relates to WR, the market is still very strong with 5 of the top 10 non-QB contracts being WRs. This high end has certainly caused the middle class WRs be getting more than they are worth. Shakir is an amazing contract for us that was a great job by Beane. But it is very unlikely Josh Palmer is going to live up to the 12 million/year in the fans eyes imo (the coaching staff may feel different like they did with Gabe). WRs switching teams via FA rarely do better than they did in their first stop in the modern NFL. I do think we will see (and are starting to see) a running back-ification of the WR position. There are just so many good WRs in each draft with how much passing has taken over college football that the replaceability of mid tier WRs is easier. Teams like the Packers and Chiefs have already started the process of getting rid of their top WRs and just filling the room with highly drafted rookies. I hope we take adding draft picks to the WR room seriously going forward because that is a multi-year project to stay ahead of this curve. Probably need to draft a top 4 round WR each year going forward since I agree that we likely won’t spend a top tier contract on a WR in the foreseeable future.
