  1. What's amazing to me is if you live in NY state on the border with PA you find overwhelmingly it's Bills country (at least west of, say, Corning). Whereas if you drive 5-10 minutes south into PA it's clearly Steelers country. It's not like there is a river or mountains or a major city in PA splitting the two. Just the invisible border between states. Rochester is very much Bills Country. By the time you get to Syracuse it's more a split with the Giants and Jets, with Bills probably holding an edge. By the time you get to Albany it's Giants/Jets in the lead followed by Bills.
  2. Except that he literally set things up to ensure the team would not be easily moved from Buffalo. So your 'belief' appears to be completely unfounded. It's called negotiating. He was a businessman.
  3. Indeed. I was simply speculating based on perceptions. Who really knows, right?
  4. Notorious partier and womanizer Jim Kelly who got married and settled down and had three kids. Probably not.
  5. https://gazette.com/news/mitchell-football-superstar-terry-miller-talks-about-his-glory-and-his-crime-david-ramsey/article_1363fcc4-04a0-11ea-ad2e-87c76839afaf.html Outstanding article on Terry Miller's life. Mentions his NFL career ended through a cascading set of injuries to his foot and leg and I suspect general wearing down after such a prolific high school and college career.
  6. It was Joe Ferguson, but it's not clear he said that as opposed to the coaching staff thought it.
  7. Agree with the post except the last line. Not hard to arrange buses from remote lots for fans. Also, the off-premises lots would increase as a result of increased demand, fans just have to walk farther in some cases. No way they reduce attendance to due to parking.
  8. Lash LaRue was not a professional wrestler. He was a mid-20th century cowboy-actor. I only knew this because he was on the cover of a Waylon Jennings-Johnny Cash album I had, so I looked him up.
  9. Of course context is important. Anyone who plays QB any appreciable length of time in the NFL is surely amongst the top 0.01% of performers at their position in their age group among all who played organized football. They compete against other men who are in the top 0.01% of their positions who are dedicated to stopping them. It's natural that a bell curve of sorts appears at the very top of the profession because it's that way everywhere including teachers, lawyers, doctors, etc.
  10. https://library.rit.edu/archives/spirit-tiger-0#:~:text=In 1963%2C a “Tiger Council,could interact with their mascot. They did it at RIT with a Tiger back in the 60's.
  11. I'm a Bocce's man myself but if you are south of Buffalo, I recommend Imperial Pizza for the Buffalo style pizza experience. Gotta have those charred, curled pepperonis!
  12. Wawrow brought the heat on his question about people choosing not to get vaccinated, right after a bunch of softball questions, and Rousseau handled it like a pro.
  13. 1) Rush 2) The Tragically Hip 3) The Band (80% Canadian!)
  14. No, I understand your point. You are more interested in style than results. Got it.
  15. There is only one scoreboard that counts! It's called winning football games. 10-6, 13-3... We'll see how 2021 goes, shall we? I've been with this team and the NFL for 40+ years now. I get to be a homer if I want but in this case the burden of proof falls on the guy calling the front office inept while they put together a winner on the field.
  16. "Lucky as hell" with Allen? LOL. They scouted the hell out of that pick and nailed it. At the end of the day, you sound like a loser who bet against the franchise and is making excuses. All I have to say is "scoreboard". Look at the W's and L's. These guys are nailing it.
  17. Sorry to upset your narrative but Tre White and Matt Milano were good picks. Darryl Williams was a great signing. Tyler Bass looks like a stud. The whole regime would be getting fired if they weren't making the playoffs 3 out of 4 years.
  18. I think I just blocked all that from my mind. Selective amnesia. But now that you bring it up...😡
  19. This is the kind of analysis I pay for here on TBD!
  20. Josh Norman can attest to Henry's upper body strength and balance.
