Ah, the always impressive "I know you are but what am I" response. Savage! Seriously, you're telling me you look at these two posts: ...and your conclusion is that the second is the totally rude and personal one while the first is just a totally innocent, objective statement of fact (nothing personal at all!). Sure. I mean, I guess if you're living on your own personal bizarro world? As for "others agreeing with me" I guess I'd compare the handful of those who did with the now 320+ board members who voted in the poll and extended this thread to 9 pages. Apparently a lot more thought there was, in fact, room for another thread, your ALL CAPS bewilderment notwithstanding. Again, as other have repeatedly pointed out, just ignore the thread if you don't like it. Nobody's forcing you to interact.

Oh, I see. So your original post was not personal in any way? Sure thing.

Sorry, didn’t realize you were so sensitive about these things.

'Cause I wanted to do a poll to see where people stand on the issue of a 2nd rounder for DHop. Sorry if that offends you, but I don't think burying a poll in the middle of a 216-page thread will really give us a sense of where most people stand. If you'd prefer yet another thread on someone we should or should not draft, maybe I can better serve you next time.

Wow, life must be pretty tough.

Just trying to see what the balance of opinions are, champ.

I was right!! Wow. Saban was beside himself about allowing the Fins to drive for a TD in 56 seconds...can't imagine how he'd feel about 13 seconds...

Something made me think it was Miami, and the answer is no. But I could totally be making that up.

I would guess Beane is waiting to see what falls in the draft before signing him.

Sounds like Beane kicking the tires on a potential 4th back in case someone they like fails to fall to them in the draft.

I like Keenum and I think they'll bring him back, as they seem to prefer guys who already know the system. That said, I never felt very confident that Keenum could come in and get the job done. I don't know if Mariota could, but it will be interesting to see if they look at anyone else out there. Many options.

Interestingly, no. I had been a customer since 2005, and the person remarked several times about that, so I was expecting some kind of push to keep me. But they never offered anything, which is fine, since I had no intention of staying with them and didn't want to stay on the phone very long.

I actually came here to say exactly the same thing.

Same here. I haven't had any real problems with DTV and I've had it for many years. Pretty satisfied customer overall, though if there was one thing I didn't like it was the cost and all of the extra crap channels I was paying for. This past week I decided to cut ties and make the move to YouTube TV. Basically getting everything I had before for about 1/3 to 1/2 the cost. The flexibility is great, and although there are still a number of channels I think are ridiculous to have to pay for, overall I'm pretty happy with it and it's a smooth step up from satellite. Just a couple of thoughts from a guy who's rapidly becoming a dinosaur, in case there are others who are hesitant about the switch.

Man, recency bias is a real b!tch.

Often thought about which was worse...Troup over Gronk, or Whitner over Ngata. Whitner at least had a few decent years, but while Ngata was awesome Gronk is probably the best all-time at the position. 😢

It would be more impressive if it was outdoors, but since this is a Bills game I'll allow it.

Hell, if there's room, might as well italicize it too.

Whew, got mine. There were 2000+ people in the queue when I signed in right at the start (!), but it went really fast. Plenty of great seats were still available.

Seems like our guards are very susceptible to stunts, and our RT is repeatedly susceptible to outside rushes. Those seem like things that could be corrected, but aren't, for whatever reason.

I was watching that part of the game without sound, and it didn't look like an in-bounds catch to me (spectacular, but not in bounds)...but they kept replaying it over and over, like there was a chance it was...? Can someone explain that? It didn't look close to me.

I guess I'm pretty much the only person who didn't have a huge problem with that block. I rewatched it and it looked to me like the guy initiated the block as Andrews was running alongside him. It looks like a block in the back because Andrews is running past him, so as he initiates contact, his hand is on his back right shoulder and it appears like he pushes into his back. But to me, it was contact initiated when they were side-by-side as Andrews was speeding past him. Close enough to me, I guess.

Our offensive line is a huge liability, much greater than it seems because of Josh's ability to escape from trouble. But obviously (as yesterday) he's not always able to do so. Right now, we could use upgrades at three positions—both G and RT. Either that, or get them to figure things out. Right now, they are just killing us.

Seems to me that dedicating a man to spy on Josh should either (1) reduce the pass rush pressure on him, or (2) leave someone open downfield. Feels like we should be able to take greater advantage of it than we are.
