  1. Sure, that's how it looks right now, but I think it will change. 40 years ago, there were no foreign players in the NBA, and few Europeans in the NHL.
  2. Yeah, MLB slit its own throat by ignoring the obvious problems with the game for years on end (three and a half-hour games, out of control PEDs, etc.). While people will argue about some of the NFL's decisions (international games, Thursday night football, rule changes) the sport's audience goes up every year, both home and abroad. I don't particularly like the international games, either, but they are part of the league's long-term strategy. I believe that strategy includes not just increasing the overseas TV audience, but increasing the number of kids playing football overseas. Football participation is shrinking in the US and in order to ensure a strong product, I think the NFL is hoping to be able to develop a pipeline of foreign talent, much like the NBA has done. The NFL has a long way to go--and football faces obstacles overseas that basketball does not--but it's certainly not impossible.
  3. I just jumped on DraftKings to check the current odds. The Bills have the fourth best odds to win the AFC, ahead of the Texans, Jets and Dolphins, and also have the best odds to make the playoffs of any AFCE team. The national talking heads can’t stop s***ing off the Jets, but Vegas knows better…I love that the national media is ignoring the Bills this year.
  4. Now can we talk about all the games the Bills narrowly lost last year? 12 men on field, the Philly debacle, etc…
  5. I think we would have gotten in as the 7 seed, as it turned out.
  6. The Bills let the Chiefs get him. They traded pick 27 to the Chiefs, which they used to draft Worthy. Cause and effect.
  7. I’m certainly not opposed to the signing, but I’m a little surprised they didn’t wait a while on this. If Van Demark and/or Grable continue to develop, you could have considered letting Brown walk, save the $, and take the comp pick.
  8. I thought NFL agents were limited to a 4% cut…
  9. Dont think that’s reversible
  10. I’m not sure Bateman was touched there.
  11. Surely Mahomes was interfered with…
  12. Just like the Pats 10 years ago…every single call goes their way
  13. Absolute joke of a holding call
  14. He can’t. That’s why the Bills have had so much success against him.
  15. That won’t stop them…
  16. If Lamar didn’t throw that ball into Chenal’s chest, that would have been a touchdown!
  17. WTF was that? Competing?
  18. But he’s competing his tail off!
  19. Ravens offense looks much better with Henry out there.
  20. That was a Josh Allen throw
