You tagged my on the last one and I will again concede. You speak much more eloquently than I at how he has won the votes of the disenfranchised. That said, aren't we all just pissed at this point? I mean, we don't know how to break the cycle. So much damn money is floating around it can't be broke. Our solution is basically dropping a second atomic bomb on Hiroshima. Who is the next one up? Is this going to go the way of celebrity presidents? I feel like the movie Idiocracy is playing out before our eyes.

I'm independent, but your first statement......"He's in the White House for a reason". Ok..... Clinton was a god awful candidate and Joe Biden will be next. Masses are A$$es. Trump won the election based on excellent marketing, branding of his name, and further dividing party lines. All the while being afforded the ability to say literally anything because nobody could ever pretend to fact check a human being that embellishes at the rate he does. While having the privileges almost no american receives he managed to fail at almost everything he has ever done outside of a TV show and branding his name. His name is so well branded with success it makes citizens think he has at some point in his life been successful in business, which is not true in any capacity. By any practical measure he is an utterly horrible business man. They actually had to make a fake set for the Apprentice because his actual office was so deplorable it wouldn't work. Moving along, he somehow wins votes from people who don't make a lot of money and are very pissed off about the income disparities in this country. That said, Trump would never help somebody or put measures in play that help people in a sub 75k income bracket. Why these people vote for him I don't know. He's rich and they also want to be rich? Break the status quo and turn it into the WWE? If you make 100k+ I get it. He helps your bottom-line and every candidate pretty much sucks, so if that's the case go with the one who benefits you most. At this point I would just settle for somebody that is presidential and doesn't spend half his life on Twitter.

Fair

Trumps a disgrace along with his gathering of poor inbreeds. If you make 100k plus I can tolerate why you might vote for the guy, but that's about it. Joe Biden is a moron limp crotch but at least he will be around smart people, listen, and behave presidential. Unfortunately what I just said means we will likely get 4 more years of twitter king.

As some have pointed out you have to make Andre one, but as far as talent, it's very close. Moulds is extremely underrated and one of my favorite Bills of all time to watch. Really no holes in his game.

Well said. Now the players do have a powerful union. So this could lead to a very ugly situation. As another poster mentioned, I see no practical way to accomplish this by cutting players to get below the number. It would have to be a reduction as a % of the the total cap spent. So if a guy make 16 million, now he makes 8 million. That is unless you want the open market to just take over at which point roster turnover would be inconceivable. Hell, I wonder if teams would even opt to carry a full roster if that's the case.

I don't mind smoking, certainly indulge from time to time. I don't work for a company that does testing and they have a fairly liberal outlook on it. That said if your job was on the line and you had to quit but couldn't. This is marijuana we are talking about. A substance I can use for years straight and stop immediately with no side effects outside mild irritability for a day or two. If you can't stop, I don't think I could ever employee somebody at even 50k a year, let alone several hundred thousand to a million. It's different in the league now, marijuana, so directly, it's not an issue for him anymore. But his past actions show his character likely still is. I wouldn't touch him with somebody else's dixie.

Yes, actually overturned an INT if I recall, Bengals/Browns game at Cleveland.

Dude, I post like 20 times a year at this point. So it really says something if I read what you wrote and felt it was competitive for dumbest things I ever read. I’ve been a manger or director for call centers my whole life and the mantra I preach is “one more”. Lord help me if some competitor finds out a few buzz words I use to motivate my staff. I’ll be ruined. Does secrecy matter? Sure. But only when you have some proprietary procedure that does give you a competitive advantage. I don’t see old Sean discussing things like that and “find a way” is not exactly move the earth material.

This is a pretty awful post. Not the worst ever, but it’s competitive.

Was my favorite game of all time, was a devastated when it got axed. I still have a 360 and the last version of the game and bust it out from time to time. Lots of Mods out there to the game if you want to keep playing it in a more updated way. If you asked most college football players (plenty of articles on this) many were very pissed and found a ton of satisfaction being in the game. I do think we will see a deal cut with the actual universities for team logos and stadium use and or a fully customized game where the community can essentially build whatever they want in the next 2 years. I have no interest in Madden, never really did outside of it's really early years. I did love Front Page Sports Pro Football on the Computer, that was a sim well beyond it's time, I also love the 2k NFL series which is probably among the best football games ever made. Unfortunately EA just swallowed everybody on exclusive rights. No competition. No good products. Just marginal updates each year. Not sure if that's how you feel as well. Vent over.

I for one love the Moss pick and don't find athleticism issues I think some derive from his 40 time. 40's and RB's are for the college game. Even elite RB speed gets marginalized in today's game. How are they within 10-15 yards? With Singletary I knew the answer because I watched a lot of him at FAU. I know the answer with Moss as well. Very explosive, generates incredible torque with his hips and legs. Very athletic. Powerful, powerful dude. I can't imagine having to chase around Singletary's tiny, slippery A$$, never getting to square up and then next in comes another seemingly tiny, oh sheeet...that hurt. I do not like the Frohm pick at all. That was a process pick all the way but we will see. I'm happy with the outcome as a whole. We nailed what was technically our 1st 3 picks from where I sit and the rest at that point are always 50/50.

I think our path is treatment. If you want to hinge this on a vaccine we won’t have a season. If we can get treatments in place that bring the mortality rate down to what amounts to the flu then we likely get somewhere. With how much is to be gained financially from an effective treatment, I’m bullish. I doubt any virus in the history of mankind will have as much money thrown at it as this one in this short a time.

I like yards per play and points. But even then, both stats have shortcomings. You need to really look at several stats as a whole

Same thing I always do, take advantage of public perception and theories that aren't back by any evidence.

When they first brought up March Madness, I didn't think any chance of that happening could occur. If this experience has taught me one thing it's that everybody involved keeps underestimating it's ability to disrupt normal life from work/business to athletics and everything in between. Without a vaccine I think at best we will see a shortened MLB season and likely outright CXL and if that is the case we could be looking at NCAA and NFL being at risk for 2020. Picture how much better it needs to get for us to allow 80,000 people in a stadium?

It was a great trade for us. Our window is with Allen on his rookie contract. We draft a WR #1 and it's a high probability he never becomes as good as Diggs and virtually 100% he won't be as good this year.

I like to see severe contrast between RB's. Somebody like Dillion makes a lot of sense, Just seeing his comps comparing to Henry then the production at BC. He passes the eye test. Dobbins is also a very talented RB. Not as much contrast but dynamic. I would be thrilled with either of them.

Norman got paid and treated like a lock down but he was better as a zone guy. That's what can be nice at times about our scheme. We can get value out of players other teams just can't and we seem to be good at identifying those players. I don't really care much about Norman but if the front office thinks he's the right fit it would be an exciting signing.

That was a remarkable play. McGee was electric. Probably wouldn't be my #1, but he was fun to watch.

I don't think it was him as much as his competition. He paved the way for blow hard sports reporters. Once he was playing against the same competition he wasn't as dynamic.

I remember the day of the Titans loss my VP sent out his "Playoff video". He posted it on Twitter the morning of the game. Basically something about them being the main predator ready to kill weaker prey or some crap like that. Another guy I work with said the Patriots are going to roll. I have been noticing this stuff all year with Brady. He seems to be building a hype machine in a way. In the past he never did. I looked at that Video the opposite of my co-worker. You never heard a word from the GOAT Brady. He was nearly invisible. Now he seems to be battling relevance, age, ego. It will be an interesting couple of years of entertainment. As far as GOAT Brady he's not putting a team on his back anymore. Those days are over.

5,934 yards and 43 TD's in 7 seasons with the Bills. Josh Brown by comparison, 4,290 yards and 28 TD's in 6 seasons so far. Neither had the best QB's throwing them the ball. Nod to Evans in that area with a slightly higher margin of crap QB's. Another nod to Evans not playing in as much of a passing era. Evans was always a threat to take the top off a defense and was a high character player. We could do a lot worse than Lee Evans.

Both are white as the OP indicates while simultaneously implying that a black WR just has to drop his Johnson on the field and that will get results (Nothing to see here)

It will be interesting, I think a lot more for us Bills fans than anybody else. Not only did we live it ourselves (watching a perennial elite team erode as our QB retired) but they're in our division and dominated us for 20 years. Unlike Buffalo, New England had little fan support prior. It is going to be a very sharp decline. Also not that scared of BB. He's damn good, but he showed plenty of signs that he didn't know what the hell to do this year when Brady was sputtering out. People site the Cassel 10-6 year a lot (see what Bill can do without Brady). Well, we will see. I imagine both are gone soon enough, but New England minus the greatest QB of all time is not New England and that statement is true if Brady plays for them or doesn't next year.
