A civil suit does not have to be either a money grab or a pursuit of justice. It’s not a one or the other construct. Wherever someone lies on the continuum, the presence of wealth makes the pursuit more attractive, more reasonable, when evaluating the cost in terms of time, effort and fees. Many civil actions don’t arise in the absence of wealth because of the cost to the injured party to bring suit.

Classic Marino. A great, great, thrower of the football, regardless of circumstance.

I was there.

Rumblings from the Jets locker room. A few players would like to take three games off for a salary credit.

Well, I’m sixty four, a Type I diabetic, and I just had open heart surgery! That said, your question requires a better framing of my answer. I have four kids, three kid-in-laws, seven grandkids, dozens of cousins and double dozens of friends. For me, it’s this one season. When you’re a patriarch (or old guy), the coming season is THE season. I make a trip to Miami and bring six people to hotels and buy their tickets. I get a year of memories from it. We talk about the last trip for six months and the next trip for six months. Again, no fancy rich guy, but the trip’s $6 thousand, and it’s a regular season game. So, yes, I’d rather the Bills win this year than have someone give me $12 thousand.

Fun topic. However, I think setting the amount at $500 is similar to setting the over/under for a Bills Lions game at 11. That, of course, begs the question of me. What amount would I propose as a difficult choice? My answer is $12 grand. Not because I’m fancy or rich, but because I have dozens of deep personal relationships with friends and family, in Buffalo and elsewhere, where Bills fandom is one of the most powerful mutual bonds. A Super Bowl win would bring months of joy and years of satisfaction.

I believe the Josh Allen and O-line led offense of the Buffalo Bills contributes more to the success of James Cook than James Cook contributes to the success of Josh Allen and O-line of the Buffalo Bills. $11 million; you’re lucky for that; get your a$$ here and play football. He thinks differently? Leave in February and best of luck to you.

When I saw “Diggs’ Drama” I thought this thread would be about the insightful posters who called for the cancer to be released or traded after the 2023 season and the snarky posters rolling their eyes and saying it was unwise or cap impossible.

There’s something to your thought. On an island where they believed they’d be rescued, neither Mary Ann nor Ginger made any headway with Thurston. In short, I think Mrs. Howell must’ve had skills. Same thing with Brady Bunch and Alice. Sam the Butcher personally delivered the meat to the Brady home and hung out with Alice. I think she was a magician in the sheets.

Channel 29! Makes my morning. And Mary Ann, without hesitation.

Hear, hear! Amen. Well said, brother. I am grateful.

I’ll admit to becoming a Bills fan during the Jack Kemp era in War Memorial Stadium.

I can’t read Shaw’s post without thinking of the Hickory Huskers when Jimmy Chitwood says “I’ll play, but Coach Dale stays.”

Went to a Bills Tampa game in September years ago. I know what hell is like.
