You do know that website is run by lawyers, don't you? I guess they succeeded with you - making you scared and likely to sue if bitten. In addition, for every pit bull bite or attack, there is another by another breed you never hear about. A pit bull attacks someone...front page news or good reading on a sensationalist website. A lab attacks someone...you'll never hear about it. Plus, there's a staggering amount of scientific studies that have shown pit bulls are no more aggressive than any other breed of dog, leading to both the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior (AVSAB) and the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) to issue a position statement against Breed Specific Legislation. The AVMA statement can be seen here, which is excellent literature for educating the public: http://avsabonline.org/uploads/position_statements/Breed-Specific_Legislation-download-1.pdf The AVMA is hardly a biased source of facts. Here is a report from the American Temperment Test Society: http://atts.org/breed-statistics/ Go to American Pit Bull Terrier and Anerican Staffordshire Terrier. Their rates of aggression are no different than most breeds - less than average aggression. Here is a very recent study by the University of Bristol in the UK that surveyed 14,000 dog owners. Breed was not found to be a predictor of aggression: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S016815911300292X

This was an absolutely fantastic video. I've been critical of him before, but do to his advocacy of pitties, he goes up 100 notches in my book. This guy can do no wrong. Beautiful dog. I got 2 myself.

Rookie WR stats after 2 games - Sammy in the lead
Saint Doug replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Perhaps a better stat would be WR's yards divided by yards thrown by his QB. -
Keenan Allen chargers stud WR hurts groin
Saint Doug replied to Webster Guy's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If someone besides Kelly said that, that would have earned them a warning point. Plus, considering the sensitivity of the issue, it really isn't funny. -

Easy one...a fake girlfriend. -
Matt Miller hates the Bills - Update: just hates EJ
Saint Doug replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Don't worry guys, for hating on the Bills, he has been taken care by the Democratic People's Republic of North Korea: http://news.yahoo.com/n-korea-sentences-american-six-years-labour-camp-092042291.html -
How will Henderson hold up this week against Wake?
Saint Doug replied to Bocephuz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Wake who? -
I have to admit, he was throwing some awful nice balls all day. That one in the 1st quarter to Sammy dropped right between his hands - thrown perfectly.

Jay Gruden has to be happy right now
Saint Doug replied to Dragonborn10's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If Cousins has another game or 2 like he did today, I doubt RGIII regains the starter role when healthy. -

The guy had so much promise and is now turning into a bust right before our eyes. -

Official Pre-Game Thread: Week 1, Dolphins at Bills

Un!@#$ing believable sammy! -
The heavens must be on our side :-)

A buffalo mounting a dolphin? Sounds fine to me. -
You know what's also unfair? 1st-4th round draft picks who are out of the league by 3 years. Should we also argue that they should give the money back to the owner who drafted him?
-
I'm sure there's a whole lot of us being paid less than we're worth, especially those who just joined the workforce. We deal with it. That argument's a steaming pile of poop.
-
He was still a 7th rounder. And 7th rounders are just that for a reason. He made his bed... Plus, I'm not so hot on giving any player, 1st rounder or UDFA, with less than 3 years experience a reason to hold-out.

I must be totally behind the times in this soap opera, but I thought JBJ was kicked out of the TO group. What gives?
-
Antonio Brown should get a 3-game suspension. What trash.

The 2nd half thread Bills vs. the Bears
Saint Doug replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Schwartz? But we heard of him, this can't be. -
The 1st half thread Bills vs. the Bears
Saint Doug replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I wouldn't. EJ has done enough already to win this game, no point in putting him in position to lose it. They need to run it down their throats rest of game and D needs to step it up. -
Marrone yells to Russ "go ahead and fire me"
Saint Doug replied to papazoid's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
That's fine, but true professionals would have kept their cool and remained rational. This stress of "we must win now" goes all the way back to the draft when they shipped a king's ransom for Watkins. Watkins may end up being very good, but WR does not have a huge effect on the W-L column. Just as the Lions. For a team that is really still in the building stage (ie. we don't have an established QB), it's not wise to mortgage the future the way we did. -
ESPN Power Rankings/Watkins Trade
Saint Doug replied to Gabe Northern's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yes, and look at the teams around them and how it correlated to their teams' success. Rice had 2 HOF QBs throwing to him. Randy Moss, when effective, either had a HOF WR playing opposite him (Carter) or a future HOF throwing to him (Brady). And Megatron is basically pissing away his talent in Detroit, going nowhere. What's in common with these generational talents?: enjoyed success when surrounded by HOF talent or little impact on their team if not. In the current state of the Bills, the addition of a generational WR isn't going to mean much. I think this was Whaley trying to play Madden. -
ESPN Power Rankings/Watkins Trade
Saint Doug replied to Gabe Northern's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I say it depends on neither. It depends on a guy named Kyle Orton. I would never have thought I would say this in my life, but he's the Bills only chance of meeting 0.500 this year. He'll be starting by the bye if not earlier and may be the only person on the team capable of moving next year's pick out of the top 5. -
Welker suspended for amphetamine use
Saint Doug replied to Rubes's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You're correct. I never heard of amphetamines "thinning the blood". They're sympathomimetics, so they actually vasoconstrictors. Amphetamines could potentially aid in post concussive syndrome (ie increase attentiveness and focus), but I doubt there's much in the literature looking at this. Amphetamines dilate pupils. Opioids constrict them, but that's another thread...
