No, it's a good comparison. As sometimes the best analogies are the ones that are not obvious, that you have to think about. Yes, the journey is the destination. And this particular journey is bringing us great things, great game days that fill our heads with amazing images. The championship will come. But, sadly, for many of those on that crazy negative train, even that will just be a one day thing. They will get right back on their super negative bandwagon at the first bump in the road.

I'm repeating something I wrote recently on another fan site with the usual cries of 'fire/replace McDermott". Of course, when asked how they'd remedy the head coaching status, without a cogent argument they inevitably say "Bill Belichick". Duh. Great idea. Alienate the roster and the GM who love McDermott and start over with a 73 year old coach. Belichick has six rings as head coach out of 29 seasons as head guy, so to think it's automatic is ridiculous. He never won a Super Bowl without Brady, yet Brady has won one without Belichick. Do the math. He might be a good coach, but that ship has sailed. Has any other Super Bowl winning coach gone on to win one with another team? Jimmy Johnson? Parcells? Something to ponder - Tomlin, Harbaugh, McVay, Payton, and Carroll - all have success as the head man and have won a Super Bowl. They have nearly 80 combined seasons as an NFL head coach between them, and a grand total of 5 Super Bowl wins, 1 each. Andy Reid was a head coach for 19 years before winning a Super Bowl! When 'fans' cry "fire McDermott", they clearly have no conception of how difficult it is to make it to a Super Bowl and win one. So much of it is just the right combination of keeping key players, developing new players, a good personnel dept, team chemistry, maintaining health, and sometimes one or two calls by the zebras can be the difference. There's a fine line. Personally, I hope McDermott remains in Buffalo for many years to come.

Is that like a cheese from Quebec?

Well, thank you. Appreciate the ok. Us in the minority need affirmation too.

just a quick question. Are not the optics the same? The gesture doesn't matter I guess whoever does it. right? I don't really buy that, a heil Hitler salute is hard to mistake for anything else. I would never make such a gesture. I don't like anything associated with hitler. So I watch Court TV. There is a case now where a defendant was "scratching her side forehead" with a very obvious middle finger Peoples panties got all bunched up because HOW DISRESPECTFUL. Maybe she was just scratching her face or maybe she was flipping someone else off. Only she knows which is true Samw with Hitler salutes. It's bad optics, its a bad look and we have NO BUSINESS emulating a guy like Hitler PERIOD Just as a sidenote I learned in Brazil that the "okay sign " thumb to index finger means the same thing as middle finger there. How did I learn this? By flashing it at a Rotary international meeting. #FACT I DID NOT KNOW I laugh about it now. OOPS m

Sorry to be unclear. That analogy hits me all the time, but it's more a function of my warped mind than something that would occur to others. Sorry. The desperation to find a scapegoat always bemuses me. We all ache for a championship. It's natural. But having a real chance every single year is a huge joy, one that most fanbases could never imagine.

The Democrats' failure to run a viable candidate led DIRECTLY to the election of Trump. You'd rather discuss how you can "get Trump to change his policies" than how the "Democrats can win in 2028?" Great, how are you planning to get Trump to change his policies?

I hope not, I still get crap from my wife for getting on one emergency work meeting during our honeymoon.

Nah the hyper sexualization is disgusting and shouldn't be pushed on kids. If you want a hotdog in your bun and you are consenting adults then do whatever you want behind closed doors. We don't need to see half naked men in public. There's a BIG difference between being gay and in a loving relationship and all of this pride nonsense. They are different things and if I was gay I would be pushing back on all of this pride crap because it's making them look bad. You can be totally normal and be gay, they shouldn't be mutually exclusive. The weirdos are ruining it for everyone.

Did you type that with a straight keyboard? During pride month no less!

I feel like @ComradeKayAdams is interested in textbook definitions of various political ideologies. There is some merit to that, but people and systems simply do not fall into strict categories that fit into near boxes. With respect to socialism and workers controlling production, I agree with you—the reality is it’s rarely about the individual, the collective runs the show, it’s just a different form of collective than a corporation. In the case of the German Socialist party, I’d think it’s a matter of semantics—they saw themselves as socialists, identified as socialists and morphed into the socialist monstrosity they ultimately became. I can see why Kay would prefer to distance herself from that brand of socialism, but when you get right down to it…they saw it differently.

Olivia Jean is Jack Whites wife. It would make perfect sense she is also a rocker chick. Her picture in my avatar today

I'm late, but I'm here right now And I'm tryin' to find the magic That we lost somehow Maybe I was blind But I see you now As we're laying in the darkness Did I wait too long To turn the lights back on?

Especially when I'm suppose to change everything I've ever known and been taught to be the norm and have others beliefs pushed down my throat at every turn . Live and let live don't expect ALL others to change because of your choices !!! Just do it and leave it there ...

Also seeing Jefferson go on to have the career he’s had when he was the Bills pick. He’s who I wanted had the Bills kept their pick. Didn’t know he’d turn into the superstar he is but I was high on him being a potential WR1. Beane has gotten us by with trades and free agency with WR but he has been dreadful with scouting and evaluating WRs in the draft. Loved Thomas jr and Mcconkey and we got neither. Also loved Addison and we ended up with Kincaid. There are other examples as well.

stadium anthem par excellence by the white Stripes. a drummer rocker chick YES https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=D_QLxj8jCF0&list=RDAMVMfT5t8Td9T44 the white stripes

But what ever we do don't let ICE go get these people and make them abide by our laws that would just be Ludacris to think that they should follow laws put in place to possibly avoid this type of thing and if you dig into their past that would be profiling and that just can't be that would be violating their rights !! Gather them all up and ship them out ASAP !! Just another piece of the puzzle to prove just how wrong Biden's administration was for allowing these types to be here why not hold Mayorcas responsible or was he pardoned too ??

We’re in the midst of the second “golden era” of the modern Bills…if you’re not enjoying it and only worried about SB titles you can go pound sand. Just my $.02…

I supremely believe Kelce is overrated. A system TE benefiting from Willford Brimley and Brittany Mahomes husband. I think his positives are his ability to sit down in open space and find green spaces. He also has good hands. I don't think he is efficient for running routes or being much more than a check down guy. He has been completely taken out of games far too often. They played the position and were at least able to chop block and chip. Kelce gets butthurt if he has to touch anyone.

Sorry I can't say... Had to sign an NDA...

I can't stand Mike Florio.
