I wish we were bringing our kids in their Bills gear too but this is our first parents night away trip for my bday, so grandma is gonna spend the night at our house with the kids. They put out the tee times and pairings the night before We asked ChatGPT: “we are going to the ACC Golf Tournament practice rounds Wed and Thurs and my husband hopes to meet Josh Allen. How do we find out the times the celebrities are practicing in hopes of meeting Josh”. And it gave a detailed and great answer, so write something similar. But we are also booked to go rafting down the Truckee River at 12:30 on Thursday, so hoping we meet him Wednesday as we plan to only be there a little bit in the morning Thursday. DM me and we can grab a beer or something on Wednesday there By the way, not sure how old your kids are (mine are a little too young at 8 1/2 months and just over 2 years old), but if you want to do something awesome with the kids, rafting down the Truckee river is amazing. Starts at the mouth of Lake Tahoe and ends at a restaurant called river ranch. Then they bus you back to the start to get your car. It’s super easy just booze and float type rafting. Fun swimming along the way, relaxing, very small and light rapid spots, easy with kids. I grew up going up to Tahoe for the week of the 4th and rafting the river was my favorite part of the trip growing up. It’s about 45 min to an hour away from where the tourney is I think. https://www.google.com/aclk?sa=L&ai=DChsSEwivyc7Zr6yOAxUeB60GHQ1hDDEYACICCAEQAhoCcHY&co=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw4K3DBhBqEiwAYtG_9GLL2Us17AB0uBGs8-aTm3d-Kv209RLx595i8BSn9qKEgW3jijUvRhoCTvgQAvD_BwE&cce=1&sig=AOD64_04MvhZercbcTIVyv4OJf5mxelrOw&q&adurl&ved=2ahUKEwiB_snZr6yOAxUhHjQIHWAtKy0Q0Qx6BAgUEAE

Damn - my friends parents live in the same community. Was hoping to visit and then "bump" into him (some might call it rubbing up on him - tomato/tomatoe) at the clubhouse. My wife and I are gonna do an overnight in Lake Tahoe Wed and Thurs to do a little rafting and just an overnight trip for my bday away from the kiddos. And Josh is playing in a golf tournament there this week, so she surprised me with tickets to the practice rounds to see if we can "bump" into him or meet him and maybe get a pic or another autograph for my wall. She's the best

Twice I believe…and wasn’t the primary WR when he did

I am still curious to what he could have done in this offense with Josh and Brady

Ok this was funny...nice work

I understand, but you misunderstood the context of my statement. When I said "You can only operate off what is known, you can't condemn a kid for life off an allegation that is yet to be substantiated", that had nothing to do with TSW or peoples reactions here. It was about how Hairston should have been viewed and treated on draft night. That at some point, life goes on, and if he was cleared then all you can do is treat it as such and Beane, or any other team, on draft night rightfully treated it as he had been cleared. And no disrespect, bringing up Diddy is no where near relatable, not even 1%. What Diddy was found not guilty on they had weak evidence of from the start...you just listed a lot of things that were NOT part of the actual charges he beat, like the video tape. I wanted Diddy to go down as much as anyone, but I said it right from the start, people do not understand what he is actually charged with and most the hard evidence showing how bad of a person he is not supporting evidence against him pertaining to the more serious charges he was on trial for. With Hairston, there was no evidence, nothing to corroborate the story this woman accused Hairston of after multiple investigations, including the authorities. And what all of them said was that there was no evidence to support the claims and that the incident didn't appear to happen. And that may be correct or that may not be correct...but 5 years later, its the only thing anyone has to go on which is why teams like the Bills didn't rely only on that, they also did a deep dive and due diligence on character witnesses to try and best understand who he is and the type of person he is and weigh that as well, which he got rave reviews on as well, further supporting his proclamation of innocence that the investigation provided.

You can only operate off what is known, you can't condemn a kid for life off an allegation that has yet to be substantiated. One of my best friends in High School was accused of all kinds of crap from a psycho we worked with and he briefly dated. She would call the police and fabricate things on nights he was out with me and crashed at my house or I crashed at his house so they couldn't possibly be true. I was even staying at his house one night after we went to a Kings game in Sacramento where she showed up in a hoody and broke his car windows but then called the police and claimed he came to her house, roughed her up, and broke HER windows and then claimed he broke his own windows to frame her lol. She even tried to create accusations to get him kicked out of the Navy before he even left for bootcamp on some psychotic hope they could be together if he didn't leave for Texas. So only him and the accuser know the truth - but just because he didn't have money back then doesn't mean she wasn't capable of fabricating or exaggerating information either. And to be fair, no charges being filed does NOT mean innocence either. But the bottom line is that nothing was ever found to corroborate the accusation, and his name was cleared through thorough investigations by many different parties, including the police. So life has to go on, and people can only operate based on what they could find or determine. So until something else changes, this kid had his name cleared and there was nothing wrong with drafting him. And if something damning comes out that was previously unknown, I have no doubt Beane would make a correct and swift decision to release him. But on draft night, I wouldn't fault anyone for drafting him after all the investigations by authorities, schools, and teams found nothing on the matter.

Man - If this isn’t a testament to how remarkable his comeback was. I can’t believe he was able to play football again on that leg. What a heroic story and effort of determination after one of the most gruesome injuries in the sports history. Hats off to him 👏 #Warrior

💯 - but also...

lol now you are just getting silly. All good, to each their own

Is it really an opinion though? I mean the facts are pretty clear. Bakers QB rankings in the NFL last year were: 3rd in yards 2nd in TDs 7th in avg yards per pass 4th in QBR 3rd in comp % I think its more than just an opinion that he should not be in consideration for the last of the franchise guys. He was arguably a top 5 QB in the NFL last year. Like I said, there are guys who you listed worthy of consideration and open for debate for the dubious "last of the franchise guys"...but Baker right now is not one of them.

I get that, my point remains, Baker has no place in this conversation. There is no reality where he is a contender for the "last of the franchise" QB's right now, he is clearly in a tier above all of those guys and firmly in that 2nd tier behind the top dogs. And as I said, while Purdy is less cut and dry, I don't think he does either.

To be fair - after agents, managers, taxes and hookers its probably more like $40m lol
