  1. What’s the under/over he makes it through a full season?
  2. This ^^^ I’m no angel, and have had a run in with the law as a youngster, and I turned out to be a decent human being, and Ed likely will as well. I have no qualms with youngsters smoking pot , drinking etc, It is that when one is older, one has the benefit of life experience/hind sight to be able to say some old guy adages about youth being wasted on the young... when you’re young you haven’t lived long enough to make good decisions all the time, it is just the truth of how life works. When I was young I had a high tolerance for risk, so I broke a variety of laws and had a damn good time doing it, I jumped out of a perfectly good airplane, joined the Marine Corp, etc etc, when I look back at the things I involved myself in, I’m lucky I’m still alive... Ed will have a similar moment when he is an old fart too. This is no big deal in all reality, we are only upset because it sticks a pin in our football bubble. I’m gonna get a beer and go down the YouTube rabbit hole, see you all later, ?? Go Bills!!!
  3. Well, imo the team will proceed as if Ed Oliver is not on the team, next man up. An opportunity for someone has come knocking...who opens the door? That is now the question. Oh well, as sands through the hour glass go the days of our football lives. edit; proceed as if he won’t be playing the first few games of the season... Go Bills!!!
  4. Maybe being it’s Texas and guns are a given, and Football is bigger than god, that and alcohol drive throughs exist, this could be a slap on the wrist sort of deal, no big deal right... ??
  5. I didn’t say pointy white hat, burning cross stuff, I said lean towards, and yes you can say you don’t like Cam Newton for valid reasons, I’m talking about people’s generational biases that have the result of... excluding people’s opportunities in a unconscious passive fashion that has been normalized, meaning they don’t even realize they are acting in such a fashion, people do these sorts of things. Call it what you will, I call it racial bias.
  6. Maybe, in my experience a substantial minority, pushing fifty percent of folk in the white world I grew up in in western New York tend to lean towards being, shall we say, racially biased. And that has held true in the many places in America I have lived. Next time you see a confederate flag on someone’s automobile or house ask yourself the question...nuthin but luv, just a honest observation. Go Bills!!!
  7. Brilliant! A black stadium in a desert, I want half of one percent of the cost to air condition the place, I will be able to retire twenty years ago...
  8. We all know that “some” won’t be able to wrap there brain around Allen succeeding on any level. They will wear themselves out talking around any success. It is good to see Allen continue to refine/become more efficient in his craft, the kid is relentless in his desire to succeed. Gotta like that ! Go Bills!!!
  9. Agree, advocating an organization wide systematic cheating scheme is not something to aspire too.
  10. You can bet your backside that employees means anyone your company hires to be in the building, be it hiring contractors or direct hires. No way around that.
  11. Blah blah blah, 10-6 & playoffs equals top half of the league. Go Bills!!!
  12. I think the only measure is wins, regular and post season. I think he may very well hit top ten what ever that is.
  13. This will be a testy thread, some folk don’t think there is racism or racial inequality on any level in America, I for one know that there is. It is good that the NFL has the balls to discus the topic, where it will go remains to be seen. Go Bills!!!
  14. As much as I have my own desire for a down town stadium, with the current economic situation that is unlikely to get better soon. New Era is where the Bills will be playing for the next two decades at minimum. Imo this stadium discussion is officially shelved for the foreseeable future. Unless Terry and Kim foot the total bill. Go Bills!!!
  15. Number two, and that could have been different if he had JK as his QB for most of his career. It would have been nice if he was on those teams, ?
  16. Ordinarily all the things you have listed are likely to happen multiple times per game. The deal is a lot of receivers don’t have the well rounded skill set to be able to do all those things well. Blame it on variations in human physiology and cognitive capacity. We have all seen drops that are not recorded as such, Zay Jones for instance... ?? Go Bills!!!
  17. Allen’s biggest issue passing wise over the past two seasons is that by and large he has had mostly CRAP for receivers, the drop rate for the receivers group as a whole for the last two seasons has been abysmal. We have lost or struggled in many games directly because of this issue. How many times have we thrown our hands in the air and said WTF... when a pass has been dropped at a crucial moment in games? (Hurts to think about it doesn’t it) It certainly takes two to tango no doubt , but the ever coveted passer percentage, yards per attempt, points and wins all get better when the receivers group isn’t dropping close to thirty five passes every season. My shrink says I should work harder at expressing my feelings so that I am more clear about how I view this issue ?? Go Bills!!!
