As has been said many times, ‘anyone can sue you for anything’ but these cases always bother me. If you were financially damaged by someone then I can see the purpose and remedy provided by a civil suit. But, suing someone because you failed in an attempt at criminal charges has never seemed appropriate to me. Nor in my opinion, is it the intent of the law.
I agree. Especially waiting 4 years/until the other person has big money.

Massive shlit post bump barrage from two posters overnight.
Massive.
Yeah, just saw that. Time to up the meds...

LOL! Why the bump? We're more nationally secure than ever.

I've never voted for someone based on how "virtuous" he/she is. And the Dems lost any moral high ground with Slick Willy 35 years ago.

The hole is not at large as you think it is. But I'm not surprised that everyone has their panties in a was. It's all you see and hear in the media.
Going by 2024 numbers, Buffalo scored 269 goals which puts them 9th in league scoring. JJ scored 27 of those goals.
If Buffalo gets 13 goals from all the new players added, that includes Norris, in 2025, they with have 257 goals, which would rank at #12 last year. That isn't a big drop.
But now what is all the defensive improvements lower your goals against by 20 goals? Your +/- actually improves.
It's the goaltending. They need a Miller at least. Preferably a Hasek.

you would think so and I believe it to be true. It makes sense to me at least
The need at the position and Mr Hairstons ball skills trumped their concern over his alleged situation
so much for the Bills only drafting the squeaky clean guy all the time. And he still might be squeaky clean we don't know what occurred between those 2 people.
This will become a popcorn thread. Wait and see what happens,
Bottom line I hope he joins the team and contributes. we need him to.
What it seems you're implying is they didn't investigate the incident or found something but didn't care, just because of need and talent. I'm saying they must have thoroughly investigated it because they were planning on using a lot of resources and because of what happened with Araiza and found nothing of merit, so they went ahead and drafted him.

you're fixed on how many teams passed on this or that player as though every team has exactly the same needs.
You are the only person alive who would agree that Tre White would have had a bigger impact than TJ Watt. This is just laughable. Watt is a wrecker, disrupter. White was a good DB for 4 years---ending 4 years ago. The cut him loose after his achilles (his second career threatening injury)....only to bizarrely sign him years later after 2 mediocre/dud years on 2 teams, having played only 21 games since 2021. I'll leave it to you to revisit Watt's stats.
LOL! Every team has premier pass rusher as a need. If they teams knew how good he would be, he'd have been drafted top-5. He lasted until 30 because he had 1 year of any production whatsoever, his last one, out of 4 in college.
And who knows what he would have done for Buffalo? All I know is what happened. A team everyone thought was tanking and had most of its talented players shipped-off made the playoffs for the first time in 17 years.
But don't worry, as has been said numerous times, McD was running the draft that year. He essentially fired himself when he recommended Beane.

who would have been more of a key player?
McD passing on Mahomes AND Watt is fireable.
Good question? Take a look at the Bills' 2017 roster and get back to me.
LOL! Watt was passed-over by 27 teams. And again the Bills got Allen the following year so not even worth mentioning.

CBs don't turn around a franchise. TJ Watt would have been far more value....
4-5 of those 9 teams are the worst run franchises in the NFL, so what's your point? They made another bad decision?
What part of "a key player" don't you understand?
There were still "4-5" who weren't the worst run franchises who passed on him. And again, it was McD running the draft.

Oh c'mon - @Doc's a good guy even if he is just a little impressionable. No matter how hard he tries, he’s never going full MAGA like the Three B’s: - @BillsFanNC @B-Man @Big Blitz.
Thanks for the kind words but not impressionable at all anymore.

I do, and it would have been something.
They seem to think that Trump wasn't going to bomb anyone during his 2nd term, even though he did in his first one. Or that he wouldn't bomb new places.

Oh, it matters a lot. The US had never struck inside Iran until now. So let’s drop the fantasy that Trump’s so-called ‘Middle East peace’ was anything more than a PR stunt wrapped in a campaign bullet point, just like peace through strength.
Again, where is there war?
And we were too afraid in the past to bomb inside Iran for fear of reprisal. That appears to have been unfounded.

Funny considering you never took Biden at his word when he said he'd "shut down the virus" and didn't come close to it.

on e was in Manhattan. One was in an isolated mountain in Iran. See the difference?
No. That "isolated mountain" was housing nuclear facilities. You think they're just going to say "well, it's obliterated, we're just going to leave it alone forever"?

Just now, Homelander said:
Before the so-called ‘pro-peace’ candidates came along, when exactly was the last time the US bombed inside Iran?
Were you around during Trump's first term? This is what he did during it. Outside or inside doesn't matter.

3 minutes ago, Homelander said:
Definitely sounds like the pro-peace ticket - just keep bombing indefinitely and hope no one notices it’s basically the Bush Doctrine in a MAGA hat. Nothing says diplomacy like an endless loop of explosions and zero strategy for what comes next. You voted for that right
It is pro-peace. Where do you see war breaking out?
You guys are just pissed that your side's appeasement didn't work. Because the only thing they understand is brute force.

You had fake science. Now you have fake peace.
Brilliant observation. I never saw excavation equipment or cranes at the WTC...
And yes, paper/cloth mask, 6 feet and riots not being super-spreader event sure was "real" science.

Nothing screams foreign policy genius like a flashy airstrike that delays Iran's nuke program by a few months, rattles the whole region, and rebrands ‘mission accomplished’ for MAGA cosplay. But sure, if the real goal was to look tough on cable news while Iran quietly rebuilds and your base loses healthcare, then yeah... mission very much accomplished.
Try "indefinitely." Again, they try to rebuild it, we bomb it again. And again. And again.
As for "rattling the whole region," yep. That was the point.

I don't understand what the Dolphins are doing.
I assume that Waller won't cost a lot so they're hoping for a cheaper alternative to Jonnu Smith.

The issue with the Sabres to me are the players. Terry could be a better owner sure, but throughout the drought there have been very good players on the roster who have done great before or after their Sabres time, but didn’t perform at that level in Buffalo. What is needed is a captain that runs the locker room and will not accept anything less than maximum effort from everyone on the roster. Eichel wasn’t that, Okposo wasn’t, and I have my doubts about Dahlin.
The players need to step up and play hard. Many of them go through the motions. My biggest example is Power. The next time I see him stand a guy up at the blue line or move a guy from in front of the net will be my first. I’d trade him and keep Bowen.
Tage needs to be the leader.

If this is the case (which I certainly do not doubt), why would anyone be willing to believe that he has the final, or even an equal say to McDermott wrt the draft? I really wish I could understand this.
So who takes the blame for trading away Mahomes for peanuts and drafting a corner?
I know you hate 1st round CBs Bill, but I believe that Tre' was a key player in turning the franchise around. We can agree to disagree.
As for Mahomes, as has been said, it wasn't Beane running that draft and the draft value was spot-on. And Mahomes wasn't considered a sure thing otherwise he'd have been taken by any of the 9 teams drafting before he was taken, who all arguably had a need at QB. And if the Bills hadn't drafted Josh the following year, I'd agree it was a huge mistake.

They used to say you should build your team to win your division.
The Dolphins saw us with no WRs and decided to build a team with no CBs
No WRs was last year. And they had CBs. Didn’t work out so well.
Brandon Beane "might be the most sensitive GM in the entire NFL"?

I agree. But would that ensure a Super Bowl win?
