  1. I freely admit I was not at the game. I went over the border to watch the game from a bar I think in ft Erie. The bar emptied at half time. no I did not leave. I was at the Ferguson Hail Mary game with my brother and friends. I didn’t want to go but others wanted to beat traffic. We exited the stadium in the loyt and you hear the roar. I heard it on my smallhandheld radio listening to van Miller
  2. Id love to get him. It would cost this years 1st, 2 2nds, and 1sts in 26 and 27
  3. some thoughts….I have not read the thread. the data source isn’t clear. Is it from alcohol sales locally? Liquor licenses? utah is home or anti-alcohol Mormons and they have one of the strictest in alcohol sales. Wisconsin has been the hq of a bunch of beer companies over the years Jazz name comes from the teams time in New Orleans. utah is high Mormon population which is ani alcohol.

Buffalo is in Erie county, Niagara Falls is in Niagara county and the creek the canal uses is the mouth of the canal. City of tonawanda ( where I grew up) and city of north tonawanda exist. They would be one city if it wasn’t for the county line. In mid July thry do canal fest from Sunday to following Sunday. The last weekrnd is a big arts and crafts festival and fireworks. The city of tonawsnda has a river front city park with old man rivers and Mississippi muds are restaurants and I e cream patrols.

I grew up in the north suburbs. Every local area has their own locally run pizza and wing shops. I return back to my home area around twice a yr. I’ll get pizza and wings from a few local area of the tonawandas. They aren’t in orchard park roast beef on weck. Andersons isca local chain restaurant that has this on the menu. Other restaitrants have it teds hot dogs— another thing I try to have when back in town. many neighborhoods have farmers markets. These usually happen on weekends, but some are other days. The area has many farms. when heading to Jamestown or Allegheny sp if you go local roads you may run across a horse buggy. There is a an Amish and Mennonite population on the bisons stadium. It’s the prototype to orioles stadium of Camden yards in summer months there is usually a festival going on.
  5. What am I missing? This student incident doesn’t appear to involve Dart or some other ole miss athlete….so why do sports shows even talk about this?
  6. This morning I got a text message from a friend who us working on the site He shared a picture of him and other members writing their names on the final beams I didnt realize the context until I saw the story. I'm not local.
  7. Gravestone in decay….
  8. They could draft him or trade up for that other QB Dart from Ole Miss
  9. he first chose Dominos over pizza in buffalo, now he goes to the Cheats….…..
  10. This was done at Ft Johnson ( previously ft Polk) in Louisiana
  11. It does have hotels but those are secondary hoteks and not the better ones and restaurants in downtown area
  12. They could had been a host for a World Cup game if Buffalo was generally larger where they could host things like final 4s, political conventions, college bowl game, large concerts then the events pay for the roof. Cleveland is larger where it has the hotel space to host these events ( but thus not being downtown/ disjoint from hotels will hurt)
  13. How exactly? Needle pushers might be easier to find…..
  14. in a slow point now between now and the drsft because , unlike hockey, you can draft players who can start from game 1 of 2025. post draft you see some player trades occur of those low cost on post draft contracts because of how teams drafted where somebody drafted higher and picked 2 DL making the player they drafted last year in mid trounds a bit redundant so a team might trade this player to someone else. then you have june buyouts to spread out cap space opening up some cap room.
  15. I understand women coming forwardhen someone might become well known….why now?
  16. True stars don’t usually hit free agency unless the player does not want to re-sign
  17. Name receivers only occur when their team makes the playoffs or gets a lot of national coverage or they were a high 1st round pick and had early success thr bills have more er divers who get get the rball so instead of having one get 7+ catches a game, it spreads out over many. why do these names get available in free agency? Outside if thst team sucks, it’s because the team views this receiver as replaceable
  18. It will be similar to 2024 what is this fascination with wanting to have a “ name” receiver?
  19. I’m fine having ties without OT then in winning PCT it’s a half win/ half loss. other option…both gets half win/ half loss then winner in OT gets a half win. Then winning pct will sort playoffs. Or follow soccer/ international hockey with 3 pts for reg win, 2 for ot win, 1 for OT loss, 0 fir reg loss
  20. When the sun hits your eye and you drop the pizza pie that’s Amari they won’t pay you bling but you want that big ring that's Amari
  21. Can’t see Da Forrest thru Da trees…..
  22. That’s what I want to see. How much is base vs bonuses.
  23. They came out in the same draft class. Both At Indy combine. They could have same agent. They likely played in some of the post season all star games. He is from arizona, Allen from Fresno. They both like to golf. Their probably us an NFLPA golf club that likely coordinates charity golf events where players attend.
