Hyde & Poyer. The Best? These guys think so
Giuseppe Tognarelli replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
PFT did a draft of best safety tandems last week and never mentioned BUF. -
Patriots ruin another season for the Bills
Giuseppe Tognarelli replied to The 9 Isles's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Bills fans really need to get over this Patriots complex. -
I bet Morse will opt out.

I actually think this is a factor.

There won't be a vaccine until a few months into 2021 at best -

Hopefully everyone who's going to get the virus will get it in training camp and get it over with. Herd immunity in a small community is probably the way to go. -
Seahawks trade for Jamal Adams
Giuseppe Tognarelli replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Is that really the best move to build a consistent Super Bowl caliber team? I'm just not sure paying a CB like a QB is something Beane and McDermott would do. From everything I know of Beane I'd be really surprised. -

Really think Beane will value him that highly in this system? -
Seahawks trade for Jamal Adams

Homers won't like this, but I think money trouble is on the way with Tre. This isn't the first time he's kind of hinted in that direction -- in this case, he's okay with what Adams did and supports Adams putting himself first and "getting his." He's also already thinking about state taxes. -

Awww, Bell is upset. Poor guy -
Chad Kelly is Ready to Race!

He has stayed in the league long enough to secure a pension. Good for him. -
New Era name to be dropped from Stadium
Giuseppe Tognarelli replied to BillsMafi$'s topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You have to feel for career people though who put in 10 years and then get canned for being too successful. It's very cruel but a harsh reality. Success and longevity at a company brings a lot of risk. Same thing just happened at my company with mass firings of long-time employees while rookies stayed on. Just terrible. -
Derrick Henry new deal

I just can't deal with the turd sticking out of the helmet. -
I went ahead and made a blog post about this (first time I've posted anything for 3 years, but...): https://billsblogbeta.wordpress.com/2020/07/13/its-time-for-the-nfl-team-from-buffalo-to-change-its-name/ The name of “my” team, the Buffalo Bills, should be changed, for many reasons: 1. Buffalo Bill slaughtered Native Americans. Other reasons: 2a. Many people reading this probably didn’t even know that the Buffalo Bills are named after Buffalo Bill (heck, you might not even know who Buffalo Bill was), because there’s literally nothing in the team’s branding that reflects the nickname. Not since the ’60s (pictured) has Buffalo Bill actually been used; instead, the team exclusively uses the city name in all of its branding. The nickname is not only confusing, it’s completely pointless and is arguably the weakest team name in all of sports. Can you think of another team that completely ignores its name? I would be willing to bet there are players on the team who don’t even know why their team is called the Bills. 2b. Because of the branding problem, many “football fans” have actually referred to the Bills as “the Buffalos” or “the Bulls” (and in the process revealed that they’re not actually football fans at all, but I digress). A change would eliminate this problem. 3. Buffalo Bill is called “Buffalo” Bill because he slaughtered buffalo! How is that a positive omen for the football team from Buffalo? Isn’t that kind of like beating ourselves? (Coincidentally or not, this *has* been the story of the Bills…) Lastly: 4. Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo. (Not really a reason, but I like to use this grammatically correct and complete sentence whenever I get the chance.) So, I propose that the NFL team from Buffalo change its name to: Buffalo Bison Buffalo Buffalo (a brilliant nod to the grammatically correct sentence above) or, simply: Buffalo. Using simply “Buffalo” is possible because the city is in the unique position of having its animal mascot in the name of the city itself, so no further nickname is needed. In fact, they’re already essentially doing this — the “Bills” part is completely superfluous and only confuses people. Or, they could keep the name and just change the entire brand to money. $$ Advertisements

New Redskins name in 24-48 hours
Giuseppe Tognarelli replied to section122's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm surprised how quick this was. I thought they would wait to announce until they had a logo and jerseys and everything. Who knows, maybe they got that done extremely fast as well.
