If they let the MLS guy in I will get a chuckle out of it.
Chuckle all you want, but millions of Americans play and watch soccer. Its a truly internationally played game, unlike our Americanized rugby, not that our version of rugby isn’t pretty damn cool ?.

It would appear JJ Watt and others have a mature understanding of what constitutional rights mean, and that protesting injustice and blatant racism during the national anthem is what Americans call standing up for the true ideals of America.
Those that would try to twist doing so into an affront to our brave and honored service members current and former are perpetuating a known falsehood and acting in an UN AMERICAN way, and should give considered thought as to why they would purposefully continue to push this falsehood, that can only further divided our country.
As a former United States Marine I find this abhorrent self serving behavior reprehensible. Nations unfriendly to our Democratic Republic use this thinking to drive a wedge into the very social fabric of our Great and honorable Nation, it must stop.
Semper FI America!!!

No, what you are is intolerant to how other people feel. Values are not governed. Not by you. Not by me.I served as well.
Feel? How about the truth of the matter? American citizens exercising their constitutional rights is not and never has been an insult to we who served. Again, the flag does not and never has represented the military, the flag represents the constitution and the social values of our country, that in turn the military is sworn to and oath bound to protect, end of story. Your or my feelings do not come into play on this. That you “feel” otherwise is unfortunate and bears introspection on your behalf. Nothin but luv, and thank you for your service to our great country.
Semper FI. -

You are 100% correct.
You know what else is 100% correct? People are allowed to feel that kneeling during the Anthem is disgusting and a slap in the face to people that have served, and served and died while serving.
It goes both ways.
I’m one of those people who served, (USMC) and it is not a slap in the face, the flag does not represent the military, it represents the constitution and the social values of our country, that in turn the military is sworn to protect. Any one who thinks otherwise is willfully ignorant. This I had been a straw man argument/red herring from the very get go.
Go Bills!!!

Yup. He was targeted 50 times and dropped 10 passes. That’s 1 out of 5 passes. 20% of his targets ended in a drop.
Edelman led the league with 13. He was targeted 153 times. 3 times the targets, only 3 more drops. Gallup was 2nd with 11 drops.... on 113 targets. Running back Tarik Cohen had 1 less drop than Knox....on 104 targets.
The Bills as a team attempted 513 passes and had 26 drops. Knox had 38% of the teams drops and under 10% of the total targets.
I don’t think people realize how atrocious his drop rate was. I love the kid and think he has a great future, but he won’t last long if he continues to drop 20% of his targets.
Dude, it was a Sesame Street reference... ?

To me, the cops that quit there jobs in defense of those that in effect beat up an old guy and left him bleeding from his head on the pavement are not worthy of the trust of the population they are employed by and are supposedly there to serve and protect. They are punks, and should be publicly shamed by the people of Buffalo. The police are not there to enforce the laws, that’s the court systems job, the police are there to apprehend criminals, not beat them up or kill them.

One big hit to his wrist, hip, or ankle and all the arm talent and touch mean nothing, the guy certainly has potential, but as what’s his name, the tuna said, potential means you haven’t done sh-t yet... just sayin.
I like being a curmudgeon ?

I think it’s really a pointless discussion... having enough arm strength in the league is all that matters.... arm strength means zippo if your not accurate with it.
Allen’s arm strength has helped him out on multiple occasions, completing many tight window passes throughout the season, in fact it’s part of why the got the team to the playoffs. This ranking is quite accurate. It will be higher in a few months of course....
Go Bills!!!

As much love as the Bills have been getting as of late, they still get poo pooed with these sort of comparisons within the division, the old Bills reputation still lingers in the minds of many football fans, and prognosticators. After we win the division those lingering thoughts will dissipate all the more.
Go Bills!!!

Has he had anything to do with Buffalo since he left?
Not that I have noticed, never heard him say a word about Buffalo that I can remember... but hell my memory is starting it’s 62nd year, there’s lots stuff in there that doesn’t need to be recalled...

It is a bit of a conundrum actually, Before OJ went insane, he was a hall of fame running back, he retired, did some rental car company commercials, etc, then he went bat sh-t crazy and murdered his ex wife and her lover/ partner, then he cleverly got away with it and did other crazy azs sh-t, so there you have it, arguments have been made on behalf of both camps on every Bills board that has ever existed.
I agree with the guy, “Steve believe” above this post. I think the Football hall of fame should do something similar as well... OJ is after all the poster child of weak men getting away with domestic abuse violence, an on going theme in our country...
Go Bills!!!

What is everyone's opinion? Should politics be kept out of the NFL? My opinion is yes, keep it out. For starters, after a long week of working and seeing the news, I personally want to escape from all of that outside influence and relax watching football. I do not care who is sitting next to me at a football game, from any walk of life, I just want to watch the game and high five. Yet when things become political, the game isn't as enjoyable. My opinion is sports and sports teams should be like Switzerland and be neutral.
Switzerland was not even remotely neutral, they were Hitlers bankers, they hid stolen cash, Art, etc etc. for Germany, laundered money so Germany could still purchase what they needed during the war. They were guilty as hell during and after the war years purposefully hiding the ill gotten gains of a multitude of German officials. Thought you might want to know...
It is impossible to keep social justice issues out of any part of our lives, football players and team employees are not robots, they are humans with all that comes with that,
Go Bills!!!

Those guys were all old school. Always showed respect. Could have differences with other pols but always negotiate a settlement. Like Reagan and Tip O'Neill, always had late night one on one talks with scotches at White House to reach consensus. Lost art now. Someone always has to win and the other guy not only has to lose but lose face too.
So true, the art of comprise for the common good has sadly gone out of fashion.

Bill O'Brien will kneel...JJ Watt says kneeling is no disrespect to the flag or military

I Appreciate your sentiments, and I thank you, it was a privilege to serve my country.
The owners of our country, yes us citizens, in effect have no constitutional rights if government or business entities can thwart them when ever they feel inclined. The playing field is not level.
Capitalism brings many rewards, and is mostly a good thing, but greed and power (capitalism’s twin evils) need to be properly regulated for the common good of everyone. Presently the greed and power aspects are out of hand, and those two things are the root cause of our current social unrest.
