If anything, folks like @dorquemada should be mad at San Diego St University and the local SD Police. This "story" had been out there for MONTHS before the ***** hit the fan with the Bills. SDSU was on the verge of being asked to join the PAC-12 and didnt want any bad publicity about their football team. Had SDSU/SDPD not tried so hard to squelch the investigation/story, then more likely, the police would have completed their investigation and everything would have been wrapped by draft time, let alone training camp. Instead, they tried to ignore it to make it go away in the pursuit of more TV money, which only dragged it out longer for both the girl and Araiza. Could have cleared his name much sooner, but they were afraid to investigate just in case it was true. Disgusting on all levels there.

And he's getting that right now.

None needed when based in reality.

It really wasnt. I understand you are neck deep in your narrative and wont change your mind because it gives you something to rail against. But it had nothing, NOTHING, to do with "the mob" or public opinion. It was a legal and business decision on what was best for the team, poised to make a SB run, with a kid barely signed to a rookie contract who couldnt be stashed on any exempt list. Any and every other team would have done the same thing, even if social media had never been invented.

Parking Passes required for Bills games this year?
DrDawkinstein replied to BillsPride12's topic in The Stadium Wall
Ah, makes sense. They've lost a lot of parking with the construction site. Must need to plan more accurately. -

The offseason is where we improve as well. Coaches are watching, waiting for you to step it up.

OP earned an extra .5 point from me for nailing the lack of paragraph breaks.

Peak Offseason Post. 8.5/10 Couldve earned extra points by making it an "open letter" to Pegula.

Not reading this thread, or even the OP. Yes, of course we do. It's still our Division. Pats are in the race for the #1 overall. Dolphins will be proven warm-weather cupcake frauds once again. Jets are gonna Jet it up.

So funny enough, I thought to myself "I wonder if former Falcon Deion Jones is still available. Let me google to see what team signed him...." And it was the Bills. He's already in Buffalo. Totally forgot about that. He's no Milano, but I feel better about the spot if Dorian Williams cant hold it down.

Late June/Early July was nuts! Even adding fresh water didnt help because the "cold" hose water was 80+ out of the tap. It's settling down now with the cooler nights and shorter days. Maintaining right in the mid 80s.

So funny that all us dudes are aligned on the temps. I like it warm 88-90. My wife wants it "crisp and refreshing". Although, I agree with @Augie, it can definitely get too hot. I had to throw 4 bags of ice in the pool for our July 4th party because the temp was 96 (and we dont even have a heater!)

Just Bill or the whole team?

We currently have a budget above ground pool. Little 12ft guy from Intex. Got it going into COVID summer 2020 and it's been invaluable. Great little investment for the amount of use my kid (and us parents) get out of it. Being in Atlanta we use it from May 1 to October. All in, with all the accessories and upgraded filter pump etc, it's only been about $500 total. We've had it for 4 years now and no issues. If anyone is looking for a cheap and easy pool for the kids, you cant beat it. That said, we are to the point of redoing the house and yard and looking at in-ground pools next. So far, we got some pricing on some fiberglass, molded in-ground pools. We're looking about $35k-50k for the pool, pumps, plumbing, and concrete. Not too bad.

Everyone drops balls. Even Larry Fitzgerald had a ton of drops. Cooks' drops unfortunately came on a couple of potentially big plays that would likely have been TDs. But I dont buy that he was any less reliable than most pass-catching RBs.

I'd say this misrepresents a lot of successful CEOs, and that guy certainly didnt have a business degree or knew what a CEO does. Now, there are certainly many who have tried to take that aloof, hands-off approach, thinking it's an easy gig. But either they or the company wont last too long. The best CEOs I've known are the ones that get their hands dirty. The best one I've ever known, I caught in the warehouse doing some menial grunt work one time, and when I called him out on why the boss would be doing that, he responded "When you are CEO, all that means is: any job you dont have someone specifically hired to do, becomes your job". Learned a big lesson that day. Followed that guy across 4 different companies. I think that is more of the leadership Terry is looking to get out of his highest paid employee not named Pegula.

Bears @ Bills - Preseason Game 1 - SAT 08/10 - 1 PM
DrDawkinstein replied to DaBillsFanSince1973's topic in The Stadium Wall
Roger Goodell/NFL Offices must love Sean McDermott. Their marketing team figured out a long time ago that scoring/offense and QBs sell tickets and advertising revenue. And NO ONE makes QBs look better than Sean McDermott. Whether it's Easton Stick, Mac Jones, Zach Wilson, Trevor Lawrence, or Caleb Williams making his debut - McD gonna let them cook. (expect Tua, lol Dolphins) (that said, its just preseason and I'm really not worried at all. Two different teams at two very different stages working on very different things) -
Just quit the season. That performance was pathetic

You dont check the score to see who won a preseason game, you check the injury report. -
Picked up this one on lids.com a couple weeks back for the new season.

Brandon Aiyuk officially requests a trade

Keep him out of the AFC. -

DrDawkinstein replied to SCBills's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yeah, I think it can hurt the team more than being an advantage. Especially when you are talking about $97M void years. If I was GM, I think I cap void years at $5M. Good way to find a little wiggle room, bad way to pay out big contracts. Of course, if they expect to sign Hurts to a 3rd deal then it doesnt matter much because it all gets rewritten. I assume that is their thought process. But not sure Im sold on the long term viability of Hurts. -

He's been a butthead since college, and likely well before that too. This is like year 20 of him being a butthead.
