  1. Yes, but we're not going to get Will Wolford back and the Pats aren't going to get those picks back.
  2. Thought this was going to be a thread about prostate/prostate cancer...
  3. I remember that ESPN had a camera on him they cut to often during the first 39 picks as 7 running backs were selected before him, 5 in the first and 2 in the second round (in those days the draft was 2 days, I think is was rounds 1-3 on day 1 but it could have been more.) The dejection in Thurm's face was obvious. The Bills did not pass on him as they had no round 1 pick that year (the party line was the first round pick was Bennett, they just got him a year early.)
  4. In 2018 at Auburn it was 4.37 https://nfldraftlounge.com/2022-nfl-draft-scouting-report-liberty-qb-malik-willis/
  5. I did not check to verify but assuming the Bills do indeed play both in 2922, they would not play either again until 2926.
  6. If they split and it is the lone loss for both teams they could meet a third time a month later in the playoffs...not unlike the Bills/Patriots meeting 3x in 40 odd days this season
  7. Old Polish saying, Experience is an expensive teacher, but a fool will learn from no other (actually it's a Japanese proverb but it was told to me by an old Polish guy)
  8. I mean, to paraphrase that guy on the Progressive commercial, Let's not talk about replacing him until he's actually interviewed for another job!
  9. According to the link in the OP, "In his press conference after the game, Prescott said the intended play was something he and his teammates had practiced. "We've practiced it," Prescott said. "You hand it to the center. The umpire, all he has to do is usually come in and tap the ball. Don't necessarily know exactly ... why the hit (with the official) happened, I guess. Yeah, I know he's going to come in and touch the ball. We could say, 'Yeah, he needs to be closer to the ball,' or whatever, but in hindsight, it's just tough. Just tough to accept."
  10. Pay from the car, at the pump ...are there other options now
  11. Lead singer of the Ronettes, older folks here remember a lot (or at least a few) of their songs. Toured with The Rolling Stones. Thank you for your contributions to the music industry. Billy Joel's Say Goodbye to Hollywood was written for her, somehow seems appropriate now. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/ronnie-spector-dies-age-78-cancer/
  12. Be up front, don't make excuses, if someone asks you if you want to go to the game and you really don't just say "I'll pass, too cold"
  13. Before McDermott we were referring to the Wade Phillips era as the good old days!
  14. 1. Hate to say it, 2007 Patriots🤮 2. 1985 Chicago Bears 3. 1990 Buffalo Bills 4. 1998 Minnesota Vikings 5. 1994 San Francisco 49ers At least the undefeated Dolphins didn't crack the list.
  15. Lincoln never said this, not possible. The internet was known as the "world wide web" in his day, the term internet was not used until several years after his death. BUSTED!!!
  16. Hopefully we make up for it in the playoffs and overperform by 2+ wins.
  17. Well, according to Joe, as he said in yesterday's press conference, there's a lot of reasons to be hopeful in 2020 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dt_8HJss1Co
  18. So quality of life is the key. As stated in my answer, both my parents lived past 100, 95 will be just fine. Both golfed until 92 and had 3ish decent years after that. Who wouldn't sign on the dotted line for that? The last 7 years, well, I just kept telling their North Carolina grandchildren not to come to visit, it isn't how they would want to be remembered.
  19. So Milano is our best Linebacker. Tried to resist the temptation to say in other breaking news the sky is blue, water is wet, and Princess Di is still dead, but I just couldn't.
  20. Mom died at 101yrs, 246 days - Dad at 100yrs, 282 days. Mom had broken her hip or she would likely still be here. At Mom's 100th birthday party one of the guests commented that it was the first 100th birthday party he'd ever been to - told him it was the second one I'd hosted in the past year and a half. At any rate 95 will be just fine, I've seen 100, don't care to make it.
  21. Totally agree Diggs counts as a first round pick. As to trading up for a prime target, rather not. Using 2020 as the baseline as that's where the Diggs pick comes in to play, had we stood pat at 22 and gone wide receiver, we would likely have taken Justin Jefferson who was the 5th WR taken in that draft and has to date been the most productive - the only one with stats that surpass Diggs. Instead of trading up for an unproven rookie Beane traded out for a proven player which so far has proved to be the better decision. Prefer this route to trading up for an unknown when you can just stand pat for a different unknown that may prove to be better that the one you traded up for.
