Obama, a recess appointment?
Maybe.
This guy suggests not. http://www.scotusblog.com/2016/02/is-a-recess-appointment-to-the-court-an-option/

I don't see Obama or Hillary on SCOTUS.
They have very little courtroom experience. If you're on the SCOTUS bench, you need court room litigation experience, lots of it, to be qualified. You also should be a published scholar.
They are patently unqualified. I don't think either of them would accept a nomination because then their legal experience will be publicly scrutinized with a fine tooth comb, it portends to be an embarrassment for them. I don't think they want to go through that.
Hillary had suggested Obama for SCOTUS, I think that was a ploy to curry his favor so maybe he'll scuttle an indictment of her DoS activities.

except when he was caught cheating on his wife
I estimate the cheating to which he admitted was 2005-ish.
Jim and Jill Kelly have made it clear that behavior is behind them and their marriage is stronger. Like I said, he improved with age.
-
.... It's time to really start developing guys.....
You know it.
The Bills couldn't develop talent, primarily because they didn't have key prerequisites: stability at the starter position, and stability in the coaching staff.
I think the Bills are getting some stability and and are well positioned to pick a late round QB and develop him for a few years--like Baltimore did.
-
It isn't pretty. Young guys act like tools and sometimes they grow up and act classy and I'm ok with moving on.
......
Yep.
Let's not throw rocks from our glass house. Jim Kelly is exhibit A as someone who improved his person with age.
The media rage machine continues it's grind.

I'm to the right of center, on the cusp of moderate and conservative.
Two liberal friends burned a bridge. They were celebrating Scalia's passing on FB.
Without saying anything political, I said I thought it was wrong to celebrate someone's death. They went ape ****.
This is one !@#$ed up world.
RIP Justice Scalia.

Left, right, doesn't matter.
In a couple years we'll look like Greece: a complete mess.

We should trade Taylor for RGIII.
Then we should trade RGIII for Taylor and Kirk Cousins. Because getting a first rounder for a fourth and a sixth? Dan Snyder would never pass up that deal.
Sounds like that could be a Barter Kings episode on A&E.
-
He's gonna try to rejuvenate his career somewhere...why not Buffalo?
There are other teams worse off at QB than Buffalo (hard to believe, but there are). They would give RG3 a large multi-year contract that the Bills would choose not to meet.
-
WGR is quoting ESPN saying Buffalo is Number 1 likely landing place for RG3.
http://www.wgr550.com/ESPN-lists-Bills-as-top-landing-spot-for-RG3/22465542
I don't see it myself.

Also a winning point. Use of a sword to open a bottle in a crowded nightclub would be...challenging though.
Though I'd like to see it tried.
EDIT: I have always found TBD educational. It turns out there's a name for this, Sabrage, and a special sword.
-
The way I heard it, batteries were being thrown during the fight and that means Shady and the gang were in danger. Thus they looked for a boat to escape and found one. Used the champagne bottle to get the exit from the club started on the boat. Last time I remember being from Buffalo- fight- it ends- and everybody leaves. End of story. Sure some broken bones and stuff but "Suck It Up". Just my take on the whole thing. A bunch of babys.
Huh? Every Ready's or Duracell?
Please pardon this old man. In my silver years, I stay home home after dark.

Now that's a big shock <===== sarcasm
We've already seen. The case may or may not be cut and dried, but warrants are still not issued. Ergo conclusions based upon quickness of warrant issuance (which has not yet occurred) not valid.
Why is this so difficult for you to acknowledge?
I respectfully request you explain the sarcasm.
Is it:
1. You believe the off duty officers have some special unwritten ticket to do what they want...
or
2. That the off-duty officers won't face charges, because they were on their backs on the floor getting their ass kicked resulting in fractured skulls
Sarcasm.. it's hard to read.
-
The Buffalo News article regarding McCoy is 100% spot on.
Well.. yes, in the respect that maybe it's time to cut ways.
But, I didn't like the sanctimonious meme where the Bills were criticized for trading to get Shady.
As my father taught me: hindsight is always 20/20. A sportswriter playing the hindsight game gets my down vote.
-
I just heard of Spence's demise
Suggestion: open this Youtube in one of your browser tabs (my favorite part is at 34:27). Then go read the rest of your Bills news in another tab.
Spence was the Joe Montana (and Jim Kelly) of music composition.
Then fill in the blanks below:
Tom Brady is the ____________ of music composition.
QB ________ is football's Milli Vanilli.
-
Really.. page 45?
I haven't seen this much excitement since funnels at Main and Amherst st.
What the heck was the name of that bar?
-
Breaking: McCoy has hired Jackie Chiles.

From a criminal law point of view:
- if Shady has past problems with the law--this event is going to leave a mark
- if his record is fairly clean, he might come away here not to damaged
From a civil law point of view--Shady has big problems here. Especially with the guy reported to have a skull fracture.
-
Fricken 19 pages of 70% stupidity at this point.
Idiot posters making a big stink about "police officers." Dudes... wake up. They were off-duty in civilian attire. Being a police officer or not a police officer has no impact in this bar brawl. Police haters need an adjusted perspective.
What does have impact: reports of broken skulls. Whomever broke these persons skulls is in some serious **** (doesn't matter if the vics were police or not)
-
hmmm I have Firefly... Will try that if we run out haha
Tito's only comes plain. You'll have add the sweet tea.
-
Sweet tea vodka
If you haven't tried Tito's vodka yet, give it a shot. It is outstanding, and is well priced.
-
I have said previously that they should draft a QB in rounds 5 to 7. But I'm rethinking that.
I have read a few articles that had the general message: there are many teams in bad QB straits and they will overvalue QB's (eg. pick a QB higher round than really deserved ).
I don't want the Bills to overpay for a QB. There will be some workable training camp arms in the UDFA ranks, and maybe a surprise.
-
If the situation was reversed, and this guy was rebuffing giant offers from the NFL, like "Man refuses to release sole copy of first Super Bowl, NFL offers millions" I would think the guy was being a jerk, and I would be pissed, because I really want to see the game.
Superbowl I is available, not in broadcast format, but assembled from NFL films side line camera footage. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000620927/article/nfl-network-to-reair-super-bowl-i-for-first-time
And that's the entire Superbowl. Not a broadcast missing footage.
The NC dude should have taken the 30K check and walked.

And this is the perfect example of a situation where the league could proactively step in and provide support and stability to help a player/former player. It wouldn't take much, and would be great PR at the price.
But will they? Of course not.
As HR staff (recovering), I've dealt with Manziel types in the past, including trying to save them. 9 out of 10 cases ended miserably.
If stepping proactively worked, there would be no heroin epidemic now.
Having said that: step in proactively at ALL TIMES.
good news on the ralph..

Yep. Pegs is a self made billionaire. He didn't start life with Dad's money. One thing he knows that other idiot-inheritance NFL owners don't: economics and investing.
Me too. The picture in the article shows the superior site lines the Ralph has in the bowl. Better site lines than many of these new stadiums.
Yeah. For sure. WNY is not the land of richie-rich Fortune 500 executives. I think if they build a palace, many of us would be priced out.
Good points. It's not just the stadium that could be updated---the Ralph campus could use some upgrades.
I support of full remodel of the Ralph. That would break the 70's theme. Though I don't know a fix for the family issue.
