Another Fan

This it does. Even last night I had a nightmare about my job.

https://www.slashfilm.com/1520220/office-space-box-office-bomb-cult-hit/ I was in high school went it came out. Being it was from the Beavis and Butthead creator yeah it looked and was funny at the time. When I actually started working though in an office it felt more like a documentary. Nit picking at passive aggressive managers, too many managers, annoying habits of co workers, and oh yeah that unreliable copier. It’s definitely in my top 10 films of all time. The only thing I’d say a little against it is some of the technology seems a little dated today (ex: floppy disks). Still it’s an all time iconic movie worth celebrating

I remember in 2012 after losing to the Rams and Seahawks back to back fans were calling in WGR being nostalgic about 2004 in that at least there was meaningful December football games played. Losing to the Chiefs sucks and it felt even worse for me last year than 13 seconds..... that being said I always try to remind myself of those days in 2012 and not take this current team for granted.

Yeah I'd say the Stevie catch was acrobatic/impressive on its own but this was the bigger play. Earlier in this thread I posted people now forget how frustrating as a QB Fitz was. Because on like the next play or two he threw an INT after that Stevie catch!

This is the most acrobatic catch by a Bills receiver I recall

When I think of Bucks I still think of Glenn Big Dog Robinson and Step by Step references 😅. When Cleveland made it to the finals in 2016 I got interested in them a little like that. It's cool that they seem to have a good team this year but they still dont interest me. Yeah my think in the NBA this year is Detroit. I always had the image in my head of them as a solid team/franchise.

While I agree with your sentiments his age now I think has to be at least a factor. Even Marv called it quits coaching in his early 70s before this youth movement with head coaches.

I never even played sports in high school but even before then most coaches I had were on the intense side. I don’t see how this is much of a story. Anyway if they are doing an Apple documentary on this the juicy stuff is put out there as bait.

For me personally the 2012 season was the year the team came furthest away from matching my preseason expectations. And not in a good way!

The Jets are by far the worst in point deferential per that graph. The team plays them twice a year

I remember in middle school I'd get home from school and Top Cops reruns would come on. Stories of police officers narrating reenactments of some stressful or life or death situations they got in. The show was on a few years in the early 90s. I know I enjoyed it and it actually did at the time make me think of police officers as benevolent figures. I finally re-found some clips of this series on Youtube and was expecting to find it ultra cheesy/preachy. But I was surprised the stories seem to hold up well. This one about the McMullin brothers is good stuff. Different world then Anyone have any others?

I think this really depends on a person's age. I was in high school in the 1990s and 2000s and the idea we must go to college was really pushed hard I thought on our generation. Like you won't be successful in life without it. And yeah at 17 I wasn't exactly the best long term planner. So in that sense I have sympathy for kids that racked up the debt. But I hear what you're saying. It seems less and less boys these days go to college for this and other reasons imo. Understanding debt accumulation is one of them.

The ambulance with Bills Mafia written on it that comes on the field looks kinda tacky

To me that’s a fair take. I would say overall Fitz and Tyrod were about the same quality QB during their Bills years. Tyrod to me had a better supporting cast than Fitz though. But yeah the worshiping Fitz and Tyrod having what seems like a negative stigma around him seems a bit unfair

I'm still waiting for my autograph back after writing to Jim Kelly saying I still loved him even though he lost in the Super Bowl 😅

Good topic OP Double edged sword to me : on the one hand the QB's are protected now more than ever and the increased awareness of health and nutrition can prolong their careers. On the other hand it seems like the learning curve for younger QB's is now gone or at least not what it was. I can definitely see back up QB's playing well into their 40s. Tyrod comes to mind

I appreciate Fitz's personality, his Bills fandom, and him trying to make it work when he was a Bill. But I mean it's hard for me to look the other way he really wasn't that good once he got his big contract. His stats looked respectable because his TD's came mostly in garbage time. He was nicknamed Picks Patrick for a reason.

I like Labatt's but agree with you about wings. Beef on weck is one of my favorite sandwiches though

I thought the Bills playing late Monday that night hurt them as well in the Chiefs game. When I posted a thread about it though the few responses I got were No

Its going to be a long offseason me feels

My Dad's take on it was the guy is just a jerk shoving a 65 year old coach like that...... he had no rooting interest at all in the game so I respect his take. For me like you say the bottom line in the NFL is winning sort of like $ is the bottom line for businesses...... right or wrong that's just sort of how it is

an appropriate song for him lol As much as I want to say it was totally classless, d- baggy, and uncalled for....... if Josh Allen bumps Mcdermott like that during the Super Bowl and wins... I mean I still don't think I'll say Oh Wow He is The ultimate competitor but it would be very easy for me to look the other way.

20 years of total dominance by the Patriots is still too much to look past. I mean even if the Bills were never exactly a threat to win the Super Bowl any of those years. Although the Chiefs are definitely trending in the wrong direction for me in terms of like ability.

I agree with a lot of that but I liked T.O. From what I recall he was still pretty good on the field and not a cancer in the locker room. Actually he still seems to speak fondly of his time here
