Underwater welders GET PAID PREMIUM PAY for their job, though...

Leonard Smith was one of the toughest Bills to ever play the game and he was passionate as hell... one of my absolute favorites and meeting him at a tailgate with Andre Reed in 1999 was just an amazing day.

We have a real problem with associating money with success... all money does is allow a person to do more of what they want the more they have of it- it doesn't make them better or smarter, it just makes them rich. They don't want to pay RBs nearly as much because of their propensity for injury and wearing out a lot sooner... fine. That being said, if they are going to do that, they should be taken care of monetarily or through medical benefits that are commensurate with the extra wear and tear they place on their bodies. Frankly I am surprised that football remains as it is because of the cases of CTE that keep cropping up- these men want to be able to live comfortably after their career and the RB position is especially brutal. That being said, THEY APPROVED THE CBA and they must accept partial blame for this.

Personally I think Ryan Day is in serious jeopardy after 2024 if he can't beat Xichigan... and I am also very concerned about the state of QB play as well going forward. When the playoff expands is when we will know what's what... I just hope that they get the QB right.

Brandon Staley is the limiting factor... I would not be surprised if Sean Payton coaches up the Broncos to have a better record than the Chargers. Staley is brutal.

Your assumption that you have greater intelligence is your downfall. Global CEOs aren't worth meeting in my opinion... I'm much rather meet important people, like teachers or volunteers.

It's not worth it... I got off his merry-go-round arguments when I saw it wasn't going anywhere... he believes in a narrative and is sticking with it.

So now beef on weck is "garbage food" and "Applebees quality"? Man, some of you need a hobby or a hug or both, because some of us don't have ANY options for beef on weck or anything remotely WNY. 🙄

Newspapers and television were the only game in town for news in 1990... you can't be serious. To say that they should be charging the same amount an adjusted for inflation is a joke... no wonder they are failing.

Good... the quality decreased greatly while the price increased greatly. They shouldn't BE in business if they don't understand basic economics.

It's not a matter of "getting over it" but historically if it is good or bad, nothing more.

Protecting the lives of people and taking a stand against hate and discrimination isn't an absolute disaster... it was the right thing to do.

Are you going to Crete, Rhodes or Cyprus? I have been to Crete several times and Rhodes once on deployments back in the 2000s and both were amazing places. I would LOVE to get some fried goats cheese in Crete or the souvlaki pita in Rhodes again... highly recommend either

The reason why he had a low turnover rate was that he would do the bare minimum to push the ball down the field! He was obviously more interested in his stats instead of winning games. Case in point... Josh Allen tied his Bills mark for 4th quarter comebacks in just 16 games started. It took Tyrod three full seasons just to get 5, and our 2018 team was one of the worst total offensive skill position teams in years. Tyrod didn't win a majority of those games... he played not to lose and it's why he didn't do much of anything after he left.

Thank you all for your responses and thoughtful answers! I am 50 years old, so at the beginning of the Super Bowl run I was 17. Although the results were bad, I don't consider those years bad... it was an awesome time and it was so fun to be a Bills fan, long before instant opinion social media sapped a lot of the fun away.

So I am just curious... as Bills fans, do you all consider four straight Super Bowl losses bad or no? This was inspired by a response from another thread, and I am genuinely curious as to how others feel.

Umm NO, I do not...

In case you haven't seen it... the sicko who owns Doral was found liable in a court of law for sexual abuse against E. Jean Carroll, like it or not.

Fashion and playing a golf tournament on a sexual abuser's golf course are two totally different things.

So? Nobody else has been to four straight, before or after, so if you consider that part of the history of the Bills to be that bad then I feel sorry for you.

This is the researcher and historian in me

Beasley goes into the same bucket as Willis McGahee, Vontae Davis and Dusty Ziegler... I don't give AF... bottom of the barrel

Sorry, but this "governmental regulation" and "lifestyle" doesn't wash... the changes in population by decade proves that Wyoming has factors which stunted its growth like the ones they talked about on the video: Wyoming vs. Colorado by decade, 1900-1950 (rounded up) 1900 93,000 to 540,000 1910 146,000 to 800,000 1920 194,000 to 940,000 1930 206,000 to 1,036,000 1940 251,000 to 1,124,000 1950 290,000 to 1,325,000 So basically the population of Wyoming increased by just under 200,000 in 50 years while Colorado increased by 785,000 in 50 years. I sincerely doubt either one of those issues factored much into the changes in population between 1900 and 1950 at all.

I was just curious... the Dust Bowl devastated the area where my grandfather was from, and so I get why the Dakotas emptied, but Wyoming be so much less populated had me curious... couldn't resist looking into it.

It's very interesting that he brought up farming... I watched this video last month, and it explains in great detail why Wyoming is much less populated than Colorado, and also why there is a lot less land for farms (I know Josh is from California, FYI). Just informational... I love these sort of historical videos.
