Redskins and Tua at pick 2 - Smokescreen or real?
Bill from NYC replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Great point. I learned many years ago that there are people who are extremely wealthy in spite of themselves. -
Favorite fast food places not available in WNY
Bill from NYC replied to Jrb1979's topic in Off the Wall Archives
I think that Anderson's in WNY is just so good that they really don't need any more fast food places. If they opened on Long Island with the same quality they would be multi-millionaires. Ted's is also insanely great. Fast food is much better upstate than down here. Did Chick fil a come up there yet? That is the best we have down this way and they do more business than one could imagine. -
I do not dislike Dak. In fact, I touted him on this board when he was coming out of Mississippi State. He fell way down in the draft because of a dui, which was uncharacteristic for the kid. That said, I don't know if I would pay him 35 million guaranteed for a few years. That would seem to be a very high risk. As for comparing him to Josh, Dak is also a very tough guy and does have talent. Josh is a better physical specimen and has a much higher ceiling. I'm not sure that Cousins isn't already at his ceiling.

I am afraid that I must strongly disagree. Josh has 10x the arm, is stronger, and more athletic than those 2 combined. Josh had so much talent that he was taken at #7 from a small football school. I admit that Josh could bust out. I mean it is possible. That said, his ceiling is the Empire State Building. Kirk Cousins is a fancy journeyman. No, I do not hope that Josh turns out as good as Cousins, but twice as good would seem almost OK.

I'm not like them, but I can pretend. The sun is gone, but I have a light. The day is done, but I'm having fun. I think I'm dumb, or maybe just happy. Think I'm just happy.

Great news! Now there is perhaps less of a chance of a first round DB. -

Rex himself displayed star quality by just leaving. -

Redskins and Tua at pick 2 - Smokescreen or real?
Bill from NYC replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Good point H2o. My post did omit the fact that imo, Tua will be a far better QB than Dwayne. Again, imo he could make Snyder millions upon millions of dollars. -
Redskins and Tua at pick 2 - Smokescreen or real?
Bill from NYC replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm not sure why you would think this. If Tua plays well, he will be a top 10 fan favorite in the league or higher, and I'm saying immediately. Have you ever seen him in a press conference? He is like the world's nicest person. Seriously, I have seen his entire career, to include every play he has been in and most interviews. Tua is a brilliant, religious, good natured kid. Trent Dilfer said that he is the smartest young QB he has ever seen. This injury was just so sad, but he is getting the best medical care on earth, and so far/so good. The Bengals have to take Burrow, an Ohio kid. Period. The Skins would be crazy not to take Tua unless they receive an insane Mike Ditka/Ricky Williams trade offer. Jmo. -
Well my mind is going through them changes I think I'm going out of my mind Every time you see me going some where I think I could commit a crime know She had me running She had me crying She had me running She had me, had me, had me crying She had me running She had me crying She had me running Had me crying

Only you know and I know All the love we've got to show, So don't refuse to believe it By reading too many meanings. 'Cause you know that I mean what I say, So don't go and take me the wrong way. You know you can't go on getting your own way, 'Cause if you do, it's going to get you someday.

Banking off of the northeast winds Sailing on a summer breeze And skipping over the ocean like a stone Everybody's talking at me Can't hear a word they're saying Only the echoes of my mind I won't let you leave my love behind No, I won't let you leave I won't let you leave my love behind

What is BCBS? OK but this is progress. It will get better, I promise you. You have to pray and suffer through it and it will be well worth it.

Yeah, I have not changed my mind wrt first round DBs. Even the good ones often turn out to be bad picks for the team, no? I would be happy with Ruggs but it is very hard to scout this group of Alabama receivers. Jeudy clearly drew the most coverage and there were at least 4 fantastic receivers on the team. This obviously made it difficult to double Ruggs, Smith or Waddle. Hopefully our scouting team will make the right call. As for Jennings, I would like to see him run a step faster but he is strong, has good moves, and is very smart. I can't see him getting past round 2 but I sure have been wrong before.

Counting stars by candlelight all are dim but one is bright The spiral light of Venus rising first and shining best On, from the northwest corner of a brand new crescent moon While crickets and cicadas sing a rare and different tune Terrapin station In the shadow of the moon, terrapin station And I know we'll be there soon, terrapin I can't figure out, terrapin if it's the end or beginning, terrapin But the train's put it's brakes on, terrapin And the whistle is screaming, terrapin
