  1. Not sure you can include the Celtics in that group...they have a hard time attracting free-agents. Most of the top talent they have brought in over the years were the results of trades. The only real big-time talents that they have acquired over the last 10 years or so via free agency are Gordon (who played a total of about 8 minutes for them) and Horford, who is a good, not elite player. Kyrie Irving was obtained via trade...and there is a good chance he will be going elsewhere after this coming season, as he won't talk extension. Honestly, they are my team, so maybe I am biased, but I think the Celtics are building a really good team, the good old fashioned way...through the draft, and solid, if not spectacular mid-level free agent signings.
  2. Yeah, I agree PTR. I was on the edge of my seat that whole game... knowing that the longer it went on, the winner was going to be determined by a play or two...sadly, Bortles made those plays with his legs. As much as I enjoyed it, conventional opinion seems to be that it was one of the worst playoff games ever. If I didn't have any rooting interest in it, not sure how much I would have enjoyed it. Now, the Bills/Broncos 1991 AFC Championship game... that was a true defensive classic! I actually still have one...have transferred countless of old VHS tapes to DVD with it...I have about 300 Bills games on DVD. Lot of old NBA playoff games...Sabres games...old music things. Ironically, the older games transferred from VHS to DVD look better than high-def recordings from the last 15 years or so...
  3. Pin it on the fridge: the 2017 Buffalo Bills higlght film will show on the NFL NETWORK on Tuesday, July 17th, at 6pm eastern. Also, if you can't wait that long for some Bills action, NFL Network will show a re-broadcast of the Bills/Jaguars Wild Card "classic" on Wednesday, July 11th, 8pm eastern. Back on your heads!
  4. That one hurts...
  5. Congrats John..,.if nothing else, Lakers basketball will be relevant again. Love to see a Lakers/Celtics final. LeBron vs Kyrie!
  6. My favorite Bills season, ever.
  7. I'd rather have him than Ivory, but I don't mind the RB's we have right now. If he recovers from his injury, I think Travarid Cadet could be a real find.
  8. 1973 Dodge Dart. It wasn't mine until 1984. While the car in the picture isn't mine, it is identical...and like the car in the picture, my often needed the help of another vehicle to get it moving...
  9. Wasn't Gabriel a director of college scouting for the Bears at one time?
  10. Wow! Never realized that. I must say, I really don't hear it...but your info checks out.
  11. No, I don't want to see that either.
  12. You are an idiot, in the truest sense of the word.
  13. A foreign concept to your lot, choosing principle over profits.
  14. The free market deciding the cost of being a deplorable.
  15. I knew you (or one of you sociopaths) would say that. I also know, from your own absurd admission, that you see "Reagen as your hero and Trump as his clone (almost)". So, you either thought Reagan was pond scum, or you just worship pond scum. Either way, your perspective has no real validity, beyond the PPP fantasy world. Say what you will about Obama, or any before him...none were as morally bankrupt as Trump. The guy is an affront to decency. If you really think Obama was that indecent, it says more about you than anything...
  16. Not sure if you are being sarcastic or not...but I think this should be a real fear. Who in their right mind would want this job when all is said and done, other than somebody like Donald Trump?
  17. So you should have just said THEHARDTRUTH is racist, sexist and ableist, it that is what you meant to say...
  18. Dev, you either have a bad, or selective memory then....you don't remember Michell Obama being referred to as "moochelle" repeatedly by a prominant conservative radio host? And, not that it matters (but you brought it up), but Michelle has 7 inches on Sarah Sanders...
  19. I didn't read all the comments (but a lot of them), but overwhelmingly, they seem to be calling on people to boycott the show, in defense of Roseanne...lots of MAGA going on there.
  20. Azlain..my day job, i work with nothing but Trump supporters...no issues...hell, hou and i have probably watched a Bills game together at a Bills bar a time or two. When did i say anythimg counter to that? Take it up with the original poster. Though, i do think there are similarities here...there is a moral question in this case, not couched in a religious freedom issue.
  21. Back in the GW days, i was asked to leave a restaurant, as me and my two dining companions were discussing politics. In my opinions, we werent being particularly loud, or even disrespectful of the administration of that time. However, unbeknownst to us, Karen Hughes (former Bush campaign manager) and her party was seated next to us. It was their request to have us removed. So this dining controversey thing isnt all that new. Of course, i couldnt go on social media at that time to blast the restaurant. In the end, we were pretty much winding down anyways...a free meal out of the whole thing! I wasnt mad at the restaurant, or even Karen Hughes for that matter. Had i known she was there i likely would have changed the subject at the dinner table. Different times...
  22. I thought one of the big victories of the Trump era was that businesses could refuse service to anyone they find objectionable...bakers don't have to make cakes for gay weddings, and restaurants don't have to serve mouthpieces to Trump bull ****. It may be classless, but that is the way Trumpkins want it....no?
  23. Me too...but my confession? I am still not convinced he got a fair shake. He was in Buffalo for 4 years, started 17 games...he played reasonably well starting that 2013 season (2-2 start), but got knocked out of his 5th start. He never really was given a real shot after that. His development was very stunted. As Kelly said, he may have never emerged as an upper echelon guy, but he might have developed into a competant starter. We all remember the disaster in London, but he actually played really well in that game, minus that disaterous 2 minute stretch. But, eh...old news.
