  1. Perfect time for me! That's 3:40 Hawaiian time and I'm on Spring Break so I can still surf in the morning with plenty of time to watch the game!
  2. Super courageous of him and glad he got sober and shared it. Crazy that it was that playoff loss that looks like it pushed him over the edge. No one can ever say he doesn't care about the game. And on top of being incredibly hot, his wife is also loving and supportive.
  3. So now they're just gifting $35 million annual contracts to completely unproven QBs????
  4. I think it's funny that every single time we resign one of our guys (Milano, DW, Mongo) the reaction is "WELP!!! There goes Free Agency!" Beane will sign some Free Agents... probably one fairly "big" one. Haven't you guys figured out he's a Wizard?
  5. What I love is that there's only one other ACC team in our bracket. Familiarity has never been Syracuse's friend in the tournament. Anyone know what time the game is on Friday?
  6. But I kept hearing that Milano, Williams and Feliciano were all leaving... so that was incorrect? Guess Beane pulled another rabbit out of his hat. And I guess he believes culture building and continuity with the right people is more important than playing Madden in Free Agency.
  7. Okay... so does Georgia Tech and Georgetown bids knock Syracuse out?
  8. I really hope you're right.
  9. This was awesome! It sure does make me wish September was here, though! As a note, this combined with resigning Milano yesterday I think really underscores the importance of keeping our own homegrown talent... especially when that talent fits in with Buffalo's culture. And just from watching Milano's interviews, you can really tell he's one of those that fits the Buffalo formula.
  10. Do you think they're in?
  11. And there ya go. Spending enough time here (and a brief time "over there") I've come to understand that when the publicized talking points come out, you're just ideologically entrenched in your own political viewpoint. 70% of the American public likes this bill and not a single Republican voted for it because they're just keepin down that path of obstructionism they've followed under Mitch McConnell. If they keep this up, they might not win back their seats in the midterm election as the minority party typically does.
  12. Rainy as hell... at least on the windward side where there's been some serious damage. Luckily wife and I live on the southwestern side of the island, where we've gotten plenty of rain, but we've been good as far as any damage or flooding. And how are things in Cali?
  13. You're silly. Your solution is probably for everyone to move away from urban areas and move to rural areas. And then when everyone moves to the rural areas you'll be the one complaining too many damn people moved to the rural areas and are ruining it. It's foolish and naive to think that an annual salary of $100k (and no, that's not what I make... that's just an example) means your wealthy in America no matter where you live. Plenty of people never leave the town/city where they're born and don't necessarily have a choice. That's especially true where I live where there's a geographical barrier to actually moving away... namely thousands of miles of ocean and nobody. So then you didn't understand that? Maybe you should educate yourself a little before blindly complaining about it.
  14. You understand that 330 million people aren't getting $1400 checks, right?
  15. But a difference is that interest rates are at historic lows right now, making that borrowing more feasible. $1.9 trillion today at 0-0.25% interest is not the same as $1.9 trillion at 1.25-1.5% interest. Plus.... ya know.... Pandemic with millions still unemployed and millions more who've dropped out of the workforce.
  16. My wife and I have a home we're paying a mortgage on for about half a million dollars and I guarantee we're not "above middle class." Using the national average of home value to determine classes is wildly simplistic.
  17. I don't think Syracuse is getting in regardless of what GT does. I hope they do.... just don't see it happening with them essentially all the way at the bottom of the bubble.
  18. Talk about continuity.... I love it! Anyone with running tabs on our cap space? I think Beane finds a way to make ONE splashy offseason FA signingt or trade.
  19. In McDermott's defense in particular, a player like Milano is hugely critical. And Milano's deal is a bargain for Buffalo. If this were a $13 or $14 million dollar deal, maybe you'd have a bit of an argument. The problem for you is that this is a good deal for a very good player. And while you're obsessed with stats, I prefer wins. This is similar to the argument in terms of complaints with Star Lotulelei. His impact on the game is not showing up on the stat sheet and I think this year everyone came to appreciate what he brought to the team as a player in 2019 because we saw how the team was without him. Again.... the team lost more games and gave up significantly more points and yards without Milano in the lineup. He matters a lot to this defense and resigning him at this price especially is a huge win for the Bills organization and Bills fans. If you aren't one of the latter, go back to your Patriots message board.
  20. Holy crap dude now you're crusading with your revisionist's history! The Bills were 3-3 with Milano out of the lineup and gave up an average of 30 points and just under 400 yards per game. By contrast, with Milano in the lineup the Bills were 12-1 and gave up an average of 20 points and 330 yards per game. If you're trolling, go away. If you really believe the crap you're spewing, go watch the impact he has on the games and the effect he has on the game even away from the ball.
  21. I think you're confusing "impact" with "stats." Milano is one of the most important players on defense and isn't the type of LB that's easily replaceable. Incredibly glad we resigned him
  22. This is FANTASTIC news!!! Milano has been one of Buffalo's most consistent players (when on the field... and yes, that's the issue) over the last few years and I think there was a case to be made that he was one of our best 2 defenders this past season. This move demonstrates that Beane and McDermott meant it when they said they wanted to keep their homegrown talent, which is precisely what Milano is. Love this move by the wizard Brandon Beane!!!
  23. Game is supposed to be on ESPN here but it's not. Is the game happening or was it delayed for some reason? EDIT: Forget it! ESPN 2
  24. By giving your Grandchildren money as directly as you can? Republican Presidents consistently run up our national debt more than our Democratic Presidents, yet Republicans claim to be the "Deficit Hawks." Why is that? I'm sorry but I just mosied back into PPP on a whim tonight and clearly made a mistake. This is just more confirmation that a disturbing minority of our voting population (though still very much a minority, to be clear) has made a bed ridden with crap, been offered a new bed, but is choosing to lie in it.
