    Thanks for inquiring! Yep, got the 2nd stab this a.m.. interestingly, I’m not as ecstatic or feeling liberated as I envisioned. arm is sore but tolerable. Gotta say, I’m dreading tonight/tomorrow. I’m a woos when I’m sick.. 

    Focusing on bellying up to a beach bar by Saturday, my ‘2 shot verification card’ firmly in my wallet! Calling the Bills ticket office next week! 

     

    P.S. if I’m not heard from til the weekend, I woosed out again. it’s my MO..🤦‍♂️

     

    Best wishes, all!

     Keep in mind that it is estimated to take a couple weeks for the 2nd dose to take full effect. Even then you do NOT become invincible to the virus. It just means that the odds greatly increase that you will NOT get seriously ill and/or die from becoming infected. There is a difference!

    Have my first one scheduled for Friday.  Made sure it was Pfizer.

     

    I've known a good chunk of people that already gotten the shot (lots of RNs and older people).  Pfizer just seems to have the least amount of adverse reactions.  Also, for some reason, it seems that people who have routinely gotten the flu shot year after year, their body also seems to handle the shot better.

     

    My dad just completed his two shots.  First one, really nothing.  Second one, felt light headed for a couple days.  Hoping for the same reactions for myself.

    I'm mid 60s (which co-incidentally matches when I first became a Bills fan) and have always gotten flu shots every year. The only real reaction I have had to either of the 2 Moderna doses was a slight sore arm. Word of advice - Always get your shots in the arm that you DON'T sleep on! I always sleep on my right shoulder hence I always get my vax in my Left arm!

    My ex-wife is reporting feeling terrible after 7pm yesterday through now, after #2. Hopefully it gets better as the day goes on.

    When my wife and I got our 2nd Moderna doses this past Sunday she had slight flu like symptoms for about 24 hrs or so while I only had the sore arm for a few days. I actually felt great the 1st day after the jab other than the sore arm. I mention this because oddly enough whenever I had gotten the flu inn the past I would normally feel great too the day before I would come down with flu like symptoms (weird huh) By the way, I sleep on my right side, so I always get my vaccinations in my left arm. That would be my recommendation to others.  

  4. I have also been diabetic (type 2) for many years. It's only in the last two years that I've been able to get things under real control. I am NOT a doctor and am NOT giving medical advice but I have learned that carbohydrates (bread, potatoes, rice) have a pronounced effect on blood glucose levels. I personally avoid alcohol almost 100% of the time. It's a small price to pay in my mind for better health. You may wish to look up the Keto diet as I have lost 80lbs and gotten my A1c levels down to the low 5's. I'd personally also recommend you check out the Beat Diabetes! channel on youtube. The man is NOT a doctor but the things I've learned watching his channel have helped me immeasurably. Good Luck!

    3 first round picks are a lot but I also feel like QBs make too much money these days. One player shouldn't be making $40 million a year and handicapping a team

     

    I understand your concern but keep in mind that the Bills have Allen cheap for one last year. And with the new NFL TV deals the salary cap will be going up significantly in the future. Or would you prefer to watch Mitch/Mitchell play QB?

    The Josh Allen was a high risk and high reward payout, J Allen success was much more the exception to the rule than "the rule".  And the Bills brought him up correctly, kept same system, some HC,  OC, got actual NFL receivers around him.  Had J Allen gone to a dysfunctional team like the Adam Gase Jets, i would think J Allen would be viewed as a failure right now.

     

    And no three #1 is NOT too much to give up to a proven TOP TIER  franchise QB.  D Watson pre scandal was easily worth 3 #1s imo.

     

    Unfortunately, these guys are NOT "PROVEN ANYTHING" at this point. And let's not forget that the 49ers currently have a QB on a reasonable contract though he is somewhat injury prone perhaps. Sure it's one thing to acquire a PROVEN QB like a Watson but that is not what we are talking about here. These are unproven rookies.

  7. Everything I have heard/read suggests that the 2nd Jab tends to provoke more side effects than the 1st Jab does... One side note about the card they give you though, I really think they could have condensed it a bit more so it is more credit card sized... Or is it meant to be folded in half?

    The problem is Diggs is underpaid and the Bills are going to him and asking him to do something with his deal. That gives him leverage to say "sure I will do your restructure but you need to sweeten the pot a little because I am way better than the 17th best receiver in the league." 

     

    I don't think he is going to demand a fortune. But I think the Bills might need to offer some new money as well as escalating the money he is already due by making it a bonus.

     

    And it is another oportunity to reward excellence and performance. Players like Diggs and Allen are leaders. They deserve to be well compensated.
