What Are You Most Excited About This Coming Season?
PoundingDog replied to Victory Formation's topic in The Stadium Wall
The Bills biggest weakness is defending the run and the Ravens strength is running the ball or the threat of running the ball. A lot of effort this year is getting better run defenders on the line (including bigger bodies). If you can stop the Ravens' run, you will see a much different Ravens' team, kind of like what the Steelers were able to do against them in the past with a really incomplete team. -

In the AFC I think the Ravens have a better team than the Bills. The Bills do match up well with the Chiefs as the regular season proves but the Chiefs have to be in the Bills heads at playoff time. The Bengals if they rebound from last year seem to match up well vs the Bills as previous games between the teams prove. It will be a challenge to get to the Super Bowl. It is really going to depend on how much the Bills defense has improved as Beane made a lot of moves on that side of the ball this offseason. Of course, they also need to stay as healthy as possible as injuries can kill a season. That can be said for every team every season. -

It was hit and miss but I agree there were some extraordinary posters. My favorite was McAddict.

Defense. I think they’ll be really good this year. -
Ronnie still campaigning. 2028 is apparently not so far away. Pull up a map of the Krome detention facility in the southernmost part of the Miami area. It's been there a while. Guess what? It was surrounded by swamps - and yes, alligators (that's where they live) - when the built it. Stupid branding meant to get headlines and of course scare people. You might as well say that latest inland subdivision is "surrounded by alligators."

Learning to win is one thing. Learning to win championship is another. And that includes both the players, coaches and the front office. In Kelly's era when the Bills team came together, it took them 5 seasons (86 - 90) to reach the superbowl and that was with a team that had 2 first ballot HOF, and 2 additional HoF players with prime years. They were upset in one year but not a balanced enough team to win the others. The current team fought for 5 to 6 years and probably could've gone to a superbowl once if not for the dominating Mahomes and Chiefs in the conference, but I don't think they were inline to win a superbowl in any of the year. I like about the fact that the team is learning and adapting thru the struggle. McDermott is allowing younger minds to run the defense. Allen is digging deeper to narrow the gap between him and Mahomes. More balanced offensive attack. And the front office is coming around to invest heavy into D-Line. That's why I think the fruit of these effort is forthcoming. -

Supreme Court decisions.
The Frankish Reich replied to B-Man's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Birthright citizenship is not an issue that requires a trial in a lower court. That's for what lawyers call a "contested issue of fact." There is no contested issue of fact. You were born in the USA of two illegal aliens. Are you a citizen under the 15th Amendment, or are you not a citizen under Trump's EO? We call that a "pure issue of law." The Supreme Court could've decided it on the merits right now. Instead they said "no national injunctions," which is fair (to me) but is also an invitation to chaos. Well, yes. But unfortunately this is a case that proves a different political point, namely that Supreme Court Justices live in their academic ivory towers and are oblivious (or intentionally ignore) the practical effects of their decisions. Just decide the damn issue, not the procedural aspects. Are kids born in the USA to illegal aliens after the effective date of the EO citizens or not? Can you get a passport for the kid? What if the kid is born to lawful foreign grad students? The kid gets a passport if he lives in California but not if he lives in Texas? You move to California to magically make the kid a citizen? Justices need to live in the real world. The Supreme Court should seek to bring order and stability, not to encourage chaos. -

@The Frankish Reich this seems logical to me, but I'm just a regular guy making his way through life. What say you? ***oops, I see Francisish already opined. Ty, Frank! My summary of Frank's summary...the government for all it's moving parts and all the money coming in is still woefully inadequate at being efficient.

Thurman#1 replied to kitchen sink's topic in The Stadium Wall
There's plenty of true reporting. Maybe not a ton of deep reporting, but that's not really as much on the media as it is what people say and how often they talk. Investigative journalism? Yeah, not much, but there's not much of a way to do that in football. Reporters only get access at PCs, there are NFL rules about what can be reported and what can't. In every field public figures have learned how to keep reporters away. What are they gonna do? The science of public relations has taken over and public figures don't take risks or reveal much. This does indeed result in a lot of shallow stuff, boring stuff. The NFL doesn't seem to mind. -

A local reporter challenged me to a fight once when I told him the University of Buffalo wasn’t an official nickname for UB. Hamilton and Harrington were block machines the last time I was on twitter. -

Brandon Beane "might be the most sensitive GM in the entire NFL"?
BADOLBILZ replied to BADOLBILZ's topic in The Stadium Wall
It was common knowledge here at the time that the Panthers believed that. Do you really not recall that? The whole thing caught Bills fans and the Buffalo media by surprise. It wasn't a Buffalo generated narrative but pretty damn obvious, pretty damn quick in hindsight. You gotta' remember the context here was the Bills being Billsy. The idea that they would keep Whaley around for a year or two even if he didn't seem to mesh with McDermott was entirely plausible. That had been the case with the two prior HC's Whaley worked with. The sham McBeane pulled off was actually very clever. Get the intel you want from the scouts you trust. That was the only way they get the finished board and evaluations. Like I said.........the flaw was McD allowing KC to trade up for a QB in your spot. It's likely blocked them from reaching 2-4 SB's.
