  1. Would explain why Bills didn't bring him back
  2. He's perfectly welcome in Hammers Lot tailgates donning his game-worn jersey.
  3. NYS leadership really need to reconsider their policies as they are creating a modern feudal state whose fortunes are dependent on 9 counties that are physically separated from the rest of the state.
  4. This basically answers some of the other questions raised in this and the New Era thread. Amazon doesn't need the incentives, but by throwing out the RFP to over 200 communities they got a bidding war. I don't think that NYS will get the return on its investment because LIC has already been blowing up in the last decade, as you note. Newark was on the shortlist, but NJ didn't have the capacity to throw in $1.2 billion. The gentrification "concerns" are valid, but all Amazon is going to do is speed up what was already happening on the western ends of Queens & Brooklyn.
  5. [Broken Record /On] Bills have 2 starting LBs either in or just cleared from concussion protocol
  6. For the other side of the coin - who replaced him on the roster? It has to be Humber or another LB, right?
  7. Apparently, he didn't learn from his prior experience.
  8. Especially in light of their opposition to Citizens United
  9. Not just all outlets, but specific people from those outlets.
  10. Because, Nazis. Or something like that
  11. Just watched a few 1st Q series on All-22. He's a beast in run blocking, but still needs work on pass protect. He got beat cleanly on a few snaps and luckily for him Barkley got the ball out quickly. Will be a different story with Allen who tends to hold on a bit longer.
  12. Another day, another administration shake up rumor. Losing Kelly would be a big blow. Trump's successes have been aligned with Kelly closing his ranks.
  13. 18% of the snaps, mostly in the jumbo packages
  14. If that's their negotiating ploy, they're starting out with a 2 of spades and a 5 of hearts showing. Building up their military capabilities to match US forces will take time, money and personnel, which they cannot spare in the near future.
  15. Both sides claim to support free and fair trade, and to boil down the arguments based on just those two words is too simplistic to describe a complicated trade environment. Free trade doesn't mean that US opens up its markets but accepts trade barriers overseas. That's not free trade. US companies shouldn't have to give up critical IP or be forced to take on majority-owned foreign partners in order to enter a market. Nobody should have any illusions that EU is a trading foe vs a trading ally. The entire point of EU's creation was to fight American economic might. Trump is playing a very high stakes game in unsettling global trade, but he doesn't appear to be stupid enough to blow everything up.
  16. It's nearly impossible. He was beaten out for roster spots in Philly, Arizona, Chicago and SF, who were all looking for QBs when he was in camp. He's shown that he can be a competent back up. No one should entertain thoughts of him being a long term starter.
  17. Don't know if you are being sarcastic, but please point to where he didn't get a fair shake?
  18. What I find hilarious is the faith that Barkley never got a chance despite playing through multiple training camps on QB starved teams.
  19. Barkley had the ideal opportunity to show that he's an NFL caliber QB in Chicago. He couldn't beat out Brian Hoyer. I'm perfectly happy keeping him on the roster as the long term back up, but NOBODY should be entertaining thoughts of him being the long term starter.
  20. With teams struggling to fill a starting role it's even harder to find a competent backup. Barkley probably would have been Bengals back up if he didn't get hurt in the preseason finale. Another Bengals turn of events that helped Buffalo
  21. They did it the old fashioned way through community organizers.
  22. They tried like hell in 1968
  23. I wonder if people in Rwanda agree with Merkel?
  24. If you look at the last 4 losses, it was more of the case of Bills offense stabbing itself in the foot than anything else. The Bills losses also came at the hands of very good opposing QBs. A 4 game run is not out of the question if the Bills offense is finding its footing.
