I’m of the opinion that the lion’s share of next year’s roster turnover will be due to factors other than the cap. Like many on here I trust that the Front Office knows what they’re doing in the financial regard. But, let’s say the team makes the playoffs once again but craps the bed there, then I’m guessing turnover will come more out of choice than necessity. And likewise if they win the Super Bowl then roster turnover will come like it does for all championship squads as players, having accomplished the goal, will choose to leave for new challenges and greener ($) pastures.

We’re actually able to email a link to the model and the Client can look around the model from their cellphone. But, they cannot walk around inside it. They can just see a complete 3D image of a specific room. So in the case of the new stadium, the Bills could send you a 3D image from a particular seat, and you could look all around in every direction from you phone. It’s nowhere near as realistic of an experience as wearing the goggles.

No worries. In my business the actual opening of the new building has become a bit of an anticlimax. The VR experiences we can provide to our Clients during design are so realistic that once they stand in the real building the reaction is often something like “so… it looks just like the renderings”. 😉

Thanks....you are correct, it of course won't show you everything....but it is really darn close. Your comment on leg room is a good one. It's critical to the gameday experience. I've mentioned this in previous posts on stadium design and row spacing. I'm going to assume that Populous is going to get it right and pray that their experience will not be overwritten by those trying to squeeze in an additional row.

I’m not sure you totally grasped my comment. The VR representation of EACH unique seat will be part of the VR goggle experience. Everything. When we have clients put them on the reaction is always the same…”Wow!” or “Holy Sh@t”. Most reach out to see if they can see their actual actual hands and feet and many have to literally sit down just to keep from falling down. It’s something to do with the 3D stereo vision and the fact that the goggles engulf your complete peripheral vision. I’m guessing you won’t want to take them off and let the next person try them. Nobody ever does. 👍

You’d be amazed at what we can do with VR these days. When you put on the goggles you’ll swear you’re sitting in your seat. You can look in all directions, up and down. It’s incredibly realistic….but nobody’s going to spill their beer on you. 😉

He literally doesn’t even know what he’s fighting for anymore. He’s been lied to for so long it’s all just a blur of ranting and memes now.

He has no political views. It’s all just screaming about partisan crap day after day. He doesn’t know or remember what he’s screaming for anymore. Just totally lost in the ‘my team’ matrix. Sad…he had such promise.

Exactly They are all corrupt. So why not drop the daily partisan nonsense! Wake up!!!!

So now you’ve got something to do! I mean the Draft is over…so. 😉

Does it count if I really don’t like those white collared shirts that Kraft always wears? If not…it should!

Gunner...in the Bohemian Rhapsody movie, they show computer generated aerial images of what's supposed to be the old Wembley Stadium from back during the Live Aid concert days. Are those images anywhere near accurate?

And you do? It's your position that Biden's ex-daughter in law did consulting work for some Romanian oligarch? In what field exactly? And istead of invoicing the Biden Company, she asked that her payments be distributed through a middle man under some nebulous LLC? Sure! That sounds completely logical. In fact, that's exactly how my gardener invoices me for mowing my lawn. 😂

I was going to ask about the train situation leaving Tottenham. We were utterly amazed at how fast they got everyone out of Wembley. Is Tottenham similar? Do they stack up the trains, ready to go?

We were there. I thought about switching sides after BOTH team's quarterbacks decided to throw passes only to players wearing Charger uniforms. 😂

I'm sure all of that pollution is going to stay in their little corner of the planet's climate. Yeah.....right!

Geez that guy got bored fast! Hey Tom....try mowing the lawn.

With all due respect...Another ridiculous analogy. The Trump Organization is an actual company that existed long before DJT became the POTUS. That company provides real estate development and construction services. When they get paid, it's from an invoice they send, and the money is sent to the actual company...not to grandchildren and unrelated ex-wives. The Biden Family Syndicate is not claiming to have, nor did they ever, provide any professional services at all. Nor were their invoices sent for those 'services'. Nor was the foreign money then sent to an actual company...but rather it was laundered through a web of LLCs whose sole purpose was to avoid detection and taxation. Wake up!

And…Jacksonville no longer sucks. So they actually have some home fans who’ll want to travel, just like Bills fans.

One thing that hasn’t been mentioned about London is whether tickets are going to be even more at a premium with Jacksonville fans being able to go and catch two games while they’re there. I know I would. It’ll be interesting to see how it plays out.

Hey Brit, have you ever been to Bruges/Ghent? My wife says she saw it on The Bachelor and said it looked cool.

You of course never know how a schedule will truly play out but I’ve always said that it depends a lot on the mentality of the team from week to week. So I like the 2023 schedule on paper anyway. I’d rather it be backloaded like it appears to be, meaning that the Bills ‘should’ get off to a winning record as opposed to every game on the back half being a must win like it turned into just a couple of years ago when they slumped to something like 7-6 if I recall correctly, and had to win out down the stretch just to make the playoffs.

In the same London hotel with my wife while Augie apparently snores away on the pull out sofa. 😁

I hear ya….but meddling is different from observing. Meddling is where you and your wife are standing in the kitchen all day getting in the way, chatting with the workers, or asking them “why are you doing that now?” or “when are you going to do that?” every hour or so. 😉 Believe me when I tell you that even on large public works projects the Owner can hire on-site representatives that are a total pain in the arse. In my experience it all comes down to the people assigned to the project. (Builder, Architect, and Owner)

Looks like our ‘home game’ in Detroit is either against Dallas or New England.
