  1. I have no doubt Touhys described it as adoption. Not in family ensures full ride finaid $$ Alabama. Adult conservatorship should be insanely hard to acquire. Adult has a choice to blow money. “pursuit of happiness” and all that founding fathers jazz. It’s pretty lame they didn’t adopt him
  2. On a very good roster 4,5,6 rounders might not make the team. Use the picks to get a better round 1. Beane targeted a pass catcher in round one. I still believe he promised during 14/17 restructures. Beane had to jump to Kincaid as the other catchers were being scooped up.
  3. Stupid stats. Dumb take. Merely 13 arrests over 23 yrs separates top and bottom on rosters 90 people. First or last is statistically irrelevant. Only thing this thread proves? we need the season to start !!!
  4. “No national pregame” a total garbage take. Who cares. We have only three 1pm home games. Team has plenty of exposure.
  5. He could do well for himself by staying home and jamming up the middle. It’s not in DE DNA but he could help both his career and team.
  6. I’m glad to see turnover at Bills business. It’s what organizations do. It is very unusual to see people say “despise” and “absence” working out agreements. Usually, “Hard negotiator”, “firm”, “difficult but trusted” he must have been a real d#ck to a sitting governor. Imagine what he is like to lesser peeps Terry has built many business now. He surely knew about construction overrun potential. It feels like a major personality conflict. If people lose trust between (“despise his tactics”)— it’s pretty hard to put that genie back in the bottle (see cheating husband divorce)
  7. Possibly secondary/CB marginally worse vs 22, 21. The notion of a lock down corner, not Bills. our starters have a few more years on the treads. maybe slow down-slide (e.g., Tre). A smart, flexible group but age is a factor in speeds and nicks/bruises
  8. And if he was somehow not a bills secondary fit, Bills would find an NFL HQ, team, non profit or some form of duties, prior to any announcement. It would be a very managed case.
  9. Perfect scenario for Ass Rogers. Hackett to blame when it’s bad and Rogers just ignores him if it’s good. Win win for Rogers give Payton credit for actually saying something substantive. Take that, HOODIE!
  10. NFL teams are run like small business. They're not small biz anymore but still behave like them. I expect some blend of family to run "the family business". Mom & Dad totally love it. they've indoctrinated the kids, just like I did 😮 I'm sure the kids all have areas of skill, interest and there are plenty of roles. I'm sure they're all thrilled to see Mom getting closer to her passion!
  11. I am sure being near the team, in the sunshine, hometown, with her kids was a great feeling. uplifting for her and family. “Mom, daughter, wife, loves the Bills and she got to be here and share with us”
  12. I feel so bad for him. Just sitting there and some dumb ass rams into him. Poor guy.
  13. "off field injury"--Sure hope it was not at the Folding Table OTA 🤣 These guys do have to get their $ fast!! (I never will understand Lamar taking that risk)
  14. It’s hard to see almost any one WR OL DL ahead of Burrows/Allen. i get that this isn’t a team MVP list. But if you were picking your team from pure scratch, Burrow/Allen over any WR OL DL
  15. Jets were a mediocre QB away. Rogers scares me. Another pole could ask “which has the scariest upside to change a team” (JETS). Rogers is a spooky kook for bills fans. jones has most downside risk
  16. They’re used to college life and it just makes sense to have dozens of bros share puke toilets. Pittsford nightlife is the bomb And let’s be honest…This remote college dorm thing is on its last legs…this is a $4B biz with mostly millionaires now. They’re down to “hey it’s team bonding for a couple weeks” now. I think this team had bonding chances in 2023!!!!
  17. It’s also why NYS/ERIE or any public shouldn’t pay for these stadiums. I agree with us doing for bills. But they’ve got a monopoly and can afford to pay for the monopoly infrastructure. Not unlike utilities.
  18. I’d be annoyed by now. Imagine having the world and PR…being told again and again “hahahaa, nanana. We won’t vote you on (an island, team, club, job, fraternity)” I’m sure his life is completely full and fulfilling without this crap anymore.
  19. he is NUTS to take “passes” from Jones. Bills could manipulate a contract and people that gets what both need. Even if it means weird Y2.
  20. I hate that NFL mgr run the business like a small coffee shop Vs $Billions business. They keep, promote, or shift familiar staff around, like friends at a coffee joint. Russ Brandon is poster child for this.
  21. NYT dropping 35 sports reporters today Technology marches on… https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/the-new-york-times-disbands-its-sports-department
  22. And btw, if the market supports the very good Bills reporting by Buff News then it will go on, in a form. Getting widespread acceptance of $28/mo is not going to happen. This isn’t a union or inflation thing. It’s that their customer base is dying and $28/mo is too much Vs. Netflix.
  23. Buff News business model: scam over 60 to still buy paper. over 50 to paywall. Fewer and fewer Baby Boomers to scam, means higher and higher prices for those left. I like Bills reporting but unless it’s $4. Forget it. Streaming sets the market and it isn’t $28/mo !! they’ll lay off buff news staff when they can’t get the revenue this year. (iPhone killed: camera, phone, level, maps, calculator, compass, radio, camcorder, encyclopedia, dictionary…newspaper Buff News Bills)
  24. I dearly hope there is protection from elements. 1 home game Sept. That quintessential crisp blue sky mid autumn football day we all have nostalgia for—exceedingly rare
  25. Happens at companies everyday. I’ve had to argue with a teacher that they can fire me for wearing a green shirt. Teacher just couldn’t comprehend “employment at will”
