I clicked the laugh button because of the spot on Stripes meme. I would have clicked it 100x if possible. Based on the meme and the sentence you typed other buttons I would have clicked if multiple buttons were allowed: Lombardi button Thumbs up button Beer mug button Checkmark button Not bad for a Pats fan button And probably more. You summed up the whole thread nicely without being verbose. Well done.

All bad but all there as fallout from Murray. But he may still have surrounded him with a disjointed roster of malcontents and a psychotic goalie.

Yes he is far better than Eichole but never underestimate how bad a GM Tim Murray was. Perhaps the worst in the history of North American professional sports.

How many people waited it line at the wake, made it up to the family and said: Meh, terrible outcome. ?

I heard on XM that Carter did none of the above and actually lied to police…..or is being accused of such. I have not seen that written yet though.

He’ll be like a son to Andy Reid.

You mean like cornerbacks?

Minor details in the overall scheme. Honestly, why should any other school be allowed to have a team when they are all hopelessly doomed to an infinity of inferiority? It’s a joke, but I guess it must be allowed to play out until they are all extinguished by the singularity.

Charleston Southern certainly can’t hold a candle to Chattanooga, but I digress. Why bother discussing any non SEC team? Why are they even allowed to exist? They’re as useless as cornerbacks. Until all teams are absorbed into the SEC and eventually into the mother ship itself, college football will remain needlessly asymmetrical and subject to the laws of space and time. But don’t worry, the singularity is inevitable.

We are all going through it together at different paces. If it isn’t Alabama, it will be one day.

Updated version: Does a cocaine bear $&*( in the woods?

Jealousy? I think you’re mistaken. I’m just ahead of the curve. While you see that the SEC is the center of the galaxy known as college football, your criticism of the other conferences is misguided. Think of them as if they were star clusters from the outermost edges to the areas near the SEC center. Once you view it that way it will become clear. Although it takes time, these clusters will inexorably move closer to and become part of, the center known as the SEC. What you fail to realize for now is that once this happens, there is further consolidation to take place. Why put up with schools inferior to the true center…..the black hole if you will…..Alabama? Everything one day must be absorbed so there is only one unified galaxy that is Alabama. It is pointless to be jealous, angry, argumentative or any other emotion that resists the undeniable fact that sooner or later, everything that exists in the galaxy of college football will be sucked into Alabama. Even the disdain and snobbery Alabama fans harbor for all else will become pointless. All of those wasted emotions will simply disappear along with everything else into the singularity. Spacetime will cease to exist in the inevitable oneness that is the Crimson Tide. The singularity. As is true with the astronomical galaxies, there are going to be many violent collisions and much strife along the way, but make no mistake, Sagittarius A* and Alabama cannot be denied. Hopefully for you, maybe the torment and death that takes place as college football collapses in upon itself will disproportionately impact defensive backs. They deserve it anyway. Still, that remains to be seen. I make no predictions about the strength of the grand and glorious Alabama football program when it has to do battle with the real galaxy, but as long as Saban is calling the shots, Sagittarius A* better be prepared.

The Citadel, Uriah State, La-Monroe and Austin Peay scare the heck out of Dabo.

IKF too. I get a little bored sometimes with the lopsided teams talk. Can the Yanks beat the Astros? Etc. plenty of time for that in September. I’m looking at teams that are up and coming or will exceed expectations. I can see the white Sox making a comeback. They were snake bit last year. My “over” team is the Royals. They’ll lose but have a lot of talent and youth.

The non elbowing call ought to draw a fine. What a joke. I’m fine with an OTL getting a point if a regulation win gets 3, but as it stands, an overtime game is worth more total pints…..2+1…..than a regulation game. That’s dumb.

You implied that Araiza had made the team and that the Bills consider the matter resolved once Haack had been cut. This was demonstrably false.

Irrespective of whether Araiza involvement in any incident, if the Bills cut Haack all it it says is Araiza>Haack. It says nothing about Araiza’s status other than he was a better option than Haack. The Bills could have thought everything was buttoned up, they could have thought it was probable to work itself out or they could have been waiting it out. If they had unceremoniously dumped Araiza due to allegations, you’d have taken the opposite stance and told us all how unprofessional the Bills had acted. In reality, Beane approached this entire saga in a highly professional manner up to and including the moment he said it was more important for Araiza to focus on his personal life than on football. He did not absolve or blame Araiza in any way. It was not his place. Sure, goofs like Tim Graham, cited as direct quotes things that were not anything resembling a direct quote in an effort to make Beane look bad. In the end, there was nothing there which is why this all went away from the standpoint of the Bills bearing some sort of blame. Even Tim Graham has shut up about it….but Pats fans gonna Pats fan I guess. Haack stunk. That is clear. It is very plausible, even likely, that the Bills knew he would not make their team under any circumstances whether Araiza was there or not and they gave him a chance to connect elsewhere……which is exactly what he did. Stuff like that happens many times on just about every team every year, but THIS time it was proof that the Bills screwed up. Gotcha.

All of this was covered in the original thread and it is very clear that the Bills management did pretty well under the circumstances regarding Araiza. Beane acted in the manner a professional would despite the trolling behavior and revisionist tactics of people like Tim Graham. Now here you are months later making the assertion that Haack’s departure was a direct referendum on Araiza. Haack’s departure was a referendum on Haack. This was all reviewed ad infinitum in the original thread. I guess the Bills winning the division three years in a row and your team arguably looking like the cellar dweller moving forward leaves you with this crap for “material”, but it’s not a good look dude.

Ah, the famous 92/93 line where the value of draft picks falls off a cliff.

ROR with more production in one period as a visitor than his entire reign of mopiness as a Sabre. 3rd leading cause of this decade behind only Eichole American Murray.

You’ll get Moore from KC in round one.

Any updates on this?

All in regulation, too.

It’s a good analogy unfortunately. Seems like the youngsters got their big deals and hit cruise mode. Great to see such character after Eichel departed. WTF? Why can every other team, including two that didn’t even exist when this disaster started, make things happen but we stall every time. It’s one thing to lose these games and I think LA is a good team but Calgary has blown chunks all year and they didn’t just beat us, they both curb stomped us as if we’re a team already running for the end of season bus. Thanks for the effort boys.
