  1. It's offered for free to subscribers in certain foreign markets. Makes sense, as

     

    I live in New Zealand and it's free for me, but I remember discussing this with someone else on this board that lived somewhere else(Thailand?), and it wasn't free for them.

    I've had GamePass for last season and now this one and it kicks ass.

     

    how did you get that?

  2. That being said... I wonder how many plays will be in the games whe we play The Pats.

    It could be nuts.

    I think it's going to (finally) be an exciting era in Bills football.

     

     

     

    They are in better condition than most teams. Only Philly and NEP* are running plays in camp at the 14-16 sec. rate.

  3. Hear, hear!

    Well said, Dan.

     

    This franchise has sucked eggs for a lot of years now and just received the huge purge its needed for a long time.

     

    We've dreamt for years that something like this would happen and now it finally has.

     

    All areas point to a brighter future, and with such a young roster, our future could be very bright for a long time.

     

    Go Bills!

     

    We're back, deal with it America!

     

    Let me start off with a quick explanation as to why Lt. Dan went dark for the past couple of years - Chan Gailey, Ryan Fitzpatrick and Ralph Wilson being involved in personnel moves. Simple enough, but those three things left me without much of a heart to post on this site or any other about my beloved Bills. It was a sad thing to think about, so why write about it? Well, a lot has changed in the past year, and here are my observations -

     

    First and foremost, the culture has changed. If you don't see that, then you've been asleep at the wheel of this franchise for the past decade. Whaley, and Marrone in particular, have brought in a staff and attitude that is matches both the intensity of the game and the 21st century version of that game. The philosophies on both sides of the ball, and the way they are being taught, is a complete 180 on recent years. We finally seem to be committing to modern, complex schemes on both sides of the ball, and I can't wait to see the difference when it counts. From the banners hanging in the field house to the way Marrone, Hackett, Pettine and Co. seem to be out there teaching, the change is tangible already.

     

    Second would be EJ Manuel. If you cant get excited even simply listening to this young man speak, then I don't know what to tell ya. Let alone the fact that he's an incredible athlete who has the ability to make every throw and get himself out of trouble with his legs. He's the picture of the modern NFL quarterback. But the real point is that he seems like a bright, humble kid and a leader of men. And he's only been around these men for a couple of months.

     

    The youth as a whole on this team is very exciting. EJ, Woods, Alonso, Goodwin and Rogers all seem as though they at least have the potential to have a very bright future in this league. Not to mention Gilmore, who in my eyes is already a shutdown corner, and Cordy Glenn who did nothing but impress following his injury last year. And there's that CJ Spiller guy.

     

    The bottom line is that the young talent on this team, combined with the completely overhauled leadership in the coaching staff and front office, has definitely raised my spirits. Everyone's should be risen. This team is on the upswing, maybe fast, and it is looking like the next few years are going to be a fun, fun ride at the very least.

     

    We're back America, deal with it!

  4. Favourite beach?

    There are so many around here, but if I had to choose one, it would be Totaranui Beach, in the Abel Tasman National Park, right across the bay from us.

    ( top of the South Island of New Zealand)

     

    Wharariki Beach comes in second.

     

    Oh... Curio Bay, on the bottom of the South Island is also a magical spot, on The Southern Ocean.

    Great surf... Seals... Dolphins... Whales and Penguins on the remnants of a petrified forest.
