I Watched SB 28 In Full Last Night, Thoughts & Analysis
Brandon replied to corta765's topic in The Stadium Wall
Basically, yes. Once that happened, Thomas was no longer a factor and Dallas was able to wear down the Bills OL just that much more quickly with their superior DL depth and were able to pressure Jim Kelly into mistakes after he'd played a solid first half. It was a perfect example of a game won and lost in the trenches. Dallas was simply better up front on both sides of the ball. -
What is better, no guns, or more guns?
Brandon replied to Security's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I'd assume there's some provision in there that's politically problematic for the opposition party. You give the bill a name that everyone should support, then hide a provision in there that you know the other side can't vote for. And then you scream from the rooftops that the opponents are the incarnation of evil for voting down your bill, when you were forcing them to eat a **** sandwich if they did. That's usually how this little game works, especially a few months before a midterm. Skimming over the bill, I don't see it, but its probably there. Given that, I'd have to hear the reasoning of some who voted against before passing judgement. -
Climate Change And Heat Waves
Brandon replied to Trump_is_Mentally_fit's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Like anything else, I'd assume it ultimately comes down to money. Cheap junk needs to be replaced more often, so the consumers buy more. Nuclear has been regulated to the point where its almost impossible to build a new plant. But electric vehicles are new on the mass market. There's still large amounts of financial gain to be made, especially at twice the cost or more of a conventional vehicle. You just need to convince the public that the enviro-apocalypse will occur if they don't make the switch. Thats not to say there arent some real environmental issues underpinning it, but most of the nuts leading the charge at the policy and business level stand to make a fortune off it. -
Come on, man. That's just Joe being Joe.

Former Leader of Japan Shinzo Abe Shot
Brandon replied to ChiGoose's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Sad news, indeed. He was a good, reliable ally of the US while he was in office. -
Agreed. The left is going to go absolutely nuts over this. Any gains they might have made (which I believe are far less than some expect) are going to evaporate in the aftermath of the temper tantrum that's about to ensue.

What is better, no guns, or more guns?
Brandon replied to Security's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I agree with you, but I'd argue that the only definition of 'militia' in US law found in the Militia Acts could likely be construed to include all law-abiding adults anyway. The 'unorganized' class of militia includes all males of draft age, but since you can't deny a Constitutional right on the basis of age or sex, if that definition were applied to 2A, it would probably have to include all adults, with the exception of those falling under prohibitions for felonies, mental illness, etc. https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?path=/prelim@title10/subtitleA/part1/chapter12&edition=prelim Then again, there are about 30 states that would immediately add such a legal definition of 'militia' that includes all law-abiding adults, anyway, if this ever became an issue. -

I'm glad to see the Supreme Court get that one right. -
It seems to me that NFL isn't any different than any other business. If an employee's behavior, actions or opinions potentially offend the customers, the business may just decide that the negatives outweigh the positives and that the employee isn't worth keeping around, even if they're otherwise good at their job.

NFL Draft 2022 Fourth to Seventh Round Discussion Thread
Brandon replied to UKBillFan's topic in The Stadium Wall
I'm thinking Jojo Domann here. The Bills like undersized LBs that can cover, plus depth and special teams are always a factor in late picks. A possible wildcard, just because they can afford to take a flyer on a developmental prospect...QB Carson Strong. -

I'll trust their judgment on this one. If there's one thing this staff has proven, it's that they know how to scout and coach up defensive backs. -

Dohnovan West is available? I think I change my guess for this one. -

I expect DB, LB or WR primarily as ST picks. -

I don't mind taking one in R6 or 7. Just don't give up two picks for one. Thankfully, they picked the guy I wanted here, Khalil Shakir. -

I hope we didn't trade up for a punter... -

I'm hoping for Khalil Shakir, but I'm expecting someone none of us have ever heard of. -
NFL Draft 2022 Fourth to Seventh Round Discussion Thread
Brandon replied to UKBillFan's topic in The Stadium Wall
With all these WRs going earlier, it may just be that most teams are done at WR and there's more supply through the mid rounds than demand. That could be good for the Bills if they want to take a WR in R5 or trade up at some point. -
Agreed. I would not be surprised at all if they burn a late pick on a more traditional RB to challenge Moss and be a short yardage type.

Rd 2, Pick 63 (31): RB James Cook, Georgia
Brandon replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
He could be an every down player if used more like a WR (and that's probably how they'll use him), but I wouldn't expect him to be a 15-20 carry per game kind of guy. -
Rd 2, Pick 63 (31): RB James Cook, Georgia
Brandon replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
I wouldn't be totally shocked to see them take another one later today to serve primarily as a short yardage and goal line specialist, assuming that Moss is on the way out. -

Brandon replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
That's exactly how I think the Bills will use him. -
Rd 2, Pick 63 (31): RB James Cook, Georgia
Brandon replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
Note also that the guy he burned on that play was Christian Harris, who went about a dozen picks after Cook. Cook just ran right by him and actually had to slow up and wait on the ball. I'd also add that this play isn't a fluke, either. He had one just like it against Michigan in the Orange Bowl. -
Rd 2, Pick 63 (31): RB James Cook, Georgia
Brandon replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
He's not a RB in the traditional sense. He's more of a RB/WR hybrid. He's going to be deadly on third downs and long yardage situations.
