  1. 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!
  2. 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”
  3. I feel so bad for him. Just sitting there and some dumb ass rams into him. Poor guy.
  4. "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)
  5. 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
  6. 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
  7. 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!!!!
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. 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
  13. 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.
  14. 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)
  15. 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
  16. 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”
  17. I guess when you have $5B burning a hole in your pocket…..
  18. Park on Webster before 11am, leave via California. Y’all seem strong enough to walk the half mile to escape jams. Private lot means you are on road asap. I would avoid the large lots—, if the goal is escape. California is light. https://maps.app.goo.gl/diKKB1CXFyt23HtV6?g_st=ic
  19. I think those small adjustments are the difference between winning and losing in the playoffs YES YES YES I have yet to hear ONE example of McD under anything close to same adaptations. Hoodie with 2021-2023 Bills team would scare the crap out of everyone.
  20. I just can’t shake “Top 15” question. top 15 fans? Yes top 15 owner? Yes. top 15 GM? Yes. top 15 QB? Yes. top 15 HC??
  21. Yeah, he looks like he’d be good with a chainsaw. Only one PROVEN body so far (MS Surface).
  22. I’m still waiting for some examples of McD HC where he’s made a tactical or game strategy decision that surprised or turned heads. I’m very seriously asking. (Beane made several very specific trades and moves to get Josh and Diggs—very specific and his)
  23. “would another team hire Bills HC away?” No. “would the bills hire 4 other HC if any choice?” Yes. We don’t have a top 15 HC. We’d try many swings for top 15 QB. HC should be treated similarly
  24. essentially Beane is CEO. McD is COO. can someone point out a few coach McD actions that legit impressed you? Any play with a Name because it was so iconic? I’m seriously asking
  25. Few are critical of Beane O this off-season, fewer are critical of him overall. Where the criticism is valid is does this HC have enough to outsmart a team with 1:1 equal skills as Bills? :13 makes me dubious and he’s “on the clock”
