Getting additional picks (including a day 2 pick) and being on the board with a handful of players I’d like the bills to draft is cool with me.
The Bills did not net an additional pick.

I’ve wondered that as well, people keep talking about all these fifth round picks. How much value do they actually have in these trade up scenarios?
Saw last night the KC trade was in the top 10 weakest returns for a similar move per the value chart-

Don’t mind the trade backs but I feel like they were both weak returns.
after two trade backs Beane still has the same number of picks he had before the draft started. If you’re trading back, at least reap extra picks.

The Sabres sent an e-mail to fans who comprise less than 1% of their season ticket base that “in light of the recent ticket reseller laws” passed by the NY state legislature in 2022, those who sell a high percentage of their games on the secondary market would have to purchase a license from the state to be able to purchase their season tickets.
It is from NY state.
Until at least one other NY based team sends a similar letter, the Sabres are using this "recent ticket reseller law" as a crutch for this new policy.

The Sabres blaming the state is hilarious. If that was the case I'd imagine at least the Bills, Bandits, Knicks, Yankees, Mets, etc etc etc would have similar rules... but none do - just the Sabres.
Don't worry, though, Terry will build another well if he needs some extra money.

demanding interest from Favre on a "loan" of Federal money is actually illegal.
The countersuit cites the Mississippi code RE the interest on page 28. It's not illegal.
Favre also agrees to pay back the $1.1 mil plus interest the day before his first payment of $500,000.

Here is the actual claim - https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/24408674-shad-white-counterclaim-against-brett-favre - in relation to the principal and interest owed here - pages 28 and 29 calculate this
December 27, 2017: $500,000 funneled to Favre
June 2018: $600,000 funneled to Favre
$1,100,000 total sans interest
By May 5th, 2020, Favre owed $1,100,000 in principal and $437,000 in accrued statutory interest ($1,537,000 total)
May 6, 202: Favre admits he is personally responsible and will pay back the state the full sum of plus interest he owes "in the coming months"
May 7, 2020: Favre pays $500,000. This leaves a balance of $740,000 in unpaid principal which continues to bear interest plus $132,000 in already accrued interest
October 25, 2021 (over a year later - lots of accruing interest): Favre pays $600,000 which reduced the principal owed by Favre to $437,000 with no further interest at that time
February 5, 2023: Favre still owes $437,000. Since October 25th 2021, another $292,790 in statutory interest has accrued from the $437,000 he still owes.
$437,000 + $292,790 = the money in the claim (which will continue to grow with interest)

It is not my position. But nowhere in the article did it say Favre made the interest off of the money he took. The article actually said nothing about where the figure came from. Only that in their opinion he owed interest on the original amount.
My guess, is the interest they are speaking about was based on a percentage they came up with or the Value of the money from when he originally took it to the point he paid it back. Maybe it was even based on his net worth from one point in time to another. We don't know that because it was never explained.
Personally I feel like paying the amount he took is fine.
He took $1.1 million, and then paid back $1.1 million years later (in two separate sums). In essence, as the article points out, this is a $1.1 million loan sans interest. He should have to pay more, just as he would have if he took out a $1.1 million loan. My guess on the interest is that it is a percentage based on what one would pay if they took out a loan of $1.1 million and failed to pay until Favre paid back the first part of the full sum he owed.
The rest of your post is a bit political for my taste in this forum. We all know the govt. and large corporations rob us more than the average person. That has zero to do with this specific case.

I dont like what Farve has done post football, but he paid the 1.1 million back. This article is about the Government going after interest on the original 1.1 million which I have no problem with him not paying. I'd go into why it doesnt get me in a tizzy, but this is in the main forum and not PPP.
Is it your position that if one steals $X million and then makes $Y in interest off the stolen $X, the thief should be entitled to keep $Y after they rightfully pay back $X?
I disagree quite a bit.

Idk but I'll never forget one of my first games.
Eagles @ Bills - Bills are driving to win the game and it's 4th and 8 or so. Drew Bledsoe is pressured, scrambles out of the pocket, and throws the ball away OOB because he thought it was 3rd down.
My father told me to get used to it. -
Can't find snap counts for yesterday yet but he was on the field multiple times over Knox as the #2 TE and was the only TE on the field a few times as well.
What does he do better than Knox?

Championship Caliber lol

Diggs run away again for the offseason without saying a word?

Hamlin motioning multiple times side to side prior to the snap of the punt was a dead giveaway it was a fake.

Could have used him yesterday.
Beane needs to replace Davis and add another body at WR.

I have a bigger issue with the 1st and 3rd down calls.
Shot to Shakir was fine - the run up the gut to nowhere when everyone and their mother knew it was coming and whatever that 3rd down play was was brutal.

This team is far from a mess heading into next season. They will be solid and with the right additions and players returning from injury we will be better.

Why did he choose to go toward the windier side of the field in the 4th quarter? That was a weird decision.

Get a vet who has punted in the cold in the playoffs.
Need steady and reliable punts not low arcs and the possibility of a highlight-reel 80 yard punt

I think Coleman (X stater) and Davis (backup) both play a lot on offense - thus giving Allen a couple of new weapons to use. I could also see Van Pan starting by the middle of the season. That's potentially 3 offensive rookies from this draft contributing quite a bit. Not bad for picking at the end of each round.
Coleman, IMO, was a swing for the fences pick. There were safer options there, but he had the highest ceiling of all remaining receivers.
