  1. McD: hey Jake, we got a super special, super secret assignment for you. It’s critical you accept this as the future of the season rides on this effort. This is your chance to ascend to greatness. Fromm: Sure, coach! I accept! What is it? McD: you have to stay as far as physically possible from my team. Go where you want, but please, just stay the ***** away.
  2. It’s not about adding the most talent we can at backup QB. Josh needs a veteran presence to mentor him. Barkley does that. Rosen doesn’t add anything.
  3. We gave up a 7th rounder just to give him a tour of the facility.
  4. I’m not as invested, because I don’t think the season is going to be played to completion. The players are effectively in bubbles right now. They probably drive to work, then right back home. Once teams have to start traveling, things are going to change.
  5. You hit the nail on the head. When I learned the NFL was allowing players to design their own shoes, I couldn’t believe my ears and had to take a week off from work. I haven’t been to a game since.
  6. The question I have with FA is what happens if the season is cut short? If they play 8 games, will this count as an accrued season? Plus, I would think there’s going to be a lack of good data for a good handful of future FAs and they may be forced to take a discount. I don’t think Milano would be one of those, but I could see this shaving a million off per year. He’s very good, but he’s not a game changer. Edmonds isn’t either, but hopefully he gets there soon.
  7. Maybe he has been a spy for Hoodie all along?
  8. Do the Bills even need a marketing department? They can outsource the Media Guide.
  9. I’d rather have a 5th rounder that plays balls to the wall on every play than a 1st round bust.
  10. Before anyone takes this farther than it really should, Buscaglia was just mentioning one single play. The focus of the article was on them working well together, not their positions. It’s still anyone’s guess where they’ll line up.
  11. I can see the Pats going 0-3, having the season abruptly ending, and them getting the top pick.
  12. Yep. I see now. Best to keep people away until they absolutely need to be on campus.
  13. Are they giving up? It seems like everyone BUT the rookies should be sent home. I guess if they have no chance of winning a starting position, why have them there?
  14. I completely understand and mostly agree. If it happens, it must be done very safely. As we have seen throughout this whole pandemic, most people would agree one-size fits all approach makes little sense. The logistics are daunting, as you point out. But, you implied in your post that the medical community wasn’t advocating for school reopening. This was not an accurate statement. An organization that guides the practice of the 90,000 pediatricians in this country is. I’m sure I’m preaching to the choir here, but schools remaining closed is causing irreparable damage to certain student populations. Kids with special needs and learning disabilities, where early intervention is required, are taking a huge hit. The other population that will suffer greatly are kids that are experiencing some sort of abuse at home (whether its verbal, physical, or neglect). Schools provide a safety net for this student population. The last population are those with mental illness needs. This is self-explanatory.
  15. This is a very difficult situation for players. If they are not stars and opt out of this season, they very well may lose their starting/backup positions for next year if their replacement shines. This is no different than when a player gets injured during the season. For many players, this may be the difference between being an NFL player and being out of the league.
  16. You got a lot of up votes, but there was some veracity to what that guy posted. The American Academy of Pediatrics is on record for school reopening this fall. This is the organization that comes up with all guidelines pediatricians follow. They have no political stance, nor are they part of any form of the federal government. Although, their members are left-leaning. https://services.aap.org/en/news-room/news-releases/aap/2020/pediatricians-educators-and-superintendents-urge-a-safe-return-to-school-this-fall/
  17. Was this when he was seeing ghosts on the field?
  18. Is Goodell going to suspend him for 6 games for being mentioned in connection to domestic violence? Remember, the NFL doesn’t like such headlines associated with its players.
  19. This is the Tre I love though:
  20. To me, no. To Tre, yes. He’s said so.
  21. I hope it’s been the pandemic or his reaction to police brutality, but it just seems like something has changed in him this offseason. Or, maybe we really never knew him.
