  1. Ticket sales, national attention, all things combined, its a good argument Coconut. I'm going with J K, and while this may sound a bit premature for some, Josh Allen a close 2nd, Hey, you can't blame a guy for liking good QB's...
  2. Thanks AFL, This helps illustrate the older age group we are talking about that has been hospitalized. To be clear while 25% of the population may smoke. A smaller percentage of the ages 60 on up will be smokers. ( Approx. 5 % ) Eventually more information/accurate numbers will become available to the general public of how pre-existing condition may have played a role in Covid 19 fatalities. It would not surprise me if there was an indication that smokers who have quit after smoking for many years were at greater risk from Covid 19 then non smokers.
  3. I think the other 20% of smokers/ hospitalizations you are missing quit smoking earlier in life. ( IMO ) Prior lung damage and Covid 19 are not a good combination in my humble opinion. Nice try for the tobacco industry though...
  4. Interesting, hydrogen peroxide is toxic when inhaled and on sunny days I could see steam developing and becoming a problem. Alchohol on the other hand evaporates quickly into the air (which may work as a cleansing mechanism) and might prove to be more suitable. Honey, the Bud light street mister is driving by, I'm going outside for some brewski. ( buzzed and safe ) I agree on the primary mode of transmission and something we all don't need to lose sight of IMO. Does your wife have any idea's Hapless, If you don't mind my asking? Something more natural and safer on the environment like a soap mist or neem oil perhaps? Thanks for all the educational responses you are giving and for pointing out to everyone the decisions/ compliances we make as individuals can help save countless lives. while we're on the subject/ UV Light https://finance.yahoo.com/video/coronavirus-could-contained-using-uv-010001631.html
  5. The numbers may reflect more on the higher age group of senior citizens that stands the most chance of being hospitalized IMO. Many of whom If they have smoked in the past were forced to quit earier in life. Finding a higher number of smokers in our younger generation, (our super carriers flying under the radar) would not surprise me. Interesting...
  6. Good assessment of the situation IMO. I think Mcbeane wants to develop this guy and see where it goes so by the end of the season Buffalo might have another option at backup. Here's the thing, depending on what happens and how well Barkey plays again this preseason, I think its very possible another team might have an interest in Matt Barkely. I don't want to give BB and the Pats any idea's, but hey, I'm just saying...
  7. https://www.yahoo.com/news/study-finds-coronavirus-could-more-184528558.html Scientist in Italy have detected Covid 19 attached to small particles of air pollution suggesting area's of higher smog/ air pollution may expand the distance Covid 19 can spread through the air. It also may suggest at least IMO the development of something that can be dispersed through the air to weigh Covid 19 particulates down. Something breathable and safe for the environment. Is something we may want to take a real hard look at in my humble opinion. Any thoughts on this Hapless? On a side note the partial shutdown and stay at home order has without a doubt decreased smog/ air pollution across the US.
  8. Speaking of American Idol, impressive top 20 and the sing at home for votes Sunday night was spectacular IMO. One of the singers reminds me of John Fogerty. Puts a smile on my face every time he sings. Big fan of American Idol. The NFL may want to a close look at how well a performance that normally includes a live audience in attendance can be pulled off IMO. Well done American Idol... My apologies for straying off topic OP. Folks have probably heard enough about Higgins from Figgy...
  9. Getting the same vibe and almost posted as much earlier, Sweet...
  10. I think Buffalo has done a real good job of getting Barkely's game back on track. Being a big fan of the QB position I find the Fromm pick a very interesting one and anxious to see how he acclimates to the NFL.
  11. Touche on the Wade Phillips D SirAndrew I said he helped, hehe
  12. dog14787 Until I was a bad dog...
  13. I evolved from a dog into a Fig Newton and on to a Figster. Some call me Figgy, and I like it...
  14. Its a good point and part of the reason why Allen struggles with long ball accuracy IMO. Give him more overall size in his WR corp and I believe we will see a better completion % with long ball throws from Josh Allen. Less of an arc on long balls allows more chances for smaller DB's to make a play and less time for a WR to adjust IMO. Its all fine and good to have the ability to throw with velocity. On the other hand you better have an ability to throw with touch or even the easiest pass plays become a problem. Peyton Manning helped win his last Championship with what most would call a noodle arm because he understood what more arc and touch would give him, made the proper adjustments and played within his limitations in my humble opinion. Smart fella, that Manning...
  15. Absolutely, All part of the process...
  16. Reminds me of Thurman in that respect. Moss is a shifty down hill runner and in good contrast to the Barry Sanders like moves of Singletary. Another nasty wrinkle added for the opposition when facing Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills. Awwww man, pls let there be Football this season. MERCY!!!
  17. My thoughts, I thought he would go in the 1st Tee Higgins...
  18. A big part of his game plan featuring an elite caliber RB playing the QB position.
  19. Greg Roman with the Ravens begs to differ, I think it depends on what you as an OC in todays NFL is trying to accomplish. Good ball control ground game helps keep high powered O's like KC off the football field. With that being said, Tee Higgins, Tee Higgins, Tee Higgins, Stephon Diggs and Tee Higgins...
  20. Sounds like a far fetched rumour to me. I seriously doubt Aaron Rodgers, the leader of the team is even going to alienate a new player in this mannner.
  21. HappyDays would be happening for me If Buffalo drafted Tee Higgins tonight.
  22. Good argument Limeaid, Myself personally, our country, Worldwide for that matter. People, young or old, we can all learn, get better at handling a crisis in my humble opinion. So perhaps the next time around, and that day will come. Mankind can meet the challenges with a better outcome.
  23. Unfortunately, it is the premise. By way of example what If someone with Covid 19 sneezes or coughs and small droplets land on your lips. Or in your eyes? The mask, almost any mask, protects you. It also helps keep your hands out of your nose and mouth which is a habit often hard to overcome for many.
  24. Better? So the most vulnerable in our society are wearing a mask that still leaves them vulnerable? when we have something safer? These same senior citizens are the one's going on ventilators in big numbers, many not surviving. I respectfully disagree. Been worried about you my OldTime friend, Great to see you posting...
