Why is Tyrod Taylor not more revered in the Bills fan base?
Augie replied to ChronicAndKnuckles's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yeah, but I thought the Doc sticking a needle in his lung was a bit much in terms of punishment. We all know he could be frustrating, but as I recall he bet on himself to come to the Bills, taking less money for a shot at starting. I tend to like guys who bet on themselves and then let their play speak for itself. The guy made about $70 Million, so I can’t feel too bad for him. You clearly have not seen my Chris Kelsey shrine. 🤷♂️ -
I don’t have time to look now, so I’ll take your word for it, though it sounds like it’s getting into subjective territory. Our son tore his ACL and it took a while for him to be himself in sports, but he fully recovered. More than a decade later it’s giving him some issues, but he played at 100% eventually. I think that is the case with most people. It’s certainly not like the old days where a torn ACL was a career killer, like Robert James. Still, saying only 28.5% are still in the league 3 years later still sounds like a leading statement, and maybe even misleading. What percentage of players without ACL surgery are still in the league 3 years later. How different is that number? .
-
This seems flawed from the beginning. It measures how many players play for 3 years post ACL surgery, while ignoring that the average career is only about 3.5 years. WHY are they out of the league? It may be knee related, or guys just don’t last that long. You would expect a low percentage.

It also demonstrates that men are only needed….for so long. 😋

The tires are getting angry, at this point. And the price becomes more reasonable….. 😋 -
It’s the new Kale!!!

See? Wings are diet food! And…… they come with celery! This should be the next weight loss craze! Then you bring out Ranch dip, and purge.

That reminds me….I played in a 6 foot and under basketball league in college. They measured you and everything. Decades later I was at the doctor and they measured me as over 6 feet….and I thought back to that day I had such poor posture for a brief period. EDIT: I never had 30, or even anything close to 25. My job, like the others, was to get the rebound (I was the “big guy”!), and get the ball to Brent. My roommate was a freak who was good at everything. QB in high school, all-state in baseball, golf team in college, played with the guys on the college hoops team by invitation, etc. He took up tennis after college, and he’s a teaching pro now in retirement. One of those guys. We all knew our roll. .

I almost thought he was going to trade a Coke for a jersey in the tunnel, there! Nice story @Royale with Cheese, I don’t remember that.

I get the smallest order which is usually 5 or 6 wings. I usually have one or two leftover. I went to lunch with a buddy at a pizza place. I usually just get a slice and I’m good. He wanted to try the wings, so I suggested the smallest order, I’d be good with one or two, max. Fast forward: we ordered 20, I had two and he ate the rest….plus his pizza. I couldn’t have done that on a bet!

I’m sure your shuttles will be first class! 😋

Please tell us, what sports have you played in your life, and at what level? We should start there. Goofing around in a high school scrimmage is no big deal, but sent a little message. Back off, he’s a good young kid. That was gentle, for the average person. .

RIP. Far too young.

I can’t believe the camo pants and Hawaiian shirt thing never took off. It’s mystifying! Did you wear that outfit addressing the student body as Class Valedictorian?

Forget parking! Follow the Green Bay/Lambeau route and put signs in the yard that say “Park And Pee - $30.” The closer you get to the stadium the more the price goes up. Park in the yard and driveway, and either use the bathroom inside the house or they set up porta-potties. If @Draconator is that close to Hammer’s, he could offer a Premium Potty Package and it would pay for him to go to games for the rest of his life.

The complete OPPOSITE of the white hot love light of last year works for me. Give them some us against the world fire down below.

I suspect they are getting tired of your constant adoration!

I have a friend who was going thru some stuff and seeing a therapist. After a while he said something like “look, this is great, but it’s NOT my parents! Can we move on?” He said that she later “fired” him. 😂

I had never heard of it until opening this, so I’m guess that’s a bonus for me!
-
Do you think he really needs help getting dressed? Or did he just want to share with everyone in a dedicated thread that he’s been asked to speak at an event in Vegas? He admits to already having a standard set of suits, so it sounds like he’s got the necessary clothes unless he’s going more for a Liberace or Elton look for, you know….Vegas? It makes me wonder what the topic is. I’m guessing he’s not conducting a fashion seminar! It could be a LAMP symposium?
-
I didn’t say that either. You said we as parents couldn’t see what was happening. Wrong again. For the record, I had no problem with him shutting down a bully who was picking on a freshman in high school. Zero. It’s not like he beat him up or something significant. He protected a younger kid about his brother’s age. He didn’t start it. What’s wrong with standing up for someone who can’t stand up for themselves? But we addressed some underlying issues, which are none of your business.
-
What makes you think we didn’t see it? Once again speaking out with more agenda than knowledge. We knew exactly what we were seeing, and we took action. .

To each their own. We were in Paris and Italy a month ago and the wife had a long list of things to see. I had had enough of museums and cathedrals, but she was determined to see the statue of David. We had seen a replica somewhere (the Louvre?) and since I couldn’t tell the difference, I figured I had that covered. While she saw museums and cathedrals in Florence, I saw FLORENCE! We both had a blast! I’ll be talking my more casual approach to being a tourist, avoiding long lines wherever possible. One of the things I most enjoyed was a dinner cruise on the Seine. Since I’ll be traveling alone, that might not be ideal, but is there something more like a booze cruise on the Thames you might recommend? I like seeing cities from the water for a different perspective.

The beef on weck was particularly disappointing at the Anchor Bar by the KSU campus. And yeah, the wings were just…..wings. Duff’s in Newnan had a great beef on weck, and better wings.

Of that, we are quite confident.
