Logic

Respectfully, have you taken ayahuasca?

Ayahausca (and other hallucinogens) can have the tendency to either show you exactly who you are without pulling any punches, or shatter your ego and lay bare the trappings of materialism and one's cultivated identity, or both. For a guy with some domestic abuse allegations against him and with an ego and a cultivated identity as strong as Miller's, I could see things being...rather terrifying.

I gotta be honest. I have yet to have a great Buffalo pizza (have had some good ones, but nothing that knocked my socks off), and there is no food I love more in the world than pizza, so I've been BEGGING someone to tell me definitively where I oughta go to get a great one. Is Bocce the #1 answer?

THAT'S 2023 NFL COMEBACK PLAYER OF THE YEAR JOE FLACCO TO YOU, PAL!

With the 17th pick in the 2025 TSW Mock Draft, the Cincinnati Bengals select Mike Green, EDGE, Marshall The Bengals need A LOT of help on defense, and there's no better place to start than up front. Aside from Trey Hendrickson -- with whom the Bengals still have not reached a contract extension -- the cupboard is pretty bare at edge. Enter Mike Green. Green led the nation in sacks with 17 and had an eye-popping 23 tackles for loss. He's explosive, twitchy, has great burst and body control, understands leverage from his background as a wrestler, and he sets the edge with purpose. The Bengals sent scouts to Marshall's pro day and have been sniffing around Green throughout the draft process. We view him as a top 10 talent and a great value at 17. The primary reason he slipped as far as he did is character concerns. Regarding that, Dane Brugler reports that Green has received "strong character feedback from coaches at Virginia and Marshall", with Marshal coach Charles Huff saying he’s “the most humble human being” you will ever meet. We did extensive work on him and feel comfortable with his character. Certainly any risk is mitigated by his tremendous, explosive upside. @GunnerBill and the Seahawks (or whomever they've traded with) are now on the clock.

Hey @Virgil I’m a west coaster and I went on the clock at about 4am my time. If I can kindly appeal to you for an extra hour, I’d be quite grateful. Thanks 😊

Its gotta be absolutely WILD to be as universally despised as Deshaun Watson is. I've never seen someone rupture their Achilles and have everyone universally shrugging and saying "couldn't have happened to a nicer guy". I suppose that's what happens when you're a serial sex offender and an arrogant schmohawk. Reap what you sow, ***** around and find out, etc, etc.

Have you had any of the crazy varieties of Macy's Pizza? You know the ones. Because I gotta tell ya, I see them on social media from time to time and I have never wanted to eat anything more in my life. But do they just LOOK good, or are they ACTUALLY good?

Pontillo's was also the creme de la creme when I was a kid. Nothing more exciting than a Pontillo's sheet pizza and a dozen wings showing up at your front door...back in the day when pizza places actually had delivery drivers rather than outsourcing to DoorDash, GrubHub, etc. I think SOME of the Pontillo's locations still make great pies these days. Not all of them. Quality varies from location to location.

Be prepared for the Bills to draft a linebacker and to potentially do so earlier than you'd like.

I'm biased because I grew up in Rochester, but... ...so far as I can tell, Rochester DOES have better pizza than Buffalo! Y'all got everyone beat on wings, beef on weck, pizza logs. But pizza? I'm sorry. Give me Rochester. Miss me with that too-thick crust and overly sweet sauce

As much as I'd love to add an elite WR1 who could also play key 3rd downs at corner... I don't think there's any universe where the Bills have the ammo or desire or ability to trade from 30 all the way up to 3. It seems ESPECIALLY ill-advised given their additional needs on the DL, at CB, and S. If I thought it could reasonably be accomplished, I'd be all for it, but I just can't imagine it being done, nor can I imagine Beane even considering it.

The amount of times this gets asked in the games my wife and I play with our fellow euchre loving couple is beyond count. We tend to play while imbibing an adult beverage or two and otherwise being social, so strict and unwavering recollection of trump -- let alone strategically keeping mental track of what cards other players likely have in their hands based on those played already -- tends to go out the window.

NO CROSSBOARDING, MOTHERFU%$ER! I will cut a b!tch.

I hate the Chiefs like poison, so if no one ends up taking them....sign me up. Get inside the mind of the enemy. Destroy from within.

**Looks over at Kaiir Elam and then looks over at all the mock drafts showing a first round corner for Buffalo, weeps**

Never heard of the version in the first bolded. Interesting. As for the second bolded. This is just madness, man. MADNESS!! Always love learning new "house rules" or rules variations. thanks for sharing.

It's kind of weird that the Bills have had multiple very good corners where the best parts of those corners' careers came when they weren't Buffalo Bills. Stephon Gilmore Nate Clements Antoine Winfield All very good. All had their best years after leaving the Bills. We used to be the NFL's farm team. Letting rookies get their NFL seasoning for four or five years before watching them move on to relevant teams. Thank God those days are over.

Please let anyone who didn't get a crack at the first mock draft go ahead of me. But if you have any teams left that need filling, I'll happily take one. Thanks, @Virgil

So I grew up in Rochester watching my parents and our next door neighbors play euchre every weekend. Once I got old enough, I learned the game and loved it. Fast forward to today, I live on the west coast. My wife and I have found one other couple (also from the east coast) that knows the game. Our regular euchre partners. Most people, however, have no idea what the hell I'm talking about when I bring it up. Is euchre regional? The only people I ever meet that seem to have even ever heard of it are from western New York or the midwest.

Well, I count DaQuan Jones Ed Oliver DeWayne Carter Larry Ogunjobi Zion Logue at DT. Granted, Ogunjobi is suspended for the first six weeks. But I could see Beane envisioning the position as only needing further depth, whereas CB2 requires a starting caliber player. Either way, I think you and I are on the same page: Would prefer that DL be prioritized over CB.

Yeah I certainly would rather spend our most premium pick on a defensive lineman than a corner, but Beane's draft history combined with the gaping hole at CB2 and the existing DL depth chart leads me to believe he's going corner first. I wish I could say he wasn't that predictable with his round one pick, but his drafting history in the early rounds would suggest otherwise.

I could be wrong, but it sure seems like the Bills are doing a lot of work on DTs that are more likely to be day 2 and 3 selections. If I had to guess right now, I'd bet on a round 1 corner, and two 2nd round defenders (DT and S or DT and Edge), with -- hopefully -- a speedy WR of some sort coming in round 4 or 5.

It always cracks me up when the topic of "how many passes do you think you could complete in an NFL game?" or something similar comes up. The level of delusion of most people who respond kills me. We saw an actual non-QB NFL athlete, Kendall Hinton, have to fill in at QB during the COVID season. And how did he do? 1/9 for 13 yards, with 2 interceptions. And that's an NFL athlete! So when Antony D'Ambrosio from the Northtowns swears he could complete three passes in an NFL game, all I can do is laugh. We've seen things like the replacement players games from the 80s strike years, or even all-Spring League players get their shot in the NFL and get absolutely smoked. I used to love the show "Pros Vs Joes" when it briefly aired, because it showed just how massive this gulf between average people and athletes really is. Most people have no idea.

The night game typically doesn't feature the Cowboys or Lions. It's just something random. I could totally see Bills-Dolphins being a Thanksgiving night game.
