ESPN's "Future Power Rankings"
BillsfaninChicago replied to BigDingus's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Oh ESPeon you are so silly... -
I am actually not saying Twitter has to allow any user on their private platform. My point (and I hate to even get into this because I love Howard) is that it is a bit hypocritical of Howard Stern to use the philosophy of free speech when it is to his advantage but then want someone else silenced. He has given a platform to people like the Westboro Baptist church as well as an evil racist like Daniel Carver so it does go beyond just sophomoric humor.

Ryan Leaf Hired by ESPN as College Football Analyst
BillsfaninChicago replied to Gugny's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Awesome to hear! He actually is a very good person that has, and most likely still deals with personal demons. I really hope he continues in his progress of the straight and narrow. Not only for him but for many others to use as an example on how you can turn your life around. -
SI very early 2020 mock draft
BillsfaninChicago replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Now wait just a minute, a week ago SI said the Dolphins “Super Bowl Window” was opened. Now they are going to he the worst team in the league next year. Talk about hedging your bets. -
No Punt Game - Reality vs. Myth
BillsfaninChicago replied to Ethan in Cleveland's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It may have been the choppers from Super Bowl XXV that stop the punters from coming onto the field. -
No I do and I also said he will be remembered as one of the greatest athletes of all time. I said the excitement behind him doesn’t match the excitement behind other all time greats of athletics like, Jordan, Ali orGretzky. I said he was the greatest just not the most compelling of the greatest. A minor distinction but I was pointing it out.

Death of the Hefty Lefty
BillsfaninChicago replied to RJ (not THAT RJ)'s topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I was really sad to hear this. Years I go I saw some clips of him playing and I actually had never seen a QB of that size play professionally before and he was actually pretty productive so I remembered Googling him and found he also was a really wonderful person off the field as well. Thoughts are with him and and his family. -
I can’t say I agree with your first point when you have Nate Peterman starting the game. If he was in a climate controlled environment he would be throwing more and we know what happens with him. The second point I do totally agree. To build a 700 to possibly 1 billion dollar stadium because on a rare occasion you think you will have home field advantage would be silly and while I did say i loved watching crazy weather games, the caveat I didn’t mention was I liked watching them on TV most of the time and not taking the brunt of it in the 300 sections (something I have done for well over 25 yeas of going to games but usually avoid if I am going to make a trip home now). Like I said though when they do decide on the stadium whether be it dome, retractable, or open air, I am going to be stoked!

Maybe I am just getting old, or probably just biased...or more likely a few too many whiskies, but while Brady is an amazing athlete he doesn’t seem like an amazing athlete where everyone gets excited about or rallies behind like Michael Jordan or Wayne Gretzky. He has dinked and doinked for 20 seasons and he will be remembered as probably one of the greatest athletes but he is Ringo Starr of the greatest athletes.

I love watching games when the weather is crazy. If the 2017 Colts game were played inside I doubt we would even remember and more than likely we would have lost that game with Peterman and I think Joe Webb at QB and would be going on a 19 season playoff drought at this point. Because of that I voted no roof. Having said that I live in Chicago now and only make it to 1 or 2 games a season so I don’t really have a dog in this fight. Either way I am going to be excited that WNY is going to have a 21st century sporting venue and even more importantly this will solidify the Bill’s future in WNY and we can all watch Mike Florio cry like a baby about it!

Isaiah Mckenzie working his tail off
BillsfaninChicago replied to End The Drought's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This is going to be an exciting training camp and preseason. Mckenzie is another reason! -
PFF says Bills still suck
BillsfaninChicago replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Well I say PFF still sucks. Take that! -
The worse draft in my Bills fan lifetime was the 2000 draft but looking at this 2016 was closer to that than I realized.

Dumb people have always existed this is nothing new. -
New Stadium Talk as of owner’s meetings
BillsfaninChicago replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Meh, I have been to Lucas Oil a couple of times it might just be the fan base but it is a very quiet stadium, like being in church. Really not to exciting architecturally either. I am planning to go to Jerry World for the Thanksgiving game so maybe that will provide the excitement DNA of this stadium. Having said that if this is true it is really awesome news because it truly and finally solidifies our long term future in WNY. -
Melvin Ingram lays down Super Bowl guarantee
BillsfaninChicago replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
To be honest, if it isn’t going to be the Bills any other AFC team except for the Patriots works for me. You be you Melvin! -
