He is by far my favorite player now. I just got his jersey for tomorrow's game and next week's game. I was so ecstatic when we signed him. Green Bay never understood the value he offered during his time there. Plus, now that I live in northeast Iowa (you wanna talk about a place with nothing to do and we still manage to have fun all the time) it's even cooler he was a Hawkeye.

As a white guy married to a beautiful Thai, Indian, Hawaiian, Chinese, and Portuguese woman, I'll just say...

 

Well done Micah 

 

Five wives. Wow.  Good stamina.  

[LeGOATski]

What about his Buffalo wife?

[ClemsonBills]

I’m calling bull that she didn’t know his profession even after a few dates ?

I was offended.  He couldn't mention drinking?

 

 

Not as offended as I am at this though.  Jesus, Micah...who the hell wears those brown shoes with that tux? 

If you are looking at his shoes. I'm sorry to be the one to tell you but you've got other issues?

She seems very nice. Well done 23.

I met her last week at Hammer's Lot. She's become a regular there.

 

She takes part in the Ketchup ceremony. She was very cool and super sweet.

Buffalo is certainly 'different'. You cannot compare the two, unless you have a compartmentalized view of what is 'Ideal' (Cough!)

The difference is your calling someone ignorant just because they have a different opinion as you...which is by definition ignorant.

[COTC]

Yeah? Sure.  I’d like to know what she really thinks.

Miami Beach nightclubs notwithstanding, what is it that doesn't exist in Buffalo that fuels people's perception that there is nothing to do?

 

We could use a Korean restaurant in the South towns, but other than that I've never had a problem with finding something to do in my 17 years here.

 

I think it’s just the several months of no sun every year depressing people into not wanting to do things.

I think the truth lies somewhere in the middle. 

 

I lived in Boston for a while, and there’s 5 different events/activities/things going on for each of the 10 things you’re into every week. In Buffalo there are less options. Depth is a little lacking if you will. 

 

Ive lived a bunch of places. I love Buffalo, it’s always been home, and is now too. It definitely gets a bad rap, it’s not the worst place, it has a ton going for it, I dig it, but it’s also not the absolute best, like some homers like to say it is. 

 

I think "absolute best" is really an absolute opinion.

 

Does not make someone a homer to prefer WNY, or any specific area.

 

5 different events for 10 things every week sounds terrible to me. Terrible. I hate that the road I live on gets just moderate traffic, and driving to/through Orchard Park last weekend was one of the more stressful/frustrating things I will do all year.

 

Not trying to trash anything or anyone, but Boston or any big city can suck a big fat one. I have no interest in population centers, and a few hours in the cornfield with my dogs or dropping a line in the river beats the living crap out of shopping on broadway, seeing Hamilton, the Boston marathon, or whatever. 

 

My opinion of course, and Buffalo really isn't my favorite either (too many folks), my point being if someone says Buffalo is best they are not wrong. It's the best for them.

That's when I do the most- when the sun doesn't oppress me. Nothing beats a good snow day.

People say there's not much to do around here in VA, but you can find pretty much any scene you want in Richmond, VA. There's also a beach about an hour and a half away with VA Beach being a decent spot. It's not South Beach around here, it's not LA, it's not NO, or NYC, but nowhere is except those places. It just depends what you want in life with anywhere you are. If you want to rub elbows with the rich and famous then Buffalo isn't for you most likely, just like Richmond isn't for you. There are still people and plenty to get into though I'm sure. 

One thing you can say about both Buffalo and Richmond: plenty of fine restaurants.

[COTC]

Some things you just take for granted,

like living in San Diego California where the summer never ends, the women are beautiful and property values skyrocket faster than the stock market. 

 

Its paradise.  The grass IS greener

I know her and Micah fairly well.

Your impressions of her are exact. She’s a fantastic young woman and her husband is a wonderful man.

She loves the area. In fact many former professional sports athletes and management guys love it here as well.

There are a bunch of them living in the area after they quit their professions. Why?

 

Ive asked a few of them this question, but I already knew the answer.  Small town feel, small town residents, diverse culture with diverse entertainment, all with a substantially low cost compared  to other parts of the country. Value. 

People don’t bother them and treat them as just another regular guy. Getting from point A to point B is without stress.

They say it’s a great place to raise a family and the school systems and Hospitals in this area are excellent.

 

Ive been all over the world, lived in many cities, and this area(Buffalo) is much,much better than San Diego, Atlanta, Detroit, NYC and

St.louis.

I guess it would depend on your age. My nephew as a young man lived in Manhattan, he loved it,loved the night life and the activity of a big city. When he grew up he hated it,moved around the country and came to the same conclusion as I have.

This is a great place.

[BigDingus]

It's funny, I lived in (and still live near) Dallas for 15 years now, and as much as I enjoy it, I still loved the times I went to Buffalo. I constantly hound my wife about taking another trip, and really think I'd enjoy living there. 

But who knows, maybe it's one of those places I'll love visiting, but moving there I'd have a different opinion.

Thank you. I don’t live there but i would love to live there again if given that opportunity and where I do live is not too different. Everyone has different priorities when it comes to these decisions. 

[f0neguy]

I believe it was an interview with Jeremy Jacobs (Delaware North, Boston Bruins owner) from years ago where he said there's only one thing harder than getting someone to move to Buffalo.

 

The interviewer laughed and said what could that be?

 

Jacobs replied, getting them to move away.....

Good weather.  It can absolutely have an effect on every day activities depending on what you like to do.  

 

Being a huge sports fan, living on the east coast in general sucks.  Games ending too late is a big deal and an unfortunate way of life.  Sorry guy, west coast > east coast as far as weather and watching sports.  Ain’t no doubt.

 

I’m happy that I was raised there.  I love to go home to visit, yet I’d never live there again again unless I was offered an obscene amount of money and didn’t have to work again.

I left Buffalo @ 25 after grad school, but I always thought there was a ton of places to go after 10pm.

WNY native and I've lived in San Diego for over 30 years. There is no comparison between the 2..they are apples and oranges Literally.

 

WNY: Green, uncrowded driving most of the time (rush minute not hour)  humid in summer, Legendary Tailgates..Pegulas.

 

San Diego: dry desert. too many people...6 lane in each direction traffic gridlock, LA Chargers?? pfft.  Joke franchise they are dead to most true san diego fans #****deanspanos

 

I'm greedy they're both awesome cities in their own way But Team Ownership" Pegulas over Spanos' All Day.

I was there in the 80’s.  It was not paradise then and it’s still is not. 

 

Great weather? Yes

Beautiful women? Yes

Great Beaches? Yes. 

 

skyrocketing property values only help you if you already have a house.  It’s very hard to get anything decent for a young guy starting out on your own.  

 

Jobs are there but pay is low relative to the cost of living.   The public schools are crap.  California politics are crap.  Taxes are high. Illegal immigrants are a problem and a topic of debate and division.  

 

Crime is not too bad for California, but high enough to be in the top percentile of the State.  

 

I did the California dream back in the day.  After about five years I found out I actually like seasonal change and it’s healthy for me to have it.   Once the kids came the stability of a traditional lifestyle with family and the values I can relate to outweighed the benefits of Southern California.  

 

 

[The Avenger]

WNY's best asset is its people and sense of community - you're not going to find that in many places.

 

My parents ended up in Buffalo because my father got his PhD at UB and then found work locally, as did my mother. It was never their plan to stay in Buffalo, but guess what - it was a fantastic place to live especially if you want to raise a family and live affordably and they never left. The people and the community sealed the deal - they were all-in on Buffalo. Jim Kelly's story reminds me of my parents' story - someone who didn't really want to be in WNY ends up there and ends up loving it and being all-in on the place.

...LOL......when the Sabres wanted to re-sign Drury, his wife threatened him......Ralph Wilson in desperation mode offered Cowher $10 mil a year and his late wife said no way would she live in Buffalo......

 

This is the first I ever heard this Drury story. 

[leonbus23]

It's just more difficult to do things in Buffalo because it's cold most of the year. It's just tougher day to day living for a host of reasons. San Diego sucks for other reasons, but everyday is nice and open to do stuff in Diego.

I was advocating getting him when he became a FA. Green Bay has been my favorite NFC team for a long time.

I'm living in VA Beach now.  The locals say there is nothing to do.  I moved here from Utica, I am much happier here as far as things to do.  I wouldnt have wanted to grow up here though.  WNY and CNY are way better places for families.

Yeah, certain areas are rough. It's like that in Richmond too. It's getting to be like that almost anywhere now though.

As someone who isn’t from Buffalo. I have to say I love visiting up there. I have a second property a little past windham in a small town, and there is truly nothing to do there. That’s where me, and my family hunt. The closest shopping mall is in Albany. I currently live on Long Island 20 minutes from the Hamptons and it’s nothing special.
