Practice Wed 8/16 starting with Dorsey interview
JoPoy88 replied to Beck Water's topic in The Stadium Wall
Can personally attest through my various fantasy leagues - yeah he was very intriguing to a lot of people coming in in ‘19 for Arizona. For whatever reason or reasons his production just never materialized. I hope for his sake and ours that was more of a function of the Cardinals being a joke. -
Practice Wed 8/16 starting with Dorsey interview
JoPoy88 replied to Beck Water's topic in The Stadium Wall
I mean, no one at that end of the roster is truly 100% safe, but yeah I can’t see them cutting him after one year either. -
Just in case anyone missed it - from Monday. Dude’s a character. Interview starts at 39:47 mark. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pardon-my-take/id1089022756?i=1000624355713

Gazoo Helmets an Option For Players ???????????????
JoPoy88 replied to Irv's topic in The Stadium Wall
https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/32140546/guardian-caps-soft-shelled-football-helmet-covers-effective-limiting-head-injuries there is no long term data on tech that’s been in use for 2-3 years, obviously. They’re called Guardian Caps for the all the non-wannabe comedians out there. -
Yeah, he was “basically” adopted - so he got none of the legal benefits of being “legally” adopted…but yeah, as you say, no harm no foul right? (And it’s nothing like common law marriage. Common law marriage literally *IS* marriage in the states that allow it. So that analogy falls out your window and splatters on the pavement immediately.) And then you point out the fact that these people lied about it both in the book (written by Mr. Tuohy’s buddy from high school) and in the movie. Very “peculiar” as you say. I had little doubt of what you are, but thanks for eliminating that.

Exactly. Guess the prevailing opinion in this case at this board is “he got got” and it’s all good. Guess his white saviors get to profit on the story more than him, even though without Oher and his talent and subsequent success there is no story at all. This place surprises me more and more every day. And mostly not in a good way.

Stadium Construction Discussion (No PSL/Seat selection posts)
JoPoy88 replied to JÂy RÛßeÒ's topic in The Stadium Wall
This barely readable crusade of yours is getting very old. -
yeah my fiends and I got very, very coordinated to try to hunt all of those things down going to any and every Noco in the area. We’ve got them all. Ain’t worth s**t. And it’ll be the same deal with these stupid things - all they’re doing is adding stress to Wegmans’ employees lives.
-
From sources outside of this board, yeah, people are for some reason getting nuts about these things. there is very little chance things like this will ever be worth anything. One-off promos can sometimes do well in the collector market, but it’s rare. Local folks - Remember 2005-2006 with the Sabres coins from Noco gas stations? What are they going for nowadays?
-
Yes but looking at outside sources (draft analyst sites, etc., who, obviously don’t know everything either) I think they sort of agree with Beane on his “1st round” grades, at least for Elam and Kincaid. Maybe not so much with Rousseau but he seems to be coming along nicely. I do think you’re right about the “last 1st rd grade left” point though. I think Beane’s just throwing an extra justification on there for having to trade up slightly for these guys.

Honestly it f***** me up the first time I realized Liev was the narrator for all this stuff (and he narrates a TON of stuff) - I am very familiar with his acting work but I never watch the credits on anything. They put so much compression on his voiceover I still can’t believe it’s him. He’s top notch though, and it was cool to see him finally visit. Method Man gets a pass for any and all bad fandoms.
-
first time I’ve read this post and unsure why you’ve received so many negative reactions because it’s a perfectly valid question but I would not sign him now - understanding that his high ankle sprain hindered him all last year I would still want to see another season of him (hopefully fully healthy) in order to figure that out. If he’s lights out awesome yeah he’ll get interest but Beane can find a way to pay and keep him. If he’s not so great, well, some other team will pay a premium and the Bills will move on.

They brought out Method Man and Liev Schreiber so the 1st episode still gets a B+ from me.

Jonny Manziel documentary on Netflix is great
JoPoy88 replied to JerseyBills's topic in The Stadium Wall
💯 Which is also, by the way, no one should be up here crucifying Beane (or any other GM, for that matter) for “missing” or “choking” on draft selections. GMs and their scouts do their best but the talent gap between college ball (even in the big 5 conferences) and the pros is immense. -
Stadium Construction Discussion (No PSL/Seat selection posts)
JoPoy88 replied to JÂy RÛßeÒ's topic in The Stadium Wall
exactly. You could build a $5billion dollar indoor palace up here and you still wouldn’t have the infrastructure or accommodations to support a Super Bowl or anything close to it. A big ol’ fancy stadium alone isn’t going to entice that type of development on its own either. That’s why I laugh at this arguments being made for the domed stadium that say: “well an open air joint is only good for one thing and that’s football 12 times a year” Guess what? An enclosed stadium here wouldn’t draw much more.
