  1. tv are one of the technologies that i will not run out and buy when the newest thing comes out. after 6 months the price always drops significantly, and something slightly better comes out.
  2. the keeping kids back thing for sports reasons has become huge around here. i hear it regularly, and i'm in agreement....i would never do that. if my kids were a bit behind socially or academically, sure. for sports...come on. these early stages for sports should really about team/character building, learning the sport, and fun.
  3. yup. my understanding is that it's the very regular small hits to the head that linemen take on every play that greatly add to CTE...not just one big jarring hit.
  4. i don't have recipes, but buffalo style cauliflower is amazing. this summer i had buffalo chicken fusilli at a place in the thousand islands, and it was amazing. a bit too rich, but very good.
  5. so? every year a team is picked to win the sb. sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. it takes a lot to win the big game, and as far as i know, the playoffs haven't even started yet. did the giants have a chance the year they beat the undefeated pats? nope, and yet here we are. the playoffs are an entirely different season. you just have to let it play out, but to call this season a "nightmare" is just as unreasonable as knowing the outcome of a game after 2.5 series.
  6. because a lot happens in a game. what if the bills held the cincy to 3, and the bills score on the next drive. even if cincy scored, what if buffalo went on the next drive to score a td? it's a 4 point game early on. see how that works?
  7. yeah...it's hard to have won 12 games so far and call this season a "nightmare", (at least until monday). the season has been imperfect, but some are acting like this team didn't make the playoffs.
  8. they didn't even complete 3 series. how anyone can say this reasonably is shocking to me.
  9. but how often does it work out that way? the dads i'm aware of aren't from any specific pedigree of athlete. i think they're more likely to groom resentment than athletes. making a 6 year old watch their weight? no way.
  10. i have some staff that have gotten their kids into wrestling, and holy smokes some of those dads seem far too intense. i've heard stories of guys making their kids run laps, practice after practice, and have mats in their homes for extended practice. mind you we're talking about 5-6 year olds. multiple stories of monitoring what these kids eat to keep weight down, etc. i have no idea what's in it for the dads. i've never met a grate high school athlete and thought, "wow, that dad is impressive".
  11. we all know the guys are going through a lot right now. there was an interesting point made either on the nation or local radio that came from a nurse. to see someone, "coding" and seeing the attempt to revive that person can be very traumatizing, especially if it's someone you are concerned about. years ago when i started working, i saw a crash team try to revive a man in an emergency room, and it didn't work. I specifically remember seeing the color drain from the mans body, and their decision to stop trying to save him. it was the first time i had ever seen that, and it was overwhelming. i can't imagine where their heads are right now.
  12. What happened on Monday certainly took the wind of the sails for me as a fan. I’ve always been good about not getting upset about the bills because it’s only a game, but Monday was tough. All of that being said, I don’t think it would be too hard to draw me back in.
  13. Sure. My son is 4 and want to play. I still think at the younger ages, the risk is very minimal. I can’t imagine he’ll play football beyond high school if he even wants to go that far. Up to him.
  14. i have zero idea what this is lost on some.
  15. some posters want the coaches fired every single game.
  16. just look who they are. does that shock you at all?
  17. and your facts prove nothing. is it fun for you to always be that guy?
  18. it was on the 3rd series for god's sake.
  19. you knew there were going to have a handful of posters who were going to take this angle. pretty predictable.
  20. We’re nearing an all time low here.
  21. Yes. I think Cincy is happy about their wins the past few weeks. Very happy. Without them, they’re not fighting for the one seed
  22. Yes. And saviorpeterman and highfootballiq. Saying that twitter handle isn’t his might be a new low.
  23. He’s something special.
  24. He’s right. Tonight, a win is a win. Especially against one the the best teams in the nfl. Who would possibly be upset about a one point win? No one reasonable.
