Ya gotta love it. While this thread was surpassing the 100 page milestone, Beane was at work in his office quietly signing Leonard Floyd.

This is going to get really interesting come the next Summer Olympics. I’m old enough to remember the universal outrage over the East German women who were clearly using enhancing drugs. Who knew they could’ve just dressed up men as women and achieved the same medal count.

I highly doubt there are all that many black students in Santa Barbara. I’m guessing this’ll turn out to be like old glass enclosed smokers patios at LAX. We used to walk by those and think how terribly sad it was that those folks were jammed into a smoke shrouded aquarium. Talk about embarrassing!

Out of curiosity…how would you prefer it be done?

Well there’s that too! 😉

A few quick observations: 1. QB seems to be the leading indicator of overall roster strength. 2. The Rams are a mess just a couple years out from going all in. 3 The Jets defense, for all its accolades, seems to have a bunch of holes. 4. The Bills roster, for all the debate on this Board, is shown to be the best across the board with no glaring holes.

Closer than you know: They’re used to be a cartoon that showed the various stages of a construction project. This particular stage, along with the final ribbon cutting, was titled “The Congratulations for the Non Participants” and we’d all say ‘who the heck is that?’ when the long line of these guys/gals would step up to the podium and proclaim to the crowd how they were so essential to the process. 😂

Isn’t it obvious? dHop didn’t want any part of OTA Phase 3. Anyone know how he feels about Phase 4? 😉

You are correct. Religion is indeed complicated....but Faith is actually quite simple.

I’ll simplify it for you. Jesus was/is God’s version of the Great Reset.

Is his name Italian or Hispanic? In Southern California the Di would be Italian. And De would be Spanish. In either event, NOBODY doesn’t know how it’s pronounced.

Thanks Hawk…well said I tried to boil it down to one sentence. 😉

I think the comments encapsulate why the draft is a crap shoot. All of these guys are athletically gifted coming out of college and most were that way their entire life. But when they turn professional they don’t all understand what kind of commitment is required to be good at your craft. And as pretty much any employer will tell you, the same can be said for just about every other college major as well.

Now THIS made me laugh! Well done SUNY! 😂

In what way couldn’t he handle it? He just said the question was silly. Unlike Obama was, the Governor should be no stranger to the national media. Not by a long shot. If you slow the “R” hatred for a second and listen to the actual question, you’ll understand that reporter CLEARLY wanted to take a cheap jab at the Governor’s ethnicity. Pathetic!

Morning SUNY! He didn’t say the question was hard. He said it was silly. Which it was.

Maybe so. Then there’s no need to ask him how the sitting Governor of Florida pronounces his obviously ethnic last name then, right?

On the contrary, we had a blast! (And yes, we lost that day.) We were chatting it up with fellow Bills fans the entire walk to and from the Wembley station. As I’ve mentioned, I’ve been to two of the 90’s era Super Bowls and the entire London week and game day was as close of an atmosphere to anything I’ve experienced. Thanks for the Tottenham travel tips. We’ve been to the stadium grounds but not on a game day. We went via overground. I’ll definitely look into the Seven Sisters station idea. 👍

Now let’s see if the FBI took a sharpie marker to the entire body of the document. 😉

Morning Tibs: Mr Mayo believes that ten second clip is an example of what exactly? Geez…these folks are literally terrified that DeSantis will do well. And that says nothing about the blatantly racial undertone of the question that the reporter asked the Governor.

Morning Tim Good luck with Summer School. I only have one question: What does this have to do with Donald Trump? (Kidding!) 😉

I looked it up . In 2015 Trump said that he doesn’t focus on asking God for forgiveness. He said that he instead focuses on doing better the next time. I have literally no idea why you believe that’s a watershed moment.He understands and acknowledges that he’s a sinner but instead of dwelling on his past sins (which I assume God is obviously aware of) he puts his focus on personal improvement (which I assume God would find admirable).

I’ll try. Once again, I’m really not trying to be a jerk. We were having a nice faith based conversation and then….boom…up popped Trump. As usual on here. 🙄

And ….we’ve officially jumped the shark. Have a great evening Bud.

Not trying to take this conversation sideways. Of the two of us, I’m not the one who started putting a litmus test on politicians. I’m assuming you also believe that Trump called the nazis ‘fine people’ and recommended that we all ‘drink bleach’? Neither of which is true. (Thanks for the faith discussion while it latest though.)
