We're you the one outed as a Miami fan the last few days? Maybe I'm confusing you with someone else. I think flipping a bust for a 5th is good solid GMing. If Gettlemen could do the same he be employed today.

I promised no big trades, saying "I will eat my shorts." Pass the A1 sauce. I heard it makes shorts more palatable. I read your book Brandon Beane ... it's a play on the GEN Patton quote.

I remember when FirstEnergy opened, it's a fairly young building to be falling apart. I Googled, and it is falling apart. I hope the Bills do better in the quality department with Hallmark 2.0

Will the "At Home with Baker Mayfield" commercials for Progressive resume at Bank of America stadium?

I haven't heard that one in a long time.

What I suspect: Beane isn't out there calling other GMs with spitball trade ideas. I think Beane is only answering the inbound-calls from others. I expect 1 trade, and it won't be a blockbuster. Sorry, imaginative armchair GMs. I will eat my shorts if Beane makes a big trade.

My condolences. It's still within years of Mom & Dad passing and it still stings. Prayers to the Knox family. Losing someone too young must be triply heart breaking.

Baltimore kind of did this to themself. They probably could have extended Lamar earlier at a lower price. Beane foresaw this wildly inflated QB market. That's why he extended Allen when he did---he avoided the craziness. What a wise man.

It's a shame buses no longer run to Highmark. When I was a teenager in 1978 I caught an NFT bus to the Fleetwood Mac, Foreigner, Bob Welsh & Pablo Cruise concert at Rich Stadium. The buses idled in the parking lot during the concerts and you rode them home at the end. It was glorious. And the things my parents let me do.. unthinkable today.

OP is a sleepy place, and will remain so no matter what you build around the stadium. Too bad building a downtown stadium would have cost an additional billion more (and God knows the inevitable lawsuits, no actual construction until 2030).. downtown would otherwise be great.

Is this thread pinned? It ought to be.

Do you mean preseason games? Or, also no practices? I'm would like to see 17 at practices, but missing the preseason games. At practice, because I working on timing with the receivers is important, and also the new rookie OC needs practice play calling with his QB1. Not at preseason games, because injury potential.

I could have done without the Poyer injury.

From my memory, the Bills have moved up. Nice to see. Cinci, being so low surprises me. So much for the adage "Success on the field equals success off the field"

Schedule for an ACL is one year. TDW had his surgery 15 December. Draw your own conclusions.

Yeah. And it's hazy, but I remember a pest by the handle of "Combo"

Careful, there's a sizable and vocal "pay da man" crowd here who think Jordan drinks from the fountain of youth.

Nice tip. Thank you. I may go with the $1 dollar offer, let that roll over into the $7 plan, then cancel for the $20 year plan. Pure genius.

I cheat. I do the Mr. Beer kits. They aren't as good a true home brew, but they're good enough, I enjoy the results. https://www.mrbeer.com/

No. Not even as a depth piece. The perfect depth player is one who has a future, one who could potentially crack a future starting lineup. A 40 year old player is a dead-ender with no future. It would be a waste of a developmental roster spot.

I read somewhere this summer that 17 doesn't like his YAC numbers and looks to improve them.. he wants to position his WR for YAC. Can Jordan Palmer pull it off? Can he polish the formidable gem he created into a diamond? Can 17 do it? Will he put down the wings and concentrate on improving his game? (by all media accounts, 17 has been fully invested in enjoying his summer)

Reminiscing the old days when Rich Stadium seated 80,000+ those were the days. Those were the days when WNY was much more populous. Even with that, Ralph Wilson had to give away tickets to avoid local blackouts of home games. I, for one, look forward to a 60,000 seat stadium. With population decline we can't sell them out like we used to.

I was born and bred in the 716, but left for military service. I'm back in 716 now but my cell phone is 757--it really confuses people.

Let's see, the checkbook is a bit light. Poyer or OBJ? Can't have both.

The Fat Lady hasn't sung until the Community Benefits Agreement (aka: pork payoff) has been agreed upon. Must be done so by September. There has been very little progress reported on the CBA. There is time left for this to be screwed up.
