I had this experience after HS playing pickup basketball at Lancaster Boy's Club one college break and Don 'Majik Man' Majkowski was playing with us. I played against him in HS and in pickup games back then (and he was a great HS multi-sport athlete) but by this time he was playing at W Va and holy crap had his athleticism reached grown-ass-man levels. When the dude came down and tomahawked a slam dunk like white chocolate thunder we all kind of just stood there like "OK". He took it easy on us the rest of the way :p. You know all these guys are great athletes but sometimes seeing it first hand and up close can take your breath away

Just caught new S&C coach Will Greenberg on Eric Wood's Centered on Bufffalo podcast. Found it very interesting

I assume you're referring to Stat Boy I remember watching PTI when he was just stat boy. Its kind of an amazing story how they called him to fill in at ATH the day after the SB since every other 'big name' at the network was off covering the SB - and he did so well he just kept the gig. Reali is known for as being extremely positive and generous on and off the air and think he is a genuinely good dude. I give him credit for purposely turning the show from just a yelling match when Kellerman started to something a bit more structured and even thoughtful at times. Not sure why some people get so bent about the scoring thing - there really wasn't any specific system - just him going by feel - was just a device to add more entertainment (what if friends were debating sports at a bar and someone was sitting there scoring them on who was making the best points). Last few days I've watched all his interviews as he made the rounds. Even if I didn't watch it religiously lately it was to me still a fun distraction when I did (esp day after some major sports story). It's sad to see something that was part of your life for decades go away (for no apparent good reason - was still one of the highest rated shows on the network). I wish Reali well - he seems to have moved past acceptance phase and already is making moves to move forward with other projects/platforms.

Or it finished him 😛

I agree - it is also I think much more superficial now where they don't really try to create as many "dramatic" story lines or dig as deep into the ones they do make (which I'm sure is partly done to try to make it less objectionable to prospective teams)

I love you Josh Allen!

Random question - will the parking lots for the SNF game open 4 hrs before kickoff like every other game (ie open at 4:20 in this case?)

Technically the proper use of 'Belinda' is at the end of the thread title - as a substitute for NM for 'No Message' - with no text in the body of the message. As others have indicated - it was used to basically troll a user named Belinda in the old days who was very outspoken on her hatred for users creating threads with NM in the title and no message text - so of course the creation of such messages increased dramatically at the time - with the replacement of NM with Belinda to amplify the wise-assery 😛

So was Josh not on? I DVR'ed it and my cable glitched so only the 1st hour got recorded. I just tuned in to 'Today 3rd Hour' with Jim Gaffigan plugging... his Bourbon?

In Beane's PC he said he'd play both - their approach to Dline is similar to OL where they are looking for versatility. As has been discussed in some threads - in the Bills scheme a 1 tech is not necessarily just a 400lb block of goo that can't be moved, they are looking for pass rush/penetration from all positions along the line

I posted in draft day thread: ESPN very positive almost effusive on Lundt - Mel - Run blocker, Love this kid, can get out and pull, get out on the perimeter, get the job done on the 2nd level, Love finisher mentality, As pass blocker the footwork and technique is good, Chase Lundt has talent, good athletic ability, Best is yet to come, showed what he can do this year as both a run and pass blocker, Josh Allen's gonna like Chase Lundt coming into the fold, Lot of skills and lot of potential moving forward Riddick: That's the prototype developmental OT, he has the athletic ability now just build around that frame, the movement skills, the understanding of how the position is to be played, the footwork, the angles, they may have really really hit on something there in the 6th rd

ESPN officially gone off the deep end - reveals Mel doesn't eat in front of other people

"Walker certainly benefits from the “planet theory” — there are only so many humans walking the earth who have his combination of size, strength and sweet feet." - that's a great quote

Funny bc we moved in front of Philly and they just drafter a DT

In his PC Beane said "it's harder to find inside rush than 2 down nose - those guys - you can go in free agency now and find those"

We have the MVP

It's better than marching out a girls flag football team

What does Logic say 😛

People who say "he probably would have been there if we didn't trade down" don't understand that usually the team moving has reason to believe that player is targeted by another team in front

And apparently the shoulder was mostly due to an infected needle - not injury prone bc small

Didnt realize the missed time from shoulder "injury" was mostly because of an infected needle at the hospital - that's crazy

At his PC Beane said he already has gained some weight and is "in the 190's" Was confident some time with Bills staff would add muscle without sacrificing speed

Bills gonna line him up for go routes on O - who needs Hunter- 4d chess

Ha - I heard Buffalo too - had to rewind - she said "Buckle-up"
