Birmingham has WR Deon Cain, who was on the Bills practice squad last season.

if players take a boatload of money they should have to guarantee multiple years at a school Schools are not going to take fishing out all this money just for them to transfer 9 months NFL players sign contracts and cannot transfer... That's going to be a rule sooner than later If they're getting paid they have to commit.. you can't take 2 million dollars just for a red shirt and then leave That's also ruining the integrity of amateur Athletics That's why all of this is messed up.. college football players have been getting paid for a long time Under the table But now it's destroying the landscape

Yes, I think of you nearly non stop. Which ironically is still short of how much you think of reposting random peoples political vomit on a Buffalo Bills message board. I would admit determining who is more sad would be difficult to say. But only one of the two statements is actually true.

He’s actually correct once you detach yourself from right wing media

"Mostly peaceful protests in LA, Waukesha and Seattle." Same people: "January 6th was the worst attack on the US since Pearl Harbor!"

I was mostly being sarcastic. Deploying the NG wasn't a political stunt. If they had deployed them before things got violent, sure.

Well, that's what the nation has turned into, so the athletes should get as much as they can get... the free market should work for everyone. Survival of the fittest, and those other programs who can't afford to spend the money are out of luck.

Temple of the Dog and Pearl Jam suck!!!!!

Two digit? Are you including a number after a decimal point? Because from this vantage point, you seem to be giving him more credit than he is due.

You would have handed Anne Frank over to the Germans, no doubt about it.

@BillsFanNC at the potential for reposting X content

Hoax. Are you the DC coroner? Nope. Just a loser in a basement somewhere.

I never alluded to knowing what I was talking about, 🤣

The National Guard. It's an interesting read but it's a left leaning author.

Looks like Kash might be about to net his biggest fish:

What is? The riots or the NG being deployed?

ZERO

Interesting. The author seems to think this is a political stunt reading through the whole thing. That's at least my interpretation of it.

Yeah, they're there in a support role at present. And hopefully their presence is a deterrent to further escalation. If not then...they'll need to be dealt with.

Agreed. Time to give up on the minor league off-season football concept. I've always said the only way it works is if the teams are affiliated with NFL teams. The Syracuse Bills or something stupid like that, functioning as a kind of football AAA or NBA G League - some players on a two-way contract, some ringers. That gets me interested in seeing what kind of talent my team has at the minor league level. But there's a whole host of reasons why that model doesn't work, with the CBA being the prime one.

Law prof Steve Vladeck (read his Substack! He's great. Written for lawyers but understandable by informed non-lawyers) provides a little sanity here: There are a lot of misunderstandings and misinformation out there about what Trump has and hasn’t done, and given that I’ve covered these topics before, it seemed worth a quick explainer on why this move is a big deal—but why it also is not as drastic an escalation (or abuse) as many had feared, at least not yet. The TL;DR here is that Trump has not (yet) invoked the Insurrection Act, which means that the 2000 additional troops that will soon be brought to bear will not be allowed to engage in ordinary law enforcement activities without violating a different law—the Posse Comitatus Act. All that these troops will be able to do is provide a form of force protection and other logistical support for ICE personnel. Whether that, in turn, leads to further escalation is the bigger issue (and, indeed, may be the very purpose of their deployment). But at least as I’m writing this, we’re not there yet. That's a critical point. Right now, the National Guard troops cannot engage in law enforcement activities. They are limited to a support role. Use of the Insurrection Act would bring us into a whole new era. Let's hope we don't get there. https://www.stevevladeck.com/p/156-federalizing-the-california-national
