I did not know that, so it’s worth repeating. For better or worse, I have spoken with people from this board I’ve never met, and they needed something better than me in the wee hours of the morning. If you think you might need help, that might get you pointed in the right direction. .

Yes, we are currently big fans, and we’d like a free one week trial. Next week? Not so sure yet. We’ll have to wait and see. 🤷♂️ It’s a combination of good coaching and more investment in the OLine. It takes both, but we have both. Now they are working on the other side of the line, and the offseason investment does not feel like what we’ve done in the past. They want to win the LOS on both sides of the ball. Win the LOS and have a good QB and you can go a long way. .

I certainly hope not. He’s a guy who is really good at playing football. He also seems to be a really good person, but that’s nothing to be star struck over. If he’s at a table at a restaurant, I would hope people would just leave him alone. I’d be disappointed there, of course. Being rich is the good part of being rich and famous. We’ve known some famous people, and going out in public becomes a problem.

There is a lot more to football than a box score. BTW, I caught one of those cheap Voit footballs from our former NFL punter/Gym teacher in middle school and got a bone bruise on the base of my left thumb. The pain when you bumped that thing could have made me pass out, and it lasted forever. A retired pediatric neuroradiologist once told me on a scale of 1-10, a bone bruise is like a 5, and a break starts about a 6. It’s a very real and very painful thing.

Oh goodness! My wife finally found a hat to fit my giant noggin at the Bills store for the opener, but I never…..looked….beneath. Ya know? I know exactly where the hat is. Why does it feel creepy to go look?

Please don’t speak for me. And I doubt I’m alone. I always care about the Bills, and I always will as long as I’m alive and they are in WNY. But I am caring less about the NFL as a whole over time. I’m not stomping my feet and having a rant, it just gets a smaller piece of my pie chart each year. It’s not emotional, it’s very simple.

We spent almost a week driving around WNY recently, and I never once put on WGR radio. I’m not sure if it was because I didn’t want to hear it, or if I was a little curious but wouldn’t do it because I was afraid my wife would think less of all of us.

It really would be hysterical, because there is such an enormous gray area, and literally countless options. I’d especially enjoy the league’s reaction as gamblers started getting angry. I didn’t used to understand Booing Goodell at the Draft……until the last few years. I’d like to see him talk his way out of another mess.

Hey old guys, I want some advice (colonoscopy)...

This is the last, and I mean the very last, place anyone should say pics or it didn’t happen. Good for you on the results. . -
Maybe the logo is standard size, but it’s a hat for people with really small heads? 🤷♂️

The League's Top Ten Coaches All Ought to be Fired
Augie replied to hondo in seattle's topic in The Stadium Wall
Jack Kemp’s wife was Judy, I think, and his son was Jeff. I think he had a J sister or two as well. That could be off, just an odd recollection. Bonus Trivia: Which NFL QB missed 3 games because he broke his hand punching Jim Kelly in the head? AI Overview In 1997, while quarterbacking for the Indianapolis Colts, Jim Harbaugh punched former Buffalo Bills quarterback Jim Kelly, fracturing a bone in Harbaugh's own throwing hand. The incident occurred after Kelly publicly questioned Harbaugh's toughness, leading Harbaugh to confront Kelly at an NBC production meeting. The fight resulted in a broken hand for Harbaugh, costing him the Colts' next three games and three paychecks. Harbaugh later expressed regret for throwing the punch but said he acted to defend his toughness. -
Well, the Jets travel to Orchard Park every year, so it IS possible for them to gain entry into our fair state. They say we live in “upstate NY”, but we are really in Western NY. They are the New York Jets, playing in New Jersey. I have a Canadian friend who is much better at US Geography (and history, fwiw) than the Jets or the Giants, apparently.

That’s why they play the games, and also why the circus still travels the country to entertain the masses.

Augie replied to hondo in seattle's topic in The Stadium Wall
That sounds like one of us. Just sayin’. Actually, I was hoping we could follow in the footsteps of the immortal Barry Switzer, as long as we are going with the Flukey History category. -
I’m afraid I misread the title. Never mind.

McDermott on very interesting NFL Films video on goal line fades
Augie replied to Roundybout's topic in The Stadium Wall
I can see it in the huddle now: “Broken play on three!” I’m sure the fade is generally a bad choice for most teams, and a worse choice if you have Josh Allen at QB. Give something good a fair chance to happen. -
Start of the season really could not have gone better for the Bills…
Augie replied to eball's topic in The Stadium Wall
Here’s the deal, if you are not negative enough, you quickly get labeled as a Homer who will not tolerate any criticism whatsoever. You and I both know that is not true, but the label is quick to be applied when challenged by the handful of Negative Nancys here. We have a very good team. We should have more positive than negative to discuss. I have no problem with anyone pointing out mistakes or questionable moves. crap happens in life, it’s not personal. We are here to discuss the Bills, for better or worse. If the negativity and complaining seems to be all ya got, however, that is tiresome and often childish. I don’t see why more balance is so elusive here. -
So you’d think, but if he hasn’t clipped his nails he could scratch a cornea or something! 😳
-
If he gets fined for that, it’s just one more reason for my interest in the NFL to continue to lessen.

I finally gave in and started using the ignore feature where needed. My life has improved as a result. -
Money isn’t everything, but it’s certainly something. Maybe we should limit responses here to those from people making $5 Mil per year and up. Nobody is perfect, but he’s smarter than most of the rest regarding football matters. He is elite and is at the pinnacle of his profession. How many of you can say that? .

Read what I wrote again. That was an honest take. Don’t try to convolute things. -

Of course not. I’m just pointing out how the whole ring counting thing can be misused.
