@Captain Hindsight - Disregard what's written above. First of all - dads taking paternal leave is very common. This isn't 1970. Secondly, all FMLA does is secure your job when out on medical leave. It has nothing to do with pay. The only way you'll owe the company money if you leave is if you're being paid with PTO that you haven't yet accrued. For example, where I work, hourly employees get 24 PTO days per year ... so they accrue two days/month. If someone wants to take 10 PTO days in January, they can - even though they're only accruing two days at the end of January. If they quit on Feb. 1st, then 8 days (64 hours) of PTO would come out of their last paycheck because they took those days off using PTO and were paid for them before they'd accrued the time. Either way, it has absolutely nothing to do with FMLA. Lastly, if you're honest with your future employer about your paternal leave, they will understand and - if they're a decent company - encourage you to take what you need prior to starting. That said, I'll refer to the previous paragraph .... if you're using your PTO to get paid during leave, then you may want to consider cutting your leave short and starting your new job earlier, strictly for financial reasons. Best of luck to you and congrats on the baby!

It's a bad precedent when owners let the tail wag the dog. I would hate to see the NFL end up like the NBA, where players dictate where they go and who they play with. There are obviously times when a player deserves more. But this particular situation is friggin' nuts.

Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine...

Dude, the laugh emoji wasn't enough. This literally made me laugh out loud! LMFAO!!!

Is this kind of like when OJ said he didn't kill nobody?

This is absolutely insane.

How about a nice card that says, "It's really because of Diggs and Beasley."

Yes, but Josh is actually going to WIN at least one Super Bowl.

Garrison Sanborn.

I actually think your concern is legitimate. I have very little doubt the Neanderthal HC the Lions hired is going to encourage his team to push the boundaries (kind way of saying "play dirty").

Because you're sweet and lovely, girl, I love you Because you're sweet and lovely, girl, it's true I love you more than ever, girl, I do I want you in the morning, girl, I love you I want you at the moment I feel blue I'm living every moment, girl, for you

Absolutely. I am not a fan of red on red. Red on white is sharp.

Totally agree!!! I have always loved the red jerseys.

We get up early and we work all day We put our time in 'cause we like to stay up All night long We keep on grinnin' till the weekend comes Just a pinch between your cheek and gum All night long, all night long

Tuh-ROD to Cleveland for a 3rd round pick was my favorite trade of all time. McCoy for that dirty scumbag Kiko Alonso is a close second.

I felt the same exact way.

Not sure why Keith Richards was there, but the guy in the striped shirt was lucky to get a pic with him!

I was a homer throughout much of the drought. When the Pegulas bought the team and hired Ryan as HC, I was optimistic. That lasted about two weeks into the regular season, as it only took that long for me to realize I was wrong about Ryan and I hated the Tyrod Taylor acquisition from the day we got him. That began a 3-year stretch during which I really didn't enjoy watching the Bills play (I never stopped watching, though). Even the wins weren't enjoyable to me and the end of the drought was just a fluke, as far as I was concerned. The playoff loss was nothing short of pathetic. I did like McDermott from the get go, but I wasn't going to be able to enjoy the games until Tyrod was gone. The day that bum was traded to Cleveland was one of the happiest moments of my Bills fandom. That was my turning point. Then, when we drafted Josh Allen, I was immediately sold on him and I was back to being excited and optimistic. Obviously, I still am. In summary, I think the ownership change, HC change (McD) and QB change (Josh) are the events that made me feel a lot better about this team.

Playing the Egg in Albany. Tiny, tiny venue; no bad seats in the house. This is super tempting. Two aisle seats at only $51/each. Damn!

Can you please re-write your original post in a more bulleted format? It would be a lot easier on my eyes. Thanks!

I write the songs that make the whole world sing I write the songs of love and special things I write the songs that make the young girls cry I write the songs, I write the songs

My Singletary prediction is the boldest of all. Realistically unlikely. I think Lamont's regression will be an annual trend.

I actually considered Winston, but I think the injury bug the team is experiencing will hurt. I am ABSOLUTELY bashing the Ravens and Singletary horses!!!

NFL wide The Ravens will not make the playoffs. The Browns will win their division, but lose in the Divisional Round again. The Titans and Chiefs will finish the season with the same record, both winning their divisions. The Rams will have the best regular season record in the NFC. Bills specific Singletary will average over 5 YPC and have over 1,000 yards rushing. Josh Allen will be the league MVP. Diggs and Davis will both have 1000+ receiving yards. Tre White will lead the league in INTs and be the NFL's DPOY.

I have to work today.
