HIT BY SPIKES

Nah..Lucy is used to it over the almost 8 years of her life with me. Tiny, the Great Dane, is more jumpy. Chasnet, the Rescue, is pure evil and thus a Seahawks fan

So did I. If Pegula offered that Sean $50M for 5 years, we would have had him. What that Sean did with Drew Brees is nothing compared to what he could do with Josh Allen. I suspect to get that Sean it may have meant bye bye to Beane as well.

Tailgating at my desk. Not much of a crowd -- a Basset Hound, a Great Dane and a Rescue -- but they don't talk much during the game so they have that going for them.

Pumped for this game!!! My Dietician told me yesterday that I need to get my fibre intake up significantly so I got my 10 quart crockpot loaded with Pork and Beans. 4 kinds of beans. Canadian Bacon A Pork Belly I smoked up, sliced and fried with the bacon and 6 cut dinner sized chicken "wieniers" Fresh Onions, celery, tomatoes, herbs, etc. from the gardens. Smells like Heaven already and I have it on low for overnight simmering. Tomorrow I finish off the 30 litre keg of a craft double IPA I have been nursing for a month so I can get another keg craft IPA on Monday. So game time tomorrow -- open all of the windows in the ManCave and turn the ceiling fan onto the highest setting and fart away. I hope the Bills don't fart it up tomorrow.

Why do you feel that way?

Can I ask you what you like about Pegula?

Defining "The Process" would only result in more accountability of the regime. Why would they want to do that?

I agree. Does Terry Pegula have the stomach for this change given the circumstances?

That is what you read, understood and interpreted from my post? OK. Under advisement, I shall discontinue this engagement with you under fear of moderation in response to what I would like to say now.

Circumstantial Evidence? If it doesn't fit, you must acquit.

Let's talk about how that would happen. The Pegulas hired HC Sean McCollapsy BEFORE they hired GM Beane. Some argue that it was McClappy that chose and brought in Beane. So can we realistically expect Beane to fire the HC hired by the Owners on the recommendation of the HC? I doubt it. Only the Pegulas can be behind the effort to fire Sean and by pressuring the GM to do so and the GM may refuse given the above. That is what is called in the Organization Behavioural World dysfunctional. Terry knows where to find gas to frack. He never made his billions in a business where the only resource is people. I have argued since Terry Pegula bought the team that he needs an experienced NFL Executive to report to him and the GM should report to that individual. Until that happens, this clown show of management accountability will sadly continue. I will leave it to others to point to those rare circumstances where a NFL team has won it all with a worse head coach than McDermott or a much poorer early round drafter and evalulator of OL talent than Beane or more dysfunctional management structure than the Bills currently have. Hey, at least the Sabres and Bills are still in Buffalo eh?

So you figure Josh Allen is THE problem?

Well said. Do you see any accountability for Beane? How about for Terry Pegula who between the Sabres and Bills seems to shy away from hiring strong experienced sought after GM candidates OR in hiring an experienced NFL Executive that would report to Terry however the GM would report to the NFL Executive?

Delegates to who? To the General Manager without an experienced NFL Executive in between reporting wise? That is what Jerry does (act as the General Manager without an experienced NFL Executive in between) however there is a big difference -- Jerry Jones knows football and Terry Pegula knows where to frack.

"Hey...Look at that squirrel." Yes, Jerry Jones is not perfect. Not even close. Do you agree that he is more willing to do what it takes to win it all than Terry Pegula?

You are welcome. Because I don't know how and I was too busy drinking beer heavily in an attempt to self-sooth away the pain from last night's game.

True. After that last play in OT where the Jets scored a TD the New Jersey stadium crew did quickly put the lights out.

Makes sense. We don't want the Bills to ultra-processed like a hot dog or a frozen meal. https://www.prevention.com/food-nutrition/a42790639/what-are-ultra-processed-foods/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=arb_ga_pre_md_pmx_ca_urlx_20300231468&gclid=Cj0KCQjwmICoBhDxARIsABXkXlJFSYhO9TzG0GdCKdy5X2OiEGY6mmio3_pjYTX2kbbGGpmPGQUWoYcaAhJeEALw_wcB Can I have a bunch from your personal supply so I can get comfortably numb for Bills games?

The first process or the second process?

As much as Jerry Jones is too directly hands on and he is just a wart of a human being, his passion to win can never be questioned. Would Jerry Jones tolerate the big game losses the Bills have taken over the past few years without doing something?

I always attempt to show some restraint not to over react to just one game negatively or positively however the pattern is pretty obvious now. 13 seconds Bengals Play-offs' earlier this year Last night (name to follow) We find ways to lose. I appreciate to the fans who have lived through the dark ages post-Jimbo have an admiration for this current Bills regime for getting us back into the play-offs on a regular basis, securing a true franchise QB and bringing Buffalo Proud back to the Buffalo Bills fandom. I get that. "Saviours" may be too highly a label to bestow upon this regime given Terry Pegula already took that title for first buying the Buffalo Sabres and then the Buffalo Bills and securing their futures in Buffalo. I also get that. However: (1) Does Sean McDermott have what it takes to win the biggest games? (2) Sean McDermott is said to be a defensive minded coach and has been there for a number of years banging the table for an one sided investment of high draft picks, salary cap and free agency pursuits into the defensive side of the ball yet our defence and special teams continue to collapse in pivotal times of key games. Why? (3) Is Beane's inability to build an average NFL OL to give our franchise QB an extra 1/4 second to scan the field before making a decision to pass, run or throw the ball away or to allow us to run the ball successfully when we have a 10 point lead a fundamental obstacle to this regimes ability to finally deliver us a Buffalo Bills Super Bowl Championship? (4) Do you still TRUST THE PROCESSTM?

TRUE. Low and slow. I won't monitor the temperature though....too much like baking and that s--tuff is dictated by nazis.

Wings grilled and on bar. Decided to make some Chicken Wing Soup since the wife unfroze one of my large homemade chicken broths. The key is to find old mature chickens for your chicken broth.

Who is cooking up what for tonight's game? I have already begun tailgating at home in between yard work and other errands. Starting with ice cold Red Stripes and some heated in the mini crockpot warmer thingy salsa and nacho chips on the Man Cave bar. Have 5 lbs of fresh jumbo chicken wings that I have been marinating in a pretty traditional Buffalo Chicken Wing Rub since Friday Morning. Not sure if I will just use the NG Grill or fire up The Big Green Egg. I don't see using the electric smoker or wood burning pizza oven on them. How about you guys?
