  1. If you do get to the Falls, The Maid of the Mist is a very memorable experience. If you are on the Canadian side, you are just 20-30 minutes south of Niagara on the Lake which we visited last week for the first time. It’s a charming little town where the Niagara River meets Lake Ontario. That was a nice and easy side trip for us.
  2. Passer rating does not tell you who is clutch (a real MVP), and who is more likely to choke in the big moment.
  3. My preference is the multi focal lens so I can go without any glasses for reading. What scares me is I tried multi focal contacts and hated them. They just never got comfortable for me from a vision standpoint. It was simple enough to say the trial box isn’t good for me. What if I have surgery and have the same level of dissatisfaction? They’re not “wrong”, but they don’t do well for “me”. Each brain seems to process this stuff a bit differently. I have countless questions and I’m interested in your situation and results. Did you ever try multi focal contacts? How was that for you? EDIT: My current solution with my contacts is to give up something on distance so I can read without cheaters. I’ve had better distance before, but I’ve also had cheaters hiding everywhere I went. .
  4. I think he’s due about $36 Mil next year with none of it guaranteed, so it seems a safe bet that he won’t be collecting that.
  5. I had to look it up. He had 16 catches for 195 yards, and that is not nothin’.
  6. He would be wise to keep the return policy limited to about 48 hours.
  7. Did she and Bill ever get married? Strangely, I heard that driving home about 5 minutes ago, then see this. 🤷‍♂️
  8. This is the kind of stuff that has led me to look into the ignore feature. Ed Oliver played GREAT. We have some fans that are so miserable that it seeps into my consciousness and I’m not going to let that affect my enjoyment of the Bills. It’s not personal towards you specifically, but there is a group of folks here who spread negativity in a way that I want no part of. NO, that does not mean I’m only looking for the Pollyanna positives. People who are too extreme one way or the other is not something I want to spend a lot of time with, in sports or anything else. A more balanced approach is healthier for me. To each their own.
  9. I don’t think too many people doubt that he can still play. But it is fair to doubt how long he can do it. Shouldn’t we be due to beat the odds in a good way?
  10. Pinky oath, what else? I actually had to update my Global Entry stuff at the airport today. That digital ID is “relatively” new, and getting very good and much more widely available. I hate to say more, lest I trigger someone. I have no idea what my grandkids will see. (That’s what old people say, right?)
  11. I’m watching the replay now and realizing just how much havoc he was personally causing out there. If he can be our Chris Jones difference maker like this I’m excited to see the rest of the season. The replay is also making me realize how many of those guys are fairly young. Let’s hope they can work the kinks out, because they gave up 40 in a jiffy!
  12. There’s a reason I’ll wear team gear, but not jerseys.
  13. I just checked, it’s not me.
  14. True, especially if you’ve witnessed those characters. I apologize for any bad dreams I may have caused, but the cost of therapy is on you.
  15. Oh, come on now and be serious. Playing in a Super Bowl and being the head coach is like being a baggage handler at the airport who does such a good job they make him the pilot. I’ve been to a SB. I’d like to apply! I have experience! I’d be embarrassed to say that’s how I’d choose my HC. I’ll be in the lot soon, and my experience is that people expose themselves more on the internet than they do in person. Kinda looking forward to that.
  16. Obviously, as a HC was the question, so ZERO. And the only thing relevant here. It was brought up, bragged about even, that he got a #1 seed before the Chiefs came to dominance. Whoopee. What did he do with it? I don’t think hours before the opener is the appropriate time to waste mental energy on this. GO BILLS! .
  17. How many rings does Vrabel have? I’m told that’s all that counts. (Don’t worry, it was rhetorical.) And we have paid the price breaking in a new HC already. People can and do grow in their jobs. That’s a real thing. I don’t see a point in starting over unless it’s a clear upgrade. None of those fit the bill for me, but then I don’t take it as personally and emotionally as some here.
  18. I don’t like injuries for anyone, but we’ve certainly had our fair share and I’m not feeling sorry for anyone else either.
  19. This makes gambling easier.
  20. I’m not impressed by your list or your thinking. Harbaugh is a maybe, but he wears out his welcome fairly quickly. BB is a joke, Vrabel might build culture, but we have that. What has he won as a HC? I don’t think taking the risk of rolling the dice on a guy who has never held the job of HC is a wise gamble. Hell, you have Brady on there and he’s only been a coordinator for one year. To be clear, I’m not a McD apologist. I’d fire him this morning if we had a better shot with someone else, but I don’t see that guy out there, just a bunch of maybes. I’m not blinded by hate and frustration.
  21. If I won I’ll kick in for half of the dome! I’m not feeling a lot of pressure there.
  22. So, what’s your answer to the stupid question? The way you make fun of the question, it must be a great answer. Who is your guy? What is his name? What is he doing today? This will be awesome to learn!
  23. I show up at 7am for 1pm games, and I am far from being the early bird. This is gonna be a long one today! My one piece of advice (learned the hard way, of course) is to make a right into Hammers lot. The traffic on Abbot is pretty heavy as long as it stays open and making a left into the lot can be problematic.
  24. Church can’t hurt! Throw in a Hail Mary for me! I know that’s low percentage, but it’s worth a shot! Nothing like GAME DAY!
  25. I agree with that. Nothing happens in a vacuum, and we both drafted to get better as a team. Andy Reid had ideas of what he could do with Worthy, and the Bills wanted a guy who could play thru the manhandling the Chiefs DB’s were allowed to get away with in the playoffs. I hope it pays off, but I’ll certainly enjoy finding out.
