Any Playboy magazine collectors past or present?
Augie replied to Another Fan's topic in Off the Wall
I got my working papers when I was 14 in NYS, and many of my high school summers were spent coming and going from trailers covered with the fold outs while I did landscaping and maintenance. Did I mention I was a 14 year old boy? -
Stephen Ross Turned Down $10 BILLION For the Dolphins
Augie replied to H2o's topic in The Stadium Wall
My wife is in wealth management and it’s very common for someone to think they have “made it” when they sold their business for hundreds of millions of dollars. It’s also very common for many of them to wake up and wonder why they sold their baby. It was their purpose in life. You can only golf so much. If you are happy where you are, no need to be making major changes. At least, that’s the way I see it. -
Did he say Keon is going to work out just fine? That’s what I keep coming here to hear. It’s okay if you’re lying to me, I just want to hear he’s the right choice. I don’t know what to think. I hear he’s slow and he looks slow, but he’s one of the fastest. I hear he runs lousy routes, but people like Chris Simms say he’s a great route runner. Maybe he’s seeing something I’m not. I freely admit I never played QB in the NFL. So, we wait and wait to see some football.

He played on the Michigan State basketball team. That is no joke level basketball under Tom Izzo. EDIT: looks like he only played 6 games before redshirting. But still, that is serious basketball. .
-
I wonder how many people have spoken, but they were on “Ignore”. Is this a tree falling in the woods type of situation? 🤷♂️ .
-
He’s also got the best winning percentage in Bills history, but sure, let’s fire him. He’s certainly not perfect, but I’d like to think that like everyone else he can get even better at what he does. Get us over the hump ONE time to eliminate the “he can never do it” argument.

The Vikings allegedly tried hard to trade up to #3
Augie replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall
I have no idea if you are correct, but since we have the Vike’s 2nd round pick next year I hope he has a remarkably miserable rookie season. -
You hit the Daily Double!!! .
-
Was that in a previous life? Or did you have a “procedure”? 😋
-
I know I am FAR more curious and optimistic about this 5th round pick than I should be. But I just can’t help myself! Twitchy and bendy has not really been our thing lately.
-
Fair enough. You be you.
-
Am I the only one who thinks the derogatory name calling is childish? EDIT: It was not meant just for you, @drummernut74, it’s pretty common. I wasn’t trying to single you out, but sorry if it felt that way.

Jacksonville releases Zay Jones. Homecoming?
Augie replied to Roundybout's topic in The Stadium Wall
So, you’re thinking he should run around with his junk out at a Four Seasons or a Ritz? 🤷♂️ -
Oratorical traditions sometimes make people flinch. We should allow some grace.
-
Pong led to PAC Man led to Galaga, our favorite by far on date night. I still want one in the basement, and then I remind myself of how rarely anyone goes in the basement.
-
Well……cat people. 🤷♂️

Jacksonville releases Zay Jones. Homecoming?
Augie replied to Roundybout's topic in The Stadium Wall
More important than football, it seems he’s gotten his life together, or so it seems. He never lost talent, and I’m glad he could figure it out to set up a nice life going forward if wise. -
Fair point, but he’s played a lot of Big Time Football, so I’d guess he’ll be “ready” earlier than a lot of other guys with different backgrounds. I look forward to seeing all these new guys. This could be a draft to remember! 😋 …….or why we drink. 🤷♂️
-
Fair point. It was MUCH better last year which was the result of a better OL and more speed at RB. What a great feeling that is. LOOK AT HIM GO!!!
-
I suppose it’s possible. 😋
-
My first thought on the position flexibility issue was how hard can it be to go from center to guard? That should be fairly easy. Learning to be a center is far more difficult.
-
Maybe he didn’t have time for a 3rd entree because he was running late for a reservation at another restaurant? 🤷♂️. That was a GIANT of a man. We have to wait and see. Our Josh was not my first choice based on what little I saw of him in college. Keon was not my first choice, but again they know more than I do. I don’t think there’s a chance that he’s a “bust”, but he may not live up to his draft status. It happens, but I’m eager to see what it looks like. Pleasant surprises are always nice.
-
I hope you run very fast with it, lest you get some serious grief here. 😋

Rd 5, Pick 160: LB Edefuan Ulofoshio, Washington
Augie replied to section122's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yep! Casinos will teach you that in a hurry. We’ll have good competition at LB. What are the odds Beane turns one of those guys into a late round bargaining chip? Yes, speaking of Vegas…… -
Someone earlier mentioned he looked a little like Travis Henry out there. I can’t rule anything out.
