Love it but then how has he not been a perennial 99 in Madden. Seems like he had the right endorsement to be.😉😁

Cool. Does that mean we get to have high level business meetings? 🍺

You’ll have to start a series of kid’s books. Instead of “Where’s Waldo” it will be “Ethan In” with you in a Bills Jersey. Looking forward to the Ethan In ....Trouble edition 😁 Good luck with the move!

Great, great news!

On here constantly. Don’t post often but I definitely have the illness. And the only cure is more cowbell…..er…….I mean Bills!

Me too

No, that’s Bojorquez. Although it’s Scissorhands. 😉

True and I agree. Probably wouldn’t be a good one right now. Just like the reference to the first man made thing into orbit. That and I’m not really expecting my suggestions to be taken seriously. Good call out, though. 🙂

I’m going with Matty Moonshot Or keeping with the space theme, Sputnik.

Let’s just hope it’s not Longshanks. 😉 Here all week, folks. Don’t forget to tip your waiter….

I wonder if they are waiting to see what impact Von can have on him and what Von’s thoughts are on him after being together for a bit. Von is known as a great player, obviously, but also a great leader. He got AD to be more vocal and leadership-confident. Maybe the Bills are looking to see if he can do the same for Tremaine as well as player coach him up a bit. Tin foil hat, I know, but just a thought that occurred to me.

Not sure if this is the right thread and not sure if mentioned somewhere else already. If either, my apologies. That said, and trying not to read too much into it, but did anybody else find it strange that during Emmanuel Sanders interview on GMFB he talks about all of Josh’s great receiving targets, listed by name, as well as all the great receivers he (Emmanuel) has played with (again listed by name) and not a single mention of Diggs? Anything he knows that we don’t? https://www.buffalobills.com/news/why-emmanuel-sanders-has-high-hopes-for-gabriel-davis-and-josh-allen-in-2022 Nevermind. He says Diggs in the actual interview. He’s just getting talked over and it mustn’t have made the transcript. Nothing to see here.

Not sure if we are sticking to TV. My favorite is Jeremiah. My least is Walter Football. If TV, probably McShay.

That is awesome! And thanks for the link. Really enjoy hearing him play. 👍

You are an incredibly articulate and well reasoned individual, Gunner. Your voice of reason is a very good thing on this board. That said, I don’t agree with the above. Do we get to sentence them legally? No. People can’t throw him in jail or worse because of their belief. But every individual can make up their own mind of what they believe. And once done, they can choose to support that individual and the business they work for or not depending on their judgement, even if it is flawed. In this instance, Browns fans can choose to support the Browns and give them their money or not regardless of the court results. In the end it may not matter. The Browns may still be successful and profitable as in the case of Big Ben. But whether that ends up happening or not, each individual can believe as they choose and assess their own guilt and liability. If I’m a Brown’s fan and don’t believe the verdict, I don’t personally need to just accept it and spend my money on him/the Browns. It is free will.

There you are. Knew you couldn’t give up an opportunity to display your true colors. I’ll accept my irrationality and you accept that you are a supreme hypocrite. And please don’t stop thinking that when you make all those snide comments and use those douchie emojis, it is the ones you are talking to who are looking bad in their glow. Now come back with a snide insult and your patented emoji. You know you can’t resist.

Thanks muppy and I agree. I don’t agree with what he did but maybe it doesn’t represent the full extent of his character. Time to move on and hope he’s a better person than he showed that day. I’m certainly not perfect in any way.

You are correct. Context is important. Gronk was all over White earlier in the game, pushing off and shoving White aside, and no call was made. But White didn’t “sucker punch” Gronk. They were going at it in a physical game as you say. But when entitled Gronk didn’t get the call his way when the shoe was on the other foot, He responded in a cheap, sucker punch way which, again, showed his character in my eyes. How often do you see guys dive on the back of somebody else’s neck after a bad call? You don’t. I’ve seen it once. It was a cheap, punk move. It was not a normal, common response in a physical game. It was not getting in his face or giving him a shove. And I wasn’t suggesting the husband and wife analogy literally. I was using the same analogy you used earlier in the thread to illustrate the difference in how I viewed his actions. But like I said previously, you see it differently and we could just agree to disagree. But you are incapable of that. And what is truly dripping with irony is that you use the exceptional values of forgiveness and stopping the hate as pillars of your argument. Yet you use virtually every response to someone who disagrees with you to name call, deride, look down on and use your eye-rolling emojis to cut them down and attempt to act superior. Are those virtues just convenient tools you use for the sake of arguing or virtues you plan on exhibiting someday? Stop the hate, Badol. Maybe I “should have some better perspective” but you certainly aren’t wearing your hypocrisy well.

Again, I will only speak for myself but I don’t think it is as much about glorifying hate as questioning character based on his action. To me, the best argument you’ve made is about forgiveness. You are right. Forgiveness is a powerful thing that we should all strive for. It is a terrific virtue. But using your very good analogy earlier of a parent watching their daughter fight with their son-in-law, we see that fight differently. And that’s ok. You view that as a spat or heated debate. Given that, I completely understand why you take the side you are taking. I have a daughter and actually told her high school boyfriend that she was strong willed and he would need to stand his ground in a discussion if he really believed in what he was saying. So yes, I would forgive him if they argued. But what I saw Gronk do, in my eyes, was not walking in and catching my daughter and son-in-law arguing. It was more akin to walking in and seeing him walk up behind her and cold #### her because dinner wasn’t on the table when he wanted it to be. And if that happened, I would find it very hard, admittedly, to find that forgiveness. And in this instance, the “daughter” and “boyfriend” aren’t even married yet. So even if I could find some semblance of forgiveness, I sure wouldn’t be pushing her into his arms or dragging them to the altar no matter how good a provider he could be for her. So in the end, I just find what he did much more reprehensible and character questioning than you do. So I can understand why your view is different than mine. Hopefully you are able to do the same.

Fair questions. I won’t pretend to speak for others but I’ll answer for myself. Judging Beane - a little to be honest. I think Beane has done a great job and has earned a ton of “benefit of the doubt” with me but I would not love the move. Mad at Tre - no. That is completely up to Tre. Not my place to think for him. Disappointed in Josh - no, same reason as Tre. That said, I would not be likely to high five Gronk myself (although I freely admit that is virtually impossible to ever realistically happen). Turn my back on the float - not in a million years because that is a team float, not Gronk’s float. I may not agree with bringing him on board but I’m a Bills fan first, thru and thru. I care. I wouldn’t spend this much time posting on the topic when i hardly ever post if I didn’t. That said, I recognize that others may have different views and I’m a Bills fan first and foremost. Go Bills!

But what you are failing to understand is that my desire, or lack thereof, has nothing to do with his suspension or his treatment by the NFL. It has to do with my own personal thoughts and opinions of him. I could care less what judgement from the NFL is. You are approaching this as “he’s done his time”. I’m approaching this as “he’s shown his character”. Fine. Again, you have your opinion and I have mine. Maybe you are right. Maybe I am. But that doesn’t mean I have tell you you are shallow or arrogant just because you have a different opinion. But you sure seem to feel the need to insult everybody who disagrees with you. 😉😁👍🙂 (apparently obligatory use of emojis to degrade you because you have a different opinion) I’m now going to one up you with “nana nana boo boo”

You ask a simple, straightforward question so I’ll give you a simple straightforward answer; not on the team. If the Bills decide to pursue, fair enough. If we win a Super Bowl, great. I’d love to win one before I die someday. But I’d also be fine if we passed. In fact more than fine. But you are obviously someone where the ends are always going to justify the means. And that’s fine. Difference of opinion. That’s how life goes round. I just find it interesting that you continuously make every attempt to belittle everybody who has a different opinion or set of priorities than yours. They are stupid, lack self awareness, are emo, etc… just because they don’t agree with you.

Tis true. I can’t handle the rarified (hot) air up there on Mount O-pompous. 😉

This is all very eloquently stated so I guess it must be true. I feel very stupid as if I grossly lack self awareness. Thank you Tony Robbins. Oh wait, no I don’t. I still think they were not regular old aw shucks plays. They were complete piece-of-***** dirty plays. You must be in marketing, Badol. You sure know how to polish a turd. Now back to my blissful ignorance…

This (same for Jarvis Landry). I wouldn’t piss on this entitled POS if he was on fire yet alone want him on my team.
