That's No Moon

All of this is shameful. The A's should stay where they belong. In Philadelphia.

Watched it on my phone after missing the start again. You're welcome.

I hate Jacksonville so much. This was nice.

Penalty yards is a prop bet....

Yup, and the lake is always going to be in the way, and the Buffalo River is always going to be in the way and need a certain type of bridge to cross it, and the grid is interrupted by the General Mills plant that isn't going to move, etc, etc, etc.

Having been to that stadium, PNC Park and Three Rivers, I feel qualified to shrug very hard. PNC has a nice view of dahntahn. You can ride a boat to the game if you want to. It's solidly in the "whatever" pile. Let's also remember that access to Buffalo's waterfront is a complete PIA and there are some factors that are not fixable. I'll ignore that being there in December - February is often exceedingly unpleasant and even being 5 miles inland is much better.

I'm going to miss the first half of the game again this week. It worked out pretty well last week. You're all welcome.

All of that is disgusting.

On what planet was that not PI? And people aren't supposed to think the fix is in for KC? It's stuff like that, which happens OFTEN, that makes that happen. Absolute disgrace of a non-call. Stripes should be fired.

kickers union had a meeting.

You'd think his spleen would be accustomed to high speed collisions.

How many cheating scandals between them? 3? Those are just the official ones, not the rumored ones.

Yes, the point is that indoor cats can live a long time. Hard to say how much longer it will live on its own. If it's sick it's sick and it's a different conversation, but I didn't get that impression. I'm still trying to figure out how my question was out of line. On a scale of 1 to 10 with where I could have taken that I give it about a 1.5. Putting it down is more humane than that.

My wife's cat lived to 21.

The Dolphins dont need any help screwing themselves up. I'm not rooting for any Fish either. If there are any double agents in Miami they are on the offensive line.

Feel free to explain. All you gave us is that since the cat is the only cat it's clingy and noisy.

So you want to put the cat down because it wants your attention and love?

If you have to tape its mouth shut, it probably shouldnt live in your house. Unless you have a safe word.

Taylor is too young for him.

She dumps him for a younger player? Imagine the scandal and all the clicks and views the young ladies would give for that.

Everybody gets old eventually

I did not want to face an 0-3 Baltimore team on the road at night. Glad they hung on today.

That intersection is 4.5 miles from City Hall as the crow flies. Coincidentally, you know what is about a mile and a half from City Hall? The intersection of Best and Jefferson. Is that downtown?

Where Fulton County was is the Buffalo equivalent of putting a stadium at the intersection of the 190 and 90, or the 190 and the Scajaquada. Yes it's in the city, no it's not downtown, and no it's not splitting hairs. Fulton County had NOTHING around it. I was there in 1995 and that should have reflected the peak of it's development. Stadiums like Fulton County weren't even intended to contribute to urban development in the way you are suggesting. They were built for ease of access from the suburbs as teams abandoned the city centers and if anything they detracted from urban development. Virtually all of the stadiums from that era had the same blueprint. Find an intersection of highways, bulldoze a huge swath of land, plunk down a (usually round) stadium in the center of parking lots. Repeat. The Vet complex, Fulton County, Arrowhead and Kaufmann Stadium, Jack Murphy Stadium, Shea Stadium, Rich Stadium and the original Lancaster Dome would have done that. That trend continued basically up to the construction of Camden Yards in Baltimore and if you go there it didn't really "create" development by itself, it was something added closer to the end of a massive redevelopment of the Inner Harbor to augment it, not to drive it. A stadium can help capitalize on development that already exists, such as the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville or whatever they call the Roomba in Vegas. It doesn't move the needle at all in terms of creating it. Atlanta having the Braves at all was much more of a reflection of the growth and burgeoning economic strength of Atlanta than the stadium they built for them or an AS game they had once.
