  1. Don't understand why the Bills are so hush hush about everything. Based off the news reports and thier shared time-lapse, we now know the Bills have a camera mounted on the current stadium but they are not live streaming it. 

     

    Also, we have fly throughs of the Titan's new stadium & many others, but nothing on ours. 

     

    Public money deserves transparency, yet again, Pegula does it wrong.

     

    Just like when the Sabres unveiled new/alternate jerseys, had to wait to see what they were going to look like until a week before they wore them, while every other team shows them months in advance. 

     

    For some reason, Pegula thinks this builds anticipation, but in reality, it pisses people off!

    from the ref's vantage point it probably looked like the defender was starting to win and Dion tackled him.

     

    but the ref thought it was a tackle.

    These are the 2 points in your post that are my biggest problem with the "part time" NFL ref's.... 

     

    They call what they "think" happens, not what they actually see. If they don't actually see it, don't call it! Rather have missed calls than made up calls. So frustrating.

  3. Growing up, I hated the dolphins but respected Marino. Also respected Elway, Montana and others. If Josh was not here, I believe I would put him on par with them. He is a good person and qb. 

     

    On the other hand, don't like or respect Brady, he is a duche. Even if Mayfield was good, wouldn't like him for the same reason. 

     

    Someone like Mahomes I'm on the fence about. He doesn't overly come off as douchey, but his girl and brother do, and he defends them. I know they are his family and you defend your family, but... 

  4. ­­I think they should do a shoot-out type formula.

    • Each team gets 3 plays from the 10 yard line.
    • You could score 3 times. 1 point for each time you make it in the end zone.

    If tied after each team gets 3 attempts, it goes to sudden death with the same formula.

    • Team A goes, then team B.
    • If tied still, keep going until at the end of a round, there is a winner.

    This will do the following:

    • Each team will always get the same amount of tries.
    • No more whining about fare possessions.
    • Puts the focus on both offense and defense
    • Put the game in he hands of the star players. (Sorry, special team guys, your day is done. If your best player is a returner or kicker, get better players.)

    This should be done for regular season AND playoffs.

    • NO MORE TIES!!!

    But does the NFL own the stadiums themselves?  I'm honestly not sure, but I don't think they have sole ownership of the stadiums themselves where they can call all the shots.  I THINK (and I could be wrong) that in many cases the stadiums are either co-owned or rented by the local municipalities or some other local entity.  I think only a few stadiums are owned outright by the team owners.

    No the county owns the stadium, BUT PSE leases it and therefore makes the policy. PSE AGREES with the vaccination mandate.

     

    This is the same as a restaurant leasing a building. If the restaurant says, no masks, no service, it is their right. You have the right not to go to said restaurant, but you have no say in their policies and can be denied entry or told to leave. The owner of the building cannot over ride the restaurant's policies.

    I'm big on freedom of choice, not banning/demanding citizens follow suit.

    So, with that logic, you would be OK with someone "choosing" to hurt someone you love with a car, a weapon, or anything else?

     

    They shouldn't have been in the way of my car? It was their choice to walk in front of my car in the crosswalk, heck I was driving and I didn't choose to stop for that red light? See how ridiculous that sounds? Just as it is ridiculous to not wear a mask around others you do not know during a FREAK-EN PANDEMIC! It's not like there is no reason to do this.

     

    Your argument holds NO merit. A civilized, free society will always need laws to PROTECT people from stupid, ignorant and/or uncaring people.

    they demand you wear a seatbelt while driving...is that overreach? Free societies have laws meant to protect them

    The key word here is "them". If it is meant to protect them, they are all for it. If it is meant to protect others, it's an over reaching inconvenience that must be stopped. To hell with others apparently.

    But what you are missing is that events like stuff in stadiums can spread the disease quickly and bring it to other people who didn't even go.

    EXACTLY!

    And I won't go to a stadium, being high risk. My immune system is shot from radiation I'm getting, and the virus could kill me quickly.

    This is the exact reason I wear a mask! If I ever come across you in life (or someone else you may come across down the line), I will do everything in my power to help you not catch this DEADLY virus. People thinking more about themselves and their inconveniences do not belong in a civilized society. Take care my friend.

    It's overreach to demand citizens of a free society to wear masks IMO. Now, I can see at grocery stores and pharmacies, but in parks and at sports stadiums, just no, people can choose not to go to those places.

    With that, is it an over reach in a free society for the gov't to tell you to go 55 mph on the thruway? Why not go 100? You will get there faster. It's your right. To be damned with the other people on the road. Heck, if you hit them and kill them because of your speed, they shouldn't have been driving. They should have stayed home. SMH!!!!

    I understand that masks are for protecting others. The best way for those at higher risks from comorbidity is to stay home, and not to rely on gov't forcing others to wear masks. Masks are def not a guarantee of non-transmittel.

    But some people don't have an option to stay home. No family in the area, no money to pay for others to do things for them. Telling them they have an option is such a "privileged" comment.

     

    True, masks are not a guarantee, but they help ALOT. Not wearing a simple piece of cloth to help protect even just one person is immoral. These are the same people that are the most dumbfounded when a relative gets sick and dies.

    People at risk can CHOOSE to wear masks and stay home... 

    I don't understand this comment and I definitely don't understand how people don't get this...

     

    You wear a mask to protect OTHERS! So it's not about the people at risk choosing to wear them, it does not help them, it helps YOU. 2nd, some people CAN NOT stay home. They may have to work, go to the grocery store or whatever. Not everyone has options to stay home, not work, or could afford to pay someone to go shopping for them.

     

    Saying "People at risk can CHOOSE to wear masks and stay home" is just about the most ignorant comment anyone can make!

    At least make it reviewable. These refs are seeing money signs. 

    This. Still remember the Jacksonville game a few years ago. The ref (based on the angle he had) called PI against us and the Jags won. Replay (from a different angle the ref had) showed we were 5 yards off the reciever. Would have made playoffs that year if we would have won that game (which we would have without that penalty).

    It will be downtown Buffalo.  Enough about the stadium

    "The stadium is not being built downtown for the last time.  Pegula wants the Bills fans to enjoy the tailgating experience and you cannot do that downtown." 

     

    YOUR WORDS on 12/15/17!

    You said in a previuos thread and I quote "The stadium is not being built downtown for the last time.  Pegula wants the Bills fans to enjoy the tailgating experience and you cannot do that downtown." 

    Your words there bud.

    I believe my source, you believe the newspapers.  They don’t work at obd

    Are you now saying your source does? You posted in a previous thread that your source was fired from OBD and he was feeding you info to get back at them. Keep your stories strait. Medication will help you  do this. 

  16. Chad, I went and re-read all of your posts. You started off great and contributed to these boards. Then something just changed. Did you stop taking medication? If so, for your own safety, please resume taking them. Mental health issues are real and medications are there to help.
