  1. I think he'll end up all right if they can put a decent OLine in front of him.
  2. NFL defenses will shut down Brock Purdy as soon as they have some more film on him.
  3. I'm a little surprised they're releasing that info. If he has access to media, knowing what they know could give him a bit of an edge. I wish one of these guys would be bust out that we could actually root for. Unfortunately, guys you can root for don't typically end up in lockdown. At this point all I can hope for is that the little weasel doesn't hurt anybody out of desperation.
  4. With that big fat reward out there, I think I'd be avoiding populated areas like the plague, especially after the first couple days. I'd guess that the key to pulling something like that off would be to put as much distance between me and that prison as I could in the first 36-48 hrs.
  5. I'd say that the fact he's still in the area means he blew it already
  6. I was actually nervous for him on that offensive third down, when the Chiefs stacked the line and his OC then dove right into it. Those kinds of change of possession mistakes tends to stick out when hiring and firing time rolls around.
  7. Hmmmmmmmm........
  8. Thanks Bolo, Not picking up Sunday Ticket for the first time in 20+ years, I'm going to really appreciate this all season. 🤙
  9. Phat Pat may be my favorite Bill of all time but don't forget Kyle Williams first preseason when they had him out there against future insurance salesmen and he was just wrecking everything in sight. It was so ridiculous that I convinced myself it was my imagination and didn't believe it was for real until he started embarrassing NFL Guards a few weeks later. Sorry to hear you'll be inconvenienced
  10. Credit to Augie for this one.
  11. No, they had picked up 7 (to the TE that had been held at the LOS) and it was 2nd/3. He declined the 5yrd penalty that would have made it 1st/10 and took the 2yrds instead to make it 2nd/3. They ended up running the ball twice and picking up the first down by about 6". If they'd have been short, that decision might have cost them possession.
  12. They were actually very calm, didn't smell at all, weren't destructive and were comfortable as long as I was comfortable. They didn't travel as a group though, always coming and going one at a time. Another few days and I'd have probably started naming them.
  13. They're fun to play. Watching with no control over the outcome can be ....... not fun.
  14. Since we don't need a new thread every time some random media personality says something about the Bills, I'm just creating this thread to have a place to drop them.
  15. Probably, considering that he didn't end up in the hospital until a week later. Agreed on the confusion. The reports are not necessarily contradictory, but they just don't seem to mesh into a coherent narrative. Can't do much but hope for the best at this point.
  16. Apparently this was written by his father on the GoFundMe page they created: A steel beam falling on his head caused massive injuries but he never gained consciousness. After suffering a “massive” head injury, he also had massive swelling on his brain and would be paralyzed. “As a result of this accident, there was swelling on his brain and swelling on his spinal cord that was ruptured,” Williams’ father said. “These injuries resulted in complete paralysis in his right arm as well as his lower body from the waist down.
  17. No idea. I've never heard of paralysis in the lower extremities being the result of an infected head wound. I couldn't even begin to guess if that's possible.
  18. He's really got a knack for getting guys leaning the wrong way and then countering with his hands. I agree that veteran defenders are going to attempt to get physical with him, but I wouldn't be surprised to see those vets end up attacking air as often as not.
  19. Dogs are a game changer. I wouldn't have let any critters anywhere near me if she'd been with us. Golden Retrievers don't understand that the skunk does NOT want to play with them.
  20. A bit more info on Mike WIlliams: Two people close to Williams said his on-the-job accident was not initially thought to be life-threatening. He was hit in the head with a beam while doing electrical work on Aug. 21, a friend said, but his situation took a turn when his laceration became infected. Williams was hospitalized on Sept. 1 and eventually had to be induced him into a coma. Williams, 36, had been on life support this week after suffering complications from a workplace accident. He was taken off a ventilator Thursday evening but is surviving and remains responsive, according to Tierney Lyle, the mother of Williams’ 8-year-old daughter. Link to WIVB article
  21. Stupid question: If I sign up for YouTubeTV, and list my address as a P.O. Box somewhere with a Western New York zip code, can get network feeds from Buffalo and just pay my bills online?
  22. I was camped down in the Guadalupes this June where there are quite a few skunks, some of which have become pretty habituated to humans. After a couple days of getting comfortable with each other, we got to the point where I could be sitting around in the evening sipping a beer and one of them would walk under my camp chair and literally brush against my legs like a cat. I thought it was pretty cool but the Mrs was somewhat less impressed
  23. I learned that when you relocate them you should move them at least 5-10 miles away. If you don't, they can and will travel miles to find their way back to the spot they had already established.
  24. She's looking for privacy so you probably already ran her off. Look for raccoon scat (looks just like like smaller bear scat) while you're looking for her up there. In case she didn't bail, she hates light and noise so if you leave on some lights and/or plug in a radio up there for a few days that should encourage her to relocate. You could also put some male raccoon scent up there (they're predators to birthing females); you can find it online somewhere I'm sure. If you do end up having to handle her or little ones, get some wildlife or welders gloves. They can get a little tetchy when you grab them.
