  1. Gaga was strong last year, but watching Metallica in concert right now is as close to watching Nickelback as it gets. So unimpressed by what they have become. I know Hetfield would have to eventually get older, but why did he become so soft?
  2. That stat is 100% accurate. The other 39% of the time the D was getting scored on. How could we possibly be better than that? Rex in-effect-ual.
  3. No surprise here. He has been excellent for the vast majority of the time. Great to see the recognition!
  4. Based on the knowledge of Peterman garnered from this board, he would have assuredly doubled that mark.
  5. You have a better chance of getting killed by a natural-born 4th generation American than you do an immigrant. Terrorism has many forms, though looking at today's political "leadership " , you would assume it is something solely undertaken by Muslims and Muslim sympathizers from the "left". This is a sad and horrible thing, done by a vile and broken human being. However, we cannot allow for further division and dis-trust to overtake America. What a sad and broken country todays USA is. If this is"MAGA", I'd hate to thinkof what isto come.
  6. Did you watch/ listen to Skip and Shannon yesterday? Shannon Sharpe nailed it. This is not the protest the owners want the players to think it is, it's a protest against Trump telling the owners what to do. It's a financial protest. If it were truly a protest for unity and inclusion, why wouldn't thishave happened around so many other more truly important events and controversial statements and actions by Trump. The true stupidity of this protest is that it serves solely to create even further discord and division. If the NFL WAS SMART, everyone would have stood with arms locked together, showing both solidarity and respect.
  7. That is how you read it and not what he stated at the time, but what was placed in a follow-up press release. Trump really has zero ability to consider his statements while he's making them. You can support him all you like, and I will never comprehend how someone can, but you cannot honestly believe that he is articulate, well-spoken or considerate of his words. Should a leader of a world power not at least provide these three attributes?
  8. That's okay. I'm actually trying to reduce my work load these days.
  9. While this is very true, should we not hold the president to a higher standard than others? It seems that the standard for which America tolerates political leaders and their level of communication just fell out of the sky the day Trump was elected. You may not have liked Obama, Bush, Clinton, Bush etc., but they each were able to filter personal sentiment for the betterment of the whole.
  10. How many of us have a national platform with which our protest can possibly bring attention to our cause? If I could start my work day once a week with an email to all of my clients explaining how I detest the president and all that he stands for, and I actually felt it would make an ounce of difference, I'd be on that. I don't like that the anthem has been chosen as the platform for this protest as there are so many things for which it stands that deserve respect, but today's America is a divided nation and so many of the NFL's players stand on the opposite side of it from the president. Having a president that openly states that a Nazi flag-carrying, gun-toting, anti-semetic chanting group of marchers has many good people in it is surely not invoking confidence in a group largely consisting of black and hispanic males.
  11. Nail on the head for me. I have shirts, hats and jackets with both, but for everyday wear I am a standing Buffalo guy. Gameday is either, but often charging Buffalo jacket and shirt under jersey. Jersey is always throwback. I even rocked the OJ week 1. That was a thrift store find in the late 90's I couldn't pass up but never wore.
  12. That's a long limb. Jax has playoff aspirations and without Robinson, Hurns is the definite WR1. Marquise and Jaelen are not going to cause any D Coordinators sleep loss.
  13. Thank God for fantasy football. At least we get points there.
  14. My first thought when I saw that they had signed Poyer was " A Cleveland Browns DB coming off a write-off season?!". Apparently that was a stupid thought. He has been excellent in the first two games. This safety tandem is legit.
  15. Totally. Klay is the guy for sure. More of a comment regarding a hypothetical injury situation.
  16. Is it just me or does anyone else hate it when a high caliber/ much-needed rotation player takes punts or kick-offs? Can you imagine if Hyde got hurt taking a punt return? Tate and Klay are good players, but afterthoughts on the offensive side of the ball and, as such, far more expendable.
  17. Agreed. It was a nice build with the supercharger dropped in, the lift and the wheels, but it kinda missed the mark on the interior he was hoping for it seemed. Regardless, very happy for him. Seemed like a great guy doing great things to help his fellow veterans. Always great to see a vet recognized for their sacrifice and appreciated.
  18. From your keyboard to God's ears.
  19. "I told Bill cheating was the only way. Why does he try and play fair the first game of the year? Why not let the scrubs do that in week 17?"
  20. The Bills are going for quality over quantity? I like the starters and Wright is not the worst back-up in the league, but I still worry about cutting a guy like Mabin who was a solid system fit and showed a nose for the ball in the PS. Hopefully we see him on the practice squad and can call on him if someone goes down.
  21. This ties into the posts in regards to tailgating. If the stands are a sanitized, family friendly locale, then the party crowd, of which we have an abundance, is in no rush to get inside for the game. I've gone to Bills games in 4 decades now and the change has been remarkable in the last 5 years. Perhaps it coincided with that jackass sliding down the railing on the top deck?
  22. Is this practice squad? Who are they looking at replacing off the roster?
  23. This has been my take on the matter as well. He quit on the team when we were seeing some improvements on key facets of the game and had the most hope for ending the drought. I don't forgive him for that or that it lead to us being subjected to two years of Rex.
