Do You Feel That You Can Speak Honestly About Race Relations
boater replied to Irv's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Never. When I worked in govt the Admin Assistants had a gig going... they would talk race with you over a period of time, lull you into a sense of trust. Then WHAM one day you talk race like you had safely before, and all the sudden they're deeply offended. They file an EEO complaint and disclose that they can be "made whole" by a payment in the 6 figure range. -

Nick O'Leary Recovering from Heart Attack
boater replied to Mike in Horseheads's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yes, rare for an athlete. My doc says genetics play a large role. Some could eat celery sticks 24/7 and still suffer heart disease. Apparently O'Leary falls in that group. Also, those of Irish descent appear more susceptible to heart disease. The good news: if caught early, statin drugs are effective. Heart treatment is amazing these days. O'Leary back in 2021 is not unreasonable. -
Does the NFL have a bubble plan? Covid rising
boater replied to Ramza86's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
COVID is declining nation wide, not rising. Yes, there are some hot spots like FL and AZ. Daily COVID-19 Deaths in the U.S. Have Fallen Dramatically Since April -

COVID may have saved us from ourselves.. in regard to the build downtown or renovate New Era decision. Taxpayers Still on the Hook for Stadium Debts, Even Though Coronavirus Canceled Sports -
Fracking industry projected to have $300B in losses

And sold Sabres = Sabres moving out of town. Just watch. -
Truth. It's going to be a tooth and nail fight to win the division. Fasten your seatbelts and pass the TUMS.

Losing a Restricted Free Agent (Lawrence Pilut) to the commies was probably the last straw.

Rumor/Speculation only: Will Pats sign Kapernick?
boater replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Bill Belichick teams are a "No Drama Zone" ..he would have no tolerance for the side show that Kap would bring Been out of football for 4 years. Was never very good anyway. He's not sincerely looking for an NFL job. -
There are 32 teams, and about 15 franchise quarterbacks. That sizable gap is going to lead all kinds of head scratching situations. It's not that there is a tolerance for mediocrity. It's that most teams simply don't have any better options.

Don't be so naive. Press conference with the Erie County DA showed the 5 of 9 arrests were out of towners. Fact.

Allen passing to Diggs connection looking strong already!!!!
boater replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Praying for no injuries. That would be awful. -
I could be wrong -- but I'm pretty certain club involvement in off-season practices where players voluntarily get together is strictly forbidden by the collective bargaining agreement with the NFLPA. I mean like seriously forbidden. Like losing draft picks forbidden.

Have you ever been to a Bills home game in Buffalo?
boater replied to Another Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I've been to five games in OP. Bills are undefeated in games I attended, though that was during the Superbowl run in the 1990s. -
If you mega-pay a player (Allen in this hypothetical), and also overpay 2or 3 players you end up in salary cap jail. Jailed teams are less competitive. Rookie contracts are very salary cap friendly. That's why the draft is so critical to success. A good draft gives you financial flexibility to pick up assets in free agency. To the OP: my opinion is that in 2022 if Josh Allen is lighting up the league, back up the Brinks truck to his house.

Can Stefon Diggs Emerge as a Superstar in Buffalo?
boater replied to jletha's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You're right, this won't continue long. We're only in this cap position because our franchise QB is cheap--and that contract ends in a couple years. You're right (number 2) WE DESERVE IT -
Ambien and liquor will do that to you. Ambien alone does it for some people.

lolz, if Josh Allen turns out to his potential, our QB 4 years from now will be Jake Fromm State Farm. -
Sportsline has Jets as overwhelming favorites
boater replied to BillsCelticsAngelsBama's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If the COVID epidemic taught me anything, the primary lesson learned is: experts and their models and simulations are generally bull. -
Whether this "portends well" is debatable. But it is certainly meaningful in one way or another. Buffalo is susceptible to price overruns on major construction (why would be a discussion for PPP). But you know costs overruns must be clearly on the mind of major players (Pegula's, Poloncarz, Cuomo) when they are looking at all the alternatives.
