  1. you're right. he won't use this windfall to pay for his obligation toward cost of building. This is for the family lifestyle fund.
  2. 49ers in free fall. Rams have 1, maybe 2 quality wins. Stafford has 13 TDs in 10 games. Scored 15 points vs Fins...with Nacua and Kupp back in the lineup.
  3. "planned impotence"? nah
  4. This is disingenuous, at best. A football broadcast is 3 hours plus. Scanning the stands and showing fans between plays is common and falls in that total time, regardless of who they are scanning. The screen doesn't go blank between live plays..... Anyone who doesn't understand why the NFL (the most valuable entertainment company in the world) would exploit the presence of the most famous (and lucrative) entertainer in the world currently (with a massive female base), really doesn't understand what they are watching.
  5. It's 79% yes. other than giving away 25% for nothing vs giving away 20% for 1.1 billion? No reason I can think of...
  6. minority owners have existed for years in the NFL. It's not a problem, and can't be. This was inevitable and makes sense. The financial value of an NFL team isn't material to an owner until he sells the team (obviously the tens or hundreds of millions in annual margin every year is nice too). What better way to put a large chunk of money in your pocket than cashing out a bit of your team while still controlling everything and owning the vast majority of the team's value? The crazy increases over the last 5-10 years and current valuations made this too tempting for the owners to pass up. This could be good for the public actually. Owners trying to steal taxpayer money from a municipality for a new stadium may meet with a local/state negotiating team who can point out that the team owner can easily fund all or most of his new stadium by selling part of his team.
  7. Beyond the constant Ravens and Chiefs chatter, not as much. We kind of laughed when they hired the kneecap nibbler as HC. But that guy can coach. Look at Goff--Boy Genius McVay couldn't figure him out (that Lombardy with Stafford's name on it is sinking their ship--20 wins since). Bills Lions will be the game of the year for the NFL
  8. he could be a decent 3/4.
  9. lol true fixed!
  10. you typed it so you must be one of them
  11. These are nonvoting, minority owners. They can have no meaningful say in how the team is run. They get a nice suite and a can't lose, massive ROI as well as an annual dividend. Why does anyone think any of these people would want to mess with that? Pegula doesn't want to pay a penny for the stadium. So he sells PSLs as well as bits of his team so he can keep his money. Nothing wrong with that (except he should ditch any talk of PSLs now that he will take in a billion from these minority owners). Hospitals do NOT want you to stay an extra day. Length of stay numbers are fretted over by any hospital administration because they are paid for discharges--and reimbursement is based on diagnosis codes and procedure facility fees for a patient's stay. A long stay without other significant billable events is a money loser at some point in the hospital stay. The hospital wants you out ASAP so they can fill your bed with the next dischargeable patient. Plus an overfull hospital can slow down the golden goose--the operating room, where the vast majority of the hospital revenue is generated. Covid cost hospital systems billions mainly because they shut down surgeries. But after that it was because they couldn't get elderly covid patients out of the hospital. They hogged all the beds.
  12. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5930653/2024/11/19/nfl-power-rankings-week-12-lions-bills-coaches/ Lions #1:--this team is not really being talked about much it seems: "The Lions are 23-7 (including playoffs) since the beginning of last season. They had 38 first downs and outgained the Jaguars by 475 yards Sunday. Detroit has beaten three teams by at least 38 points this season, and its point differential (plus-15.9 per game) is on pace to be second-highest in the NFL since at least 2000 behind only the 2007 Patriots, according to TruMedia" Bills #2: "Sean McDermott is not going to be fully embraced in Buffalo until he at least gets the Bills to the Super Bowl, but ending the Chiefs’ perfect season is good for morale. McDermott, who is 82-43 since taking the job in 2017, has gone to only one conference title game, and Kansas City ended the Bills’ season there. Sunday established the Bills as a real contender this season, but they’re going to have to prove it again and probably against the same old foe." KC #3: "That’s not a typo that should read cold. Andy Reid’s seat is a throne. The 66-year-old will leave Kansas City when he’s ready and not before. He’s under contract through the 2029 season, and that contract is worth $100 million, according to Sportico. Reid needs 62 more wins to pass Don Shula and become the NFL’s all-time winningest coach in the regular season. He would have to stay on a torrid pace to get there by the end of this contract, but he’s on a torrid pace now." Ravens #8 (big drop): John Harbaugh's coaching seat "temperature check" went from "cold" to "cool" Interesting fact: Jim Harbaugh's NFL winning % (.696) is 5th all time and #1 among active HC's.
  13. when was the worst WR roster in team history?
  14. why would they get rid of their best player?
  15. yes, his 3 games, 10 targets, 7 catches really turned around a WR room that had to that point been the "worst in franchise history"...
  16. you mean getting rid of Diggs
  17. Pierce is gone for sure. This is the clown show staff he has assembled: Marvin Lewis Rob Ryan Norv Turner Joe Philbin Carnell "Cadillac" Williams It looks like a UFL launch announcement of their HC's.
  18. guy has 22 targets all year. if he's living in there, he's in the basement...
  19. which trade were you referring to?
  20. 2022-23 (featuring Diggs, Davis, Knox, Shakir, Singletary) was the worst WR unit in franchise history??
  21. there are too many flags these days---it's ruining the game!!! there should be more flags thrown on these plays---it's ruining the game!!!
  22. huh? which one is the surrogate?
  23. hey, if he wants a REAL Bills mafia experience. Browns fans can jump on tables for chrissakes
  24. had to. we saw the 2 best head to head...it wasn't close last night.
