Dachau is a very sobering place. The “museum” inside the main building is probably the most frightening thing I’ve ever seen. It’s hard to imagine that human beings could do some of the experiments to other humans. In the early 90’s, I happened to tag along with a few Canadian backpackers who had a young German 20ish guy tagging along with them on the bus ride to the camp. The poor guy was absolutely devastated by the camp and the cruelty that occurred there. He broke down several times and eventually waited outside the walls for the rest of us. He was from northwest Germany and was never taught about the holocaust and only heard rumors about Germany during the Nazi regime. He said that at that time, there was a large gap in the history of Germany during the 30’s and 40’s that younger Germans have no clue about. Im sure that’s changed now but it was eye opening to me that a country could keep over a decade of time secret from its citizens.

I know I’m not going to get any sympathy here but here in the Orlando/Daytona area, it’s barrly getting past 50 this week. The wind chill currently is in the low to mid 40’s. That’s pretty cold for this area and for it to last all week like it’s supposed to, it’s very unusual. Went to the ND/LSU game yesterday and the weather was miserable. Windy, raining and temps in the mid 40’s, it felt like a lousy November game in Buffalo. Looks like a new weather front should be hitting Saturday night into Sunday and get temps closer to 60 just in time for the game in Jax.

Prayers to you and your wife Count. Also prayers to the Doctors performing the procedure!

The one Bar scene looks like the Harry Buffalo in downtown Orlando. I wasn’t there, I was home scaring the sh!t out of my son because my daughter and I were screaming so loud and running around.

City you've never lived in, but felt at home there

Tyrod was benched because he shouldn’t have been here in the first place! !@#$ Rex Ryan with 34” 36oz. Louisville Slugger!! seriously, if Whaley has any acumen as a GM, he would have learned from the EJ fiasco and brought somebody into the front office with knowledge of Good quarterbacks and either drafted one or traded draft picks to pry one away from somewhere. Instead, we were left with EJ and Whaley and Rex bringing in a QB with obvious flaws. If Tyrod was so wonderful, why didn’t anyone want him(including the Ravens) the first time he was available? Then, he’s a free agent(more or less) again and still nobody grabbed him.

Gameday Thread Bills @ Jets 2nd Half
flomoe replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So, do we hate Tyrod this week? Seriously though, is he not allowed to check out of a run play when they have10 guys at the LOS or cant he read a defense? -
Can we please stop this stupid ass discussion regarding comp picks? Seriously! Who cares? Let's win now and stop worrying about this crap 💩
-
Does he know about them? Yes Does he approve them? Probably Does he dictate/generate them? Highly Doubtful This team hasn't won $h!t in 17 £u|<ing years. Trade everyone as long as they win somewhere Down the road. I don't care if a player saved 45 Seniors from a burning Nursing Home or 20 kids from a Day Care, if he can't make a tackle or catch a pass, cut/trade his a$$!

Somebody has to fill out the inactive roster

I'm a Scotch drinker that's started drinking Bourbon a lot more the last couple of years. One reason is cost, much easier to find a very good Bourbon less than a meh Scotch. Two is quality, which falls into the cost thing. It's hard to find a quality Scotch inexpensive while there's a ton of quality Bourbons at very reasonable prices. Dean, do you have a top 5 Bourbons that fall into each of the price ranges? High End-$75+, MidRange-$45+ and Everyday Stuff $20+ I like Makers but not the 46, Angels Envy, Jeffersons, Woodford Reserve, Duke and Willett. I also have an unopened Basil Hayden's sitting here. I don't mind Jim Beam Black but I'm really curious that you mentioned Wild Turkey. I've always pictured that as a "shot" whiskey. Is it really more Or just your go to? Thanks

That's funny, same here in Florida, around the major cities anyway. Good thing that car wasn't an old Pinto

The moron is the one with the blinker on trying to stop and make a left turn on the highway while slowing down to what I would guess is +\- 35. The "semi" (a guess based on the height of the camera) did the right thing and just plowed into the moron. There is no way that "semi" is going to be able to stop in time (my guess doing about 70) to avoid hurting that moron without swerving, jack knifing and wrecking and injuring a lot more than one car and person. The trucker did the right thing. I'm sure the trucker will be found at fault at least 50% on this one but has a chance to save his ass a bit with video evidence.

Looks like the idiot was trying to stop in the middle of the highway to make a u-turn. They're lucky that they didn't get driven into the split in the median and had the car sliced.

A definite YES

RIP Another American Hero has passed on. This should be quite an interesting series. Just hearing the perspective from former airmen that knew they had better odds of being killed or captured than living has to be incredibly emotional to tell and to watch.

This. Me too! I'm signing up. I've been out of Buffalo for 20 years and stopped reading The News many many years ago because it was the same old Negative Nancies following the same script week after week. It appears that you are trying to change the "Process" there and I'm curious how things are being written. I'm willing to give it a shot. Thank you for time and effort to reach out to the fans(readers)!

What Bands Would Be Worthy of a SB Half Time Appearance ??
flomoe replied to T master's topic in Off the Wall Archives
As much as I like him as a songwriter, he might just be a tad mellow for the Super Bowl. Has Genesis ever played it? Not their biggest fan but didn't see them mentioned upthread. I'm not opposed to AC/DC, Van Halen, Metallica or pretty much any others mentioned. No more Beyoncé please!! -
It's great if you listen to the witness accounts of what transpired(sorry, can't attach them here), But they say that she was fighting with the police while saying "I'm trying to walk here". She's just another liberal trying to make it look like she was being abused all the while she was the abuser. What a douche!

Jelani Jenkins already released (also Trae Elston)
flomoe replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The Jags have one of the softest schedules in the league. They aren't unloading anybody while they have a legitimate shot at a Division/Wild Card. I would love Hurns but he wouldn't do well here either given the current state of our QB play. If Bortles was offered, I'd be all over that for a 2nd! -
Remember When? McD tries to tap McCoy as his OC
flomoe replied to 1st Ammendment NoMas's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If the Bills had brought in McCoy, people would be clammoring for Dennison right now instead. The coordinator is not under center, the QB that really isn't a QB is and there in lies the problem. Bill Walsh could be coaching Tyrod and the results would be the same. He is not a competent NFL QB. He might be an ok placeholder for a week or two but he is not going to lead this team to many wins. McCoy knew that Tyrod is a coordinator killer and chose to find employment elsewhere, plain and simple.
