Let's revisit and grade 2017 draft
Albany,n.y. replied to No_Matter_What's topic in The Stadium Wall
I've seen a few posts in this thread linking the 2018 pick we got in the Mahomes trade to Josh Allen. That simply isn't true. That pick & the pick we got for Tyrod were traded for Edmunds. Allen was aquired with pick #12 (our own pick #21 + Cordy Glenn), our own 2nd & the 2nd we got from LA in the Watkins trade. It's actually more correct to link the Dawkins pick to the Allen pick. Dawkins emergence as a rookie enabled the Bills to package Glenn to Cincy with the 21st pick to move up to 12. -
The AFC Championship game is the early one (3PM)
Albany,n.y. replied to Albany,n.y.'s topic in The Stadium Wall
I've never understood the fan mentality that thinks they have to act like the players & coaches should be acting. We're not playing in the game. If we trash talk on a message board nobody is going to hang it up in the KC locker room to rile them up. I always tell people to stop blurring the lines, you're not playing next Sunday night. -
For those of us planning to go to the Super Bowl if the Bills make it, it gives us a head start in getting Super Bowl tickets, and travel plans started over the NFC team's fans.

Would NE do Mac Jones + picks for Watson?

He won't hit the rookie wall in future years. -

The Patriots aren't moving on from Mac Jones. He hit a rookie wall. He's never going to be a superstar but it's hard to upgrade from a guy whose best days may be in front of him. It takes years & a lot of luck to get a franchise QB. Nobody is trading for Watson until he is cleared legally & they know he will be available. The only possibility is a trade of future picks, none of them in the 2022 draft, which would be contingent on Watson being clear of his legal problems. -
You can have a favorite team & a 2nd favorite. I grew up in the suburbs of NYC. While I'm a Yankees fan, I also like the Mets & when I was living there as a kid and again in the 1980s I went to both their games & have been to both Yankee & Mets World Series games. As far as the NFL, I became a Bills fan in the early 1970s when I went to college in Fredonia & lived in Buffalo for a while in the late 70s & early 80s. My B team is the NY Giants & the only time I root against them is head to head vs the Bills or when I bet against them like the last week of this season. I've been to a few Giants games (not counting vs the Bills) and when the Raiders were in Oakland I used to go to games if they played Thanksgiving week and root for them. . In the NBA I'm a Nets fan 1st, but I get to go to Warriors games when I go out to visit family in the Bay area & I come home rooting for the Warriors. Just think of playoff games during the drought. Tell me you never end up rooting for a team & just watch the game as a neutral observer. I rooted for various teams all those seasons.

He won't put a ring on Brittany. My guess is after the game she told him "If you get a ring, I get a ring.

Parking - Bills lots advanced sale Ticketmaster
Albany,n.y. replied to davefan66's topic in The Stadium Wall
When you do you have to click" add ons" to get to parking. -
I've been watching ESPN's countdown show & among all the things said was when they were talking about the fact that there is a tarp over the field at Highmark because they don't want the turf to freeze & get hard which could cause concussions, Mortensen mentioned that the new stadium will have a grass field with a heating system underneath like in GB & KC. I have no idea how he knows that or thinks he knows that, but that's what he said.

Bills to add premium lounge sportsbook inside stadium
Albany,n.y. replied to BillsMafi$'s topic in The Stadium Wall
I was once on a Grand Jury where we indicted a bookie. They played tapes of him taking bets. The funniest one was from a degenerate gambler who sounded like he'd bet on anything. When he made his bet on some obscure college the bookie told him "If you can tell me where that college is, I'll pay you right now." -

The intro offer is only in NY, so you can't participate. They're also very strict on the "you have to be physically in NY" stuff. They have to be able to establish where you are betting from. Their locator works on my cell phone but it doesn't work on my desktop, laptop, or Kindle (incompatable with device), even after I downloaded their locator software on my desktop & laptop. So I have to make all my bets on my cell phone. -

They've had betting on games at Met Life next door at the Meadowlands racetrack on gamedays since they legalized sports betting in NJ. The only difference was that you had to put your bet in before the game. If you were a NJ resident & signed up for their online betting you can use your phone in the stadium the whole game. The only difference with the sportsbook in the stadium is you can bet without an account. -

If you put $20 in you can bet $340 ($300 bonus + $20 match + $20 deposit). That's not a bad deal for $20. -

They are matching up to $3,000 but there are a couple of problems with the match. It has to be used within 30 days. Now I'm a little fuzzy on the details, but you might have to wager around 6K to use it within 30 days. Here's my experience: When I signed up I got $300, then I had to deposit money to get the match. I chose $1,000 as my deposit. When I reviewed my account the money was divided into 2 groups Cash Balance and Bonus Balance. I had $1,000 in cash balance & $1,300 in bonus balance. Then I bet $50 and my cash balance went down to $950. I may or may not have been correct, but I was under the impression that I had to wager the entire bonus, so I bet $1,300 on the Giants game. When I looked at my account it read Cash Balance $0, Bonus Balance $950. I then bet the $950 in 2 different wagers on the Bills game (I split it & broke even). After I won 2 of the 3 bets all my money was in cash balance. I had bet the night game after I won the Giants game, the money went in my account within 10 minutes after the game. Since I bet it all, all my winnings went into cash balance. My concern with putting $3,000 in is there will be $3,300 in the bonus balance column. If you win & continue to have money in the cash balance and they withdraw all bet money from the cash balance 1st, you may never reach the bonus balance money within 30 days. In my case I had to use up the cash balance before it went to the bonus balance. Now I saw somewhere there might be a button on their site to use the bonus balance to bet, but I didn't find it. If my experience is indicative, the person who gets a $3,000 bonus better be a high roller. Now the answer may be to make a withdrawal that will come out of the cash balance. I ended up withdrawing $2,500 and it was in my bank account Thursday morning. I imagine you can withdraw the cash and get to the bonus balance that way. For anyone interested in opening an account I'd recommend Caesars because you get the best intro deal. There are no others that grow the account like you can with Caesars before your 1st bet. Fan Duel has a risk free bet up to $1,000 but you have to bet your own $1,000 and if you lose they give you a bet credit of what you bet, so unlike Caesars, you only get the bonus if your bet loses. For example, I put in $1,000 & I had $2,300 to bet. With FD, you only have $1,000, plus whatever their signing bonus is, if there is one, to bet. -
I got an e-mail from a local bus company that they had 7 seats in the 300s left at half price: $99.50. If the weather was warmer & there wasn't 10+ hour round trip in a packed bus with Omicron running rampant, I might have considered it. Instead, I'm staying home in my warm living room with no possible exposure to Omicron. .
