  1. Past hour
  2. Achilles injuries seem to have become the new ACL of the modern athlete. One could say they’ve become a veritable Achilles heel.
  3. My most vivid (and fondest) memories: First Monday Night game, 1973, KC, game 7 O.J. goes over 1,000 for the season on the way the first 2,000 rusher. Record carries in that game I believe. 1974, season opener against Raiders. Monday night under the lights. Back and forth trading leads in final minutes (similar to 13-second game), OJ out injured, Bills win. 1980, season opener, Bills defeat Dolphins after winless 70's decade. Chuck Knox era with much promise. 1980, Dec 7, Bills defeat Rams, fans won't leave and demand an encore. Bills players Smerlas, Haslett, Ritcher, et al appease the fans and come back out of locker room, minus jerseys and pads (under shirts), lock arms and perform a chorus line kick dance to the sounds of 'Talking Proud'. Crazy. 1986, Jim Kelly's first regular season game in a Bills' uniform. Unfortunately, loss to Jets. Still, the beginning of the JK era. 1987, season opener, first time sharing the Bills with my Miami-raised girlfriend - now my wife. Jets, loss of course. 1995, Bills defeat Dolphins in close late December game, snow coming down in 4th quarter to finish it off, and as the players make their way to the tunnel after the final gun, the Hootie & Blowfish song is playing with the phrase "the dolphins make me cry" from 'Only Wanna Be With You'. Perfect. 1997, Season opener in late August (weird), day after Diana killed in wreck, Vikings. Loss. First tailgate meet-up with message board crew coming from Ohio, NYS, Virginia, Georgia, etc. Only about 7 of us. Internet it it's infancy. 2005, Texans, season opener, introducing nephews, next generation to the Bills experience. Sadly, the 10-year-old wasn't around for the 2006 opener. 2008, Seahawks, season opener, last time with one of my long-time closest friends with whom I attended many games, including the 1980 opener. It was supposed to be sunny, but it rained, we got soaked, he got pneumonia. Gone by November. After being there for at least one game every year, that is the 2008 game is the last one in that stadium. I don't know if I'll get there in 2025. Hope so. Apart from the Bills games, many 'Superfest' concerts in the 70's with some of the biggest names in rock. These were the days when you buy tickets for concerts and Bills games for under $10. Being at the first Monday Night game, for the Bills and the new stadium in 1973, I'd really like to be at the first one in the new stadium. Time will tell.
  4. Absolutely not, and spoiler alert: incoming whataboutism! Read at you own risk! I do not think he reviewed each case, and will state definitive that it’s very rare for a President to review the case associate with pardons in any great detail. I think there are political pardons, favors for friends and favors of friends of friends. I think that’s the way it works, just about always, so it seems silly to spend much time debating that point. For that matter, I have not reviewed each and every case, or any and all cases. I review the review on an iPad and try to apply my sense of fairness to what I know. There were crimes committed on 1/6, and to summarize my thoughts (shared somewhere in this forum on 1/6) was that the people who broke the law on that day did not represent my views, and you would not catch me anywhere near that type of event. Joe Biden was elected president, he became my president after the election, and I was ready to move on. However, there is a gaping chasm between some of these knuckleheads that assaulted law enforcement and created chaos and a person trespassing in whatever form the DOJ chose to prosecute. Here’s a summary of why I think fair minded people can reject the notion that every prosecution and very outcome was fair, reasonable and free from political animus: https://edition.cnn.com/2024/06/28/politics/supreme-court-limits-obstruction-charges-against-january-6-rioters/index.html To be blunt, I think I’m in the mainstream here. Many prosecutions were fine and suitably harsh, those individuals should not have been pardoned by President Trump. Some were overzealous prosecutions politically motivated, and politically motivated resolution seems to be the most likely outcome.
  5. Well, if he showed up conditioned to the conditioning drills, this may not have happened. Isn't this the normal expectation?
  6. So you don't believe what they say UNTIL they write a book or post something you agree with? Then it's credible? I would say you are smarter than this but you are Maga so I doubt it.
  7. We’ve never had any difficulty making travel arrangements for a regular season road game and that includes two trips to London. Not sure what all the stress is about. People travel to these major cities every day for business on much much shorter notice without batting an eye and that’s during the traditional workweek. Go Bills
  8. In terms of self-awareness, Stelter is a media version of Redhawk/Roundy.
  9. Lot 1 is usually closer to the main entrances, so you get quicker access to the stadium, but it might be a little more crowded. Lot 7 could be a bit further out, but it might be less hectic and easier to get in and out of.
  10. For sure - planning potential trips to Atlanta, Charlotte and Pittsburgh this season.
  11. Losing a player like Ar'Darius Washington is a big blow for the season. Hope they can find a way to adjust and keep pushing forward.
  12. If you and I had to do a love making scene, I want everyone on here to know that it will look incredibly real because we are both professionals…it probably won’t lead to anything after.
  13. Chiefsaholic definitely made headlines for all the wrong reasons this time. The story is wild – sounds like something straight out of a movie
  14. That's why I'm hoping they play him at S and don't bother with NCB because that's too much to put on a rookie's plate, especially if they want him winning a job sooner rather than later. And right now the need is greater at S than NCB.
  15. An 81 year old man might need a wheelchair, shocking. An 81 year old man is slipping mentally? No, say it ain't so! Everyone could see he was losing it. I think the degree to which he was losing it became clear in the debate. His close circle, whoever threat was, did a good job of hiding it. This is why people don't trust either party, 43%of people are independent. You can't trust the dems and the republicians are being exposed for who they are right now. I'm not sure I completely agree with blaming the media, if Boehner handlers didn't let the media near him how we're they going to know the full extent that he lost it? I blame Jill and hunter for pushing him to run again.
  16. All together, just under $1000 - the mower itself was around $550. Fortunately, one of the batteries is interchangeable among the trimmer, edger and blower. Plus, I built a bad-ass looking charging station in my garage.
  17. Looked up his 40 time…..ouch…..4.71.
  18. All this because you gushed over Jesus in a Bernie t-shirt, and I suggested He would go a different route? I’m pretty stunned I received any pushback at all…mostly because the subject was about Jesus, wearing a t-shirt. That’s the stuff of your Teen People or Seventeen tabloids, Kay, whimsical but unserious. I’m not against all that by the way, it’s just hard for me to relate to that particular subject and focus on it for any length of time. On commentary of my physical state, no, Kay, I would not think an apology is in order. You said what you think, you think what you said, and you meant what you mean. I cannot control what you say, I can only control how I process it. I think, but certainly don’t know, that maybe somewhere in your emotional development you received positive immediate reinforcement for the type of behavior you occasionally exhibit here. Or, maybe you believe with all your precious precociousness what you said, and bless your heart for that. Either way, I have my own issues, so yours are whatevs. I feel like I’ve extended compliments your way, and acknowledged that some of your posts provided fuel for thought. In case I kept those fat-headed thoughts in my fat head, I think you’re probably pretty intelligent, do an excellent job of outlining your thoughts, sticking to your values and I can respect all of that without agreeing with you. You also used a word the other day that I was unfamiliar with, and I like it. On your manifesto subs 2.0+, I’m sorry you feel that way. You should work through it, emotionally and intellectually, because one fat, smelly carnivore shouldn’t have you writing a thesis on how you are interacted with. It’s unhealthy. What…happened to us, Kay?
  19. This is what I have so far.
  20. Well it's not us but the whole "they wouldn't make a team play on Thanksgiving AND Christmas" theory is shot down
  21. Next time the wife says I’m weird for getting her sister's name tattooed on my junk I’m going to point her to this thread
  22. Andy flipped on this guy so Brett could commandeer the moniker Chiefsaholic. Look out five year olds.
  23. If you go off his playing career, then Rose is a slam dunk to get voted in. But will he get enough votes despite being reinstated. Many of those who vote on this may not forgive him despite being reinstated.
  24. Stop you are all for suspending the constitution? And you are not with Maga, they have not thought this out to this degree. You would need to draw a picture book for them to explain where you are coming from. I think they can deal with Israel and Gaza without taking a bribe.
