  1. That is bloody awful. On the other hand, I can totally see bong hits and alcohol leading to this. I passed outside a New Years party once (bong hits and alcohol) when I was seventeen. Luckily I was also tripping. Woke, walked back into the house and everyone stopped and stared. They said my skin was blue. Of course they may have been tripping too.

    I agree that based on the info we have, Araiza has very likely been punished enough. We will never know.

     

    But something being legal or acceptable in the past does not make it ok today. At all. Wtf kind of argument is that? Slavery (and many other terrible things) was legal 200 years ago, and is acceptable in some countries today, so it's ok?

     

    The law is the law, cross the line don't be surprised if you get burned.

     

    Slavery! Ha. Fine example. Making a great deal of sense. Understanding this guy's point. A one year age difference in the age of consent is exactly the same as slavery. Exactly!

    I have to admit that in all of my wasted years here reading and writing one inane post after another, yours is at the top of the heap.  Well done.

     

    I remain truly baffled at how you processed the thoughts to come up with this.

    You seem like the type who is often baffled. No worries!

    I struggle to understand this fan base sometimes.  Many seem to actively search for ways to downplay the team’s fortunes and/or denigrate specific players, management and such.  Examples include:

     

    1.  Ragging on for years on Edmunds, then as soon as he leaves in free agency ragging on Beane for not resigning or replacing him.

     

    2.  Ragging on Beane for not having a veteran guy behind Brown at RT,  then ragging on him because the guy he got retired (as if Beane should be Nostradamus) then ragging on getting Ifedi as if we were going to get an All Pro.

     

    There are many such examples.  But the last 24 hours or so have taken the cake, because who are we negative on now?  Josh Allen.  And why?  Mainly because of two articles from the gasbag known as Jason Whitlock, the first of which he said was a lie, then the second of which he claims Josh doesn’t work hard enough and it’s supposedly well known.  Throw in an interview with MacAfee where Josh specifically states he watches a lot of film but qualifies what he takes from it, and all of a sudden it’s Josh that is why the Bills haven’t won a Lombardi.  It’s Josh who drinks too much (one incident with Kyle Allen), Josh who doesn’t work out, Josh who doesn’t spend enough time on football in the off-season (put your TV on and measure in minutes how long till you see Mahomes in a commercial).  Or Josh impregnating waitresses, which no reputable news source has validated.

     

    All this leads me to ask:  what the hell is wrong with some people around here?  I am not saying Josh can’t improve.  He needs to continue learning to take the short routes, get the ball out quicker, etc.  but to claim he is now somehow the problem, that it’s his work ethic, that as one person said here that they don’t like Josh personally  as if he actually has ever met the guy?  Come on.

     

    I have thought for quite a long time there are folks on this board that really want the Bills to lose so they can somehow crow on a message board that they were right.  I think some of the stuff we’re seeing is some bizarre defense mechanism people throw up as a guard should the Bills not win it all.  
     

    Me?  I’ve been a fan since 1960 when I was 5 years old.  I will do as I’ve always done, enter the season with optimism and then see how things go.  Offer praise when merited as well as criticism when merited.  But to actively seek out reasons for negativism, even to the point of believing nonsensical crap to do so?  I don’t get it.

     

     

    I never wanted to thiNk if Spiro Agnew ever again. But you make fair points.

  5. So much better than Mike  Robitaille. Ha

     

    Bills aside, have never had more of an emotional breakdown than when the Nordiques came back from 5-2. Foligno scored the tying goal and it was called back on a bogus offside whistle. I was nine, so maybe memory skewed, but Ric seiling taking on Dale hunter was something. Jimmy Mann trying to bait Lindy ruff into a fight. Bergeuron chewing his cud. 

     

    We almost never listened to the TV feed. Wanted to kill Scotty Bowman. Ha
