Just now, The Dean said:
Agreed. But I'd like to think "liking to watch football" should be part of the requirement for a Bills beat reporter. Too many seem like they really don't like the sport they're covering.
Granted he was a columnist, but I always thought any Sullivan column on the Bills should be prefaced with the phrase 'I'd rather be golfing...trying for under 100'.

Headlines are normally done by the editor, not the reporter.
Maybe we should 'reach out' to the editors about that?...(Christ, this journalism newspeak grates on my 5Ws nerves.)

Brady opening up to Oprah ?
......now I've lost respect for him.
He was thinking of telling it on an ESPN program, but Frau Bündchen (neighhhhh) said "Oprah or else!"

Will not play unless starter goes down with an injury
If I remember correctly, Calgary's stadium has a grassy knoll...
I miss the old Ottawa franchise's games against Saskatchewan.

Back when the [BN]competent still used Disqus as a comment service, I slammed that digital rag non stop for the errors, omissions, hack writing, and never ending supply of drunks leering for the camera for 'Smiles At' galleries. Especially bad were some of the slang and errors in story headlines. Another commenter stated bad headlines are often the fault of an editor, few reporters are allowed to title their own stories.

Police operator: 911, what's your emergency?
Woman: My husband is staggering around the front yard with a bullet wound.
Police operator: What are you doing for it?
Woman: Reloading.

Q. What's the most confusing day of the year in Wullerton, Saskatchewan?
A. Father's Day.
This is only funny if you live in Dog River, Saskatchewan. Try substituting 'Lancaster' and 'Cheektowaga' as the two hypothetical locations. Creative individuals might even tinker this to insult one's in-laws.

I guess Polain is trying to only hire coaches with NFL experience...
Anyone have Coach Stephenson's and Coach Bullough's phone numbers?

Best late round draft pick in Bills history
Never would have done it had Dez not been his 'go to' guy all season and right through the playoffs.

1. We suck.
2. We're awesome.
3. We suck again.
Well, doesn't that seem just like the past 17 years.

I have worked for 2 NFL teams. How many have you worked for?
Does shovelling snow at the Ralph make me a Bills employee?

Interesting dream... I have to ask, is she in the car with you? If so, is she visible to the casual observer? Assuming no, when you’re speeding around the curve are you yelling “Watch the teeth! I said WATCH THE TEETH!!”
No, which immediately renders the second and third questions irrelevant.

Better? Is she the woman of your dreams, now?
Well, yes. Dreams after too many slices of a Bocce Club cheese, double pepperoni, onions, and black olives. Usually at some point in the dream I am also driving a vehicle too fast around a curve.

he likely ends up as a 3rd QB somewhere. too bad the CFL is already underway. The guy needs reps to improve, perhaps could have played up there.
Some of the second string QBs will be recalled to Stelco, so there's always hope for Hackenberg.

Thanks Ridgewaycynic2013, that would actually probably be best for me in the long run as opposed to Peterman growing forgettable and having a senseless nickname.
"I was watching that legendary quarterback back when he was throwing 5 picks in a half!"
Ah, with nostalgia like that you'll be a natural to introduce Peterman at his HOF induction ceremony...unless he too 'pulls a TO'. FranchiseQB and BurpleBull there in the front row...brings a tear to my eye.

every time you buy coke, you're providing resources so a Drug Lord can buy another pet tiger and get a docuseries on Netflix. I like watching them.
I thought every time you bought coke, a PepsiCo exec gets angina.
17 hours ago, blacklabel said:Hmm... fair question. I'm not sure. I'm assuming they wrote the rule in a way that basically says no major alterations can be made to the helmet. Teams used to be able to wear throwback uniforms with a different colored helmet but now with the emphasis on head injuries, CTE, etc. the league has a real thorough checklist for equipment managers to maintain. They must feel that using a different colored helmet (even though the alternate helmet would be the exact same model and size that the player already wears, plus they can take the same facemask and put it on the alternate) could strengthen the opportunity for a head injury. "Oh, Player A wore a throwback helmet in week ten, there was a slight chinstrap alteration which caused his concussion, therefore we, the league, are not liable because we told teams at the beginning of the season that they have to use the same helmet for the entire season!" Or some whacky sh!t like that.
Like a lot of things today, 'it's all about the lawyers'.
Tom Brady supposedly tells Oprah, retirement sooner than later.

Wow. And I thought I hated the Belicheat/Brady/Patriots three headed monster. Gronk is not part of the head, just the horse's ass.
