Frustrations of being a Bills fan in Canada
1ManRaid replied to Canadian Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
You also need to do research on the charities you may donate to. Many of them are so inefficiently managed, that you're lucky if pennies on your donated dollar actually eventually go to charitable use once the managers and other overhead costs take their cut. A good example is the knee-jerk donations to the Red Cross whenever there is a hurricane or something. You're not getting a dollar to the current victims, you're getting nickles to next year's hurricane victims. There's even a whole industry of technically legal "legitimate" charities and nonprofits where management bonuses coincidentally increase by about the same amount of the extra money raised that year. It's what drove me nuts living with my great aunt as a teenager, dealing with dozens of calls per week from all these fraud charities because she kept giving all her money to them thinking she was making a difference. -

Customs charges on a $25 shirt aren't THAT high. It's just the shipping companies gouging us for having to deal with border nonsense. -

Whatever it is, I had to stop ordering car parts from Rock Auto because items that used to ship for $5-$20 were suddenly $20-50 to ship during the pandemic. -

I was today years old when I learned Caribbean Netherlands was a real place and not a typo. I hope I didn't just start WW3 thinking they made a typo including a country I had literally never heard of before. -
Preparing for Tre White to never be the same post-injury

We've had this exact thread before. -

This is why I'm the family courier for my sisters in Mississauga. I'm in St Catharines and we have a PO box over in Lewiston for this kind of stuff. I'm also apparently really good at bringing stuff over without having to pay border taxes (probably saved my sister $1k by this point), I guess my demeanor works well on the border agents. -
I have to steal that now to go troll them on Twitter.

That's actually what I came to say heh. Weird thing is it's probably true.

Anyone have an extra ticket to Bills @ Rams game
1ManRaid replied to NewEra's topic in The Stadium Wall
Knowing LA/Buffalo fans, I'd wager there's pretty good odds you'd be seated by Bills fans wherever you are at that game. -
Yeah I realized afterwards that my phrasing might confuse someone, but it was too late.

I don't see a problem with this.

Starting in 2023, games can be flexed to MNF
1ManRaid replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall
Haven't you heard? According to Patriots fans, we couldn't even sell out our first home playoff game in decades in 2020! Barely 6000 fans showed up! -
He's waiting for Keenum to slip on a bath mat so he can come end his career with his true team as our backup.

Titans OT Taylor Lewan says players pay PFF for higher grades
1ManRaid replied to Einstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
I highly doubt Wegmans or Forbes is worrying about going after Joe Nobody from randominternetforum.com for a libelous belief. -
(Rumor) Drew Brees hinting at a comeback
1ManRaid replied to BuffaloBills1998's topic in The Stadium Wall
These balloning contracts must have vets thinking they are missing out. He must think he could probably get $20-25m for a year from a needy team who can't afford a top QB in their cap. -

1ManRaid replied to Einstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yeah you don't even have to take claims of bribery seriously to have at least some grounds to "despise" PFF. Including what you alluded to, the list includes... - Literally admitting to trolling Bills fans for clicks. - Fabricating an "objective" statistic (turnover worthy plays) just to crap on Josh Allen. - Coining the term "arm arrogance" as a catch-all defense for crapping on Josh Allen while giving Patrick Mahomes a pass for the same behavior. - Rating Josh Allen outside the top 10 QBs while he was on a record setting/MVP tear, then needling Bills fans/backpeddling with "it's ok Bills fans, he's close to being top 10". - Going out of their way to leave Bills out of the discussion on polls about top safeties, WR pairs, QB/WR duos, defenses, overall rosters, etc. - Only flipping their script and giving the Bills more positive coverage after it was obvious the Bills were the new media darlings and Super Bowl favorites. Just off the top of my head. As far as the claims of bribes, I'll take it with a huge grain of salt, as much as I'd love to see evidence of it being true. -
So technically, we are neutral site favorites against every team on the schedule. Favored by more than 3 for every home game, and either coin flip or less than 3 point dogs in the two road games we aren't favorites. Has this ever happened?
-
Yeah I think I've already given up on getting to a game this year. That or just tell anyone getting me something for my birthday (December) to pitch in for tickets instead.
-
Someone's going to have to remind me what the AHOT means. I'm pretty sure I can divine the TBD part.

I wouldn't mind getting a link to that for the lulz.

So much for the "leaks" that we have week 1 at home and the Ravens on Thanksgiving.
