  1. The handwashers have nothing to worry about. 100% of COVID cases have been linked to people who routinely do not wash their hands.
  2. 1. Its not nearly beaten enough if it can be re-mounted, in any sense of the word. Definitely not by TBD standards. 2. This is completely Roy and Gugny's fault.
  3. Billl does point out a glaring weakness in the rule book. What if a player takes a knee but many years later, on their death bed, wishes to advance the ball? When is a play truly dead? If the return man takes a knee and then changes his mind and decides to run as you have brilliantly laid out, that would be too late since he has already "taken a knee and made no attempt to advance the ball." This scenario is distinctly different than a ball carrier who takes off running, slips and inadvertently has a knee touch the ground while clearly attempting to advance the ball. Comparison to the catch rule is a very poor analogy. The definition of a catch is and has been incredibly subjective. What is a football move? When is possession established? What is control? What qualifies as survives the ground? This subjectivity has plagued the game and driven fans crazy. Luckily, the rules governing dead balls on kickoffs are as clear as can be. Or at least they were until "common sense" was introduced and "logic" prevailed.
  4. I would caveat: THIS specific play was not an automatic review because the head official changed the correct ruling on the field after a 5 minute conference with the backup officials, which is completely unprecedented. And if this play were to have been reviewed the league office would have absolutely have been forced to judge per written rules rather than opine on the intent of the runner. Nope, nothing to see here!!!
  5. Does the fact that the head official changed his ruling on the play after a 5 minute sideline meeting with backup officials instead of allowing video review figure this mess out make anyone feel better about how this went down? What transpired on this play is completely unprecedented. The natural question is: why didn't they let this go to video review? Its common officiating practice on scoring plays and turnovers to put the whistles away and let the sequence play out followed by video review.
  6. Does anyone know how COVID-19 compares to the common cold or flu? Has this analysis been done yet?
  7. Completely agree that another year in the CHL won't do anything for his game but if he isn't a sure thing to be our 2C or 3C in camp then I don't think we will see him with the Sabres next year. Having him be a healthy scratch also won't help his game much either. The option to assign him to the AHL would be clutch. I think its 50/50 at this point.
  8. Sabres played a solid 40 minutes but the panic was real in the 3rd period after the unfortunate bounce off Risto's skate.
  9. Ten! Anyone who says otherwise simply has no clue about the cap and trajectories and talent!
  10. A few did. There was no software migration or team coaching decision to shut down the board. Fact is BBMB read over 100 on the FleaMoulds scale for 10 consecutive weeks and per its bylaws, disbanded.
  11. ESPN should not be focusing on one big splash given how desperately under staffed they are. They need to bring in experts and lots of them. The average ESPN panel is 4.25 former players and journalists as it is!!!! These guys are spread too thin!!! I need 15 guys MINIMUM shouting over each other to get their hot takes and superficial analyses heard. I should NOT have to hear opinions from the same guy twice!! One man, no matter how tough to listen to, is not going to swing the needle. ESPN's only hope to right this ship is to bring in 35-40 Booger McFarlands and a handful of Dennis Millers.
  12. London Fletcher was a really good linebacker. Poz was a good linebacker. The common refrain of "only makes tackles 5 years downfield!" is for idiots.
  13. CNN is desperately peddling a narrative the American people are believing that Biden is a winner and he is surging. The reality is and has been that outside of the Bernie zealots none the Dems don't think Sanders can win. Klobuchar, Bloomberg, and Buttigieg talked about it for weeks. They endorsed "not Sanders" and tonight people are poring in votes for "please not Sanders".
  14. I'm also shocked that the couple that engaged in a months long, highly public, twitter fight which covered Jordan's infidelity in detail just can't seem to settle things in house and let professionals sort it out.
  15. Hes 28 years old and has played for 3 teams. If he doesn't know how it works by now then I don't think hes meant to get it.
  16. So long, Frank. Thats the business of the NFL. Its a next oldest running back up kind of league. Always has been, always will be. Bring on Sproles and AP!
  17. I'd say it far more closely resembles what Beane and McDermott did. Completely turned over the roster, traded all the malcontents, voluntarily put the team in cap hell, brought in their own guys, and traded draft picks for assets. Much like during the early days of McBeane we hear that the cap hell we are in was inevitable, the sins of past regime. Etc. The big difference is Botts guys and Botts picks haven't panned out. If Josh Allen didn't look like he could be the man and our defense wasn't playing lights out it would be the same story with the Bills.
  18. They had better toss in Chark in that deal to BEFORE they sign him to a big contract only to trade him for peanuts 2 years later.
  19. Hes a Rochester guy too. I find most of his recipes are eerily similar to SeriousEats.com especially now that hes doing Basics with Babish. Although pretty much every YouTube.com personality is ripping off SeriousEats for monetary gain. By the way, if you're looking for the best information on cooking techniques or good recipes, check out SeriousEats.com.
  20. Happy to help. I always get confused with tutors, tudors, and two doors as well. You can imagine just how confusing it was for me when they insisted I get after school help in History because I thought a small coupe had beheaded his 7 wives.
