London Jaguars? Cheerio!
Bob Chandler's Hands replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It's a way to pair up two culturally similar cities like Jacksonville and London in a joint love of a football tea. I believe Paris and Cleveland, and Tokyo and Indianapolis are also in the works. Seriously though I think it's less stupid than it is greedy. -
If the regime lasts 3 years or less then they failed anyway, due to some combination of factors. If you are aiming for long term success I think it applies. A recent article in Sports Illustrated on the Seahawks was illuminating. The premise of the article was that they built a very strong culture (based on competition and accountability) that had success and was primed for continued success, but they deviated from it and corrupted it, at least in part leading to their downfall. But yeah, for the three ring circus we're used to in Buffalo it's a foreign concept for sure. Have to go back to the Levy/Polian era for a strong winning culture that lasted many years.

We have a saying at work. It applies to the long run...i.e. over many years, not week to week. That is that Culture eats Strategy for breakfast. In the long run this is true. Strategies change week to week and year to year. A strong (or deficient) culture will be a more defining trait of success or failure in the long run.

Trade for Sam Bradford?
Bob Chandler's Hands replied to GoodHands15's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yeah but those few weeks made all the difference in Wentz's career. -

True Nope, it was due to Fergy: https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/06/23/the-story-behind-the-bills-red-helmets/ -
Is it time for Kaepernick?
Bob Chandler's Hands replied to mynmisoli's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
My guess is that the OP is not a Bills fan at all. It's someone with a vested interest in stirring up discussions to keep Kaepernick relevant. Could be ideologically motivated, could be from Nike. No way to know for sure, but I suspect anyone taking this post seriously is being played. Evidence? The guy joins and starts a topic and comments on others solely related to Kap. Real "billsblood" there...not. -

The Bills Are Seven Point Dogs in Week 1
Bob Chandler's Hands replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If we can guess these things from available information, safe to say the Vegas lines have already included it as well. -
Only post Super Bowl years though I believe. And the economy sucked in WNY at the time (I mean more than usual)

Having lived with a partially torn ACL for several years (before completely tearing it away) I would just comment that so long as what remains is structurally holding things in place, it doesn't really affect you. Also, some people can live normal, active lives (like downhill skiing active) with no ACL anymore, just because of how they are built. So I don't really know what to make of the 85% torn claim as it relates to what his performance would have otherwise been if not torn at all. It strikes me that it might not have been any different.
