If you want to be with older people 24 / 7 - then that is your place. No young people. No sounds of kids laughing / playing. The area seems to close down by 700pm. Very clique-y. Very little diversity - if at all. This time of the year - hot and steamy. Golf courses are marginally maintained (except for the tournament courses). And when the snow birds come - all he## breaks loose.
But the syphilis is free.

This seems simple enough...tell our running back to get back in tune with the team, and believe in yourself as a TEAM player. Play better than last season, and the Bills will give you close to what you want, for the following seasons, a long term deal will work out. Prove you are worth what you want, it's still a little high, but, you and the team management can work things out this off season coming...This could mean several trips to the BIG game. You stop complaining, and just do your job. If you get a trade you want, oh, they will give you that trade but, it will be to a team rebuilding, or has no chance to even make to the play-offs and this is your best shot for that elusive ring.
Just sayin'...
I think Mr. Cook needs to pull himself up by the boot straps and be his own boss. I would tell Mr. Cook to print out 20 copies of his resume on hard stock and talk to every hiring manager in town. You'd be surprised how far a little but of gumption, a firm hand shake, and direct eye contact can take you. And another thing, sit up straight and never slouch Senor Cook. And it would it kill you to eat your vegetables or call your mother a little more often Cook San? And give it a break with the video games, they'll rot your brain Herr Cook! Oh, I think our Mr. Cook is gonna be alright.
But thats not important right now. The important part is that I tied an onion to my belt, as was the style at the time....

Its a ways out so much can change, but were it to happen today we'd retire in Bali. It really is a paradise. My concerns are around the increasingly conservative indonesian government, climate change, and over development on the island. But so far the Gov does not mess with Bali and the robust tourism industry. You can eat pork and drink beer until you're fat and happy. Should the congestion get too bad, we'd look to another nearby island.

No, never disinterested. The least interested I ever got was during my college years ~1998-2004 and even then I was heavily interested. Just not as much as before and after because of how many distractions there are associated with college.
Based on the timeline, it doesn't look like going to class was one of those distractions. 😅

Josh aint exactly a getting a Victorias Secret cover himself either. I guarantee they are both freaking absolute units under that layer(s) of fat. Theres probably something to staying healthy with the few extra pounds on their frame. You cant exactly add 15-20 clean pounds (muscle) to their frames in an off-season or even a career. Can a guy who never stepped in a gym before get some "quick" (1-2years) gains like that? Sure... but these guys are physical specimen.
Hypothesis:
Jacked + 15-20lbs Fat > Just Jacked and 15-20 lbs lighter
These guys are so heavily outweighed by every guy on the DL and 50%+ of LB's. Force = Mass x Acceleration , seems to sort of tell the story here
They're athletes in a contact sport and not fitness models. As long as a few extra lbs isn't slowing them down or dragging on their mobility, I think its a good thing to have a bit of extra padding for resilience, recovery, and absorbing hits.
Now if a defensive back, wideout, or a linebacker looked like that, I'd say thats cause for concern. I can't remember the last time I saw a pudgy cornerback.

I feel like Mahomes always looks like this lately.
It should also be noted that, while incredibly clutch - in part due to his guys/coaches stepping up around him, he’s very clearly been QB4, at most, behind Allen, Jackson and Burrow in recent years.
That offense has been mostly bare of weapons the past two years. Hollywood Brown and Rashee Rice were out almost all of last year. Kelce is on his last legs. Reid is scheming guys open but they have lacked real threats.
If Rice is healthy this year, Mahomes play will bounce back. Which is bad news for us.

It comes down to this:
Do you believe that the Bills' problem are deep and systemic, and no amount of personnel turnover will fix them?
- or -
Do you believe that the Bills' formula is good enough to get them to the doorstep of the Super Bowl every year, and they keep being just a play or two away from getting there?
If you believe the former, then you probably agree with this article. If you believe the latter, then you probably don't agree with the article. If you believe the former, you likely want some combination of Beane and McDermott gone, and you want a shiny new head coach and/or GM. If you believe the latter, you just keep trying to add talent and "keep trying to kick the door down", as one NFL executive put it to Beane last year.
Which side are you on? That's the big question.I have concerns that the talent needs for McD's scheme to stop the league's top offenses when it matters are unrealistic. We've tried a lot of different combos of players and DCs but the song remains the same. No answers in January and they give up points and yards at a historic rate.

I'm not jumping on the hope train but playing better team defense and improving both a bottom ranked PP and PK unit is the quickest path to being in the playoff picture. Its strange that a team with good scoring metrics was so inept on the power play. That screams coaching issue to me and not talent. Granted we just moved a player responsible for 28% of our PP goals (12 out of 43). Kulich needs to be the guy taking one timers and filling the net on the PP from the right wing opposite Tage.
PK results are generally in line with our overall goals against per game. Its obvious this team has been poor defensively for years. If the moves on defense and another year in Lindy's system does not dramatically improve defensive play, this team is going to struggle big time.
Its another season that hinges on Tage, Dahlin, and Tuch staying healthy all year and continuing to produce around career high levels and a major jump in play from some combination of Kulich, Benson, Quinn. Otherwise you can take a 10 game losing streak to the bank. We will miss Peterka's speed. Without adding another top 6 forward I think we are looking at a less entertaining but less maddening path to a similar finish on the standings as last year.

It's like this. When you are in a hole, do you sit there and say woe is me, or do you start climbing out? Most people only have a cursory knowledge of the Sabres: PLAYOFF DROUGHT! And from that they assume everything about the team is horrible. It isn't. They have good players. They have drafted well. They were 9th in the league in scoring.
Their problem is much like the Bills last year; they are bad on defense and give up too many goals. So they are adding better D and players with grit this year. Now they did lose a scorer in JJ Peterka that they haven't fully replaced. The wild card is Josh Norris who they traded for last year. His rep is as a scorer but he's been injured a lot.
Do you remember the Bills drought? This is the same thing. The Bills were never the worst, they were just bad enough. And one magical year, they caught a break and broke the drought. I'm hoping the same happens this year. But being miserable all the time just gives me an ulcer and doesn't have any impact on what happens on the ice.
Taking a deeper dive into the results, the Sabres played 30 games where they scored 2 goals or less. They won 1. They played 52 games where they scored 3 or more and lost 17, winning the other 35.
In contrast, the Stanley Cup winners played 33 games where they scored 2 goals or less and won 6. They only lost 8 of their 49 games when scoring 3 or more, winning the other 41.
Are we winning a 2-1 game with the additions on defense? Or are we going to close out some 3 to 2 games?

You rarely get inspired by today’s pros but the world could use a little more Alex Smith. The pure grit he showed in coming back from this, and really, for nothing more than to prove to himself that he could. It’s remarkable and inspirational. He has to be a pretty special person to do what he has.
It was terrifying watching him in action when he came back. Every time a defender was near him I felt sick. So relieved he finished that game and retired soon afterward. Its crazy how the inspiring can also be so nauseating at the same time.

Man - If this isn’t a testament to how remarkable his comeback was. I can’t believe he was able to play football again on that leg. What a heroic story and effort of determination after one of the most gruesome injuries in the sports history. Hats off to him 👏
#Warrior
A truly incredible recovery and an amazing comeback story. Modern medicine gets a bad rap but I'm telling you man, theres something to it. I mean, which one did he even break? I can't even tell.

Agree about Benson. I like the kid; talented and aggressive. But man is he a ragdoll out there sometimes. I think his size is limiting his production.
This is fair. But it's hard to get excited about a team with a couple of stars, a few really good players and then a bunch of journeymen that rarely play inspired hockey. And I think the biggest issue is the goalie situation. Who's that guy gonna be? And will any of them play with any sort of consistency?
The fans are looking for a spark. Something...anything. A viable blockbuster trade perhaps. Hasn't happened. Maybe a Miller or Hasek type goaltender, as one person mentioned earlier. Those are hard gems to find.
Maybe something will happen when the season starts to get fans to sit up and take notice. But for now, it just looks like business as usual. Which hasn't worked out so well lately.
It is. Big time. I respect his fight and tenacity but he spends a lot of time on his ass. We hope he can become Brad Marchand who is also 5'9" and weighs 180 according to the internet. Benson is 5'9" and weighs 170 supposedly. I think Marchand is closer to 200 at this point and Benson is closer to 150 mid season. The difference in their physicality is night and day.
To be fair, Benson is still a year younger going into his 3rd year as a pro than Marchand was in his rookie season. Hopefully he spent the offseason in the gym and crushing HGH.

Isn’t there something where they can’t be charged for something they did before being in NFL?
He can certainly be charged or sued for alleged criminal actions which occurred before he was drafted. I don't think the league can suspend him for offenses prior to his status as an NFL player.

So far, it's been one backup goalie and a host of 4th liners and AHL players.
Does unspent cap accrue to following years? I think GMKA is planning to go berserk when McDavid is a free agent in 2033.

Let me be clear. I respect your football knowledge quite a bit and admire your posts. You also seem like a nice person. That said, just because you say something "multiple times" does not necessarily make what you say factual. If that was the case, everybody could say something again and again and be 100% correct just by virtue of doing so.
We will never agree on this topic, nor is there any real way of finding out the truth. It's all cool.
I am not defending Beane at all! I am putting the blame on McDermott for continuing the Bills tradition of too much focus on defensive backs, despite other bigger needs. This started with the trade of the Mahomes pick to the Chiefs and extends all the way to this season, when instead of providing Josh more weapons, he drafted another first round corner.

I dont see any indication that Pegula is in any urgency to sell the Sabres... let alone sell them to an outside interest who would relocate the team. Also, he stands to make like $100 Million-Plus for each of these upcoming expansion teams.
I do wonder if he had a local off-ramp to rid himself of the Sabres, if he would take the money and run. He does seem to like acting like a hockey executive though and getting his thrills with further ruining the franchise.
However, this arena situation is coming to a head and something needs to get done. Arenas in the Keybank Center's age, which were more expensive and nicer at the time are getting major upgrades one after the other. Washington is getting a $500 Million upgrade. Nationwide Arena in Columbus (which is younger than the KBC) just had $400 Million in renovations announced. The Keybank Center is in desperate need of some major updates and will become an increasing black eye for NHL as far as arenas go.
Who will pay for it? I dont think the State has an appetite for the political baggage of another major arena project for a failed team who wont spend to the salary cap. Pegula is taking a beating on the cost of the Highmark project and on some level he probably thinks the public owes him for that one. The County seems to be distancing themselves.
Many/most Sabres fans wear this armor that the Sabres can never move because the NHL saved them in 2002-2003. Different times. Keybank Center was only 6 years old. The NHL's franchise values were low and fans in the seats were more valuable. Non-traditional markets across the country have taken off since then and have proven staying power (Nashville, Florida, Dallas, Tampa, Carolina, Vegas, and Seattle). NHL teams are now worth more than $1 Billion. Golisano bought the team in 2003 for $70 Million. In my opinion, without a lease and the building the way it is, nobody involved in the NHL would shed a tear or try to prevent the Sabres from moving to a more appealing locale.
In my opinion, walking away from a proven market in a league which has had a rocky road to 32 teams would be an incredible mistake. A few years ago the Florida Panthers were at serious risk of a relocation. Seems like ancient history 2 cup wins later. A few franchises remain on shaky ground and several others are far too early into their relocations/expansions to call successes at this point.

Mcfadden's on 2nd avenue in New York City is where you go to watch the Bills. If it's anything like it used to be, you'd better get there early. The place absolutely rocks.
NYC Bills Backers moved on from McFadden's a few years ago. Penn 6 is the current Bills Backers bar in Manhattan I believe.
