I see no reason to outright cut him if his injury carries into the regular season. He'd be a great candidate for PUP and they could decide to settle or activate him later down the stretch. Not sure how guaranteed money would play in here, but it couldn't be too much. Now if he is back healthy before the season, the may the best make the team

So I called DTV about 212-1 "Edmond" told me that this is currently a temporary channel, that has no dates/times attached to it. If you receive 212, you should get 212-1. For those of you that are in-market for Bills games, I asked if he could guarantee that we'd receive the Bills game via this channel during preseason and regular season (currently cannot get CBS due to Nexstar blackout). He could not do this, but instead is sending us a 'free' local channel receiver that we can hook up to our current service in order to receive CBS to bypass the blackout. If it works, I should be good for the season. Regardless, I will call back to complain about the service the new receiver provides, to see if I can weasel out a good Sunday Ticket deal.

So far, so good. My first dog seemed apprehensive at first, despite the pups high energy and desire to play. Day two we saw a warm up, with some solid play. Number two is learning the ropes (where to sit, basic training, routines) and she follows our oldest everywhere. Think this will be a good thing since we enjoy how our oldest behaves. Fingers crossed

OT - GateHouse Media buys Gannett

My programs in the guide show in two colors: white or gray. The white generally indicates I receive the channel, while gray means it isn't part of our packaged deal. The question remains: despite being able to access the channel (currently white), will I receive the broadcast since I'm a local customer?

Bills Training Camp Day 10 (8/5)
EmotionallyUnstable replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He's been as advertised according to many, many reports. He's made some flashy plays and has worked in with the one's with McCoy and Gore -
Bills Training Camp Day 10 (8/5)

Agreed. It isn't worth the 1 or 2 series Allen may get that day. Plenty of TC and preseason left for that with lower risk of reinjury -

Cody Ford takes 1st reps at RG
EmotionallyUnstable replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It's totally possible, injuries aside, a reason for this move is that they want Ford immersed in the scheme, learning what the guard he potentially will play next to thinks, does, feels, etc. Agreed. In the Embedded series, you clearly see Beane view him as a Taxe when Carolina moves up...they wouldn't abandon it this quickly imo -
AFC or NFC QBs?
EmotionallyUnstable replied to EmotionallyUnstable's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Why is it so difficult to imagine regression from a quarterback? You think that level of play is sustainable? I'm not arguing with your assessment that he has a tremendous first year. But it still was a single season and that doesn't necessary grant you similar status to Tom Brady. He has lots to prove -
AFC or NFC QBs?
EmotionallyUnstable replied to EmotionallyUnstable's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Trying to iron it down into many specific categories gets even trickier. Are you going off of the QBs current abilities? Wentz is equal in skill to Dak? Mahomes had one, albeit FANTASTIC year, but is elite? I still think Goff, trubisky, Mahomes, etc are still as unknown as, say, Allen. You can project their career path based on a small sample size but the Law of Large Numners tells us it's not a great prOjextion. Regardless of your classifications, I'll still take the unproven AFC QBs than NFC -
Which conference do you think has stronger QB play? Like many have said, the tides are changing. With that in mind, it is certainly interesting to look at the long term projection for AFC/NFC QBs. Note: For this process, I’m looking at a players career and situation as a whole, including past, present and future. https://www.ourlads.com/nfldepthcharts/depthchartpos/QB AFC- Untouchables: Brady The Greats: Ben, Luck, Rivers, It is what it is: Carr, Dalton, Flacco, Mariota, Foles Up and Coming: Allen, Darnold, Mayfield, Mahomes, Rosen, Jackson, Watson Conference Summary: 4 upper echelon QBs, a hand full of veteran guys who stare mediocrity down the barrel, and 7 young guns, some of which have the potential to be greats. NFC- Untouchables: Brees, Rogers The Greats: Eli, Russell, Newton It is what it is: Ryan, Stafford, Cousins, Winston, Prescott, Garoppolo Up and coming: Wentz, Haskins, Trubisky, Murray, Goff Conference Summary: 5 upper echelon QBs, 3 of which are on their way out the door. 6 that I could care less for. 5 up and coming, young players that the jury is still out on. Findings and Thoughts: The AFC has the brighter group of young, up and coming players IMO. Mahomes leads the wAy with his stellar breakout year. Allen, Darnold, Mayfield and Watson have all shown potential to be game changers and carry a team. Rosen and Jackson round out the class, carrying potential, but in a less than ideal situation for both. Though this group is collectively less experienced and developed than the NFC, I think they hold the torch. The NFC young guns, lead by MVP hopeful Wentz, has a pocket of more established players with some complete unknowns. Wentz, despite his MVP caliber play at times, cannot stay healthy. Goff and Trubisky have both taken huge strides in the right direction. How much of that improvement was schematic (McVay) or feeding off of a fantastic defense? The rookies I have little hope for. I think they’re positioned in sub-par situations (specifically, Haskins) and are in for a troubling couple of years. In 10 years from now, how many of those AFC or NFC guys will still be around, sitting on top of the "Untouchable" or "Great" categories? So what say you? Do you disagree with my assessments of current and projected careers? Do you feel similarly or differently to my view of the AFC QBs?

Josh Allen Fantasy Value
EmotionallyUnstable replied to atomicpwrd's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I have a league with 10 friends and each year the new league champion can propose new rules that have to be voted for by 6 of 10 owners to invoke (point increase, bench, IDP, etc). My one ####### of a friend, who talks so much trash and undoubtedly always finishes poorly, swears he will bring the auction to our league. These past two years, league winners have brought auction to a vote just to piss him off, with final votes ending 9 to 1 in consecutive years. Maybe next year. -
Josh Allen Fantasy Value
EmotionallyUnstable replied to atomicpwrd's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Late round flier, at best. Depending on the format (I'm in a few this year), Allen will likely float between someone's bench and the waiver wire. -
The Boss is real interested in a great Pyrenees- poodle female mix that is currently with a local foster family. I dog walk/sit/board in the summers, so he has had many overnight visitors and guests. They never have issues, but he definitely gets along better with some than others. On one hand he plays non-stop and couldn't seem more happy. On the other, certain dogs he will simply coexhist with, which is not my intended result.

About 3 years ago, my wife and I adopted a 50 lb beagle/Sheppard mix who has worked out wonderfully. Everything from sleeping to walking, eating, watching TV and playtime have been great. I was apprehensive at the time, having just moved into a new home, knowing all the work and time we wanted to put into it. Despite those feelings, my dog has been a fantastic addition to our family. He is easy going, blends with our schedule and feeds off our steady routine. Having just watched another dog this past week, we saw how great it could be for our dog to have another canine pal to play with. Specifically speaking, we wondered how the permanent addition of another dog would improve his quality of life while we are both at work (normal 8 hour days alone). Again, I'm weary of a change, as I've grown to love the routine, situation and set up we currently have. Am I being selfish? Should I cave and give the okay and hope for the best? Should I stand Pat and not jeapordize the success we've had from this adoption? What say you? Anyone adopt a second pup after a successful first? Thoughts?

Sabres parking can be simple or a nightmare. For those who don't mind walking, you can find pretty cheap or even free parking and hoof it to the stadium. If you want to be closer, you are forsaken to the congested crowd of 18 thousand plus all trying to go the same way on a single street. A DT standium with the current infastructure is not practical IMO.

Idk if this has been covered, but I've seen a lot about the rebirth of the city in this thread. Despite all the growth in business and renovations we see at face value, it is important to note that the City of Buffalo is grossly behind budget. In fact, the past few school years they have had to borrow for the Buffalo Public School accounts just to make their payments/bills. So I ask, with a clear deficit and Mayor Brown refusing to raise taxes, how exactly is this stadium being paid for?
