  1. Putting it off to future is what Beane did with Diggs and the money which he did not have to give Diggs did not last very long.
  2. I have a cell phone but do not use it much and rarely give out number since I discovered many businesses seem to treat it as if it is a commodity to sell. When returning from Buffalo this weekend I had a text from someone I did not know. I was using it for driving back roads to PA to avoid I-70 construction / accidents and it was interfering with giving my wife directions. It started with text and then person repeated called. Typical blackmail you get in email - I know you and have information about you. Some garbage about not blocking his number. I did not read it all since I was trying to get directions to my wife so when I had opportunity I blocked him which also deleted texts. No indication on phone that he even knew he was calling.
  3. Squirrels are our enemy. They destroy my wife's plants when we go away and do not leave any food for birds for the squirrels to steal. I killed one once when I found it with broken back on road in front of my house - I dropped it into a bucket of water until it drowned like I do rats. I have been trying to get my wife to take pistol lessons so she can shoot them - she tried using an air gun and they ignore shots.
  4. i attended a CFL game in Baltimore when they had teams in US. It is a different game but liked it better than the alternates other than CFL.
  5. Hard to judge vs QBs who had to play in eras where WRs were frequently tackled without flags (i.e Giants in Superbowl) and QBs who could be and often were everywhere.
  6. Perhaps one of the video review people, perhaps Cover1, will make a compilation of the holds and illegal contacts. I suspect that many of holds and illegal contacts are positioned such that they are in direct view for referees even though they are caught on camera. Like the police some things have to be seen by them to be ticketed. It would help if Bills AV department was better and would put on big screen during games the plays so their would be more pressure for them to do better jobs.
  7. Putting a cloth cover on mirror which covers both sides of mirror will not prevent bird from landing on it but will prevent bird from seeing reflection.
  8. Amazing what some players will do to generate new sales of their jerseys.
  9. updated post. If the bird will not see reflection in mirror it will not attack it. I had a water bowl too shiny and saw birds attacked it so I replaced it and they stopped.
  10. Good article on it. https://www.williscarrier.com/weathermakers/1876-1902/ Livable if you can deal with insects. My wife has issues every time we go south of North Carolina. TVA is other thing which made it livable - that provided the electricity which powers the air conditioning.
  11. Coleman has trouble with initial start. He should work with Don Beebe's House of Speed.
  12. Gabe Davis was heavily planned as part of running game. He was called out one game for his production in game he did was not a target in a game. Running game likely will be impacted by Gabe Davis being gone.
  13. Bills website once reported wrong score for a game. QA is not a big thing there.
  14. He might even not be but hired a lookalike for cameras.
  15. Get a cloth cover for your mirrors and birds will bit have mirror to look into. Example of one - not connected to site: https://www.dragonsportsonline.com/buffalo-bills-nfl-mirror-cover-set/
  16. Last year, fireworks accounted for an estimated 9,700 injuries resulting in hospital emergency room visits. https://www.usatoday.com/story/graphics/2024/07/02/july-4th-fireworks-injuries/74247807007/ From Illinois to Utah: Firework mishaps claim lives and injure dozens this July 4th https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2024/07/05/july-4th-firework-deaths-injuries/74280499007/ Jul. 6, 2024 Man killed by fireworks that exploded near his chest, officials say https://www.waff.com/2024/07/06/man-killed-by-fireworks-that-exploded-near-his-chest-officials-say/ Sellars was shooting fireworks with some friends by holding them in their hands. One of the fireworks exploded into Sellars’ chest, causing him to fall to the ground, bleeding with a large, gaping hole in his upper body and a cut on his right hand. Jason Pierre-Paul Award In Colorado, a man lost most of his hand on Wednesday night when a firework he held blew up in his hand, the Colorado Springs Fire Department said in a report on its Facebook page. The incident happened in the Cheyenne Mountain area, southwest of Colorado Springs, the CSFD said. Several injured by fireworks shot into a crowd at an Independence Day show at BYU https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/05/us/stadium-of-fire-concert-fireworks-injuries/index.html Several people were injured Thursday evening by rogue fireworks that landed in the stands of onlookers at LaVell Edwards Stadium in Provo, Utah, during the America’s Freedom Festival, CNN affiliate KSTU reported. Man injured after firework launched into vehicle in Bargersville, Indiana https://dailyjournal.net/2023/07/03/man-injured-after-firework-launched-into-vehicle-in-bargersville/ The driver told first responders that he was traveling through the intersection when what is believed to be a mortar firework round was launched into his vehicle. It exploded near his legs, causing injury, and he was transported to a nearby hospital in stable condition, Pruitt said.
  17. Suicide by fireworks. Better chance in Russian Roulette.
  18. I try to ignore people who completely went bonkers because they are bonkers.
  19. I'd love a longer season with more bye weeks but that would also mean more games during the dog days of summer. Unfortunately even northern teams are having more and more extended 90+ degree periods. NFL will have to consider this in approval of future stadiums. Players would stay healthy longer unless they did stupid things during additional bye weeks.
  20. When you have as many emails as this there must be emails from other people he emailed with who also were expressing things which they would not want publicized. I wonder how many of those emails Gruden saved before he quit.
  21. Diggs was a bigger factor though. It was as if he hit a cliff combined with a bad attitude. Bills did a lot things to try to help him but he did not try to make extra effort.
  22. I did some bouncing in college and I was paid more for time after 10 PM - it was not a lot more but the bar recognized difficulty after 10 PM.
  23. I do not see HOW it can look good without all the luxuries some NFL fans require. They should turn the old stadium into helicopter landing spaces so those with money do not need to deal with the traffic to new stadium.
