Yes, they came out of UB. I think them and Spyro Gyra are the only acceptable answers to this question. 👍

Enjoy it while you can

Found this interesting Where are They Now:

I had no idea those guys were from Buffalo. 🤯 I got a huge kick out of this back in the day:
-
If he slides, the window to Shakir slams shut and it's a scramble drill. He trusted Dawkins to give him one more step and it just didn't work out. It kind of even fouled up the following 3rd down where Allen immediately bailed right to get away from that matchup and it took away the entire left side of the field, which was where that ball ultimately needed to go.

Who was invited to Josh and Hailee's wedding?
Simon replied to Willie West's topic in The Stadium Wall
At some point he's going to find white feather boas hanging in his locker -
He was completely toying with them from the second he brought that puck in. I think it was literally one of the greatest 20 seconds of stick-handling I've ever seen. I want to see a replay of the whole sequence instead of just the tail end they need to show.

Did he drop it gently over the glass with a loft wedge so it landed like a butterfly with sore feet? Or was it more a protecting the plate/bloop foul ball into the stands that landed in some ho's kielbasa and coated her cleavage with delicious spicy mustard? Or did he point to a crying baby in the second level and then rip a biscuit right into it's annoying, toothless gob?

TL:DR The only one of those "products" even bearing a remote resemblance to the NFL is college ball, so one could accept it as its only "competition", albeit at a stretch. In reality I do pay for both the NFL and college ball every time I frequently send DTV $100+ and that's a fairly hefty price because, with the Sabres being irrelevant and unwatchable, football is literally the only time I voluntarily turn on my TV. The problem arises when those networks choose to limit my viewing options of that product without giving me any reasonable choice in the matter (blackout shenanigans in publicly funded stadiums, colluding to limit windows, privatizing specific broadcasts for additional lucre, etc). They've gravitated to such an underhanded, self-serving, contemptuous business model that they've alienated many good folks who no longer feel any moral obligation to uphold what could be a respectful product/patronage relationship. If they were to at least to make any effort whatsoever to show a modicum of respect toward their monopolized audience, I'd be happy to reward that respect with the monetization they're seeking. But instead they have chosen to not only disregard, but to actively disdain that mutual relationship. Their abandonment of that historically successful and requited obligation is the direct cause of me choosing to abandon my own part in that relationship, and to do so without the guilt or regret I'd typically feel if I were to disregard the needs of a more considerate and honest business. Short version: *****'em; they've earned it.

A restaurant has competition and must cater to its customers to make money. The NFL has no competition and takes advantage of that fact by maximizing profits with less than zero regard for its customer's wants or needs. I've recently lost any qualms I may have once had about honesty and fair play when it comes to the NFL. If you want to consider me a thief for "stealing" from unethical robber barons, so be it.

I'd be right there with you but I have rewatched the Miracle on Ice.

Joe Brady says Dalton "lived here this offseason"

You can laugh 'til the cows come home but it's exactly what happened. -

Simon replied to sunshynman's topic in The Stadium Wall
Read the whole field on his drop like he's supposed to instead of being locked into the trips on his left and then running directly into a blitz he never saw. -
And then make it pay you to fix it's teef!

What do the Bills have to show for the Allen era? Hope they don't make that mistake again.

And one of the genuinely best kids in the NFL as well.

Cardi said he was pulling down balls in Mass. Is that not what she meant?

I'm starting to think that Bill may not have an abiding interest in maintaining peace in the valley.
