    In “No Show In The Snow,” he was the only one running up and down the sidelines, shouting and yelling,

     

    Ahh yes, a sure sign of an awesome player and leader. :lol:

    Perhaps he should have spent more time running up and down the actual field and he may have contributed more than 30 yrds receiving.

    I know your stance on it, so not directed at you...  but a bunch of people I knew from meetings back when I was getting my s*** together (coming up on 6 years) used “California sober” as a dig, mostly the old-school crowd.

     

    I get why. There’s some risk, especially for people who were totally clean for years and then decide to try green again. That can wake the compulsive stuff back up. But that group is very small.

     

    For everyone else-the people who’d never even try getting clean unless they had some kind of release valve, it can really help make transition easier.

     

    Same idea as a cheat meal keeping you from bailing on a diet fully and binging for a month lol

     

    I’m basically fall into 2nd group.

     

    Even before id ever tried quitting seriously I'd figured out if i needed a quiet night, or to not blow my paycheck, If i rolled one up when it started getting dark, it crushed any drive I had to start drinking… there'd even be nights where i tried to change my mind and try to binge drink, and couldn't even get the drinks flowing on purpose.

     

    drinking is what fired up my drive to end up in the powder too

     

    A comic kinda summed up my experience with drinking and cocaine perfectly with:


    “Drinking without smoking is like trying to poop without peeing.”

     

     

     

    I know a couple people that have used the green to combat heroin and oxy addictions and have done so successfully.

    That's a route I'll never condemn.

    For me, I sometimes go months without a beer or a cocktail but as soon as I knock a couple back I am instantly looking to burn one as a force multiplier. :lol:

    And the insane amount of booze you can consume while blowing rails is terrifying enough that it made me see the light and knock that shlt off.

    I believe this is the first week in the McBeane Era where a majority of Bills fans are now skeptical and doubtful that they can deliver a Super Bowl victory.

     

    This is an interesting point and could very well be true.

    I've always thought McDermott's rigidity and conservative nature were a bad fit for Allen and the Bills SB chase, but I also thought that they'd be able to gather enough talent to overcome the issue.

    I'm no longer sure I believe that.

    What is California Sober, smoking pot?  I totally can believe that.

     

    Yeah, no booze but ganja is OK.

    Technically it's supposed to be using cannabis while avoiding all addictive substances (alcohol, nicotine, caffeine, etc) but I think there's also a lite version.

    California sober?  Is that like Alabama celibate?

     

    Celibama?

    My names are Jim and Bob and it's been 120 days since I made out with any of my cousins!

    Censorship on TBD

    It contained zero information, zero insight and was nothing more than a woe is us LAMP, half of which was just you repeating two words of lyrics that you stole from Leonard Cohen.

    If you're desperate for it to be revived, PM me which of the "Fire McDermott" or "Beane Sucks" or "We're Doomed" threads you would like it to be merged into and I will see if I can dig it out of the bin.

    For Rex, Terry was a brand new owner and relied on Russ and Doug, and while Whaley needed to be convinced he ultimately came around on Rex.

     

     

    This is true

    After that, Terry used an outside consulting firm and they are the ones who helped him identify McDermott. Whaley was barely involved as he was on the hot seat and on his way out as well.

     

     

    This is not true. 

    When I say that Whaley wanted McDermott and pounded the table for him, it is not idle speculation or reading tea leaves.

    I was given first hand information that was who Doug was fighting for, prior to the hire.

    Has Jalen Hurts become the worst passer in the league?  

     

    He's never been a good passer but he has squeezed every drop of talent he could possibly get out of himself to become a better QB than I thought he'd ever be.

    Gotta respect him for that but he'll always have limitations as a pure QB, imo.
