    The big problem is, people sign away things like this, and then bring a lawsuit anyways. Often they win or get a big settlement. Brown is definitely the person who would sign a paper until it is no longer convenient for him. It is completely understandable that the NFL wouldn’t be willing to take that chance for someone who has shown to lack all basic reasoning skills. 

    That is where our Countries differ. In CAD, you could smash your face to bits from a slip and fall in a grocery on a banana peel left by an employee and the most you would see is a few 100k; let alone signing a waiver beforehand.

    The rules are not driven by the NFL, but this was what the NFLPA wanted and agreed to.  More safety for the players and better requirements for the manufacturers.

     

    I believe as long as he is part of the NFLPA - he gave up free choice.

     

    The rules are in place for all players to be treated equally and fairly.  This is not the idiotic NHL that allowed players to be grandfathered in to not wearing helmets when it was clearly an issue.  

    like I said, no future players can use the old helmets; just the guys 9+ years in.

     

  3. I find it hilariously ironic that, as a Canadian (Montreal), I gotta be the one to school y'all Yankees on the concept of free choice. I think it is ridiculous that AB can't just sign a waiver and wear his helmet. Future players will have to choose from the approved list but guys like AB, TB, AR, etc, should be able to use what they want. On player safety, have you seen Micheal Bennett's shoulder pads? They are for a kicker I think. Even though heads are more fragile than shoulders, I think that guys who have been in the league for more than 3 years before the announcement of the change (five years ago) should be able to wear the equipment that they have worn since they entered the NFL. 9 year dudes should be able to choose for themselves provided they waive responsibility of the league. GO BILLS btw ?

  4. I hope that the Taskmaster gener-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-ral gets in before death. He truly was an absolute killer on STs and likely quite experienced with STD's as well (sexually transmitted diseases, if left untreated, can also result in mental illness so maybe STEVE-O's "condition" may not just be related to on-the-field football only). Must say though that I'm getting used to him on MSG/WGR btw; it's kinda fun to watch/hear the way interviewees try to figure out what he is actually asking. GO BILLS! GO TASKMASTER GENERAL STEVE-O!!! Buffalo fans the world over are totally down with your non-psychotic version of CTE my dude. #keepstammeringweloveit:)

  5. As a seasonal visitor and absolute fan of both the Bills and the city, I must say that there is a lot of dead real estate that could be appropriated by the PEOPLE of Buffalo in/near the downtown core. The Bills/Buffalo ppl should do what they did in Detroit with Ford Field and Comerica Park: buy up a bunch of centralized junk property near downtown, blow it up, and slam a billion-dollar business in its place. Yes the traffic will be Hell, yes there will be mega-messes to clean up but those are dope-ass jobs to be had and the money will roll in to a point where the city will start to develop from the inside out. This will result in major investment in the core of the city, possibly even a tram/subway down the road. In my town, Montreal, the Canadiens went the downtown-route when relocating way back. Citizens paid a butt-load for It and it took some time but has totally rejuvenated downtown Mtl. The Sabres are not the Habs in terms of prestige, but the Bills are an NFL team that generates way more dough than even the Habs and so cannot leave your great city under any circumstance.  I'm a teacher as well as a 20+ yr Bills fan; just the chance that the team may relocate to the city makes me wanna try for a green card and buy one of those run-down-beauties near La Nova, fix'er up nice and join the Bills' community for real. GO BILLS! BEST GRUB IN THE U.S.A!!!

    I wouldnt give up a first rounder - but a second? Maybe. But only if in the OTAs the Bills feel Shady has lost a step. Five year 40 mill is a steal for Bell. 

     

    Jets would be foolish to trade him to us - but who else needs him AND has cap space AND draft capital?

    The Colts.

    Who's going to be throwing to Harry for the next 10 years? Brady at 52?

     

    Polish has its own weird curses, like "Szachkrew Cholerka!" Literal translation: Dog's blood Cholera.

    Most every Quebecois curse is anti-Catholic-related. I teach English in a French school in Mtl. Technically, my students can curse in English, but if they use that curse they are in major trouble lol. I just created a lesson on QB Josh Allen. The kids went nuts when they saw Allen hurdle Barr...then laughed when I showed TB12 trying to escape the pocket! GO BILLS

    This.  They really struggle to evaluate college WRs.  They’ve never really hit on one. Harry is going to be used as a “big slot” WR to help offset the loss of Gronk in their offense.  It’s still a major downgrade and a big projection on their part.  I lose no sleep over this pick.

    Has Bill B ever even used a #1 for a WR? I don't think so and that is what bothers me. Not to mention that he is best WR in the draft IMO.

    Let's look on the bright side. Since he lasted this late, it's not that he's a guarantee to be a safe pick. The concerns about his ability to get separation could very much prevent him from having lots of success in the NFL - he could be more Josh Doctson (who looked unstoppable at TCU) than Dez Bryant, and he's drawn comparisons to both of them.

    I did not want us to get back into the 1st for him...as long as the Pats didn't take him. Bill B has never taken a WR in the 1st I think so...ugh

     

  10. This was the guy I hoped we would trade up for mid 2nd round or take next. Directly translated, "calise de tabarnak" is " Chalice of the Church"...French Canadian for "godamnit" but way worse. I'm a Herm fan so I watched a bunch of Sun Devil games this season. He makes the college level look easy. Bloody Pats again.

  11. Sign Funchess. Sign Garcon. Trade Zay. If LAC dumps Gates, bring him in for the locker room to make up (a bit) for Kyle.  Draft Hakeem Butler 1st. Draft best TE on the board 2nd. Use ALL remaining picks on OL and CB. If you want to improve completion % for Allen, give him BIG targets. I know there is a Topic for FA, but my idea involves both; cheers mateys and GO BILLS.

  12.  Listen, there are a lot of things that I don't like about McDermatology. The guy named Bill gives non-answers and still at least barely appears to be human; even at times, in a super-human and quasi-lovable way. Ask the guy named Bill a "football" question and you get bucket-loads of content. However, when asked a similar "football" question (credit for once to the BILLS [not the guy named Bill] press core for asking "football" related questions in the hopes of actually attaining some sort of substantive response) McDermott applies "McDermotology" which somehow kind of exactly reminds me of Dexter. That being said,  don't be fooled by the crazy offences these days, defence is and always will be where it's at. The new rules are like a shot of dope; totally rad at first, but eventually your defences figure out the game and start rejecting. Either the game goes more D than ever or BILLS become a crappy offence in an arena football league. I believe that McDermatology's crazy-eyed ass gets this. Don't be surprised about going heavy D again in 2019. Now slash me to death with your digital paper-knives!

    Oh yeah, what a God-send. I especially like how he bats his drops up in the air high enough for DB's to make the interceptions.

     

    Bum.

    You're using the plural form. Did that happen more than once?

    Are you saying he's ..... articulate?

    Thank you for confirming the "Mets fans are racist" stereotype

    ...all that matters is what he does on the field.  Last year in Washington I saw half hearted efforts every time they were on TV here in WNY.  Sort of like hmmmm...Benjamin!

    Exactly. His experience has humbled him it seems; much like Kelvin's this year should do the same for next year. They will both have price tags next year below their talent level and should both be hungry as Terrell already is.

  14. Just watched his locker room presser and I love the move to get Pryor. I know he gave up a big play but to be in a system for 3 days and get opportunities was impressive and his attitude is dope AF. I remember hearing about him being over-cocky or whatever but I don't see that with the Bills. I bet he provides some juice for the receiving corps moving forward. Thoughts?
