Now it's time as the start of our "window" to bring the hay into the barn with all that $$, while Josh is still signed up to a team-friendly rookie deal. We are well on our way though, imho. Great find, Shady!

Very selective, I didn’t buy any after Kelly until deciding to take the plunge and buying Allen’s away jersey after the Vikes game that officially put me “all-in.” My youngest was born that same day 9/23, so with all the good things that happened that day, it was kinda meant to be . Yikes—I’m guessing you’re selling on eBay as collectors’ items?

Just one more reason not to join the virtual cacophony that is Twitter. Thanks OJ.

Great post—it’s hard to believe the difference in depth this regime was able to manufacture over the course of only one offseason. That’s the fruit of taking your salary cap lumps/medicine all at once last year too.

If you’re a father, earn your yearly accolades by being present in the moment every other day too—and since we all mess up, each new day is a new chance to get it right. Remember, you’re only a failure if your kids end up being Patriots fans

A mistaken conclusion reached via a faulty premise which places too much emphasis on the future remaining a static outgrowth of the present...but it's all good. Much like "wrong Josh" type hot takes have faded into obscurity, I have no doubt that NE supremacy and its defenders, are about to go the way of the Dodo bird. Such is the nature of things over time.

I don't see a downside here. A big part of what they need to do with this squad of so many new FA's and rookies coming in, is build up the "team" component in a hurry--what better way than with a letting loose sort of fun event for the guys to all feel good about? There will still be plenty of time for the x's and o's outside of this one practice session. This is what "process" looks like people!

Sobering. Hope it turns out ok, hate to see something like this!

There’s a different feel to this team from the past generation of going nowhere squads that is evident and palpable imho, in a good way.

Move on Josh, nothing of value to see here . In all seriousness, thanks much for posting OP! Great find.

Oh yeah, it’s still the offseason.

Why does Allen have to go and make himself more likable every day? This kid sure seems like the real deal in so many ways!

Kudos Bills. Whichever intern thought this up should be brought on board full time. Carry on.

I’m with ya. 1.15M I could’ve still stomached, but this, this just ain’t right—1.5M to play a game???

This is one of the craziest/best ever runs by a QB in NFL history--but I'm still picking Montana overall as the best franchise QB for them:

I thought at first you were talking about the one thing you wouldn't do is make the infamous 5K bet against the Bills? I think I'd buy some pre-wrapped sausages and bacon, and maybe a fur coat (but not a real fur coat, that's cruel)...oh, wait, that's for the if I had a million dollars thread, never mind. Probably would be spent by the missus before I could figure out what I wanted to do with it.

It was US captivity, not Russian. My great-uncle though did die fighting the Russians in the Balkans (Hungary) sector around the same time. Your point is well taken. Usually no quarter asked, and none given, on the Eastern front.

Because obviously their emotional support is worth more than your sinuses

Did he though? Bills owned the overall W-L against the Fish during that time, and Marino, Clayton, Duper et al were 0-3 against the Bills in the playoffs IIRC

I wonder if those of you picking Reggie would’ve changed your vote had Hostetler fumbled the ball when Bruce got to him in SBXXV and inexplicably held on with one hand? Obviously more points than a safety there would’ve won the ballgame...

I have nothing but the utmost respect for those brave enough to do their duty to the last, in the face of likely harm or untimely death, of which there was way too much of around this time. Was a bit hesitant to disclose this given that this thread (rightly so) is honoring those who embarked on D-Day 75 years ago today, but both of my grandfathers served in the German army during the war, one of whom saw action on the Western front (not during D-Day, but starting in September 44 until he became a POW in early April 45), although the bulk of most of their time was spent on the Eastern front fighting the Red Army. Anyway, FWIW, this same grandfather ended up coming to the US in the early 70's, became a US citizen, and eventually counted among his dearest and closest friends, multiple former GI's of his same generation. I will never forget being around them as a youngster, listening in awe as they shared wartime stories/experiences with each other during lunch get-togethers at his house, and seeing the obvious respect each had for the other as fellow former soldiers regardless of uniform, a shared experience that anyone who's never served would not be quite able to understand? The craziest part was that one of his former GI buddies in particular, was able to pinpoint down to the exact sector their respective unit locations around the time of the start of the Battle of the Bulge, and that they would have been facing each other in the same section of the front! The lesson this taught me early on was that underneath our ethnic pasts, are similarities forged through shared experiences that can be the basis for common ground and yes, even so far as to have former sworn enemies becoming the closest of friends 30-40+ years (at that time) later.

pork chops (bone in or out) put in a glazed ceramic “bean pot” and smothered in BBQ sauce before baking at 400 for 45-60 min, usually is great for a no fuss dinner meat also. I imagine other similar cookware would do the trick as well.

Weisswurst. A Bavarian specialty that is either boiled or grilled, best with a spicy brown mustard. “Knackwurst” is also up there.

And don’t be that guy in the turn lane already, who pretends not to see the guy with the blinker on desperately trying to merge into said turn lane; I mean really, is it a matter of life or death if you’re the 4th car in line or the 5th??? Will the mac n cheese taste any better or worse if you eat it 20 seconds after you first could have otherwise???

^^^^^This excerpt from Josh’s presser transcript may come as a shock for those of you who imagine football concepts used today were just invented during last year’s offseason, and there’s nothing qualitative to be gleaned as a result. Hope you’re sitting down!
