I think he could make a fine #1 Diva. Seriously, how did he think this was going to work out for him?

It’s like whack-a-mole. I want better WR’s too, but I want to find a middle ground between where we are and where the Dolphins are. Invest TOO MUCH at WR, and you get exposed in other areas where your resources did not go. When we improve at WR, and I believe it will be a serious priority before next season, people will complain that we let this guy or that guy go, or we have no depth at some other position. We can’t have it all.

People can always find something to complain about. We could use more of this or that, a true #1 WR, better depth everywhere, etc. The problem is, every team wishes they had more cap space and more draft picks, including Beane and the Bills. Nobody has a perfect batting record, including Beane and the Bills, but they are doing much better than most. .

That is true, to a degree. I’ve been drifting into the gray area. I pretty much only watch the Bills now. I used to be an NFL fan, but they’ve pissed me off enough that I mostly just follow the Bills.

If that is accurate, they are one big step closer to my saying goodbye to the NFL.

It’s like Monopoly or Risk, except it actually does never end!

It’s always a pleasant surprise when a fresh idea pops up. This was not that.

My wife used to work with a couple guys who started riding the narrow, windy, hilly streets of Buckhead together. I said that was great, now when they wreck they have someone to call the ambulance for them. Sure enough, just a couple months later one of them flew over the handle bars breaking his collarbone and knocking his front teeth out. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve come around a narrow bend in the road and almost soiled my seat because there was a biker with a death wish in the road.

I will say, Covid threw the schedule off. I’m not sure how long they were closed, or how far behind I got on cleanings and checkups, but it was substantial. Of course, my wife started going back long before I did. She pays for an extra visit every year. (I swear she’s otherwise pretty normal.)

My dentist as a kid in Hamburg did not believe in novocaine or numbing to do any work, he would just put headphones on us. Needless to say, I don’t need to hear what he’s doing to know it hurts. My two sisters and I were all traumatized, but this clown was a friend of my parents. As a result of my serious aversion/phobia, I allowed myself to get behind the eight ball in terms of dental work. Fast forward to young adulthood, and I married a dentist’s daughter. She would assist him on evening and weekend emergencies. She insisted that she could hold a mirror and watch Dad extract her wisdom teeth. She often says she loves working with her hands (quite true) and she should have taken over her dad’s practice. We would not seem compatible on the surface in terms of how we viewed dentists. She wanted to be one, I wanted to shoot them all. I still despise going, but I stay on my routine and avoid letting anything getting worse than it has to.

Don’t tell anyone because it’s supposed to be a surprise, but he’s going to put a roof over ALL of our heads with a dome getting added to the new stadium at the last minute. He just wants to give something back to the fans. At least, that’s what I heard. Not much left to pay the city and county taxes with. It could get tight!

I think that’s probably the GI Docs when they want a bigger boat.

Well, it’s nice to know Von is making a contribution this week. Ugh…. I’ll not going, but thanks for being all over that with good info.

Resources spent in season are usually for desperate reasons, and you pay a premium. I look forward to seeing how it looks going forward, and I want to be smart in the big picture.

….and if that’s NOT the case, I’m fine with sitting pat for this season and making a #1 WR a high priority next year when we have more cap space and draft capital. .

…for the right player for the right acquisition cost on the right contract given the age.

Congratulations on the mailbox!

I hope it’s much better than the one in Kennesaw, GA. I went twice in their first year (not right after the open) and it was sad both times. I’ll give it one more try now that another couple years have gone by. They benefit from the giant ass college campus nearby.

Pride of homeownership. I like it!

It’s best to do those in alphabetical order. Just trying to help.

That just looks like a bad scrabble hand to me. 🤷‍♂️

Someone needs to cover for the rear retreat. That’s a rule since the days of Jack Kemp. EDIT: I’m apparently getting very old. .

I don’t even know what you’re talking about. The timing of the announcement and enforcement is always a mystery to me. .

HOW long it takes is more curious to me than FOR HOW LONG. 🤷‍♂️

Oddly, I noticed that that has been on a LOT in the past couple weeks. RIP
