We have a neighbor who is a well known architect. He was at our place helping us and noticed all the Bills stuff in the basement. He said his wife was going for a beach trip with her friends, but he’s not a big beach lover. Instead he was going to Buffalo for a tour of WNY architecture. This guy could go anywhere and do anything, and this was a dream trip for him. The next day he sends me a pic of wings and beer from WNY. I remind him he’s got to try the pizza, and 30 seconds later I get the pic of his pizza. His architecture tour turned into a food and architecture tour. If you live there it’s easy to take for granted.

It might be 10-15 years ago now, but an old friend drove me from a game back to my hotel and he took me by the old Rockpile entrance. It was just the gates, but they made such an impression on me as a kid it was emotional to see them again.

I think you are shopping in the wrong shoe section.

I like the new car and country club comparisons. I decided to pay because it’s worth it to me. I think that’s pretty simple. Country clubs can be even more expensive than PSL’s and you can’t always just walk away. You might have to be paying dues indefinitely until someone will buy it, which brings me back around to timeshares, but that’s another topic.

It didn’t say the best PLAYER who wore #14. Best can be interpreted many ways, and I went with The Beard/Furry Man. Him with his shirt off in the frozen stadium with his son was classic! .

Barely any difference between rounds 2 and 3 is interesting. If only we had……n/m

….do I dare????? EDIT: “not uncommon”, they say. Who are “they” hanging around with??? 😂

I’m certainly not arguing, but hold your thumb and forefinger 2.25” apart and imagine how that makes such a huge difference. I know it’s a real thing, but when I look at it that way it’s kind of amazing.

Brady used to piss me off when he’d start a game with 11 straight completions to 8 different guys.

I never doubted her, that’s for sure. I have been pretty clear about that.

Somewhere, probably in this thread, there is a clip with Mark Schlereth giving J Bettis credit for something like “if everywhere you go, it smells like S%$t, maybe it’s you.” He liked the Bills being rid of him, so of course we love Schlereth today. 😋 I think he actually liked the Texans only having one year of him to make him try, but that makes it a fairly rich price (a top 50 pick?) for a WR for one year. .

For a week or two this time of year, for about an hour…….I feel like I’m staring at an eclipse if I sit in “my spot”. That time is NOW. I bet used glasses could be had cheap. It’s the internet, that’s what we are supposed to do, right?

I’m guessing your Magic 8 Ball is broken, too?

I always thought the “next year’s pick” was overly discounted by some and applies mostly when you have a regime who is less secure in their standing so they need to win now. I like future picks if you get them discounted. I mean, you end up using them!

On the positive side, I have yet to see him wearing a little sailor cap. 🤷‍♂️

For someone who is not at all emotional about this, you are quite persistent.

That’s terrible timing for him, and you have to hope that is a very isolated incident. It’s always dumb, but right now??? EDIT: I worked with a guy who went to UGA and went back to Athens, GA to be in his buddies wedding. The groom got a DUI going 2-3 blocks from the reception to the hotel. That would be another example of bad timing! .

He took his dog with him, right?

You could photo shop me in? 🤷‍♂️

The priest from CaddyShack says it depends upon how your round is going. 😋

I have no plans being in Atlanta, but it was pretty darn cool when it came closer to us a few years ago. I didn’t do anything special then, other than meet up with most of my neighbors in the road. It was like a block party! VERY cool. My sister used to date a lifeguard who had scuba gear. He’d sneak into the ponds on the nice courses and scavenge for balls to resell. He said he liked the country clubs because nobody was splashing range balls into the ponds. 😂

Has anyone thought of what would have happened if he failed his physical or something and was returned to sender??? 😂 😂 😂

I don’t love it, but you have the right to say no and move along. That sounds better than wallowing in despair over the topic. We knew it would be “more”, so make a decision and move on is how I would look at it.

That does not fit the desired narrative. We SUCK! Get used to it! 😋

If Von doesn’t tear his ACL, we might have a very different perspective. They took a VERY big swing, and it didn’t work out due to injury.
