KD in CA

They all laughed!!!

Aaaaaaannnnnd so much for that bandwagon. Hey Familia, why don't you give the Yankees your 'slide step'?

Wait.....is this Beane’s fault or Trump’s?

For anyone who's worked in a complex organization (at least one that functions competently), culture is always part of the strategy.

I love how "sign anyone who can help" on Sunday evening turns into "not him, Beane/McD sucks!!" by Wednesday.

I'm jumping on that bandwagon hard tonight! You mean the Mets could be run even worse than they are now?

Peter Drucker would disagree with the hordes of hot takes in this thread.

I'm a Bills fan, what are 'composed thoughts'?

Same here, but I am positive I'll be rooting for the winner in the NLCS.

Aaaaaand goodbye Cubs.

I don't get that song, I hate her period.

Nope; I saw the Bills version in CA.

But I don't wanna wait for the plan!!! I wanna be 7-9 NOOOOWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!! ?

What do you mean 'didn't work out'? He had almost exactly the same per-season stats in Buffalo as he did in NE. He was who Rico thought he was.

It might have worked if Shady was trying to get on the Supreme Court.

I remember banging that cute HR girl on the floor in my office.

I went to a Warriors playoff game last year.....and it was still boring. It was only barely worth the 45 minute drive to go for free and sit in a sky box w/ food, beer and some good guys to talk with; I'd probably turn it down if invited again.

Nope, those count as regular season. Go everyone except the Dodgers and Red Sox. And Cubs. And Braves. And Yankees. So basically I'm ok with a Brewers-A's World Series. Fortunately I'm from Buffalo so dealing with disappointment is second nature.

I have daughters....they couldn't care less.

We're way overdue for a Whitner over Ngata thread.

There is absolutely nothing worse than changing the rules of the game in OT. Well, except for Bill Simmons, who was last funny in 2004. I too would do away with OT entirely. Never had an issue with ties, never understood the visceral objection to them by some.

Agreed. The whole lame-duck Whaley thing was stupid. He should have been fired 15 minutes after the 2016 season ended. I don't blame McD either. You can't realistically expect a first time HC to put his team all in on a QB before the GM is even hired. What if the GM shows up and says he hated the pick?

Missing a wide open WR running down the sideline for the GW TD isn't on the QB? Uh....ok And WTF does that have to do with the price of tea in China?

As others have stated, helps to have a solid OL and pro bowlers at WR and TE. Mahones is clearly good but he wouldn't be doing this in Buffalo with this supporting cast. The jury is obviously still far out on Allen (and how he compares to Mahomes long term), but the point that we could have taken Mahomes and used a bunch of picks that we spent on Allen on other offensive talent is spot on. But that's the problem with having a lame duck GM, new coach, etc. The Bills were not in position in April 2017 to think through a good long term strategy for building the team.

Lighten up snowflake; you exhibit all the dramatics of a 12 year old girl. 'run off' the board......
