Uh, I don't know about that Beck... he's lost a step. /s/

Trying to watch Rescue Hi-Serf during commercial, to relieve stress. BUT, it ain't Baywatch, so f-it.

Very quick math on KS last 17 games played (bearing in mind context @Alphadawg7 provided above): 67c/76t: 88% catch rate; 923yd @ 13.8yd/rec; 5td. Did not look at advanced stats, most importantly success rate, but I suspect they're... acceptable. Yeah, I'm biased, as he's my current favorite Bill. But, bottom line: not too bad for a 5th and as a ~WR2 (w addition of Coop/formerly Stef)...and trending up.

"If you knew Sushi, like I know sushi..." Been Nihon de wa many times, but mostly Tokyo I admit. Lucky enough to have some local female friends (err, the unpaid type) take me to the right places. Always off-the-charts delicious. @bigK14094: agree... whatever you do, don't add soy or wasabi. It's presented as meant to be consumed, sans condiments. @BarleyNY: agree... Fuji Grill Maple is pretty damn good. Not tried the one in NF near me, so reserve judgement. @Big Turk: little older than you but also a workout fiend. Anyway, go for the sashimi brother: it's like mainlining high density protein/good fats w zero carbs. Sweet, sweet muscle juice, legal variety. Expose ends.

I agree w you Sooner, sincerely. But, right now, I'm solely focused on Phins. I want heads on gd pikes ...as in Heads on F-ing Pikes boys!! Then we can (virtually) end AFCE and move to other targets.

Thank you for this: was watching on an an LA-NYC flight, sitting next to another Bills fan, and we both lost our minds, very loudly. Other passengers thought we were terrorists. Anyway, this play still drives me bat-sht crazy when I think about it (even if it was a "by-rule" call, or whatever).

Non- tendentious question as possible: is this sarcasm or a real, passive aggressive statement?

No worries. I'll just imagine the great flavors...and the JKC Wings franchises, soon to open.

@HIT BY SPIKES If you get a chance, please post image of the final JKC wings or, hell, even what they look like in the marinade. Very interesting approach: well done, sir.

Warning: random, non-sequitur stat incoming. Since Philly, Bills 8-1. Meanwhile, w no correlation specifically implied, Shakir is 32/35 on targets, 91.4%. I get it: there's YPC, Success rate, small sample, arbitrary, etc, etc. Just thought this was, ya know, interesting...

Spikes: well done ref American Legion vets.

May have mentioned before but: OMF you are one salty, clever m'fer. Remind me not to get into a comment battle with you!

Mind blown. Officially. B/c, quite literally, I just re-watched Pulp Fiction last night. I was picturing Vince Vega, tapping out TBD comments, while fully baked at Jack Rabbit Slim's.

Love you brother, but I'm pretty sure you're high right now.

Agree...I think it comes down to freakish athletic talent (and hard work). Ex: I am friendly-ish w a fmr Bills DB, and he's definitely "small" in football terms. But, I've played both basketball and hockey w this guy: his athleticism, even in retirement, blows my mind.

17 needs to elevate his game, and stop doing "regular guy" podcasts. I mean, would Patrick (or his dad) ever appear in such a forum? //s

Before this goes to PPP, I'll beat this dead horse until the plow heart stops beating. I see @Simonis looking sci-fi but--w Prime, etc--there are gems beyond the genre that are brilliant. Prime ex: American Fiction, 2023. Best movie I've seen in many years. I fully understand the African-American lens around which it has been framed. But the film, ultimately, is a profound story of every family, ethical dilemmas, love lost/gained...and etc. Since this is not an Ebert review I'll leave it there.

Thanks to @Jerry Jabberfor WR vid updates, as I don't do X. My deeply insightful mini-camp conclusion: Jesus, 17 has a friggin' cannon. Still amazing to watch.

Returning to OP point re team philosophy, specifically on O... I look back at the '20 season, esp the LAR game, much hyped at the time. More specifically, I reviewed the 4-in-a-row TD drives of, effectively, matriculation (h/t @oldmanfan) combined with 17 arm strength, plus. Going thru all play-by-plays over the last few seasons, I suspect this game is the rough outline of what we'll see in '24. Side note: looking back again reminds me of how important CB was to the efficiency of the offense. I get it, Beas is a polarizing figure here, but damn...

Depends on how loosely we define "revived career"...but suggest a good example might be Tony Mandarich. We all know the story of mayhem and self-destruction. And, yet, 4(?) years after his Packer release, he came back for 3 decent seasons w the Colts. I mention simply b/c I didn't see his name up-thread.

This is, clearly, the most important post in the thread. As a yute, I was madly in love w Sara Gilbert, irrespective of her own preferences, of which I was somehow aware. Anyway...based on your comment, I don't have the courage to look up a current pic.

Great, great comment. I'll only continue this sub-thread b/c...people should know and, hell, it's off-season. Context, briefly: I was low-kinetic** until 9-11. Thereafter, very high-kinetic--war, yada, yada--for fifteen straight yrs, starting when I was basically an old m'fer (37yo). My point: in every theater, men and women--across the age-gaps--worked and fought together with purpose. I suppose "seamlessly" might be a fair description. Just one of many, many examples: ran a few times w 1-506th and 2-506th, in various AOs. Being an old friggin bastard, it almost brings me to tears thinking about the courage, fidelity and professionalism of these, well,..."kids". Some Millennials, mostly Xs and, towards the end, even a few Zs. Interested to know what @Iraq Vet or others think, but that is my particular experience. Anyway: I think we're in pretty good shape across the Gens, no matter the crap-talking (usually good-natured) back and forth. Rant ends. **JA17 double-entendre.

Generally agree with your comments re: Mahomes and SB performance. But, just to be fully accurate, JA has 26 total TDs and 4 TOs in 10 post-season games (not incl reception TD). As we all know, rushing is a big part of his game.

Gotta dig the guy standing next to the Porta Potty, on his phone...wearing a Bates jersey. Hardcore, man.

Double dipping. That's hardcore fandom. Well done sir.
