The Tisch family are big donors to Duke. The Mannings are close with Dave Cutcliffe, the Duke football coach. I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s some idiot Archie Manning angle to this pick as well.
Does a conversation get started about him on the most popular Bills message board if all he gives is I.n.f.o.r.m.a.t.i.o.n?
Sober analysis and common sense does not drive clicks and eyeballs.
[shrugs] I like logging in to see what's available, but rarely ever move. We have a bunch of good friends that sit around is, old and new, so we're pretty firmly planted in 127 for a while.
I did move down one row to the seats directly in front of ours last year so we'd be next to some friends instead of diagonal.
Between this and that Goober Eli Manning’s take on Eagle fans, a cynic would think there’s some NFL PR shenanigans afoot, during this quiet period between the combine and draft, the same week MLB opens up.
Not that I would be such a cynic, nosiree.
Good luck with the auction and best wishes to your family. If the benefit were in ROC, I’d love to attend. Hopefully you can get some of the Cuse-area TBDers to drive up the bids!
I still love a great line of his from a press conference, I believe when he was with us, he said something like: “I’ve picked the only career in the world where a degree from Harvard is viewed as a negative thing.”
Fitz rules.
