  1. I have seen a lot of comments about how a space eater like Star does not grade well on pff because his job is to occupy blockers. I don't know how pff grades dts but I do know that Star is not the only guy in the league to play one tech dt in a 4 man front. I also know that however they are grading these guys, Star has been at or near the bottom of these one tech dts the last couple years. Pff may or may not be any good; but if you look at their rankings of the different positions, the guys at the top and the guys at the bottom seem to make sense and align mostly with my own perceptions. That said, I think Star is definitely a Bill for a couple more years at least and I hope he plays his role well whether pff sees it or not.
  2. It is rope soaked in kerosene, lit on fire to keep the tracks from contracting too much; which can pull out spikes or break the rails.
  3. I hope your wrong too. It has been a long time since I had any hope for the Sabres near the end of the season so I really hope they can make a run at the playoffs and keep me tuned in til the end.
  4. record high temp in Kuwait was 129 in July 2016, second highest temp ever in eastern hemisphere.
  5. Sorry. Hottest recorded temperature on Earth was 134 degrees in Death Valley 1913. I do believe it was really freaking hot where you were in Kuwait, not 140 though.
  6. Only been two road games so far though, I am expecting another win streak coming up starting with this home stand. They got screwed out of at least a point tonight. This is a young team and I am still hoping they can finish the season strong and make the playoffs. Even a first round exit would be a big step. That boarding non call was so blatant and dangerous to a star player. Unbelievable wtf???
  7. my mom's cousin started and owned Wings and Things in Florida. Never met him but he offered me a job managing one many years ago. I declined and stayed out west. No idea if they made good pizza.
  8. yada yada yada and I'm really tired today.
  9. bull#### goalie interference call on that tying goal. He was obviously pushed into him, they review it and still no goal. Wtf??? And of course it is against Dallas. ?
  10. Thnx for sharing that, I haven't skied in a few years now but skied about 100 days a year for around 10 years in Utah. First few years I would work on the overnight snowmaking crew for a free pass before the season started, then get laid off when the tourists got to town. We had a blast flying around on snowmobiles all night, sometimes in sub zero temps. I don't think I could do that now. Best part was you got to keep your season pass and then ski everyday and make bank tending bar and waiting tables at night. I really miss it sometimes.
  11. 126 degrees in the shade at the bottom of the Grand Canyon, a similar temp in Death Valley and Lake Havasu City also. Coldest without wind chill was -20 degrees at 8000ft in Utah.
  12. none more so than Clay I think, only Gronk Kelce and Reed had higher cap hits this year. Between McCoy being #1 rb hit and Clay #4 te the Bills paid a lot of money for practically nothing.
  13. Plus Brown has played in the cold in college and the pros while Williams played in very mild winter in college and no winter in pros.
  14. speedy John Brown will not cost as much or command as long of a contract, will stretch the field by outrunning almost any db in the league. Speed kills, and with an arm like Allen's the safety will have to respect that. He is only a year and a half older. Then draft another receiver in the first 3 rnds. I would not want to overly commit $ and length of contract to Williams, an udfa with one good year 2 yrs ago.
  15. let's pick up their young tackle Jawuan James in fa to help them in their quest.
  16. Bring back The Who. Best halftime ever.
  17. I changed planes in St Louis onetime, 55 of the fattest people I have ever seen got on the plane at once. I immediately feared for my life, I wondered aloud if we would survive this journey. The guy across the aisle shared my fear and let me know he was along for the ride. Why Why did you agree with with him?????
  18. Milano has been an amazing surprise victory for the Bills Good Job.
  19. Pussies. Told you so. Pussies. Easy to see. ?????????????❤???????
  20. You have convinced me! Blake Bortles is the answer! Pay that man 21 million dollars! ?!?!?!!!
  21. Why spend money on good players in free agency when you can buy late rnd draft picks instead? You think that aligns with Beane's philosophy? I am pretty sure there is no 'Bortles plan'. Put a fork in this thread.
  22. McCoy sounded bitter talking about the Pro Bowl. Said he had been a real Pro Bowler, not an alternate or a replacement. Why throw shade at KW 95 and other players who are honored to take part? No class at all and an egocentric mentality.
  23. Thnx for contributing. It's settled then, you guys keep him.
  24. His cap hit this year is 21 million with a 16.5 million dead cap hit plus a 5 million dead cap nxt year. Wtf?? Why would the Bills want to take on that stupid contract and bail out Jax? A team they may be competing with for a playoff spot. This makes absolutely no sense to me whatsoever and it's disturbing that this is a 'hot' topic. ?
