  1. The only thing from college that follows you your whole life is your transcript. Not good to h ave F's there.
  2. I was a season ticket holder that year. I got a lot of money back on the games not played. The first game back against Miami was so bad, I wished I didn't have seasons. One week of practice, and the game was sloppy like little league, penalities were many on both teams. they were not ready to play, and the money was to important to keep the NFL from fleecing the fans with a sub par product. I still feel cheated today.
  3. Actually 12 of them in Minn. they didn't all burn down I am thinking...but all are closed I think. Target HQ is Minneapolis btw.
  4. simple reason for a no vote: I pay to see the football game. I pay to be entertained. I do not pay to be lectured to about any political belief of any brand. So, I am being expected to adopt a specific view based on kneeling players and coaches beliefs? I do not value their view in the stadium forum, they are entitled to have to views and express them on their time. but, as Billy Joel says in the song..."NOT ON MY TIME" Do your politicking when not in uniform and when I am not forced to be there because I like to watch football. I am not saying there are not problems these movements should impact.....I am saying, I don't like being subjected in an entertainment venue. TAKE IT SOMEWHERE ELSE!
  5. Buffalo apparently decided to make their riot control unit voluntary. All these guys are still Buffalo police officers. the combination of factors mentioned above probabily summarize why all of them quit. No legal cover, good enough reason to no longer participate. I wonder who gave the order for 59 riot gear clad officers to clear Niagara square. And, I wonder what the activist wanted walking up the officers.? I guess we will find out at trial. But, I am guessing the truth will not see the light of day here. Scape goating may occur...I hate to see it be the two officers. Media said "they walked right by the fallen demonstrator"...well, yes, I saw the video. I also saw them try to stop, and the supervisor instruct them to go on as he called for medical help. Looked like a book action....clear the square and the supervisor handles the wrinkles in the plan. And Josh, it would have been better to dodge this issue, you don't know how this will play out. I know one of the cops families, they are good people, and I feel for them as much as for the demonstrator, who may well get a couple of cop scalps to brag about to his cohort.
  6. I saw Young beat the Bills at the Ralph as a rookie w the Oilers. He did it with his legs. His later tryout w the Bills ended in preseason as he would not run the O, called what he wanted. Yeh, carzy.
  7. Well, Tyrod could run for sure, but Allen is the only one who can knock a DB out of the game by taking him head on. Saw that year 1, and don't want to see it again. But, when Josh gets loose in the open field, he is more like a TE than a running back, and just as hard to bring down.
  8. Yes, some of the time. But, the threat of Josh busting up the gut makes the D play certain ways. Just need to capitalize on that adjustment. Cut Joshes carries in that situation in half would be good though.
  9. I don't like the adjustable. Fitted is right for me...I will pay more, but its hard to find for me. I have a large head and many times I find none.....so I insist on trying on before buying. No online for me unless I have one already from that source.
  10. OJ was great in Buffalo. His troubles were much later. Leave him on the wall, not worth the effort and the bad feelings to remove.
  11. I got a look at the new Vegas stadium under construction last June. $6 Billion dollars, and located very near to down town. The locals were scratching their heads a little at the cost, but funded by big money investors as stated above. Another fear of the locals was that the Raiders' gangster mafia following will come from Oakland and ruin the Vegas city image for those who come in for the game supporting the visiting team. If going to the game, plan on a taxi, not Uber, and taxi's are the superior ride near the Strip in Vegas. (less cost and more available, Uber pickups are harder to find imho based on my week at WSOP)
  12. With the shoulder problems, Cam may be done.
  13. Kaep and Belicheck seems like bad chemistry to me. So, that's a don't sign argument. And, Kaep was lousy in 2016 when we saw him at New Era. However, I view the Pats as QB talent light and I think there will be another signing or two even to provide alternatives. Likely not Kaep though. Maybe a practice squad guy....like Davis Webb after the Bills cut him, say. And, that would give t he Bills playbook to the Pats, although the Bills don't play the Pats until later in the season.
  14. Dennison was a clunker. Daboll was year 2. Everybody has to iterate some to get a good mix.
  15. Was any football discused?
  16. Its a tough call because these are the same guys who kept the guy from Pitt and started him a few times. Lets hope they can see whats going on here this time. (Peterman)
  17. Not Jarious Byrd for sure. I had to look at Wikepedia to see who he was........
  18. Has Gilmore recovered from his lack of desire to hit on running plays? He was a wuss the last couple of years here......Any consideration of that fault in this ranking?
  19. If hee developes instincts and learns to plug the run, he will be all Pro. Right now, he can chase them down with the best, but, Chris Spielman like run plugger he is not. (yes, I remember Spielman)
  20. with the potential of no fans at games this year and the $5Billion loss of revenue for the league, I wonder about the cap situation going forward. One year deals are going to abound, with the cap , perhaps, going down next year. If it can go up, it can go down. If you got signed , you were smart or lucky (Poyer Spain come to mind) TV bucks for the NFL are big, but , $5 Billion + is a big hole in the revenue stream.
  21. Yes, he came from Wyoming.....not the SEC and didn't face the strongest competition in college. He has almost 2 seasons under his belt now as a pro...and, imho, is still on the learning curve. His head is right, and I think the stability of the coaching staff and his O line is a big factor. It is also true those folks also will improve this year...Daboll and company, and the O line as well. Adding Diggs and a better 2d running back will also help.( although Gore was a real pro for many games much to my surprise based on his age.)
  22. In Japan, they use the parking lots for shopping malls as drive in theaters after the malls close. Also works imho.
  23. It would mean he has earned it. I could live with that......
  24. That would make his price drop? likely not.... Yes, but I also am looking for his former safety instincts to kick in and get a few picks......he is worth watching for various factors. He is, of course, a fitness freak, and when right is what we want out there.
  25. Allen needs to improve again this year. But, so far, the improvement curve is encouraging. My bet is he gets better. Franchise QB, maybe not next year, but, still going to be headed that way imho.
