His base customer is all of the Karens

Based on dollar value in no particular order. It said spend $15 not only 5 players. Any offense should be good enoug to win more than they lose with this. I’d take these 6 over every bodies 5. TO ($1) Woods ($2) John Brown ($2) Fitz ($2) Lynch ($3) Moulds ($5) Valuation in this meme is a disaster.

Squatty Potty field gets my vote of all the poop accessory brands.

I had a huge crush on Olivia Munn in the newsroom. I watched a bunch of her YouTube videos, ineterviews etc. after and found her super annoying. Very pretty, yes, but not my cup of tea outside of that. Rather be with somebody that I actually like.

Right, other than the word "Bills" there is nothing linked to Bill Cody. So I think that is a bit pedantic. Everything is just a Buffalo/Bison. There would be zero need to change anything in their brand.

Whatever. Go for it. It really doesn't matter. The Bills don't actually use Bill Cody in any marketing, mascots, etc. at all. Just rename them Buffalo. We use a Buffalo on the helmet, all of our marketing, mascots, t-shirts, imagining on the score board etc. I wouldn't "change" the name. I would just drop the Bills part. We can be like Madonna. We are just Buffalo. Literally nothing would have to be different.

I agree with both you and @ScottLaw. Largely the defense played well, or at least well enough to win that game. But Watson also had his way through most of the second half. They couldn’t get off the field and allows a bunch of long drives. Ie. Only 5 incomplete passes. Offense botched that game first and foremost. A better second half from the offense probably gets a better performance out of the defense.

“Anything less than your best is a sacrifice of the gift”- Steve Prefontaine Love that one. Funny story: I was living at the US Olympic Training Center. They built us a new boathouse and wanted our feedback on quotes to paint on the walls. As things do, it devolved with locker room banter and quotes that were inappropriate. Obviously the USOC was taken off the chain. Well.... I replied all to the original thread accidentally and sent “**** “beaches” make money” to the entire BOD at the USOC. Long story short, I had to write an apology email that I still get crap for from friends and it’s been almost a decade. Moral of the story, never reply all.

Somebody posted those predator looking masks earlier. I’m curious if they move from the steel cages to those plastic masks with respirators if there’s any effect on impact to the head.

It will take some getting used to, but athletes in tons of other sports have PR’d with full on respiratory masks while testing/measuring their VO2MAX. Obviously a ton of variables for that to happen, but as long as it is the same across the board it’s no different than playing a game in Athens in August or in Maine. Everybody is on the same field, on the same day, with the same weather.

I can’t wait for the guy who said that the Execs in this poll were guys like the VP of communications for Seattle and the players were the long snappers. Bueller? Bueller...

I know this conversation moved on, I can’t get over JJ Watt. He won’t wear a mask because he couldn’t breath with a VISOR on his helmet. He’s just blatantly lying. Wearing giant sunglasses on his helmet in now way effected his air supply. I wish he would have just said he thinks masks are stupid and he’ll sit out because of it. At least he would have honestly taken a side for everybody to see. Instead he’s just gaslighting. It has actually been bothering me for two days now. I guess he won this one. Haha

Come on sheeple, pay attention to what is going on around you! The masks are to keep the 5g poisoning inside of your respiratory system. That is why there is a right way and a wrong way to put a mask on. If it is just the same all the way through, why would they even have a "backwards or forwards". Wake up! Also Ron Paul said stuff. AND my neighbor is an audiologist, I know its basically just a graduate degree, but she makes everybody call her doctor, so I know what I am talking about!

I mean, I posted it, thought it was clearly a bit of hyperbole. But Watson lit us up in the second half and came “pretty close” 250 passing 2PTD 55 rushing 1 RTD. That’s probably closer to what I was talking about. In all honesty, I am not sure how many times a QB’s has ever put up 350+ passing and 85+ rushing and 3TDs. Other than playing Madden. If I didn’t hate the team (and if there was actually going to be football this year), I would probably watch a lot of the pats just because I am curious what BB does with an athlete behind center. EDIT: Just searched it on PFR. Literally no QB has ever thrown for at least 350 yards, 2TD, 85 Rushing yards, and a rushing TD.

?

This is vague. I also don't know where it is coming from. As somebody who has dealt with the athletic dept. at each Ivy league and knowing what "big revenue" is for athletic departments, sports are not a big revenue generator. Endowments can have some difficulties being tapped into, but just to note, Harvard and Yale are 2 and 3 globally behind the Catholic church. That said, football and basketball are revenue generators in that they provide events for alumni to donate, but Ivy's don't generate much revenue at all with athletics. In 2018 Harvard took in $1.4 Billion dollars in donations. So their $30M in athletic expenses is a pittance. They also have a ton of head coaches and faculty that are more or less double paid. They get their salary from the school and their seat is endowed, so they get both. This is just a wildly incorrect statement.

I am a little meh on that. Just because I know schools are struggling financially, and football is seen as a quick fix. On top of that, not terribly thrilled with the reporting from the NFL. We have reports of a handful of players/coaches with COVID in the NFL. Peyton, Von Miller, and Zeke. The NHL, MLB, and NBA are at least giving total players infected. They are at about 30 each as of earlier this week. Just based on roster size and practice squads, the NFL should probably be in the 70-90 range, and that is giving them the benefit of the doubt.

Buff State Athletics seem to be unsustainable, and they reference that it is in line with NCAA and SUNY guidelines/mandates. Athlete tests positive, everybody they come in contact with is in quarantine for two weeks. https://coronavirus.buffalostate.edu/sites/coronavirus.buffalostate.edu/files/uploads/PDF/restartplan.pdf I read through the guidelines in the link below. Maybe there is something a little more authoritative out there, but I didn't see it. The link is not as strict as what Buff State is doing. http://www.ncaa.org/sport-science-institute/resocialization-collegiate-sport-action-plan-considerations

They are "trying" to get all the freshman on for the fall right now. But that has not been confirmed. Same for seniors. Everybody else is off campus.

I think it is probably best for teams to tell friends and family to watch from home. This whole thing seems to be held together with frayed string anyways. Why risk having your QB's wife around the environment and then taking anything home. Even if it is by happenstance.

I mean honestly, I don't know how this works. I couldn't imagine a solution that gets 1500 players, plus coaches and staff together, and completes 16 games while traveling to other states and co-mingling, playing, etc. Really, the only way I could see it working without a team or two having a total disaster (at minimum) is taking the entire league to Tokyo, repainting the unused soccer fields, housing everybody in the unused Olympic village, and not let anybody in or out for 4-5 months. (this will never happen) I just had this discussion earlier with a friend. But it seems like the NFL is not reporting active cases among players like the NBA, NHL, and MLB. Those leagues are 30+ players infected, which should put the NFL at 70-90ish. Outside of Sean Peyton, Von Miller, and Zeke, it is crickets. Hell even Clemson was like, "boy we are effed at the moment. Hid your kids hide your wife" If this continues, and there is a league wide outbreak because of lack of transparency, they might find themselves in the same place as they have with CTE, where they are actively suppressing information.

They didn't need any more words after this, other than not losing seniority/seats for not attending the 2020 season. We should all agree that having zero people in the stadium is without a doubt the "safest possible environment for spectators".

Agreed. Probably a rolling start to practice makes sense. 1st string comes in at 7. Field by 8. Quickly disinfect the room. 2nd string in at 8:30. Field by 9:30, etc. It would require additional investment in expanding the staff and cleaning attendants, but it is manageable, and insures that the entire roster doesn't cross contaminate except on Sundays. I guess it all depends if the Pegula's could afford to do that and maintain their families lifestyle...

Just applying the same logic we had here for 10+ years. Playoffs aren’t enough, especially in a league like the NHL. How long before the Sabres win a series in the playoffs? Not just make them. My guess is 3-5. Then we are at a half a generation of futility.

Not the worst idea ever actually. What if you just had a season long series of the old pro bowl skills competition. That could be the best/only solution to football this year. Sled Push, get one of those Cobra Kai wooden limbed dummies for hand technique for offensive and defensive linemen.
