Part of me knows anybody who really wants it will find it. But the other part says accessibility is so easy it will tap users who never would have considered it prior. But it’s everywhere now. No putting it back in the bag. To undue it would be just as difficult as it was to get it legalized.

Still the all time best TE for Buffalo. Nobody has really touched his level of impact.

We were as healthy as we will ever be last year. Given the previous few seasons it would be a miracle to be in the same position. 100% health is not coming.

We have a TBD fantasy league, and we seem to have a lot more sane conversations on this topic. I’ll be the first to admit I’ve trashed McD for a long time, but I reserve the right to evolve my take. Since 2017, no team in the NFL has forced more defensive turnovers. We average 1.6 takeaways per game in that span vs. an NFL average of 1.1. A turnover has an expected value of 3.5–4 points. We average half a turnover per game more than the league average over an 8-year sample. That means no matter how stupid or inept you think McD is, he's bringing a nearly 2 point per game boost to our team. No player on our team outside of Allen is worth 2 points per game. Very few in the NFL are worth that total. The defensive turnovers aren’t luck and they won’t regress. This team has been doing it for years by forcing long drives, attacking the ball, and daring you to challenge deep. He did it in Carolina as well. In addition, he has the 11th-best winning percentage in NFL history among coaches with over 100 games. Plenty of coaches have had Hall of Fame QBs and not come close to achieving that level of success. His approach has given this team a consistency that’s rarely seen in pro sports. So to say he’s not a top-10 coach is pretty insane to be honest. At the same time, do those who feel like we’ve underachieved in the playoffs have a case? Yes, they 100% do. I’ve dropped statistical bombs toward that cause for a year+. We are significantly worse against KC than any other team who has faced them multiple times in the postseason. Our EPA defense in the playoffs is one of the largest deviations in modern history compared to the regular season. On top of it, most of us felt the ’90s team was about as celebrated as a team could be without a title. So these regular season championship awards just don’t do it for many. I can assure you, they don’t do it for me. A time might come when we have to move on, and if it does, I’ll be OK with that. But I’d also expect Sean to get scooped up in about a half second. If we move on, it’s more for a change of pace or scenery and if you want to argue for that, go ahead. I have done that a ton over the years. Just know you’re on much stronger footing taking that stance than saying he stinks.

You sure you're living in my head? I think I get a call out from you daily at this point. Most go don't get a response it's basically the same as the rest of your 20k posts.

Start Johnson

I don’t really think she has blinders on. Maybe those admissions happened before I was around here. He clearly has a pretty large following that doesn’t seem to acknowledge what you mentioned. But maybe you’re right, I don’t know for sure. All I can say is that it's easier for me to focus on the politics in a vacuum when I know the person I'm talking with sees him the same way I do, at least in terms of character. As I’ve said before, I do have concerns that he could be manipulated by other world leaders or shifting global circumstances, simply because of his obvious personality flaws. A simple example, today he said that while he’ll ask Iran not to pursue a nuclear weapon, he doesn’t really believe that’s necessary anymore. So here’s an honest question, do you think he might hold back from aggressively pursuing efforts to prevent Iran from reestablishing its nuclear program, just to validate the narrative that it’s already been “obliterated”? I believe he would. And that would be a huge mistake. He’s vulnerable to miscalculations because of who he is. I’ve never felt that way about other presidents, even ones I considered incompetent. They didn’t reveal enough of themselves to be manipulated or they didn't need the credit or validation in the ways he seems to.

Harris was really bad and after that Biden debacle. who was perhaps even worse, I know I was pretty bitter and angry. I get why some went that way. I know some people I respect a lot that did. But most of them still acknowledge just how bad the guy is. It was mostly a pure political vote or a vote against the left based on the candidates. It’s the fan club that I just can’t understand. Plenty on this forum as well. Maybe they’re just fans of how he deals with the left. But who really knows.

They’re all gross and largely fake. Maybe that is his only redeeming quality. Authenticity, although, it’s just his raw personality that is authentic. That’s largely because he can’t control his emotions. He is still fake in the way most politicians are fake. So is he that much more authenticate than the typical political hack we hate? He would literally be killed 7 times in the movie seven. Kevin Spacey would need 3 more hours of air time for how many times he would have to kill that man. If people want to say well I don’t care because his politics just represent what we needed way more than the liberals. I can accept that a lot more. But my overall view is his voters find him to be a guy that is admirable in a lot of ways. I just don’t know how that reflects on those people. I suppose I have TDS.

This is such a perfect reflection of this man. The pursuit of getting credit is so important. Trying to say you're something vs just being it with a degree of humility. To even question him is to be considered a traitor. If any of your kids behaved this way in a team sport, demanding credit seemingly above all other things you would be so disappointed. It's just insane to me that anybody can find this behavior ok. It doesn't matter if it's a toddler, your boss, the president. Watching people just turn off how big of a scum bag this guy is because he represents the political party they stand for. We have had plenty of crappy presidents. Biden was among the worst, but I don't think it would be physically possible to have a worse human being running this country. THAT is my issue with him, his politics are just whatever. People will always disagree about politics. I hate that the leader of our country is this gross. https://www.axios.com/2025/06/25/trump-iran-nuclear-intelligence-obliterated

He will likely be a grandfather

You’re comically brain washed. Some third rate paper throws up a story by some third rate X poster and that discredits what every global news outlet has reported? The truth is probably in the middle but even that is probably hard for you to manage emotionally. As even your source never said it was destroyed. They said set back. Trump and his grand rhetoric are why we are here. He said it was completely destroyed. Which leaves a big hole that anybody can come into. Now both sides are going to say the other is lying. It’s not completely destroyed. Yes it is, well mostly. Well mostly isn’t completely. CNN, fake news. This country is such a laughing stock. How could it come to this.

I was laying the sarcasm on pretty thick on that

If it’s any consolation I would never count the number of people who agree as proof of anything. That’s said you’re horribly wrong on this one and should feel deep shame and remorse for your thoughts. But do so in an agreeable way please 😂

For as smart as Trump can be at telling a story and misdirection he just flat out encourages this type of push back with how he decides to phrase things. He is the one that linked the success of this mission to total destruction, completely destroying, bla bla. When you constantly use absolute language you leave open a big area that can get challenged. A more measured response and no story. It’s a story because he assured 100% destruction. What his base will eventually land on is “you know what he meant”.
