SinceThe70s

As always Augie - a breath of fresh air in the midst of a steaming pile. I have no problem with negativity and criticism, but you nailed it wrt the repetitive trolls. OP claims the negativity isn't a knee jerk reaction. Um, sure, this board looked the same before Sunday with rampant, repetitive threads popping up by the minute and the smelly egg we laid on Sunday was just a coincidence. For the record I tend to be a Bills-loving apologist. Not sure if I would've lasted this long otherwise. But Sunday and the pre-season lead up have raised some serious concerns about McBeane. In particular, the handling of the QB situation looks indefensible right now. I had similar concerns after the San Diego debacle last year. But somehow they turned it around and I'll hope for the same in the upcoming weeks. Go Bills!

That was my first thought too. I won't go so far as saying there is nothing wrong with them, but they get at least through this season to prove themselves and unless this season is an abject failure they get next year too. Starting over from scratch every time theirs' a bump in the road (sinkhole in this case) will get us nowhere.

I don't understand why Browns fans would be upset today. At 0-0-1 they are off to their best start since 2004.

Just ask the Hanson brothers: Call the pizza man! https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/b510e24d-79e1-45ee-b356-e47ebc084e51

That's what scares me the most as well. The general consensus was Allen would need some time but their backup/transition plan looks pretty bad right now.

Sticking with Peterman and bringing in McCarron as the only alternatives suggests otherwise.

Sometimes I wonder whether the Bills are real life or just a bad dream. It must be real life, I don't curse in my dreams.

Unlike the line from Pulp Fiction that was not a tasty burger

Nice call. I think the character name was Howard. He always played likable guys, probably true to himself. RIP.

The last thing she heard before she was handed the candle was "Meep meep"

A few years ago I watched an 11th/12th grader repeatedly say "what the fudge". Didn't know the kid or parents (who were present) very well and wondered if this was a high school thing. Don't think I've heard it since. I couldn't decide whether it was good that he consciously chose not to curse or just kind of stupid because everyone knew the intent. Not being judgmental, honestly I don't give an eff either way

This is outstanding. A shining example of what makes this place so great. When I came up to Buffalo with the fam last year I combed TBD for advice on a number of threads and it helped out tremendously. Putting it in one place was a great idea. One suggestion I have is to add a section for seat selection pros and cons...sightlines, sitting/standing, sun/shade, the drunk factor. I got a lot of good advice last year and it was a big help.

Me too. Although as the kids get older they hear it from time to time when Mom's not around. And Mom hears it from time to time when the kids aren't around. It's usually for comedic effect. Not sure why, but some things are much funnier to me with a few curses thrown in.

I look forward to the day when I can call a Bills GM a huge disappointment a few years after winning a Super Bowl.

He's not the only GM having a hard time finding a QB as good as he was.

It just got a little better with Frazier's comments today. This is worth watching to the end. https://www.sny.tv/video/2470031483/frazier-explains-his-catch

Always is never right. Never is always wrong.

This is amazing. If you didn't see it last night, Todd Frazier dove into the stands to catch a foul ball last night: https://www.mlb.com/news/todd-frazier-catches-foul-ball-in-stands/c-293232214 Except he didn't. On the pregame tonight they showed how when he dove into the stands he came out with a rubber ball in his glove and a fan had the real baseball. Wish I had video of the segment, maybe it'll get posted later. In the mean time if you look at the video above between the 10 and 16 second marks you can see a guy in a white Turner shirt pick up the real ball and hand it to a hottie with a Dodgers hat on backwards. At the 51 second mark you can see the ball underneath Frazier next to a green backpack as he's diving into the stands. Must've picked up the other ball off the ground before he got up.

1991 - Frank Layden, Utah Jazz president, on a former player: "I told him, 'Son, what is it with you. Is it ignorance or apathy?' He said, 'Coach, I don't know and I don't care.' "

Love the Toasted Lager. I got nervous when they partnered with Anheuser Busch, but it's still just as good. That along with Yuengling and Shiner Bock are my current go-to's.

Camden Yards was the model for most ball parks built ever since...including Citi Field, but not Yankee Stadium.. I had the good fortune to attend a game the inaugural season at Camden. Fun story, no clue if they still do it. If a fan caught a foul ball the stadium announcer would say "Give that fan a contract" and an usher would hand the fan a contract. After one or more of catches if a fan blew the catch the announcer would say "give that fan...an error!".

I saw frustration on his face after Rosario booted the ground ball. The error came after a 10+ pitch at bat. I think he was pissed that it cost him pitching into the 7th. Nevertheless he beared down and got out of it.

DeGrom's night: second straight game where he gave up only one run and knocked in the only run for his team while he was pitching. had as many hits as he gave up (2) This is sketchy because I was half paying attention and any of these 'facts' could be wrong, but 24 straight games where DeGrom has given up 3 or less earned runs, tying a record by Gooden and/or a record set around 1913. his ERA went down from 1.68 after tonights start

No, they actually went 4 wide...LF, LCF, RCF, RF. The overshifts we see with the 2b in short right is closer to the rover mentality.

Point well taken. Laughing at myself. Still..Stevie Nicks?
