  1. A nonprofit entity doesn’t mean they have no money or don’t make money. It just means they don’t have a profit to declare at the end of the fiscal year. Many nonprofits get to this point by paying out hefty bonuses or dumping any earnings into the growing the company. Nevertheless, nonprofits usually have money for advertising purposes.
  2. The time element makes sense for a GM. They want the fruits of their labor working to help them keep their job. The truth is, not many GMs are in a situation where they can be patient to have success. It needs to be fairly immediate, and often, or they’ll be sent packing. From a fan’s perspective, a 1st round player is still going to be a 1st round player.
  3. He’s spending more energy stabilizing his body that pushing upwards, which is likely the easiest part of the exercise. Your body does unstable things while trying to stabilize. I’m sure his agent called him after this post.
  4. No doubt that while going down there’s instability, especially while going down, which takes energy on Henry’s part to counteract. But he’s getting assistance going upwards. You can see the band contracting during his upstroke. That’s giving him assistance. This is high school physics. In fact, I bet he’s expending more energy down down than up, despite the show chains.
  5. I would be more impressed if he wasn’t using the elastic band. Looks like it is providing some amount of energy to his upwards motion.
  6. Every round produces stars. It doesn’t matter position. We can cherry pick great players from all rounds. It comes down to a team’s valuation of the player, not the round they are selected. If the Bills see a 1st round RB who they think will significantly contribute to our offense this coming season, then pull the trigger.
  7. We seem to be forgetting that JA has a few games per season where he just can’t do it himself. These aren’t shootouts, but Josh just being off or the opposing team having his number that day. It’s these days we need a dominating run game. Otherwise, I don’t really want a RB taking throws away from Josh. That said, we do need a RB that he can target out of the backfield.
  8. My guess is the Bills will try their best to move up. They’re in a win now mode, they can’t mortgage their future a little bit.
  9. I know this has been posted ad nauseam for YEARS. But, from a fan perspective, it still doesn’t make much sense at all. Maybe to GMs, who have leashes of various lengths (that is, their job security influence their picks). But, fast forward to 2022, the Fins are certainly not going to look at their extra 1st rounder as a 2nd rounder come draft day.
  10. Not sure how he’s gonna swing this coming year into a long-term contract somewhere else. He likely won’t be playing at all. You would think he would’ve picked a place where he could actually compete for a starting job. This time next year, I’m unsure if his value is any higher than it is right now. At least they’ll be more money for a boneheaded GM to throw at him.
  11. Why is he a “Bills Prospect” if he doesn’t belong to the Bills???
  12. Yep, “earned the right...” is a euphemism for we’re going to only offer a set price, we are not getting into a bidding war, and he’s likely to move on.
  13. Trash humans. Never since they supported Michael Vick as he was being found guilty. At least Vick had repented for his sins.
  14. @Not at the table Karlos @BillsShredder83 @Billl Sorry, the data is the data. Current and former NFL players have about half the suicide rate compared to general population. https://www.postandcourier.com/sports/how-common-is-suicide-among-retired-nfl-players/article_49e5108a-809c-59d7-97ef-2df445d18d97.html Here’s the link to the scientific study cited in this article: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0363546516645093?casa_token=TFAK1-kQN6gAAAAA%3AKyqIEGz5esiSVWJhOKPBDpibifj8qR2wYHApeNlNowWpYfLenP7MTdC5NjTsXnLQ_NzUg-XfAU8ssQ
  15. Unfortunately, people are going to kill themselves. Mathematically speaking, I’m surprised there aren’t more suicides of former players. Doesn’t mean it was caused by playing football in the NFL.
  16. Fricking gave me chills. Just show that to the team before the game.
  17. Ben’s also a rapist. There’s that difference.
  18. I’m fine with losing Daboll, but not after this year. I want Josh to have another elite season before he leaves. At that point, it won’t really matter who the OC is.
  19. They probably spoke. But that you would hire someone because you guys smoked a joint together in hs is laughable.
  20. I don’t want to completely change our offense. Would rather have Dorsey continue it. I remember all Rex — the defensive guru — had to do was to copy Schwartz’s defense. It was already a top 5 defense. Instead, he tore it down to do things “his way” and it quickly became one of the worst in the NFL. We need to be careful what we wish for.
  21. I don’t like this headline. I don’t want the Bills facing any team that is having Covid problems. Now is not the time. And if it is truly going around the Miami team, I want all Bills starters watching from home on Sunday.
