Miyagi-Do Karate

why have I never eaten Hawaiian fried rice? This is sheer brilliance. I started making this Hawaiian dish pretty recently and it is ridiculous: loco moco. Delectable beef patty on rice with lots of gravy and green onions and a fried egg on top.

Yes. I am already ashamed of my future self.

Tre Edmonds mega extension?

agreed. And totally agree re the Zimmer comp. I actually may have referred to Zimmer as Bannan before (though maybe because they have the same first name).

Bannan was found guilty. https://www.yahoo.com/sports/former-nfl-defensive-lineman-justin-040614903.html

I think I am just still operating under 1998 ticket prices. I feel like $60 is a solid deal!

haha— true. I was going to go, but tickets were like $300. But now they are like $150, and I’m still too cheap to pull the trigger. I have a mental block and feel like tickets shouldn’t be more than a $100.

Dumb question, but I assume they measure this based on licensed NFL apparel? In other words, they don’t count the thousands of jerseys that people buy off of DH Gate from China?

We all know how this will end. 31-29. Get ready for 4 dump offs by Brady and a GW FG.

Crazy that JPP is still so good and quick around the edge.

This regime has made it clear that they prioritize high character players. I am not sure there is a player in the league that has as long of a history of dirty play as Suh. I doubt the Bills even gave him a look for that reason.

Suh is about as anti-process as you can get. I suspect the Bills wouldn’t let him play on the team for free.

Antonio Williams for a 2nd rounder? McBeane?

TJ is back. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/09/08/t-j-watt-fully-participates-in-practice-for-first-time-this-year/

why do you say he is going under center more?

This could happen. But it is equally plausible that the Bills win this game by 4 TD’s. We get a lead, pressure Ben (who has lost all mobility) , take Harris out of the game, and pour it on. I think the odds are probably somewhere in the middle of both extremes, more towards what the betting line is— Bills win by about 7-10 points.

haha— yeah, why throw when you can just run right over him. (Sorry, I had to).

This new 9/11 docuseries on Netflix is really good. “Turning Point.” I am about 2 episodes in, and the footage, audio, photos, and interviews they splice together are Really fascinating from a historical storytelling point of view.

wha?!

Steelers’ fans always travel well, including apparently on Amazon too.

i started a thread on here a few years ago about this— there are a string of nightmarish Bills opening day losses. It’s brutal.

I used to do a dynasty auction league, with rules so complicated that it would make your head spin. At first, it was a nice change up to normal snake draft. But after a year or two, it was not a lot of fun. Turned less into fantasy football And more into the equivalent of playing the stock market. I would recommend trying an auction (preferably with a league of sophisticated players), but in the end, I much prefer a snake draft.

by the way, how do you like me starting this content-rich thread? I am following in your foot steps to try to become a Respectable veteran poster who the younger generation will admire— very similar to the real Mr. Miyagi. Gone are my days of posting bad quips and tacky memes, my friend.
