Simstim

Rodgers going to be fumin'

This is fun

I think you might just be right there.

It is, but if he plays to his potential, surely worth it.

Is this draft faster than normal? Feels like it's whizzing by compared to some years

Like the pick by the Lions. Building for the future. Not overdrafting a QB too.

Starting to wonder if we do trade up at this point. Williams and Hamilton still being on the board. Or not. Oops

Ooof

I'm surprised, even if there were signs leading up to it. What a crazy off season.

Most pleased with this. Good deal and OL now decent enough and as importantly, locked in. Just CB(s) to deal with now.

Clearly real. The swearing shows it as it is. Added to how off-kilter it put Chris Rock.

That's fair. From what I saw, he seemed to come under the catagory of servicable out of the backfield, rather than excelling in it, but I didn't see him in every game, so I could have a skewed view.

Fournette doesn't work for me. He redeemed himself somewhat with the Bucs, and though he's pretty good, he's not that good and he certainly doesn't offer what we were looking for - and rightly so IMO - with McKissic as a pass catcher and someone able to break ankles. Offers a power rush and little else of real worth.

Of all the people at 1BD, Beane's the one I'd most like to go for a beer with. Says it all for me.

Beane was/ is furious at the WCs. He was choosing every word carefully. Was so relaxed answering all the other questions, but oh so much more controlled during those q's. Was careful to clear the agent and then put the blame simply at "the other club". Seething.

Wow. Colour me impressed.

1. 1991. Preseason game against the Eagles in London - called the American Bowl over here. Watched the game and decided to support the Bills thereafter. I'd been playing as a youthf for a while, watched the sadly very defunct World League of American Football (that became NFL Europe) going to all the London Monarchs home games. Ah the heady days of Stan Gelbaugh and Dedrick Dodge. Anyway, though I watched NFL games, I didn't really have a team to root for, or a reason to pick one. So I picked the Bills as they had come over here and won the game. I was pleased to support a team so obviously on the up and up, thus looking forward to inevitably supporting a Super Bowl winning team. That went well. 2. You'd think it would be the above match, but oddly I remember very little of it. IIRC it was mainly backups playing and I think Reich started. The no punt game was amazing and I recall moments from it. Kelly was a bit good that day. 3. The Comeback. Watched it in my bedroom. Cried after. Amazing. Special mention to something I imagine no one else remembers or probably even saw, and it's such a small thing. During Superbowl XXVI an English presenter was on the sidelines - Gary Imlach - who was about my height - 5'7" - and he got shouldered out of the way by an irritated Biscuit. The size difference was immense and Imlach just avoided being planted on his backside. I still giggle remembering it. Loved Biscuit and always thought he was underrated by the football cognoscente at the time. 4. I always had a special affinity with Beebe. I played WR in JR football here in the UK - a team called the London Olympian Jrs - and as previously mentioned I am a short bloke and was the third WR on my team. But my favourite was Andre. Him and Lofton together were a thing of beauty. But Reed's connection with Kelly was at times telepathic. Or so it felt at the time. Now, it's kinda hard to say anyone but Allen. He is amazing. In so many ways, not least how he has learned and improved every year. Special mention to Diggs though. I'm seriously impressed with him, and well, he's a wideout. Most important position on the team. Obviously. 5. Simstim is a reference to Neuromancer by William Gibson, father of cyberfiction. Not much of a relevant reference. I would have called myself SimSpurs to represent both teams I love. But due to the San Antonio Spurs, the reference would be wrong over here, and I have at best a passing interest in basketball. So I went with an old faithful of mine. This might also have put me at odds with Gunnerbill on here, and quite frankly I respect the guy too much for that. One of the best on here and knows far more than me about the game, even though I have been watching for more years. Not sure how long I have been on here. Originally I couldn't sign up with a British IP and lurked for a while just to see what true/ match going Bills fans were all about and what they thought about things, till eventually I could join in.

She was great. Really natural and both listened to and responded to Diggs. Some good editing may have helped, but that was a great piece, and she was genuinely better than many professionals. And Diggs responded to how engaged she was really well. Gotta love Diggs

Is.... is that... is that allowed?

No, Nope, NO. Past his best. Probably doesn't want to play without Brady. That Tre hit. I find his adverts deeply irritating. That's a definite no from me.

Too late, too much hate, not enough good reasons. That's an emphatic no from me

Josh was amazing. So was Mahomes. Sadly our D was not. Absolutely gutted

Damn

I find it hard to say anything other than wow. Wow
