I don't think OP ever asserted that Hopkins was better than Brown, he just made an interesting statistical comparison between the two for this year. OP's assertion that McD and company should be more concerned with Hyde and Duke as a result is unfounded IMO.

At the risk of speaking for OP, I think his point was about current year productivity, not a comparison of their careers. And I didn't think he was saying Brown was better than Hopkins. Where I think OP over stepped was: "I'm guessing Carlos Hyde and Duke Johnson are probably worrying Frasier and McD more than Hopkins,"

The old saying applies here: truth is stranger than fiction. The whole situation is hard for me to relate to. Biggest trap ever set on my property was one of those over-sized snap traps for a rat.

I've been watching this. Call me crazy but it's making me more confident about tomorrow. I think we're ready to take that next step.

I'll be spending the morning and early afternoon shuttling the kids around, attending to the honey-do list and just trying to kill time before kickoff. After (and actually including) that my day looks like unbridled enthusiasm!! Go Bills!

In Sparano's case I think he had eyeball issues.

LOL. PC Richard is an appliance/electronics dealer in the tri-state area. Years ago my brother-in-law had Jets seasons and would take me to the Bills game. After every Jets first down they'd play the notes from the PC Richard jingle and I'd look at BIL and say, "I'm not sure why, but I feel like buying a refrigerator right about now".

@Da webster guy Fascinating stats. Two things that stuck out to me: on 35 more targets, Hopkins had 32 more catches but only 105 more yards. The 32 catches on 35 extra targets suggests better hands or a more accurate QB (cue the Allen haters). The comparable yardage suggests a lot of 'less productive' catches. I looked up how many first down receptions they had: 53 for Brown (74% of his receptions), 68 for Hopkins (65%) which is pretty much a wash for me and suggests that my 'less productive' insinuation was wrong. Anyway, I didn't get the impression you were making the point that Brown was better then Hopkins, just that the production this year was comparable. Stats are great, the eye tests are great, but neither should be ignored. For tomorrow, I'm sure the Bills won't overlook Hopkins because of the stats.

Cheer up sleepy Jean Oh, what can it mean to a Daydream believer and a Homecoming queen?

Originally I asked you "How so?" but after reviewing I assume it's because all the choices except winning the SB included "Loser" Fair criticism, wasn't my intention to be negative. If you can suggest better names for the categories I'll consider editing (if possible).

How so?

I don't think that's out of the question. But I would consider it a pleasant surprise. My assumption is it would mean Josh took the next step.

I had the same question about it being scripted. Don't think it was. Steve Harvey would have had a much better line if it was scripted. He looked pissed/incredulous. This was meathead Gronk being meathead Gronk IMO. It was one thing that he spiked it, but then he kicked the eff out of it.

LOL, I had no idea. I checked and my TV has a Monochrome option. Who knew? Well, not me. I'm still kind of troubled about how I'll deal if they go with light gray on light gray with light gray helmets. Somehow I'll power through, I'll just have to.

Two years ago I was thrilled the drought was over and I had no expectation that we'd make it past the Jags. Wasn't conceding the game, but expectations were low. Fast forward and I firmly believe that the current Bills team is capable of beating anyone. At the same time I don't think we're strong enough to make a run at the SB, but I hope I'm wrong. How far do you think we make it this year? One and done? All the way? Again, I'll never concede defeat for any game but my expectation is we beat Houston and lose in the divisional round. Go Bills!

How could I do that if I were so inclined?

Even though it's Bill related, Off The Wall is probably a better home for a tribute to this Schoolhouse Rock singer: https://www.cnn.com/2020/01/01/entertainment/jack-sheldon-dead/index.html

I'm a day late and a dollar short but props to @Tesla03 for a late entry to the 'Worst Post of 2019' contest. Doesn't rises to the level of gold medal but a strong late entry all the same.

I just came across this. LMFAO. I know it goes without saying, but what a meathead.

It's Dalton/Boyd in a landslide for me. Two honorable mentions with some recency bias:
