Pete Rose just rolled over.

My greatest fear is that we will be relegated to the CFL. They have a lot of crazy rules to get used to.

I might take a break from being a Bills fan if that A-hole was a part of our program. I saw enough of him up close and personal when we were in the Tampa market when he won with Dungy’s team against the Raiders who were too stupid to change their calls against their old HC. He’s the same little jerk who blames other people for exposing him which booted him out of the league. He said that ****. That’s really him. Our kids had 7 on 7’s together, and I saw that little **** up close. Buc’s players had terrible things to say about him. He is not someone I would follow, but it might allow for me to make a complete break from the NFL.

You ask for a numerical answer to a non-mathematical question. With some other dangerous guys along the line, I’d say “some”.

True, but it’s not an answer to the question. With Ed and Hoecht I’d feel very different about our future. Just a healthy Ed if we get that far would help my peace of mind going into a game.

That’s fair enough. For just this season? What if we got healthy? How about next season?

This is nice, to have it all concentrated in one place after a loss. I suspect it will leak out, as it always does, but it can be kind of a hub.

I completely agree it’s been undervalued. I also think Waddle enjoyed today more than any recent game he can remember. He schooled Hairston a bit, but I still feel good going forward.

We never draft high enough to get a sure thing, so there’s that. Oh, and the sure things aren’t sure things.

Are you trying to beat the rush on the way out? It’s always hard to time the market.

Old school? If this means we wrap up when we tackle, instead of the old body slam and hope we hurt ‘em (and pray they don’t keep running), I’m all in. .

My most recent trips to the beach do not give me warm images of beautiful girls in thongs. I think most people would benefit from more clothes, not less.

You’ve got your seats, and now you have your time free for other things.

It’s Indiana, so he’s probably an 85%+ Free Throw shooter as well! I’ve been watching a bit of Indiana ball lately due to their success and our neighbors lawn flag across the street making me curious. Just bits of a few games, but thx, I’ll try to keep an eye open for him. If he’s listed at 6’1” and 230lbs, I wonder what the combine will say? My guess is less, but by how much?

The people across the street quietly put an Indiana flag in the ground this year. He’s an engineer and has done some really impressive work (like the ATL runway that goes over I-75/85), so I’m guessing that was him. He may have even been a catcher there, because he was a catcher somewhere and he can barely walk now, with knee replacements in his future. He scares me to death just taking the trash cans in!

There was talk that he’s Temaine’s younger brother, but I do not think that was accurate.

And you know this how, exactly?

At least the traffic cones are orange, so you kinda know they are there. Brees has yet to show me an interesting moment.

Hancock was a pleasant surprise and I was worried about Hairston after very limited camp experience. Reports were that Max was not exactly tearing it up in his first 6 days of practice, but he sure looks like a player now! The new generation of DB’s seem to be taking hold.

I think it was more than one good game. He has consistently been improving for a while. I’m sure there will be dips as well, but it’s a beautiful thing to see what he can be. I think he’s been heading upward for a while. .

He’s going to shrink? 😱 (Sanders was 5’8” fyi)

They found a new way to disappoint us yet still make money? Shocking, I tell you! I’ll pass, thank you. They overestimate my interest.

If Cole keeps playing anything like this, it’s a bit of redemption for Beane for choosing him and McD for coaching him up in a way that didn’t ruin him by throwing him into the fire too soon. This might be one of the biggest turnarounds I can remember, because it was painful to watch him early. Good for you Cole, for being dedicated to improvement. THIS is what they saw in him.

Date Only Title.

I saw a bit of that, and I actually enjoyed it. I used to take our boys to Chapel Hill for hoops camp each summer and became attached to the school and the town. I was surprised to enjoy it, but then I had no expectation of knowing the players from either team. Sadly, I don’t think I could name a single player from my team (Xavier). I don’t begrudge the players getting paid or having mobility, but the resulting product is not something I really care for. Gone are the days of being proud that you graduated all your players whose eligibility expired. Now you just want to know who’s on the team, and I’m mildly curious if the SG makes more than the PF. It’s like a new pickup game at the YMCA with the best players going to the highest bidders. It doesn’t bother me in college football, so maybe college basketball in general will still appeal to me. I did enjoy the UNC game. But I will no longer send my school any money if that’s how it’s being used. If we all think alike and that means the program dies, oh well….. 🤷‍♂️ EDIT: I stopped making an annual trip to Cincinnati to see Xavier play when Covid hit, and the way things have changed since then I’ll only catch a game if I happen to be in town already, which is fairly unlikely. .
