@matter2003 Healthy relationships are based on equality and respect while abusive ones are based on power and control. The sex of the person/abuser to me is irrelevant. Its a relational curse that as has been mentioned can begin gradually and escalate or have been the pattern they saw while growing up and they act what they know and have seen. You being less tolerant of your partners alleged disrespect sounds great in theory and healthy boundaries and what conduct you personally will accept or not accept is your perogative. But especially when children are involved i'd try to be a bit less judgmental and know this issue isn't as cut and dried as "respect" or "disrespect". If you dont have the emotive skills to handle anger and frustration and the need to control doesn't mean they disrespect their partner necessairily . Could it be they simply respect their own opinions and judgments More and retaliate when it appears the partner won't go along with the program? Power and control is the key IMO and not "respect"

0.0 blood alcohol and he is charged with DUI?? How can that be...and if that did happen why did it take this long for charges to be dropped. This whole thing stinks. I'm glad he was exonerated but the fact he had to go through all of that sucks royal. the only thing i can figure is he having an open container in his car which gives cops probable cause to start the whole investigation. I still dont know how an open (empty) beer can equals a DUI charge with zero proof to me thats fishy as heck

I forgot my wallet

I was at the game too. If you remember it was brutally hot and humid that day. I thought at first that his body just straight up couldn't take the elevated temperature and it might have been a physical medical issue. Come to find out it was none of that it was an issue called lack of Heart. And then he makes a dumbass commercial afterwards mocking it. Guy will forevermore be remembered as a quitter. "someone pulls a Vontae Davis" Enjoy your punchline Vontae you earned it.

This is my impression also. If it improves the roster and a fair but not exorbitant price he'll likely pull the trigger. No obvious holes to fill though. Which is Nice for a change!

to keep things in line with the Pegula ownership I could see "One Buffalo" Stadium It doesn't really roll off the tongue though One Bills Drive Stadium PSE Stadium Hunters Hope Stadium that would be a very cool name.

**shaking my head*** this place is getting creepier by the day. Just to clarify a few things for the feeble and idiotic among you (that would be YOU @Joe in Winslow) I went from my original BBMB chat handle name Muppy whch dated to the 90's to Margarita ( a name I used only at a board that had a deceased member named UPPY and seeing my handle Muppy brought painful memories) I changed it here due for a change, then Back to my original chat handle Muppy..never was it a secret, I never made a new account, even admitted I was Muppy from billievers chat in a thread when it was questioned as to wether Margarita was a former poster reinvented. I have never been the type to cowardly hide ANYTHING. I dont know who this 716 character is, It is Not me. I have not been posting in PPP threads with exception of the one with a religious focus. The reason JOE I didnt reply to your question in the religious thread is because you are BLOCKED. I haver zero interest in having any future conversation or messages at all zippo nada NONE with you Am I making myself clear? Trust me if I had something to say to ANYONE in this forum I'd say it. I'm anything but shy. Carry on PPPers. Im OUT. Reading this forum is seriously depressing. SMH.

What if I told you Jesus came to abolish religion? What if I told you voting Republican really wasn't His mission? What if I told you Republican doesn't automatically mean Christian And just because you call some people blind doesn't automatically give you vision? I mean, if religion is so great, why has it started so many wars? Why does it build huge churches but fails to feed the poor? Tells single moms God doesn't love them if they've ever had a divorce But in the Old Testament, God actually calls religious people whores Religion might preach grace, but another thing they practice Tend to ridicule God's people; they did it to John the Baptist They can't fix their problems, and so they just mask it Not realizing religion's like spraying perfume on a casket See, the problem with religion is it never gets to the core It's just behavior modification, like a long list of chores Like, "Let's dress up the outside, make it look nice and neat" But it's funny that's what they used to do to mummies while the corpse rots underneath Now I ain't judging; I'm just saying, quit putting on a fake look ‘Cause there's a problem if people only know you're a Christian by your Facebook I mean, in every other aspect of life, you know that logic's unworthy It's like saying you play for the Lakers just because you bought a jersey See, this was me too, but no one seemed to be on to me Acting like a church kid while addicted to pornography See, on Sunday I'd go to church, but Saturday getting faded Acting if I was simply created to just have sex and get wasted See, I spent my whole life building this facade of neatness But now that I know Jesus, I boast in my weakness Because if grace is water, then the Church should be an ocean It's not a museum for good people—it's a hospital for the broken Which means I don't have to hide my failure; I don't have to hide my sin Because it doesn't depend on me; it depends on Him See, because when I was God's enemy and certainly not a fan He looked down and said, "I want that man." Which is why Jesus hated religion, and for it He called them fools Don't you see so much better than just following some rules Now let me clarify—I love the Church, I love the Bible, and yes, I believe in sin But if Jesus came to your church, would they actually let Him in? See, remember He was called a glutton and a drunkard by religious men But the Son of God never supports self-righteousness—not now, not then Now back to the point—one thing is vital to mention How Jesus and religion are on opposite spectrums See, one's the work of God, but one's a man-made invention See, one is the cure, but the other's the infection See, because religion says "do"; Jesus says "done" Religion says "slave"; Jesus says "son" Religion puts you in bondage, while Jesus sets you free Religion makes you blind, but Jesus makes you see And that's why religion and Jesus are two different clans Religion is man searching for God; Christianity is God searching for man Which is why salvation is freely mine, and forgiveness is my own Not based on my merits, but Jesus' obedience alone Because He took the crown of thorns, and the blood dripped down His face He took what we all deserved—I guess that's why you call it grace And while being murdered, He yelled, "Father, forgive them; they know not what they do." Because when He was dangling on that cross, He was thinking of you And He absorbed all your sin, and He buried it in the tomb Which is why I'm kneeling at the cross, saying, "Come on, there's room" So for religion—no, I hate it; in fact I literally resent it Because when Jesus said, "It is finished," I believe He meant it

the M&T or Marine Midand bank (cant remember the bank actual name) in Batavia always sold blocks of tickets in that end zone so it was greatly inhabited with batavia folks. I sat with them many many times. Our own little slice of Bills heaven :-)))))))

my niece is a high school teacher who will work her butt off to be there for her students because she CARES about them, their future and her chosen profession. I think teachers overall would never have undertaken the job if not for a calling to do so. It's certainly not the high pay that draws them. Her work load will likely double on top of already strapped school budgets which hamper them to the tune of she buying her own classroom supplies at times. I know this is anecdotal but her profession is so important to her she will attend classes at her school as mandated by her bosses and without complaint. She is young and healthy. I will pray she and her students remain healthy. Other teachers I know aren't as willing to go back as she is wether it be to co-morbidities or other reasons. I respect them all to the highest no matter where they fall on this issue.

https://www.vice.com/en_uk/article/4ayw8j/white-privilege-examples there were many listed here I'd never have thought of but are things we white folks take for granted that people of color cannot. This thread can either be thought provoking reflection or can be racially provocative fear based propaganda against changes that could benefit not destroy race relations and relationships. I hope for the former. #THINK
