He looked really good the TC practices I went to - caught everything

AJs trade stock going up 🤫

K Allen doesn't seem to put any air under his longer throws

Visiting my Dad in Buffalo, sit down to watch the game and channel 4 unavailable on his direct TV bc os some kind of negotiation/dispute. Jfc. Going to try a trial for nfl+

Do you feel the same way about AJ?

Yeah I was watching 49ers game last night and Lance actually looked pretty good (of course qualifying air quotes "against the threes") There is talent there

Yes - it's part of his "thing" - just like Nathan Fielder's offbeat personality is part of his thing

Well I don't see a reason for them to hide it - and as people have noted he wasn't exactly exploding through those movements

Yes - all the people jazzed up that he was ready to go weeks ago bc he was sprinting in a straight line - it's the lateral movement that matters w/ acl, and seems like he has just started doing that. Build that up slowly but surely

Two things - First video I've seen of Von since his knee of him doing lateral movements not just straight line - A tweet about Dodson from practice that doesn't involve a fight?

I posted some details from the article in the 'Big Sweaties' thread

This seems as good a place as any - The Athletic just released an article on Van Denmark https://theathletic.com/4797703/2023/08/22/ryan-van-demark-buffalo-bills-roster-tackle/ The net is that he has been unheralded his whole football career - undrafted FA got cut by Colts last year then signed to Bills PS (ironically Colts picking up Luke Tenuta on waivers from Bills, who they subsequently cut, opened up a spot) - and has started to put it together in his 2nd year. With Shell's retirement and Doyle going down he's getting a lot more opportunity to play both sides and challenge/unseat Ques ... ... Oh - and he used to be a baby model

I used the student discount when my kids were in college - for me at first they checked and I had to send proof, but after a while they just kept renewing it even after my kids graduated - from their perspective my kids were in college for like 8 years 😛 I assume the last years they knew they were done when their contract ran out so they were just trying to get any revenue they could

After following our last house being built and all the incompetent idiots associated with the builder and contractors, I drive through my neighborhood in wonderment that every day a house doesn't explode, flood, or combust

Ep 3 - Thought Cobb's comments to receivers about Rodgers was the most interesting part of the series so far - "It's all cool right now but I'm telling you one day he's gonna lose his sh!t" "If he don't trust you he's not going to throw you the ball. He does not like to throw interceotions - so if he can't trust you're going to run the right route he's not going to throw it" - Saleh's reading his Competitor speech off the monitor - nice editing to make it seem like everyone was taking notes and awestruck by this great orator of our time - Woody takes his jacket off to show his chain - cringe - Saleh 7 kids holy crap - Rookie show do-over - cringe

Whenever I see this topic title I immediately think London Fletcher

At least the poor start has shut up the obnoxious lady bills fan behind who wouldn't stop screaming before we sucked

Anyone know if there is a parking lot / tailgate location at stadium Bills fans are congregating

We are staying at Embassy Suites right downtown (few blocks from market square) starting Fri night. Any recommendations within walking distance?

You watch those panel shows now and you can just picture the pre-production meetings - "OK for this question who is going to just pick the most outlandish take to generate outrage and twitter posts" It really has become ridiculous - unwatchable And Sportscenter anchors OMG - the constant ridiculous banter and trying sooo hard to be witty/goofy, and always failing - it is nauseating at times. I can't even watch highlights anymore without wanting to mute.

Think they are holding back how they use Kincaid in the preseason - last game he was mostly just asked to block. Unleash him on the Jets

In Ep 2 Rodgers comes off complaining that a certain play doesn't work out of a certain formation and they showed a shot of Saleh who looked like a little scolded schoolboy. It may just be editing, but they make is seem like Rodgers is the alpha over everyone including the head coach. Sometimes Saleh and other coaches come off as giddy fans.

College was also like TV blackout for me. I said in the Paul Reubens RIP thread there were two shows I watched - we used to get up hungover Sat morning and gather to watch Pee Wee's Playhouse, and used to watch George Michael Sports Machine on Sun night. Do you remember what the jokes were you sent in?

Ep 2 - Nice to see the Rodgers infomercial continue - Saleh's punchable face quotient rising (if that's possible) - Every time I see Hackett first thought is "clown show" - Wow Bryce looks like a little kid - Nice peek at joint practice into how things will go once the pressure starts coming - Let's hope their season goes as bad as their rookie show

Yeah was kind of a cautionary, open-ended ending - after all his substance issues to have the last shot of him sitting there with his boys drinking a beer. I did think he came of really well in the interview portions
