The Chiefs have another gear we were unable to match with a crippled roster. EDIT: We are not alone in struggling vs the Chiefs in the playoffs. We are not some kind of singular failure. .

So, this is going about as expected. It’s tragic. I wish we could give it a bit more time before getting “there”, but I’m not surprised.

Who misses Covid??? 😋

I never admitted to anything, but I got hauled off by the Williamsville Police for shooting BB guns at cans in an open field. Some fat guy in gray clothes was coming down the dirt road yelling “don’t run!” We were kids, so we ran. I learned then that the police radio is much faster than your average 12 year old. That was the night I spent my first (and only, as far as you know) hour in the Big House. 😂

Doing that one remotely might be a wise move. Stay home and burn a couch in the road. .

I’d hate for mental illness to ruin things for all the gun people. I’m trying to lighten up a terrible situation, and get things back on track. Please people, let’s focus a bit.

For every time he blinks when he’s on duty. Guess what his nickname is.

Nyheim Hines recommends golf over jet skis.

Context can be very important at times.

I would have clicked on All Of The Above.

It’s like they got an entire paper mill inside that little creature to concentrate and weaponize him!

It’s an accounting myth, or something like that……. 😋 It does make me wonder what this looks like year over year. Doesn’t Josh kick in to about $47 Mil next year? Did we structure defensive contracts around Josh’s contract. It’s got to be a crazy balancing act with so many contracts to juggle. .

I had my dog at the UB Amherst campus one night and she disappeared briefly. It was very brief, but it was long enough. I never heard a ruckus, but we smelled her long before she got close to us. It was overwhelming! Like, a stink that could knock you over. This was before we had all the world’s knowledge on a phone in our pocket, so we tried everything we could think of. My GF took my car and went for tomato juice, shampoo and anything else that might put a dent in the stench. We gave her a bath in one of the lakes, and all that seemed to happen was now the people smelled like skunk too. If there is anything out there that works, we did not find it that night.

Best wishes for a great success and a quick and full recovery.

I went to a Bills game at Green Bay a few years ago and wore my Bills gear everywhere. I kept hearing “welcome to Wisconsin.” Especially from big young farm boy types. It was curious the first time, but apparently it’s a thing. Pretty cool.

As for general memorabilia beyond autographs, in the man cave I have a couple seat cushions from the Bills/Redskins SB, and a collection of framed Bills program covers from the early 60’s.

I’ve never been into autographs. Nothing against anyone who does it for fun or even investment purposes, but someone else writing their name just isn’t my thing. I have a buddy who is SUPER into it and does backstage access at concerts, essentially paying a FORTUNE for a photo and an autograph. Makes him happy, good for him, but just not my thing. In fact, a tennis buddy is an electrician and helped me out in a time of need. I had a short in the backyard outlet which kept tripping the breaker for the back of the house (knocking out all cable and internet). He followed me home and spent half a day finding and fixing it, then he wouldn’t let me pay him. The next day I took him a tennis racquet he had liked…..I won it at a Bryan Brothers exhibition. It was not only signed by both of them, but they had used that racquet and Wimbledon that year. (Their coach worked at our club.) It was taking up space in my closet, and the incredible joy on his face when I gave it to him was priceless, so I guess they can have enormous value. EDIT: To demonstrate my stupidity I took it to the courts and hit with it. Yes, they really did use blue Tournagrip, and that was where the signatures were. One of my friends shrieked like a little girl that I was going to damage the signatures. I didn’t want that, but I really DID WANT to hit with it. They jacked up the weight something crazy! .

I just checked in to see if “it” has been defined. Does he have to win the SB? Is once enough? Does he have to cover the spread?

Funny, I bought that one and started reading it right around the time we moved. It’s been about 2 years and it hasn’t popped up again. I know it’s here somewhere!

On the bright side, maybe the back issues help him remain somewhat affordable? 🤷‍♂️ We will have the best feel for how he really is physically. I hope he remains healthy, regardless of where he plays. Bad backs (and feet) for big guys can be rough.

Sometimes some of the fans annoy me far more than the Bills ever have.

They took the big swing that many people asked for. Sometimes it backfires.

You went from special to unique. Those are different things. That was on you.

Sometimes I hate this place.

But, Josh hasn’t done it yet, and he’s getting older. How much cap space would we save? We need cap space.
