    I don't want to be a homer either, but I am there with you. I can't imagine anyone who is markedly better than their Bills counterpart. I mean, I would love to upgrade from Star, and maybe get another edge rusher but I do think that our D is just flat our better.

     

     

     

    Off the top of my head, overall I'd only take Barkley, Engram, Zeitler, Hernandez and at a push Tate from their offense over the Bills O starters.

     

    Too homer?

    This guy gets paid to write for USA Today?!  A gimme game for the Giants?  Holy homerism.

     

    "The New York Giants (0-1) square off against the Buffalo Bills (1-0) at MetLife Stadium in a Week 2 game that should have been considered a gimme for Big Blue, but after the way things shook out last Sunday, they find themselves rare home underdogs."

     

    "In examining the Bills’ 53-man roster, there are some players that stand out, but predominantly, they appear no deeper than the Giants. In fact, their talent is inferior to that of the Giants, which is saying something given how top-heavy New York’s roster is."

    I don't want to be a homer to match this chap but I'm struggling to think of one of their defensive players who would replace a Bills starter.

    If I am reading correctly, looke like he be running  on Saturday..i am betting him through Twinspires!!!!

     

    He is. In a class 2 handicap again. Hence the 16/1 odds. 

     

    Just like Shady the footballer he has his own unique running style. A very high head carry. Always takes an age to get into a race then stays on near the end. This is why he gets burned by the younger horses in the class 2 races.

    so..not quite sure how to read the UK charts..but dont look like that horse has won in a while either..and to top it off he's a @mead107( gelding). 

     

    The Shady McCoy a few of us bet over here is a standard bred, and he dont win poop either!!!!!!

     

    Yes, last won nearly two year ago at my local track. The horses connections keep running it in class 2 races. At 9 years old it isn't going to win one of them now. They're are very competitive handicaps.

     

    Time to give up on both horses I think!

    I played it in University in England but it was incredibly amateurish. My knee was sliced open by a jagged piece of metal on a lineman's facemask. 

       

     

    Which uni did you go to?

     

    I've been to watch our local university team and you're being kind calling it incredibly amateurish. 

     

    Yeah, for a constant stream of high calibre recruits it'd need to become a regular in the sporting calendar in schools and colleges and I can't see that happening.

    Pigs in a Blanket (mini hot dogs in pastry dough)

     

     

     

     

     

    Pigs in blankets are sausages wrapped in bacon. What's this filth you're advertising? ?

     

    Sounds more like you have a sausage roll there but with a hot dog and not a true sausage.

    I would think a soccer star would be easier to make punter.  

     

    And of course, we need one!!!

     

    I reckon a goalkeeper could. Has the natural timing for kicking a ball out of their hands. 

     

    Much like with Wade though, they'll have natural tendencies built up over years of playing a different sport which will hinder them. Most top level 'keepers tend to have a slightly side on approach to kicking the ball from their hands.

     

    Some of the old 1980's style goalkeepers who kicked the ball straight on would have made a good fist of punting!

    Sorry should have been clearer. I’m thinking of an actual shop I can buy these when I’m in the US. Save on extortionate postage to the UK if I can pick them up while I’m my trip.

  9. My son and I collect soccer stickers every time there’s a major international soccer tournament and complete the album.

     

    Over the years I’ve seen there’s an NFL version released every season. What is the best store to buy these from in Buffalo? I’m hoping to pick up an album and a box or two of stickers while we’re over next month. 

     

    Thanks.

    You know I have always thought that you are not a fan of the Buffalo Bills but just a troll from another team.

    Maybe others know and I just missed something.

    I checked on your "JOINED DATE" and low and behold it's October 29th 2017.

     

    That's the day the Bills beat the Raiders 34-14.

    Coincidence?

     

    The day the straw obviously broke the camel's back.

    Who's watching Hard Knocks?

     

    Peterman is doing the same old Peterman stuff out in California too.

     

    Gruden was actually giving it to him a little in the second episode.

     

    The kid just has no business being anywhere near an NFL football field.  

     

    I watched episode 2 last night. I was surprised by how little personality and enthusiasm Glennon and Peterman have. Seen more charm in a mass grave. You can see why Gruden had a pop at them. 

     

    I get the same impression when I see Josh Rosen. Although admittedly not seen him as close up he always seems to have a face like someone came into his house and pi$$ed on his kids at Christmas.
