Reminds me of TKO...freaking Michael Vick

Oh totally get it and you have to hope there aren't a bunch of people trying to do the same thing, though being a legit bills fan should give you a huge leg up... all that said, I'm not saying I would do it, knowing the anxiety of thinking about it would be a bummer, but my guess is there are people sitting on multiple extra tickets that will be stuck with them at the gate and especially if you're willing to watch the game at a London pub, you're potentially getting a cheap ticket day of.

They're going to be much cheaper day of walking into the stadium, people will have extras they are looking to get rid of... if you need a bunch together that might be tougher, but single tickets for sure and I bet pairs will be easily available day of for well below what they are asking for now...

You were saying the value of RB contracts hadn't gone gone down, but then showed an example where Bell had a larger contract offer than Barkley six years later after the cap had gone up...

So you're saying Bell got offered $14m a year like 6 years ago, before the cap jumped a bunch, which is more than what Barkely was offered...I don't think you were trying to make Barkley's point for him were you? Edit: obviously only the guaranteed money really matters, and I don't think those numbers are the guaranteed amount.

I very much want to be in the running for longest average post length... I'm so confident in my place near the top, I'm not even worried about what this post will do to that average

I think that was before Spencer Brown was able to win a home run derby... because of how much turning is required to swing a bat that hard and the weight transfer ability... he didn't look like he would have been able to do that past year following the back surgery.

There are a lot of people who murder people right...so if someone murders someone does that make it normal because other people have done it? Or is it just "normal" because you have done it?

Looks like they did a great job improving the angles defenders take...

Man, I can't even imagine how it is for everyone that was on the field...seeing that clip of Tre White especially brought back feelings of fear and helplessness for me and I just watched it on tv...being there and having that be one of your teammates had to be crazy traumatic.

Their stuff is so cool and there is a sub reddit for that also with that same name.

When the Dan LeBatard show was local only (before the went to ESPN) they would absolutely destroy them every now and then, and it's well deserved... I'm pretty sure they would do that when they were still on the same radio station, but when the dolphins broadcast switched to a different station they would say it like it is!

Dude...listen...automated machines eliminated jobs...it is cheaper to pay significantly fewer people than it is to pay for increased ink costs. Please account for the decreased workforce costs as a matter of fewer employees required to work the manufacturing line.

What makes up more of the cost...ink or the let's just say hypothetically the 10 skilled union manufacturing jobs that were eliminated through advancements in automation (I'm guessing the actual number of jobs eliminated because they were able to automate things was way way higher per shift). You're quoting short term inflation over the last couple of years without accounting for all the cost savings that happened 15-20 years ago. Plus they had entrie newsrooms eliminated because they just use the AP for 80% of the newspaper now. Ink prices, lol

Btw, I have long said that I think by far the best comp to Josh Allen is Andrew Luck...

Agree, but there have been some hits he's taken on the run where his legs have been bent in awkward angles and thankfully he's hopped right up...all of them on unnecessary hits either trying to get a few extra yards after breaking big runs, or the thing he really freaking needs to stop doing is holding the ball going to the sideline a split second longer trying to get a roughing call...he has said he does that on purpose and he has fallen and hit his head pretty hard after making those plays...I don't think any single person is saying he needs to stop scrambling...he needs to stop trying to show up defenders and get on highlight reals...he's going to get seriously hurt doing that and it's 90% of the time unnecessary...was it the lions game that had a great example of that? Also, his in the pocket injuries haven't been when he's hitting his first read...they've happened when he's trying to extend plays instead of understanding he needs to just throw it away instead of trying to win every single play...a random 3rd down in the first quarter of a tied game is not worth the risk reward of a potential awkward hit... he's an actual person who is going to deal with the actual physical impacts of this play style for the rest of his life...obviously he's an nfl football player, but he's playing recklessly and it's really dangerous and it's a numbers game, eventually something will happen and not everything is fixable. Anyone saying he should just keep doing it because it's entertaining...gross

Come on, they're buying the papers, saddling them with debt, liquidating the business and selling the super high value real-estate that a lot of these news papers had acquired in the heart of cities, then turning around and using the loses to offset their taxes on other investments...this isn't Hurst or Orson Well's character Citizen Cane or more recently Sinclair media consolidating local news to control messaging. This is Bain Capital type private equity crap that is highly ethically questionable stuff...granted I don't think print papers were long for this world, but these companies buying newspapers are not trying to keep them going, for the most part. If I'm wrong and I misread stuff when I looked into this in the past, I'm happy to change my opinion, but there are real consequences in local government to not have reporters looking around at stuff to keep people honest.

I was up in Rochester last hockey season and listened to a game on the radio and felt the same way...that said, I'm pretty sure the sabres radio broadcast is the same as the TV broadcast...is that even possible?

I lived in south Florida for eight years...the dolphins radio broadcast is so embarrassingly bad...so so so bad The first 27 seconds of this is basically what listening to an entire game is like...and they basically never tell you the score, where the ball is or how much time is left...I'd been in the car listening to them for what felt like almost 5-10 minutes before you'd get a score or time update...just brutal!

I think I'm in the minority here, but I'm not really a fan of Redzone...it's cuts too much and I think it would be better if they stuck with a few plays from a game in a row, unless something actually interesting is happening somewhere else. Kind of how CBS used to have to single stream for March madness and would jump from game to game, but actually let you see parts of the game...I'm not talking about 15 minute segments per game like March madness, but give me a minute or two per game...it just quick cuts way too much, and especially for someone with ADHD, ironically it is too much sensory input (I might have undiagnosed ASD too though). I know I'm in the minority and people love red zone how it is.

I think it moved... Couldn't help the seinfeld reference

I think it would be helpful if you sorted the graph so the largest numbers are on the left and down to the smallest...maybe lower the opacity a bit on the colors, the colors are jumping out a bit more and I'm focusing on them more than what you are trying to say...very cool though (genuinely!) and I love the dark background! I'll read the rest of the thread now

I mean they do a great job keeping things on house. That's a good point, that defensive perspective is super important!...now if I remember correctly, Dabol was a defensive coach as well. As you raised, for someone who is so ahead of the curve going for it on 4th down, interesting on why would there be tension... So let's pretend there actually was tension. What could have caused it? Allen's development and usage maybe? Actually, if I had to guess, McD would have wanted more balance in terms of run pass, or maybe he wanted more play action, but dorsey had less...there are some options though

I was talking about McDs Carolina teams which you had referenced. Yes, I am more so reinforcing what I think had been happening and I think McD evaluated and identified the issue and is going to be adjusting this year as a result. When Alexander was here they actually did used to dictate and disguise where pressure came from. I don't think Klein will be in the running for a middle linebacker spot. I think they brought him back for MLB insurance, but more that Lorenzo Alexander role and teaching the young lbs how to be pros. I think Klein (if he makes the team) would be an on ball linebacker dropping into coverage he's actually good at (I'm sure there are spots on the field he can actually defend like the flat...and him and Rapp will have some type of rotation.

You mean how there was reported friction between Dabol and McD? Also, I'm not complaining at all dude, chill a bit. I think it's showing growth and self scouting by McD...I view it as a positive, got it
