  1. Big Brother referring getting bigger, not that there’s anything wrong with it.
  2. Worked in a garage/shop with 20 others. Typical “friction” amongst some there. A new boss thought closing down the shop for an afternoon for an on grounds Xmas party was good idea. It was a first. Anyways, a flare up occurred after a bit of imbibing, with two doing a pretty good face to face thing, thought they were gonna go, but it was quelled. Then, the boss goes off. He’s pissed, in more ways than one(🍻)like pretty much everyone, he goes at one of the guys, kinda does the finger in chest thing, guy gets up shoves the boss, others try to break it up, more shoving, a couple over the top swings, down to the floor it goes. Then it ended, it was brief, no real harm, boss was big about it, no backlash…..and no more Xmas parties.
  3. I don’t look at it as overpaying so much as being on the hook for longer than he’ll contribute. I realize that’s an antiquated concern to Billionaire’s who want to win now.
  4. Would have liked to see Bills red against Lions black. Ugly vs. Ugly sometimes works.
  5. I don’t care what else the NFL does with their product. I don’t mind paying to watch games that aren’t in my local broadcasts. The cost is cheaper than going to a game. As far as paying for playoffs or SB’s, that ain’t happening anytime soon. Were it to reach a point I feel ripped off, I opt out……and go to my kids.
  6. Every team undoubtedly spend significant time working on clock management. It’s part of coaching criteria the same as every game aspect. It’s not something that’s recently come out of nowhere and is catching coaches unaware. When teams respond to time management in pressers it’s to placate critics, like they typically do on everything.
  7. Ours were ceased due to safety concerns.
  8. Have interjected this topic in conversations that praise the NFL for knowing how to “grow their sport”. Been told that’s silly doomsday talk. It’s a buzzkill issue. The NIL won’t be enough to slow the HS evaporation.
  9. It’s still a “happy place”.
  10. Didn’t expect 2024 to look this good. Would have been happy with a repeat of 2023 regular season results.
  11. Wasn’t directed at you, I reread after I posted it and saw it might seem so. Is this what they mean by lost in translation?
  12. I gave the wrong impression. Fried is top notch. He’s struggled in playoffs, but you sign him no matter what. It’s a step forward after, through no fault of their own, the Yanks took two steps back losing Soto. The 8 year contract isn’t a big deal, I over thought that.
  13. This spin here is just another McDermott is incompetent hatchet job. There aren’t any clear examples of other HC’s being uniquely better than him at time management. Analogies it works in business so it’s transferable is so apples and oranges.
  14. “Hurry up, you’re wasting time”…..hey??? Where do I apply?
  15. So you made it up as part of a hit piece. Got it.
  16. Eight years? Not sure how much this moves the needle, they needed a lefty though.
  17. Wouldn’t be my opening statement in McD’s defense, but that’s me.
  18. Well, you are the Jokeman.
  19. Where is this quoted from?
  20. Hopefully he’s not SOL
  21. Maybe it's age, maybe it's Bills Burnout, but whatever, I get over a game in fast fashion regardless how it went. My wife, thanks to #17, for the 1st time in our marriage wants to watch with me. It's ***** brutal to be honest. So game ends, she's po'd. I say "oh well it was a great game". She snaps "how is it a great game if we lost ?" Is she right?
  22. Footballs structure makes last minute/seconds decision making so intense and dramatic, dare say the most in team sports. Many coaches crack. It's definitely a big part of the games appeal.
  23. Remember making edible candy ones in the same mold as the rubber ones, which were toxic. Apparently kids ate both. Chemistry sets were great back then. To say they were the "bomb" wouldn't be a stretch....and the poisons. Great stuff.
  24. Beane's booked a flight on Space X to hopefully scout out more.
