  1. Look! If you’re going to quote actual statistics instead of ranting with nothing to back it up, maybe you need to find a more appropriate venue. Just saying.
  2. We’re all disappointed. It’s compounded by the general perception of the D Line performance to date. Let’s face it; if the DL is underperforming it’s hard to see how this kid could be much worse.
  3. It’s obviously too early for the label but I’d say that being healthy but never getting on the field is the literal definition of a bust.
  4. So that settles it! I’m NOT going to the Super Bowl this year. Thanks NFL….. I was really hoping to see the Bills lift the Lombardi.
  5. If you’re moving to California you’re gonna find it needs a bit of work.
  6. I was just about to say our Linebackers are too small, but then I see this skinny kid make an impressive tackle for the Packers on third down. Maybe scrawny is the new stout! 🤷🏼‍♂️
  7. What kind of a crap play call is that?
  8. This defense cannot tackle for shite!
  9. The penalties are out of control! McD has to get himself tossed!
  10. Fake news! I was told numerous times on here that Spencer Brown was a definite bust. 😉
  11. That is NOT holding!
  12. Murray has to have the smallest feet of anyone in the NFL. They’re freakishly tiny.
  13. Not a stupid question at all….Large projects like the stadium or my movie theater example are most often built by a General Contractor (GC). The GC doesn’t provide any of the labor or material, but rather manages and supervises Trade Subcontractors who do the actual construction. They hire Subs for every aspect of the project from grading through final finishes and all are under the direction of, and paid by, the GC. This is not the case on many speculative commercial projects in the retail and office space sectors, where tenants often aren’t designated until after the shell is in place. In those instances a Tenant Improvement (T.I.) contractor is later hired by the tenant themselves to outfit the interior of the shell. Hope that helps.
  14. Funny you mention that. Many years ago I designed a large cinema right outside Disneyland. We opened it for Batman with Heath Ledger as the joker. The fire alarm went off very near the end of the film causing the building to be evacuated….and so to this day I have no idea how that movie ends. 😂
  15. It’s a long season and while at this point it’s really difficult to say which outcome will be better for the Bills, it’s worth noting that in two weeks the Ravens host the Rams and the Chiefs host the Lions. It’s not gonna be getting any easier for the loser of this Sunday’s game. One of these teams could very possibly be 2-4 by then.
  16. If we’re picking at 32 it means I’ll have died of a heart attack, so I’ll add our draft needs to the long list of things I’m not going to worry about. 😉
  17. Missing in all these well thought out responses is any mention of the OPs citing that the CFL’s end zones will be changed to be ‘closer’ to the size of the NFL’s. Exactly what size will they be? Maybe something like 15.6943 yards deep? What does that work out to in meters?
  18. Yes, I would. Especially since you can pick seats just a couple seats further from the aisle and avoid the issue altogether.
  19. I’ll root for the Ravens in this one. The Chiefs have proven they can turn it on come playoff time. We could use them to dig themselves a really deep hole. The Ravens, not so much.
  20. I still find him that way. 😉
  21. They may indeed be. But that’s not unusual if you sit in the front row of any stadium. It’s required by the Building Code. However….with regards to the renderings, keep in mind much depends on the height of the view angle established by the architect’s animation.
  22. They’re not 100% accurate, but they’re pretty close.
  23. If you want to be in commercials you have to put in the work that’s required to be in commercials. It’s no different than anything else. With that said, why does anyone think that Lamar wants to be in commercials? Has he expressed an interest? Has he taken the steps to get there? What if he just wants to be a really good football player? There’s nothing wrong with that.
  24. I know exactly where I’m at. I’m at home….how about you?
  25. This is a stadium/crowd management issue as much as a design problem. So long as the aisle ushers are asked to control the times when fans are allowed to come up the stairs (for example NOT after the play has started) the ‘obstruction’ should be minimized. BTW… the ushers try to do that now at the existing stadium.
