  1. Beane sucks. He’s the reason they were #32... don’t ever give the man credit!!!! 🙄🤣
  2. I wasn't alive for the Super Bowls... but I remember growing up my parents telling me about the exact scene you just described. Everyone chanting for Scott after he missed the FG. I didn't really understand the magnitude of that, but now I do. That story... that concept will always stick with me. I find it unbelievably powerful. I'm so glad you brought it up.
  3. You and Hap are so right. The classy thing for them to do would have been to just get together as reporters beforehand... decide on 1 question related to the passing of his grandmother and have someone ask it for the group of reporters and get it out of the way. I know they have a job and Josh has a job to answer those questions... but stuff like this is intimate. I couldn’t imagine showing up at work and having to continue to answer questions about a deceased family member. It’s hard enough as it is... Josh isn’t the type to really deflect. He seems to be a genuinely good person... so much so that he will answer whatever someone asks him and do his best to be polite about it. He’s really a true professional, but in return the reporters should have made an attempt to steer the discussion away from his loss pretty early on.
  4. I’m really impressed at how easily you make Diggs sound like JAG. You sir should write professionally.
  5. It doesn’t work outside of the US and Canada. The hospital has put out their phone number a few times if you’re outside of those areas and want to donate they’re allowing calls. Hopefully this helps!
  6. You’re definitely right. There’s a 0% chance Josh gets any type of MVP love this year. I just don’t see the voters doing it. Mahomes, Wilson and Rodgers will get the love. Not that it’s wrong or anything... Josh just won’t get that recognition even if he deserves it.
  7. Never got to meet the owners... but enjoy the place. Better than average food and a good atmosphere, like you said. I frequented the one on North Cattlemen RD. but have been to the one on Tamiami Trail a few times as well. Love the area... never been over by Hillview... at least as far as I know. I’ll have to check it out next time I am back.
  8. Lol. I've spent countless nights eating at Gecko's. Mostly because it's the ONLY place to eat right by the hotel I stay at for work. Decent little spot.
  9. Yeah, I get what you mean. I think the use of the word love in the context of a coffee shop is vastly different when using it to describe your feelings for another person. Using that word in a locker room setting is difficult, it makes people vulnerable. These guys don't like being vulnerable... making them that way around each other is difficult... but once it is done... well you've seen the results first hand here in Buffalo. It can really create something special. I'm sure you remember when McDermott had them up infront of the entire team sharing their personal stories... that's not a little throw away thing. That stuff is raw emotion... pure vulnerability. It's just stuff we aren't privy to. Daboll's interview here is a good indicator of what it's like in that facility and how those guys behave around each other.
  10. Pretty cool interview. The raw emotions and feelings are great, easily the single thing I love the most about this team. Everything is genuine. As much as everyone gives McDermott crap, he’s installed something like this. That word love has serious meaning there. He said in 2017 he was building the team, the culture, the organization on LOVE. Then you hear one of his top lieutenants preaching that in a candid interview. It’s not just lip service people. The behavior, the attitude, the people... they’re all an extension of what McDermott is putting in place. Don’t let his steady hand fool you... he’s not dumb... he knows EXACTLY what he is doing.
  11. 21 years old and emotional on stage during easily the biggest moment of his life. Came from what sounds like less than ideal circumstances. Did he handle himself like a model draft pick? No. Should he be made fun of for his behavior on an emotional day? No. People react to emotional moments in different ways. He didn’t do anything wrong.
  12. If I had a dollar for every disrespectful troll on this board, I’d be rich. Point being, get a new schtick, you’re not the only one who can be rude and miserable. Plenty of others have it covered at this point.
  13. I think it’s already pre-selected. You have to choose a larger amount. Just fill in your information and it should work!
  14. Love it! Me too. The Zubaz button was a great touch... man, I’m so proud to be a Bills fan.
  15. They do have this. Every professional sports team that operates in a league where replay challenges exist, has someone who fills this role. It may not be in the job title, but there is someone with the responsibilities included in their job description. The issue is the consistency of the league IMO. Look at the other thread today about the Marcus Peters interception. It doesn’t even make sense anymore.
  16. I mean part of it is you have absolutely no idea what the referees are going to come up with as an answer. Nothing is clear. We could’ve challenged the play today and the call could’ve been a TD. Next week we’d challenge the same call and it would be out at the 1. It’s so inconsistent. It has nothing to do with what they think, it starts to become what do the refs think. I’m sure they felt 1st and Goal at the 2 wasn’t worth potentially losing a challenge and timeout at that point in the game.
  17. Every team employs someone in this role
  18. Miami isn’t going away...
  19. Definitely the one where he hit Diggs on I believe 2nd and 20 where Diggs was interfered with and the ball came incomplete when he hit the ground. Inaccuracy if I’ve ever seen it.
  20. Six words into my post I tell you where I came across the statement that Hackett is a candidate. I will include multiple links from other sources here as well. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2916046-falcons-reportedly-interested-in-packers-oc-nathaniel-hackett-to-be-head-coach https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/falcons-head-coach-search-atlanta-has-interest-in-packers-offensive-coordinator-nathaniel-hackett/ https://www.thefalcoholic.com/2020/11/1/21544612/falcons-coaching-rumors-team-interested-in-packers-oc-nathaniel-hackett-chiefs-oc-eric-bieniemy
  21. Well, I think Nate Hackett being a candidate at least gives Daboll a decent chance of being one as well.
  22. I was just scrolling through NFL Trade Rumors and saw that the Atlanta Falcons have Eric Bieniemy on their list of potential HC candidates. The other name specifically mentioned was Nathaniel Hackett. I was extremely shocked to see this. Floored, really. Hackett wasn’t very good at Syracuse. Came to Buffalo with Marrone, wasn’t very good here either. Followed Marrone to Jacksonville and wasn’t good, but was used as a scapegoat for Marrone. Now he’s in Green Bay, which is the LaFluer/Rodgers show... but somehow he’s getting HC looks based on that? Yikes. I will never fully understand NFL hiring practices...
  23. NO! Beane is just incompetent!
  24. https://www.buffalorumblings.com/2020/3/22/21188079/listing-former-carolina-panthers-brandon-beane-has-brought-to-the-buffalo-bills-star-lotulelei Still really not sure why everyone gets so bent out of shape about this. There have been 20 players in 4 years... most of them depth players that do not stick around particularly long. The majority of the players that have been brought over from Carolina are gone now... Dean Marlowe (left and came back this year) and Star are the only two players from years 1-3 still remaining in the organization. Folks need to learn how to differentiate a depth signing from an impact signing... it's almost embarrassing at this point.
