My favorite Go Bills moment? Thats an easy one. At our daughter’s wedding I ended my Father of the Bride speech by telling my new, Southern California born and raised son-in-law that the secret to their freshly minted happy marriage was to always remember these four words: “Yes Dear and …Go Bills!”

When the Bills played the Cowboys in the Super Bowl in Atlanta, my dad took me out of school Thursday and Friday to drive to the city and hang out in the lobby in the hotel the Bills were staying at. I got about 25 autographs including Ralph and OJ. OJ was nice and was hanging out in the Hooters restaurant and two of the waitresses went upstairs after their shift. The hotel escalators had security and only the players, families and Bills Management and special guests was allowed up. Those waitresses got the nod.
Also, I was inside Jim Kelly's RV after a game for about 30 seconds the following year.
My dad and I were also at the Atlanta Super Bowl. We were walking around downtown the night before the game and wandered into a party at one of the hotels. That’s when I realized we were standing next to Snoop Dog at the bar. My dad said….”who?”. 😂

I’ll never forget attending the Bills game at Minnesota a few years ago. The Bills blew the Vikings away early….and there was Kirk Cousins still throwing four yard patterns to the bitter end. The Vikings fans sitting all around us had their collective heads buried in their hands.

After years of my Dad scraping together the resources to buy season tickets at the Rockpile and then Rich Stadium, I was able to return the favor by flying him out to Southern California and taking him to the Super Bowl at the Rose Bowl in 1992. We had a blast! Now, he’s 91 and was just diagnosed with advanced prostrate cancer. So…. I’m praying 2024 is finally our year. It has to be, right?

During the drought years I’d scream at the TV that the Bills desperately needed somebody who’d hit somebody on the other team for a change rather than hug them and help them up off the pile. You know…like somebody who’d been arrested for heaven’s sake! Apparently the Chiefs were listening.

Wasn’t there a recent thread that said 24 year olds are a dime a dozen? Or am I confused.

This is how much Josh Allen will get. It’s scary. Next years cap is projected $273 million. Josh Allen will get approximately 24% of the cap.
ALLEN WILL SIGN FOR $65 million per year. 😲
It’s unbelievable that 7 out of the 10 QBs are in the AFC and the remaining NFC threesome includes Murray at AZ being paid some ridiculous amount for some odd reason.

I used to secretly sing that song to my niece and nephew when they’d come for a visit and then my brother would call and scream at me that they’d just sang it in his backseat the entire hour long car ride home. 😂

Now he can afford a shirt with a collar. 👍

If you don't have $5mil for TT's place, you can buy this 1,000-foot, 100-year-old house in Palo Alto for barely half the price...
Phil Lesh of the Grateful Dead once rented the home and he let Bob Weir live in the garage. Hewlett-Packard was founded in a different garage just a few blocks away.
I’m not going to say who we bought our house from.

Reading all of this back and forth debate on the bottom of our WR room causes me to lend some credence to the opinion that receivers may in fact be…..a dime a dozen.

It’s like most other situations. Give this guy a top 10 QB and he’s a genius. If not, then he’s trash. Even a guy that’s been there for 17 years and never had a losing season
But we have a Top 5 quarterback….no?

Thanks to everyone for the help. Go Bills.
So ….what exactly is this tradition that you and your wife have?

These would all be so much shorter if you people would just agree with me.

I have no idea what anyone saw in Rosen at any time. I would never ever draft a QB from USC.
It should be noted that Josh Rosen definitely did NOT go to USC. He played for that ‘other school’ across town. Fight on!

They’re starting some pre-cast concrete installation. About 1,400 pre-cast pieces forming the bowl and to the upper decks that will support the canopy. Awesome! Pre-cast is like big Lego. It should start getting more of a stadium shape.
(I don’t know how to or if Insta can be embedded.)
Thanks for sharing. Those pieces appear to form the base of the lower deck at field level.

Lol, it is such a bad group on paper. It’s like a drought era position group playing with the guy that will end up as the best player we’ve ever had. Weird.
I agree on the 6 from the OP. Claypool has ability and is good in shorts. If he’s focused he will have to play some. Otherwise it’s a mix of different role players.
I’m not sure if it’s bad or good. I’m just a bit shocked at how few Bills draft picks are in that list. If you remove Coleman, who again has yet to play a snap all of you have left is Shakir. Maybe that’s true of most position groups in the modern NFL

Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Indianapolis. My college roommates both live there. Haven’t seen either of them in years.

A good friend of mine’s twenty one year old son was murdered while visiting Mexico as have many many others. The issue here is not the per capita murder ‘rate’ but who are the targets. It’s VERY rare that a tourist is murdered while visiting the United States.

It can’t be much worse than going to a Raiders game in Oakland. That was brutal!

He is 34 years old. And you are still referring to him as a young adult? He is a full grown adult.
But I get it. People take longer to grow up today than they ever have.
Same age as my daughter and yes, to me, she’s a young adult. 😁
I'm really starting to love this WR room. We quietly got better

Maybe but keep in mind they’re a dime a dozen regardless of experience. 😁
