    Who will be the first coach fired?

    Mike McCarthy.  Perfect weather for a firing - emotional owner with high expectations, media has the high expectations, coach with a team that persistently doesn't meet them. The franchise is glued to Prescott, who isn't the answer.  

     

    If the Cowboys lose to the Eagles in blowout fashion or the lose to the Giants, Jones may do it.  

    Yep, that's who I picked before the season, but not until right around week 14.

    This has nothing to do with the Bills losing, and even less to do with the fact that my ex-wife is English. I swear. These are objective facts.

    1. They are stupidly proud of their Greenwich Mean Time that wreaks havoc with travelers and American football teams. This made sense in 1880 when London was the figurative Center of the World. It is not 1880. Now YOU adapt. Go to Eastern Standard Time already. 

    2. They are stupidly proud of their Foreign Oligarch and Hedge Fund Manager League erroneously know as the English Premier League, so much so that they protect their precious English turf grass by making other events play on a substandard carpet that wouldn't be out of place in the indoor portion of a Walmart Garden Center.

    3. They have a really nice launching spot for seeing the "the Continent" (they still talk of "going to Europe" as if they are a Caribbean island) but saw fit to ruin that by Brexiting and making all of that really inconvenient.

    4. They are stupidly proud of their music scene, which no one cares about other than English people living abroad (which they do in millions, creating little Englands in every spot where the sun shines more than 60 days a year), and they continue to worship horrible acts like Cliff Richard and Oasis and the Kaiser Chiefs and all kinds of peculiarly English crap. They are also stupidly proud of their "English sense of humo(u)r" by which they mean "I will insult you in the most obvious manner possible whenever you say something remotely earnest so that all may bow to my rapier sharp wit."

    5. The more recent arrivals in London and a few other cities will feed you well with tasty, complexly spiced dishes. But 90% of the territory will ooh and aah over heavy, greasy, tasteless dishes (so awful that even they have invented a word - "stodgy" - to describe their own cuisine) that you are expected to compliment your in-laws about as if they've just fed you a 4 star Michelin tasting menu. And heaven forbid you encounter these people around Christmas, where you will watch them howl with laughter at things like a Christmas Pantomime, a kind of childish joke play that appears to consist of putting the least feminine man possible in a dress, making a high pitched voice drowned out by howls of laughter. Oh, and then you can all gather round to watch the Queen's King's Christmas address, the same King who, in perhaps the least arousing sexting scandal ever, expressed his desire to be his horse-faced mistress's tampon. Really.

     

    Goodbye, old England. I hope Bills Nation never visits you again.

    So, it's a cool place to just visit?

    Really in the dumps right now. I can handle the losses but the catastrophic injuries these past two years really have me down.

    Seriously questioning why I still watch and care. Seeing grown men crying and literally dying on the field knowing their season and maybe their careers are over. All so some broadcast network can charge more for a commercial of something I would never purchase. 

    The 90's teams had injuries but our core guys never missed huge chunks of time. I have no idea if injuries are more frequent now or more catastrophic. I know surgery and recovery is better than ever. Yet it still feels so hopeless. All the emotional investment we as a community invest only for it to be sprained, torn, or broken in seconds. 

    Losing Milano is a gut shot I'm not sure I can get over. 

    Find a new hobby then... at least nowadays players have enough money, if they are smart, to live the rest of their life with in a nice way.

     

    Hopelessness ... emotional investment.. that's all on you. I have loved the Bills since the Kemp days but it's just a watch and see as always.

    I didn't know the following thing applied to YouTube... most of it is just self promoting from what I've seen. I look up stuff and I sift through it. I sifted around for this... which explains at least a few things.

    and you know this how?

    I'm not fat and sit in front of a computer all day but just a few clicks. Just a few internet clicks and it is pretty plain to see lol. I suppose you are one to always want to create controversy on The Internet because you are bored and don't have much going on in your life. The internet... where would you be without it.
