  1. Justice Dept is filling an antitrust suit against Ticketmaster. Although the linked article specifically talks about the concert business, I Hope this helps reduce the cost of NFL tickets on the resale market. I am not generally pro-regulation. But I do believe that Ticketmaster has unfair advantages and their business model has many aspects of a monopoly. Prices to attend sporting events and concerts have gone insane the last few years. In my opinion, way above where true free-market conditions would have taken prices. https://www.yahoo.com/news/us-sues-break-live-nation-143239439.html
  2. True. But you can always look for the restaurants and stores with "we speak English" signs. On a serious note, it's well worth the trip. A lot good restaurants and beach hotels between Miami & Fort Lauderdale. And tons of bills fans at the game and around town. I will probably miss this year for a business trip, but will only be the 2nd time in 20+ years that I won't see the Bills in Miami. Josh generally destroys the fish, so it's been a good time for us in recent years
  3. It would have been better to have the double header week, so we get the alternate announcers. We don't want Buck & Aikman doing Bills. Buck is the worst & Aikman is annoying, but more importantly the Bills are 0'fer with those 2 guys announcing games
  4. When did he become Uber talented? I would think his agent would want to publicize that development
  5. Akron, Ball State and Louisville should also be good match ups now
  6. I think Troy Franklin or Mitchell are the WRs still left w the highest ceiling. If you're going double dip on WR tonight either w 3rd pick or vet trade. Take the risk on the upside with 33.
  7. That's amazing that it's been 21 years with 32 teams in the league. If there are some talented white CBs coming out of HS, I bet a lot of those guys automatically try to make it as a WR or switch to safety when they get to college. Last year Riley Moss, also out of Iowa, was rated as potential starting CB and got drafted by Denver. Don't remember hearing about him after the draft, and it looks like he only got in a few games as part time player late in the season. Not sure if he had an injury?
  8. That's bad luck. But also pretty damn stupid. At his own wedding he can't plan transportation? Or just walk if it's 3 blocks. Funny how poor planning and dumb decisions lead to bad luck
  9. Trubisky Kind'a makes sense. I do think he was a very good fit in the Daboll offense. Not sure how he'll do with Brady and the current offense. Hopefully we never find out.
  10. Good move by the Fish. I would rather that he stayed on their team and continue to be overpaid.
  11. I think that would be bad for the league long term. Private Equity groups have a ruined so many previously strong family businesses in recent decades. But it does make sense, there aren't too many individuals who can buy a majority share of an NFL club with values now exceeding $5B.
  12. Yep. Sunk costs. Let's say they have a chance to sign either Floyd or Jadeveon Clowney to a 1 year $5 million contract. It just comes down to who they think gives them the best value and best chance to have a good season. Floyd's old contract doesn't matter because they already paid his signing bonus in 2023.
  13. That post from DCofNC made me look up Blake Bortles. He's been out the league for 4 years. Last season was an LA Rams backup in 2019. He went to the AFCG as a relatively young QB in 2017 and was out of the league after 2 more years. And not injury related.
  14. As noted above. The Chiefs got the idea for the play from the Bills. Bills used it against the Chiefs in their previous Divisional playoff matchup
