  1. Past hour
  2. My Niagara County house, bought in 2017, has more than doubled in value in 8 years. (Probably more than that, even, with all we've done to it.) But the exponential scale of equity accrued by Thompson's developed property in nearly half the time is bonkers. Money makes money. Affluent markets make money. Warm climate non-flood zones make money. Eventually the property values in WNY and CNY will increase at an accelerated pace compared to country-wide due to higher latitude advantages like improving agriculture and viticulture conditions and legendary fresh water access. Whereas the Carolinas will be subject to intense heat events and destructive extreme weather disasters. Outside of WNY's own localized disasters like floods and blizzards, the general YoY trends will take much longer to reach cataclysmic levels in much of NYS. The temperature trendlines of the Great Lakes are probably the most impactful markers of future problems. (Lake Erie gets REALLY warm these days; harmful algae blooms are increasingly common, as is reduced winter ice cover which leads to heavier lake effect totals.) Where is your residence in relation to flood zones and watersheds?
  3. I'm rooting for him more than any player. His skill-set could really help Josh fill a hole in this offense.
  4. When he came into the league he was guarded, uncomfortable in front of the camera, had difficulty expressing himself, and seemed generally tense. Watching him now, https://www.buffalobills.com/video/ed-oliver-the-rookies-keep-me-young is like watching a completely different guy. He's aware that he's changed and speaks to it several times. From a human interest stand-point, I find his maturation fascinating.
  5. Finally, a song for you @HOUSE
  6. Maybe he can't resist and did what he usually does in game during Raiders' practice?
  7. Needs more cowbell.
  8. Awesome! What are you referencing when you identify his matured personality? I want to watch/listen/read.
  9. Secondary market will always have Bills tickets, but as many have noted, a number of higher profile games each year will be fetching prices WELL above cost. Seems logical that PSLs will actually encourage more STHs to seek recompense by selling a choice game or two to highest bidders (often visiting team fans) on resale sites. The whole PSL program forces even devoted, old school diehard fans to face the commodified realities of contemporary venue construction cost overages and who actually is on the hook. Hint: it ain't the billionaire ownership. Oh, sure, the Pegulas fired a lot of people when it became clear they would be liable for a little more than originally planned, but the original NYS taxpayer investment of $850M + several hundred thousand $ in PSLs eventually sold easily outweighs the true Pegula investment. Plus unlike the Pegulas, who bring in revenue, we get no financial return on our investments...unless of course we decide to treat it more opportunistically. How 2025 goes on the field will have a real impact on how Bills Mafia treats seats in the new stadium next year. Such a perfect season to finally win it all.
  10. Ahhh....I need to reword my post. I was talking strictly from a personality stand-point. On field, I completely agree, he's been a mixed bag.
  11. Let the courts finally stick a fork in this never-ending unconstitutional tariff game.
  12. Today
  13. Why did you make a blatant attempt to copy Eminem's style?
  14. Trump is to blame here. Prime example: WSJ story on Trump's contribution to the "birthday book." Trump says it's a lie, made up, no such thing, I never drew a picture for any reason ever. That's all easily refutable stuff. We've seen the scribbles of buildings and cityscapes. WSJ reports today that Trump is in that birthday book's table of contents; so is Bill Clinton. So is Alan Dershowitz. Trump gave the story legs. Don't blame the Dems. They didn't even know they had an issue until Bondi and Patel gift wrapped it for them. Coming soon: Trump says maybe "his people" fielded Maxwell's request and submitted something for him; he's a busy man.
  15. I'm not saying you're wrong but if that's all there is why not release the stuff? But if he did and you are right it would be a big win and huge black eye for democrats. They'd look silly and dishonest. Not that that would be the first time or anything though.
  16. I saw Aerosmith on their Rocks tour. In fact it was 49 yrs ago July 23. Tyler was the best screecher in rock. Back in the Saddle is the proof. Was shocked seeing him nail “Whole Lotta Love” during the Ozzy tribute. Thought he had broke his voice and was done.
  17. Can you say more on Ed? What specific examples are you drawing from? Super interesting take on a guy who's been a bit of an enigma to date. His game against the Lions (and their physical, top-rated o-line) last season was complete and ELITE. That Aaron Donald-Lyte type of disruption and aggression that the optimists hoped for when he was drafted. In context, over the final 7 games last year, beginning with the Rams wk 14 and ending with the Chiefs in the AFCCG, Oliver recorded 10 QB hits, 19 tackles, 4 TFLs, 2 sacks, 2 forced fumbles, and 1 fumble recovery (while playing ~70% of snaps over that span). He played well when it mattered overall, despite being completely invisible for at least 2 of those final 7 games (DEN and NE). Inconsistency his biggest issue?
  18. Hysterical juxtaposition of those two renditions. Rocks is my fave Aerosmith album, Back In The Saddle set the tone, another good one below. Joe Perry is playing with Brad Whitford, Chris Robinson (Black Crowes) and guys from the Stone Temple Pilots. That won't suck.
  19. "Some league sources believe an incident involving a teammate may have factored in-part into the Raiders' fatigue and release of defensive tackle Christian Wilkins, beyond the management of his foot injury..." Cant stop twistin d!@ks
  20. I'm going with Ed Oliver. I love watching his press conferences these days. What a difference from his early years! He's honest, self-aware, thoughtful, and composed. Anybody else come to mind both currently or in the past?
  21. NOPE. Way too far Mr. President. Just keep pointing out their lies. America is listening.
  22. There will always be secondary. We got 4 very good field clubs. We weren’t looking for 4, but the rep said we had to take 4 if we wanted the seats. Most games we have 2 or 3 people (currently have 3 seats), so I know we’ll be selling the seats we don’t use and I’m sure others will to. When my family grows, I’ll be using all 4 personally more often.
