  1. Past hour
  2. I had no idea Peyton Manning won the MVP 5 times. 😱
  3. Having just one known quantity at outside corner feels pretty dang risky. Benford is easily the second most important player on this roster.
  4. Yeah because he sure made a difference when the Bills played the Cowboys. A demon pass rusher, but just useless against the run. I would rather have a well-rounded elite player like TJ Watt or dare I say Joey Bosa (the league better take notice.)
  5. Not a single vote for a Bill in any category.
  6. Looking at Green Bay's schedule: Minn X2, Detroit X2, Philly, Washington, Balt, Pittsburgh, Cincy, Denver..... Micah could be the difference between a win and a loss in any of these.
  7. I hope they have a big fleet because we need more of these around here. 😆
  8. how quickly we forget... Mozart Chopan Pavarotti Or groups like KISS Nirvana Zepelin Doors Queen True icons are more than a 20 year run. Madonna is the only female I can think of that has spanned more than 3 decades with her prevalence. Will Taylor still have the popularity she does in 20 years like the Dead? The Beatles? Elvis? I did not say that it is a recent phenomenom but the cultish following that is this absurd is more recent and prevalent than other points in history. This is what I was getting at in my first point. In 2040 we are not going to be hearing her most recent album being cited as something like the Zeppelin albums, etc. I doubt we are still singing anything but her bubblegum early pop stuff pre 1989 album after the year 2030. Shake It Off, Bad Blood, We Are Never Ever, Ever Getting Back Together, Love Story, and maybe...maybe Our Song will be the only lasting ones we sing. A few like Mean and Never Grow up will last longer than Cruel Summer, Who's Afraid of Little Me, You Need To Calm down... Anything off of Lover, Reputation, Folklore post her 1989 album... will be gone. Those before 1989 like Red, Speak Now had the best stuff people will remember.
  9. They're going on tour?!?!? I believe Gilliam is one of the Bills core four special teamers which makes him pretty valuable. The ability to fill multiple roles actually saves roster spots. And there's no way Mike White was gonna be retained in any capacity. So you're saying he's a Jag who plays for the Jags?
  10. Hooks would have scored if he didn't have to move to avoid the official.
  11. Has anyone tried the Sleeper App for fantasy football? I started a new 10 league this year that’s 1 ppr, redraft, with blind action waiver wire. I’m 9/10 and we pick tomorrow morning. I’m also the comish in a 12 ppr, redraft, blind auction waiver, ESPN league. We’ve done this league for over 10 years now, probably close to 15. After seeing Sleeper, it puts ESPN to shame. I love mock drafting and Sleeper doesn’t great job at it. You can see all of your past mocks, plus invite people into the mock draft, making it easy to practice with others. There is also a feature I’m trying out this year. Everyone in the league has two matchups each week. A regular head to head and then you play against the average score of everyone in the league. So you can go 2-0, 1-1, or 0-2. I’ve had a lot of fun over the years expanding the playoff field, which keeps just about everyone in the hunt until the very end, so I’m excited to see how things shake out with the two matchups a week.
  12. I watched three versions of this (longest TDs, longest pick-6's, and this one), and it's funny that the pick-6's and non-scoring plays were mostly longer yardage than the TDs!
  13. Chris Jones is still the highest paid DT in the league… by a lot.
  14. I feel very similar about that drop to how I feel about Bass' missed FG against the Chiefs in 2024. Lining up for the FG, I was already very confident we were going to lose, because Mahomes had plenty of time to drive down for a FG. I expected the Ravens to convert the 2-pointer, but also felt very confident that Allen would drive us down for a FG with the time remaining.
  15. Parsons IS an amazing asset. This "he can't stop the run" thing is silly. You're right, he can't. I remember the Bills game where they ran right at him. You're not paying him to stop the run. You're paying him to bring down the opposing quarterback. I'd bet dollars to donuts that the Cowboys defense will be better against the run this year. .....And much worse at bringing down the opposing quarterback. If it's me, and my defense stinks but I have one or two really good defenders, I'm retaining those guys and then building around them. Swapping out the pieces that aren't so good. Upgrading over the players that need to be upgraded over. What I'm NOT doing is saying "meh, defense stinks anyway, might as well get rid of our one blue chip defensive player". To each their own. I think the "highest paid non-QB" top 10 players list speaks for itself. Get a quarterback, protect that quarterback and give him a weapon, bring down the opposing quarterback. Those are the priorities. Stopping the run on 1st and 2nd down is lovely. But if it's 3rd and 8 and the QB has all day to throw because you shipped away a blue chip EDGE, what good did the run stopping do ya?
  16. We didn't get to see any semblance of what this team will look like in the preseason, so we have no idea what we'll see in a little over a week. Couple that with the fact that a good portion of Bills Mafia has been waiting for the team to return to its natural state since the team got good in 2020, and you get rampant negativity.
  17. No, it’s time for our pitchforks!
  18. Are we sure that isn’t the English teacher (they are usually the freaky ones) and the janitor?
  19. there are a bunch of artists that qualify Elton Bruno Garth Ringo ELVIS hmm lasting power of the Grateful Dead I think so. On some levels at least. it's an interesting conversation.
  20. The NYT story yesterday is claiming the Minneapolis trans shooter's motive is still "a mystery". Huh? (Kunstler's stuff below is always a good read) The War On Reality is Over “. . . this time the story has escaped the narrative guardrails and some real reckoning looms.” —Jeff Childers James Howard Kunstler Aug 29, 2025 Unwittingly, that New York Times headline is a wondrous case of the self-solving mystery. You come here to understand the many social and political mysteries of the day. I will attempt to unravel this hairball. Most obviously, the suspect, now dead, in Wednesday’s Minneapolis school shooting was not a “her.” He was a him, a 23-year-old male, Robert Westman, who had been pretending to be a female for some years since undergoing puberty, with the encouragement of his parents and the cultural leaders of his city, including Governor Tim Walz and Mayor Jacob Frey, backed by the expressed principles of the national Democratic Party. The essence of all that was a gigantic game of pretend, a broad and deliberate dissociation from reality for the purpose of maintaining a political racketeering operation, which is what the Democratic Party had become. Pretend that men can become women. Pretend that Covid vaccinations are safe and effective. Pretend that national borders don’t matter. Pretend that crime is not a social problem. Pretend that riots are mostly peaceful. Pretend that our elections are free and fair. Pretend that “Joe Biden” is president. Pretend that Ukraine is fighting for democracy. And so on. All pretend. Since the Democratic Party has zero useful ideas for improving the lives of this country’s citizens, all it has is pretend theater, which is public performative psychopathology, otherwise known as acting-out. Mass murders of school-children by so-called trans people are the most garish and horrific actings-out, the most offensive to society, a slaughter of innocents. Such an act grabs everybody’s attention. The New York Times pretends that all this is “a mystery” because to tell the truth would inculpate them in the ongoing criminal racketeering operation of their patron, the Democratic Party. They all know what the truth is in this matter: that Robert Westman became insane, at least in his time of puberty, possibly earlier, and that his parents resorted to persuading their child that he was born in the wrong body — as the trendy theory goes — to remedy his psychological distress. He was thereafter influenced to play-act as a female. Possibly, he was induced to go through some stage of medical “treatment” to supposedly advance his transition to the opposite sex — for instance, a hormone regimen. This has not yet been reported. (Has it even been investigated by police or the news media?) Of course, “gender-affirming medical care” is a vicious fraud, as is the preposterous idea of “sexual assignment at birth” (as if it is some kind of error-ridden clerical function). Males cannot be changed into females no matter how much their hormones are altered or how much surgery they endure. It is all just costuming and makeup, to an extreme degree, to enhance the game of pretend. It is also bound to be nightmarishly disappointing to the person undergoing such malign rigors. As in the case of psycho-killer Robert Westman, he discovered his tragic mistake in exactly the period of life — emerging into adulthood — when emotions tend to be most labile. If he also happened to be on psychotropic drugs such as SSRIs (Prozac, Zoloft, Paxil, Celexa, etc.), known to produce suicidal and homicidal thinking, combined with his emotional instability, there you have an obvious recipe for disaster. None of that is mysterious. Nor was the record he left behind in his “manifesto” or in the videos and social media postings he put up. Westman evinced stark rage and despair over the poor choice he was induced to make at a time in his life before the judgment region of his brain had fully developed. “I’m tired of being trans,” he wrote. “I wish I had never brainwashed myself.” It was hardly his own fault, though. He was pushed to do it by his own family and strongly supported by the culture that surrounded him in Tim Walz’s “trans refuge state” of Minnesota — the state that also gave us George Floyd, the fake martyr to black victimhood, whose death provoked a years’ long national race-hustle. And, of course, Tim Walz was a recent standard-bearer for the Democratic Party, a signature figure for all their insanity. Wednesday’s shooting in Minneapolis looks like a hinge event in American politics. We’re done pretending. Trans is done as a political fashion-statement. Doctors will have to give up their pretenses about “gender-affirming care” if they don’t want to be bankrupted by lawsuits or prosecuted for criminal malpractice. Politicians like Walz and Frey will eventually shut-up about trans. But you can sense something else beyond that. America is done being bullied and guilt-tripped into the matrix of untruth altogether, and the racketeering that thrives in it. And we are going after the racketeers. This week, President Trump suggested a RICO investigation and potential prosecution of George and Alex Soros, for using their vast philanthropic Open Society empire as a colossal money-laundering operation to fund Democratic Party activities, including all their efforts to disorder the legal system, sponsor riots, pay illegal migrants, promote trans activism, rig elections, and underwrite sedition. Without that money-flow — much of it used to winkle taxpayer dollars out of Congress — the party can’t keep paying its Antifa foot-soldiers in the streets, or the lavish salaries of its middle managers in a world of corrupt non-profit orgs. Between that and the coming prosecution of its many stars from the Clintons to Adam Schiff to New York Attorney General Letitia James and many other names you are familiar with, the Democratic Party — and its war against reality — may be truly done.
  21. It's too much risk for me for a non-QB. I'm worried about injury mostly
  22. If u were really interesting would look for yourself https://time.com/7222411/blue-states-are-bailing-out-red-states/
