Well. A big number of those people already swung Democrat in the 2018 election. Call a spade a spade. It's not like Trump is hiding his racism. It's pretty goddamn obvious at this point even as he denies it and brilliantly (I'll give him that) calls anyone who calls him a racist a racist so dimwits in this country aren't focused on him. Trump clearly views the American Public as goldfish, attention wise. That might be the sole brilliance of the guy. You folks over here can dismiss his racism because of what he's "accomplished" if you want, but it's pretty clear he's a racist.

Sounds very similar to what got Trump into office. We good then Doesn't that guy have a job of some sort?

Thank you. Probably a good idea to put it in the OP so he doesn't need to answer it again.

https://theathletic.com/1104285/2019/07/29/through-four-days-of-bills-camp-thoughts-and-analysis-on-all-91-players/ Wide receiver If the first four days are any indication, Brown and Beasley will be front and center of the Bills’ passing attack in 2019. Brown has already shown off his deep-route ability to beat the defender, track the ball over his shoulder and complete the catch. It’s his intermediate route running to the sidelines, however, that’s largely underrated. The route complements Allen’s arm strength just as much as the deep ball. The early signs for this connection are all positive. As for Beasley’s footwork and route set-up are, I can recall only one Bills receiver in recent memory who was as agile: Stevie Johnson. Beasley reads the defender much like a ball-handler in basketball when trying to set up a crossover. It took a few misfires through the first two days, but Allen and Beasley got on the same page in a big way when the pads went on over the weekend. On Sunday, it resulted in six receptions on 17 pass attempts. Zay Jones and Robert Foster have their work cut out for them if they want to be prolific pieces of this offense. Outside of an early red-zone catch and coaches vocally admiring his route-running, Jones has been mostly silent. Despite the lack of targets, Jones has been working primarily with the first-team offense. The former second-round pick also sat out of team drills Sunday for an undisclosed reason and was spotted speaking with members of the medical staff after practice. Foster has been working mostly with the second unit as Brown’s primary backup. Although Foster is considerably taller than Brown, they have similar skill sets, and the second-year player has flocked to the veteran as a mentor. Through four days, Foster is firmly the fourth wide receiver. Andre Roberts has worked on both the inside and outside of the formation. Along with his returning duties, he seems entrenched as the fifth receiver on the depth chart. The battle for the sixth spot starts with slot man Ray-Ray McCloud. The 2018 sixth-round pick returned to Buffalo with a more chiseled physique and it’s showed so far in on-field results. Victor Bolden Jr. had a strong spring but has since disappeared, working behind both Brown and Foster. Cam Phillips, as he did last summer, has made some flashy plays that have created more opportunities for him — including time with the first unit in Jones’ normal spot on Sunday. Undrafted slot receiver Nick Easley has also provided some spark with the third-team offense. Isaiah McKenzie, Duke Williams and David Sills V have all faded into the background at camp.

Are you basing this on attending all the Training Camp practices and watching yourself or reading tweets and Training Camp reports?

The bolded was my point exactly

Taken from Astro's notes... notice how many times Foster's name show up... there's a reason for that: Here are combinations used by Daboll on the ensuing plays with Josh. It shows the imagination and attention to detail, variety, and diagnostic work put in by the coaches. ->Brown, Beasley, Cam Phillips ->Foster, Zay, Beasley ->Brown, Zay, Beasley with Singletary ->Foster, Zay, Brown ->Foster, Beasley, McKenzie with Singletary ->Foster, Gore, DiMarco, Zay ->Foster, Zay, McKenzie

Foster will be on the team opening day. The Bills coaches and Beane know what he can do and have seen him do it, they aren't cutting him. Is that really in doubt? There's a long game at play here with the underachieving uber-talented WR. It'd be different if he didn't have such an explosive 2nd half of the season last year--his rookie year--but he did, so the coaches are just working their/his butt off to align head/attitude/effort/focus with talent.

I really think they're handling the Foster situation in the manner they think will maximize his effort and output for the team long term. Daboll knows Foster very well having worked with him at 'Bama. He saw what didn't work with the kid. Honest question: did anyone really think it was Foster who deserved the last WR spot on our roster last year based on effort and production in training camp or preseason? I thought Foster would make the roster last year because of his connection with Daboll. Then we all saw what happened when they cut him and brought him back. Daboll knows how extremely talented the kid is and doesn't want to see it wasted. Foster has some maturity issues he clearly needs to grow out of a bit, and I'm sure McDermott and Daboll are using all of this to get in his head and expedite the maturation process. Now, I'm not saying that starting Brown over him is part of that because Brown has clearly been a monster and it'd take a lot at this point to unseat him as the #1 WR. However, on a day when Zay doesn't participate and instead of Foster, Cam Phillips is inserted, I'm sure a big part of that was to tell Foster it's time to get in gear in terms of attitude, because from the tweets and TC reports I've been reading, the issue with Foster right now isn't in his play, but is his head and attitude.

Well... If most of this thread and all the reports are yin, you're definitely yang.

Nah. Your twisting of my own narrative here is actually on you. Don't worry, I know this is what you guys do over here. Exonerated Trump? Trump was NOT exonerated, literally the wording of the guy who investigated Trump. And if you think that Trump shouldn't continue to be under scrutiny for, among other things, consciously undermining the 2016 election under the campaign finance reform statutes, that's another thing on you. Wait... so now you know exactly what the agencies told him about what The Russians were doing in terms of meddling when they met with Trump--and I know you're aware that they did in fact meet with him to warn about Russian meddling--AND you also know what Trump was thinking that moment he asked publicly for the emails, which were released quickly thereafter? Your God complex is on you. Trump's approval rating is and has been pretty steady actually and it's consistently been lower throughout his presidency than any other President since Jimmy Carter. I wouldn't be bragging about a 43.1% approval rating among likely registered voters. If you think that's a sign the country's coming around on him, that's on you. "Not one vote will NEVER be affected..." Intentional or Freudian slip? Not one Democratic candidate stands a chance? We can make a friendly wager if you want. But if you're just here to puff out your chest while making empty definitive proclamations, that's on you. So do you.

Considering the widespread findings are that, in fact, Russia "tried to" but did not directly influence a single vote, seems Obama's off the hook. Trump's still on the hook and, as we learned from Mueller the other day, is likely still under a counterintelligence investigation. Forgive the fact that anyone might be critical of a guy who is directly warned by multiple US intelligence agencies that Russia is directly meddling in the current election he's participating in and then goes out and says, "Russia, if you're listening, we'd love those emails!" There are very good reasons the majority of this country loathes Trump. I will give him this, he's probably giving the country the most serious evaluation of whether our electoral college is outdated or not. If he happens to win in 2020 (I doubt he will, but after 2016, who knows? Russians and others will still meddle afterall), then I suspect that the American voting system as we know it would have a lifespan of a decade at most.

Oh, that was your attempt to insult me? Living rent free... is this some brand new insult or something? Never heard it... and I'm interacting with 15-18 year olds all year. Weird if you (or Shady, for that matter) think that's an insult considering how much you seem to bring me up and @ me. Makes sense you wouldn't see the irony, though. Thinking much about posters on an Internet Message board? Yah, not me. How much have I even been here this Summer? The very little time I've poked my head in have been to post some offseason relevant stuff. And seeing you and Shady get all hot and bothered is just some added fun.

I wish. Own a home and pay a steep mortgage. Paradise tax.

Season 3 was excellent! Hopper clearly, to me, is still alive. Dug the incorporation of the Neverending Story theme song and how the director filmed that scene. My biggest complaint is how dark it was through a lot of the season. I had to adjust the settings on my TV so I could see at certain times.

No. We're winning 10+ games and going to the playoffs. It shall be.

Gee, I'm sorry. Not all of us here are trying to fill the void left by 26CB's departure that you seem to feel you've filled by breaking news with a new thread a day... way to break that news on how the Bills are hosting Kid's Day on August 18th... you're a top notch news breaker Sorry bro, we're still waiting for the regular season and evidently this conversation is still intermittently happening. The fact that just seeing this thread irritates posters like you and @Foxx is just icing on the cake, baby.

Move to Hawai'i and you can wear rubbah slippaz everywhere every day. I'm going to a wedding this evening and I'll be wearing shorts, an Aloha shirt and my Brown Flojos. Granted, it's a beach wedding. Hell, when I got married I was wearing them, too. If this preoccupied people in WNY, glad I don't live there.

From Rochester. Live in Hawai'i. So... no.

Here are some pretty good indicators of a dropping completion percentage considering longer passes are inherently lower percentage passes:

Looks pretty accurate to me

Aren't negotiations inherently "Up and Down," anyway?

Allen is going to be better and last longer. Jackson is much more frail in his lower half whereas Allen is thick and trunky. And Jackson is not a natural passer. His delivery is just so awkward. True running back playing QB. He has a lot of work in the passing game to do than Allen. And I think Allen is the better runner, anyway.
