    You have the strangest (and most persistent) axe to grind with the Bills over this stadium.  It’s so odd.

     

    New Highmark is at the leading edge of technology and design for a roofless facility, and it looks very modern and cool.

     

     

    If those three giant bisons out front don't look like the renderings then I will declare this stadium an economic and cultural disaster

    The message boards?  Early 2017 I still remember that well actually.

     

    Usually anyone poster with a start date here of March 2017 was a transfer such as yours truly.  

     

    Guilty here, too. I remember Shaw and teef from BBMB, among others.

    I was going to say I’m a happier fan during the Josh Allen era. Being OAF I at least got to enjoy the Jim Kelly era. My daughters are getting a good dose of playoff disappointment, I can only shake my head and tell them if they only knew real disappointment like losing 4 in a row, wide right, no goal, home run throw back…🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️😢😢😢

     

    How about the longest playoff drought in North American sports and only two seasons above .500 while Tom Brady goes 32-3 against you and everyone jokes that our team is going to leave us? And toss in a 6-3 loss to the Browns to boot.

    I love the topic @BillsShredder83


    There are a long list of guys that were here for a minute. The TO thing was fun. One guy that I haven’t seen mentioned is Karlos Williams. He was looked like a future star but smoked / ate himself out of the league after a year. He deserves mention.

     

    I remember him. RB from FSU. Showed promise, and I liked his interviews. I thought maybe we had something there.

    Founding of what?

     

    Founding Partner for the new stadium. They're going to add a bunch of 5G antennas and cloud capability I think.

     

    Apparently they'll offer immersive fan experiences through this tech and it also helps broadcasting teams cut down on staff. 

     

    This is at least what I'm reading. Who knows if anyone will notice anything.

    Well until proven otherwise....KC. I actually believe beating them during the season helps KC more than us. They look at what they did wrong and correct it. Whereas the Bills just think what they did during the season will carryover to the postseason. 

     

    Am I crazy to think losing to them during the season might benefit us?

     

    I don't understand how Baltimore is leading the vote when Allen's Bills still haven't gotten past Chiefs. It's now become its own narrative.

     

    What's it going to take for folks to wake up? Five straight losses to them in playoffs? Six? It's Chiefs until it isn't.

    It’s NOT Cleveland 6 - Bills 3, I can tell you that.

     

    but I enjoyed the blowout over the Fish in the last game of the season, where the Fish needed it for the playoffs.

     

     

    Was sitting in a computer lab all alone during the Cleveland game and monitoring the score. That was miserable.

     

    I remember coming to a realization that we've probably hit rock bottom. It wasn't even anger, just pure embarrassment.

    I'm not saying Kelly sucks. That's you putting words in my mouth. One thing Kelly did though, choke in the SB. He had 2 passing TD's in four games to 7 INT's. He got hurt early in the first Dallas SB, but had already managed to throw 2 INT's before that. His only two passing TD's in the SB came in garbage time against Washington when the game was already out of reach. 

     

    I do believe that if you put Marino in a Bills uni then we get two SB's. It's not laughable. Marino was a a better QB than Kelly. Just my 2. 

     

    Didn't Kelly win all three of their meetings in the playoffs? I'm not sure I'd switch.

    Yeah - the great thing about Fredonia is it used to be so unstructured and you used to be able to be so close to the players and move so easily around to where different groups/players were

     

    We would hang by the orange fencing by the field near where players would get on their golf carts. Crowd wasn't heavy and it was super easy to get to.

     

    I got a signature from Dusty Zeigler. His cart was like four feet in front of me.

    Rich Eisen : "Do you think the Chiefs are on the way to become as hated as the New England Patriots were?"
    Eric Stonestreet: "I live in reality, nobody is rigging the game for the Chiefs."

    Then proceeds to cry about all the suspect calls against the Chiefs the last time they lost to Brady in the playoffs... :rolleyes:

     

     

    I saw that live and thought someone needs to cut to commercial, he is going on a wild tangent about NFL conspiracy theories without prompting. Super cringe. He just kept going.

     

    Eric, the question was about people being tired of Chiefs winning so much, not how they win. Dude clearly was foaming at the mouth for a chance to get this rant off his chest.

    Stephen A actually made some great points about Lamar's performance in the playoffs versus Josh's. Even quoted the stats:

     

    Lamar 6 TD and 6 INT  in 6 games

     

    Josh 21 TD and 4 INT in 10 games

     

    He repeated them three times.

     

    I saw that. It was a good point, and he was right that the other lady was being defensive about Lamar, as too many are.

     

    We've obviously learned that narratives matter more to the public than stats. If Lamar wins Sunday the overwhelming narrative will be Lamar has fully surpassed Allen, and they are no longer equals. I'll never hear the end of it. It's going to suck. 

     

    But I feel good about Sunday because we're going to absolutely flip the script on everyone. I think we'll win.

    yeah a lot of people complained about him, i thought he was great.  a little unpolished but seemed like he was giving us insight that we're certainly not getting from the Troy Aikmans of the world.

     

    I think he has a lot of room to grow. On the flip side, the year after Peyton retired I watched him join the booth for a quarter of a Broncos game.

     

    I couldn't believe it. Other than him needing to be reminded not to root for Denver players (he quickly muttered something like "c'mon [receiver name]" like he was disappointed with their catch attempt), the detailed breakdowns of each play absolutely flowed out of him. No regurgitated gobbledygook whatsoever.

     

    Tom is quite unpolished but there's potential. I'm probably stating the obvious but Peyton has one of the sharpest minds and was ready to go day 1. His Manningcast is obviously successful and I couldn't help but believe he would already be considered everyone's favorite color commentator if he stood in the booth.

    The Killers are Indy Pop. Offspring were Alt Rock sure, but the rest of those are Emo bands.

     

    Today, "classic rock" is music from the 90s. Bands like the Eagles, BOC, Rush, America, Chicago, Foghat, Boston, etc, are called "Yacht Rock" because it's music for old, rich, retired people.

     

    Wait, 90s alternative is now classic rock, and that includes 90s Green Day? And Rush is now oldies? What do we call what used to be oldies?

     

    I'm debating whether I should give up on trying to understand this.
