  1. I am right there with you. Reasons: I don’t care who wins. NFL officiating is terrible, and it may affect the outcome. I can go online anytime after the game to see the commercials. My normal bedtime is 9:30pm (get up at 5:20am). Staying up for all those late Bills games this past season was very challenging. LOL I am ssssooooo sick of seeing KC, and especially sick of the attention that is given to one certain KC player & his girlfriend. After a certain point in the season (after the Bills are knocked out), the NFL is nauseating.
  2. Good watch, but isn’t the current narrative that good offenses can pretty much move the ball down the field at will? This video says that the defenses have the upper hand.
  3. Most banks don't even have a lot of money on hand. I found this out when I went to buy a motorcycle with cash. I went to my local Bank of America branch on a Friday and wanted to take out $16,000. Naturally, I assumed that they had loads of cash back in the vault, but apparently they don’t. They said we can't give you the $16k because it's payday, and we don't want to give away that much cash on a payday. I ended up having to go to three different branches to scrape together the $16k. LOL They said in the future, if you want a lot of cash, place an order for it beforehand.
  4. I’m pretty sure that they don’t even play a real game anymore. Just from reading this thread, I guess they play some flag football and have a skills competition? As far as JA not going, I do agree that personally, I too would rather be playing at Pebble Beach than going to this sideshow, but….it is a snub to the NFL, AND also to fans who certainly would like to see him there. My feeling is that it just doesn’t look good. The pro bowl date is known months before it happens, and good players know they may be tapped to go, so they should keep that date open and be ready to go.
  5. Wait a minute now, playing Devils advocate, and echoing the narrative of many people in media, the rabid fans of Taylor Swift more than makeup for the fans they’re losing by elevating a small market team (KC) to the SB. Do you realize how many “followers” TS has across her many social media platforms? It’s in the tens of millions! Plus I’m sure their parents (who fund their TS devotion) are jumping on the NFL bandwagon too! I’m seeing the latter narrative all over the place! LOL Note: 80% of this post is sarcasm.
  6. Not sure I really could get into any of them without being accused of posting "politics", and possibly getting banned. LOL
  7. If I had a dollar for every "conspiracy theory" from the last 50 years that turned out to be true, I'd have a lot of dollars.
  8. As I said in another thread in this forum on this topic, the notion that young teen/20 something girls are all of a sudden watching ALL three hours of an NFL game just so they can see a few seconds of TS in a suite is absurd. And I don’t think they’re buying up tickets at Chiefs games either. Yes, many of these rabid TS fans probably did run out and but Chiefs gear, because they are young and easily manipulated, but I don’t think those sales amount to anywhere near $330 million. Really not sure why the networks who show NFL games keep showing her and hyping their relationship. Plenty of NFL players have dated celebrity women, but they never got the coverage that TS is getting.
  9. I agree with you here, but the most amazing thing about that play is that they picked up the flag and said no PI on Detroit, when it did indeed look like blatant PI on Detroit.
  10. I’d be very curious to know how they came up with that $331 million figure. What exactly is “brand value?” I’m sure that tons of her rabid fans ran out and bought #87 Chiefs jerseys, and maybe other Chiefs apparel & merchandise, but I can’t imagine that adding up to $331 million. And I seriously doubt that they’re attending games and/or watching the games on TV for 3 hours so that they can catch a few shots of her. And does anybody really think that the Moms of all these teenage girls have now also become NFL fans just because their daughters are Swifites? I don’t. It seems really forced by the major networks, and I’m wondering why. PLENTY of NFL players have/have had hot/famous significant others, but the flaunting of them was/is nowhere near what this is. And of course, most NFL fans are just sick and tired of it, and just want to see the action on the field.
  11. Did you get that I was poking fun at Romo, as he says “I want you to watch….”, about 10 times per game? 😂
  12. Just mind boggling that these companies have so much money to unnecessarily blow. Absolutely no one tunes in to an NFL game solely because of who is calling the game. People tune in because: it's their team, they're friends & family of a player/coach, it's a good matchup between good teams, or it's the playoffs/SB. I just don't understand. Anybody have an explanation? Will people who would otherwise not watch a crappy game between two crappy teams tune in just because Brady is calling it?
  13. I'm 60+ and had never heard of this song til right now. Just went to YT to check it out, and it's pretty much garbage, IMO. They play THAT song at every Bills game?! Yeah, I'd question it too.
  14. So sorry to hear this news. And thank you for your heartfelt advice to the rest of us. May God watch over you and your family through this trying time. None of us know what will happen today, tomorrow, or the next day, re our personal lives. Like you said, and like I will reiterate here: we all need to cherish our loved ones every day, always hold them close, and pay closer attention to the things that really matter.
  15. Sounds like you're saying that JA has no room for improvement. I totally disagree with the latter. He definitely could use help with how to read what defenses are doing, and also with his decision-making (regarding where to throw the ball). Plenty of All-22 film from plenty of games this past season make the latter fairly obvious.
  16. Are you Herm Edwards using a burner account? 🤔😂
  17. You mean a professional coach, and not a high schooler playing Madden!
  18. Did you happen to see what Kelce did today, vs a supposedly very stout Balt defense? The guy may be one of the most annoying people on the planet, but he also is one of the best TEs to ever play the game.
  19. This post is accurate, but you’re receiving pushback because many Bills fans think that JA, right now, is the best QB to ever walk the earth. Someday, he may become the latter, as he has the physical tools, but he’s not there yet.
  20. Neither does having home field advantage! Or committing absolutely dumb personal fouls!
  21. LOL Many MORE millions of actual NFL fans are sick of her, and have absolutely no desire to see her antics during a game.
