  1. Since you mentioned college basketball, yeah, I've become the same way. Between the one and done's to the point you don't know anyone who's on the team, with so much changing of the roster there's little teamwork as the players aren't together long enough to figure things out, plus they are pretty much all terrible shooters these days. Living in Western NY for a long time I followed Syracuse pretty close every year. Moved down to NC almost 20 years go, still followed them until there last few years. But it's tough to follow a team that has been losing as much as they have and because of the losing, isn't on nearly as much TV as they used to be and much less media coverage. So in general don't follow the sport that much, but will watch March Madness, but even that not as intently as I use to as don't know who anyone is anymore. In all honestly I follow the NBA now more than college.
  2. And yet, they were the #2 offense I believe??
  3. Ok yeah wondered about the fine print, was figuring either was for new ST subs (which is the case) or people who didn't already have a subscription to YTTV which I also already have. Thanks for the info!
  4. Hmmmm.... Tempting to try it. Guess they are figure for many will forget to cancel the premium subscription afterwards which is what happens with many of these deals
  5. so you Tube Premium is $14/month. So I could Sept 1st get this for 4 months for $52, then I can get ST for $192?? There's got to be a catch like need a 3 year subscription to Premium?? Or is there a much pricer premium package I'd need to get the $192 offer?
  6. OK, didn't know that about you. So I'm an ME and have used lifts in many places to, but didn't see much of an area where you had a flat and large enough surface to sit the lift and looked like it would have to swing in fairly far from there. Recall one project working in an area with around a 32 foot high ceiling to next level but needed access to a surface about 4 or 5 feet below that level, so they built scaffolding off the floor above and hung it down. It was just entirely clamped onto the floor above to hold in place. Maybe there's a way they can easily just keep leap frogging that structure along as they get to the next section??
  7. My understanding that is there so they can safely and easily get access to the underside of the roof panels to finish the work like installing speakers lighting, utilities, etc. Admittedly it does seem like a very large effort to build this for something only temporary, that they couldn't figure out a better way like have everything pre attached to the roof panels. But am sure they've thought through this and this was the only way and probably a similar thing has been done in ten other prior built stadiums. Will say too while this looks very elaborate, having been working in industrial settings involving some crazy scaffolding, it does install much easier, quicker, and simpler than it looks.
  8. Don't know how many saw the article, but apparently on Friday night August 1st at Canton as part of HOF weekend, Marv will be there for a birthday celebration as the oldest live HOF member. Apparently he has to leave right afterwards to be back home for a contractual autograph session on Saturday that he wasn't able to get out. of. Think I read Chris Berman is introducing him.
  9. I was half joking about 8-1/2 fingers but I can recall as kids, kids throwing M-80's at other kids and aiming Roman Candles at people 30 feet or away.. Good chance this was a semi self inflicted thing
  10. Unless he was the one shooting them off. The post says Najee Harris was present at a 4th of July event where a fireworks mishap resulted in injuries. It may have left out the part where it says Harris was holding the fireworks in his hand when it blew up. Next week there' will be another post saying Harris doesn't expect to have any difficulties holding onto the ball with 8-1/2 fingers.
  11. I think there a higher odds of him making it over Coddington as they have more versatility in secondary with guys like Lewis, Hancock, and another I'm forgetting name of able to play multiple positions. At WR nobody has Shenault's speed and assuming they only keep 5 "normal" WR, he provides an extra body in game due to injury and also plays ST as the return man. But also possible they go with someone totally different for returns, then both could be out.
  12. If I had moved 30 or 40 years ago from Western NY to NC, I probably would have more given up on Bills as much harder back then to follow an out of market team. Today doesn't make a huge difference whether you live in Orchard Park or SE Asia, can pretty much follow just as well from anywhere. Just takes a little more money with subscriptions to things not needed as much if local.
  13. So I now live down in North Carolina for close to about 17 years now. After the 2015 season, the Bills were pretty much losing every year so decided in 2016 I'll maybe start following the local team the Panthers. They're on TV every week, in the local papers to some level, not like in western NY and they just finished 15-1 and lost in the SB. I wasn't going to ignore the Bills, but wouldn't bother trying to find a way to watch a Bills game when had the Panthers on local TV and newspapers. They went from SB lose to 6-10, finished in last place and started the season 1-5. After that start I kind of gave up on them and went back to the Bills who actually finished wit ha better record in Rex's last year here. Haven't wavered since
  14. He had good college stats, many sacks. Granted it wasn't against Alabama and Ohio St, but neither did Andre Reed play them regularly.
