  1. HEY!!!!!!!! ...oh what I am I going to do. When a man is right, he is right. Yeah, Roy, it just got messed up because the thread had a previous different title, but the mods didn't like it. In short, it was a comparison between the problems that AB was and the essential quiet we have with Diggs.
  2. 1-6, I believe, as he is 9-0 when he does. possibly 1-7 if you include the playoffs, but I don't know his playoff numbers. ...so...I, for one, would like to see him hit that over 60% mark a lot.
  3. Yes. Besides the 30 TDs, 9-0 in games where he completes 60% of his passes, and mass improvement over his rookie year where he was considered a project even at #7, 4th quarter comebacks that I have actually lost track of and the playoffs...sure. ...now, would you like some milk before you take your goofy pills?
  4. He has been looking so good...BUT...I really don’t need to see him doing anymore hard cuts. I get anxiety every time I see him do it. I’d like to see him next in a large roll of bubble wrap before the start of the season.
  5. [won't make sense anymore, but that's fine] ...neither did I. Just a reminder: Don’t do “crazy” just because...
  6. Cool. Oh, not to high jack this thread, can we also piggy back on it a chaser question, "Which Buffalo Bills' knee is going to explode before the start of the season?"? Asking for a friend.
  7. 2020...yeah, I think it is going to be "My Year". Hell, I think it is going to be EVERYBODY'S YEAR. LET'S TOAST!!
  8. I am truly sorry for him and his family. Embarrassingly, though, I am feeling sorry for myself, as well. I know many of these people, I watched them as younger men when I was growing up...and more and more they are disappearing. i don’t hate growing older, at all. I just hate all the good-byes.
  9. Side Note: Boy was Esther Rolle a good actress (RIP). When Amos, a good actor in his own right, left or was fired in a contract dispute she had to carry the moral center of the show, mostly alone. This was back in the day when comedies also had a lot of drama, and you needed good thespians to bring that home. She did, and then some.
  10. Hap, I am leaving my comments in below just for full disclosure. However, the comments made here, in bold afterwards, are based upon other things you’ve written, and posts and other threads by our members on this board. Unfortunately, the “food for thought” you and others have provided make me less confident in my position on playing. we need to know more and I am not out by any stretch. But 90% confidence is now down to...50. just wanted to let you know. thank you, Hap. I get your point as it was made. however, it doesn’t have to rely upon my assumptions with respect to the rest of what I said, which I don’t think falls apart. Even in what you quoted me on I heavily weighted my original statement, and at the start. So...just plain removing those assumptions in their entirety, we still: monitor and take precautions. Likely even greater precautions as given the concerns over inhalation/exhalation, possible additions face mask coverings, but not as to inhibit respiration. This is just a suggestion. as far as the rest of what I said, I stand by it, minus even the earlier comments. “With those this still becomes people being responsible for taking proper care and proper measures. Meaning, if a player gets sick I think there is a greater likelihood it happens in their everyday life as opposed to players who will almost daily be under scrutiny regarding their health. So if it happens in their everyday life its not much different than anything else that might happen. It's morning.. Time for practice. Do you have a fever? Yes. Good-bye. that stinks, but that's it. You can come back when you've been cleared. I just don't see one Buffalo Bill having it, which then turns into 60% of the team having it. We know better now and we are more cautious now. I don't see the benefit, on any angle, to just wrap things up for the season because of what could be and what we might not like, as opposed to taking precautions and letting the teams that are able to hit the field, hit the field. ...if we want to put an asterisks by it at the end of the season, we can...please, we have done that before. I just don't think that at this stage a whole season or people's way of life should be sacrificed because of the scales being tipped.“
  11. Even if you can’t stand the buffalo Bills...they are the favorite. Even if you just think they are lucky...they have made the playoffs twice in three years with different teams and added more talent this year. Even if you write for a newspaper...doesn’t mean you can’t be moron. ...sometimes it’s a prerequisite.
  12. It's a great point Logic, but I still go back to my point in way...does everything get cancelled because of what you referenced above, or do you just deal with it because that's what you do? If we can assume (just play along with me here) that as recent studies have shown that 1) you are less likely to get COVID from hard surfaces and, more importantly, 2) you are unlikely to get it from those that are asymptomatic. With those this still becomes people being responsible for taking proper care and proper measures. Meaning, if a player gets sick I think there is a greater likelihood it happens in their everyday life as opposed to players who will almost daily be under scrutiny regarding their health. So if it happens in their everyday life its not much different than anything else that might happen. It's morning.. Time for practice. Do you have a fever? Yes. Good-bye. that stinks, but that's it.

  13. Or those two players can separate themselves for 2 weeks. It gets to this whole debate, which transcends sports: does everyone have to be quarantined or just the sick? I believe, especially at this point, we all have to take safety precautions, but when some get sick everything should not be shut down.
  14. No disrespect to Cook or other players, but McCaffrey is so stupidly good that’s a tall ask for all but a couple of players in this league.
  15. ganesh...yeah...man, yeah. People might bring this up as an anecdote, but I think it is much more than just that. I need the combination of a better offensive line, and a two headed monster at RB, to go along with the addition of Diggs this year. This year? I meant to say 94 days from now.
  16. The guy is 89 years old, has all his wits about him, and is still generating cash...which all three stats pretty much knocks everybody on this board out of the box. Otherwise, please point me to the 90 year members here who don't carry their marbles around in an old sack and are worth hundreds of millions as opposed to tens of millions.
  17. I know this is tangential, but I'd rather see this being pot than drinking and driving.
  18. I have to check all the figures but The Wiz may have won the internet yesterday.
  19. Knowing what we know now, and what Whaley and company should have known then, I don’t know how you look to the left and see Khalil Mack on your board, then look right and see Sammy Watkins and then say, “Yeah...oh hell yeah, I’ll trade those two number 1s for th guy on the right!” I was initially ok with the Sammy pick. However, I’ve stated here before that when they made the trade I thought for sure it was to get Mack.
  20. Few words...and that's all that was needed. A home run is only a single swing. Nicely put, HUDs.
  21. HUDS...I was 13 rows back, Denver side, 40 plus yard line...it was...so gloriously loud. I was with my brother Pat and after the block and the run back I just thought to myself, "Man...there is just no way we are losing this game." God it was such a magical time. Heck, even before that, even in earlier seasons. Frank Reich comes in for three straight in 89, including a ridiculous comeback win against the Rams (Thursday or Monday night, at home, I can't remember). There are such story book moments from 88-93. Even in '95, and please forgive me for this and I wished the Great Coach RIP last week, but the trouncing of Miami, at home, in the playoffs that sent Shula into retirement...I think leaving Levy as the all time winning-est coach against him (something like 15-5).
  22. Riot, I am not going to jump on you especially since my pick was 11-5, but just FYI, the Bills are 3-0 against the Pats in the last three games Brady has been either out or didn’t play a half.
  23. Wow...I guess no one is going to be home watching tv in September. Edit: you have never seen tv ratings for football like you are going to see this fall. I’m also thinking the networks are going to take advantage of that, too, with the ad buys. Let’s also throw in the fact that tv original series production will be much delayed and that leaves you with the only new thing on tv since the end of this tv season will be the NFL. ...this is owners pondering and bracing to put the kibosh on the players.
