  1. Think he made a mistake retiring like that with no plans. in 2023 he was arrested for drunk driving. Some do not deal with retirement well. At first professional job I had an employee retired after 30 years bur his car was spotted after hours in parking lot. He was later found in one of the lesser used stairwells and evidently his heart failed bur he had no reported medical issues. https://www.si.com/nfl/bills/news/buffalo-bills-vontae-davis-arrested-dui-police-indianapolis-colts-miami-dolphins-retired-at-halftime https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/nfl/article-13260575/Footage-Vontae-Davis-story-retired-HALFTIME-dead-Bills.html
  2. "Fleeing Buffalo Politics Bills" would be better name. What a waste of taxpayer money.
  3. Reminds me of the Auction a Nurse for weekend pass to Tokyo on M*A*S*H - rigged. IF they are doing it I'd be surprised they do not auction it off to highest bidder.
  4. I have never watched a full college game and never went to games when I went to UB.
  5. Ex-Lions DB Cam Sutton turns himself in on strangulation charge https://www.clickondetroit.com/news/2024/04/01/ex-lions-db-cam-sutton-turns-himself-in-on-strangulation-charge/ Cam Sutton arrest update: Ex-Lions CB turns himself in on domestic battery, weeks after being on run https://www.sportskeeda.com/nfl/news-cam-sutton-arrest-update-ex-lions-cb-turns-domestic-battery-weeks-run Latest on Cam Sutton: Lions release CB over disturbing domestic battery allegations with NFL player on the run Lions will take a tremendous dead cap on him.
  6. Neilson numbers may be more important to keep broadcasters continuing to show games. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/ufl-attendance-gets-off-to-so-so-start UFL attendance gets off to so-so start (NBC is not broadcasting partner so do not expect soft treatment) UFL’s debut had so-so attendance, to no surprise. Via Mike Mitchell of SI.com, the opening game between the Birmingham Stallions and the Arlington Renegade attracted 14,153 fans. The second game, featuring the Michigan Panthers hosting the St. Louis Battlehawks, drew 9,444 to Ford Field. NFL analyst points out reasons for "so-so" attendance at UFL season opener https://www.sportskeeda.com/nfl/news-nfl-analyst-points-reasons-so-so-attendance-ufl-season-opener The official attendance figure for the UFL’s opening game at Choctaw Stadium between the @USFLStallions and @XFLRenegades is 14,153.
  7. Any official and unofficial attendance figures? I am expecting XFL to cite ticket sales but many may not be used as has happened in past in alternate leagues. Cameras by broadcasters appeared to avoid showing sections of stadiums with few fans but I only saw FOX since I do not pay for ESPN.
  8. I was amazed on number of older vets. I was expecting players who could not stick to regular roster trying to do what Kurt Warner did - use alternate leagues to increase his skill set - but not players in 30s.
  9. Some of the shows at amusement parks we went to as kids. The one on Grand Island Fantasy Island (loved the mouse) and Crystal Beach.
  10. I wonder if NFL allows for steel toed sneakers - ball can be pretty hard in winter.
  11. In college I was in literature class and research had indicated it was a composite of multiple people and he had frequent jabs at non-contributing wealthy.
  12. Make it about money like current NFL - let all players be able to be auctioned to highest bidder. Then players will be more accurate it at calling it a slave auction.
  13. Ebenezer Scrooge was based on real people at the time but he changed which was and is rare.
  14. Some of it MAY be opposition to VA governor support since he has been in constant conflict with large portion of Northern Virginia but not hear anything other than locals being very unhappy on impact on traffic. Every time a project developers proclaims metro will be handling excess traffic but it rarely does. Metro is always complaining about lack of funding and I used to agree with them until they decided to go electronic pass or you cannot use. It does no good for taxpayers required to have to have an electronic card to use bus and then say bus needs. People use buses for unexacted reasons like forgot wallet, wallet locked in car, car failure, etc. where in other case they could just bottom a few dollar bills and get home or where they need to go and return later. They also invalidated paper stored value cards and if you did not convert them into electronic cards money irretrievable - meaning they got free money.
  15. And most people from Northern Ireland consider themselves Irish. Title of article was: Saints sign Northern Ireland goalkeeper Charlie Smyth to potentially compete for starting kicking job My wife id from Hong Kong and considers herself Chinese despite being born under British control and US citizen now LONGER than she lived in Hong Kong.
  16. Ebenezer Scrooge was a very rich man and way he did it was making sure he paid as little as possible. He also did it after Hartford backed out and his partners did as well. He recovered the money in costs of suites which is a lot easier to sell in Boston.
  17. Ticket agencies appear to - they factor in cost of paying for PSLs into ticket price and then charge markup.
  18. Career history Los Angeles Rams (2018)* Birmingham Iron (2019) Philadelphia Eagles (2019)* Detroit Lions (2019)* Los Angeles Wildcats (2020)* New York Guardians (2020) New Jersey Generals (2022) Los Angeles Rams (2022)* Vegas Vipers (2023) Arlington Renegades (2023–present) * Offseason and/or practice squad member only Roster status: Active He has been but has never stick. He may have another chance after Renegades season is over.
  19. And I am sure he will repay you if you lose money since it is easy.
  20. There certainly are but he is not. He played in Polynesian bowl which which is high school bowl game for seniors with Polynesian ancestry however.
  21. Some comedians need laugh tracks to tell audience it is funny.
  22. NFL will create multiple shell companies which will own each game with different prices to emulate competition. They better sign an expert available who understands NFL and is expert at lying. I wonder who is available.
