"I must be in the front row!" Iconic, I've repeated that line more times than I can count.

Yup, I'm old - and happy to take the good (or bad) natured slings and arrows that come with it. The bolded is exactly what I am poking at. I'm at a point in my life where I can comfortably afford many things but I often choose not to because the perceived value isn't there for me. But then I see my son want to take his GF to a baseball game and the cost is through the roof for them. jmo, but it feels like entertainment options have become more cost prohibitive. And the poster child is spending hundreds of dollars to send your kid to see Taylor Swift for a few hours.

If you'd listened to opinions similar to some on this board back in the day you would've never believed that Elway's window for winning a SB didn't include his final two years in the league. Don't get me wrong, I don't want Josh and us to wait as long as Elway did, but I agree that this "window" talk is used too much.

This reminded me of a co-worker telling me prior to one of the SB losses to Dallas that the Jimmy Johnson led team would beat the Marv Levy led team. He openly mocked Marv's motivational capability. Whether it was a factor or not he ended up being right.

Ticket prices for concerts, sporting events and other entertainment options have gotten to the point where more often than not they exceed my perceived value. At the same time I'm aware that when I was growing up there were folks older than me that complained about the same so maybe I just hit that age and need to reconsider or stfu.

I will not "go find the draft recap / video that came out after drafting Josh when Schoen and Beane were interviewed on the process leading up". But thanks for the homework assignment to back up your claim. Instead, I'll take you at your word. With that said, I'm not so sure it's commonly accepted that Daboll made the Josh pick.

Daboll drafted Josh?

The first view of the field when you go to a game. I grew up going to baseball games at Shea Stadium. As a kid walking from the outer concourse into the stadium and seeing the field for the first time was always kind of magical. Even into my 20's when my friends and I were getting in line for that first Harry M Stevens Bigger Beer I had to walk out to see the field before I got on the concession line. Good times.

Wake up in the morning Clock says half past one I have no sunglasses as I step into the sun There's no recollection Of the evil things I've done Head feels like I must have had some fun What happened?

Above song came up on a playlist the other day. Classic, love it. Back to the lyrics: I've gotta get home, there's a garden to tend All the fruits on the ground and the birds have all moved Back into my attic, whistlin' static When the young learn to fly, I will patch up the holes once again

There's one team left that I hope loses, I'm fine with the other three. Put your money on the Dodgers.

I was checking out the TMZ video and at the point the caption said something like 'stumbling in front of the bar' I didn't see it. He looked 'off' for sure but I've seen (or been) a stumbling drunk many times and the caption came off as typical click bait BS. Not defending Sanchez at all, whether it was drugs, alcohol, meds, a manic episode or something else everything I've read or seen points to him as the problem. Hope the driver has a full recovery and whatever happens to Sanchez he does as well.

If he was getting in the face of an ortho I'd file this under nothing burger wrt concussion protocol and something the NFL shouldn't care too much about. But still a very bad look for Daboll in general.

This thread is about pizza not board games. And for the record there are much better board games than Dominos too. Sacrilege.

First off, RIP Mike Greenwell. Brutal way for the Phillies to lose, but it's not surprising when relief pitchers have fielding issues. As an aside, the Phillies road unis look great.

I wonder if the Pope hates the Cubbies.

Agreed on Ryans time with the Jets first two years (20-12). Not so much next four years (26-38). How did Rex do with a Bills team "esp considering the competition at the time". Or is that a pass?

That's fine, didn't intend to put words in your mouth wrt loving Rex. I'm highly skeptical that the Rex we saw would have taken us where you think he might have with Josh. Interested in why you think the opposite. What impressed you so much about Ryans time with the Bills that makes you think he could've taken us with Josh to the SB? He was 4 years past his two years with Sanchez and was 26-38 after those two magical years after with Sanchez.

..and Rex would have allowed us to achieve the ceiling we all want? If I'm dreaming it's bigger than the Rex we saw not the Rex the Jets saw. I get the McD hate, I don't get the Rex love.

For the second straight season I watched a Bills game while on a college visit to see my son. Last year it was the Ravens debacle. Loos like I'll have to schedule next years college visit for the Bills bye week!

The day you syndicate The Rockpile Review is the day you'll be dead to me. JK. Congrats on being published and good luck!

So which 3 deserve a SB ring this year or are running out of time? Different question than how I read it, otherwise I'd go with Josh, someone else and Josh.

#metoo And I'm a Mets fan.
