  3. Thanks. From some of the renderings I thought maybe there was glass over a large portion of the areas open to the outside to actually block the wind from entering the stadium (and that the panels were more about confusing the wind from going up and over the exterior and into the stadium). It will be very interesting to see what the concourse feels like on a very cold windy day. How well can you see through the panels?
  4. What a bookend season. Win opening week 31-0 to the Pats*, lose closing week 0-31 to those same Pats*. 🙄
  5. After those first two weeks that season I thought we were going to the Super Bowl that year
  6. Yes, there is a narrow slit above the top of the upper deck, just below the roof. The perforated panels cover that slit. They haven’t installed many yet up at that level but they’re getting really close.
  7. Baroque and chamber music are two forms I find relaxing as I work.
  8. I tend to agree. One advantage Lundt has is that (IIRC) this is the last year of ultra-cheap team control for Vandy. So if they think it’s at all close, they might prefer Lundt as the 4th tackle who’ll be inactive most weeks anyway. I'm curious where @GunnerBill saw that Lundt had a great camp. I don’t recall reading anything to that effect.
  9. Seeing as how I played violin starting in fourth grade and sang in concert choirs through college and beyond, I definitely have an affinity for classical music.
  10. Looked good, takes horrible sacks, had a few good runs, faster than I thought. Rest of team was backups. One drive stated at Panther 8. T Mac from Carolina is gonna be a star.
  11. Do you think if you were given $250k you would become a billionaire multiple times over? His multiple is around 7000, only a few people can do that. You can bash him on a lot of things but the dude knows how to make money
  12. I still maintain he'd have to unseat Van Demark. I suppose there's a chance they could keep an extra OL over what they had last year. But that also seems to be something discussed for a lot of different positions this season.
  13. That was me! 👋 What’s your problem?? 🤷‍♂️
  14. He may be great, I dunno, but preseason. Peterman was a preseason warrior.
  15. you realize of course that the entire coaching staff goes as well. you're not just unplugging one guy you don't like. you are willing to ditch Brady, Kromer, et al in the process and start all over again with new schemes, mismatched scheme/players and all the restart that goes with that?? This board cracks me up. Give em a good, even a great thing and they trash it anyway.
  16. Today
  17. Lawyer Milloy was a surprise late cut by NE*. The rest is history!
  18. Birdwatching As you can see from my life list of a bit more than 500, I do not take it very seriously (there are more than 10000 bird species). Unfortunately, my most interesting sighting I cannot even "count". 25 years ago, at the north end of Lake Conesus, I saw a Brewster's warbler, lovely little bird. However, Brewster's warblers are not a species per se; they are hybrids of blue-winged and golden-winged warblers. Model Railroads It started quite innocently when our son was born, but then Papa took over. We model our local railroad, the Santa Fe, during the transition period (late 1940s/early 1950s, when the railroads would run steam and diesel). Soon, I had to get a model of every locomotive the Santa Fe was running during that time. In many cases, mass-produced "plastic" models are available. If not, the only alternative is brass. Brass models of the last 30+ years are gorgeous and run very well. However, they are hand-made in very small amounts (I have locos of which only 10-50 models exist), which of course drives up the price. Under these circumstances, my wife will easily forgive me paying $600 for some birding binoculars.
  19. i love it brother. I was the 3rd person on the post after we beat the Bills Jets game to win the AFCE in 1988. That was a great day as 8 of my college fraternity brothers and 5 of my dearest friends from HS at Frannies went together. We also had a friendly rival fraternity of 30 guys just on the other side of the tunnel. A great day.
  20. He has an instant HOF QB. In this equation there is only one number that isn’t adding up. HC+QB > HC+QB But , it is about the Defense. This is the point that those defending him keep skipping over. It doesn’t work when necessary AND a large part of that is on the HC. It is his scheme. Ostensibly, the players ( and types of player) that are being chosen to fit his scheme don’t elevate at the crucial moments. Other than NE, His D hasn’t dominated anyone in the playoffs of note. Baltimore was a lucky play ( albeit AWESOME) as they were driving easily to the EZ. Josh keeps him employed. After the inevitable meltdown by his D this year, I realize he will stay …… but he shouldn’t.
  21. The reverse is true. Buffalo is that hated rival of each of the other AFCE teams.
  22. Most definitely, much if not all of the concourse will be open air. Think about it. You won’t go through doors with air-lock vestibules to get out into the seating bowl while carrying your beer. So yes, the perforated panels will definitely help cut down on wind in the concourses (which are huge by the way). It’s the precast concrete grandstands themselves that block the wind inside the bowl. Hope that helps.
  23. Not to derail this thread but with his continuing little injuries, I won't be surprised if Samuel doesn't make the team despite his high price tag. Either of Chase or Higgins would put this team over the top (literally and figuratively).
  24. I think Lundt has better than an outside chance. I think he is 50/50 to make the 53. And he has had a very good camp.
  25. Many people on here know I’m an architect, and a high level one. (Not trying to brag…honestly.) I used those connections with people I know in the industry. It took a bit of coordination.
