  1. Wasn't really the point of the post. More pointing out the obvious struggles this team has had drafting a starting CB since Tre 5 years ago. But..Dallas was probably only looking at O-line at 24, based on what was left of 1st round quality picks. There was plenty of time for a team behind the Bills to trade into 24. No one called the Cowboys.
  2. yet Siran Neal, Taran Johnson, Jaquon Johnson, Dane Jackson and Rachad Wildgoose are why the Bills just traded up in a reach for this kid in the 1st.....
  3. mullet and jorts
  4. I believe it's Armani
  5. "We want them to feel like they're approaching a football game," that's exactly what NBC and Fox were saying before week 1 of USFL.....
  6. in for 100
  7. I think he married into it
  8. is this another cloning thread?
  9. Shaq: "he won 2 in a row Chuck"...
  10. If the rest of Durant's career never happened, I would definitely agree with you.....
  11. I didn't see it. But if it helps your fantasy, you can imagine I did....
  12. Well, better than that fraud on the Lakers. But Durant can look back on his back to back Rings AND Finals MVPs in 2017, 2018. You know, because he's not a leader. Also, who, maybe besides Jordan, ever "won it on his own"? I have to say, when you KDIGGZ a hole, you certainly keep diving in no matter how badly you are suffering. The fact that you bumped this goofy thread proves you are a masochist.
  13. Well I certainly understand NFL isn’t like other businesses. You are the one who, too many times to count, has compared it to every other business in an effort to point out I don’t understand “how business works”. Leaving this aside, in paragraph 1 you very convincingly explain why an owner “is stuck in a city” and the extreme difficulty in moving because “you can’t open a franchise anywhere you want”. Yet in paragraph 3 you state one of only 2 choices is “the team leaves”. Also, that there is no “3rd choice”. Of course there is. The public entities can call the teams bluff (“Austin” and “like San Diego” we’re laughable lies) and make the owner kick in a few hundred million more. Boom. Ticket prices? Leaving aside that’s icing on cake money for most owners and the secondary market determines what a lot of what in person attendees pay (and the vast vast majority of fans never set foot in the stadium), the cost will go “through the roof” for 50,000 season ticket holders already in the current deal via PSLs. No matter what the ticket prices would have been if Pegula has to cover the majority of the stadium costs, they would never be in the top 10 in the NFL. It’s a meaningless argument anyway. People will chose to pay or not to pay based on the perceived value. The market will force Pegulas pricing. He won’t tolerate a half empty stadium.
  14. Did the space you rent exist before you occupied it? If you vacate the space, will the owner demolish the buildings? Did the public fisc build your buildings for you? What is about this particular business that the owners of the Rams, Patriots, Jets and Giants (heck, even the Cowboys) don’t understand that you can help them with?
  15. What's with the Good Morning Football fetish?
  16. I run a small business and I am a tenant in a hospital based setting. Stick to what you know and save yourself the struggle of guessing what I don't.
  17. After the PSL's, there will be much less than 25% funded by the Pegulas themselves. Again, as said above, the stadium as an asset isn't worth much. It replaces another asset serving the same purpose that is essentially paid for, recently renovated for 130 million and soon to be demolished. It can't be sold as a property because no other business has a use for it other than it's future sole tenant.
  18. Not true for all types of homes. Co-ops in the city for example. Until the mortgage is paid, the bank holds your "share" (like a deed) to the apartment you purchased. But the fact remains, as you say: I am a homeowner.
  19. I have a mortgage which I will pay a bank over time. I'm still called a "homeowner" before I fully pay it off. There doesn't need to be another way than that. Kroenke didn't pull out his wallet and hand his contractors 5 billion. He financed the vast majority of it. He's on the hook for that. Of course a business owner pays for the building he/she has built--and it is payed off with the business's revenue.
  20. "Pegula" will pay a fraction of that 40% you cite.
  21. No one is arguing otherwise. The point is....owners simply want it anyway.
