Dr. Who

And I bet you he doesn't even make good cookies.

Well, yes, I can't really say, but first round playoff flame out is pretty close to an eternal truth of the Platonic variety. And no matter how bad the Sabres are -- and we're not really bad any more, we tend to own them, how sad for the entitled French speaking surrender monkeys.

I have a Korean friend who says that they have a saying that there is a direct analogy between age and the experienced speed of time's flight. When you are ten, it is as if you are driving a car at 10 mph. Summer vacation is an entire world unto itself. Christmas takes forever to arrive. When you are middle-aged, time is fairly brusque. At fifty-five, there are no idylls for dreaming and wonder. At eighty, well, it's getting rather uncomfortable to be racing along, especially when it's unclear how much road is paved ahead.

Fella is a troll. He's just here to share his "ominous vibe." Folks who reply to him as if he were a real fan with serious observations aren't paying attention or don't mind playing along with someone who finds it gratifying to propose negative outcomes, no matter how dubious the reasoning.

He really needs to save that kind of abandon for playoffs and truly must win games. I'm sure the coaching staff knows this. Josh knows it, but his competitive spirit gets the best of him. But it's just not wise and unnecessary. We are good enough to win most games without the risky stuff. (But absolutely "no", I can't agree with you about "if Josh Allen quit playing football today." It may be casual entertainment to you, but I can't be a fan with that measure of indifference.)

And here I was really looking forward to having 119 sacks for the season.

This is correct. He started off with a poorly chosen metaphor and couldn't get out of it.

Prophetic.

Doesn't apply if you go full blueberry.

If you are consistently reaching the quarterfinals of majors, you're clear above the average line.

Just a side note, but I'm pretty sure women just look hotter in Bills' gear.

She's a top ten player right now, but if she wants to really threaten to win a major, she has to make her serve more dangerous.

Look for the gal wearing a #88 jersey.

Paradoxically, it's the logical thing to do.

It's definitely well beyond simply protesting the war.

Well, I'm a Braves' fan, but honestly, I'm starting to feel sorry for Mets' fans. Before now, they've been really impressive keeping it together this year. Still think they'll be dangerous in the playoffs, regardless, but obviously it's a big advantage to win the division.

I'm surprised you were unaware of her views since you are an avid follower of tennis. There is some attention getting grievance going on, but I don't think there's any doubt that were her personal ethics and politics more congenial to what is considered educated opinion, she would be celebrated rather than largely ignored. I see the Mets are struggling against their fate . . .

I am not bound to please thee with my answer.

I understand the rationale. I agree with it. I was attempting to explicate the nature of the "confusion" expressed by the post that was responded to by the post I answered. I think the nature of the prior post was misunderstood and thought I would clarify. Alas, it was a minor point and has now engendered more response than merited.

No, we're going to confuse the wind until it agrees to behave properly. Personally, I hope there is a plan so that once the wind is adequately trained, we can get it to mess with the opposition field goals and the like.

I'm sure he knows that. The point he is making is that Beane is saying we want a veteran punter, though we were evidently prepared to go with Araiza. The unspoken presupposition is that Araiza appeared to be a unique talent. Otherwise, the default is an experienced punter, which we now have.

Denver asked him to take a paycut and Martin said no.

You might want to PM RunJoshRun.

I think the institution of journalism has lost objectivity for a long time now. But in general, this is correct.

Dorian Gray reference. Nice, and probably true.
