  1. Dissapointed that the WGR morning show didnt even mention the "past" between McD and Dunne in their interview with Dunne this AM. That article last year was highly defamatory to McD and made NATIONAL news. A year later Dunne and McD reach a detante' and sit down and nary a word about it when Dunne goes on WGR to promote and discuss the article? Christ...just a simple acknowledgement of the past by Jeremy and Joe would have been enough. But it was totally ignored.

     

    I get it...Buffalo is a small town and all these press/media guys are long time colleagues and friends. But to just ignore the giant gorilla in the room by DiBiasi and White borders on "not doing your job" territory. But this is a larger issue with Buffalo Sports Media. Their work is very often more "fans" and "friends" than "professional press/media."

  2. Maybe Im nuts (OK, I AM nuts) but Id love Doug Pederson as the Bills OC if Brady walks to take a HC job.

     

    Long time league OC/HC guy with a great resume who knows how to run an offense and an older (but not too old) guy who probably is not looking to jump into another HC gig...would probably be happy "settling down" with the Bills and coaching the offense for a long time.

  3. The NBA went to pot when they put in the "restricted area" underneath the basket. It took the physicality that everyone LOVED out of the game and really restricted defense, making the offensive game too easy and therefore, boring. Side note: The NFL is well on its way to doing the same thing, but thats a thread for another day. 

     

    So, lose that stupid semi-circle under the hoop and let the forwards and centers go back to defending the basket, itself properly.   EVERYONE loved this aspect of the game and its just GONE now. Its akin to the running game being completely removed from the NFL.

     

    Ewing discusses it here. "Get his butt in the block and let him go to work."

    Can you explain what your problem is with this setting, specifically?

     

     

    I show you a picture of favelas...literal slums and shantytowns....and your response is "Whats wrong with them?" 

     

    Like I said...youre not being honest.

    @AlBUNDY4TDS is correct. Prices in the city reflect the simple principal of supply and demand. 

    People choose the urban setting because it’s close to amenities they enjoy, from grocery stores to bars. They don’t need a 20 minute drive to go buy toilet paper. 

     

    More dishonesty. A "20 minute drive for toilet paper" or to a grocery store or bar is an aspect of RURAL living, not typical suburban living in townships that outline and circle most city centers. And while not all suburbs are walkable, a large percentage of them are. For example, I live in the biggest "suburb" in America (Nassau County/Town of Hempstead) and a few miles from the original suburb...Levittown, NY. While driving to where I need to go is certainly more convenient, a major grocery store, a lot of general retail, three schools and about five bars/restaurants are within a 5-10 minute walk.

    Look, everyone gets their allotted 47 sf of living space on floors 1-58, with natural fluorescent light to improve mood and enhance feelings of joy.  Each familial unit is allowed 1.3567 offspring per birthing unit, access to the recreation yard every 4.87 days, and a substantial offering of climate friendly compliant dishes to choose from. 
     


     

     

     

    What those dopes will NEVER understand is that people like me and you aint pushing back on that sort of thing or those who choose freely to live like that.  Its THEIR desire to have the rest of US..by force...live like that is what we push back on.  If you notice, roundy isnt just touting "urban living"...hes looking to also cast disdain on suburban living and those who choose to live in a suburban setting and stating by implication that it must be done away with.  Notice how he prattles about the "negative exernalities" of suburban living yet mentions none of the negative aspects of urban living. That right there is how you know youre not dealing with an honest broker.

    Do you choose a rich and lively urban environment or the dead cookie cutter hell of suburban sprawl?

     

    Heres the "rich and lively" and "environmentally friendly" living arrangement that progressive YIMBY's dream of. They would legislate all of us into the favelas if they had the chance to do so.

     

    Looks awesome.

  7. My friend works the control tower at LaGuardia, where some of these "drones" were sighted. His response to my inquiry was that he's been staring out his work window at lines of these things in formation for the last 20 years. 

     

    It is pretty amazing how all these "drones" have a red light on one side, a green on the other, three white lights (two on the sides and one on the back) and a red blinky.  I wonder why that is.....

    Lol. Not surprised.

    I listened to that quip about madden, and they absolutely didn't say "people who play madden are smarter than McD"

     

    Nice way to skew/twist things.

     

    The Madden thing was a running theme with several calls and discussions and the point most certainly was that "people who play Madden" have a firm grip on clock management in the pro game.

    So the expectation is 17-0 with no mistakes or bad games? 
     

    Got it. Stick to Madden. 

     

    Didnt you listen to WGR and read some of the posts last week? "People who play Madden" are smarter than McD and can do a better job with in-game decisions.

  10. I cant argue too much becuase all this is doing is seeing Goodell fulfill his edict from the owners he works for, which is to make more money for them. However, between this, and the international games and the lousy officiating, and the overproduction of everything the league does, and all these different streaming services fans need to chase to watch the games....the league is really becoming watered down and the overall product is starting to suffer.
