    You’re absolutely right! Rainy game. We had comp tix at the 50 yard line, right under the MNF crew. Friends in St. Louis saw me as the sideline camera rode up and I jumped up waving, wearing a Niagara Mowhawk raincoat. THERE’S an old reference..

    I like the throwback uniforms/helmets as well. I am curious as to why the Bills don't bring back the blue over white throwbacks. They have been wearing the all white throwbacks (which look awesome ) for a number of years. 

    Not sure, but IMHO, the Blue or White Throwbacks from the mid 60's , rank up in the top 5 of classic uni's.. in no particular order, the other 4, the Chicago Black Hawks white , obviously the NY Yankees, GB Packers  home, and the Chargers royal blue of the mid 60's

    I wouldn't mind seeing it every now and then, but I love the whites. As a matter of fact, current unis are far superior to anything we've ever had. I won't be accepting any counterarguments at this time.

    Totally agree, i like the standing Buffalo White helmets even better. but OK, wear the Reds if they so choose once in a while

    There is currently no state-mandated compulsory vaccination for COVID, but if there were then he, nor anyone else, has any Constitutional right to refuse absent a genuine medical reason to do so.  American jurisprudence on this topic is over 100 years old and fairly settled. 

     

    Individual liberty is not absolute and is subject to the police power of the state.  Per Justice Harlan:  

     

    "[I]n every well ordered society charged with the duty of conserving the safety of its members the rights of the individual in respect of his liberty may at times, under the pressure of great dangers, be subjected to such restraint, to be enforced by reasonable regulations, as the safety of the general public may demand"

     

    and...

     

    "Real liberty for all could not exist under the operation of a principle which recognizes the right of each individual person to use his own [liberty], whether in respect of his person or his property, regardless of the injury that may be done to others."

     

    and finally...

     

    "[In] extreme cases [for certain individuals] in a particular condition of . . . health, [the requirement of vaccination would be] cruel and inhuman[e], [in which case, courts would be empowered to interfere in order to] prevent wrong and oppression."

     

    Jacobson v. Massachusetts, 197 U.S. 11 (1905).

    Your point??
