week 15

If the Bills drafted backwards, taking their last pick first, their second last second, and so on …. Beane would be considered draft day wizard.

The only thing better than catching the ball when you (and everyone else) is covered, is catching the ball when you’ve made yourself uncovered. Cook isn’t doing what he was drafted to do, either, which was to play situationally as a pass receiving back out of the backfield. Allen was drafted to be a franchise quarterbAck and he’s entered the conversation as among the best to play his position. I’m none too happy with Hawes, who was drafted to be a blocking tight end. Don’t even get me started on Brown, Benford and Bernard.

Ha! I just finished editing my post to capture this.

Well, I will consider this thread developmental for you. I addressed two of the three absurdities you wrongly attributed to Kirk earlier in this thread and you’ve dropped them from your diatribe. Progress. You've retained the “black women do not have ….” absurdity and added quotation marks. This makes me happy. Using quotations means you’re aware of the original material. Can you point me to it? I ask a second time. Now, I don’t expect an answer. You have no answer. What you have is a willingness to say flap doodle with the utmost of confidence. We all encounter people so constituted from time to time. It’s always annoying. When it’s done relative to an assassination, of both a man and his character, it’s also despicable. What I’m noticing in the wake of Kirk’s murder is that there’s a large number of people unencumbered by reason, grace and honesty, especially when they see an opportunity to anonymously inflame on the web. The number is larger than I thought. Hundreds of years from now, anthropologists will describe the birth of the internet and point to its role as a Petri dish nourishing and nurturing the dumb and evil among us. Tell me, loud and proud friend, the source of your quotation. If you do, I’ll fundamentally change my view of Kirk. Until you do, I’ll continue to believe your posts tell us everything we need to know about brain power, but not the brain power you’re referencing. Edit to add: I found the original material. Kirk, referring to certain specific black women, called them DEI hires who took jobs from white women who were smarter. This is what affirmative action and DEI do, where smarts are an element of selection, support it or not. One of the women, later in the clip, then calls herself an affirmative action beneficiary, confirming Kirk in her own words. He didn’t say what you quoted. He said nothing about black women as a class. No sentient person could conclude he said what you quoted. Kirk’s crime? He used words close to one another that someone could re-arrange in a way, modify in a way, to besmirch his character.

I raised four rabid Bills fans in Tampa. They’re representing in four different cities across the country later today. You’re a good dad getting her involved from Colorado Springs. You’ll share Sundays with her for fifty years! Dads and daughters. Nothing like it on the planet.

The Bills last won their last playoff game in 1965.

Buffalo goal, number 14, Rene Robert. Assists, number 7 Richard Martin and number 24, Billy Hajt. Robert, from Martin and Hajt. Time of the goal, 13:36.

For your consideration. You may want to sample more of the media before describing those who avail themselves of the media.

Unless it’s a political online message board.

I am willing to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you’re reading inaccurate reports of what he said. The benefit goes further to assume you never watched the original videos, or that you weren’t paying close attention. If you watched and didn’t get it, you’re on your own and good luck to you. Kirk never said anything close to two of those things (I’ve watched). I’ve not seen the third, but would bet my left leg against a bologna sandwich he didn’t say that one, either. Kirk asked if you want your pilots selected because they’re black or because they’re excellent. He chose excellent, regardless of race or gender. I do, too. I suspect we all do. In the past year, I had open heart surgery that three doctors attended to. One was a white male, one was a black male and one was a Pakistani woman. I’m grateful to all, as Charlie would have been. Stephen King posted on X that Kirk had advocated for the stoning of gay people. King, however, took Kirk's Biblical reference out of context (his words) and presented it as an endorsement of violence. I’ve watched it. Following immediate backlash, King deleted his post and issued an apology on September 12, 2025. King admitted he was wrong and regretted posting without fact-checking. A google search or visit to King’s X account will clear this up for you. I don’t know the brain power reference. I’m happy to let you point me to it. In conclusion, none of us knows everything anyone else ever said. That should be enough to discourage all of us from saying sh***y things about people before we’ve made sure we’re correct. Gorillas flinging poo in a cage aren’t dangerous. That is, until others decide to join in.

Irony is a wonderful rhetorical device, when intended. it’s quite a different thing when unintended. Charlie did love the good, the bad and the ugly. He loved the “cheating sexually assaulting traitor” you reference. That’s who he was. You just demonstrated, unintentionally, the admirable essence of the man. Loving sinners is a fundamental characteristic of Christianity, aspirational or not, person to person. You also just demonstrated, again unintentionally, that Kirk practiced what he preached. Now, I am unburdened by the desire to sh** on people when they’re dead or mourning. I don’t know you from Adam, but you may want to give your two subjects, Kirk and Christianity, a few hours of quiet reflection.

I agree, completely. Far too often posters offer opinions without having looked through the thread to see if the opinion’s already in play. A site’s value is diminished when it becomes a series of entries each essentially representing the same point of view expressed by different people. I try to make sure my words add value and aren’t merely echoes of those written previously by others and I’ll thumb’s up a poster for affirmation. My grandma taught me that if I didn’t have something new to say, sit silently. In any event, grateful for Scott and team.

I was unaware of the word “yeet.”. I dig it.

By the way … I don’t need to see Tyler Bass ever again.
