haha I just thought the same thing. That was a brutal drop. Doesn’t get much easier.

Watching this game again, it is so clear to see that this team was toast well before the Bengals playoff game. The defense looks like absolute crap. Puts into perspective how lame the Hamlin, Pegula, etc excuses are.

The snowball-at-the-face-of-every-Dolphins-player game. ‘Twas a beautiful sight.

It does. By A LOT.

Sounds like you are a good chef. Some people don't seem to know the difference between good food and slop.

Stop being "rude and uninformed".

Because I prefer to not eat garbage food? .

What is everyone's fascination with this Applebee's quality restaurant?

I appreciate your appreciation of my work

I do my best to only debate with those who possess a comparable level of intellect (or at least within a handful of levels) to mine. Therefore I do not entertain Limeade anymore. He simply doesn't have the cognitive capacity. CPI represents the prices of all goods and services purchased for consumption by households. And yes, as you pointed out, CPI underestimating inflation furthers my points. If you see a higher price, dont accept it. Find a better offer. Not hard to find.

Lol. Try again. https://buffalo-news.securesubscribers.com/?source=microg&gad=1#7Day&gclid=Cj0KCQjw756lBhDMARIsAEI0AgmUx8pKvHj788isQvYAL6-LG7bhOcV3w_QNCQNzXZ_HOgYhgZ4LC2oaAtgaEALw_wcB It absolutely does. This isn’t opinion - it’s fact. Technology doesn’t change the increased price of ink, paper, vehicles, salaries, etc.

Oh, okay. Continue on with your "Local Media is desperately trying to stay alive. F em!" thread.

I'm not defending the newspaper. I don't subscribe and I won't. I am simply telling you that they are not increasing prices because they think it's fun to take more of your paycheck. They are increasing prices because they are trying to stay alive. If they don't increase prices, they will be unable to fulfill their accounts payable and payroll and they will go out of business and there be no local newspaper. That may be fine with you, but don't b-word when all you have left is national pundits commenting on the Bills instead of your local media team. What in the world makes you think their cost of production didnt rise? They absolutely did skyrocket. Printer ink has gone through the roof. When looking at newspaper ink, which is primarily soy oil or a distillate of petroleum (oil), you can see the rise in price: Then there is the cost of paying people to write for the paper. Do you think the writers still want to be paid what they made in 1990? Or do you think their salaries rose with inflation too? Then there is the cost of paper itself, which has risen drastically: So we have: 1 - Ink - skyrocketed 2 - Paper - skyrocketed 3 - Writer Salary - went with inflation This doesnt even count the cost of rent (which has also skyrocketed), new machines (they dont last forever), etc.

What do you mean? I really enjoy The Athletic as well.

They should be charging less, while vehicles, gas, paper, ink, salaries, etc have all increased 3x? Now who doesn’t understand basic economics?

You're misreading something, I think. Print + Digital for 7-day delivery is $26. Link.

Pontificating on "basic economics" while not understanding inflation is a bit ironic. The Buffalo News cost $12 per month ($3.05 per week) in 1990. The OP said they are increasing to $28 per month in 2023. If you plug $12 into an inflation calculator and compute the increase from 1990 to 2023... It is $28. They are essential charging the exact same as they did in 1990. Price has only followed inflation.

By the 2nd quarter the radio broadcast would devolve into a “Deli Meat draft” where he is arguing the merits of Turkey over Roast Beef.

It’s not worth it to me either. Just don’t B word when it’s gone completely. You should tell your local wine shop to pass on the credit card cost to the consumer and offer a reduced rate for cash. Lots of businesses are doing it now.

If people aren’t going to pay for local press, don’t complain when all you have left is Skip Bayless types. They aren’t raising the price because they want a new sports car. They’re doing it because they are barely staying afloat.

He's still going to take off when he wants. It's in his blood.

You and I have corrected so many people on their nonsense takes that at this point they are very bitter.

He's kind of annoying. I like it.

Same. It is incredible that Murph sat next to Van for so many years and didn't pick up on many of the things that made Van great. He wast just incredible. Murph is just... terrible.

Baloney.
