Is that Dareus after he no longer fit into a sailor cap?

I heard Mahommes gives the whole team gift cards to a bail bondsman. I think that is a thoughtful, and apt, gesture.

I think we all agree he should be welcome to stay in Buffalo. I’m just not sure if he can play CB for the Bills. Come for the game, stay for the wings!

50 years ago today - a world changing call was made.
Augie replied to BuffaloBill's topic in Off the Wall
I remember the first time I saw one other than a car version. We were at our son’s tee ball game and there was a VERY pregnant mom who had one, just in case. It stunned me on the spot because it was such a game changer. EDIT: It’s hard to think back and imagine when that was new and strange. Then, a bit later, I saw a guy walking around talking to himself at our tennis club. He was walking and talking and gesturing irritably with nobody else in sight. I wondered if I should look for help before I realized he had headphones to talk on the phone. Fast forward and my elementary school age grandson has one, and with it he has the knowledge of mankind in his pocket. What will we see in the next 50 years? I can’t even imagine, honestly. . -
If you have a passport, is Niagara-on-the-Lake worth the visit. I had a friend in FL who went to visit, and I had to admit I had never been there. He had very positive comments. .

It’s funny, I started out watching it a little in the beginning. I lost interest but loved the nature scenes, so I’d stop and watch just a bit once in a while when it was on. I’d just watch a few minutes of nature and wonder “how the hell has this happened with these people?” Every time! 😂 -
Would you have loved the associated tax/PSL/ST cost increases? It’s always been a balancing act, and we can’t have it both ways. I generally come to one early season home game, so it’s no big deal to me. One game is not a huge commitment, but multiply by a season and it’s real money. I want to be comfortable late in the season, but how much more am I willing to pay? How about everybody around me? We all have different thresholds. It’s a tricky balancing act.

Gee, that’s not the way I remember it at all. The Vikings have the most interesting looking stadium in the league to me. It’s the one I would most want to see. ATL does nothing for me, despite the “dome”. There are a few other interesting ones out there, but let’s not forget that they are just football stadiums. I’ll wait to see it done before ridiculing it. That seems reasonable IMO.

It’s obviously in the eye of the beholder, but I thought Tottenham was pretty cool. Part of that was the surrounding area, but I had no complaints within that stadium itself other than they could produce and sell beer at a stunningly slow rate. Who thought filling a cup from the bottom was a good idea? They sell beer with a hole in the bottom! They drip, so they have to pour them from the cup that got filled into a cup that had never had its bottom perforated. I have a 27 second video with 8 concessions people managing to sell about 4-5 beers to people in a line a mile long! 😡 Sorry, but I saw much of the 2nd quarter on the phone of some lady in line with me. At least now I can laugh about it. Rant over. I liked the stadium. I was in the bottom of the upper bowl. I should have gone to the top to see if I got vertigo. I hope the upper deck isn’t too treacherous. Go with your gut reaction, that is usually correct.

Well, you are. The rest of us don’t actually exist. 😊 . -
How far up in the 1st round could we move up with one of our 2nds?
Augie replied to bills6969's topic in The Stadium Wall
I think we stand pat as well, and if we DO move I could see going back a few spots like we did last year. I’m too lazy to look it up at the moment, but what would it take to get back into the 3rd round? -
Thursday, April 3? Even the tweet was on April 2…..I had to go back and look.

Thanksgiving happens on a Thursday EVERY YEAR. I don’t love Thursday games, but they are doable. The 25th of December can fall on any day of the week, and this is just one more stupid idea to make more money.

So, this is what I’m missing because I avoid ESPN? I can live without garbage like this.

Well, that was a hurtful thing to do. 😂
