CA OC Bills Fan

Overpriced? In my neighborhood a house that size that backs to a busy street and needs significant updating is easily twice that. But that's So Cal. I don't see how 1st time buyers could ever do it.

What's wrong with the Museum of Play? It's quite good for little kids. My son took his first steps there (almost 23 years ago).

Cook has much less wear on his body than typical 26 year old backs. He wasn't high volume in college or as a rookie. The last 2 years were much higher but still not bell cow level.

Never been to Vegas' new stadium but have been to 3 games at SOFI (and a Rolling Stones concert). It's a very sterile environment.

Neither Vegas or LA have retractable roofs.

Lol. I just read an article on TWSN titled "New York Jets Signing Stephon Diggs." From the headline it sounded like fact and I came here because normally someone posts on TSW before I see it elsewhere. Not seeing it mentioned, I went back and actually read the article. It was total conjecture and was just saying it would be a great move.

Being outspoken isn't the same as being a cancer, none of the players you mentioned were ever a cancer.

No way! The Bills are a better team without him just like the Vikings were. And just like every team (except the Bills) that Terrell Owens was on were better off without him. Cancers are cancerous regardless of their talent.

Was thinking the same. 5 of 15 available CBs are ex Bills.

Just on here to make note that if any team actually thought it started at noon EST, they will be off by an hour. Yesterday, daylight savings time started and we pushed the clocks ahead an hour. The so-called legal tampering period started at noon EDT which would actually be 11 AM EST. So, any GM too stupid to know the difference is behind by an hour! But, more to the point, Former, as others have pointed out, it starts at noon EDT, not noon local time. And, 9 AM PDT is not so early that GMs are unwilling to be talking to agents at that time of the day.

That's basically what Joe Marino has been saying for the past week. He must take a pay cut at least equivalent to the $8.3 million (I may not have remembered exactly correct, but I'm sure I'm close) cap relief we'd get by cutting him. Marino says even then he's fine either way, would kind of prefer to just cut him and get younger.

It's irrelevant that you'd forgive him. Unless you're not a Bills fan,why would you want to weaken the Bills? Getting rid of Diggs was a great example of addiction by subtraction. Talented cancers are still cancerous and ultimately make the team worse.

Except the problem is he's not an all around back at all. All around backs rush, catch, and block. Thurman Thomas frequently was called the best all around back over Barry Sanders and Emmitt Smith because he was a much better blocker (and a better receiver). Cook CAN'T block.

I was at the game on my regular seat, 30 yd line opposite end from this play. At first I thought it was a TD and yelled "Oh fxxx !". By then everyone was celebrating and I felt like an axx.

I have a work leadership conference at a resort in San Juan Puerto Rico starting today. Reception starts at 5 est. which i assume will be done enough by game time. I'll be at a pool bar watching. I've already had 4 beers during this 1st game so soon I'll need to start pacing myself.

It is 7 games out of approximately 1000 games, but that means 0.7%, not 0.007%. But, is that really the way to look at it? Although accurate that knowing you're watching a Bills game there's only a 7/960 (I assumed your game count is close enough) chance of it being a SB appearance clinching game, the other games during the pre-season, post-season, and regular season would never have an opportunity to be a game to go to the SB. Best case is there's one chance per year to be in that game. So, the way I'd look at is 7 years out of 64 or a 10.9% chance that this is a year we're in the conference finals. Regardless, just win this game and let's be in the Super Bowl! Go Bills!

I actually had meant to content about air quality. For those who don't see it you maybe can't imagine how bad it gets. With fires 50 miles away it is very noticeable. Youth sports get canceled. When not bad enough for canceling, when my son was a teenager he'd get asthma attacks if he tried playing during fires.

I live in south Orange County which is a bit closer to LA than to San Diego. No fires near my house now but the winds are really bad from what my wife is telling me (I'm in Alabama for work this week and going from here to Rochester to go to the game on Sunday). My wife told me that my Bills flag was blown off of the flag pole rod it's on and the pole is completely bent from the winds. I asked if she at least was able to retrieve my flag, she did. But, she added, "Before you ask, I'm NOT going to get on a ladder and try to take care of your flag in these winds." See picture below. That's the only damage we have.

Where are you finding practice squad elevations? I've checked the Bills app and website, ESPN, NFL.com, and did a google search and not finding it. The last two weeks I couldn't find them either.

I think the stat was points per drive, 3.12 ppd is 2nd to 2008 Patriots who had something like 3.89.

Love it (Bills converts that is, not the YouTube)! I mentioned in the post you quoted that my daughter's boyfriend is from Chicago and is a lifelong Bears fan. I took him (as well as my daughter, wife, and son) to the NE playoff game a couple of years ago. He wanted Bills gear this year for Christmas! Not so sure I'd call him a convert, but with the Bears being sooo bad for so long and since my family are all Bills fans, he's on his way. Or, he's just trying to butter me up.

Thanks for sharing, I enjoyed getting this history! I'd like to hear if others agree with something I recently told my daughter's boyfriend. He's grew up in Chicago and is a Bears fan. He's actually turning into a bit of a Bills fan ever since I took them to the playoff game against NE a couple years ago. I told him that we have the huge reputation of crazy tailgates (i think most non-Bills fans know about jumping through tables but not so much about Pinto Ron, etc.) mostly from the drought years. Now that the Bills are good again, it's more about the game and less usable jumping. It's like what else could we do for all those years but drink and do crazy shxx. Now the games actually matter! Am I wrong?

The Bills original colors copied Detroit's because Ralph had been a minority owner of the Lions. Fortunately they only used them for i think one season?

For those that didn't know our didn't remember, Pitts was assistant head coach under Levy. 1n 1995 Levy had prostate cancer and Pitts was the head coach for 3 games. I remembered the above but had completely forgotten that he coached under Knox, left, and came back to the Bills under Stevenson. He stayed with the Bills until he passed away during the off-season in 1998. RIP

In the regular season you can only call up a player 3 times, not 4. After that, they'd need to be waived so any team could try to put them on their practice squad.
