If they aren’t taking out his spleen, it’s all pointless anyway.

Did they mention Josh’s elbow in that thread we had about “The only thing that can stop the Bills is the Bills”? Cos I’m pretty sure the Jets read it and said “Hold my beer”.

I don’t know about that. The Bills were 7-6 at one point last season, yet many people had them winning the Super Bowl - if only for 13 seconds. I think people just get too invested in the hype that the media was throwing out there, while diminishing the injury losses and how difficult it is to be the target of other teams every single week.

I’m having a difficult time emotionally reading the board today. Can someone summarize the threads for me? Just want to know what everyone is thinking without having to be invested. Thanks in advance.

The skit genesis was probably: “Hey, how can we mock pregnant women, disabled people and children?” “Who the hell would do THAT?” ”Jets fans!”

I put my wife on ignore and boy was that a mistake.

They are plenty of free and paid websites where you can find exactly whatever it is you’re looking for. Relying on a discussion board for your specific information needs is like shopping at a garage sale instead of Amazon.

You BASTARD! What I say on here MATTERS. A LOT! So does my Bills underwear. It’s the reason we’re in first place dammit.

He was thanking Pat for the f-u. Not really saying it on his own. When he says “Josh jumped right over that f-er”, THEN it will be news.

See post above by @ColoradoBills where he posted links to the Bills cash total. You can select other individual teams and see their individual numbers. You can’t pull up a combined list however.

Just a quick check, but the Bills are way above the cash spent by KC, Miami, Dallas and the few other contenders I looked at. Several teams are actually below the cap.

I appreciate all the time you took to do this. Thank you!

Do you have this info for all teams? Would like to see how the teams line up.

No! I was waiting for your analysis of how Barry Sanders compared to Singletary. I was wondering if I made a better choice than Thurman.

This is a trip!

Ha! I’m much older than you. Jack Barry was a game show host for a bunch of shows. He didn’t host Jeopardy however. That started with Art Fleming.

Yes, yes, go on………

…..in one of those horrible dark navy jerseys.

I was gonna go Jim Thorpe. 🤣

@BuffaninSarasota you catching all this talk about Josh? 🤣

Oooohh! Can I play? I’ll take Barry Sanders for $100 Jack.

Thanks to those that provided the history lessons in this thread. Very interesting stuff. I think it was on Twitter recently I saw some highlights of the Bisons-49ers from 1946. Very different game back then. Even the ball looked different - fatter. Here’s some highlights set to improvisational jazz. Go to the 29:00 mark and see (in color!) the unis the Bisons wore. Horrible. Same for their passing game. 🤣

The early to mid-1970s were a great time to be a kid in Buffalo. The Bills, Sabres and Braves were all really good, full of great personalities and had success. Sal Maiorana wrote a book about it: https://www.amazon.com/When-Buffalo-Atop-Sports-World/dp/B085K6R2TR/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?crid=3TUHUQX1SPFZ3&keywords=sal+maiorana+books&qid=1667509215&qu=eyJxc2MiOiIwLjAwIiwicXNhIjoiMC4wMCIsInFzcCI6IjAuMDAifQ%3D%3D&sprefix=sal+mai%2Caps%2C142&sr=8-1

For these large capital projects, I think it’s just the opposite - you don’t necessarily go with the lowest bid. You go with the firm that has a proven track record of bringing projects in on time and within budget. That way you have a firm experienced in estimating the cost up front as well as managing overruns. I’m not sure the Pegulas have a magic upper number in mind. If the overruns could be estimated with any certainty, they would be factored into the overall price. The current supply chain cost and availability issues makes these large construction projects even more difficult to estimate. Your best hedge against out of control overruns is to pick a firm with the experience and connections to minimize the uncertainties.

This explains it in very general terms. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/03/28/bills-owners-terry-and-kim-pegula-will-be-responsible-for-stadium-cost-overruns/amp/
