Have you ever seen so many teams "give up" to a team before
RangerDave replied to Sharky7337's topic in The Stadium Wall
I did notice that after the 2 minites warning, Rodgers threw a complete pass. The receiver stayed inbounds and it took them 30 seconds to start the next play. There was no sense of urgency from what I saw. Two minutes to go and down only ten points.... Josh would be balling! -
I'm pretty sure my wife lobbied Congress to get this....

Hmmm... Maybe I'll have to change mine to Biff Beeper. Always loved that name. Until then, I am Dave and I was a Park Ranger for 30 years.

Bills fans help old man in Steelers jersey during game
RangerDave replied to BoccesOnTransit's topic in The Stadium Wall
Unfortunately, common courtesy is not as common as it used to be. 🙄 -
Washington Commanders are bouncing checks

Maybe someone should tell Snyder about the Mint app? -
A Few Thoughts about the Chiefs Game, in no particular order
RangerDave replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall
I agree that the defense has been playing lights out. We have some excellent players and coaches. They do need to work on ine thing though: third and long plays! Man, are they frustrating at times. -
I was really hoping he would get 100 yards in rushing to end that drought, but I think his effective rushing lead to the Chiefs playing the run more which loosened up the longer pass game.

THE ROCKPILE REVIEW - Bills Win in Kansas City, 24-20
RangerDave replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall
I can't remember. When was the last time a Bills RB had a 100 yard game? -
Week 6, 10/16/2022, Bills v. Chefs GAME BALLS
RangerDave replied to Freddie's Dead's topic in The Stadium Wall
Should we give a game ball to the guy who bet $80,000 on the Chiefs? He probably can't afford to buy one for himself now. -
Week 6, 10/16/2022, Bills v. Chefs GAME BALLS
RangerDave replied to Freddie's Dead's topic in The Stadium Wall
Winning this game...the way they did...everyone gets a game ball! (Maybe even McKenzie 🙄) -
I remember when October/November would hit and I would start thinking, "Well, it's on to Sabres season now. Nothing to see with the Bills anymore."
-
I remember telling my friends, "Wait 'til the year after next!" (Because I knew we would suck the next year, too.....)

Trade Deadline (Nov 1) Bills Rumors / Speculation
RangerDave replied to Warriorspikes51's topic in The Stadium Wall
The Rams traded two 2nd round picks for the rental of Von Miller. That worked out pretty well for them. I don't know if I'd do it for a RB with our O-line though. -
The Bills won yesterday because.... (karma reasons only)
RangerDave replied to Just Jack's topic in The Stadium Wall
When the Bills went down 20-3, my wife turned her Bills cap around and declared: Rally Cap Time! The Bills scored 20 unanswered points after that. You can't overstate that amount of skill and edication. (And if someone were to ask me what I did, I smiled at her as she did this...) -
Crowder in a boot...time to call sanders?
RangerDave replied to Hebert19's topic in The Stadium Wall
He probably still has the Key to the City already! -
NFLPA initiating investigation into Tua’s concussion protocol
RangerDave replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall
True, although those injuries occurred in the Titans game when it wasn't dangerously hot. Also, I believe both players sustained neck injuries, not concussions. Or at least not suspected concussions. I don't know the procedure for when a player who gets hit in the head has to enter the "concussion protocol". Then again, it seems like no one in Miami knows that either. -
NFLPA initiating investigation into Tua’s concussion protocol
RangerDave replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall
I really don't know what to think. HIs stumbling really appeared to be from a concussion, not a back injury. Either way, I did not notice Tua having any difficulties throwing the ball or running the offense after half time. You would think that either of those type of injuries would have affected his game. Pretty amazed that they didn't, at least from my untrained eye. Maybe whatever it was wasn't so serious after all? -
I know you are joking (hope you are joking?), but today's sports are lightyears ahead of yesterday's sports in terms of player safety - and player performance. I remember back in the day, coaches would not let players drink water during practice to "toughen them up." Now we know that staying hydrated improves performance substantially. Players are also cognizant of long term health and performance. That's why we see so many players go to the ground or going out of bounds before they get hit. Getting injured (aside from being painful!) can lead to a shorter career, less career earnings, and missed games. There are also long term consequences leading to poor health later in life. Possibly even a shorter life. While I get upset when players give themselves up early, or don't play after a seemingly minor injury, I get it. I'd probably do the same thing if I was a pro athlete. The game is still fun to watch and we get to see good players play over a longer career. I'd call that a win-win.

I've seen this happen in soccer games. They will take a timeout for the players to cool down and rehydrate. I actually thought that was happening in the game when Bates got hurt because it lasted a longer time than normal and so many players were taking a knee.

The Bills won last night because (karma reasons only)
RangerDave replied to Just Jack's topic in The Stadium Wall
I'm hoping it was the part about eating taffy that won the game for us and not the part about cracking a tooth! 😄 -

I cracked a tooth while eating taffy at the game last night. The Bills won. Does that count? 🦷 -
NFL fines Diggs and Jackson for Unsportsmanlike conduct
RangerDave replied to Steel City Mafia's topic in The Stadium Wall
You always seem to be hurting for money. Why don't you start fining some posters for unsportsmanlike writing? 😇 -
I just got mine a few days ago.
