Its awesome for fans that like to travel. I would love to see the Bills in Madrid.
Certain places are better for certain things.
I'd rather eat olives in Madrid, and I'd rather watch the Bills in Orchard Park.

There are lots of people who want to make money off of this kind of stuff.
The "ex UFO investigator ," Luis Elizondo, is certainly one of them.
Not a believer.

OJ Simpson.
There was simply no player more physically capable in his first years, and those were largely wasted.
He was on a different planet.

Word is it tanked because AMC announced it was selling off 10M shares first thing this morning. But imo, that shouldnt cause the price to drop since it means (just like GameStop did), they now get a big injection of cash to pay off debts and stay afloat.
Because stock is ownership.
If you issue more stock, you dilute the value of existing shares, thus reducing their value.
Stock issuance dilutes value, stock buybacks enhance it.

The thing that frustrates me about Knox is he has the ability to make these really wild off balanced circus catches....but then drops the ones where he's open and it hits his hands.
It's run after catch, not run before catch.

Vinyl bird netting is incredibly cheap.
I have over a quarter mile of it in my vineyard.
You can protect those peas and beans for less than $20.

I'd go with the late drive against Arizona.
Great thread, by the way.

The wing appears to have stood up pretty well.
It's not really designed to be strong along the axis of contact.
Tough to say. The slat damage can be repaired, but the wing spars, the spanwise structural components that run perpendicular to the fuselage will be X-rayed to assess non visible damage.
If you hit something and you're not on the yellow line you're screwed.
If you hit something and you're on the yellow line, you're screwed.
But if you hit something, get on the yellow line.
They were on the yellow line.
Can't see the wing tip from the cockpit.
The 777, a much bigger airplane, has cameras mounted on the horizontal stabilizer that you could display and see the nose and main landing gear because of the difficulty of taxiing. We weren't supposed to view it in flight, but I always did. It showed the immediate contrail formation behind the engines at cruise.

Knock off the wacky huge loss sacks and fumbles.
Put the ball in the receivers hands where they don't have to break stride, reach too far, and otherwise disrupt their ability to run after catch.
Thankfully, he seems to know that, as has mentioned it as an offseason goal, but it is an accuracy thing.
That's one of the things about Brady.
He puts it right on the numbers in the receiver's stride.
Josh doesn't, but he usually gets it there.
Weird thing, he usually nails the sideline routes like nobody I've seen.

"Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head "
Thank you for your contribution to the music industry.
I heard an interview with Thomas last year or so about that song.
He said that in order to get the nod to do it, Bacharach and David told him to sing it without any "styling" input.
Just do the song, or we'll get somebody else.

Dak could have used a little "arm arrogance" when he threw that pitiful one hop swing pass against us on the fourth and goal Thanksgiving pass.
A beauty that.

Astrophysicist explains why UFO videos fail to impress him
Frank said that he will read any government reports with interest, but said there may "be more prosaic explanations" like the possibility Russia and China are using drones to lure "our pilots into turning on their radar and other detectors, thus revealing our electronic intelligence capacities."
https://www.foxnews.com/science/astrophysicist-explains-why-reported-ufos-fail-to-impress-him
Not to weaken the astrophysicist's argument, but the Russians and Chinese already know a great deal about our F-18's radar and FLIR systems. They shadow aircraft carriers and have been for decades.
It would far more valuable an intel "get" to find out they were operating drones off the SOCAL coast.

You're my aunt!
Finally, after all these years, I found you.

James Harris, ex Bill, could get it there.
Just always didn't know where "there" was.
Kind of like a SCUD missile. Always get airborne, just not sure where it lands.

One of the narratives in the national media about Allen and Diggs that irks me a bit is that Diggs is always bailing Allen out and that without Diggs Allen would half as good as he is today.
Two points, Diggs is amazing and is hard to cover and he makes Allen's life way easier because he is open so often. That is a given, and in that respect, Diggs does help Allen out a lot. No argument from me. Thank God we have Diggs, he is incredible.
The second point, and the one that bothers me, is that the media pundits make it sound like Allen is throwing Diggs bad balls and Diggs is making circus catches all over the place saving Josh's hide. I just don't think that is the case at all.
I have a slightly different opinion.
The Bills offense benefits immensely from two components, and it explains a lot of long third down conversions which we've we've all seen and enjoyed, especially since the Thanksgiving Dallas game.
First component is Allen getting out of the pocket and buying time towards the sideline.
Second is the receivers recognizing the scramble drill and getting open when the initial timing of the play is disrupted.
I think the Bills are extremely good at the scramble drill passing offense, and especially Diggs and Beasley.
Josh gets them the ball because he has the ability to throw from many arm angles, even if his balls aren't super accurate.
So far, works for us.

It's also one of the main reasons why China manipulates their own currency. They want the Yen to challenge the dollar as a reserve currency, if not globally then at least regionally.
Been to China recently?
Don't try to buy dinner with yen.

I should have mentioned, if you need to replace that part, its a fabric gasket.
Ten minute job to replace.
Pull the old gasket off, use a chisel/knife/ blade of whatever sort to get the adhesive off, and put the new one on.
Let it sit for a day and your back in grilling business.

On your Vision, do you have issues with the seal? That was the one thing that ended up scaring me away from it— from reviews, people had to get some different kind of fabric to fix some issue with the seal not being tight enough.Not sure about other brands, but I replace the seal on my Primo about every three years.
Regular low and slow meals don't cause any wear and tear, but pizza and other things I do at about 500 degrees do.
Easy and cheap to find on Amazon or on any user forum for the particular brand.

My response is usually: Do you know your store takes the money and then gives the money to the charity taking a tax write off and getting some publicity? Really what you are asking is do I wish to donate to store.
My response is, I really wish I wasn't behind that guy.

Madrid wants to organize an NFL game at the new Bernabéu before 2025
in The Stadium Wall Archives
Posted
It's 3750 miles by air to Madrid with a six hour time difference.
It's 2125 to Seattle with a three hour time difference.
Additionally, because of the rules of the North Atlantic Track System, there are time restrictions to be followed when going east and when coming back. If not in those time slots, a longer route must be flown, or non optimum altitudes used, require more time.
Of course they fly charters, but Madrid is more of an issue than London.
