If you don’t get a lot of replies after a week, would you be open to considering irreptutable vendors?

Which goes to show once again that every generation has it’s own “stuff.” I loved that show (or at least Robin Williams) in it’s time. I’m not sure how Ted Baxter would go over today, but he amused the hell out of me back then in that great cast. It’s all in the perspective. EDIT: But some things are classic, and they never get old. .

You have limits for the active roster, practice squad, etc. There is no limit of guys who are let go but still have an active lease on a property in WNY convenient for Bills players. It makes those frequent returns so much easier.

When I was in college there were reruns constantly and on the day of the week that a new episode came out we could watch MASH five times in a single day. I suppose I should have graduated much sooner, but that was the thing then, and with so many great characters. Cheers is another one with multiple great characters. And News Radio. There are a ton of options just in my personal wheelhouse, so I was a no vote above.

Didn’t they win a boatload of one score games last year? Like our turnover stats from a year ago, things tend to come back to the norm given time.

Am I the only one who has never seen more than a few seconds of the Al Buddy character? “Ever” is a big claim, so I’ll say no.

Should the Chiefs cut Veach? Is that the easy answer too?

Thank you! It’s easy for “our fans” to pick apart our drafts, but it’s clear that we are not the only team who doesn’t hit on every pick. EVERY team has hits and misses. I wish people would stop acting like we are the only team who doesn’t draft a Pro Bowl player in every round.

My mind immediately went to Jadaveon Clowney not being blocked at all in college and the RB didn’t have his chin strap on properly. Instant legend status, for some reason. These have to be 2 of the top 5 for me personally. You could throw in Lynn Swan making an acrobatic catch in a Super Bowl vaulting him into the HOF, as well.

Yes, and yes.

There’s the spirit! 😂

I don’t care WHERE we get a competent WR, I just care THAT we get a competent WR.

Thank you! We are fairly savvy people (OK, my wife is) with banking backgrounds, and this was a nightmare for us. It was concerning enough that she went to a local college and took a Medicare class. Fortunately, we were blessed with a financial planner as a perk from her employer. This guy is super smart (he works for a division of Goldman) and saved us a bunch in potential tax penalties. We asked about Medicare and he said he couldn’t help us, it is it’s own animal. He hooked us up with an advisor who guided us thru everything. He presented options, but he also kept us from doing anything that would bite us later. The best deal is often the deal that is going to go away first, for example. So my wife mentions that her “professor” at the college class was pushing Advantage plans as the best option. Our guide again reminded us he is an hourly worker for a company that helps people like us, with zero commission. He asked my wife if the “professor” mentioned that they get paid at a higher rate when they sell Advantage. He didn’t say it was better or worse (it depends I guess), but that might explain why he’s pushing it. For everyone. That would be nice to know. Back to your point….this stuff is WAY too complicated for most people in this country. You’re at their mercy unless you’ve done your homework, and even if you have you are still at their mercy. The BOMBARDMENT of solicitations alone can make you dizzy! It’s a mess. Rant over. .

That wouldn’t surprise me. I think I’ve got it and I’ve just been watching! .

Looking good for his age. I’m sure the outfit will be back in style soon. I won’t be the last sucker here…..

We hosted the neighborhood Christmas party that evening with about 70 guests. I watched the game in the basement, while a few people came down to see me like an animal in the zoo. I was not good company, and we are not hosting the party this year.

My wife’s cousin rented up the street from us when we were first married. They had a GIANT pileated woodpecker who had pecked a hole in the siding and was living in their attic. The owner had someone put a sheet of metal over the hole, and the bird pecked a new hole right next to it and moved back into the attic. We were over there for drinks one night and he asked if we wanted to go upstairs and see Woody. It was at this point in re-telling the story years later that our close friend turned to her college age daughter and said, without missing a beat, “just so you know, the answer to that question is always NO!” .

Our old Veterinarian retired and started a photo shoot by boat deal on the waters around Hilton Head Island, SC. He’ll even provide the camera and do the touch up work before sending you your file. Cool experience. This is one of several pics I got of this majestic creature.

What if the Chiefs offered a 6th or 7th round pick for him. Would that make you nervous about what might come to be down the road? Did anyone want to get rid of Bishop at any point in time? It’s not time to do a deal now, so I’ll wait and see what happens before making any premature decisions. .

That’s what you do when that’s all you got…..

There were times early when I thought Special Teams might be the only thing we would win. They won comfortably, but it didn’t make me feel any better about things (short term). My wife agreed and said it out loud before I could. She used to just watch politely, but 40 years of this has made her one of us. But those returns were like that drive you crushed off the 17th tee that keeps your spirits up and keeps you coming back. Let the leaves in the yard wait. There was no genius to it. Guys can miss a lane sometimes, but generally there is somewhere to go, or there is not. There are a lot of guys running and crashing out there, and I’m just praying OUR guys don’t draw a flag.

At least they showed it and talked about it. I’m still wondering about the holding call on Dawson Knox from the game before, where the guy just fell down and there was little to no replay, review or discussion. I guess that by comparison, this was good. Refs are like OL, they hope nobody is talking about them after a game, because it’s rarely good. .

Damn Beane, always drafting losers like this! He’s a classic case of a guy who needs some time, but his upside is actually more than I expected. I was hoping he could improve to “decent”, but he’s done much more than that. It seems things have slowed down for him and he’s become a playmaker.

It’s a shame he didn’t get immunized to prevent this type of injury.

There is an exemption for balsa wood “jets” who use a rubber band to get the propeller turning.
