I think "Washington" has known for sometime that this report wasn't going to say much. It's why the Democrats started their own investigations on so many different fronts. It's why the Republicans are reportedly feeling emboldened. It's why Biden hasn't officially announced his run yet. If the report says nothing new about Trump, I doubt he'll run.

IMO, he's flashing that seeking protection in prison from the AB and other like minded organizations.

It's more 50/50 than most mothers are comfortable admitting. Raising children is akin to flying an airplane. The airplane can get by with one engine but it optimally flies better with two. Both boys and girls benefit from a fatherly influence in their lives.

Are you embarrassed to wear Bills gear?
dpberr replied to Another Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
What's the first rule of being a fan of a team? Never apologize for your decision to be one. -
The Walking Dead and the Whisperers
dpberr replied to SlimShady'sSpaceForce's topic in Off the Wall Archives
I think TWD would cross so many lines by killing Judith but it would give a Negan a rich vengence/redemption storyline. Something has to occur to get him released by Alexandria and turned lose on the Whisperers, and IMO, the Whisperers killing Judith, Michonne or Gabriel could be the plot device. -
I think McCoy's status in Buffalo as straightforward as both team and player have communicated. The FO wants him to be a member of the team. He wants to be on this team.

I picked Williams even if he will be a guard in the NFL, not a tackle. He will likely be a great guard, however.

Hockenson at #9 Change My Mind
dpberr replied to Mike in Syracuse's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If you like what George Kittle can do, that's why you're likely ok with picking Hockenson at #9. In order to develop Josh Allen's game, you need to provide him a variety of pass catchers on every pass down. IMO, what sets him apart, like many TEs from Iowa, is he a football player first, athlete second. I think that's important when you get to the NFL as everyone is an amazing athlete, the plays are more complicated, the game is faster, etc. Guys like Nkoju and Ebron are superior athletes who had to learn how to play football to produce in the NFL. I don't know what happened with Ebron in Indy, but it's like there was a legitimate football epiphany there because he went from catching absolutely nothing to catching everything. -
Apparently Democrats stand for nothing...or...
dpberr replied to OCinBuffalo's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I think a difficult pill to swallow for Democrats is that especially in regards to foreign policy, Trump's approach is more Democratic Party than it is traditional Republican Party. Hell, a good barometer of knowing your foreign policy is headed in the right direction is when Dick Cheney hates it. -
JP Losman impresses scouts at Clemson Pro day
dpberr replied to End The Drought's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If any former NFL players or Uncle Ricos are legitimately interested in getting back in the league or finding their way to it, they have more opportunities today than ever before between the AAF, XFL, goodl ol' CFL and the camp tryouts NFL teams run before the "real" minicamps. I'm sure JP Losman has moved on with his life but why a young guy like Karlos Williams who has stated a desire to get back to the NFL, wasn't the first guy in line for the AAF befuddles me. -
Democratic 2020 Presidential Primary Thread
dpberr replied to snafu's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I don't think Biden is going to withstand the social media barrage he'll likely get from the radical wings of his party. He's going to say a lot of things that crew does not want to hear like "No, we can't do Medicare for all" and any sentence that starts off with "When I was Vice President...." -
Are the Browns now the Favorites to win the AFC North?
dpberr replied to Big Turk's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I voted no because Kitchens is an unproven coach. Some guys are great, brilliant coordinators and dismal head coaches. There's always potential for sophomore slump as defenses now have had an entire offseason to gameplan for your quarterback. Lots of new players takes time to mesh, especially on offense. I think they are, dare I say it, "playoff caliber" but it's not a gurantee. -
I think no matter where this player lands, he will propose a prove it one year contract and bet on himself. With a healthy, productive season, he's likely one of the top five free agents in 2020 Free Agency.

I think the NYG are getting rid of the malcontents. We make fun of McDermott and his "process" but the reality is every team in the NFL has a process. Just like all of our workplaces, sometimes there are personalities that are toxic and divisive that regardless of production, just have to go. IMO, I think a growing number of teams would rather suffer the losses than put up with "personalities". They aren't worth the trouble.

Happy Birthday to the World Wide Web - 30 yrs old
dpberr replied to SlimShady'sSpaceForce's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Netscape Navigator was the superior browser. Microsoft Internet Explorer had the superior deal makers and marketers. If it wasn't for the internet, the Clinton/Lewinsky scandal would have likely never been exposed. -
That's a frustration decision if I've ever seen one.

If you're the child, I'm not sure what's worse: 1. Your parents get busted by the FBI with your demostrated mediocre intellect used as evidence against them; 2. You had no idea any of this happened and your parents made the decision to risk imprisonment to get you ahead seeing your chances doing it by yourself were so slim. I'd like to know how these kids are actually doing in college once they got there. Yale: "We have no idea why William H. Macy's bright child has a 1.9GPA this semester. She scored a 1420 on her SAT and she was highly recommended by 50 teachers, a couple poet laureates, a few PHDs and a physicist."

Imagine being such a dull bulb that mom and dad had to resort to: "Huffman is accused of paying $15,000 — disguised as a charitable donation — to the Key Worldwide Foundation so her oldest daughter could participate in the scam. A confidential informant told investigators that he advised Huffman he could arrange for a third party to correct her daughter's answers on the SAT after she took it. She ended up scoring a 1420 — 400 points higher than she had gotten on a PSAT taken a year earlier, according to court documents." https://www.foxnews.com/us/college-entrance-exam-cheating https://www.cnn.com/us/live-news/college-admissions-cheating-felicity-huffman-lori-loughlin/index.html

Bills one of 6 teams in on Leveon Bell
dpberr replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
IMO, reading the tea leaves, the six teams mentioned are those that submitted bonafide contract offers. Absent the cash, I think the strongest suitor of the six is Green Bay. Play on grass , with a non running QB, with no "name" running back to supplant or beat out in camp. Bell is not an easy player to evaluate. I'm very concerned about the reports he's significantly heavier now than he's suppossed to be. (260lbs versus playing weight of 225) -

This doesn't make a lot of sense unless Roseman is legitimately getting the band back together in Philadelphia. I can't see McCoy being shipped anywhere but back to Philly and that's only happening if Philly and McCoy want that to happen. -
Jets reportedly moving on from Darron Lee
dpberr replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He's a great athlete who has difficulty in reading a football playbook and implementing the play on the field. In college, he pretty much just tackled whoever had the ball and let his athleticism do the work. In the NFL, he had to learn "assignments" and "zones" and IMO, that's why he's disappointed. That's why sometimes you take the better football player over the better athlete. It's easier to make a professional football player more athletic in the NFL than it is to make the athlete a professional football player. -
Has anyone else given up TV/Movies/Music?
dpberr replied to Chautauqua Mafia's topic in Off the Wall Archives
I gave up cable news after the 2016 election. Wikipedia has saved me hundreds of dollars and plenty of time in regards to movies. I can just read the story under "plot." 9 out of 10 times it's a movie filled with plot devices I've seen many times before. -
1. He's not *that* good. 2. Raiders are booking their rooms in cap purgatory in Las Vegas Year #2. I foresee them hoodwinking all their new fans into season tickets and PSLs with a dazzling year one in the new stadium and then having to tear it all down shortly thereafter.
