Dalton in college was 246. Bills list him at 240. So he hasn’t put on any muscle since college? So he actually lost weight since joining Bills? And I’m quite aware muscle weighs more that fat, but that does not show in appearance or play.

What? The Church hardly ever involves itself in legislation of any country. Its distanced itself from who to say should or shouldn’t receive communion (simple rule sin on your soul you can’t receive it). Its job is….your soul. You want to vote for and support abortion - good luck explaining that at the end. That is clear dogma - when life begins. Welcoming the foreigner - immigration - is not Catholic dogma or doctrine.

no idea. do a search. everyone is biased. he seems biased towards what most would call liberal social justice issues.

So you're saying politics did play a role in the selection? Not for nothing if God is going to ordain people based on political beliefs I doubt he would start with the party who believes in abortion.

So did he denounce abortion and gender affirming surgery for kids and same sex marriage? Simple question. If not then he is biased

One of the rare occasions I disagree with Matt Walsh. The Catholic Church has way more in common with the pharisees who sent Jesus to die than they do Jesus himself. If you believe in the Holy trinity, and you've read enough of the Bible, how could you ever believe the Pope was ordained by God? This is an institution that hid or failed to report nearly a century of sexual abuse. In 2002, the Boston Globe printed a statistic that nearly 60% of priests had at least one complaint of abuse levied against them. Beyond the abuse scandals, the absolute luxury of the Vatican, and the ornate dress of its leaders is antithetical to the teachings of Jesus Christ. Pope Francis' estimated net worth at the time of his death was $16 million dollars. This is not to say every member of the Church is corrupt or there are not Godly people associated with it, it is just to say the Vatican itself is a political establishment wrapped in religious aesthetics.

Yea it's where I am too. I actually mind less about AAV. It is length of commitment that concerns me. 3 years $45m but I can get put after 2 years with no more than say a $6-7m dead cap? Yea I think I'm in.

Actually the person I was quoting was talking about them being cut.. and I said the bills was the place careers died 15 years ago And then I said they would get another contract Because there's worse back half of roster guys So I was implying if they got cut from the bills they would be signed from another team I also agreed with you that our draft picks have better measurables

TDS doesn't exist. It's a construct of loser MAGAs. Despising trump is not a syndrome. It's rational. I doubt the new pope despises him. He might well despise some or most of his policies. He seems to be against nontraditional families and certainly against abortion (as was Francis). That doesn't necessarily mean that he thinks all countries must have laws against abortion or that Catholic politicians who are against such laws should be excommunicated or censored (Francis did not).

I've gone back and forth on it but as of now this is where I'm at as well. My original thought was you let Cook walk so you can afford a true top 2 WR. But Beane clearly just isn't going to spend his money there. So Cook for the foreseeable future is easily our most explosive skill player. We aren't going to see deep passing TDs so without Cook our offense would have no easy button TDs on the menu, and it's just hard to run an offense with such a low margin for error. Cook's AAV will probably end up right around the combined cap hits of Ogunjobi and Tre White. No question I'd rather have Cook over those two, it's not even a debate in my mind. So I'm not sure paying him will actually negatively affect our team, it just means Beane will have to spend less money on defensive depth players which is a meaningless consequence to me.

And did he do the same for Obama (same sex marriage and abortion) and Biden (lgbtq and abortion)? Sounds like he has TDS

people who love architecture know Buffalo has some of the best Gothic revival, art nouveau, art Deco , Victorian and Greek revival in the country We have some of the best architecture in the country

https://nypost.com/2025/05/08/us-news/new-pope-leo-xiv-spent-years-retweeting-criticism-of-trump-policies/ His final X post before being elected by the Conclave in the Sistine Chapel was a retweet of a message from Philadelphia-based Catholic commentator Rocco Palmo, who on April 14 slammed Trump’s partnership with El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele on deportation of illegal migrants.

No preference at all. I just clumped a lot of guys together that seemed pretty similar from my view.

It looks like our work is done here. In just a couple days Dalton transformed from a skinny kid getting sand kicked in his face at Beaver Island to a muscle bound, super flex he man.

well, i also sized him up. he is definitely under 220 lbs.

Zubaz would be a great get for the Bills honestly. Make the restripe on the Buffalo Zubaz, and the stripes on the jersey? Or maybe the numbers? IDK. But if they go down this road and do it right, they won't be able to keep them on the shelves. I hope it isn't some riff on chicken wings. Ugh Reverting back to the identical jerseys to the NYG, errr I mean 90's Bills uniforms would be super "meh" to me.

You have way more faith in Elijah Moore than I do if that's your preference. Emmanuel Sanders is the only one that really stands out.

Prevost was not amongst the names being bandied about on social media in the days leading up to and during the conclave; one site did foresee an American being selected, however, and prepared a detailed bio on Prevost: Born in Chicago in 1955, Prevost holds degrees from Villanova University in Pennsylvania, Catholic Theological Union in Chicago and the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas in Rome. In 1985, Prevost joined the Augustinian mission in Peru in 1985, becoming part of the religious order inspired by St. Augustine that seeks to find a balance of "love and learning." Augustinian friars lead semi-monastic lives and are engaged in a range of pursuits, such as education or prison work. At age 30, Prevost went to work in Peru, serving there until 1999, with a brief stint back in Chicago in 1987 to work as pastor for vocations and director of missions for its Augustinian province. During his early years in Peru, Prevost wore a number of hats, including teaching in the diocesan seminary, serving as judge in a church court and leading a parish on the outskirts of the city of Trujillo. In 1999, Prevost was elected the head of the Augustinians' Chicago-based province. And then in 2001, he tapped as prior general of the worldwide order, which he led until 2013. During that time, he was based in Rome but spent most of his time on the road and in the air, visiting the nearly 50 countries where the Augustinian order is present. In 2014, Francis sent him back into the mission field, naming him bishop of Chiclayo, in northern Peru, where he served until the pope called him to Rome again for full-time service in the Roman Curia in 2023. https://redstate.com/terichristoph/2025/05/08/breaking-habemus-papam-the-catholic-church-has-a-new-pope-n2188838

I think we are having different conversations. I don’t mind the direction of the offseason at all. I’m just saying objectively, looking at the roster and the position groups that would most benefit from a good to very good player. QB - no HB - no WR - yes TE - maybe, but Kincaid is young OL - no DE - upgraded in offseason DT - upgraded in offseason LB - slight maybe CB - upgraded in offseason/draft S - yes That article quoted said the biggest need on the roster was WR. Phrased another way, like I did, is where would I take a top 15 player today. I think there’s a very good argument for WR, today. It’s not me bashing the offseason because I frankly think we needed a defensive overhaul. I look at the WR and safety groupings as “room for improvement,” aka they can be upgraded aka we need an upgrade there moreso than at running back or QB or the defensive needs that have already been addressed. It’s not “we should have taken a WR instead of Hairston,” its “we took all these defensive players, where else could we improve the roster.” Just my 2 cents.

Absolutely! I’ve shared this here before but we have a neighbor who is a very prominent architect and author. He does super high end residential properties all over creation. He saw the Bills stuff in our house and said his wife was going to the beach with friends but he’s not a beach guy. Instead, he was flying to Buffalo the next day to do his own architectural tour. People who know, know. He did send me a pic of wings and beer the next day. I said you have to try the pizza too! Seconds later I get a pic of his pizza. He’s a man of fine taste.

Huh? I believe the new pope is from Chicago. First American pontiff. Seems like the post had ZERO intent to be anti-ANYTHING! Relax.

If that were true we wouldn't have the list of atrocities from the Vatican throughout history. At some point the Vatican became something else political and not the Church. I'm not a historian to know exactly when but that's how I feel. I believe in the apostle's creed and recite it every night. I just don't maintain that a powerful human run organization is in lock step with the will of God the Father. If Satan is among us that is the first place he would attack (there is a bunch of closed churches around me that say that's true). Not everyone there is on the side of Good so hopefully we got one of the good guys!

as well interesting to note that the two punters (Camarda and Robbins) are wearing numbers 32 (OJ) and 40 (JD Hill) respectively...per Joe B and his peerless puntapalooza pointers.
