				Josh Allen, Von Miller Golf Channel interview
Beck Water replied to JÂy RÛßeÒ's topic in The Stadium Wall
I have no idea how the joint strength and stability to play a non-contact sport like golf maps onto a timeline for developing the joint strength and stability needed to make it through a football season. I don't think you do either - 
	
	
				Josh Britt unverified Breakup rumour

Well, first of all, weekly podcasts with a media figure are "feel good" pieces. No athlete is going to do them with a guy who asks them hard-hitting questions. If you listen to Josh Allen's segment on Kyle Brandt's basement, it's often uncomfortably fawning on the part of Brandt. Pretty sure the athlete or his PR team submit lists of questions or topics that are off-limits. The sports talk guy doesn't "play ball"? Neither will the athlete; these are extra media appearances beyond what the NFL requires. So weekly podcasts with sports talk guys are NOT going to go there. Catch Pat McAfee asking Aaron Rodgers uncomfortable questions. Doesn't happen. Second, being a public figure does not mean the public is entitled to know every aspect of the guy's life. The Bills, under McDermott, seem to be doing an excellent job of training their players to handle the media. Consider how Josh Allen neatly side-stepped questions about his personal health choices or his grandmother's cause of death. Josh just said "I'm going to keep that in-house" and that was that. Jordan Poyer same - led a press conference with a statement that he wasn't going to take questions on the "panini" and just responded to any attempts with "do you have any football questions? I'm here to answer any of your football questions". If reporters want to know about stuff like that, they can do what reporters used to do when looking for a story - hit the streets and look for sources. All the stuff that's supposed to have happened, must be someone who actually saw or heard something with their own little eyeballs. And Josh speaking on the topic would NOT put rumors to rest, people who want to believe gossip would just say he's not telling the truth or he's covering stuff up. I think it was pretty clear from Brittany's friend's "now accepting husband applications" post at their Fresno Derby celebration, and also from Josh's solo appearance at the Derby, that they're split up. -

You're kidding, right? Kidding, or trolling - 
	'Cuz he's a troll from a nest of trolls, best ignored. This board conveniently has a feature for that.....

	WHAT IS THE BRAND OF THAT SPRAY? I'm asking because of our own squirrel-tooth story. We do a Christmas lights in our yard every year, where we spiral lights up two trees that flank our walkway and then swag lights between the trees. We've done one or another variant of this every year for a couple decades. About 5 years ago, the squirrels decided to chomp through the strands spiraling up one tree. We replaced it, only to have "Chewy" do it again. We went through about 5 brands of squirrel repellant from big box and garden stores. Chomp. Some worked for a week, but as they wore off...CHOMP Finally I read that the "hair of a predator" might deter them. We have this 45 lb critter who donates a bag of white fur every time she's brushed. So, we took a strand of lights and stuffed tufts of white hair in between every twist. That did it. Lights stayed lit. Bonus, since the fur is white, it looks like some kind of planned Christmas decor during the day.

				Run for the Roses: Josh Allen attends, disguised as a Creamsicle
Beck Water replied to Beck Water's topic in The Stadium Wall
Oh, OK, I am SO wrong on this. Apparently the guy next to Eric Wood is Josh Reed Channel 4 Sports Director Josh Reed, and his appearance (not his fashion choices, his decision to be at what seems to be Eric Wood's home and to pose with Josh Allen and Brandon Beane) is controversial: https://buffalonews.com/news/local/alan-pergament-kentucky-derby-photos-of-wivbs-josh-reed-with-josh-allen-brandon-beane-raise/article_f01f66ae-f0be-11ed-8337-678b5c798b5d.html#tracking-source=mp-in-article - 
	There's an ebook someone pointed me towards years ago when I lost a dog to cancer. The author has edited it over the years, but in the original version he quotes someone who explains "for many people, the death of a pet can be harder than the death of a family member. this is because many of us have complex and ambiguous relationships with our families, but straightforward and loving relationships with our pets" Sorry about your loss
 - 
	Absolutely, and not just our children's medical care but our family's as well!

	So the results seem to be, about 10% of ya don't buy from places where bargaining is reasonably common (Marketplace, Craig's List, Yard sales, etc). Adjusting for those who do, about 60% bargain and 40% don't. I think that's about right - it's partly a matter of upbringing/cultural background. I come from a family of bargainers, originally from necessity. Those who don't bargain, mostly don't have a problem with those who bargain (or try) - just say "firm" or "that's really the price I want". But, there are some who don't bargain, and who feel very strongly that it's bad manners (rude, entitled etc). Personally, I don't get it - all very well if you don't want to bargain, but if you know there are cultures/backgrounds where bargaining is common, how does it help a sale to get offended? But, I know it's out there now, so it won't take me aback if I run into it again.

	I'm not crying, you're crying! My kid played CYC ball. One of her teammates was obviously in pain in her hips during their final game. Her mom said the doctor said it was "growing pains". Well it wasn't "growing pains", it was Ewings and it was in her hip and inoperable by the time they found it. She has a memorial in that church now. If you have health and your kids have health, you have everything. Everything.

	Suggest that he write them ASAP requesting a certified copy of his transcript - check it carefully for errors when he receives it - and asking who will take over student records for them.
 - 
	I thought he looked a little slow - he did mention that he was rusty What impressed me is how smooth he seemed, like @Buffalo_Stampede said no wasted movement. And the hands looke nice.
 - 
	Yes, buddy. Let me try to spell it out. You're playing HS football for Central High Your Team got Owned by West High last season Your opponent this season, North high, says "I saw your game against West last season. Looks like they had a really fun game against you. They are a) complimenting you b) trash talking you c) neutral I don't believe you.

	This totally cracked me up. Dad Guessing Team Names Can you match these before you watch it? The Sun Whales The Lucky Horseshoes The Red Helmets The Top of a Fancy Gate The Scary Looking Chickens The Horny Helmet Men The Chicago Bulls The Angry Woodpeckers {Can you give me some easy ones this time?) The Sharp Bananas The Flaming Horseheads The Tigers The Blue Tigers {No! There's no tigers!} {How many teams are there?} The Southern Fellas The Jets 😅
 - 
	Trust me on this. If your opponent is having a "fun game" against you.....it's a shot on you. I see it differently
 - 
	Wearing an "I wish it were colder" shirt too, I missed that the first time. And Rodgers in Times Square topped by an "I ♥️ NJ" instead of I ♥️ NY", I missed that the first time too. They had a couple shots at the Bills from last season. The "Fun Game Against the Bills" behind Cousins in the Vikes clip. Plus Diggs off by himself, separate from the team, in the Bills clip

	Edmunds played. But we had Bernard instead of

	I think that's an astute observation. Josh openly said that the elbow caused him to change his motion from his preferred 2020-on "rotational" motion to a more overhead, lateral motion That's the throwing motion he came into the league with, and struggled with accuracy on short passes with. So I think it follows that he was not as pinpoint accurate with those middle of the field and short throws, thus hesitated to take them.
 - 
	So what happens when you blitz a guy? That's one less player to cover and if the QB gets out of the pocket, one less player to contain and pursue. To the OP - what did the Bengals game look like?

	Former marginal LB with the Browns and Eagles (2013-2015) who parlayed that into a media career. Current Fox Sports 1 analyst. It's all about the Clicks

	Yeah, I don't know what to think of that. The USAToday article @QCity linked makes it seem a slam-dunk that Araiza did nothing and the girl was a willing partner for everything that went on that night. But the girl's attorney makes it seem as though the DA presented a limited, biased set of evidence, and the full picture looks very different. There are just these little "uh, what?" tidbits, like the DA saying "your piercings were still intact in that video" "um, you can't see her navel area in that video" "oh, yeah, you're right, I can't" and so forth. So I think where we're at is, without the full evidence, the rest of us don't know what's true or not. I think that is what's giving teams pause, especially since the "slivy tove" lawyer has made it very clear he will try a case in the media. But if the attorney is mistaken, it would seem Araiza has a pretty sound case against them for defamation or whatever it's called in Cali., with lost earnings and the whole ball of wax.

	Not quite. The CBA prohibits the NFL or teams from taking any action against a player for events which occur before he is signed. So even if he had been on a roster before, they still couldn't act because the events took place before he was signed (or even drafted).
 - 
	That's actually....impressive. I have friends who have visited Mexico and bargained like anything in the markets I don't think wolves sharpen their fangs. They just use them.
