  1. Who knew "The Match" 2022 golf tournament was two aging wash-ups versus two young stars. The wash-ups were outed today.
  2. Frazier concocted some witchy alchemy to keep Mahomes in line. Pure football genius that will be copied by other DCs facing the Chiefs this season. He's a defensive wizard.
  3. I hope the Packers beat up on the Commanders tomorrow. It would be nice to face an over-confident team with false hopes of victory. Besides: I'm just not a Commanders fan. It's an ownership kind of thing.
  4. Looking for a diet? Consider doing a 24 hour fast two days a week, eat what you want, within reason, on the off days. It's also called Eat-Stop-Eat. I only lose a pound or two a week, but I'm only 10 pounds from goal weight, so I will be patient. I fast on Mondays (lose Sunday game day snacks) and Thursdays. I've tried low-carb, keto, and low-cal. I find them hard to adhere to and I also feel like a science specimen.
  5. Well that's an interesting take. As a Capitalist, I have some affinity for letting the free market do it's thing. Conversely, as a Marketer I can see the value of throwing a starting number out there to salivate the degenerate gamblers. I still think as time progresses, the line becomes more about achieving an equilibrium in bets... not who will actually wins. Hey hey... I just Zillowed Ransomville. It looks like a very respectable town.
  6. The line is just trying to get equal bets on both sides of the equation. In this case, -8.5 brings about a point of stasis. Bookies make their money on transaction costs. The line has zero, zilch, zip, nada about what those in the know expect who to win and by how much.
  7. If they don't get cracking on the Community Benefits Agreement, there will be no stadium. Screwing up something like this is the Buffalo way.
  8. The villain here isn't Verizon. The villain is Nexstar, owners of WIVB. Nexstar is trying to screw Verizon with a 65% rate increase. That's some outrageous inflation. Verizon, would by sensible business practices be forced to pass that 65% increase onto Fios subscribers. Be pissed at Nexstar, not VZ.
  9. Is the QB susceptible to a helmet-to-helmet headshot on a sneak?
  10. McDermott practices what he preaches: resiliency and continuous self-improvement. Every game and every season since he signed with the Bills was better than his last. Is the juice worth the squeeze? He beat his mentor and top tier coach, Andy Reid, in his own dojo.
  11. And a secondary benefit to the win---if we lost, we'd wake up tomorrow with the Jets #1 in the division. My head would blow up. Thankfully, I don't have to worry about that.
  12. I solved it the easy way... I'm going to a friends house who has Spectrum. Otherwise I'd use the antenna to get WIVB. In any event, find a solution. I think the Verizon/Nexstar spat will take some time to settle. Nexstar is increasing their rate 65%. That's some wild inflation Verizon will pass onto the consumer.
  13. I'm just here to read the "Mind your own business... give them privacy" comments.
  14. Charlie the Butcher, multiple locations. If you're flying in, there's one adjacent to the airport. 1065 Wehrle Dr, Williamsville, NY 14221 It's a bit of a dive. https://www.charliethebutcher.com/files/2815/2172/0456/103665_CTB_Cayuga_Menu_3-18_2.pdf
  15. Sheesh. You'd think they'd at least hire Mr. Roto-Rooter. It's not a huge expense.
  16. Allen's stated self-improvement project this off-season was to improve YAC. Well, he delivered.
  17. Sheesh. People fantasizing about signing OBJ and CMC.... it's as if the salary cap didn't exist at all.
  18. There's nothing like a Saturday PM trade thread. There's nothing like dreamers trading a #1 for Saquon RENTAL. In Beane we trust. In fans who play the NFL like it's a Monopoly board game, not so much.
  19. I saw Paul Cambria (local celeb attorney) on WGRZ, and he said essentially this. Soy Latte Animal Rights Activist is likely complaining that Wagner used excessive force.
  20. I'm not very good with faces. Compound that with those faces being buried in a helmet, and I'm done for. Tom Brady could pass me on the street and I wouldn't even notice. FWIW... a friend of mine had an Ed Oliver experience at Dave & Busters. It was very positive and made him an Ed Oliver jersey owner. There's a lot to be said about being humble and having basic manners.
  21. Where is the "you can't teach accuracy" crowd with this one?
  22. I didn't wear my new Bill's gear and they won. I wore it last week and they lost. There must be a proper christening procedure for new gear that I'm missing. Shall I wear my new gear out and about eating chicken wings?
  23. MVP is the player that a select few journalists select. It's a personality contest skewed by major media markets. If the vote were today: it would be Tua, or an Eagle, or a Ram, or a Charger. Actual contribution on the field is of secondary consideration. EDIT UPDATE: there's a mix of reality and sarcasm in my reply. Sorry for the mix up.
