Bar Bill can take care of you for both the Beef on Weck and the Wings. I think its the best place to be able to knock out both of those. They have combos for them and they are both excellent there. Anchor Bar is not good and is just a tourist destination really. Duffs is also good though if you want to go for just wings.
For Buffalo style pizza, I prefer Bocci's, Franco's, Imperial, and Santora's. Imperial and Santora's are good for sitting down and eating there. Bocci's and Franco's not so much. Unaware of garbage plates in Buffalo, I think its more of a Rochester thing, but maybe someone else knows.
Have fun!

Much respect to the talent of Rush, but I really like only a few of their songs.

Screw the jags and Urban Meyer. He lost 100% of any respect for him I had when he was protecting that wife beating assistant of his. I can't wait till he crashes and burns in the NFL and quits after 2 or 3 seasons for "health reasons."

I've already seen him do commercials. He's on a national one for the Draft right now. Been on local for a couple years now.

I will rush to judgement. I'm sorry, but 14 suits now? This is not a money grab. This scumbags career is over.

KR shouldn't be too hard to upgrade, he was good for us but I'm not sure he was game-changing good. Rather the dollars and attention be spread elsewhere.
How many fumbles did he have while he was here? 1 this year that I can remember. His security catching the punts will be missed.

What is the price of tulips?
Well, I can tell you this, if the price of a share of GME rose to the levels that the price of a bulb reached I am going to be one happy camper since that was estimated to be above a skilled laborers salary for an entire year per bulb before it crashed and I would be long gone by that point!

Just in case you are not paying attention - Gamestop is over $240 again.

I think you people are crazy. If I'm Houston I want more than Lawrence for him. Watson is a bona fide, proven top 5 NFL QB. Lawrence is a great college player who hasn't played a down in the NFL. Speculate all you want about his future, Watson is a sure thing though.

Does he also have experience refueling F-16s mid flight?
Who knows, but if Top Gun on NES is any indication, its the most difficult thing on the planet to do.

Just imagine you're his teammate, maybe special teams player or a defensive player, and you get a random text before the game. All it says is We Will Win, and its from the GOAT of all time. I know if that happens to me, I'm f'n pumped. I'm ready to prove everyone wrong. Having a guy like him goes beyond just what he is doing on the field. Could someone else have thrown 20 for 26 with 3TDs and 0 turnovers through 3 Quarters (can't believe people question his performance with these numbers)? Sure. Could 20 other QBs have their team as prepared and motivated with as much as he contributes to those areas? Get the f' out of here with that crap. The number is probably below 5.

These two are both killer 2000s albums. Rock/stoner rock style that most have no idea exist.

As par for my investment course beyond mutual funds...I had some bitcoin when it was at $3.5k a few years ago. Man, am I dumb sometimes.

I thought this thread was going to be about hard hitting, defenses allowed to defend receivers without getting flags, etc. If it were, I would have agreed with you 100%.

Sure the defense played stellar, but Brady and the offense played just as stellar. 31 points through the first 3 quarters before they went into game management mode. KC wasn't stopping them at all. They very well may have won a shootout too.

No, it wasn't just CTE. That almost certainly played a part of it, but there was more to the entire story.
2 hours ago, DrDawkinstein said:It wasnt all CTE. CTE often becomes the convenient excuse/scapegoat because we have such a warped view of mental illness and emotional struggle in this country. These guys would rather blame it on a brain injury than admit they have issues that are not so physical and far more abstract, nuanced, and therefore trickier to treat.
2 hours ago, BillsShredder83 said:You think a permanently injured brain (from football) wouldn't make it hard to adjust back? Nobody is saying you need to donate money, it doesn't cost anything to try and put yourself in their shoes. It's a different set of problems than us with 9-5s, doesn't make it less valid
What I'm saying is that CTE is the major contributor to suicides for former NFL players. CTE has been shown to lead to depressions, confusion, and other brain issues, right? I would like to see a study of suicide rates of former players without CTE damage compared to that of the general population. If it's higher (statistically significantly higher to show a correlation) then I can buy off on the "Oh it's so hard to adjust to normal life" talk track. I would venture to guess, yes guess as I have no idea, that it isn't and the issues of depression, suicide, psychosis, etc. are raised to a statistically significant amount only when CTE is involved as the catalyst.
In no way am I an expert on the subject, but from my limited knowledge that is how I understand it. Please inform me otherwise if I'm wrong.

Story here.
Yeah, that's bound to work out well. And the GM has already said Tua is the starter.
What is Flores smoking? He arguably coached the Fish out of a playoff berth last season with his botching of the QB situation, and now he's on his 3rd/4th OC in three seasons.
This division should be the Bills' to own for years.
Hum...they won 5 games in 2019 when people thought they'd go 0-16. Last year they almost made the playoffs when most had them finishing last (or 3rd) in division pre-season. Unfortunately I think Flores knows what he is doing and has exceeded expectations each season. I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt here until he proves he doesn't deserve. This is the team we need to be worried about. Can't believe people are disregarding Tua so quickly after 1 season, one in which he probably wasn't 100% recovered from his hip injury. I kinda sorta remember JA not looking that great in a lot of his first seasons games. Yeah, I know, throwing strength yada yada yada, thats why he's compared to Brees a lot and he worked out OK.

He's not lying though. Look at Seau. He killed himself because he couldn't adjust to life after the game. I'm sure a lot of the things he talks about are legit struggles many of these athletes go through. Others have talked about the physical toll the game takes on your body, addictions to prescription drugs, money problems, and numerous other situations. It's something I think about often because my youngest son says this is what he wants to do, play football. He's extremely good at it and loves to hit people. From the beginning, starting at 8 years old, it's like a switch flips when he puts the pads on and buckles that chin strap. I'm not saying I know for certain he will make it to the NFL, but when you look at the bigger picture the question I ask myself is whether I really want him to or not.
He killed himself because of CTE, not because he couldn't adjust after the game but because his brain was so damaged that it was torturing his thoughts to the point he couldn't take it anymore.

So your 'movement' consisted of getting some sucker to buy at $170 by pumping your stock in a Buffalo Bills thread?
In no way encouraged anyone to do anything. In fact, i specifically said I do not recommend getting involved. I'm just discussing the subject and offering my opinions on it same as everyone else.

Guess who is showing signs of life again? Yep, that's right. Up about 30% in last 2 days.
Reasons:
- rumors of a fundamental shift in their business model which would support re-selling of digital games.
- stock vote on board members which many believe will expose naked short selling and trigger "the real" squeeze when the vote counts shows higher than the available shares that could vote
Still in for a whopping 8 shares since January.
