I have been listening in my commute home for several years. Have never heard Mike talk tennis. So, that complaint seems reasonable. They also do maybe 2 of those fun drafts per year during dead periods. So, you doubled down with that one.

There's lots of people in China too... Perhaps WGR should base their programming around them? You know... Lots of people and all that.

Put it this way - if there is any significant discussion tomorrow morning on tonight's NFL game - I'll put something else on. Could not care less what Buffalo radio has to say about a random out of market game.

So, you think the local market is more interested in Panthers/Broncos than Jack Eichel? Not so sure about that.

We request it every year. I'm pretty sure I asked hammer to set it up again. I'll grab charcoal if hammer doesn't have a stack of deserted bags in the shed.

So you are saying I didn't just stare at my phone, not smiling, not laughing and not wanting the skit to be over because of its general awfulness? If you say so... Kimmel's bits are infinitely better due to reasons I already stated. I watched 45 minutes of them straight tonight. Most of them were good, but the really funny ones were delivered by actors and comedians. The ones delivered by nba players were, in general, as awful as the Bills skit.

See, this is the type of absurdity that could have turned that turd into gold!

It works on Kimmel because they choose extreme, creative tweets but they are also read by actors. Many of them comedians themselves. So, they know how to deliver a line. When you get normal people to read mean tweets, it has the opposite effect. It is normally used to highlight what a bully and an ahole the tweeter is and to get us to look at ourselves as a society. Instead of laughing with the reader, we feel sympathy. So, tweets that aren't funny mixed with regular readers made an awful bit. Should have never left the video production room.

That was terrible. Truly terrible. Awkward at best, but not even remotely funny.

Welcome back... Hope all is well.

I'm restoring this so that the conversation can continue. All I ask is that you move past the circumstances regarding the thread locking and deletion. Thanks.

Honestly, I did not follow the discussion as it just doesn't interest me. But, as with most political discussions and with everyone's claim on the truth - apparently things got out of hand. "The mods" are not a monolithic entity. We are not "the borg" and we do not share one view. Every one of us is different and has different styles. Unfortunately, this can manifest itself as a certain level of unevenness when addressing issues on the forums - real and/or perceived. Complaints about this unevenness are probably justified, but what I do ask everyone to keep in mind is that I think most everyone here is a good person and any actions taken by the mods is generally taken in the spirit of trying to do the "right thing". Obviously, that's a subjective measure and not everyone will agree with the result on every intervention. I do ask disagreeable parties to put our discussions here into perspective and seek to deescalate situations, rather than make a situation more volatile. Public policy will not change based on our discussions, so opinions expressed should be taken with a grain of salt. I assure you - political opinions expressed here will have no measurable impact on your life. However, the friendships formed can/will impact you in a positive way. While we will discuss the issue offline and see how it can be handled better in the future, my general sense of situations like this are that they are tricky to handle. It's a political discussion, but taken place on the field and, for better or worse, dominating the conversation (while we all await the magical preseason game #4). I can understand why it was being discussed on the main board. I also understand that such a topic that mixes football and social issues can quickly leave the football behind. At that point, personal judgment comes into play and not everyone will agree with that judgment. I think one can make the case for leaving the topic on the main board or for eventually moving it to PPP (whether it be page 20 or page 72), but I don't think there is a "right" answer here. If anyone has a specific complaint, please send me a note. Otherwise, please let that water move along under the bridge. Thanks.

There goes the font I used for the banner.

I would say the run and shoot is more like it...

Hate to burst your bubble, but the salmon pants/shorts are almost as vilified as cargo shorts. Google "white boys in salmon shorts". It's hilarious.

Would have never expected to see Ric Flair, former fake wrestler, resident of North Carolina, to be rocking the muscle shirt with cargos. Shocking.

You would not be allowed in. It's a required uniform.

Probably should add "Guys who go to hot rod shows"...

They are pretty bad. Given the cast of characters who have come out in favor of them, I'm feeling pretty good about not owning any...

We have had my high school friend (who has his own catering business) make BBQ chicken and salt potatoes for us in the past and it was a big hit. Who would be up for that?

We did this with Widow Maker many years ago and it was a great time...
