  1. Past hour
  2. If he wins a super bowl in the next year or two he'd be top 7 on this list. He hasn't and has the MVP. So he doesn't get the respect.
  3. Hard to tell. Not the country but whether people are offended or not. Politics seem to be a hot topic today. I am Swedish (so I would also like to bounce the little mouthy Norwegians at the border...).
  4. In Jim Kelly’s book Armed and Dangerous, Kelly said that Shula left the field in tears.
  5. Regular season it is better than "pretty good". No active coach has beaten Andy Reid as many times as McDermott. He is unbeaten vs Kyle Shanahan and has a winning record vs Sean McVay. The one who has gotten the better of him consistently in the regular season is John Harbaugh (3-1 vs McDermott) and ironically McDermott is 2-0 vs him in the playoffs.
  6. I am assuming that your grasp of English is still evolving because I am not offended by you at all. I called you pathetic, very different. I though will admit I am curious which country you are from?
  7. He didn't actually. That 2015 Bills team that Rex went 8-8 with was the most loaded Bills roster of my fandom aside from QB. Significant players on that team that were not on the 2017 team: Sammy Watkins, Robert Woods, Percy Harvin, Stefon Gilmore, Ronald Darby, Nigel Bradham, Mario Williams, Marcel Darues (who played 6 games in 2017 and was traded with the Bills at 4-2). I know McDermott and Beane were responsible for some of that talent not being there because they'd traded away for picks or allowed to walk in FA.... but my point is in terms of the talent on the football field the 2017 roster, while not a scrub roster by any means (2018 was much closer to that - at least on offense), was definitely weaker than the 2015 roster. That 2015 Bills team 100% should have made the playoffs, more so than any other team in the drought IMO. Rex then went 7-8 before being fired in 2016, which wasn't quite as strong with Mario and Bradham totally gone and Sammy hurt for a lot of the year (and I think that was the year of cluster injuries at safety wasn't it? Ended up starting total scrubs back there). I take your point about McDermott's 9-7 vs Marrone and Mularkey's 9-7 seasons. Particularly Mularkey's actually. Marrone's was an 8-8 masquerading as a 9-7 by beating the Patriots when the Bills were already eliminated and the Patriots were locked in on playoff seeding. There WAS an element of the Bills getting some breaks their way in 2017 that the tiebreakers favoured them and the Bengals pulled off the comeback in Baltimore. I think that is legit. I less take the argument that McDermott was just one win better than Rex with the same roster. He was 1 or 2 wins better with a definitely weaker roster.
  8. NYC would become Seattle on steroids x100 …..this thread depresses me. I need a laugh.(sic)
  9. This is in extremely poor taste.
  10. The latest stats I could find are from 2021 that said NYC has about 36K tax filers making $1 million+. Probably a good assumption there's somewhat more people making that much in 2025. So I think the plan is to tax the crap out of those $1M earners to pay for all the goodies for everybody else. Maybe drive it down to those at $400K? The problem is the basic tax the rich approach which is attractive to voters wanting a lot of perks but not wanting to pay for them directly creates a lot of disincentives for high income individuals to stay in the city. many could decide to leave and set up permanent residency in lower tax States. Which erodes the tax base and makes the expected additional tax revenue vanish. Given the reality that technology has the capability to render the mid-town Manhattan office complex obsolete if you're willing to deal with the lower productivity with working-from-home arrangements and it gives high earners more options than just staying and paying. It changes the decision from having to be in NYC to wanting to be in NYC. Don't think for a minute New Jersey and Connecticut won't be dangling lots of incentives to large employers to leave Manhattan and move to their States.
  11. I was 11 years old, and remember exactly where I was and how I reacted after that TD!
  12. What's your threshold for success on this mission? Delaying a deliverable nuke by 6 months, 1 year, 2 years? The vax? The cdc under trump still highly recommends it https://www.cdc.gov/ncird/whats-new/covid-19-vaccine-effectiveness.html https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/73/wr/mm7304a2.htm If you're fat from basement dwelling it's especially important https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-06-covid-vaccine-severe-illness-death.html#google_vignette "The updated vaccines reduced the risk of ED and urgent care visits related to COVID-19 by 24%, hospitalizations by 29% and critical illness (intensive care unit admission or in-hospital death) by 48% during the first seven to 299 days after vaccination."
  13. LOL! “ Time told on” what now? What actually got implemented (with no science behind it, much less controlled trials) and failed, “SectionC3”?
  14. I’m pretty sure the new intern (i.e. Adams’ buddy Staal) is also working remotely. It’s crazy how poorly run this team is. They have the longest playoff drought streak of all time and have a 4 season lead on 2nd place. It really makes me wonder how Pegula was competent enough to build and run a billion dollar business.
  15. Thanks for that. I had forgotten how good Jim Kelly was. I never compare him to Josh, that would just be a wrong thing to do. I noticed there wasn't a post-game handshake between Levy and Shula. I guess it wasn't a thing back then.
  16. I just got enough courage to watch this. I think the most disappointing thing was learning that our new Senior Advisor to the GM, Jarmo Kekalainen, will still live in Columbus, OH and work remotely. When you consider our current Associate GM (Jason Karmanos) lives in Pittsburgh and works remotely, well, the optics look like crap. Kevyn Adams constantly preaches "We want people that want to be here" yet he can't even get his own high-level front office people inside the building.
  17. There's a big difference between "minimal" and "rendering the nuke program nonfunctional." If the goal was to cave in a few entrances but otherwise leave the facility untouched, and then impose a cease fire, but not get the enriched uranium, and allow Iran to rebuild its air defenses and nuke program after Mossad blew its cover on one of the finest intelligence operations in the history of the world, well, then, mission accomplished. But now the Iranians don't trust us because we used negotiations as a ruse. And now they know they need a bomb to keep the Israelis and us at bay. This whole thing was a big eff up unless Iran's nuke program was destroyed, which it does not seem to have been.
  18. And what happened to the current mayor when he pushed back against with the mass importation of illegal criminals is good for the city narrative?
  19. Hoax. Everything I said was right. At least this time you didn't default to "cope and seethe." That's an improvement. Although it would be better if you'd simply say that this guy sold us a bill of goods and hasn't done anything of consequence, aside from proposing to inflate the national debt and otherwise wasting money on a parade and a hamfisted deployment that was completely unnecessary, since he got into office. Solid point. "Doc" returns to defend his HCQ BS. Looks like time told the truth on that one. Do we use HCQ to treat COVID today? Nope. Nice work pushing that junk science, "Doc."
