The low ebidta could very well be due to the cap maneuvers and new contracts/bonuses paid out
That’s true, I guess, but it’s the teams you’d expect at the top and the bottom. I’d hate to be a Bengals fan, because I think they are inherently screwed by their ownership’s ability and willingness to put their best team on the field for the long term. They’ll be good with Burrow, but I doubt they can surround him with enough as players need to get paid.

You might need to be more specific, I lived in 9 houses (technically 8 but one of them twice) before leaving for college at 17. Mostly in Williamsville, but one in OP and a couple in Hamburg. My parents were in real estate. I’m at the airport now and will be in Williamsville tonight. Even though I only get back sporadically, it doesn’t feel like much has changed. I can get turned around at times, and things aren’t always the way I remember them, but it doesn’t seem to have changed much.
However, some of the places I have lived since leaving WNY are almost unrecognizable a few years after leaving. I spent my first 17 years in WNY, but then spent 30 years living in resort communities that exploded. I guess it depends a lot on where you live, and if people are trying to get in or out.

That $1.4 Billion purchase is no longer looking too steep.

Yesterday was brutal......it didn't actually hit me until we were at the vet and while we were waiting and watching the whole process take place, i remembered what a vet from 10 years ago told me when i had to put my other Lab down......"sometimes, putting a dog down is the last act of kindness that we can give them".......and once that thought rolled into my head, i blubbered like a little kid.
It’s true, and it’s all part of the process.

Me too. That has the potential to be a top 40 pick, for a 30 year old guy who didn’t want to be here
….and made a point of displaying it.

Your #2 point is interesting. Being that the trade wasn't done until April, it tells me Beane wasn't planning all off season on getting rid of Diggs.
It is interesting that Diggs got a redone contract to become a UFA next March.
He has a very high impression of himself given his age, recent film and the other options in Houston.
I honestly think getting a 2nd was a steal for us.

Let me put it this way. I do believe both Beane and Josh thought that Diggs could be a member of the team for one more year before free agency.
Something really went off the rails with Diggs in March IMO.
I like Diggs a lot but I'm sticking with the "knife in the back" thing.
I say they expected at least one more year out of Diggs. He had to stir the pot or shake it up or whatever.
He could help us this year under the right circumstances, but he has to want to. I’m glad he’s gone, and I’m thrilled they got a second for him next year.

Wear good rain gear, no problemo.
I don’t suppose my $2.99 poncho from Target really qualifies?
It might not be ideal, but it will be great.

I am in seat 15 of my row, so close to the middle? I don’t want to step on that many feet to be pounding beers.

You're going to the game dressed like this?.....
There’s no way he gets that bike thru security. The helmet should be allowed, and possibly even required for some people.

I’m so sorry. I know and hate that sense of loss, but making it to 18 is a very good run for a lab. It’s easy for me to tell you to remember the good things, but that takes time. I’ve always felt there was something missing in the house when they are gone. Somehow you can just feel a void.

I actually had a dog give us a signal. She went an laid in the middle of the back yard at 3 am, something she had never done before. So I laid with her till the vet opened. She had cancer and she knew it was time.
I had a dog do that, she went somewhere she would never go and laid down to die. I was fortunate that the vet was open and we learned an unknown tumor had broken free and was pressing on her heart. She was fine when my son left for school, and gone when he got home.

I’d say this is of equal value, but with the added touch of name calling.

I'm not saying I'm boycotting the league or anything like that but the NFL definitely went from trying to make a profit... into A GIANT GREEDY BASTARD a long time ago.
The worst part is I do think the quality of the product from a fans perspective has gone downhill over the years at the expense of trying to squeeze every penny out of the fans/viewers as they possible can(Ok bring on all the eyerolls and snarky comments from the fans who are still in denial that this is true🤣🤣)
It’s not the good and simple old days.
What the hell does this look like in a decade?
…or another month for that matter?

Anything that happens in…where are we again? Anyway, It shouldn’t count, so it shouldn’t be played.

I have nothing to add other than I still can't believe our game @ Houston isn't in prime time. That will be must watch television.
REALLY? That sounds like a game people would be all over! Even if you ignore the Diggs Drama, that’s a real football game.

I’m thrilled that we got the Vikings second round pick for him.
Less drama is a good thing.

I went to the last preseason game this year (with two daughters and four grandchildren).
Most people sat because it was a practice game and there were a LOT of kids.
Some foolish people were *obsessed* with starting a "wave" in the second half, most likely out of boredom.
* The wave is about as current as dialup internet
AND
* You do NOT do the wave when the Bills have the ball!
I explained this to the grandchildren so they grow up informed.
At a Bills game in Nashville there was a group behind us all dressed in Bills gear. It was apparently borrowed or freshly purchased. They were making as much noise as anybody in the stadium, even when we were on offense. When I explained that “now is the time to be quiet, Josh is trying to talk to his guys” they looked at me like I just told them the sun was made of cheese, in Latin. “Really?” Yes, really.
The same guy was pretty drunk, and somehow we went from high fiving to him patting me on the head when something good happened. I didn’t really care, but eventually he says “hey, your hair is all wet!” I said “I know, you keep spilling beer on me!” His second big surprise of the night! 😂

I think you answered your own question in the first sentence...
I found it to be a VERY different experience when we went for preseason games. I didn’t go to that many, but the game was kind of background noise while we felt like we were at a picnic. It wasn’t really about football.

Up until last season it was the best thing to get because of the Sunday Ticket. Now not so much.
I got DTV Satellite a quarter century ago to see Bills games on Sunday ticket. I still have the dish with a bare bones package of channels plus DTV Streaming for every day use. The streaming goes out from time to time, so now the dish is just for emergencies. A little redundancy isn’t the end of the world.

I just received a notification from them offering a one time $20 credit for the inconvenience caused during this dispute. I’ll take it.
It seems they are actively trying to do some damage control and a little self scouting. That’s the least we should expect.
But I won’t hold my breath waiting for anything to actually get better.

On the bright side, you must go to the bar, it’s outta your control… “nothing I can do about honey, see ya in 4 hours”
I went to a bar yesterday for the US Open at lunch. They didn’t have it either. Nor did the have rolls for my beef on weck. I struck out.

Weather for Opener Tailgate and Game
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
Well, let us HOPE it’s a good sign. I don’t brag much about how the Bills strangely find a way to lose when I am present in person. Another couple years like this and I expect they will use facial recognition technology to keep me out of the stadium. 😂
That was pretty freaky! Have a great stay.
