Sierra Foothills

Now you got me wondering if anyone's ever put kale in ice cream. We're not too far from Gilroy, CA which is the self-dubbed "Garlic Capitol of the World" and they have garlic ice cream for the Garlic Festival... which was resurrected this year for the first time since the shooting back in... 2020? Anyways, garlic ice cream... haven't tried it yet.

It would be kinda funny if Stafford fell off a stage.

TO had juice even in the final year of his 15 year career. In his last year with the Bengals (after his one season with the Bills) he had 72 receptions for 983 yards (13.7 ypc) and 9 TDs. From a pure physical ability standpoint he could have played longer.

I love cale in a salad and cod in a fish fry but it's hard for me to imagine them in a frozen confection.

I'm limited... as always.

And why does he have to golf? One sport should be enough for him... he needs to get his head in the playbook.

Great football player and unfairly treated by the media.

My minor contribution to this topic is that I just can't see Olufoshio making the team. I'm intrigued by both Keonta Jenkins and Jimmy Ciarlo. "Jenkins had his most productive NCAA season as a fifth-year player. He lined up as the “Star” in Virginia Tech’s defense, which is essentially a hybrid role as a nickel corner/safety/outside linebacker. He totaled 65 tackles, 10 tackles for loss, one sack, one interception, two forced fumbles, and four pass breakups in 12 games." He put up impressive numbers at his pro day with a 40-yard dash in 4.58 seconds, three-cone drill in 7.18 seconds, 34.5” vertical jump and 9’10” broad jump. He bench-pressed 225 pounds a total of nine times." Ciarlo was one of Army's Captains. "Ciarlo signed with the Jets after going undrafted in the 2024 NFL Draft. He was not invited to the NFL Scouting Combine, but he displayed solid athleticism at Army’s Pro Day. He ran the 40-yard dash in 4.66 seconds, did the three-cone drill in 6.97 seconds, and ran the 20-yard shuttle in 4.35 seconds. He benched 225 pounds a total of 34 times, leapt 10’ in the broad jump, and jumped 36” in the vertical leap test." Both of these guys had productive seasons in college and have above average measurables. They both seem to have some intangibles too.

Digging pretty deeply now... other prominent and excellent NFL Films voices were Hall of Fame announcer Harry Kalas who was the voice of the Phillies for over 30 years, and a person longtime Buffalo sports fans might recall, Jefferson Kaye, who worked at WKBW and WBEN radio.

He's probably the exception, not the rule.

You are far from alone on this. A huge percentage of baby boomers were indoctrinated into NFL fandom via NFL Films. The glare of their productions were a huge reason that the NFL became America's Passion, eclipsing America's Pastime.

Also I believe that former Packer great Darren Sharper played WR in college.

Facenda has been referred to as "The Voice of God."

It was only an attempt at humor, T. Sorry. 👍

Must be all those UFL games you watch. Well at least he doesn't have a pelvic injury. Can you repeat the question please?

T.O. already has the keys to the city...

I wish they still made Republicans like Jack Kemp. Maybe they could just take one of the turnstiles out of the old stadium and place it on a marble pedestal... Or Rob Johnson running out of bounds for a loss... that might have to be more than one statue though.

You're apparently the only person on earth who didn't know that Bass was suffering from a pelvic injury. Of course the posters here have been very respectful, tasteful, and restrained on the subject. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Seriously though, I agree about the Travis Hunter trade. IMO, his impact as a WR will be limited by his defensive snaps and visa-versa. Between playing the two positions there's just too much running involved. If he divides snaps between the two positions his contribution will be limited IMO. If they try to play him more snaps than a "normal player" I think he'll be open to injury and fatigue. I wouldn't have made that trade if I were Jacksonville. Quick show of hands... how many of you guys are sporting these mansiers? Just curious.

To the bolded, you should look at the poll results.

Yes, for those wondering it's 1 hour and 34 minutes long. He might change his mind... you never know.

"We've decided we're gonna go eat somewhere else..."

I too am surprised Babich wasn't a choice and also Ralph should be somewhere in there (he's cheap).

Yes, Dwight Harrison... number 28. Excellent athlete.

*****! I just bought 2 PSLs yesterday!!!

Fixed it for ya! "Plus" meaning above average, I predict that Bosa, Rousseau, Oliver, Sanders, and Walker are plus pass rushers. It might be that Solomon and Hoecht are too. I think there's too much here to not be a good pass rush team in 2025 and I think you'll see a lot more inside pressure from the Bills this year, and that's the best kind. I agree. Here are the Bills sack totals in the McDermott era: 2024: 39 2023: 54 2022: 40 2021: 42 2020: 38 2019: 44 2018: 36 2017: 27 The Bills have averaged exactly 40 sacks/season during his tenure. I'm gonna go out on a limb and predict 50 sacks this season.
