  1. It's obvious they didn't prepare to do play by play for this game nor do they have the people in the truck in their ears.
  2. Because it's a 50 year old building with no redundancies in the main systems.
  3. Lots more teams are running zones so everyone is looking into the backfield
  4. The scoreboards only support single digits what with the soccer and all.
  5. Singletary is great side to side but he's slow so he can't really exploit the space he can make for himself. Yes. I know he had a long TD run. Every single back in the NFL would have scored on that run. I'm talking about play in play out. It doesn't help that his receiving skills are subpar at best and the OC will do things like split him out wide. If I'm the defense I invite you to throw the ball there. Please. Do that. If Daboll is going to run an offense that wants to pass this much you need to have a back on the field that can catch the ball and threaten the defense and Singletary isn't that guy. Moss, for want of someone better, is. One of the quickest side to side and the slowest forward. It's a shame. He makes some nice creases for himself but the acceleration just isn't there to really take advantage of it.
  6. Well, they apparently dont want to use Miles Sanders to do anything but block and they drafted Kenny Gainwell this year. Maybe call Philly and see what it would cost.
  7. Hurts is under siege and Sanders has two carries all night.
  8. Well if you want to be technical it was AP American History and AP World History but I didn't realize I needed to be that specific. To answer your question, no actually I didn't read his entire post. FTR I've had multiple people in my life, including quite recently insist that Long Island be pronounced the way I spelled it. Oddly, all of those people are actually from Long Island and all of them are Italian. I don't know what that means but it is what it is. Also, one can acknowledge linguist differences without mocking them. Finally, Long Island sucks.
  9. It is? Everyone on Lawn Guileland is Jewish? I think the Jesuit who taught me social studies in 11th and 12th grade would disagree.
  10. Not for nothing, I just looked for tickets on 10/3. Didnt seem to be super cheap as though tens of thousands of people were desperately unloading tickets. Maybe it's that most of us believe one thing and you believe the other. If not feel free to DM me with tickets you are unloading for pennies on the dollar. It's my son's only open weekend of the entire season.
  11. Pegulas seem to be looking for anyone and everyone to pick up part of the tab for this stadium. County,State, PSLs, "inviting" UB to be a tenant. Mhmm.
  12. I retract every comment I ever made about Tage Thompson. Sweet feathery Jesus.
  13. I think you missed what I was getting at regarding Sheen and his history of transactional relationships.
  14. Depends. Who is paying?
  15. I still like the yellow splotch in Wyoming. Can confirm I saw quite a few Bills stickers when I was out there this summer.
  16. Swimmers do it a lot. It can be as much for recovery as pain mgt.
  17. Maybe he's dating an octopus?
  18. It's a nice way of saying they all screwed up at some point but they all also did some things well. I don't think the coach is going to call them out in a press conference as much as we might want him to.
  19. I think there is a difference between PETA protesting on behalf of an animal and a group of actual human beings telling you over the course of a number of years that the word you are directly attaching to them specifically is offensive to them and they want you to stop using the word. I highly doubt you'd drive out onto a reservation somewhere, hop out of your car, and say something akin to "Hey, how are all of you redskins doing today?" If you wouldn't use the word in that fashion why is ok to use the word as part of a caricature of those exact same people? Go out to a reservation dressed head to toe in that costume your high school used. If it's an overblown thing that isn't worthy of consideration then you should have nothing to be concerned about. Right? It's not about everything being offensive and needing to be eliminated. It's about listening to people we as a society haven't normally listened to and God forbid at least trying to be a basic level of respectful towards. You are welcome to use whatever words you want to use. There are a long list of words that different people have asked not to be called and for obvious reasons I won't make a list. I would suggest that if you wouldn't use those words in the presence of the people the words refer to then you are actually aware that they are not appropriate and choose to use them anyway. If your child brought home someone from one of the groups with a word that has been deemed to be inappropriate and you wouldn't call them that word to their face immediately upon meeting them then, again, you are aware the word is hurtful. You wouldn't use it out of common courtesy and politeness. I still occasionally refer to the football team as the Redskins, it takes awhile to change your linguistic habits after spending 40 years calling something one name, but I'm at least making an effort. If you're not at least willing to try, and using that specific word in that way is more important to you than having a basic level of respect for people who have repeatedly asked you to stop doing it, then I dunno what to tell you. Quite frankly, the board has a language filter that is pretty liberally applied to plenty of other words the world at large has deemed to be inappropriate for public consumption and it's a little surprising (and at the same time not at all) that that particular word hasn't been included yet.
  20. Negative
  21. They were arguing about their favorite "At Home with Baker Mayfield" commercial.
  22. I bet his wife doesn't mind his bank roll. Cut the guy a little slack, he got hit in the head. A lot. For a long time.
  23. This. There are plenty of examples to go watch. You make a rule to decrease the amount of fighting. The rule succeeds in decreasing the fighting so the fans wonder why there is a rule.
