Yeah, characters come and go. It would be pretty boring if the only character was Phil “Tandy” Miller. lol You should pick it back up.

Interesting point! I only eat ice cream with a plastic spoon unless I have no other alternative. It just tastes better.

Yeah, it was a typo. You had paper straws back in the 1930’s when you were in elementary school?? Wow...how progressive!!

Has anyone watched this show on Hulu? I am so addicted right now. Currently in season 3. Absolutely hilarious. https://m.imdb.com/title/tt3230454/?utm_source=pikicast&utm_medium=landing&utm_campaign=contents&referer=pikicast

Local restaurant now only uses paper straws. They are coated in wax, and work just as well as the paper ones.

Haha. Nice one, man.

I don’t pay any attention to nat’l NFL media. Darnold, just like Josh Allen, needs experience. Both have promise, IMO.

My Mom.

Amen, brotha. I don’t know if he’ll be good, but a traffic cone would be just a good as Groy.

Sounds like we’ll see Bodine at C this week.

LOUD NOISES!!

Hmmm...is that the lead singer? I can see how they would be a one hit wonder.

Who?

Yeah, because every successful QB in NFL history has completely aced their first start. Get real.

I fart in your general direction. EJ was a “great guy“ but he was not a passionate leader. Jury is still out, but Josh has shown flashes of that fiery leadership thing. Don’t piss on our parade. We all know that Allen is still a work in progress, but I choose to believe in the kid until I’m convinced he’s not “the guy.” Embrace the positive, brah. It’s going to be a looooooong season regardless.

YEAH

With three 2019 first round picks as the cherry on the sundae.

Sorry. With the lunacy around here lately, my sarcasm meter needs to be recalibrated. Cheers.

Did you not watch the Bills in 2017? Was a pretty solid contributor at DB. Played in 15 games, started 7....52 tackles and 7 passes defended. That Leonard Johnson?

...and Leonard Johnson is still a FA. Just sayin.

...but you did not reference the 2018 draft in your OP, did you? You referenced FA moves and trades. I feel good about the 2018 draft right now. I don’t feel so great about what they did in FA, but I don’t really think it’s that big of a deal. I don’t expect this team to compete in 2018. Again, wake me up if Beane flubs free agency in 2019 with 80+ million in cap space. Then I’ll be as pissed as you are right now.

With regard to the bigger picture...does it really matter? Wake me up when they bungle the draft and FA in 2019 when it really matters.

Step 1: Get the team out of our salary cap mess. Check. Step 2: Acquire your franchise QB. Check, but TBD. Drafting a QB in the top 10 is a step in the right direction. Step 3: Through the draft and FA, fortify the “trenches” and bolster the skill position players. This will happen in 2019. Seems like the rebuild is happening as scheduled. I think making the playoffs last year surprised even Beane and McD, and I think the fan base got a false sense that we would be ready to compete this year. I believe in what Beane and McDermott are doing.

Glad the storm didn’t impact you, and I agree that the media coverage of the storm was “over hyped” in terms of the potential for high winds. Especially as the storm grew closer and they know it was going to be a cat 1/tropical storm. Many people were affected profoundly, however, regardless of the media phenominalization. My Uncle, for example, is in remission for prostate cancer and is not healthy enough to work. He evacuated, but his home was destroyed when a large tree fell on top of it. He is going to collect a whopping 30K in homeowner’s insurance. Not enough to buy a new home. He doesn’t know what he is going to do.

Was your first post a typo? If so, I suggest you fix it. Although it seems like you doubled down on the subsequent post. If I am wrong, I apologize. Edit: I will say that the trail of breadcrumbs you left is kind of racisty.
