Many of "the public" complained like stuck pigs about the $850 million. In hindsight, that will be a tremendous bargain for the taxpayer. In addition to his share, Terry Pegula has to cover cost overruns out of his pocket--and those are going to be a doozy.

Easy: Big Bang Theory. I turned it on once and couldn't get past the incessant laugh track. I changed channels within seconds. I wonder if I would have liked it without the laugh track. How many TV shows has the laugh track ruined? I know Seinfeld experimented with it for a couple episodes, then canned it.

Did they call it a Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA)? Or a Cerebrovascular Accident (CVA), a.k.a. Stroke? I had a stroke at the young age of 34. I went home after 4 days, the residual effects lasted about 6 months. Many years later I have no effects, it just shows on my MRIs. There's a good chance you could emerge from this relatively unscathed, hopefully. Due to brain fog, I maintained a written TO DO list to take of post-discharge items. Yours sounds more complicated than mine. Good Luck!

Beane made his life so much simpler today. He reduced the number of moving parts drastically. He has significantly less uncertainty and much more certainty to deal with. He can now dedicate his brain cells to almost full time draft planning, and that's a good thing. He needs to hit the ball out of the park at the draft.

LOL.. that statement will explode a few heads around here.

Don't worry about the Cap details. The brightest minds here will assure you that the Cap isn't real.

There are lots of good Safety's on the free agent market. This is going to be interesting to watch.

He will sue. He will prevail in court. But he won't see much of his settlement money. You can't get blood from a stone. It's a long shot that whoever hit him has insurance that will cover this. Even if they have insurance, it's likely to be only half a million or less.

The City of Buffalo Animal Shelter is Pit Bull Central. Because of all the outstanding animal owners in the city. They call them "Pit Bull Terrier Mix" or else they wouldn't get adopted.

If you were a dude who went to school in WNY up until 1970-something, there's a good chance you had to swim naked in swimming class. It was common. My swim teacher gave me the creeps. Decades later I read in the paper that the school system settled three lawsuits where he sexually abused students. Those are the three we know about, how many went unreported? In the military, one of the crew was diddling vulnerable very junior personnel. That rapist ended up in the brig. It's disturbing for sure, especially when it hits close.

This thread turned out well. I thought it was going to degrade into a "our coach is wasting the best QB of all-time" thread. There's a template for McD bashing somewhere around here--people use it all the time. But the thread turned into stopping and realizing how nice we have it as it is. Yeah, I want to complete the journey and win a Super Bowl. On the other hand, I'm enjoying the journey itself of winning seasons.

Documents detailing Chinese government hacking were released to the public yesterday: https://news.yahoo.com/cache-leaked-chinese-hacking-documents-083355524.html Maybe this cellphone outage is the Chinese getting even.

Another missile in the AFC arms race. NFC is nothing.

I remember that I had a problematic laser printer at work at the time. Then this movie comes out with "PC load letter" ..I could relate.

Your points are true. Hidden benefit--the Kincaid trade up really screwed the Cowboys who had eyes on him. There's bonus points for that.

Heh. The high book value teams, the Cowboys and the Redskins, could be traded on the NASDAQ. Or at least the OTC market. And why is the book value of the Redskins so high. They have sucked for a couple of decades now.

Trading up for Kincaid worked out well. Trading up one or two spots is OK, any more than that is unwise.

In today's related news.... Caitlin Clark has it. She broke the NCAA point record yesterday. Her shot hit nothing but net.

Marcus Welby MD. I'm old.

Some posters will use any freaking occasion to beat their "Fire McDermott" drum. This thread is chock FULL of them. But there are other threads as well today. The Mahomes trope is years old, worn out, and unimaginative. It is wrong and BORING!!! This board.. sheesh.

I always wanted the AFC to win, no matter who it was, for the past decades. But today, with some sadness, I'm cheering on the NFC. It's a bummer. But I dislike the Chiefs more than I dislike the NFC. Somewhere there is Jill's guy who says "Look what I have, and you don't"

You can get more American if you sing Toby Kieth while looking at it. May he RIP. You correctly used chromostereopsis in a sentence. Do you hangout at AKG Gallery? You are TSW scholar of the day.

You have all your brain cells working, good. Tip: if your Doc prescribes a statin drug for cholesterol--don't take it. Statin drugs bring brain fog. As a White Male Senior recently looking for a job, I can assure you age discrimination is rampant. I even made a resume without dates--it got nowhere. So here I sit, retired earlier than I want to be.

I have an idea where Bass can go.... to a top flight Sports Psychologist.
