Yes, rare for an athlete. My doc says genetics play a large role. Some could eat celery sticks 24/7 and still suffer heart disease. Apparently O'Leary falls in that group. Also, those of Irish descent appear more susceptible to heart disease. The good news: if caught early, statin drugs are effective. Heart treatment is amazing these days. O'Leary back in 2021 is not unreasonable.

COVID is declining nation wide, not rising. Yes, there are some hot spots like FL and AZ. Daily COVID-19 Deaths in the U.S. Have Fallen Dramatically Since April

COVID may have saved us from ourselves.. in regard to the build downtown or renovate New Era decision. Taxpayers Still on the Hook for Stadium Debts, Even Though Coronavirus Canceled Sports

And sold Sabres = Sabres moving out of town. Just watch.

Truth. It's going to be a tooth and nail fight to win the division. Fasten your seatbelts and pass the TUMS.

Notice it's considering. Let's hope it's posturing by some lawyer in the MLB legal department to mitigate future risk. Worse case scenario would be a player dies of the Chinese Virus, then MLB can say "we gave closing camp due consideration."

Losing a Restricted Free Agent (Lawrence Pilut) to the commies was probably the last straw.

Bill Belichick teams are a "No Drama Zone" ..he would have no tolerance for the side show that Kap would bring Been out of football for 4 years. Was never very good anyway. He's not sincerely looking for an NFL job.

There are 32 teams, and about 15 franchise quarterbacks. That sizable gap is going to lead all kinds of head scratching situations. It's not that there is a tolerance for mediocrity. It's that most teams simply don't have any better options.

Well that was cheerful. He's not wrong.

Don't be so naive. Press conference with the Erie County DA showed the 5 of 9 arrests were out of towners. Fact.

Praying for no injuries. That would be awful.

I could be wrong -- but I'm pretty certain club involvement in off-season practices where players voluntarily get together is strictly forbidden by the collective bargaining agreement with the NFLPA. I mean like seriously forbidden. Like losing draft picks forbidden.

I've been to five games in OP. Bills are undefeated in games I attended, though that was during the Superbowl run in the 1990s.

If you mega-pay a player (Allen in this hypothetical), and also overpay 2or 3 players you end up in salary cap jail. Jailed teams are less competitive. Rookie contracts are very salary cap friendly. That's why the draft is so critical to success. A good draft gives you financial flexibility to pick up assets in free agency. To the OP: my opinion is that in 2022 if Josh Allen is lighting up the league, back up the Brinks truck to his house.

You're right, this won't continue long. We're only in this cap position because our franchise QB is cheap--and that contract ends in a couple years. You're right (number 2) WE DESERVE IT

Ambien and liquor will do that to you. Ambien alone does it for some people.

lolz, if Josh Allen turns out to his potential, our QB 4 years from now will be Jake Fromm State Farm.

If the COVID epidemic taught me anything, the primary lesson learned is: experts and their models and simulations are generally bull.

lolz... you may be closer to the truth than you realize. Why build a palace stadium when the TV contract is most of your revenue? It's nice to have the Chargers pissing off the NFL more than the Bills.

Whether this "portends well" is debatable. But it is certainly meaningful in one way or another. Buffalo is susceptible to price overruns on major construction (why would be a discussion for PPP). But you know costs overruns must be clearly on the mind of major players (Pegula's, Poloncarz, Cuomo) when they are looking at all the alternatives.

Fingers crossed that JA can fix his long ball over the summer.

That bastard!

Semi-off topic: I just ordered Mufaletta Olive salad from Amazon. It will be here Monday. I can't wait. Off topic because it's a marinade, not pickled.

I see someone already replied to the effect of: kick the tires, sign to a vet minimum prove-it deal, git er done. I'm mean he's a high motor with a nose for the ball process guy.
