Lemon is the biggest blow hard racist out there. Truly the most divisive “ journalist” I can think of.

I’ll agree with this. I don’t believe the same could be said if he claimed to be catholic. Anyway, it’s complicated. I voted for Trump ( and almost certainly will again) , but I’d vote for an atheist before I’d vote for a Christian , Catholic or a Democrat. Not exclusively for that reason, though.

Chiefs vs Saints

And that’s the problem with letting everyone in so easily. They have a sense of entitlement, and don’t want to assimilate. If it continues unabated , pretty soon you don’t have a country anymore. This is something that should concern all native born Americans, not just Trump supporters. It’s a real threat, as today’s immigrants are not the same as our great grandparents were.

Ravens having trouble selling tickets to opener
Boatdrinks replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It’s a good question. I believe secondary market resale has been very low for 2 years now. Many season ticket buyers were subsiding their own season tickets by purchasing extras and reselling them. Perhaps this is finally impacting the box office. I’ve always questioned if the blackout had much effect , and I still don’t believe it did. Going to a game is just a different experience from watching on TV. Bills fans like to consider themselves among the most rabid fan bases in the league, but the skimpy sales suggest otherwise. Especially with the average ticket price near the bottom of the league. Perhaps complacency has set in under the Pegulas ownership, with the franchise seemingly secure for the foreseeable future. Who knows ? it’s worth pondering. -
DirecTv Sunday Ticket- Potential big issues
Boatdrinks replied to Walking Tall's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
These are retransmission agreements with local affiliates, similar to what a cable company would have with them. The worst case scenario IF no agreement is reached ( unlikely imo) is that you would need a Leaf ( or similar) antenna to receive those channels. However, it will not affect your Sunday Ticket package as those are out of market games only. Not a big deal and just a lot of posturing by local affiliates to squeeze the best deal out of DirecTV. -
NFL Network Top 100 Players - total snub?
Boatdrinks replied to Charles Romes's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I’ll agree with this. While these guys have internal motivation, I believe they constantly seek out external sources as well. It’s the way they stay on top. -
NFL Network Top 100 Players - total snub?
Boatdrinks replied to Charles Romes's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I wouldn’t , as it is a league network and that type of coverage is always available locally. -
NFL Network Top 100 Players - total snub?
Boatdrinks replied to Charles Romes's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I actually like the show and it’s hosts for the most part. My tolerance level for Pats coverage is low, so it colors my overall impressions. Most times, I switch the channel and come back to it. I don’t expect a ton of Bills related discussion, but they do put more out there than say NFL live on ESPN. Yes, and a LOT is an understatement. Regardless of their success ( and the fact that most football fans despise them outside of Boston) it is the NFL network. There are 31 other teams in the league and their focus on that one team is obsessive. Besides, their collective opinion is always something like “ event or injury X doesn’t matter, because we’ll its the Patriots” and the HC ( and by extension the players) are notoriously boring and mundane in interviews. So what’s to discuss ? -

Boatdrinks replied to Charles Romes's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I disagree. Yeah the GMFB crew gives the occasional shoutout to Bills mafia and whatever, but they’re just throwing a bone to the faithful.They quickly move on. Their obsession with the Patriots et al is undeniable to anyone watching for more than about 15 minutes. -
NFL Network Top 100 Players - total snub?
Boatdrinks replied to Charles Romes's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Again, the list is silly NFLN hype. I’d say most are aware it’s a player vote, ( so is the pro bowl, in part) but that often becomes a popularity contest. Players vote for their friends, those in contract years etc. The Bills are an afterthought on that network, and around the league in many ways. Bottom line, the list doesn’t mean much. -

Just silly NFLN hype. The Bills are afterthought in every aspect with their coverage. Doesn’t mean a thing. -
Bills Training Camp: Day 4 - 7/28
Boatdrinks replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think the Bills believe they know what they have in Nsekhe, as he has a lot of experience. They might want to get a good look at what Ford can do, especially early on. While Nsekhe has obvious value as a backup/ swing player , I wouldn’t close the book on him emerging as one of the starting 5 OL at all. -
Iirc, he had a few disagreements with some high profile posters at the time and it escalated from there. Not sure of the specifics

What nonsense. Where did I state that Clinton did not get more votes ? Massive Russian interference ? How many Russians voted in the election ? How many votes were changed by Russians? Oh that’s right, zero. Face it , the election was a referendum on Clinton and caused by disdain for her and the lefts policies.

So pretty much Hillary slayed it in California, not so much anywhere else. That fact speaks volumes, yet the libs go on with their drivel about the electoral college.... And that’s exactly what the Dems want. Lawlessness and violence.. neuter the Cops and let the crims out of jail , do away with bail,while you’re at it. “ restorative justice “ scary stuff. Just awful...

Tom Brady : Not winning Father Of The Year
Boatdrinks replied to Just Jack's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don’t care if he never wins father of the year. As long as he doesn’t win any more playoff games or Superbowls. -
Likewise. The greater point of my analysis was not to discredit, but rather to state that the matchup between the NYG offense and the Bills defense had a much greater impact on the outcome of the game. Far more than the much ballyhooed B.B. led defense vs the Bills offense. In fact, the Bills offense produced exactly the same amount of points that it did in their victory over the Giants in NY several weeks prior. The defense, however was a different story. It was telling that Parcells stated “ power football wins” and cited the soft middle of the Bills D line when exalting in the win immediately after the game.

Hmmm. The Trump thing is one of the few I actually like about Brady. -
Socialism fails every time
Boatdrinks replied to BeginnersMind's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Children are expensive. There’s probably a lot of folks for whom children are a fiscally irresponsible proposition. They have them anyway. Of course , the liberal view will be that they need / deserve help from the tax dollars of others.
