Seahawks trade for Jamal Adams
Billy Claude replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Was that in a tweet? If that's the case, the Bills had better extend him before he hits the open market since I don`t think the Bills will be willing him pay him 15% moee then other teams. -
Seahawks trade for Jamal Adams
Billy Claude replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Do state taxes really matter when you are making that much? Lebron chose to go to LA, Durant chose to go to the Warriors and then the Nets and Kyrie Irving chose to go to the Nets even those those states have the highest state taxes. It's primary getting the biggest number as an ego trip. You can`t get less than Kirk Cousins if you think you`re better. -
Another big difference is that the EPL only had six players (out ot 748) tested positive on the restart and 10 in the Bundesliga. The NBA on the other hand had about 5% tested positive,

I would think that McDermott`s designation of a game management coach in March (Marc Lubick) is essentially an admission that he wasn`t very good at it.

Chad Kelly is Ready to Race!
Billy Claude replied to NoHuddleKelly12's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The Colts claim that it will be an open battle between their 4th round draft choice Jacob Eason and Chad Kelly for #3 QB but I assume nobody believes that. Barring injuries Kelly has no chance to be on the Colts roster this year. Probably best start looking for alternative careers. -
Washington Redskins: 15 women claim sexual harassment

Did they ever admit anything with the cheerleader scandal? Pressuring cheerleaders to escort sponsors and pose topless seems to me to be a higher level. -
Michael Lombardi hints Dareus to the Patriots
Billy Claude replied to Estro's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Plenty failed -- Albert Haynesworth, Josh Gordon just off the top of my head but I am sure there are plenty others. -
I agree. There is no need to bash a guy just because he is not on the Bills anymore. Shaq was pretty good the last half of 2018 and better than that in 2019. Clearly the Bills wanted him back. Beane said so at the post season press conference. The Bills made a competitive offer to Shaq (versus Jordan Phillips who they did not make an offer to). They just didn't want him as much as the Dolphins. Maybe they didn't match because they were thinking of Addison as an alternative during the Lawson negotiations but obviously we will never know.

I really thought after the Philadelphia-Washington-Cleveland stretch where the Bill's run defense got gashed that the league had figured something out about the Bill's defense, I was very impressed that they were able to make adjustments and essentially shut down the opponent run game the rest of the year. I assume that at least some of the credit had to go to a more disciplined Edmunds (though probably most is due to Frazier and McDermott),

Kim Pegula: Regular Season Finale (Headset)
Billy Claude replied to KellyToTasker's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I am sure it was not a coincidence that she chose a meaningless game to do this rather than, say, the Ravens game. I assume she didn't want to affect the coaches. No big deal although it would certainly be a issue if she does this all the time. I noticed that there was an another article saying that the most important thing she looks for in a coach is authenticity. I assume that is a lesson learn from the Rex Ryan fiasco. -
Mehta was pro-Gase when the Jets hired Gase but that changed pretty quickly. Mehta is not a great judge of coaches -- he also criticized the Jets when they fired Rex Ryan.
-
I am not saying Mehta is not right -- just that the article is a rehash of general jets stuff that is not specific to Adams. Mehta does seem to have something personal again Gase but Gase has done enough publicly (such as throwing players under the bus in press conferences and posting player fines in the training facilities plus all the stuff that former Dolphins said) that I believe that many players hate playing for him.
-
Not that it is not true, but these are just random generalities from Mehta most of which is not even about Adams. One can hardly trust what Mehta says about Gase.

Does the NFL have a bubble plan? Covid rising
Billy Claude replied to Ramza86's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Unfortunately masks are only effective if most people use them. Masks don't really protect the wearer (maybe a little), it protects the people around the wearer. Wearing a mask is a minor inconvenience. To me wearing a mask in an indoor public place is a courtesy similar to turning your face when you sneeze. When and how opening occurs should be a political issue. Masks should not have been a political issue. It should just be common sense. -
Fracking industry projected to have $300B in losses
Billy Claude replied to cage's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Fracking has not been profitable for many years. https://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/article/will-fracking-industry-debts-set-off-financial-tremors/ https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-shale-outlook/u-s-shale-producers-to-tap-brakes-in-2020-after-years-of-rapid-growth-idUSKBN1Z108U Both articles are from well before the COV-19 impact on oil prices. The Pegulas were very smart (or lucky) to sell when they did. The Sabres payroll was the fifth highest in the NHL. It makes sense that if things aren't working, you don't continue doing it. -
Too-early prediction - Last Place in AFC East ???
Billy Claude replied to CSBill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Excellent point there. The same applies to last season -- the Patriots, Jets, Dolphins and Bills had similar schedules (taking out the games played within the division) so an argument that the Bills had an easy schedule in 2019 also applies for all the other teams in the division. -

The guy obviously does not do well at casinos. It's probability 101.
