The problem with a8 games + 2 byes + 2 preseason games is that season would either need to start before Labor Day which NFL has tried in past and did not like or season would extend even longer which messes up plans on NFL to align playoff games to be during Nielsen ratings period. This also results in another game during unhealthy south summers and another game in potentially very cold north.

Excellent Article on Terrel Bernard from Tim Graham
Saxum replied to MikePJ76's topic in The Stadium Wall
Sounds like an AI article not one by Tim Graham. -
No back injury which in movie Princess Bride could not even support the weight of Buttercup.

Almost every time there is an illness there are pictures from people at parties and bars taking selfies day before he is ill. He is a local boy and has a lot of friends in area.

I have a new visitor to my bird covered sanctuary - a red headed Pileated Woodpecker. My wife showed me a fuzzy picture of a large bird with red heard am grey body with white near neck bigger than the blackbirds which regularly feed there and I researched it and found out it is a red headed Pileated Woodpecker; I could not tell if it was a male or female since picture did not show the face. We have three types of woodpeckers now in our feeding zone with two of other types regular feeders. Now that is getting drier with less rain I have seen more birds here with a robin (who normally only come in my yard when crab apples in season), two types of catbirds, sparrows, chickadees (who I built a home for them), a pair of morning doves who once again built a nest under our gazebo, 2 regular blackbirds and some other blackbirds some grey and occasional blue jay. Saw blackbird stick its head into bowl of water for my dog which birds use for drinking. Unfortunately the long tailed tree rat (that is what Chinese call squirrels) has learned to open suet container and drop it on floor so we looking at moving it under sanctuary cover which we hope squirrel cannot get. Still working on "training birds". The smaller birds will come to my side porch when I am out of bread and they will wait for me to throw bread to them. The pair of regular blackbirds have tried to join the hand feeding line but since there are smaller birds on both sides of area I throw bread I can usually throw it so they can grab it before blackbird can. Some local bees are stating to land on me. Not sure if it has to do with weather, my wife's flowers on side porch or the bird feed but they have not been stinging me so I have been leaving them alone.

Local reports are that he was at bars last night.

Shaquil Barrett signed a 1 year , $7,000,000 contract with the Miami Dolphins, including $5,540,000 signing bonus, $6,750,000 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $7,000,000. I could see him not returning it immediately and then after Phish exhausted cap UN-retiring. It is only a few weeks until season starts.

And what if you are inactive or injured week teams plays in California? It may be worth it to have a tax laywer argue that since you were not IN that state you owe no taxe$.

He went back to play for Bucs and then sign $9 Million free agent contract with Phish so it is still odd he retired now. His wife had birth of daughter Allanah in February so it is not something which immediately came to mind after birth of latest child. He was released in May from Bucs and he may just be not feeling drive after bring in practices and dealing with Phish staff.

Agree on Outshine. Fortunately BJ has seemed to have a lot of sales in summer.

I hope he does not end up like Andre the Giant.

New York Jets at Buffalo Bills - November 24th, 1996 - Bills 35, Jest 10 Jim Kelly once said that no one could cover Steve Tasker as a wide receiver and he proved it that day. Steve Tasker had the most productive offensive game of his career as a Wide Receiver as he racked up 160 yards on 6 catches with 2 touchdowns vs. NJ Jets. His 160 yards receiving vs. Jets was 8 more yards than he recorded in his first 10 seasons in the league. Unfortunately his kamikaze catches made him a target for the Jets' back-field and he injured his knee in the game.

I do not think so. I used to watch Due South regularly and not once did Constable Benton Fraser once admonish anyone for watching CFL.

That is because every time a new technology occurs other technologies increase requires. Windows 10 is having support eliminated and Windows 11 is requiring much much more resources and you generally have to buy a new machine. Really screws people who paid for high end laptops.

I went to get some blood work done and there was a sign up that there may be delays due to Global Microsoft IT problem. This will probably end up like 911 and COVID-19 being blamed for many things including prices which go directly into profits. It should only be issue for companies which use that particular firm's resources.

I used to go to 2-3 games a year including opener and occasional away game but most of time with friends with most of the games not on local TV at Jimmy's Old Town Tavern my Bills Bar. I'd occasionally go to pre-season games when I'd take my daughter and some friends' children but they are adults now and not interested. Bills stopped giving Bills Backers groups group ticket deals (although some other teams do and they contact me) and have not been to a Bills home game since 2010. Flying up is less an option now since tickets from Baltimore to Buffalo usually cost more than tickets to California. The whole electronic cell phone ticket bothers me especially with teams restricting bags - cell coverage can be spotty and I am sure a number of cell phones are stolen each year at stadium. Now with medical issues I have not been to a live game since 2010. My wife is too worried about me driving long distances solo and not interested in sitting alone. I drive solo to Jimmy's occasionally now and sometimes I watch with a friend at Bills bar near his house. I still have days when I cannot handle driving solo to Jimmy's so when game is not on local TV or NFL Network I listen to it on radio and many games are replayed on NFL Network . I prefer going to games live when I can go with friends but have not been to a game since medical issues started so that is more of memory of a preference than a preference.

It is not so simple since it depends on schedule team plays what states they are playing away games and do overseas teams also require income tax payments? It is not just players who are affected by this - the staff who goes to games also need to pay and as well as most of the coaches, trainers and assistants also need to pay income tax when state charges it.

I have no desire to communicate. After first one who tried to flood my phone and second which threatened a Jihad on me a third one texts who claims to be owner wants to talk about the "problem". So it is okay for his people to threaten me and then expect me to talk? Another person blocked if not same person.

If Star Trek has a follow up to Voyager episode "False Profits" you would be perfect candidate to be a new sage.

Who is your Mount Rushmore of NON Bills players you hated the most?

Ray Carruth and Ray Lewis should be roommates. -
It is interesting for Bills and Steelers are having joint practice in August but would be more interesting IMO if Bills had hosted practice.
