  1. Capitalism is finally catching up to the aviation industry. All these companies associated with aviation have been printing cash for years now. There are way too many flights now days all to maximize the bottom line. There is too much pressure to fly in inclement weather, too many pilots that are being rushed through trainings in order to not have a severe pilot shortage based on how many flights are being flown now, inspections are being overlooked, and overall, this has been years in the making. It's really not a surprise. The industry needs an entire overhaul. They may sound rude or cruel but flying needs to go back to being a privilege. The number of flights in a day need to be cut in half. Train inspectors on new standards, inspect every plane, pull out the old planes, increase the pilot standards/flight hours, need to revisit when planes should be grounded, etc. The speed at which aviation has grown has been a cause for concern for old time aviation experts for over a decade now, and it has all been tied to a bottom like. The industry went from a luxury industry to a low-cost leader. Push as many flights as possible out, at the cheapest cost. Scary when you're dealing with life and death.
  2. Pretty spot on. I have been disappointed that there has been no change in the front office. Going into this draft with the same group that drafted Elam, Kincaid, Coleman and Bishop in the first two rounds is just throwing away another draft.
  3. When was he is the assistant GM? I watch those videos of the drafts, and he does a lot of work with scouting draft prospects. We are awful at drafting. If he doesnt get hired somewhere, I would look at moving on.
  4. Because TV Ratings are lies. Seriously, major companies pay off Nielsen to be able to charge more for Ad revenue. You will never see the NFL lose viewership in a SB. They pay too much to have that headline.
  5. Anyone notice how the Bills no longer list their Front Office on their website? I feel like there has been some front office loses since Beane has been here that has hurt. I think losing Joe Schoen was a big loss. We also lost Dan Morgan, but I dont think he did much for the draft. I also think the Bills should look at replacing Terrence Gray. Our recent drafts have not been good.
  6. The old school Big East basketball was better than any of conference.
  7. I said it many years ago, but Syracuse moving to the ACC was terrible for their basketball program. It was the beginning of the end to the program. First couple years they had the residuals of still recruiting as a Big East player, but now that it's been this many years, you are seeing the impact. ACC is a different type of game than the Big East and the type of player you need to succeed in the ACC are not the type of players Syracuse is getting.
  8. I feel like the only corners he burned this year were the Bills CBs.
  9. I know, that's why I don't understand why I have this notion that he is injury prone. He is always "hurt" and playing through it? I feel like I constantly hear about him banged up.
  10. Garrett has always that injury concern for me. I dont know what it is, but I take him as a guy that breaks down. Would I take Garrett on this team, 100% yes. Am I giving up multiple high value assets, not a chance.
  11. He ran a trick play on 4th down in the super bowl where his QB was the receiver.
  12. Probably wont be a popular opinion here, but I was hoping Brady got a HC job because I think Pederson would have got the OC job. I think this team needs more experience with their coaches.
  13. Didn't the controller tell the Helicopter pilot to maintain the separation by going behind the plane?
  14. 2 years in a row Bills had the opportunity to go down and score to take the lead, and Spags came up with a plan to prevent that.
  15. Its a very good point. Spags is the difference always when we play KC. Philly brought in Fangio this year and it made a huge difference. Brady is decent IMO, not this greatest thing that he is being portrayed right now. I do wonder how an experienced OC like Doug Pederson would do.
