    See you in 2022.  I'm pretty sure you will be wrong.  

    Maybe but TV providers are losing money at a huge rate, eventually that will trickle down to TV networks that'll be looking to cut costs, the NFL has a business model that needs to grow indefinitely to meet rising costs, something will have to give. Only 3 in 10 have favorable views of the NFL today and the majority of those say their unfavorable opinion is because of players disrespecting our flag and anthem, to me it can all only spell trouble unless they can get their employees under control and clean up their image with a majority of Americans.

    I agree that this thread is mean spirited and racist and should be locked.

    You sir are being raciest by suggesting that because Leodis can't string a sentence together its because he is black.

    The problems of black America certainly go all the way back to slavery.  In Africa, blacks had a family structure.  It may have been a bit different from white family structure, but it enabled values and customs to be passed on from generation to generation.  Under slavery, black families could be ripped appart on the whim of slave owners.  When slaves were freed, black families no longer had a stable family structure.  Black males did not know how to be fathers and family providers because slavery had denied them the opportunity to learn.  Couple that with the lack of opportunity because white folk wanted to reserve opportunity for themselves and their children, and it became a recipe to keep blacks in poverty for generation after generation: no opportunity, and no means of passing on a culture which would allow the ability to make social advances over time.

     

    A small percentage of blacks have been able to break free, and have created their own opportunities for advancement, and have created a family structure and a culture from scratch, but too many have not.  The failure to do so should not be a reason for blaming black America because there is no evidence to suggests white folk would have done any better had positions been reversed.  Society still has an obligation to try and lend a helping hand to black America.  This is not easy, however.  White America has in many cases tried to create opportunity for blacks.  Unfortunately, there is no easy or quick way to try and help an entire ethnic group to create family structure from scratch, especially since we live in a time where family structure across all cultures is under attack and has disintigrated in many cases.  Sometimes new structure have arisen, sometimes not, but it's tough to offer what we no longer have.

     

    I apologize.  I did not mean to offend with my second language post, but it is true, language in some of the subcultures in our society is sufficiently different that it makes making oneself understood in the "establishment culture" rather difficult, almost as if it is a second language.

    Wow, what nonsense

  3. ah yes, typical Bills fans obsession with mediocre QBs that are just waiting to be discovered for the Tom Bradys they are. We can't ever just draft a guy high, support and develop him into a 10+ year starter like almost every other team, always a stupid project that we know will go nowhere.

    how about one year and i will send you case of Perrier ?
    I think Allen Should sit as long as AJ is at least middlin'  for the Bills.
    Have some real hope AJM can hold down the fort till next years FA stacked cash blitz o rama. When all the pieces finish the "Trust the Process " puzzle

    Dumb, so we "stack" our roster with talent in 2019 and have to start the process of developing Josh Allen from scratch and will have wasted all of 2018 on watching AJ McCarron struggle to get us to 8-8 9-7 instead of letting Allen take his rookie lumps then, I just don't understand you guys

    The only way you develop is by playing. Learning on the bench is a myth. And if Allen starts and plays bad 1st couple games and people worry about him losing his confidence then he doesn't have the mental toughness to be a franchise QB anyway.

    No they are not.  They are not remotely the same player.  If you want to blindly categorize them together, fine...but its a completely jaded Bills fan false narrative.  

     

    Does not mean Allen will be more or less successful, but they are not remotely the same player in college or entering the draft.  

    This is what happens when these fans live out their whole football knowledge on message boards and madden, without actually watching the players play
