    I’m just pointing out that 47 souls passed away in snow merely 12 months ago—-point is, that there is danger having 70,000+ people stuck.

    If I go I’m bringing my cold weather camping supplies, food/water and dvds. I don’t see how they don’t move it to Monday if the forecast is what it is. Any way you look at it a lot of traffic will have to drive through the storm.

    No, it is literally not

    “Officially, the National Weather Service defines a blizzard as a storm which contains large amounts of snow OR blowing snow, with winds in excess of 35 mph and visibilities of less than 1/4 mile for an extended period of time (at least 3 hours).”

    Sounds a lot like what they're describing is supposed to hit during the game.

    It’s crazy how different each weather site is. I will say accuweather has said I was in middle of a massive rain storm when it didn’t rain anywhere near there the week before or in the week after. 
     

    looks like I can wait to buy tickets love snow games

    We took our 10 year old grandson to NYC last summer and it sure SMELLED like it was everywhere. I don’t know what the rules are on actually smoking it, but there were people all over walking down the sidewalk smoking joints. I was hoping I wasn’t going to have to explain that funny smell everywhere. 

    Legal to smoke anywhere tobacco is. I’m shocked I don’t smell it anywhere.

    Part of the quality issue in the NY dispensaries comes from the rule in NYS legalization that any/all flower sold must come from within NYS.

     

    There is a similar rule for local distilleries. They have to source all their ingredients from within NYS. No importing potatoes from Idaho for your vodka.

     

    In theory, I like the rule. It's a good way to drive more business and jobs into the state and provide regional economics than simply reselling weed they get from California or a Mexican Cartel.

     

    But the rub is that all the grow houses are recently established and don't have those foundational plants and operating procedures down yet.

     

     

    While weed was legalized a couple of years ago, the dispensaries were only allowed to open late last year. The state had to figure out permitting (and how to make sure the permits only went to their cronies). Towns had to vote on whether they'd allow dispensaries. Etc.

     

    Lot of moving parts to allowing a brand new industry to operate. Especially when it is a Vice industry.

    The state made the growers sit on finished product for a long time. Most of the stuff that was sold was packaged well over a year ago. A lot of the growers were up and running for a while.

     

    You can get seeds and clones easily so getting quality strains isn’t an issue. Doesn’t really take long to set up and get going if they buy clones. Seed you have to pheno hunt but still. Take a bunch of clones and pick from there. At most it’s 6 months to start and fill the warehouse. We have one in Lockport waiting on the state. If it’s not up to their standards than make edibles with it. 
     

    A lot of it was outdoor which at best is mids. NYS is very wet so a ton of mold issues. You couldn’t pay me to smoke NYS outdoor or any outdoor tbh.
     

    The state is the problem. It’s like they ignored the other legal states and figured out what would make absolutely no sense and cause the most problems and did that.

    Havent been much impressed by the current dispensaries in Buffalo that I visited over Christmas.

     

    Decent spots for picking up edibles and that type of stuff. But the flower product was just ok, and damn expensive. Going to "my guy" is still a much better option for both quality and price.

     

    I did like Herbal IQ on Transit in Depew. Probably where I'd go back to next time as well.

    The “top shelf” stuff at the legal dispensaries was absolutely terrible at ridiculous prices. I guess one opened up on Hertel that is supposed to be better. The pic of the bud my friend sent looked decent. But they charge more than the rez or private sellers and there’s taxes on top. They should have just left it decriminalized but the state has to screw everything up 

     

    Tbh most dispensary bud has been sub par. Cookies on Melrose in LA was the only one that I wasn’t mad at the quality but they closed not long ago. The tax on it was ridiculous. Like 30 something % but they covered 10% or something.

    I’m nervous that home field advantage won’t be as strong as we hope.  
     

    There are a ton of tickets available on Ticketmaster.  Steelers fans will ***** them right up. 

    Everyone’s acting like it can’t happen here. It has happened here a lot. Eagles, Bengals and Steelers fans usually buy a lot of seats. Every Bills home game I’ve been to vs those teams had a lot of their fans.

    I noticed at the end of the game wilkins came up to greet Josh and tell him good game. Josh didnt necessarily reciprocate the gesture. I think Wilkins thinks he can act like this during the game and be cool with each other after. I genuinely think Josh hates this guy. 

    During the game Wilkins said something to Josh after a play, Josh completely ignored him and pushed right past with out looking his way. I agree I think he hates him.

    What’s very funny is that Josh’s presser he keeps saying I kept hurting the team. 
     

    TBD just doesn’t believe him I guess?

    I’ve found most people can’t understand that multiple things can be true at the same time. 
     

    In the first half he hurt the team. In the second half he helped the team. He needs to knock off the hero ball. I don’t know if he ever will. When doing interview with Tom Brady, Brady said something about taking check downs and what defense gives you and Josh pretty much rolled his eyes and scoffed at the idea.
     

    He could be by far the best player to ever play the game instead of a debate if he cleaned up his inconsistency.
