  1. You would be well served to cut out the attitude of superiority. Some of your posts over the years have made little to no sense, yet you seem to constantly demand that we all fall in line behind your views, however stupid. Your screen name even points to childish behavior. Hey.....why don't we simply block each other? Trust me, it will be no loss on this end. Yeah, the picks of Milano and Davis were as good as picking Josh Allen. You should have your own syndicated talk show with pearls of wisdom like this. 😁🤣😂
  2. If you think that they made that trade with Josh Allen specifically in mind, that is fine but imo, highly unlikely. Unlike at least one person in this thread, I do not demand or even expect others to have to agree with me. The good news is that Josh is a HOF talent and i enjoy watching him grow and excel. Perhaps there will be a day when I look at Bills Management as a paradigm of football excellence. I'm just not there yet, ya know?
  3. No. Are you blind? KC made the trade with us to get Mahomes. That was a skillful move, not luck. We passed on a Super Bowl winning QB and were lucky to get Josh after doing something so stupid. If you can't see this there is no reason to talk any further.
  4. I thank you for this well thought post and respect the work that you put into it. I do not however think that it applies all that much to McDermott. The Bills are winning because the lucked into Josh Allen (a HOF talent imo) after trading away the pick for Mahomes, at which time they moved from 10 to 27 with a very small return. To do so, they left the following players on board to draft a cornerback: Patrick Mahomes Deshaun Watson Marshon Lattimore Marlon Humphrey TJ Watt This was utter stupidity, although it is hard to guage how much of the blame falls on McDermott. Please don't misunderstand this post. I think that McDermott is a good coach. Now, he did not invent this term "process" of which he speaks, but he did at least co-opt it from a truly great coach. I guess my point is that although I am satisfied with McDermott, if he didn't luck into Allen ths team would more than likely still suck, and he would have probably been fired by now, good coach or not. Obviously the above is jmo and I repeat my compliments on your post.
  5. I understand how you feel. I am the first to say that bad behavior and having incidents involving the police are usually not isolated incidents. Of course, there are exceptions. Given the above, I still think that Jeudy deserves another chance. His charges were not that serious and btw, if Josh Allen was his QB this man would be catching touchdowns galore.
  6. Never, I never met a girl like you in my life I never, no, no, yeah, I never met a girl like you in my life The way that you hold me in the night The way that you make things go right Whenever you're in my arms Girl, you're filling me with all your charms Suavecito, mi niña (Baby, baby, baby now) Suavecito, mi niña (That we've got to find it out) Suavecito, mi linda (I just can't believe it's true) Suavecito ('Cause you know girl that I love you)
  7. In my case "mad" is the incorrect term. To me, that game is just an addition to the litany of decades of heart breaking events in the life of a Bills Fan. As I get on in years it hurts less, not more. The list of disappointments is well known and too long to list, and even includes just about every draft. Now, will I ever watch a replay? No freaking way. I am better at resisting self torture these days LOL!
  8. I see your point but I'm just telling you how things are.
  9. Only in domestic cases. The threat of lawsuits scares the crap out of departments. It looks really bad if police respond, leave, and a woman gets beaten or murdered. Things were much different before the OJ case.
  10. In domestic cases, people are WAY more likely to get arrested than say 2 men getting into a fight in a bar. In the latter, if both parties declined to press charges, the officers would usually be able to take a report and leave (barring serious physical injury or use of a weapon which would upgrade an assault to a felony). WRT domestic incidents, most departments require arrests. They feel as if they will be less likely to get sued. In NYC, an arrest can be made if the officers feel that future violence is likely. A person can go on a death threat. Will the charge stick? Probably not but a T.O.P. might be issued at arraignment.
  11. Or a bit more likely, a procedural arrest in line with department policy.
  12. Woman, when I saw you comin' Should've started runnin' Evil woman Woman, I offered to you my soul You ran it over hot coals You evil woman Woman, thought you were a blessin' Then I caught you messin' Evil woman Woman, you ain't got no feelin' You're just a dirty dealin' Yeah
  13. No, not at all. I don't hate UGA. Alabama was defeated by a better team. We were lucky to beat them in the SEC Title Game. And btw I am NOT making excuses for the injuries either. It might however be different this season.
  14. I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone All my dreams, pass before my eyes, a curiosity Dust in the wind, all they are is dust in the wind. Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea All we do, crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see Dust in the wind, all we are is dust in the wind
  15. I see what you are saying but it would seem like a valid arrest. Depending on how the formula got into the car, and the length of time it was there a ( probably weak) case could be made for Reckless Endangerment of a Child. Perhaps even a charge of Petit Larceny? A stretch but not impossible. If sounds to me (without being there) that this might not have resulted in an arrest were it not a domestic. Most jurisdictions allow very little wiggle room for police officers on domestic cases. They actually want arrests in order to not be held responsible for further violence and successfully sued. The NYPD for many years was thrilled by domestic arrests, to the point that they didn't care (within some sense of reasonability) how much overtime a cop would make on one of these, even if it was pensionable. Offficers are even allowed, if not ordered to make an arrest if the complainant refuses to press charges in many instances. I don't have a crystal ball and I was not there, but I suspect the charges will be dropped against Jeudy and the complainant will ask the judge to do so. He will spend a few bucks for a lawyer and maybe, a temporary order of protection will be issued against him but probably not. Being a defense attorney on this case would be a dream job!!! Jmo.
  16. Btw was that really her posting on this board?
  17. No, 13-2 odds. 6.5 to 1. Come down from space.
  18. I got them winning the Super Bowl at 13-2.
  19. It certainly is and taking the formula is even worse imo however; if he was on the Bills the board would be flooded with defenses and excuses.
  20. Kyle Williams WAS a great draft choice. That said, look at the 4 duds the Bills drafted before him in 2006. I know, a case can be made that other teams also passed on Kyle but that isn't the point imo. I also believe that a certain amount of luck is involved. When the Bills passed on Mahomes to trade back 17 spots and draft a corner, it was plain stupidity. Am I happy with Allen? MORE than happy but they were very lucky. No team has perfect drafts but the Bills have lacked a good draft philosophy for decades. Do they have a good one now? I guess we will know soon enough. That is hard to argue with. At one point Rex had Dareus lined up behind scrimage and jumping up and down, flapping his arms. He looked like a big penguin. 😒
  21. Late yesterday night I saw a light shine from a window And as I looked again Your face came into sight I couldn't walk on Until you'd gone from your window I had to make you mine I knew you were the one Oh, I would be glad Just to have a love like that Oh, I would be true And I'd live my life for you
  22. Well, in NY (and I assume many other states), Desk Appearance Tickets cannot be given on domestic cases, meaning that you must get arraigned before a judge who either will set bail, release with no bail, or remand you pending trial.
  23. Walking through forests of palm tree apartments Scoff at the monkeys who live in their dark tents Down by the waterhole, drunk every Friday Eating their nuts, saving their raisins for Sunday Lions and tigers who wait in the shadows They're fast but they're lazy, and sleep in green meadows Well, let's bungle in the jungle Well, that's all right by me, yes Well, I'm a tiger when I want love But I'm a snake if we disagree
