Sabres writer Joe Yerdon cut. I wonder if John Vogl will tear into them for not paying people like he did with the Pegulas?

Here, here. When I grew up on the East side in the 60s, we all made racist jokes. Our Polish neighborhood bordered a predominantly Black neighborhood and there were dust-ups. I recall taking the NFT bus to Hutch Tech (remember bus passes?) and scuffles would break out between white and black kids. As we grew up, some changed, some dug in deeper to their racial animus. That's just how people are. I'm hoping Jake from State Fromm is one of the 98% who just talk s**t but would never act on what he says. His racism may be like mine was, shared with your buddies for laughs. Not right but not sinister. I hope it's not deeper.

It's also fragile if people take it for granted.

He's got every right in the world to express his feelings. But that means everyone else has the right to express THEIR feelings on HIS feelings.

I agree recent events have taken the pressure off for a new Bills stadium for a while. Not that New Era will last forever, mind you. It will be 50 years old in 2023 when the current lease expires. My seats are in the upper deck and I can feel the thing shaking when fans are jumping. But with stadium cost issues in Los Angeles and the financial impact of the pandemic, it would be a bad look for the NFL to harp on the Pegulas and the state for a new stadium. 2021 would have been the year any new stadium would have to be announced, figuring a two year construction period. Instead I see a lease extension in the cards. Maybe new stadium talk starts again in 5 years or so.

I updated the Soldiers field numbers. Take a look at my post. Arrowhead reno cost $425 million in 2007. That's $525 million today.

Lol, do you know what they did in Chicago? They didn't slap a coat of paint on it. They built a completely new stadium, but kept the old facade. Cost about $630 million in 2002. That would be $900 million in today's dollars.

What is this retirement you speak of?

If they allow fans in, maybe. 16K capacity, limit it to 3K?

The revenge of the Bills Toronto Series?

Yes. Technically, Allen started, just like Matt Cassel started the 2015 season.

I must have already had a good buzz that game.

Week 17 vs Jets. It's worth noting that the Bills played their bench against the Jets starters, who struggled for a win.

Ain't it? I mean you could, in theory, program 11 of those things to recreate the defense of the team you're facing each week. Instant scout team.

I'm waiting for the Bills to adopt the Dartmouth football robots training method.

I thought this was a thread about him not signing yet.

He also grew up in Dallas and was a big Stars fan when they won the cup against the Sabres. He thinks "No Goal" was a good goal. Boo that man!

If Dak is so much better, why would Jerruh trade him?

It's more like the snake swallowing its tail. Stations test music. Best testing songs get played more. Lower testing get dropped. So you test again next year. Better testing songs play more, lower ones dropped. After a few years you're playing the same 500 or fewer songs over and over. Personally I can't listen to classic rock stations any more. I don't want to hear Freebird, Layla, or Stairway for the ten millionth time. If I may make a suggestion. WXGR is a low power FM here in NH that plays a very diverse mix of music to groove to. Very eclectic. A great background while hanging by the pool. Streaming on TuneIn and at www.wxgrfm.org

Does PFF use a random name generator for these lists?

"Smart Patrol, nowhere to go. Suburban robots that monitor reality. Common stock, we work around the clock. We shove the poles in the holes."

Maybe to some degree. They do do music testing. But most of that list comes from a consultant and it's 98% the same top 500 in every other city.

You realize they just make these Top 500 lists up, right?

Josh Allen never did this, Dan. Dan's been busy P-O'ing lots of folks.

That take, saying Josh is who he is, is just the last attempt to validate his draft grade. People won't let go of it.
