I almost always find Burr hilarious. The accent, to me, just makes him more genuine vs. most other comedians so it’s a plus. If you haven’t listened to his helicopter schtick, look it up. He’s also a bit anti-PC so I feel guilty liking him! 🤔

https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/35200158/jim-leonhard-leave-wisconsin-staff-bowl-game Took over as interim HC this year after the team fired the incumbent after leading the team to a poor record. Leonhard turned the team around to make a Bowl game. Players lobbied for him to get the gig permanently but the school went another direction. They wanted him to return in his previous roll as DC and he told them to pound sand. The starting QB wanted him as well. We Leonhard didn't get the HC job, the QB entered the transfer portal. Sound like Leonhard is potentially a sought after commodity for a HC job in Division I football. Good for him. Smart player and looks like a good coach.

He is 2nd year LB Darrell Taylor (#52) out of Tennessee. He’s a backup OLB that, from the stats, rarely sees the field. Like most of you, given his experience and typical playing time, he probably saw his teammate hit the turf and assumed he was down like most of his pre-professional career. Excitement and experience won out over coaching.

I agree. I don't think he was anti-Buffalo. I just think that he wasn't good enough to contribute when he was here. He seemed to play better with the Raiders (what little I saw of him there) and he's projecting out to an 80 catch, 700 yard season for the Jags. Nice to see him staying in the league and finding a fit.

Zay Jones had a career day for Jacksonville as the Jags beat the Ravens in the last seconds. Jones stat line: 11 catches, 145 yards, and...the winning 2 point conversion catch! He also made a spectacular 29 yard catch on the final drive to keep the Jags hopes alive. The Ravens had a chance but Justin Tucker left a 67-yard field goal attempt about a yard short. What a wimp. They should waive him now! 😁 Coincidentally, Jones also caught the game winning overtime catch last year to beat the Ravens while with the Raiders. Zay Jones...Raven Killer.

From the fumbled snap to the failure to play a 4th and long like it's a Hail Mary situation, I certainly think coaching is to blame. The Bills knew they were going to run a QB sneak the second that they made the goal line stand. Allen and Morse should have been practicing snaps on the sideline for a minute or two when that situation arose to ensure the most like failure point on that play was taken care of. Make a good snap there and the game is over or, at worst case, we give up a safety and set them back into their territory with no TOs and very little time. On the 4th and long for the Vikings, the coaches should have been drilling it into the secondary to play that like a Hail Mary and just try to "knock it down". The should have called a timeout before that play to ensure that everyone was on the right page because that was the ballgame if we just communicate that correctly to the players. Going back to the KC playoff game, the same knuckleheaded coaching showed up with 31 seconds left. Trying to keep them away from the sidelines while they had 3 timeouts. Timeouts were meaningless, yardage was the key point of failure. Again, they blew it. I hate to say it but Bill Bill Belichick doesn't have teams making those mistakes.

I don't know that it is "intuitive", which was my point. The AG has to prove that was the case otherwise Snyder and the NFL will not be liable. Fraud can certainly be committed by people who have poor reputations (a.k.a. Snyder) on their customer base. The public was aware of the investigation. The secrecy that the team and the NFL engaged in to keep any investigation results from being made public points to the fact that at least the team and league felt public disclosure would have deleterious affects on revenue. I agree it is difficult to prove that type of case against any company. Had the NFL and the team publicly disclosed the results of the investigation (while keeping the names of the victims secret), there would be no case. Fraud requires that the perpetrator misrepresent or hide information from its victims (i.e. the paying fanbase) in order to get their money. Again, I think this case may be hard to prove but I have no way of knowing what information/testimony the AG already has in his pocket. Does he have members of team management on record telling him that the team and the NFL colluded to keep information from the public to protect team/league revenue? Does he have information that the NFL lied when they claimed that they wouldn't release the findings of the investigation to "protect the victims"? It will certainly be interesting to see what comes out publicly from the trial.

I don't think the charging documents mention Snyder being "a dick" but I'll check. 🙄 Full disclosure, I live in the DC Metro area in Northern Virginia but work in D.C. The team’s facilities are a football throw from my house….if I were Josh Allen. Lastly, my neighbor’s daughter interned with the team and did not have nice words about her experience. Two things can be true: The Washington Red…grrr…Commanders defrauded the citizens of D.C. who paid for tickets when they might not otherwise had known the full scope of team management, the NFL, et al. hiding information regarding misconduct by the team that included potentially criminal behavior (most of which took place at the team’s facility in Ashburn, VA.). The retiring AG of D.C. is looking to score political points knowing the team’s management is wildly unpopular in the region. To what end a retiring AG needs political points is yet to be determined. Perhaps he plans to run for higher office in the region at some point. Nonetheless, he probably put a lot of hours into this investigation and wants that work to come to fruition before he leaves office. None of that matters in this case if the team has done what the AG is charging them with. BTW, every AG in every jurisdiction has political instincts that drive their behaviors at times. They are elected, not appointed...and I'm shocked...shocked that there is gambling going on here!!! Did the team mislead the public about the activities that their management engaged in during the last several years? Did the NFL work to keep any investigation from seeing the light of day in order to “protect the shield”. Absolutely, IMO. Why hide the results of an investigation unless it had financial implications for the team and the league? It’s all about the Benjamins. Did that effectively “defraud” the public? That’s the only real question that matters here. If the AG can prove that hiding the facts in this case had the effect of increasing ticket sales (or in this case keep sales from falling faster), maintaining merchandise revenue or benefiting the team and the NFL in other financial ways – they are likely to be found guilty. This is a civil case so Daniel won't be spending and time on his knees in the DC Central Detention Facility…as ironically fitting as that might be. Not knowing all of the evidence the AG has in this case, it’s really hard for me to claim that the AG is acting inappropriately and that the team is unfairly being persecuted. Based on everything I’ve seen on this…which living here means “a lot”...the AG probably has a pretty good case. Let go of the dove, Roy… 🙂

Looking at the starters and the horrible QB play we’re seeing, I count upwards of 11 teams where I think Fitz would outplay the current starters. Come on Fitz, hang up the mic and add another jersey to your closet! 😁 What’s your number?

Davis Webb to Start for the Giants on Sunday
BisonMan replied to BisonMan's topic in The Stadium Wall
Just the opposite. I think it’s great he’s dating someone from a local school. My brother graduated from there and my father was a professor there. I have only high regard for Canisius College. 👍 Yeah, CHS students were stuck dating the priests. 😬 -
Davis Webb to Start for the Giants on Sunday
BisonMan replied to BisonMan's topic in The Stadium Wall
I went to Canisius HS and very few students looked like that! 🤪 -
Next man up with Daniel Jones and Tyrod injured. I’m rooting for him as he seems like a good guy that was well liked in the Bills QB rooom…and dates a Canisius College graduate!

Given that none of the 32 teams in the league signed him in the offseason, I sincerely doubt his political views had any role in his being released. He's clearly on the downside of his career and everyone knows it. Tampa signed him after losing a bunch a WRs to injury. He did catch 1 pass yesterday on a 3rd and very long. He was wide open (no underneath coverage) and ran the ball 2 more yards before tripping over his own feet for a gain of 5 yards. Hard pass on Beasley even if he was still on the street.

Week 4, 10/02/22, Bills v. Ravens GAME BALLS
BisonMan replied to Freddie's Dead's topic in The Stadium Wall
I stand corrected! Had to watch the replay again…with the sound off. Charles Davis su@#s as a commentator, btw. 🤮 -
Seriously, we laugh but that's basically sexual assault...caught on camera...repeatedly for Wilkins.

Barkley is so fast that he'll get tackled behind the line by unblocked defenders that much sooner than our current backs. Over the course of the game, that would have saved those few seconds we needed at the end of the Dolphins game to spike the ball! 🤦♂️ Say it: "FIX THE LINE and WE'LL BE FINE"

Week 4, 10/02/22, Bills v. Ravens GAME BALLS
BisonMan replied to Freddie's Dead's topic in The Stadium Wall
In this order Poyer - 2 picks, 3 passes defensed and 6 tackles Milano - 13 tackles and 2 for losses Edmunds - 9 tackles and 2 for losses Frazier - Another masterful strategy against an opponent that is really tough to game plan against. I think he officially owns Greg Roman. Allen - After the 1st quarter, where he looked overhyped Singletary...uh...NO. Outside of the 18yd run where he ran basically untouched, he had 10 carries for 30 yards and a costly fumble (3 points for the Ravens). Of course, the o-line run blocking is atrocious. He did contribute well in the screen game. Knox...NO. Had one good catch but he stopped on the route in the 1st quarter that resulted in the pick by Humphries. He keeps going and it's in his chest. He basically gave 7 points to Baltimore. McClappy gets an honorable mention for his end-game clock management. -
2022 U.S. Open - Jessica Pegula (8) Loses to Świątek (1) in Quarterfinals 😭
BisonMan replied to Gugny's topic in Off the Wall
Posted this on the main board but probably should have here. Pretty funny. -
For reaching the Quarterfinals of the US Open this week before losing a close match to World #1 Ida Swiatek. She is now the top ranked American in Women’s tennis at #8. She also has a very Buffalo way to hydrate during the post-match press conference!

Agreed. Howard doesn’t seem to have risen in the depth chart. Cutting him would hurt a lot on the cap. The Giants TE group sucks. Call Dabs and make a deal!
