  1. I agree with Brit Bill. I wouldn’t stay near the stadium. You’ll regret it. All of the week’s activities are in central London. The game will be in the late afternoon and the stadium is in a primarily residential neighborhood. Just take the overground train to Tottenham….it’s easy and cheap.
  2. We’ve always gone Virgin Atlantic from LAX to Heathrow. Gotta love the open bar and those purple polyester steward outfits! 😁
  3. Thanks for clarifying. It’s always good to know when you’re just being a “prick” about something. At least that’s what my wife tells me. 😉
  4. I support anyone who comes on here to make a point or state their case no matter what their leanings may be. However, I will NEVER support the childish labeling, name calling, and junior high level memes.
  5. You’d get used to it. Everyone does. It’s great! You get the whole day ahead of you after the Bills win in the morning game. 👍
  6. Assuming that SC stands for South Carolina and not Southern California, why do you care this much? The Bills play at almost every possible hour and on almost every day of the week but Wednesday and Thursday now. If you’re that much of a creature of habit you’re gonna miss half the season. 😉
  7. For what it’s worth in Southern California that house would easily be $10,000,000. But our property taxes are capped at 1% so that means ‘only’ $100,000 in taxes.
  8. People…come on. It’s England, not Jupiter. The Bills will be acclimated to the time change by that Sunday. Have any of you ever been to Europe? Sheeesh! The bigger problem is the trip coming back. So I’m hopeful their bye week is the NEXT week.
  9. I actually equate Arsenal with the Dallas Cowboys. They’re a big club with a lot of money and an impressive home field. They had their championship moments a few decades ago and now just make a wee bit of noise now and again.
  10. If it’s of any consolation they were comparing Man City to the Bills, not the Bills to Man City. 😉
  11. Ha! Thanks for sharing! Looks like they’ll be done any day now.
  12. Just as does every other team every five years or so. I can tell you from having gone the last time we played there….it’s an absolute blast! Going on the assumption that you personally can’t afford attending the Super Bowl, might I suggest that the London experience is about as close as you’re going to get to the general atmosphere but for WAY WAY less money.
  13. We sit in regular coach. It’s super nice. Nothing at all like being packed into an airplane. And smooth as silk. It’s hilarious….when you get to the middle of the channel the first translation of the public address announcements change from English to French depending on which side of the dividing line you’re on. (It’s completely dark outside when you’re in the actual Chunnel.)
  14. I don’t disagree…but can they leave the poor Bills out of it. 😂 (How about the Vikings for a change?)
  15. Turned on the semi-finals of the UEFA soccer tournament on CBS just now. The match features two famous clubs, Manchester City versus Real Madrid, and in making an analogy for Man City the announcer mentions the fact that likewise the Buffalo Bills have never won the Super Bowl. I mean, really? Ugh!
  16. Sweet! Next time. I’m sure the price has gone up, but right before the pandemic we were paying something like $99 for each round trip ticket on the Eurostar. Round trip! Unbelievable.
  17. While apology isn’t OWED, it doesn’t mean it wouldn’t be the right thing to do.
  18. In most employment settings that would be considered wrongful termination. None of the things he was ‘dealing with’ occurred at his place of employment or with anyone remotely associated with the Buffalo Bills organization. It’s a tough situation for sure, but I don’t think you’re ever hurt by offering an apology.
  19. Protecting them from retaliation in the case of an employee for example. This simply cannot be that foreign of a concept to you.....is it?
  20. Huh? Protecting the accuser is NOT the same as believing the accuser. However, I do not believe in protecting the accuser in all circumstances. When the accuser is a 'minor', or in the case of an employee there are reasons for those protections....but not in general.
  21. Sure! That sounds about right. I'm going to use it three times in a sentence until I know that it's true.
  22. He also warned Germany about putting all of their energy eggs in Russia's pipeline basket. They, of course, laughed at him. Fools!
  23. That is correct. That is NOT how our system works. It is up to the accuser to PROVE that what they are claiming is true. Not the other way around.
