Bob Chandler's Hands

The Cooks must be so pissed that Dalvin has been stuck in Minnesota all these years. Seriously though, do you believe anything some random person posts on the interwebs? For crying out loud.

I agree that the design is the most important thing, but it seems like having the field at lower elevation that the ground would mean less wind at velocity hitting the sides of the stadium as the boundary layer effect of fluid dynamics creates slower speeds as you get closer to ground level. Notice today how the flags at the top of the stadium will be out straight with whipping wind while on the field (or ground level outside) it isn't nearly that windy.

Wait...there are invitations to TBD? I never got one either!

A downtown stadium, as I understand it, very likely would have required significant use of eminent domain. Personally, I do not support that sort of draconian government action for a sports stadium. Also, the incremental $600M cannot be hand-waved off as 'worth it'. Where was that money going to come from?

When I was a kid and we played football in the neighborhood, the highest honor that you could bestow upon someone when they made a nice catch was to call it a "Chandler" catch.

I think you are selling it short. I recall plenty of Pass (incomplete)-Run-Pass-Punt sequences as well.

So the rebuttal to an argument about NFL teams hiring the same type of guys is to point to an example of 8 white dudes who were hired as HC's?

Perhaps the OP can change the thread title to "Jake Kumerow High Ankle Sprain and South Buffalo Real Estate Discussion"? I mean, just for clarity and future searches.

Aikman sounds like he's high.

Highly unlikely

Breaking the NFL record for tipped passes? Heck, I am worried that at this pace, sometime soon, EVERY SINGLE PASS Allen attempts will be tipped. Imagine how bad that will be for his completion %.

I like it

Also, Allen hurdled a dude.

Diggs isn't actually a coach, so far as I am aware.

Don't waste your time with this guy. I've had him on ignore for quite some time. And just to emphasize the point you are making in #2...neither KC nor Buffalo had homefield throughout the playoffs last year...it was TEN who wasn't as good as either team and couldn't get out of the first round. So to your point, grandiose and definitive pronouncements of what this game means to the rest of the season are somewhat stupid.

I saw a news release that it's 6-9 months recovery time after his neck surgery. So technically he could come back this season but medically, no Sincerely, A Fellow Bob Chandler Enthusiast

It's more likely that a meteor will strike Hochul than she will lose the election.

Or Langston Walker. I do not miss those days at all.

Didn't he actually say "Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing." ? (Agree that Tua needs to take care of his health first here...)

We're in agreement. But it's not like there weren't wars between the US Government and American Indians...there were. And it's not like Bill Cody was in any way unique in hunting Bisons. So, to me, disparaging an individual who was part of an entire era seems silly. But I digress...it is what it is.

He was a decorated soldier and famous showman. But I agree that today it's all about the 'imagery and iconography" (I like the phrase you used)

It's not meaningless intellectual lingo. It's quite literally laid out for all to see. Just because you either don't care or aren't smart enough to follow it doesn't mean it's not there.
