  1. It is a joke he had to apologize for anything, he said nothing wrong and if someone is offended by that that is their problem not his. It does pretty sum up the sad state of affairs in this country though, everybody is looking to play card. If NBC told him to apologize I would told them to f off. He said nothing wrong.
  2. This couldn't of worked out better for the mets, they are off the hook for $24 mil and now Cano won't take innings and abs away from some of the younger guys that are more productive. Cano was always a throw in for the Diaz trade. My guess is that trade never pans out of the Mets don't take on Cano's contract. Everybody knew it was a bad contract. Diaz was obviously horrible his first year with the Mets but he was lights out the year before & pretty good this abbreviated season. Hopefully he will be that stopper we need going forward. Go after bauer with the extra cash, that 24 mill should cover at least the first year of his contract. Thor gets back into form and now you got something.
  3. Totally agree & Oats I think was a pretty hot commodity after what he did with UB 2 straight tournaments. Hurly & Gill, not sure they had that kind of leverage. I have talked to a few people within the program at UB and they said they knew all along the first good offer that came by Hurley's way he was leaving.
  4. Excellent point & I think that is what led me to lose it for the Denver game. It just seem back then "What crazy way are we going to find a way to lose the home opener this year?"
  5. I don't hate TG at all. Can't blame him for going for the dollars. Nate Oats is another one. I mean, he got paid, but Alabama is a tough place to win when it comes to basketball. So is Bobby Hurley, another tough place to win at ASU. Always taking a back seat to Arizona, unrealistic expectations. I guess you have to strike when the iron is hot though so can't blame them for leaving, especially when these other schools are tripling their salaries.
  6. It is a stepping stone program but it needs to be the right fit. Look back at Turner Gill, promising young coach, took the job at Kansas. Horrible move for him although his bank account may disagree with me.
  7. Yeah I don't take the losses as hard anymore. I am 48 and have been a Bills fan since Kelly's first year so I have seen it all. I tend to look on the bright side now. We are 7-3, in great shape & I am 99% sure we finally got our guy in Allen. This kid is going to bring us home the Lombardi trophy soon, maybe not this year but soon. I haven't felt this good about the bills since the super bowl years.
  8. I actually walked home from the stadium after Denver made that kick I was so disgusted. It started pouring rain about 5 minutes into my walk. Walking down southwestern pretty inebriated and depressed I decided to get out of the rain & stop in at Zebs for a burger. I looked like such a defeated homeless person reeking of booze at that point when I was waiting to sit down the manager actually asked me to show some money before they sat me down. Looking back, I probably should of been more offended by that then I was but at that point I just didn't care. I finally got home around 7 at night, my wife was worried sick. She asked where I was. I told her "I was mad the Bills loss so I decided to walk home." She told me to grow up. To this day she doesn't understand my passion for the Bills. But that game hurt, wouldn't put it in the top 5 but it hurt nonetheless. It was jay Cutlers & Marshawn Lynch's first game as rookies.
  9. Relax, we have 3 winnable games coming up. Take care of business against the Chargers/SF/Denver and Miami will have to beat us in our backyard to get the division. Even if we don't win the division what's the difference. Czar Cuomo isn't about to let fans into the game so if we have to go on the road as a wild card so be it.
  10. I graduated in 91. My one friend went to St Joes, told me this story of this kid always picking on this weaker kid. This went on for awhile I guess. One of the teachers found out about and told the bully he is waiting for him out in the parking lot after school and he is going to kick his a**. Said lets see how you do fighting against someone your own size. After school my told me the teacher was waiting for the kid out in the parking lot, word got around school what was going down & there was quite a crowd there too. The teacher even got on a megaphone and was calling the kid out, the bully refuse to leave the school. & guess what, my friend said the bully never picked on the other kid again. IToday's society coddles kids. I fear for the future.
  11. A lot of speculation here, I will break it down way easier. This turnaround would of never happened under Mr. Wilson's watch(god rest his soul) since he would of kept Rusty around. Nothing was getting turned around until Rusty was shown the door which wouldn't of happened under Mr. Wilson's watch.
  12. That is almost as much as I pay for my season tickets for the Bills game. That sounds way steep but I guess if they only allowing x amount of fans in, there is price gouging going on. I did notice you can get a room at Ceasars on the weekend for like $60 which is crazy. Now I see why.
  13. No kidding, I was thinking of going to Vegas for a long weekend next month, got to get away from the almighty King Cuomo's & his trusty henchman Poloncarz for a few days but maybe I will rethink that. Vegas is my favorite place to visit. I love it there.
  14. Ah yes those were fun times. I was in College too & we pretty much drank until we puked. I remember my dad had early flight with his friends to Miami for the bills game one Saturday morning. He asked me to drive him to the airport earlier that week. Here it is 4:30 in the morning my dad is all excited to go on his trip he asked if I was ready to take him and here I am dry heaving on the front porch. I looked at him & said "yeah dad why don't you give me a minute."
  15. What was UB doing on that last drive, all they had to do was kneel the ball. I had UB -14 and that could of turned out to be a disaster. Doesn't Lance have any consideration for the betting public? I loss a lot of respect for him last night.😁
  16. Yeah Stidham sucked at Auburn and he sucks now, you don't want him as your QB. The best thing for the Pats now is to try to ship Gilmore off, tank the season and zero in on a QB. Not sure if the Pats could get Lawrence, but Fields would be a nice consolation prize. & as far as who was more responsible BB or Brady, I will say this. BB is a great coach but every successful long tenured coach has something in common over the past 25-30 years. They have had a true franchise QB to work with. BB had the greatest QB to ever play the game. That had a lot to do with his success.
  17. Your ridiculous. They are 6-2 with what we could all agree was loaded front half of the schedule & they just put a nail in the coffin of the team that has won the division 11 years in a row and has tormented us for the past 2 decades. If you can't be happy about the Bills situation this morning my guess is there is no pleasing you. A wise old man once told me "90% of the fun is enjoying the journey to get to your destination." There is a lot of truth to that statement as I remember Bills super bowl runs, and the funnest times were watching that team grow and continue to take steps to where they wanted to go. Go rewatch the 89 Monday night game against the Broncos. They loss the game but I remember Dierdorf mentioned at the top of the game he has never seen a city so excited about the future of this team and mentioned a few times about the electricity in the stadium that night. What an ignorant Debbie downer post, bit I don't expect anything less from you.
  18. I guaranty if Clemson has to play ND without Lawrence and ND wins, the committee will be willing to give Clemson a mulligan for that game if they run the table and beat ND in the ACC Championship. They will pick Clemson over some other undefeated team if it comes down to that.
  19. I will add the first year of my first born was the worst year of my life. Constantly crying, acid reflux, so many times I would find myself driving him around the neighborhood at 3 am to try to get him asleep. I was walking zombie that first year. My wife and I were constantly fighting. She had post pardon depression and she was absolutely nuts. One night I came home from work and I guess I bought the wrong formula and she actually threw a fulled diaper at my head. I ducked and it splattered across the wall. I don't want to scare you, just telling you how it was for me. It got better after the first year or I was divorcing her for sure. She will even admit she wasn't right back then. It took her 6 years to convince me to have another kid but our daughter was one of those really easy babies you read about in magazines. Slept full nights right out of the shoot, never cried. But is all good now, my son is my best friend, 16, I will be devastated when he goes off to college in a few years. My daughter is an angel. Having kids is the best thing in the world. Congrats and take a moment to enjoy the ride, they grow up very fast.
  20. We are just going over my sisters who also lives in Lancaster. My parents will be there and my BIL parents. We do that every year, but usually my cousins come in from Vegas but they are not this year. I did get some good news today. My wife's cousin called her and said they are not having everybody over for Christmas Day this year due to Covid. Music to my ears as I hate going over there. I think I will buy some nice ribeye steaks for Christmas & grill those bad boys. Actually looking forward to Christmas for a change.
  21. The best time of my married life was when my wife was pregnant with our first born. The doctor put her on bed rest for the last 5 months of the pregnancy and all she did was lay in bed and sleep. She wanted nothing to do with me either so I was left alone. It was great, it was like being a bachelor again. Plus back then my fil bless his heart hooked me up with this illegal card & I got like 500 channels including every sports channel I could imagine & about 15 porn channels. I spent a lot of time down in my basement those 5 months with my good friends Jack Daniels, Buddy Weiser & Jim Beam. It was good times, enjoy! Your sick😂
  22. Sobering Statistics since 2001 Brady is second for QBS in wins at the Ralph/New Era Stadium, 2nd in td passes & 4th in starts. I am glad he is gone
  23. Your delusional. It has been a good run for you guys but the Pats reign of terror in the AFC East is over. They said on ESPN yesterday Brady saw the writing on the wall and that is why he had no intention of resigning with the Pats. They are a bad football team. With that being said I wouldn't be shocked if they beat us Sunday. Why do you have trust in BB when picking a high draft pick on a QB? What history gives you confidence in that?
  24. I think this COVID thing is really messing with White's head. If I remember correctly he was really close to opting out this year. It seems like he is shying away from contact. I am also convinced the Tenn game he told the coaches he wasn't comfortable playing due to the covid issues ten was having at the time. Just a thought, but he looks like a totally different player out there this year compared to years past.
