  1. I seen a Bills fan tweet to Diggs recently telling him to unfollow the Bills and follow Cowgirls just to screw with people.
  2. I originally thought this was Lamar Jackson's tweet. My mistake. Someones idea of a bad joke. (I deleted it on twitter )
  3. Hyatt has a 149.0 QB rating when targeted so in a QB's eyes he looks pretty damn good.
  4. My guy right here to keep them Safety's back and open up Diggs.
  5. The reason I brought Tottenham into the discussion is because its one of Populous's architectural crown jewels IMO. Also the type cable suspension used for the partial roof/ over hang is somewhat unique in design. It was brought into the discussion as a compliment to Populous. So why make it into something its not. Did you know one of the hold ups on this project currently has to do with Buffalo trying to make sure as much of the construction as possible is done by local contractors? Page down one to watch amazing footage of another Stadium designed by Populous (Tottenham) over hang in high winds.
  6. People can have a change of heart when you see the kind of weather that can cancel a home game. Or worse...
  7. Lol, hey man, I was trying to avoid mentioning the D word, and only used it once. Populous has a great reputation. Absolutely. Buffalo and Orchard Park on the other hand has its own reputation as having the worst weather in the NFL. Somewhat unique conditions. 4 foot of snow adds up fast at 20 lbs a cubic foot.
  8. I mean sphere shaped towards the top. Wind will increse at the top and push over the opening.
  9. Speaking of wind its possible strong blowers could help prevent to much snow from accumulating on the interior IMO. Another reason a sphere shape design may be more beneficial in the environment IMO.
  10. My thought is If the stadium was designed more like a sphere thats cut off at the top at a certain point you will keep more snow out and may not have to deal with it at all from an accumulation standpoint. Big Skylights around the top of the sphere. Easier to go Dome in the future. To me the current roof and opening design may allow for to much snow accumulation into the interior. Blowing around in blizzard conditions and going places that are harder to remove vs falling more downward IMO. Snow goes sideways allot in Orchard Park.
  11. Oh great moon, great moon above Please send this message to my darling dove Reminding her of my undying love, Hear my plea and send this message for me, Note: This was lyrics from a song my late Dad wrote when he was over seas fighting in the Korean War
  12. The Bills had a very tough time getting traction vs Cinci and that alone put the Bills Secondary on its collective heels IMO. We know McD himself will be an upgrade though right?
  13. I understand By reducing each helmet to helmet impact a minimum of 20% you can also see where cumulatively speaking it would help.
  14. Its new technology so listen to some of the experiences in using the Guardian Cap from a coach that really cares like this one.
  15. Setting an example for the younger generation and leading the pack is my hope. The exterior protection on helmets can help protect not only football players. All sports where head injury is possible IMO. It can also help protect bicyclist, motorcylclist, construction workers even IMO. The list goes on and on. Having been hit in the head myself working below other construction workers. I can tell you the extra outer hard hat protection would have clearly helped IMO.
  16. Its relevant because NFL players are gladiators and entertainers. What they look like does matter. The modern day Gladiator needs better head protection so he can continue to entertain the world...
  17. Nothing has really been done to make the Guardian Cap less noticeable or more attractive IMO. So from a fashion standpoint its possible enough improvements could be made to make the cap acceptable to the players IMO.
  18. Keeping the fans and players in a more favorable temp and playing conditions at a critical time of the season/playoffs would be most beneficial IMO. At bare minimum its not to much to ask IMO.
  19. Very appealing Stadium design. I agree.
  20. Heres a few pictures of Tottenham Stadium which may have helped influence the Bills new stadium design. Amen to that... Revisions are constantly being made when a big project is under construction
  21. Good reputation, and a good reply. Part of being good at what they do may be transparency and listening to what the public is telling them.
