  1. Jordan Matthews! And yay for no 3 and out! lol
  2. Bend but don't break defense.
  3. I hope so. This O line is most likely really going to struggle with pass protection today (not that they haven't the first 2 weeks...). I'm not sure if Tyrod is capable of getting the ball out quick enough though.
  4. Damn. I thought you were just joking about wanting a player injured. Yikes dude.
  5. Not off to a great start on offense...
  6. Good play Poyer! Nice stop defense!
  7. I like you! lol I think that's one of the biggest mistakes the media ever made was treating trump as a serious candidate. They had Trump stories on 24/7. It was his whole campaign strategy - say something controversial and get days worth of free publicity. They still have Trump on 24/7 on these 24 hour news channels. It's why I took them right out of my channel lineup. My TV automatically skips all of those 24 hour news channels now. I do my very best to ignore anything trump related. But it's kind of hard not to get sucked into this crap on occasion.
  8. I completely disagree. I think those things I listed clearly show his racial prejudice. You still ever explained why those statements are not racist. You just keep saying they aren't. But why? Why is saying there won't be another black president for decades not racist? He equates all black people as the same. Or saying a Hispanic judge can't rule fairly on his case because he is "Mexican" How do you explain away not renting to black people and getting sued twice by the government for racial discrimination? That's not racist??? Get real man. Or getting fined $200,000 at his casino for having black card dealer removed? Or the reports of employees saying they were forced into a back room when Trump came to visit? Or the report of him asking a golf buddy if he ever "F***** n-words" The are lots of stories like this about him... Or him referring to minorities as "THE blacks" "THE Mexicans/hispanics" "THE muslims" Or wanting to ban All Muslims from entering the US. That's an entire religion that makes up almost half the worlds popluarion, and trump talks about them like they are a race. I honestly don't understand how people can't see this guy is racist...
  9. Omg are you serious? Wow. Fox News is actually one of the, if not the worst, offender But they are a conservative news channel you you identify with them and be,ieve what they say because it fits your beliefs.
  10. I laugh when I think about some of the things the right got mad at Obama over. Like saluting with a cup of coffee in his hand. Or putting his feet on his desk. Or the White Houses Christmas tree decorations. Or how often he golfed (but now it's fine that trump golfs all the time and is on pace to spend more on travel in his first year than Obama did in 8 years). Can you even imagine if he had said or did 1/4 of the crap Trump has? OMG it would have been the most epic melt down of all melt downs...
  11. Totally agree. They need to pick a different way to protest than kneeling during the anthem. Kneeling plays right into Trump's hand. It also immediately turns off a segment of the population to the message thry are trying to deliver. Those people won't even attempt to listen to the message because they are so angered about kneeling during the anthem.
  12. Just curious. Do you like/watch FOX "news"?
  13. Study by the US dept of Justice on the Baltimore Police. Spoiler - they found racial prejudice. https://www.justice.gov/crt/file/883296/download "We find reasonable cause to believe that BPD engages in a pattern or practice of discriminatory policing against African Americans. Statistical evidence shows that the Department intrudes disproportionately upon the lives of African Americans at every stage of its enforcement activities. BPD officers disproportionately stop African Americans; search them more frequently during these stops; and arrest them at rates that significantly exceed relevant benchmarks for criminal activity. African Americans are likewise subjected more often to false arrests. Indeed, for each misdemeanor street offense that we examined, local prosecutors and booking officials dismissed a higher proportion of African-American arrests upon initial review compared to arrests of people from other racial backgrounds. BPD officers also disproportionately use forceincluding constitutionally excessive forceagainst African-American subjects. Nearly 90 percent of the excessive force incidents identified by the Justice Department review involve force used against African Americans." "There is overwhelming statistical evidence of racial disparities in BPDs stops, searches, and arrests. This evidence demonstrates a discriminatory impact on African Americans under Title VI and the Safe Streets Act."
  14. They are not just protesting police shootings. They are protesting police discrimination. It does exist. Here's a couple of investigations by the US department of Justice if you're interested - https://www.justice.gov/opa/file/925846/download https://www.justice.gov/crt/file/883296/download I am not going to argue any more as to the validity of their protests. But they have that right in this country. Why is a song more important to you than the actual constitution of the United States? That song doesn't give us any of the freedoms we love. But the constitution does. As far as his POW comments, it sure sounded like he was referring to more than just John McCain. Trump said "he's a war hero because he wa captured. I like people who weren't captured". And what in the world does that gold star family and soldier being of the Muslim religion have to do with anything? Trump attacks the family of a soldier who gave his life for the United States. Your showing your true colors with that Muslim comment... Of course Trump's attacks on true soldiers wouldn't bother you. But someone kneeling in protest of racial discrimination would, that is in no way attacking our soldiers or country. They are protesting specific issues, not the flag or military. But trump attacks military heroes and you have zero issue with that.
  15. Wow. Very well said. I wish I could have said it as eloquently as you... "snowflakes"... lol. (I hate that stupid word) But I have no idea why anyone would take offense to what the Pegula's said. I didn't find anything they said offensive in any way.
  16. Are you mad at trump for making these divisive comments that are causing all this backlash? Or is that fine because you agree with his point of view? Question, were you this mad at Trump for his comments disrespecting POW's and that gold star family? Those comments actually were direct insult to our veterans. But my guess is that those comments probably didn't bother you nearly as much as thinking about someone not standing for the anthem. Why is their opinion automatically wrong, BTW? Also, are you saying that that most everyone stands for the national anthem watching the game at home? I have never once done that or been around anyone who has, and I have watched a ton of Bills/Sabres games with tons of different people. They usually don't even show the anthem during Bills games. Now next time they play the anthem on tv I am going to picture you at home, standing with your hand on your heart, forcing everyone else there to do the same. Haha
  17. That was actually pretty damn funny. Thanks for sharing. But you forgot the part where after a few random tweets at canada he can't get them to pay for the stadium (which most everyone, including trump himself, knew would be the case), so he tries to pass the cost along to the taxpayers with promise that Canada will someday pay it back. My guess as to what would happen next... the taxpayers (and/or NYS) refuse to pay for "Trump-dome", a record breaking $14B stadium with a roof made of solid gold, he takes his team and goes home (home being wherever he could move the team that would be the most profitable for him).
  18. Why can't you just ignore it? You think the players should be able to ignore it and the comments were aimed directly at them, their fellow teammates and their place of employment. While none of this stuff has anything to do with you and you are still taking issue with it. You can't just ignore it yet you expect the players to do so. I know you will say "well it's their job" and I agree their job is to play football. But they are not prohibited at their job from expressing their viewpoint. Read all of the different owners who made statements today. Every one of them supported their players rights. They are allowed to feel however they want and express their opinion, just like you. They are also allowed to peacefully protest if they so choose. It is one of the rights our great constitution gives us. I agree though - take it out on the Broncos and win a damn football game!
  19. Not sure if this was posted yet, but here is Terry and Kim Pegula's statement on Trump's comments and the team netting about it - http://buffalonews.com/2017/09/23/terry-kim-pegula-trumps-remarks-divisive-disrespectful-entire-nfl-community/ Sounds like whatever the players decide to do, they have the owners support. I love that they seem to be trying to use this event to bring the team together instead of allowing it to divide them (per Pegula's comment)
  20. Good for them. I fully support the decision to do so. I just really hope they choose something besides taking a knee during the anthem. I'd rather they show a video like the Browns or do something before/after the anthem. As soon as you start protesting during the anthem, you are going to immediately make a segment of fans (not me) angry/hostile and they aren't going to listen to what you have to say. It's probably going to make Trump supporters angry no matter how they choose to protest this, but that's beside the point...
  21. Lol. I can definitely see that happening.
