    and 8th in the AFC.

     

    Im not sure what choice Miami really had here.  Their window is now, and the alternatives are probably a downgrade from Tua.  4 Years is actually a manageable term.  IMO if Tyreek Hill ever gets injured, that offense is going to short-circuit in an epic way.

     

    May Day, yeah.  They had to do it.  They simply had no real other choice.

     

    We'll see.

    Using the Bulls as well.  Played a bit in dynasty mode.   Do you recall coach mode in Madden back in the day?  Would like that ability on dynasty.   Between recruiting and having to play the actual game it's too time consuming.

     

     

    North, I am telling you don't get me started.  The modes have changed in Madden so much (and they seem to love what the have now) that I would love to go back to a day where "Franchise" or "Dynasty" were just a simple "here you go, start playing and enjoy."

     

    Now you have to make it a career to set up before you get going.  

     

    If I were King for a day, brother, the things I would change...starting first and foremost with Sim football!

    Not a big gamer but I bought it yesterday, mostly for nostalgia purposes.   A lot like Madden where the gap between the "Pro" and "All Pro" gameplay settings is way too wide.   

     

     

     

     

    I was about to ask people for their thoughts so far.  Thank you, North.

     

    I have a soft spot for this one going back to the last time I played as in one of the last versions I still believe you could play as the Canisius Golden Griffins.  

     

    ...I would honestly pay to be able to play as the Griffs again, and not as a mock up, but with the real uniform.

     

    For now I get to play as the Bulls, so horns up.

    Yeah...based on what I read on Twitter, the amount of -- shall we say -- OLDER gamers who were excitedly waiting for CFB25 to come out and found out within a few days of release that their console doesn't support it was... fairly enormous. 

    Lots of 39-year-olds emergency buying XBox X/S and PS5s all over the country this week, much to the chagrin of their spouse.

     

     

    Logic, I don't even want to tell you what was running through my head the last 24 hours to "adjust" the main floor living room's viewing experience...and my wife most certainly doesn't want to hear it, either!

     

    😂

    Well, today's the big day.

    Folks have been waiting a decade for another college football video game to come out, and today it finally does.

    Anyone grabbing this thing and shirking all other life obligations?

    Gonna turn Old Dominion into a dynasty? Bring Appalachian State to five consecutive championships? Run the Wishbone 20 times in a row as a single tear of joy rolls down your cheek?

    Who's doin this thang?

     

     

     

    Logic, I am really am annoyed that they don't have a One X version.  With Madden they have Series X/S and One X and I can just move between the basement and the main floor (main floor has the One X).  

     

    Basement is usually just for multiplayer with the gaming geezers, so the X is there and I really don't want to move it up and down.

     

    That said, yes, I am getting it and still likely getting the bundle.

    If you enjoy watching the CFL, most games will be available at https://www.cfl.ca/plus/

     

    If the game is not shown on CBS-Sports network, it will be streamed at this site. There is no pausing or rewind available.

     

    If you do not enjoy watching the CFL, please take your sour comments somewhere else. Thanks.

     

    CFL Plus - streaming CFL games

     

     

    Dude, thank you.  

     

    I have randomly been watching CFL games since I was a kid going back more decades than I like to admit.

  6. Sticks to everybody ("sticks are unbelievable"), but the one who gets to eat his stick first is easily the creator, writer and star of Shoresy, Jared Keeso.

     

    He took a one note, unfaced, gutter-snipe side character from his successful show, Letterkenny, and turned it into a sports show for everyone (other than language 😉) with as much heart as I've seen in any show out there.

     

    Side note, this show was also my motivation for my Stadium Wall thread of "This team will never lose again" after which they won six straight before the KC playoff loss.  

     

    Art can motivate you sometimes, even in fandom.

     

    It is 3 seasons, 18 episodes, and about 9 hours total on Crave (Canada) and Hulu.  

     

    So before you complain about another streaming expense "give your ****s a tug" and just subscribe for one month to watch.  As a fan of hockey.  As a fan of sports.  As a fan of low budget, but well thought out television in this day and age of "What 180 million dollar piece of crap did I just watch?!" you will thank yourself for it. 

     

    Yasso...go watch the Bulldogs...you gotta a dip?

    I'm guessing this is why she doesn't seem to be involved much with the Bills, despite some previous stories.  She's got something else going on.  Won the Berlin Open today.  Top Ten in the world for 100 weeks.  Currently ranked #5.  Representing the USA in the upcoming Olympics.

     

     

    That pushed her up, Hondo.  I checked a couple of weeks ago because I was curious if she went/or how she played at the French Open.  She was at #8 then.

     

    EDIT: @hondo in seattle

     

    Jeepers, Hondo, she was at 5 for the Berlin Open, not after.  My bad.

     

    Could she be a top four seed for Wimbledon?  We'll see.  Good for her.  Good for American tennis.

  8. Miami returning pretty much the same team.

     

    They have made three straight playoffs.

     

    Additionally and I know I live in the minority here, other than against the Bills Tua is a pretty good QB.  Honestly.

     

    ”but he is only good because he has great weapons.”  Well…he still has them.

     

    We have the opposite problem with the Jets than we do with the dolphins… Everybody beats them, except us as far as sweeping them. The Jets are no fun to play but we always make our own problems against them.

     

    The Jets are the only team to beat us in back to back regular seasons this decade…and that is ridiculous.

    The funny thing is I live in Tampa and whenever I ear Bills gear (usually on the weekend as I’m in scrubs all week), 0

    people inevitably chime out “Go Bills”.  My girlfriend live in my Bills t-shirts over the weekend.  She told me although she’s never been to an NFL game or even saw one on tv, she’d adopt them.  The hook is I have to teach her the NFL game.  She’s coming in September with myself and my boys as well as nephews and cousins to the game.

     

    Were lucky as she is tight with McDermott’s admin as my sister has been with the Sabres for 25 years.  She always finds a way to get us tix when it’s impossible.

     

     

    Photos or we don't believe you, MGK.

     

    👀

     

     

    Just kidding, brother.   That's great, too, that you are coming back up for a game.

    Gregg, you’re quick on the responses.  You know I always enjoy your takes even of I don’t agree always.  You at least are  thoughtful to me.  I hate when guys get personal with each other.  When I make points, I just would like people to be civil to use a Frank Reagan phrase from Blue Bloods.

     

     

    **** You, GUNS.

    All teams are based and train in Arlington TX, then fly to whichever city they are scheduled to play in. So they only need a place to play in Buffalo. Highmark is defiantly too large but is where we go to watch football. Then there's UB Stadium and All High in North Buffalo.

     

    Meanwhile the UFL announce 8 players signed to NFL teams. 

     

    https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/ufl-announces-eight-players-have-signed-with-nfl-teams

     

     

    It should so be UB.

     

    The 12,000+ they would likely get would seem cozy in there, and it can handle up to 18K, I believe.  I really think it would draw.

    Every league has good and bad games. Too bad the UFL championship was a clunker. Attendance lagged but TV ratings were decent enough. I eager to hear if they are coming back for another year. 

     

    I read that Memphis is going to be dropped. How do you think Buffalo would do? One one hand who would care? On the other, 5 or 6 more chances to tailgate. If they keep tickets reasonable, why wouldn't Buffalo draw 12-15K? The only thing is the team has to be competitive.


     

    Every time they do these leagues, Promo, I am curious about a Buffalo franchise.

     

    I’m not sure how it would do, but I’d love to see it at least once. I’d go.

  13. I honestly hate this future based value.

     

    If you are among the best, be paid that way.  If you are less, even though it is a contract year, sorry, but you get less.

     

    Trevor Lawrence should be sitting somewhere in 8-12 money...fine then compromise at 9 or 10 ($45 or so range).

     

    Because in this League, right now, it should be what you are worth...in this league...right now.  

     

    I also don't  even think he is worth that, but you have to give him something.

    ‘Nobody as a tough as an elite wrestler.  I was very good, but not that good.  I moved to powerlifting in college.  I had enough of rolling around a mat with another sweaty body.

     

     

    Please, Guns, we know with you it all depends upon the "opponent" as well as...the pinability.

    Maybe the best skit, along with Beavis and Butthead, this season.

     

    Haven't been a fan in years, but tuned in at the right times lately.

    Of course anyone is free to feel anyway they want. The team that we beat ‘under their sun’ as you put it has also beaten us under ‘our sun’ to send us home for the season. Our victories over them were meaningless speed bumps on their way to championships. Fretting over a Cincy team that we have only faced ONCE in the playoffs while discounting a KC team that we’ve faced THREE times in the playoffs without winning once seems misplaced. But, like you said, we’re free to be concerned with whomever we want. I’ll be concerned about Cincy if and when we ever meet them in the playoffs again.

     

     

    90s, thank you for the above.

     

    However with respect to my comment from early...I meant the feeling of what I said, but not the way I said it.

     

    I came across as jerky or slightly confrontational when there was no reason to be.  I am sorry, my friend.  I was in a mood, but no way should that spill over to members of this board.

     

    That's completely on me and unlike me and I own up to it.

     

    Thank you for all your comments, btw.

     

    Have a good one and Go Bills!
