This seems a little weird. His PT is really going to go way up over at OK State? I think they have like 2-3 guys that would be ahead of him. Am I off on this?

So, wait. If Tua was terrible with no fans in the stadium, what does that mean for him?

I don’t know if I could give up my gas mower. There’s nothing like the uncertainty I face every spring as to whether or not it will start, pulling on the cord about 20 times, fiddling around with the oil and gas, pretending I know how to replace a spark plug, and then eventually taking it to the repair shop.

I don’t really know anything about this guy. Was he really supposed to be our swing tackle? Without him, who do we have?

About $10M per sack!

Pfizer dose 2 has knocked my wife out for a full day and a half so far. I have my second dose of moderna Coming up, and I heard it can be even rougher than Pfizer.

I don’t think anyone is defending him going 84.9MPH while drunk. But your explanation of the ramp does help clarify this in my mind. The way they described an “on ramp,” it made it sound like your traditional on ramp, and I had no idea how someone could accelerate like that on a normal on ramp (which I would expect would have a sharp curve too). This sounds almost more like some long access road.

it always amazes me who sticks in the NBA and who doesn’t. For example, I can’t believe Brad Wanamaker from Pitt is a serious NBA player. I agree with you though re Tyus. I always felt Tyus was similar to Waiters as an NBA prospect.

It is a bad decision for him to come out, but I suspect he had no choice. He can’t transfer again. I can see him bouncing around the G league for a few years and then sticking with an NBA team. He seems like a guy that ends up with a 10-year NBA career as a decent role player. It helps that his dad can help him Get in the best position in the NBA.

I don’t even know how you generate that sort of speed on an on-ramp. Even if he hadn’t hit that car, he was probably going to crash somewhere that night. I misread it. You are right— it was 83.9 mph. Just insane.

He was going 89 MPH?!

agreed. His confused looks are actually endearing. But hiring an agent and going pro is pretty much an Allan Griffin move. it is just the perfect end to his weird college Bball career.

I think the research is still being done on how long the vaccine lasts— but most things I have read say at least 6 months. So you’d think people may want to be cramming a Lot of trips within the next 6 months or so. I know we are heading to Colorado for a week— But would like to do something else, like maybe Acadia.

like, physically go to where it is being held and watch?

i think the Bills FO realize this and really like DS. I think there’s 0% chance they move him.

Good point re expected production. But I think my point still holds— Addison and Houston are the “same” type of player. Older vets with similar and steady sack and pressure stats.

Not sure what the difference is between Houston and Addison. Both guys should get you in that 6-8 sacks range.

As a parent of some big time Pokémon fans, This is awesome!

oh wow— I totally forgot about those commercials!

Bruce Smith has always been my favorite player. Consistent with your experience, I was talking to a former player on that Bills' defense a few years ago, and he said Bruce was the biggest jerk.

many of you are pretty rough on the Bills! I don't "hate" players for playing poorly. For example, I saw some people up thread saying they hate guys that were 7th round draft picks who didn't play well (Puccillo; Justin Rogers)-- not sure what you all are expecting out of 7th rounders?? I only "hate" guys that were bad actors-- i.e., didn't play hard; were bad teammates; or were bad guys on/off the field.

I seriously forgot he was ever even On the team. Wow.

I will say that I stand corrected in part. I didn’t realize it, but you are right that speed positions like CB, WR, and LB tend to have the highest concussions. but this study (summarized in the article below) shows that the types of concussions are much different between speed and non-speed players, such that the concussions that linemen get are much more likely to lead to CTE. https://www.inverse.com/article/37934-nfl-funded-study-brain-injury

I didn't see that he had those two concussions with the Raiders. I am not ruling out CTE. It just seems to affect certain positions more than others-- less likely to be a CB who didn't really play much. Your classic CTE players are o and d-linemen, who are smashing their heads into each other for years. Again, not saying he didn't have it or CB's don't get it-- just seems less likely.
