  1. So did you stick it out, And not swallow your pride? Or did you spit it out, And not swallow the lies?
  2. When do we hear that Wade is placed on protected PS?(unless they already IRd him). Is so, I would have expected that a long time ago...Or are we not counting him at this time?
  3. Point 1 I was under the impression that Cuomo said in NY it's the golden bullet that will prevent deaths and stop the spread. I also know that based on the CDC's response to vaccinations and their making guidelines they had the exact same thoughts. Point 2 It's labeled as breakthrough because the mRMA vaccines were marketed as 94-95% effective from getting COVID. Breakthroughs are for those who do get COVID after a certain time period after full dosage (14 or 28 days after second ***** dependant on who you speak to). If the amount of fully vaccinated persons who contact COVID stays at 5%, well that's perfectly reasonable. It's when you start hitting double digits that the efficacy of the initial vaccine has gone down. And some may be out there to create narratives. I just want people to see facts, not just propaganda ( be it from whatever side is coming from)
  4. I agree that vaccines are preventing hospitalizations and deaths. However we should clearly define our terms here. However I cited two papers that show breakthroughs are happening at the less than severely I'll level and that the vaccine isn't a silver bullet for stopping the spread. I get two does not a pattern make, but we need to be realistic about their role. We need to stop sensationalizing the vaccines as the one stop cure and teach people how to slow the spread of illness. Say what the vaccines are good for: preventing you from getting seriously ill from the virus. It doesn't mean you can't be spreading COVID. COVID is also evolving. Delta has evolved enough to force sub-lineage changes AY.1- AY.3 and to divide them further again. But that's not my point, my point is that studies are starting to show that vaccinated persons are likely spreading COVID at higher rates than thought. And that calls for the healthcare community community to relook at the best ways to slow the spread and slow the mutations.
  5. CDC has done some massive dancing in your link. First describing breakthroughs as 'For the purpose of this surveillance, a vaccine breakthrough infection is defined as the detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA or antigen in a respiratory specimen collected from a person ≥14 days after they have completed all recommended doses of a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-authorized COVID-19 vaccine.' However, when they give a number it's 'CDC received reports from 49 U.S. states and territories of 8,054 patients with COVID-19 vaccine breakthrough infection who were hospitalized or died.' That's a massive goalpost shift. Now if we all CLEARLY understand these breakthroughs as 'severe enough to cause hospitalization or death' than that low number is right. With that said, however, the number of breakthrough cases is much higher. Pfizer looks to be less effective against Delta, close to 1 in 2 vaccinated may become infected and pass the virus on. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cnbc.com/amp/2021/08/12/mayo-clinic-covid-breakthrough-risk-may-be-much-lower-with-moderna-vaccine-than-pfizer.html I wish that this was a one off study, but I don't think it is. A study in Massachusetts found that 74% of the COVID cases found in the study were in fully vaccinated people. https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/pdfs/mm7031e2-H.pdf My point isn't to scare anyone, but to read a little bit more into what you are seeing. The major Delta strain multiplies faster than our bodies immune system can respond, along with a shorter incubation period so that you can spread the disease.
  6. The placement of a stadium downtown is not out of the question on their currently owned parking lots. Would it be tough to get to, yup. Would there be ZERO parking, yup. But placing a stadium downtown is not too difficult to imagine. In fact with the recent massive construction projects happening around there, it could be said that maybe it's been in the plans for a while, upto and including the DL&W terminal, it sure seems like they have been working on that infrastructure. They would find a way to connect the arena, HarborCenter and the stadium and could get the Lucas Oil Stadium look. Just wanting to toss out that is not out of the realm of possibility.
  7. This was a while ago, a la 2013 while ago. I was gifted the seats for a one time experience. It was cold out and I was happy to have some heat. Some shocks to the butt weren't going to stop my experience!
  8. I can also tell you from experience that they don't cover exposed electrical components upon wearing out. My posterior was toasty but I also received an ridiculous amount of shocks that got me to jump up out of my seat! And that was the only time I was in those nice seats....
  9. I heard Tasker day that the Bills were experimenting with Hart on the right side. That's possibly the only thing he had going for him. You don't play that many games and whiff as bad as you did yesterday routinely. Something scheme or setup is off for him.
  10. Can we compare Stevenson to Mackenzie? Cause that's the place he would have to usurp. And the one chance Mackenzie had to catch this game he couldn't. I like the idea of jet sweeps with him.
  11. Too bad for Hamlin. And yet this entire time I've been calling him Denny.
  12. That was a great interception! Looking for roughing the passer penalty.
  13. Wow that PI was uncatchable. Should have been just a holding or illegal contact
  14. Wow, for a national reporter, Cynthia Freiland has a hard time getting words out. It's like she's really nervous.
  15. In that case, you are correct. I thought Brieda was there at first, then I saw oline only live I was hoping they wouldn't see it!
  16. Incorrect if a receiver is in the area. Brieda should have stayed in for the screen, and he bailed.
  17. So does this mean Ertz to Buffalo is dead or that Dawson Knox failed TE University?
  18. So much to do in Buffalo. History buffs can use the Boy Scout Historical Trail program to visit some extremely vital history spots in WNY. http://www.wnyscouting.org/resources/the-niagara-frontier-trail-medal-program/67514 For instance, the Teddy Roosevelt Inaugural site on Delaware, the Niagara Falls underground railroad museum next to the Falls train station, Fort Niagara, (as has been mentioned billions of times) the Martin house, Forest Lawn Cemetery, the Power Vista (for the engineer minded), Canalside and the naval museum. That's only the tip of things to do outside of stuffing your face with food and drinks. Best of all, enjoy your trip!
  19. After these leaks about going to Cleveland... Is this where we say Watt is ground up in my freezer? That's how this goes right? 🍔
