  1. Did you really mean this? You can buy GME or anything else anywhere else. Robinhood restriction has infinitely little to do with the ability to buy this or other issues.
  2. I did. Zero Obvious Deviation In Any Conclusions.
  3. Two sons, one with wife and two year old grand daughter coming over at 6. Low country boil on the table at 7. Killer recipe available. Don't feel stress about this game. Great if we win. Great season if we don't.
  4. That Wall of Famer Jim Ritcher achieved a lifelong dream by becoming an airline pilot after retiring, and flew as a co-pilot on a Dolphin 757 charter to a Bills away game.
  5. I'll go with Edmunds. I've always thought he could have a freakish game, and if he makes Lamar Jackson miserable, I'd be really happy.
  6. Unusual. There isn't a single bad post in this thread. Still, the thread would be slightly better if horseradish was included at some point.
  7. I know one thing about the guy. He's a weather freak/worrier.
  8. The refs need to perform in a manner that doesn't cause that reaction. That was a horrible call, and thankfully didn't effect the outcome.
  9. He was apoplectic. I thought my laptop screen was going to explode. Stopped just short of calling on Bills fans to light torches and storm the NFL offices.
  10. I was thinking it would be just our luck if they ruled him down and then flagged Milano for a late hit on the play because, you know, he was "down" and all.
  11. It's a very, very, very fine house. Two cats in the yard. Sorry, couldn't resist.
  12. I think that is an accurate assessment. He just looks like he is much more confident in getting into the right play, and seeing what is coming and what will beat it. To digress, it reminds me of an interaction I had with a guy on an airplane who was at a 2007 UVA game and claimed to be an southeast scout for an NFL team which he wouldn't mention. I asked him if he had seen our fourth round pick that year, Ko Simpson and what he thought. He kind of laughed and said "believe the wonderlic," with the inference being that Ko wasn't smart and wasn't a good pick. Re Josh, believe the wonderlic.
  13. And now we find this out? The earth is spinning faster than it has in 50 years... https://www.ign.com/articles/the-earth-is-spinning-faster-than-it-has-in-50-years Have we accounted for this? Do the Colts even know? Does it favor a short passing game? I tell ya fellas, if it's not one thing it's another.
  14. Started a lifelong quest, as yet unfulfilled, to find a way to mute Todd Christenson's voice.
  15. Twenty seven years and I still am trying to figure out a way to mute Todd Christenson's voice.
  16. I did a number of sports charters. They are nothing like what you describe. They show up usually at an off terminal ramp. The airplane is ready and their air cargo is already aboard. They get on in about fifteen mins max, and are on their way. There are rarely any delays to takeoff, since they are off hub schedules. Certainly not any delays in Indy or Buffalo. They offload at another off terminal site. The busses are warmed up and waiting and the hotel is not far away. Same on the way home.
  17. On an NFL charter, the coaching staff continues to plan and meet during the flight. They carry briefing books and go over them from start to finish.
  18. At least we are at home. We would be tremendously disadvantaged if we had to adjust from Orchard Park's 600' msl elevation to Indianapolis' 732'.
  19. The more I watch the Bills operate, the more I come to the same conclusion. They simply run the scramble drill better than anyone, and a t a level that it is extremely difficult to defend. It isn't that complicated. They run four or five man patterns. If the initial throw is open, Josh throws it. It often isn't. Running four or five man sets means Josh may have to escape one or more guys. Not enough blockers. He almost always does, if its only one guy. And the scramble drill begins. Our receivers now have the entire field to find a hole, as any zone or man responsibilities are broken down, (and by now, and its all man), and it is often the sideline. Josh, (and this ridiculous "not accurate" thing folds), can put the ball in a mailbox for 25 yards on the sideline, less successful in the middle, but certainly has the ability to throw across the field. I love what Daboll calls, but the strength of our offense is in Josh's ability to avoid the first pass rusher, which allows us to send one more receiver into the money zone, and run the scramble drill time and time again, and his ability make any throw.
  20. Two ways to answer that. The first is to compare the matchup and see who we best compare to. The second is to want to beat someone. I want to destroy the Dolphins.
  21. Useless win, and I don't believe you. Bills fans have been through this before, in the 68 season, when a generational talent named OJ Simpson was going first. A last month one win game wasn't worth losing him. If the Jets lose this "opportunity," it not only has the chance to effect the AFC East for years, it also has the potential to significantly determine head coaching and coordinator jobs for your franchise, and carries a potentially massive trade option hit. Enjoy your win. Immediate gratification is deserved, but it might be the very definition of a pyrrhic victory. Couldn't work out any better for the rest of the division.
  22. Lewis and Clark was a "cross country trip." Buffalo to Denver isn't.
