  1. I'll gladly pay the my portion of taxes to keep the Bills here. I pay for the Jets and Giants, I am about to pay a tax hike to drive on a road thats already been paid for 100 times over. Last thing I am going to complain about paying taxes on is something I actually enjoy. Its a futile complaint anyways.
  2. I'm not sure its the only thing keeping him from getting a job. But think about the NFLs recent history regarding violence against women. If the interview process is close do you choose the person with a clean past or the dude who choked a woman? Its been a long time and he may have changed but the Drunk driving, assaulting a woman, luring recruits using sexual favors/alcohol and the odd interfering with a fireman charges are all in the public domain. I think the narrative about him being in Reid's shadow is only a small part as to why he hasn't received a job. Personally, I think NFL teams see the guy as a PR nightmare waiting to happen and would rather not have to answer questions about his past.
  3. I don't disagree about him being in Reids shadow but its goes beyond that for EB. He had a sexual assault charge while at Colorado.
  4. When Harry Met Sally Good Will Hunting Dead Poets Society Silver Linings Playbook Rushmore Sweet November
  5. Dudes worth 250 million. If he's feeling low about doing commercials he can always take the Scrooge McDuck swim in his money vault.
  6. He should have stopped at a little weed. He's smoked whatever amount produces Bob Marley references in your blaming the FBI for killing your mother Instagram video.
  7. Can you believe he is only 25 years old! Lots of room to grow..... Decent player, not an impact player. Milano was the obvious choice to keep.
  8. XFL started with a great business model. They wanted to be an alternative to college football to give kids with academic issues or the financial need to go pro right after high school a chance to get paid to play football. Think Overtime Elite in basketball. Instead they just did what every Spring League does and featured past their prime ex-NFLers and guys who never made to the league. It's bad football. Until the NFL agrees to make one of these leagues their farm system its never going to work.
  9. Ole Seanny P should have come into the job with more humility. There was no reason to go in on Hackett the way he did. The organization had just as much responsibility for the failures as Hackett did, it was a bad hire. The guy made himself a target by running his mouth.
  10. If Zac Taylor was the coach here Bills fans would have shown up at his house with pitchforks or spray painted a ***** on his front lawn. He is a sub .500 career coach who has been very lucky to, at the same time, have a good qb on a rookie contract and still pick top 5 in the draft during that time period. One team I will never have any respect for. Note: The starred out word isn't what you think it is. Very scientific term.
  11. Watching the game I was talking to nobody in particular saying "so they aren't going to pull him off?" If they put the rule in place they need to enforce it.
  12. Both teams get the ball out incredibly fast.
  13. What value did he really have to begin with.
  14. I'm going to go out on a limb and say Howard Hu is full of poo. Still waiting on those flying cars we were promised to have by 2020.
  15. Pretty much everything my Dad and I did together centered around sports or music. Somehow he ended up a California sports guy Athletics, Lakers, and Raiders. We watched a lot of Lakers and Bulls, Bills, and Athletics baseball. Outside of that he coached my youth sports. Only paralleled by weekend trips to the House of Guitars or setting up equipment for his shows on Friday and Saturday nights. Its funny. The activities may have been sports but those times spent together produce so many other conversations. Only had my Dad for 10 years, but his legacy lives on in my relationships with my Sons.
  16. One of my favorite childhood memories. I was seven years old and watched all the games with my Dad. He watched all the Bills games but grew up a Raiders fan. He'd tell me great stories about the Assassin Jack Tatum, Snake Stabler and the Mad Bomber Daryle Lamonica. When I first found out he wasn't a Bills fan I was kind of crushed but I wouldn't change a thing as the stories he told me about the 1960s and 1970s football were some of my favorite times with him. Long story short I remember the week leading up to the game being a huge deal. 97 rock had the parody song "Raiders in the Storm" (No Snow in Californ). My Dad was in a local band and his band mates would call the house after every Bills score to give him crap. Needless to say the phone rang non stop. By the time it was 41-3 all he could do was laugh. Great memory of my Father, awesome game.
  17. Agreed man. He is into his leg kick before the ball even moves.
  18. I cant believe how bad NFL Football has been so far. The Eagles left tackle is leaving early on almost every snap.
  19. Should be a theme until right up until October 31st.
  20. Did anyone come away from that game thinking 17 wasnt the problem? Its great Joe did an all 22, but my God man the guy fumbled the ball twice on one play. If anyone needed Joe Marino to tell them After Futher Review Josh Allen Was the Problem....
  21. Started to regress after year 6 is so oddly specific and easily disproved. His 7th and 8th year in the league were actually better than his 6th year in the league. Not to mention Cam had literally one season on par with what Josh has done in the league. 2015, or year 5 for Cam was a complete outlier in terms of his overall career. 2015, Cam's MVP level season is what Josh has done 3 of his 5 full years in the league. Stop with the narrative, its not accurate.
  22. Obviously if it's true he should sell the team. That said, the actual quote is so incredibly stereotypical I can't imagine its true. If I am Pegula I sue the absolute pants off the guy and make sure he enjoys working at Taco Bell forever.
  23. Had the same thought. Sick of watching him sulk on the bench red cheeked. Game isn't happening to you bro. Get up and get going.
  24. I agree with you. I am not sure the guy has the desire to be great outside of continuing to tell people he does. The immaturity was on full display during his press conference last night. Hits the press with an S bomb right away, because if you swear you must be really passionate. If you're really passionate, you don't have to have multiple press conferences where you say you play like crap because you take the necessary steps not to. Josh isn't going to like it but his off-season is going to be more under the microscope than ever. Guy needs to decide if he is an NFL football player or the next golf pro at Oak Hill.
