  1. Any coach that instructs his team to fumble the oddly shaped leather ball that bounces unpredictably out of bounds at the one yard line when going down should be fired on the spot. It's a weak argument.
  2. If we're going by presidential endorsements of boycotts as the standard then you can't ignore Biden's predecessor. Trump as president asked Americans to boycott Nike, Goodyear, Harley Davidson, AT&T, and the NFL. Is that an excuse for Biden? No. Acting like it's something unique to the left is disingenuous though.
  3. Maybe a 2nd if they're lucky as he's still 29 and a desperate team may pick up the phone (BEARS). He is only one 29 and one blown double digit 4th quarter lead away from three Super Bowl wins.
  4. Not surprising really considering we used to carry two kickers under the old regime and thought dropping Dareus and Williams back into coverage was a good idea.
  5. That's Tre White so it couldn't have been 2016. It was the beginning of the brutal stretch in the middle of 2017 where we were embarrassed by Josh McCown. It was also the game I finally concluded Tyrod would never be the answer.
  6. I wish we wore white facemasks to offset the horrible red on red for that game. Jets unis were the best they ever looked.
  7. Didn't know that but the NBA jumped the shark a long time ago.
  8. Wow. That's unprecedented as I don't ever remember a major league sport punishing a city whose state passed some sort of voting law. I'm not a fan of certain aspects of the bill but there's nothing too egregious in it to warrant this type of move. On a side note .... they were supposed to celebrate the life of Hank Aaron. Maybe they'll have it in Milwaukee now.
  9. On the BBMB they had a signature section where I just included the disclaimer... *All comments made are based on my opinion and my opinion alone and should not be taken seriously by anybody.
  10. That's a decent rebuttal in my opinion or whatever.
  11. The most important thing he did was before the election in defeating the Sanders/Warren wing of the party. There's also a massive vaccination effort and the US is doing better than most European countries and you see the jobs/businesses impacted most by the pandemic coming back. I'll let you guys debate on what administration is more responsible for that. Businesses not having to worry about trade wars also helps. Education hiring boomed this month thanks in large part to the relief bill as districts know they're getting needed funding now.
  12. Nope. They were always gray face masks since switching over to the white helmets (minus the Cowboys and 49ers games). They now have a stormtrooper look to them.
  13. Probably. I know it wouldn’t be called Highmark stadium. That’s for sure.
  14. Don't fumble the ball by stretching for the pylon. I kind of like the high risk/high reward type play there.
  15. Some thoughts: -The obsession with making the onsides kick easier is annoying to me. You played poor enough to be down double digits late in the 4th and it should be a miracle for you to come back. -Two preseason games (one at home, one away) along with a couple of scrimmages with other teams should be more than enough. -The more replay expands the more frustrating and confusing it gets. I'm not a fan of the "replay officials" (really sky judges) type proposal they're putting out there. It just puts more on the coach on what to and what not to challenge.
  16. I really just want to give a franchise to Trump and reinstate his twitter account. That would be insanely fun.
  17. Not sure the Washington Post is an upgrade.
  18. Because it makes the players and coaches they employ more money.
  19. Whatever keeps the team in Buffalo. I'd prefer a dome right next to where the stadium is now (preserves tailgating) as I've become less weather tolerant over the years. Plus, I prefer optimal weather in every game so the more talented team that executes the best wins. Something tells me they'll go with the cheapest option though and renovate the current stadium like they did Lambeau and Arrowhead.
  20. I made this mistake during the OJ trial.
  21. I vaguely remember Jim Turner being high on him going into last year saying he plays with a lot of heart, was a hard worker, etc.. He could win the Ty Nyseche roster spot.
  22. No. Airlines/hotels/restaurants/cruise lines that were able to weather the storm of the pandemic. The pent up demand for these will be off the charts. I plan on dumping them by the end of the year as most are either properly valued or overvalued right now. If you bought them in April though you made a killing as the vaccine came out quicker than the market originally priced in. I agree with @All_Pro_Billsthough and we won't see a long term post covid economic boom out of this.
  23. Yeah. Me neither. I just always figured it was due to the end of the War. People are going to go nuts after being cooped up inside for a year or so. I've been buying cyclical stocks at every dip since the pfizer vaccine was approved.
  24. I’m sure prohibition followed by a Great Depression is just what this country needs.
  25. My mistake. I meant Leatherwood from Bama. I hate both schools equally.
