I pretty much agree with this as well. Concussions are easy to "stretch out" medically because few will ever kill a team for playing it safe with someone's brain. I don't think the above is the most likely scenario but it is totally plausible.

I thought week 1 was pretty safe, and that seemed nice because at least I could get one decent, hopeful weekend out of the season. Now it's like...hmmm.

I think it's hideous.

I don't see the McDermott having anything close to the same milquetoast personality as Jauron. To be fair, I've seen pillow pals with more fire than Dick Jauron.

La Confora was just on WFAN, I tried to type his quotes as close to being quotes as I could. Look Mcdermott is the new sherriff in town, he is sick of some of the factions and cliques and infighting going on there. You look at some of Doug Whaley guys who could do no wrong. Doug Whaley reached and empowered the player (Sammy) because of that. He drafted a hurt player who stayed hurt who will want a ton of money next year, and had been a divisive player from a personnel standpoint. The Bills are reshaping themselves and getting some controversial figures out of the mix.

How are the Jets set up for picks for next year? Seems like some team at the top of next year's draft is gonna get a damn boatload of picks if they want them....

Man I can hardly wait to hear the other players opinions on this one. New to the team, not new to the team, whatever.

Well...didn't see that coming.

An obnoxious Yankee fan? Never heard of any such thing! What a shock! Anyway, loved Mike and the Mad Dog, like Mike on his own. As long as he's not pontificating on horse racing, movies, or politics. In which case, *click*. Listening to him DOG the Jets, then claim over and over he's NOT dogging the Jets, is always fun.

The mind boggles! If the hedge fund guys up and finally leave CT it's going to end up looking like a rural version of Raqqa. The state has often been floated almost completely by big companies and a few big earners. Many companies got out or want out. I assume the big earners will find greener pastures too, as the taxes get worse, and worse, and worse....

Thanks Illinois and Puerto Rico. We're not the worst! We're not the worst! Connecticut is a great place to be right now if you load moving vans for a living. We'll catch up to Illinois soon, I'm sure.

I sometimes wondered why people were wearing bike helmets to these "protests". Well, because you might get hit with a bike lock. Makes perfect sense! http://www.eastbaytimes.com/2017/05/24/berkeley-college-professor-arrested-as-assault-suspect/ Super surprising this isn't all over the normal news channels. Cuz man there is some great video of it.

That. Though in an odd way we're almost there in bizarro world....since they surveil whoever the f they want anyway it seems, one could argue it is being ignored in everyone's case! FAIRNESS!

It's an interesting situation. An order which seems completely legal in it's final form being undone by previously stated illegal motives.

I intend to pay my TBD forum dues with my "accepted for value" stamp.

Dif board, same denial. Teef loves him some Applebees.

I keep reminding my wife I had 30k+ posts at BB.com and for some reason it's getting me NOWHERE.

I used to take myself seriously, now I can't.

Sam Adams pick 6 for sure. Also 04, when we held the Browns QB (McCown?) to negative yards and just owned their offense all day. Man I knew the Browns were bad but thought we were going to be a dominant defense for years. Oh well.

Good, was hoping this would happen as the rumors were indicating. Don't let the door hit ya, etc etc etc

So many division games at the end of the season could either be a blessing or a curse. Judging by the last 20+ years.... And I used to complain about not getting primetime games but...F primetime games. I can't stand being that pissed of at 11:30, it makes for an angry sleep.

Jeez. I'd like to see how the team and HC handle this (sternly would be a good idea IMO) but it seems most teams (understandably) leave the heavy lifting to the league office on these decisions.

Nah, it makes sense. Because it's a football site and I'm a Bills fan. If I had Billie B spy money I'd wouldn't be sitting here in this cheap suit. holy moly What's up man!

Well they had email addresses I think, which is good for some marketing, but legally have to have opt outs. But I don't recall ever giving them any more of my info, maybe my state? The Bills Store customer info was more comprehensive than that. While you're right Facebook is scattershot, all ads kind of are, and if they are the only official Bills outlet...I'm not going to UNfollow just because I have to slide past some ads now and then. Whereas with email ads I can just opt out once and be done. A I think it's probably a bit of everything honestly. They can market on Facebook, and not have to deal with the cost and trouble of the board, win win for them I guess.

I wasn't questioning whether sports teams did this, and I don't have a problem with it (As a Sox fan I have to point out Buckner came back to the Sox in 90 as a player, but got to throw the first pitch only AFTER the Sox had already won 2 championships!). What I really doubt is that there is some real value or historical lesson to be had for the players today, from learning the old culture or relating to it that will help them change or understand anything they do today. That seemed to be your line of thinking and I can't agree with that. But again, I am fine with this. It's a nice thing to do, and it's good PR. I just think it has absolutely 0 to do with anything that will happen on the field next season. It's fluff.
