  1. Depends what you are watching and in what league. Lots of games don't have extra time (overtime) or penalty kicks. All games have added injury time, but 5 minutes of that is a lot. I love how a soccer game is entertainment for a reasonable amount of time, and I know what that amount of time is going into it. And the top clubs spend more on players than anyone in the NFL does, for sure, and yet they manage to get by with zero commercials during game play. What a miracle. Leave it to the USA to F the whole thing up in the pursuit of cash. Greed is our national pastime.
  2. No, the OP just isn't that bright and didn't express his thought for the thread very well in words. You see a lot of that sort of thing around here.
  3. Jones is currently lawyering up as it were. This will be a big deal in the NFL and something you are going to hear so much about in the days ahead, you will be praying for a reprieve from it all in short order.
  4. Dumping the coach will be item of business #1 when the season ends, I think. And there will be a long way to go from there.
  5. Perhaps you should change the weapon of choice from season tickets to firearms. You can probably take over the stadium that way. Of course, it will be the last thing you do as a free man, for the rest of your life, but you seem dedicated.
  6. Actually the overwhelming majority of commercial aviators receive pilot licenses from civil aviation schools, not the military.
  7. If duplicate thread starters received shocks, then had their computers explode, the living population of TBD would be like 14 after a month or so.
  8. The older I get the more relieved I am when the holiday season is over. Christmas was a magical time for me as a child; that ended a long time ago.
  9. Um. Stop buying new phones? Use the old one that was "perfectly fine" ???
  10. 4 and 0 is the best this franchise has done in 22 years? That's embarrassing.
  11. The games are so disjointed with commercials they become difficult to watch. The officiating is horrible and slows the games down further, the announcing is horrendous, and there are not enough good QBs to go around and make me say "this should be a good matchup, I think I'll watch!" if it is just a neutral game involving 2 teams other than the Bills. I couldn't care less about the CTE or national anthem stuff. It's the other stuff, which is nothing new... The overall package of what is entailed in watching an NFL game has enough negatives that I'd rather do something else, depending on the matchup. It has to be what I think will be a really good game to tune in. ALSO! The games are way, way too long now. I shouldn't have to lose an entire day to enjoy 2 games...but that is a 1pm to 7:30pm affair these days. Soccer really is the beautiful game. 90 minute games, no matter what, and no commercials! NFL games can almost be annoying to watch in comparison.
  12. Benjamin has a real baby face. And what's up with Thurman's beard!? He's look a bit ratty these days.
  13. "Back in February, Moschino debuted a trash inspired collection..." Made me laugh out loud!
  14. For what it is worth, I was comforted watching the video, knowing that the young woman causing the fuss is obviously dumb as dirt, and young. She has a long, tough road ahead of her.
  15. They'll let you be a pilot too! It's called flight school, and it's not reserved for only the wealthy. But yes, there is a risk associated with small private aircraft.
  16. Bills game on TV in my market! First game of the year for me, not counting TNF of course. So nice not to have to deal with bad online feeds cutting out all the time during the game.
  17. 23 pages of detailed, hashed-out debate on whether or not the QB is any good. As though a well articulated argument in this thread will improve Tyrod's game! He is what he is and will be replaced as soon as possible by the current Bills regime.
  18. Yes, I think we are going to come back to reality. Another big factor in our wins is the turnover ratio...and that is not sustainable. Not at that level anyway. We still have some wins left in us on this schedule, but not a ton. I still say one week at a time. This New Orleans game is going to be tough and a real challenge.
  19. I agree about the 4-12 "crowd" thing. I had us winning 6 games, as did most all observers of football prior to the season who are not Bills fans. So far we've won 5 and a number of our wins, we now know, came against teams having bad seasons. Atlanta and Denver both for example are not the same achievements we thought at the time. One game at a time.
