  1. 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!
  2. I'm pretty sure my wife lobbied Congress to get this....
  3. 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.
  4. Unfortunately, common courtesy is not as common as it used to be. 🙄
  5. Maybe someone should tell Snyder about the Mint app?
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. I can't remember. When was the last time a Bills RB had a 100 yard game?
  9. 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.
  10. Winning this game...the way they did...everyone gets a game ball! (Maybe even McKenzie 🙄)
  11. 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."
  12. I remember telling my friends, "Wait 'til the year after next!" (Because I knew we would suck the next year, too.....)
  13. 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.
  14. 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...)
  15. He probably still has the Key to the City already!
  16. 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.
  17. 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?
  18. 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.
  19. 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.
  20. I'm hoping it was the part about eating taffy that won the game for us and not the part about cracking a tooth! 😄
  21. I cracked a tooth while eating taffy at the game last night. The Bills won. Does that count? 🦷
  22. You always seem to be hurting for money. Why don't you start fining some posters for unsportsmanlike writing? 😇
  23. I'll volunteer to be sent to Fiji to jump under a coconutif it helps our odds out any!
