  1. Here's some of the fuller text from the lawsuit, in which an NFL Media reporter describes a separate conversation with Pegula: 126. During the meeting, an NFL Media reporter described a conversation he had with Buffalo Bills owner Terry Pegula in which Mr. Pegula was speaking about the recent emphasis on social activism by NFL players, and in particular support for Black Lives Matter. 127. As reported, Mr. Pegula stated that, “If the Black players don’t like it here, they should go back to Africa and see how bad it is.” https://www.wigdorlaw.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Trotter-Complaint.pdf
  2. Here's the full complaint FYI: https://www.wigdorlaw.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Trotter-Complaint.pdf Full Pegula details start on page 31. Allegedly was reported by another NFL media person during a zoom meeting in 2020, doesn't sound likely there's any direct audio/video of Pegula saying it.
  3. Also the dad went to HS with Michael Lewis who wrote the book, which suggests the story wouldn't have been written without the Tuohys in the picture.
  4. Actually the character of Principal Sandstrom was played by an actor named Andy Stahl.
  5. NHLPA '93 on Genesis was my original jam, where I first learned all about hockey and the NHL rosters. Mogilny was so freaking fast!
  6. Grabbitz (aka Nick Chiari) is a Buffalo native: this video from last year was recorded at the Rec Room Edit: oops I guess PTR already got Grabbitz 🍻
  7. The "top comment" and its replies on this Manchester Orchestra video are amazing: "It's time, Jemit"
  8. Manchester Orchestra is playing in the "Outer Harbor Concert Series" on August 25, along with Jimmy Eat World. https://buffalowaterfront.com/events/jimmy-eat-world-manchester-orchestra
  9. What are you proud of? 🤷‍♂️
  10. Demetri Martin: I was eating some fajitas and I burnt the roof of my mouth. And I was like, “Ow! The roof of my mouth, that hurts. It’s really tender. Wait a minute. The roof of my mouth? This is the ceiling of my mouth. The roof of my mouth is way up here. Whoever named this was not using the attic of their mouth at all.”
  11. 🙄 https://www.billboard.com/culture/pride/rebecca-black-pride-month-love-letter-1235342335/ Anywhooo... speaking of "Friday", I'm going to CAAMP frontman Taylor Meier's side project Sumbuck this weekend.
  12. Well, there's retiring and then there's retiring. Many people fully retire from their jobs/careers but continue to keep themselves active doing something they like that includes some sort of compensation. Military, police, other public service professions, can often retire after 20-30 years with full pensions/benefits, but 45-55 may be a little early to spend the rest of your life on on a golf course. My dad closed down his office and "retired" in his 70s but still keeps a couple irons in the fire just to stay active.
  13. Pretty sure he's ECB's college roommate's cousin's groomsman. Not sure about the second part of your question: you'd think people would know better than ever to ignore twitter, but these are desperate times (aka the offseason).
  14. I saw "Richard Pryor Live in Concert" on late-night TV as a kid, possibly the best stand-up film ever made, and the bit about his pet monkeys dying and the neighbor dog wanting to eat them always stuck with me : "And there was a dog that used to live next door to us, a German Shepherd, right, big, ugly, mean German Shepherd. He would bite anything. And he jumped the fence and came over there, and I felt something moving my hand like that and it was him, I was gonna pet him. He looked at me and he said, what’s the matter, Rich. I said, my monkeys died. He said, what? Your monkeys died? Ain’t that a B word. You mean the two monkeys used to be in the trees, they died? I said, yeah, they died. He said, *****. I was gonna eat them, too. He said, don’t linger on that ***** too long, you know, it ***** with you. I said, I’ll try. Yeah, you take care. Then he went back and jumped over the fence. And just before he jumped, he looked back at me, he said, now, you know I’m gonna be chasing you again tomorrow. Yeah." https://scrapsfromtheloft.com/comedy/richard-pryor-live-concert-1979-full-transcript/
  15. Randy Gradishar - not the longest career, but he was dominant during his time, as part of a famous named D in Denver's "Orange Crush." 2000+ tackles in 10 seasons, 7-time Pro Bowler, 2-time 1st-team (and 3-time 2nd-team) All-Pro, 1978 Defensive MVP, that is a HOF resume in my book. Hopefully the Seniors Committee finally lets Randy in next year.
  16. "'Cause I don't play video games no more I never play video games But Red Dead Redemption II, that is not a game It's an incredible journey through old American history Fighting for life and fighting for your family Trying to live your days with honor and intеgrity That's not a game, that's an adult thing That's not a game at all That's like *****in' Shakеspeare"
