  1. Lol as a woman I don't automatically assume such allegations are factual, but when there's that many claiming similar incidents by the same man it's very hard to ignore that the accused is likely guilty and then for him to admit that one of his accusers cried and he apologized in texts to one for making her feel uncomfortable does make it look like he is guilty as well. He does appear to be a serial sex offender and as such he's not gonna stop offending. I expect he will be caught and then any guaranteed money he manages to actually get will be funneled to his victims in huge chunks. I'd hope any massage therapist in Cleveland are smart enough to insist on video recording his massage sessions with the video tape given to him at end of session if nothing untoward occurs. If he does persist in his acts then the tape is evidence against him. If he's as innocent as he claims he would have no objections to this. In fact an innocent man might actually insist on taping such sessions to protect against any false accusations of similar behavior going forward. If he is only after massage legitimately then why doesn't he get some male masseur instead.
  2. Yes any injury to Allen could be devastating to the Bills season. Really can't play timid and afraid of getting injured. Seems like you would get more knicked up playing timidly. What is a bonus to having a QB thats as talented and as fun to watch as Josh is, is the fact that you best believe the nfl refs will be protecting Josh from some extra hits due to his being a top player of the NFL. Plus I think he has lots of respect from players across the league they will compete but don't think the cheap shots occur to the higher profile players as much as when they are trying to establish themselves. Josh got his share of rough hits and possibly a little extra when he hadn't yet proven himself. Now I think he has the respect of players across the league, like Brady has and all the past greats did as well. Opponents want to compete with the best otherwise the game would lose alot of its appeal for any competitive athlete. And they can't do that if they hurt the top players.
  3. Lol, yea letting Josh Cook has a different meaning now. And I think he will feeding the Bills plenty of Feasts this year. Think maybe they will need to add some Off season work next year to allow the guys to drop all the weight they will gain.
  4. Jessica actually has 2 matches back to back tomorrow. Her QF singles match at 7:15 am then after she wins she has to play her QF doubles match at 9:30 am. Don't know what the normal length of time the singles matches last on average but she won't have much of a break between her matches so I hope her stamina is top notch. Would be nice for her to win both singles and doubles at the French Open. I expect if her singles match gets to be a long back and forth battle and goes longer than expected they would adjust the doubles match start time. It would be unfair to have to forfeit her doubles match if she doesn't finish her singles match before the doubles match is set to start. Anyone here follow tennis more closely to know how they deal with such schedule conflicts when they occur?
  5. Never know. You gotta be in the match to have a shot at winning and while her opponent is a good player as well they both gotta play their best games to ensure possible victory. I don't follow tennis much so I don't know if these 2 have played each other before. If not just hope that Iga has some tendencies in her game that Jessica can counter them to seal a victory. Would be nice to have Jessica winning some grand slam titles and rocking Bills gear when she's at her winners press conferences.
  6. Jr Puffin Stuff was a kids show in the late 60s.
  7. I never played Madden but at least there's a decent number of capable qbs in the NFL these days. Wasn't that long ago where there was a huge shortage. Most Bills fans will rate Josh as the best QB currently playing and there is supporting stats that can certainly justify that opinion. Whether or not he ever gets rated as the best in the video game matters not to me. He is going to show all nfl fans he is when he brings the Lombardi to the Buffalo at long last.
  8. A 5 TD Super Bowl performance.
  9. Date under it says it's from 2020. So this isn't a clip from OTAs. Time will tell when White is back to his old self if he does regain his form. Von Miller may have some rehabbing advice for Tre as well since he's recovered from his very nicely.
  10. Yes no one knows what paths their lives will take. If Tre can work through the injury that is wonderful. I'm glad he did get his second contract prior to getting injured as he certainly earned his payday. The fact Tre always had an edge because he studied film on opponents. That gives him a buffer as he regains his physical abilities.
  11. Got no problem with Poyer opting out while he is looking for a new contract. If he got injured that would impact the ability to get a deal done. Once mandatory sessions begin then Poyer has to show up.
  12. Who ever it is that is the fg holder has to have the spare time within the practice sessions to work with the fg unit to get things down which is why they don't use a bu qb these days as they did when Reich was the holder in the glory years. Can't take the already limited reps from the bu qb in practice to have him work with the fg unit to get on same page.
  13. Actually I think Dion and his letter are wrong. He is taking a narrow view imo trying to keep the current success exclusive to only current existing fans. I get that he's probably just trying to convey that he feels strongly about the fans that have been behind the team through good and bad years. However, he has lived in Buffalo long enough he should know to his core that the spirit of Buffalonians is generosity and giving not being self centered and selfish. And yes not allowing a new fan who wants to get on the bandwagon would be extremely selfish. I welcome anyone who wishes to cheer the Bills on. There is plenty of room for everyone that wants to be BillsMafia and I hope some of his teammates pointed that out to him after reading his letter. No need to worry that it will diminish the joy long- suffering fans will have when they bring home the Lombardi. Those of us that lived through the bad times will have more than their fill of these good times.
  14. I was curious about the same thing. Like you not passing judgements but I feel they missed a really golden opportunity to demonstrate that the problem of hate needs everyone working to combat it to remove it as a source that let's these types of atrocities to occur. Make no mistake until everyone is on board to eliminate hate these things won't stop happening. It's why the Black Lives Matter movement has had limited success in preventing things like this from happening. They narrowed the focus too much toward one group of people that attracts the attention of the hate that is the underlying enabler of these acts. I never liked the Black Lives Matter slogan because it was too exclusive to one group of people. I believe it actually hurt progress as it promotes segregation instead of promoting integration. Everyone has to work together to make significant and enduring changes that will benefit everyone not just try to right past wrongs. History cannot be changed but learning from history can prevent repeating it. I have always loved history because it is full of answers to all types of problems if you just dig into similar events as one you are trying to prevent. Events that have been occurring for years now keep me researching history for some answers as to how to start to combat the problems we see that seem to be spreading rather than receding. Lately the poem by Pastor Martin Niemoeller really jumps out to me from previous journeys I made into history I found inspiring and that just screams out with words of wisdom and a path to undertake to make appropriate changes that can lead to the changes we all deserve to see grow and flourish. First they came for the Communists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Communist Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Socialist Then they came for the trade unionists And I did not speak out Because I was not a trade unionist Then they came for the Jews And I did not speak out Because I was not a Jew Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me While the slogan choose love is certainly powerful and a step in the right direction it falls short. Speak out against injustices no matter how trivial they may seem to you because any injustice can create patches of resentment that can fester to create more of these incidents. Injustice isn't exclusive to any group it's in abundance up and throughout life. Failing to speak out will only repeat horrific events. So if Terry and Kim had been front and center with the players and coaches of their pro teams that would have truly been a way to Speak Out.
  15. Yea I never take the losses personally. I am mostly disappointed for the players as they usually have put alot of effort into playing and when they are so fun to watch you like to see them get rewarded.
  16. Yea this. McDermott would have to really lose the players if they go 0-17 and then you have no choice but to make changes. Cannot justify canning him unless it is absolutely obvious there's a coaching-player disconnect that cannot be corrected. We have too much talent in both the players and the staff imho to have such a complete breakdown. I want the Bills to win the Super Bowl of course but really if they do it doesn't really change my fandom and I expect with the talent and the coaching too that all the Bills games will be highly entertaining and that alone is a win for all Bills Mafia. There are many more things in life that are much more critical than whether the Bills bring the Lombardi to Buffalo after this next Super Bowl. I will cheer them on whether or not they are winning. Winning is not a condition to earn my fandom. I'm not a fan of Tom Brady even though he's been a winner more often than not.
  17. Keesler AFB. The triangle area for all in the tech schools there. I was the for approx 10 months myself, 1978 ECM specialist here. What was your specialty?
  18. Billionaire William Buffett I expect he means. Jimmy was drinking margaritas so Jimmy was good at relaxing.
  19. Yea I don't underestimate any team. Any given Sunday is a cliche for a reason. I'm just happy that the Dolphins know their place, which is to help get the Bills ready for the post season by them some legit competition for the Bills to practice on.
  20. A big reason guys like Tannehill don't pan out is this very trait of being afraid of competition to your starting qb position. If you are afraid a young gun may outplay you then its pretty clear that they probably can. I just can't imagine Josh ever not coaching up a young qb even when the time comes that he is outplayed. Josh will pass on the starter job gracefully but it is much easier to accept after the first ballot HoF career he will have posted first. Likely he'll just announce his retirement at the end of his last megadeal. He probably had input on the rookie they drafted 2 yrs prior that they had been grooming to take over.
  21. It's like Bill is planning to retire soon and wants to leave the Pats with no good players to rebuild when he leaves. Kinda seems like maybe there's some payback for Kraft backing Brady when there was talk of playing garrapolo. Just seems like some behind the scenes stuff is getting settled.
  22. Can't fault him for padding his bank balance. Let him earn what he can as well as adding to the years he gets credit for his nfl pension once he does retire.
  23. Yea I saw he signed there. Hope he can avoid serious injury. Not sure it's worth the risk myself but it is his decision.
  24. Well he may have had to sign a waiver in case of some catastrophic injury. Let's not pretend that college football programs really concern themselves over the long term health of their athletes. I'm sure there are NFL teams where they wouldn't be overly concerned, but then again might be behind the scenes that the NFL won't want to risk any catastrophic injuries that could cause paralysis or death. Could be argued there's that risk now for any player but maybe when the odds are raised due to a known condition it becomes an unacceptable risk.
