  1. This place never ceases to amaze me. An obscure reference to a song from the 1946 musical, “Annie Get Your Gun”. Can anyone connect the dots here? Who was Annie and what made her famous?
  2. After further review, “The Legion of Room” is the clear winner.
  3. Whoever you are please don’t ever stop doing this.
  4. Somebody named their restaurant Adolfs?
  5. There is stuff to do on Ohio? Sorry can’t help myself.
  6. Sadly I think he was washed a year ago.
  7. Since I don’t believe we will punt again, I’m guessing Cameron is good at ball holding.
  8. In case any of you were wondering these two elderly gentleman are referencing a song by The Coasters from 1956.
  9. When Knox goes in motion, Ravens show man. Josh knows exactly where he is going. That pass was perfect and it had to be.
  10. I’m sorry, what? I wasn’t paying attention. I think the problem is people don’t read.
  11. As soon as my wife left the room to go get ready for bed, the game turned. When the Bills were down 8 I told her she should come back. She declined, saying they were doing better without her watching. When Bills were down 2, again I told her to comeback, again she declined for the same reason. I think you should all send your appreciation with a small cash gift.
  12. Not personal, I don’t know the man. I don’t prejudge people I don’t know. Based on the facts, which briefly are that a young man with great athletic ability, will earn at least a quarter of a billion dollars and create a legacy for his family. Stupid people don’t have that success. Now get in your last word.
  13. But you know this? He saved between $3m-$8m by not having an agent. I live a couple of miles from where Jackson played high school football, I’ve paid attention to his trajectory for years. These are not stupid people. He and his mother made sure he was going to be a QB, they moved to make that happen in high school. They changed his college commitment from Florida to Louisville, because Petrino guaranteed he would play QB. He won the Heisman as a sophomore. At the NFL combine he refused to try out as a WR. He gets drafted in the first round, negotiates his own contract using an attorney, because rookie contracts are slotted, no need to waste money on an agent. He becomes one of the NFLs premier QBs, wins MVP twice, gets Ravens in the playoffs six times. Negotiates a $260m contract and somehow you have reached the conclusion that he is stupid.
  14. They paid a lawyer to do that, the lawyer gets paid a fee, not a percentage of the contract. A contract attorney would have access to other players contracts.
  15. Per the Washington Post, agents will receive between 1.5 percent and up to 3 percent, which is the maximum for contracts. For Jackson, that means he could have lost up to $7.8 million to an agent, if he were to lose 3 percent of the full $260 million. He also could have lost a minimum of $2,775,000, had he lost 1.5 percent of the $185 million.
  16. Yeah, he negotiated his own$260m contract, saved about $8m by not having an agent, what an idiot.
  17. It was like what the Bills did on their second and third possessions.
  18. So complicated, it’s why there aren’t 32 guys in the world that can play Quarterback in the NFL.
  19. Thank you
  20. You all have forgotten to mention that Hawes went to Yale. Going forward it is required that this be noted by every poster, if it is not it will go on your permanent record. Thank you for your cooperation.
  21. Sportscaster thoughts are,”Bills won but”. I’m going to keep repeating this, Bills won the game, total yards, time of possession, first downs and turnovers.
  22. Bills won game, total yards, first downs, time of possession and turnovers, but according to talking heads, Bills have problems. That is probably correct, defense needs to be better. However the Ravens gave up 251 passing yards in the fourth quarter, but their defense is loaded.
