Just in Atlanta

Teams tend not to game-plan for preseason games. Fact: There is NO correlation between preseason success, or failure, with regular season success, or failure. This is a good start, nothing else. Not to crush hope, or to buoy it.

Cue the obligatory "I don't care what they wear as long as they win" response...

Good news!

Good question, and I think it did. Fitz had one of the quickest releases in football. This line was built to open holes, and the O was built to create horizontal space quickly. Losing Levitre makes it even worse. EJ/Kolb/Tuel will be under a lot of pressure this year I think. Maybe Hacket's no huddle uptempo O will also mask deficiencies. We can hope. Agree. His offense the past two years was exciting. It seemed as if we were constantly moving the chains, even though our TDs were average, and our No. 2-4 WRs were below average. The big flaw obviously was Fitz' inability to throw deep and Wanny's vanilla schemes. I guess you could also fault him on under-using CJ, but I think the offense performed pretty well last year.

God forbid the face masks get "out of hand." Who knows what will happen then.

Excuses, excuses. Like you have to breathe to cover football or something.

Pretty soon, smiling will be excessive. Let em play, and have fun. Fine only if it delays the game or is in poor sportsmanship. Nothing wrong with a quick endzone dance.

I think it's fair to say we can bury the following phrases: 1. We live and die with our Front 4. 2. Fit it up.

AstroBot. His camp reports are incredible.

Just wait until you see what a bad tipper he is.

I'm going to try to have low expectations ... throughout the entire season ... but that is really tough for this eternal optimist. Only can think of two years in which I thought we'd be horrible. Both years we were like 5-1. Then, I got my typical optimism back, only to get crushed by typical Bills crash and burn suckitude. Every other year for the past decade-plus, I thought we had a 10-win team from the get-go, then got a rude awakening with the usual. The moral: You'll almost always be pleasantly surprised when you have super low expectations.

NY could easily be the least free state in the union.

RI, here we come. I'll make sure we bring a cap gun, rope, beer, pipe, toothbrush and toothpaste with us. For the record, I kind of agree with the not biting the leg off of another person ... although that could be covered under general mutilation or assault.

Ha ha. The Big Gulp ban is done. A court overruled Bloomberg. I could do an entire season on NYC and never even mention soda. But Bloomberg might give me a stern finger wagging if he does see me with one.

Thanks!

And mods (SDS): This isn't an advert, I'm not making any money off this, and this is a political show on a political forum. Thought everyone here would appreciate it. If there is a better forum for this, please let me know.

Have 12 episodes mapped out, and am well aware of that book, and need to get it. Will order it t-nite. Thanks.

Hey fellas, I'm a longtime, active member of TBD, and I'm in the process of pitching production companies and networks on picking up my show, Breaking the Law. Top networks include Discovery and History. Breaking the Law investigates victimless crimes and the everyday American lawbreaker. With Congress introducing 55 new crimes each year — and 50 states and 40,000 cities following suit daily — we show how it’s pretty much impossible to not break the law. In the process, we break as many laws as humanly possible. Here's our network promo. [/media] Our first , which just went out. If you think the project is up your alley, I would love a like and a share. Also, if you have any critical feedback, please let me know. (Be aware this ENTIRE project is pro-bono, and I am well aware of the production issues) Thanks guys. FYI, if we are picked up, our fourth episode will be in NYC. Would like to come to Buffalo in the second season! Hopefully during the fall.

I refuse to expect another 6-10 season. 7-9 or 8-8...we at least show progress this year. It's the small victories.

Rarely call out posters here, but this is an absurd post to the nth degree. And I'm only calling you out because you bashed someone with a legit, friendly thread. It's called networking. You are assuming he is going to only rely on this thread to get him his dream job? And don't you know many of the good jobs are not advertised? Second, if he has experience, he's not going to become a God damn intern. Third, networking is all about connections. I'd hire this guy based on his thread a hundred times over versus a guy like you based on yours. Good luck, Thomas!

It's not real until someone has a title on their door. Everyone knows that. And, yes, good luck on your quest.

So what we're saying is we have an analytics program but no department or employees? Reminds me of a Monty Python skit.

That's actually a pretty funny line. It's easy to bash comedy. Try writing it first.

Agreed. What she looks like un photoshopped.
