C'mon Ned, that's different.

Are you willing to wager, that TBD will not be filled with calls for Beane's and McDermott's head, and viritually nothing else, if the Bills lose today. Or do you expect to see people rationalizing that its ok, because we are likely to be able participate in the playoffs as a Wild Card? Or will we have more posts about how the Bills are better than the weak-ass schedule Patriots despite losing twice?

Game week thread - Bills at Patriots*
Sammy Watkins' Rib replied to BillsFan619's topic in The Stadium Wall
Agreed. Forgot to throw in that the version of the Ravens we played week 1 was probably one of the best teams in the league. Pats are getting a much lesser version. Our only hope is that the Dolphins turn around is legit and sustained and they give them fits week 18. -
If Bosa and Benford are out this week, that's the three best players (along with Oliver) missing on a defense that is average at best even with them. So, yeah, nerves are understandable, especially looking at their replacements. Maybe Bishop and Milano will step up; they've been quiet. Or maybe Hairston will have a breakout game. Otherwise, we're depending on a team effort, which isn't grasping at straws. I do think McDermott has it in him to scheme up a defense that will at least slow down this offense, maybe hold it to 25 points. That would put the ball in Brady's court, where I'm less confident, especially if his initial ideas don't work. The last line of defense is Allen, but the team has been asking a lot of him this year. Carrying this WR corps and his OC is a big burden even for him. Incidentally, has anyone else noticed how ubiquitous the Superman trope is now? Seems like it's automatic for everyone to talk about Allen "putting on his cape"--then not mentioning him as an MVP candidate. If the Superman of the league isn't MVP, who is?

It’s a great question and I’m gonna need some time to think about it. Soto was 100% Cohen. So was Pete’s one-year deal last offseason.

There’s gonna end up being essentially 5 uncommon games in a division race likely decided by 1 game. People that say ‘it doesn’t matter the schedules are similar’ are kidding themselves and on top of that, the ‘uncommon’ games are the pats getting 1-2-3 in the draft order and us getting three playoff level teams which is pretty insane to think about haha. -
From Forbes. Not really a woke source.... Donald Trump just had the most lucrative year of his life. The president is now worth a record $7.3 billion, up from $4.3 billion in 2024, when he was still running for office. The $3 billion gain vaulted him 118 spots on The Forbes 400, where he lands at No. 201 this year. No president in U.S. history has used his position of power to profit as immensely as Trump. His primary vehicle for enrichment: cryptocurrency, an asset class full of hype and vulnerable to regulators. Teaming up with his three sons, Trump announced a crypto venture in September 2024 named World Liberty Financial, which initially struggled to gain traction. Then he won the White House. Almost everything in his portfolio is doing well. Appellate judges in New York threw out a roughly $500 million fraud penalty in August. Trump’s real-estate licensing business, stalled out for years, has come roaring back to life, with new deals in Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, Romania, India, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. Revenues jumped an estimated 580% in 2024 to $45 million, boosting the value of the business by $400 million. In the United States, the president’s golf-and-club portfolio continues to thrive, as profits jumped an estimated 30% in 2024, adding roughly $325 million to Trump’s net worth.

There are laws/fcc rules about how network tv stations have to share information if there are certain types of weather watches and warnings...it's why local TV will stay on the air full time during extra serious weather events I would imagine that relates to the stuff being shown at the bottom of the screen as well...and I agree it can be super annoying seeing the same thing for the hundredth time during a game and it messes with the aspect ratio too

I disagree. The bills are the 5 or 6 seed whether they win or lose today. I don't really see the pats falling apart and losing the division even if they lose today. I think there is going to be a third game with these two in january and that is the game where the pressure will be on Buffalo. Thats the game they have to win and the pats are just happy to be there if you will.

UPDATE 2025 - The Trump economy
Niagara Bill replied to Big Blitz's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Not bothering to debate JD and other defenders, but when the US would rather kill there purchases of necessary potash with their neighbour, after yrs of great contracts that helps US farmers, to buy it from Belarus and then insure they have 100% access to heavy crude oil from Venezuela, who supplies 3% of heavy crude to Texas refineries, while Canada supplies 70% of the heavy crude at a 15% discount price to Texas refineries. The reason certainly appears to cancel a good portion of supply from Canada, for more economic pressure on their neighbour to become 51. Yesterday, to put more economic pressure on UK, the US walked away from trade discussions, which was suppose to be done months ago, to put strain on Canada's actual friends. Denmark issued warnings of US imperialism this week. Project 2025 is alive and well. -

Charlie Jones was the man. I still like hearing his voice on the old videos.
