  1. The entire point is sports entertainment operates differently and the NFL is the most in demand so they will have an extra fee which is the PSL. If the PSL was losing money or hurting their revenue, they wouldn't do it. Okay Johnny Drama...they should be publicly shamed lol? "Did you hear these mega millionaires have to pay extra fees with their memberships and have to buy more to get more after??" "Are they forcing them to have these memberships?" "No, it's up to them if they want to live there or not. You don't have to live there, you can just sign up too but it costs more." The public outcry would be close to the Boston Massacre. The club is paid for by the members. It's a private club inside a gated community and the people who live inside pay for it along with other members. Through membership fees, revenue from the restaurant and bar and the additional memberships to use other amenities. But if you don't live there, you can still have a membership but not sure what the qualifications are. So in your extra scenario, it plays out 100% to your Taco Bell comparison. Quoted by you: "Taco Bell building, then paying to enter the building they paid for, then paying for the tacos themselves"
  2. I am starting to get the feeling that Beane gets aggressive and we make a trade to be the biggest story of the draft. Our 1st round picks are always in the mid 20's and later. Those are harder and harder to find playmaking difference makers. Yes it does happen but it's not often. Use those picks to move up high and get the guy that can be the Marvin Harrison to Peyton Manning. Subliminal message in there....
  3. PSL is a fee and we are talking specifically about additional fees to watch the game. So yes, PSL is the major discussion of this but as my point still stands, you pay fees for entertainment, there is just an extra one for football because of it's demand. As someone who apparently runs a business, in this scenario, the business owners who have implemented these plans have seen growth....how is that not a successful business model? The really high end country club across the street from me, members first have to pay an initiation fee which is a lot. Then they have annual membership fees every year after that. That just gets them in the door of the country club. Does this membership fee include food, drinks, golf, tennis, swimming etc? Nope, just gets you in the door to where you basically can hangout. If you want to play golf, swim or other activities...another fee. Guess what pays for the building? The members. My best friend and his wife do well and they're part of a country club and their set up is the same except their membership fees include the pool. It happens in a much smaller setting than the NFL.
  4. Comparisons do not need to be 100% the same to be valid lol. That would mean you can’t compare anything because nothing is 100% alike.
  5. No I don’t just mean football. As I have said, sports entertainment is different. Who paid for State Farm Arena when I watched Elton John, Bill Burr, Jo Koy and other entertainers? I had to pay for parking in the parking lot my taxes paid for. I had to pay for the seat. I had to pay the ticket fees. You are a businessman and you’re telling me that financial growth doesn’t mean success? This sport is bigger than all other US sports combined and it will continue to grow. People are buying the product they are selling. Its supply meets demand and demand is high.
  6. Why do you get so defensive about any criticism of your strategy? Im not the only one who has pointed out its impossibility and then you get upset.
  7. That is pretty much the case with entertainment venues. A restaurant franchise operates differently than a sports entertainment franchise. It doesn't matter if 99% of businesses operate differently. I don't think you can call something insane when it's a very successful model. If I want to go to a football game, comedy show, concert, festival.....all the above is what people have to do.
  8. 1. Kettle Cooked jalapeno chips 2. Cookies and Creme pretzels 3. Beef Jerky. Not Slim Jims, those are okay but give me Jack Links. 4. Pringles Sour Cream and Onion
  9. These people have a mental issue and they can't control urges. The damage they do to children, to me, is as bad as homicide.
  10. Did you know there has never been a team to win a Super Bowl with having nothing but 25 year olds? Why do you think your plan wins a Super Bowl when it's never been done? It's crazy to me that they are criticizing something that is unrealistic. They make up a scenario that won't work and then criticize Beane when he doesn't do it lol.
  11. Yes and it's the reason why there isn't a single GM who has ever or will ever do that. It's not a terrible plan, it's unrealistically bad. The majority of your roster is going to be players under $3 million in base salary. Its not just the McBeane, it's every single roster in the history of the NFL. I think teams average about 2-3 UDFA making the 53 man roster. And we want the majority of our roster being that??
  12. If he's that fast and quick but doesn't separate, he probably rounds his routes or telegraphs his cuts. If someone isn't a separator then I would prefer to have size.
  13. I understand there is a judicial process. But I do believe it doesn't need to be so black and white, especially in a case like this. He was caught red handed with a lot of material. There needs to be a process in which someone at this level shouldn't be allowed around children.
  14. Make sure it's a good and reputable one. I went to a guy that said he could fix my slipped disc. After a few adjustments, he completely blew out my disc and I had to have surgery. I am going to a good one now, if my disc goes out, he just stretches me until the swelling goes down and then does the adjustment.
  15. Do you know if he has to wear a bracelet or monitor? If not, allowing this guy to have unmonitored until his trial date is unacceptable. These guys who have this child predator/sex mindset do not have the ability to control their urges.
  16. This guy is where he needs to be. I lived in a townhouse for 18 months during covid. A guy that lived a building down was arrested on a sting operation for child pornography. He was released on bail and the HOA couldn't do anything about it. Because he wasn't on the lease, his sister who he lived with was and he hadn't been convicted yet. Courts were delayed because of Covid and they couldn't legally have him removed until he was officially sentenced in court. Insane in the membrane.
  17. Of course. He will be in the suit but will have a Buffalo Bills pin on his blazer. Do you think that a 40 year old Rowan Atkinson could walk up in London's hottest nightclub and have his pick of the honey's? It didn't help Dustin Diamond (RIP) but not sure what appeal Mr. Bean had on the ladies.
  18. That's exactly what I have been reading about him. If we don't address our #2 WR, could this be a shared responsibility between Shakir, Samuel, Hollins and lets say a McConkey? I am on the WR train first but I can easily seeing us going edge or even safety in round 1.
  19. McDermott wouldn’t have made it to 0-7 in the playoffs either. If the Bills would have lost our first 3 playoff games under McDermott, he probably would have been gone.
  20. 6 foot and 4.3 speed isn’t small or slow. He isn’t big but I think we need speed.
  21. I don’t understand why we sign guys like this. We should just have 22 quality to great starters and 31 UDFA rookies as back ups.
