Yes, we do, for different things in the community where we actually go hands on, like working at a homeless shelter. We also donate about $10k (total) every December to a bunch of deserving orgs. But the best thing (to me) that we do is occasionally pick up the tabs at a restaurant for random, unsuspecting people, like a young couple, or a single parent with their kids, or a really old couple. It feels really good when you see their faces. We are blessed and fortunate to be able to do all of the above. As they say, you can’t take it with you, and also, when you die, nobody is going to remember how much wealth you had, but plenty of people will remember how you helped them out.

You remember at that time, licenses were just ink jet printed on thick paper (not even as stout as business cards…LOL), and not laminated. Sssssoooo, clever, thirsty young rebels could very carefully use a pencil eraser to change the DOB on your license, and wallah, no waiting til age 18!

Saw him a handful of times in concert, and it was always a great show. Very sad day for country music fans. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/toby-keith-dies-country-singer-stomach-cancer-rcna137412

Was born in 1960. All I can tell you is that the 70s and 80s were a great time to be growing up. I was recently reminiscing with a childhood friend, and he stated "at the time, we didn’t know how good we had it." He was 100% spot on. Use the Google machine to find more info about the greatness of that time. 😉

Will not be watching. Just don't care, and just can't take any more of the Chiefs, Mahomes, Reid, and #87 & his girlfriend & his family.

This is like when you see some commercial for some newfangled drug on TV, and in the “warning” portion of the spot the voice over guy says “do not take (drug name) if you are allergic to (drug name).” LOL

Honestly, it’s BOTH lack of talent AND average coaching. As has been noted many times, a HS coach could get the Bills to the playoffs with JA17 at QB. I was fooling around on the google machine earlier this week and saw that when Dorsey was a QB at the University of Miami, he set all kinds of school records, and his W-L record over 4 years was 38-2! They won one national championship and came close to a second, but were beat by Ohio State. I did not know all of the latter til this week.

Watched it, and it was definitely a nice editing job, and nicely done. It doesn’t really get in to offering any reasons why Allen (really should be focusing on McDummy more) can't get over the hump, and get to the SB. In here, the posters have offered up many reasons why this is so, while this video just sort of intimates that because of some magic spell Mahomes has, he always beats Allen.

Yes, whenever you disagree with someone's opinion, they must be a troll. 🙄

I think the point he was making was that he thought (as I did) that the Bills were going to keep winding the clock down, and get a TD there, NOT a FG, and leave KC just seconds on the clock, with no timeouts left for them, were they'd have to get the kickoff and go get a TD to win it.

Just rewatching the 4th qtr. of this game....I know, I know, I'm a masochist. LOL - Absolutely NO replays were shown of the Bills fake punt. WTH? - Shakir *could* have caught that long rainbow bomb on 3rd and 12 with 10:50 left, but that would have been a spectacular diving catch - Bills' Defense did step up and play well on the next drive, just before the Bills' O got the ball for the last time - Now that I now what Seven Nation Army is, I see that CBS played it as they went to commercial with 8:23 left. LOL - It looks like Diggs DID see the long bomb in plenty of time, and just plain did not catch it - KC DB Reed went helmet to helmet with a pretty vicious hit on Diggs on an incompletion. Could have easily been called a PF, but wasn’t - Bills were VERY lucky to retain possession when JA fumbled on a 3rd down run with 5:35 left 1st down at the 27 with 3:00 left and clock ticking - Run with Cook up the middle...got 1 yard 2:00 warning - Pass into the EZ for Shakir on 2nd down....Incomplete. I know what was said all last week about Chris Jones pushing Dawkins into JA, but honestly, Dawkins barely touches JA; does not look that minimal contact affected the throw at all. Curious, did JA ever address that throw in his post game presser? - Pass thrown OOB on the right side on 3rd down as coverage was very good and JA rolled to the right side. His best option was across the field on the left side, but he didn’t look that way - Missed FG by Bass - Pacheco runs 2x and gets a 1st down; game over It totally SUCKS that the Bills were right there, but couldn't continue the drive to get the TD.

The seller wanted cash, and also, there have been cases of fake cashiers checks too…Google it. Now, I suppose if we had met at a BofA branch, they could have verified it, but we met at an IHOP in Athens, GA, and I had traveled up there from FL (in car with wife/I drove new bike home).

I am right there with you. Reasons: I don’t care who wins. NFL officiating is terrible, and it may affect the outcome. I can go online anytime after the game to see the commercials. My normal bedtime is 9:30pm (get up at 5:20am). Staying up for all those late Bills games this past season was very challenging. LOL I am ssssooooo sick of seeing KC, and especially sick of the attention that is given to one certain KC player & his girlfriend. After a certain point in the season (after the Bills are knocked out), the NFL is nauseating.

Good watch, but isn’t the current narrative that good offenses can pretty much move the ball down the field at will? This video says that the defenses have the upper hand.

Most banks don't even have a lot of money on hand. I found this out when I went to buy a motorcycle with cash. I went to my local Bank of America branch on a Friday and wanted to take out $16,000. Naturally, I assumed that they had loads of cash back in the vault, but apparently they don’t. They said we can't give you the $16k because it's payday, and we don't want to give away that much cash on a payday. I ended up having to go to three different branches to scrape together the $16k. LOL They said in the future, if you want a lot of cash, place an order for it beforehand.

I’m pretty sure that they don’t even play a real game anymore. Just from reading this thread, I guess they play some flag football and have a skills competition? As far as JA not going, I do agree that personally, I too would rather be playing at Pebble Beach than going to this sideshow, but….it is a snub to the NFL, AND also to fans who certainly would like to see him there. My feeling is that it just doesn’t look good. The pro bowl date is known months before it happens, and good players know they may be tapped to go, so they should keep that date open and be ready to go.

I heard that his favorite band is Journey…

Wait a minute now, playing Devils advocate, and echoing the narrative of many people in media, the rabid fans of Taylor Swift more than makeup for the fans they’re losing by elevating a small market team (KC) to the SB. Do you realize how many “followers” TS has across her many social media platforms? It’s in the tens of millions! Plus I’m sure their parents (who fund their TS devotion) are jumping on the NFL bandwagon too! I’m seeing the latter narrative all over the place! LOL Note: 80% of this post is sarcasm.

Not sure I really could get into any of them without being accused of posting "politics", and possibly getting banned. LOL

If I had a dollar for every "conspiracy theory" from the last 50 years that turned out to be true, I'd have a lot of dollars.

As I said in another thread in this forum on this topic, the notion that young teen/20 something girls are all of a sudden watching ALL three hours of an NFL game just so they can see a few seconds of TS in a suite is absurd. And I don’t think they’re buying up tickets at Chiefs games either. Yes, many of these rabid TS fans probably did run out and but Chiefs gear, because they are young and easily manipulated, but I don’t think those sales amount to anywhere near $330 million. Really not sure why the networks who show NFL games keep showing her and hyping their relationship. Plenty of NFL players have dated celebrity women, but they never got the coverage that TS is getting.

There’s always next year!

I agree with you here, but the most amazing thing about that play is that they picked up the flag and said no PI on Detroit, when it did indeed look like blatant PI on Detroit.

I’d be very curious to know how they came up with that $331 million figure. What exactly is “brand value?” I’m sure that tons of her rabid fans ran out and bought #87 Chiefs jerseys, and maybe other Chiefs apparel & merchandise, but I can’t imagine that adding up to $331 million. And I seriously doubt that they’re attending games and/or watching the games on TV for 3 hours so that they can catch a few shots of her. And does anybody really think that the Moms of all these teenage girls have now also become NFL fans just because their daughters are Swifites? I don’t. It seems really forced by the major networks, and I’m wondering why. PLENTY of NFL players have/have had hot/famous significant others, but the flaunting of them was/is nowhere near what this is. And of course, most NFL fans are just sick and tired of it, and just want to see the action on the field.

Did you get that I was poking fun at Romo, as he says “I want you to watch….”, about 10 times per game? 😂
