  1. That the same owners that hired Rex Ryan were able to hire Sean McDermott. Gives me hope in humanity that someone could admit they were wrong and try a different strategy.
  2. Because repeating the same source on this site is an indication of accuracy? There have been plenty of "restructurings" that have not been what was initially reported. I hope it means an actual "pay cut" but that is pretty rare.
  3. Have you seen any numbers that explains how much money Star will put in his bank account this year and next? I've only seen salary cap numbers, which are different.
  4. Until we see what exactly Star gets to deposit into his bank account there is no reason to believe any player would agree to a pay cut. As far as I can tell, the numbers thrown around are only discussing how the restructuring effects the Bills salary cap, which is different than what each player actually takes home each year.
  5. It's not a pay cut. Star not only gets paid, he gets paid more guaranteed money right now. Restructuring only provides the Bills salary cap flexibility in the short term. This also means Star is not going anywhere and will likely be on the team through 2021.
  6. Absurbist for sure. Bet you could watch an episode three times and not catch all the verbal and visual jokes. One of the writers, Megan Amgran, posted her list of she had for one show:
  7. Agree, "The Night of" is excellent. Good story and characters. As it turns out, the writer/show running for "The Night Of" and "The Outsider" is the same person, Richard Price. The detective in TNO (Bill Camp) is also in The Outsider.
  8. They've only had 5 episodes. Seems strange it's only halfway done. I don't watch previews (and any trailers) as I like to be surprised.
  9. It's a show that could easily have gone off the rails but I agree, after 5 episodes the Outsider continues to hold my attention. I'm curious how/if they'll sustain through the full 10 episodes as I thought it could be a 6 or 7 part show. (I hate programs that drag as I tend to abandon ship).
  10. Do yourself a favor. Don’t read anything about it. Spoilers will truly spoil the show.
  11. Most spaghetti westerns had a dark side, this show took less risks than a 50s afternoon western sponsored by Corn Flakes and the Lutheran Church.
  12. The Good Place is one of favorite shows of all-time. Smart, hilarious, clever, full of surprises and kept evolving. Ended it’s four year run with a perfect and very satisfying conclusion. Highly recommend.
  13. I thought it was dull and unimaginative. Not much difference between the “plot” and 1950s serial western. Save the village, another shoot out, jailbreak, etc. and every episode had a double-cross (and sometimes a triple-cross) and somehow the Madalorian never sees them coming. Blah.
  14. Keith Moon is mesmerizing.
  15. Who Live at Leeds is my favorite live album. A shame there wasn't a video recording.
  16. He's not the messiah but a very silly boy. He was a great one.
  17. One of my 2019 favorites. It could have been low-brow schlock but they created complex characters while making it entertaining and hilarious without using forced melodrama to propel the story. IMO, Eddie Murphy deserved the Gold Globe Award.
  18. Controversy is the only way to make that thing relevant.
  19. In an amusing way ya kinda missed the gist of the conversation.
  20. Uh, that post means we agree. Agree, he's excellent but glad Hyde no longer has that injury risk.
  21. Though I am upset the Bills plan to give $20M/yr to Jason Peters and not even try to sign Judon for $8M/year.
  22. For me (and suspect the Bills staff) looks at the current roster like this: Roberts/Extremely Reliable Returner>>>>>>>>>>>>>>WR5 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>WR6
  23. Serious question: What do you believe makes him "Make" or "Break" - and do you think that is different from most fans, and more important, from the Bills Execs and Coaches? There are so many factors to determine success it would make my head hurt. Wins is one but as we've seen repeatedly this season, stats don't necessarily translate into team success.
  24. Should be easier to accept if fans think of Roberts as a specialist: Long snapper, kicker, punter, etc. We don't expect Ferguson to be a center, he's the long snapper. I'll never understand why reliable returners are so undervalued when each week is littered with losses due to poor special teams.
  25. It's amusing how worked up folks get over a rumor.
