    I'm trying to remember the last year Wilson was good. Maybe 2019? It has been a steep drop in quality since. Now its just flashes of quality in a sea of terrible.

     

    The sea of terrible will continue for awhile with his cap hit. And to think they could have drafted Josh.

    Yup...when they say to your face "Bless Your Heart", it isn't meant to be sweet and endearing like they are saying it...they are basically giving you the middle finger to your face with a smile and telling you to fvck off.  And the amount of stuff said behind people's back down there is off the chains...they will literally act like your best friend to your face and as soon as you are gone will trash talk the hell out of you to everyone else there.

     

    What is the WNY equivalent to "Bless Your Heart" ?

    It is superficial in the South

     

    i prefer a place where even if people are standoffish at first at least you know who you are dealing with instead of the fake-nice passive aggressive southerners 

     

    honestly having lived here in WNY for most of my life I think we are more Midwest types than classic North East anyway

     

    Having lived in WNY, Mass, Florida, GA, SC & Cali - it can be superficial anywhere depending on who you choose to hang with. 

     

    I would agree that WNY folks tend to be more Midwestern than New England-like.

     

    As far as folks helping on the side of the road, it's more a sign of the times. Next to no one hitchhikes anymore nor will people stop out of fear of it being a setup, cell phones, AAA, etc.

    Absolutely agree.  I take my kids to amerks and sabres game and they love it.

     

    I took them to there first bills game last year and we had to leave by half time because of all the drunken idiots swearing and talking ***** to each other through the whole half (nothing they haven't heard before but to have it go on and on non-stop even made me uncomfortable).

     

    Taking away the tailgate would help but why should 99% of fans be punished for those can't control themselves.

    We had, and maybe still have, an Anchor Bar by a college not too far away. I went twice trying very hard to like it. Not well executed. I shouldn’t have to try THAT hard. 

     

    We HAD a Duff’s about 45 miles away and I’d go a couple times a year. They did a GREAT job, but apparently not good enough. They disappeared around the beginning of Covid, not sure if it was related or coincidence, but I miss it! 

     

    Congrats on the Bar Bill coming near you. That would be a regular in my rotation if they can pull it off. 

     

    Still have and they draw a nice crowd on game days - wings are about as good/bad as the original Anchor Bar. I prefer the Tavern @ Medlock.

    I'm one of those who does not think the name is derogatory. It was a classic logo. No one names a team after a group that is not embraced as valuable. Why do that? But if it is too volatile an issue, going back to Washington Football Team isn't a bad fall back. I started to like it once I got used to it.

     

    Agreed on Redskins - maybe they should poll all Native Americans to see if they think it's offensive.

    Do not know much about these look at me, post my NFL career, show boaters, Favre is singling out and I don’t care about them.
     

    They seem like loud mouth look at me types, apparently necessary to get these kind of jobs, so lawyer up boys, it comes with the territory.

     

    Agreed, the muscle shirt shtick has grown stale at the least.

    Actually to be a PGA pro all ya have to do is pass a written test and play two rounds shooting under 80 on certain courses.  I have played against a few PGA pros and beat them straight up when  I was a 5.1 index.   I play with a few guys who have negative handicap indexes and couldn’t tie the shoes of a touring pro.  

     

    Big difference between your local PGA pro and a PGA Tour professional - most PGA Tour pros have a handicap in the +5-6 range if not even better.

    Allen is more Favre to me. 

     

    In some respects they're not totally wrong. 

     

    Mahomes has proven to be the Michael Jordan of this era. He is a mega-star. 

     

    Burrow is the processor, the high football IQ, throw to the open man. 

     

    If you had put Mahomes on the same teams/coaches Josh has had, Mahomes would also be 0-for-however many.

    But how much of Mahomes being #1 is Andy Reid. 

     

    If JA17 played for Reid, would he be the equal of Mahomes?

     

    Also Kelce is a cheat code for Mahomes, likely the GOAT tight end.

     

    Mahomes has an O-line that is light years better than Buffalo's 

     

     

     

    Josh would be NFL MVP if it was solely determined by which player means the most to his own team.
