    On Macy's parade they just had a New York Life float with a "performance" by ... Foreigner?  Or some facsimilie - is Foreigner really Foreigner without "Rochester's own Lou Gramm"?  (the years I was in college in Rochester in the 80s I don't think I ever heard a Foreigner song on the radio without also hearing the DJ say "Rochester's own Lou Gramm")

    Rochester Chamber of Commerce had a lot of 'pull' in those days.  (Then came digital photography...🙁)

    I wonder if Saleh would have at least one win with the Lions.

     

    https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/michigan-lawmakers-urge-lions-to-hire-robert-saleh-as-head-coach-in-bipartisan-letter/

     

    Rep. Abdullah Hammound (D-Dearborn) took the lead on the letter, with 36 other bipartisan members of the Michigan House of Representatives joining him. Here's a portion of the letter, per The Detroit News.

     

    "We are writing today to thank you for your recent decision to make a change at manager and head coach for your franchise," the letter states. "These decisions are often difficult but are necessary to move forward. For many in our state, and across the globe, the Detroit Lions hold a special place in our lives. We look forward to future success through transitioning to a new manager and head coach.

    "Speaking of head coach, we have one name in mind - Robert Saleh," the letter continues. "A hometown hero, Robert was raised in the Dearborn community, attended Fordson High School, played his college career at Northern Michigan University, and coached at Michigan State University. Everywhere Robert has been he has achieved success. Most recently, as Defensive Coordinator for the San Francisco 49ers, his defense has improved across numerous categories; turnovers, sacks, and yards allowed per game. He has built and maintained one of the best defenses in the league."

    Reported.  Politics. 😁

    Must have no business to conduct in the Michigan legislature. 🤔

    As for Yolo's post of a few hours ago, 😳

    In my 20s I had a friend from high school I used to run 5ks with.  A few 10ks as well but mainly the 5k.  
     

    I haven’t a ran a 5k in over 5 years but signed up for on New Years Day as a fitness goal/see if I can still do it kind of thing.  
     

    Anyone here compete in these runs or finish a marathon?  

    Many years ago, not any more.  Three marathons, only one of which I was satisfied with.  Many 10k, 5 milers, not as many 5k.  20k was a fun distance in you had to approach it with respect and planning, usually ran the 'Run for Your Life' 20k in September in Buffalo, early 80s.    Turkey Trot every Thanksgiving from 1982-2005; was only working on the Niagara Tunnel Project for a week in November of 2006, and didn't think missing a day of work the first week was a good idea.  The streak ended at 24.

    Who is the Bills Esa Tikkanen?  Who is the Bills Harriet Tubman?  Who is the Bills Andrew Dice Clay?  Is McDermott just a peace time Benjamin Disreali or can he be a Kublai Khan?  Is Beane enough Otto Von Bismarck or is he too much Hirohito?  

     

    Each new thread is a race to the bottom.

    Shut down the forums until after the NO game.  Jauronimo just won TBD-TSW. 😆🍺🏆

    Makes no sense for the Bills

     

    If he sucks then he obviously can't help us

     

    If he's good then McDaboll would make sure to make him inactive every game so that we can continuing watching ZM run into the backs of our o lineman

    I laughed at that, but not twice. 😁
