  1. being Canadian, I didn't expect to be moved by my trip to Gettysburg but I very much was. Lee's foray into the North at Gettysburg still strikes me as fatal hubris. I believe that the South would have held the Confederacy had they just stayed within their own states. I will never buy that the war was fought for slavery. As it was before the income tax, 80% of the country's customs revenue came through New Orleans. The loss of that revenue would have made the federally governed continental US an impossibility. War is always about money and power and this one was no different. Every other nation that had slavery ended it by legislation. The practice would have eventually died off under the weight of its immorality. The South was filled with manumission societies that fundraised to free individual slaves. Unfortunately that has been lost in the collective memory so we are now led to believe that every southerner is a white supremacist by virtue of their birthplace - such a sad and unneccessary stereo type.
  2. sounds as creepy as the Tell Tale Heart by Edgar Allan Poe
  3. I believe Big Tech has become a handmaiden to the surveillance state and have starting to leave less of a trail other than my devotion to my fellow Bills community. I am starting to use search engines and browsers other than Google's and am nearly at the point of closing my FB account. Just wondering if other 2BDers have made similar steps and can share any tips for preserving online anonymity and privacy.
  4. I don't feel like we overpayed for Allen. Definitely not an RG3 deal
  5. Laura Dern always scratched an itch for me
  6. listening to Greg Landry's podcast these incidents are no surprise to those who scouted him. There are more incidents than those that have reached media attention. This guy is an entitled thug whose parents and coaches have enabled him all his life. Nick Saban refused to sign him for these reasons. Not a good human being. Not long for this league
  7. How could anyone go missing for that long? The stadium will likely be sued for wrongful death of a worker
  8. Ko "millionaire" Simpson The Black Hole
  9. A man who died for our drinking pleasure should be sainted
  10. If that was Ottawa they'd fine him for trespassing
  11. Must be some seriously bad stadium food there Must be some seriously bad stadium food there
  12. now that he's unemployed all bets are off
  13. are we talking street ho's or online professionals?
  14. he`ll get between 600 and 1000 yards depending on how Shady holds up
  15. during the DJ years i argued vociferously that we'd be a 10 win team with Carson Palmer. I too wanted Mallett and Clausen and probably every other QB we didn't draft. I thought we pulled EJ too early
  16. Old Regime + High Salary = Gone
  17. was it considered dirty before or after I'd been there? ?
  18. see kids, sports build character
  19. this wasn't the QB controversy I was expecting
  20. do you know if another hotel is going up in its place? what kind of action went on there?
  21. since the closure of the BBMB my official Bills website is 2BD. I have not gone back since and aside from managing my season ticket account I have no intention to
