May Day 10

I like Carr. Seems like a good dude.

Mayfield will spontaneously combust at the podium by week 5 playing in the NYC market. The Patriots are an interesting one. Lots of cap room. It does seem like they have a ton of holes, a very average roster... but somehow remain competitive. I wonder if they can dislodge Lamar Jackson. If Im a Patriots fan, Im really hoping they can belichick and rebuild the football program with a modern-day executive/coach. The Dolphins dont concern me too much. They are good, but they are a 1-2 trick pony: WR speed and good pass rush. That is easily beat and probably maxes out at 9-11 wins in any season. They also have a short window. The Jets are a bit of a concern with their young playmakers. With Jimmy G or something (if he can stay healthy), I can see them becoming kind of a San Francisco East type of team. Just a pain in the butt. The Bills were 1 game out in 2007 as well.

It's high times as a bills fan. Hope it lasts a long time, but never should be taken for granted. The jets actually concern me more long-term than the Dolphins.

There are more capable quarterbacks now than ever imo. As mentioned, I think you can really run into trouble on the o-lines. You would be more likely to see some putrid o-lines in the league which would ruin that team(s).

I've never seen Grand Island walloped like this.

He is not on the Mt Rushmore. I don't believe he was all that "can't miss" and was drafted more on potential and skill set. It does probably stings for jets fans that they don't have fields I'd say akili Smith, mandarich, Joey Harrington, Ryan leaf, David Carr, boz, Andre ware, tim couch, and maybe same Bradford were all worse busts and would be more memorable candidates for the Mt Rushmore of busts.

I hope you maintain power. Nothing gets my anxiety up like the failed sump and finished (uninsured/un-permitted) basement issue. My sump failed about a month before the construction of the basement during a 4 day rain event. It wasn't pretty. With the new sump, I got the battery backup hooked up to the water line. Still anxious about it. Might splurge for the full-on backup generator this summer

I can vouch for Hulu live having an awful interface and youtube TV much better

I wasnt comfortable with Apple getting it either. Over time I have had nothing but bad experiences with all their proprietary hardware and software, attempting to force you into their ecosystem. I doubt they would just give the package away out of the goodness of their heart without re-couping the money out of our wallets. Not super pleases about Youtube TV/google, but at least im a PC/android/google user.

This 100%. 2 more. When someone parks their cart and stares at items on the shelf as if they are making a decision their life depends on and are taking up 8 linear feet of shelf space. I can see the 1 specific item I want/need but I have to wait for the Walking Dead to get out of the way. When we are leaving the store to the front of the checkout lanes and the person in front of me's brain starts malfunctioning and they just stop to either check their receipt, or adjust items in their purse.

Its poetic justice, but the Patriots are a perfect reflective image of the drought-era Bills. Now, complete with jarring bone-headed losses that leave fans shaking their heads... but also fools everyone into thinking you are good enough to win games. They are now a behind-the-times nepotistic crusty old football program. Coached and built just well (if it were 1956) enough to win between 40 to 55% of their games, and reactively plugging holes that appear each offseason only to see more pop up. Never bad enough to truly get a good look at a cant-miss QB prospect or collect other high-end talent. Quarterback purgatory.

The bills got lucky on maybe 3 "coin flip" dpi calls when they were on defense on some pivotal plays. I'll give them that.

It would have happened anywhere. There was a copious amount of snow, perfect for packing snowballs waiting inside the stadium for 70,000 people,many of which were drinking alcohol for several hours. If I had to choose and could press a button to control everyone's mind to have no snowballs, I'd choose that. But it was what it was and will go down in the lore of big games in that stadium. There is quite a bit of irony that the Dolphins were the opponent. That game in week 3 could have been a life threatening situation and it's frankly gross they put the opposition through that purposely. Especially in the first half, the Dolphins side was getting blasted with snow. When the players and coaches broke for the half, the contrast between the sides (tons of snow/residual snowball hits on the turf vs a totally clean bills side) was kind of funny.

Im not even sure how anyone could figure out what he is saying there. The audio is so bad. Or even how anyone found that. What the hell is that thing anyway? What a dweeb that one guy is trying so hard to get a "look". Belt over the shoulder, winter hat, sunglasses. ugh.

Goofy podcast and a thought got away from him. I don't think he should be buried for it

I have said it numerous times this season. They miss Beasley big time. If he can contribute, the offense will be much more efficient

Yeah, to me, it isnt a roof vs no roof debate... That Northtowns stadium location idea seems interesting if for no other reason than to get the thing away from the snow belt

I always think that in hockey especially... these guys have perfected the efficiency of movement so much, as well as conditioning and nutrition. I really think you could take a bottom pairing defenseman in 2022, put him in 1980 and he would be a superstar.

If McDavid played in the 70s or 80s he would score comfortably over 100 goals a season.

I would be so uninspired if Fraser were hired as the new coach of my favorite NFL team. He would have been the typical hire of the 2001-2012 Bills

Its the Bengal way

I dont know. I get why it is offputting and offenses are weaponizing it. But I can see how an attempt at a black and white rule will have a million unintended consequences. I dont think it should be a penalty if they outlaw it. Maybe say the ball is/was dead at that spot. I can see a big 3rd and 1 or something and something was kind of a push, but not really, maybe accidental contact results in a 5 yard penalty completely changing a game.

It is pretty bad. I lived there for awhile and kind of adopted the Phillies as my team for a bit. I witnessed some terrible things. I attended some Sabres playoff games there. A lot of it was fun as I had the right attitude about it, but there are lunatics there who take it too far. Id imagine the Eagles are x10. If I were to do it, id do it like I did the Sabres games... splurge and get premium seats. Higher-end clientele, you arent with gen-pop, exclusive bathrooms. If the game doesnt go well for the eagles, consider losing the jersey for the walk to the car. People typically dont fight in the parking lot(s) at the tailgate and the way into the stadium.

If all the games go the Bills' way the next 2 weeks, they can clinch the #1 seed by beating the bears

what a finish
