Nice. Fight for oil in this dust bowl, transport half way around the world, support radical governments, and choose not to build a pipeline from Canada that would eliminate the need for oil from the middle east, even 20 yrs ago. Hmmmm Still think this was all about supporting military suppliers and contractors.

No doubt supported, but purpose has long been lost. The Taliban won. Yes, a few leaders of the terrorists died, so did many soldiers. The terrorists were not necessarily taliban. But why 20 years?? 40 years 2 major waring nations fought this piece of scrub, and the taliban and their religious leaders are still standing and killing other citizens at will. Military contractors are the only winners and the veterans hospitals are overflowing. Hardly a war to protect freedom at home. I have long believed in these circumstance in the middle east....surround the country. Nobody gets out. Arm them, and befriend the winner. Ps Timmy, you seem to have data available quickly, are you sure you are not being paid for this??😁

Yes Korea was at least a partial success, negotiating with the very people we hated to divide the spoils. Not a true win, Kim is the result of that split decision. I question why Russia fought for this piece of dirt (Afghanistan) for 20 years, then the west did, both lost and nothing changed. I say it was nothing but spending military budget. The American people didn't want this. This was not revenge for 9 11. Trading the World Center bombing for bombing a cave of dirt and rock for 20 years, not equal.

$10.00 per car increase in parking. $2.00 per beer increase, $8.00 per jersey increase , Shrink the pizza slice size by 15% and we are still thrilled😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁

Not sure about that. Was this money for the industrial military complex. Use up some ammo, watch a few die, change places with Russia?, it certainly was not to liberate the Afghanistan people. For the second time in 50 years the US is defeated in a foreign war because they are not prepared to win, just compete. Will we ever understand , do not take sides in a domestic fight.

I am not very knowledgeable on the details of this conflict, but about 20 years, equal to Russia's time in this sand box, plus 20 yrs of monetary support to fight against Russia previously, now an untimely exit and it appears the Afgans have the same piece of poop country back that they had 40 yrs ago. What was the point? Why did Russia and then the US ( and Canada) spend so many lives and dollars and then quit? The Taliban and their religious controls are again free the kill, mutilate, stone and hate. I think this is worse than Vietnam in results. What say you.

Based on the math let's save money and support freedoms and stop vaccines for rubella, polio, tb, whooping cough mumps etc. The math shows we have few cases and almost no deaths. Math while absolutely necessary in studying most issues, does fail to consider the stupidity of people. With strong pressure for vaccines/masks the math projections would show the result would be substantial.

You cannot read. He is talking cloth not medical and you are making a point that cloth masks make you bang your chests????? This is a joke right. That kite looks good or you.

Sorry Blitz, just stay home or fly the kite. Ridiculous statements like cloth doesn't work is soooo off. Doctors and nurses have worn masks for generations. So if cloth doesn't work, when your child needs surgery, let's just encourage the Dr not to mask and scrub up. Telling people you are afraid is not the end of the world. Ever been to war? You are scared. I sure hope your family never got a polio, tb, measles vaccine. Sure hope you don't need if those new fangled drugs out there, approved by theCDC.government agency. Sure hope your government does not interfere with your food supply like bacteria tests, and tests for that whisky you drink. But of course road kill never has a best before date. Enjoy your chest pounding, I enjoy the humor. You are right Timmy, as usual. You and Rhino always had the answers. You should run for office.

Until the world gets vaccine, the variants will continue to evolve in human test tube. There is the real danger. Blame whoever you wish, CCP, trump, Fauci, Biden, Pelosi, WHO, Pfizer (you have no problem with viagra), Wuhan bats, or Putin. So everyones job is to protect humanity. 1. Either take the vaccine or escape to your home and stay there for 3 years. 2. If you take vaccine, wear a mask everywhere when you are indoors in public and outdoors in crowds. 3. If you demand a right that doesn't exist, go fly a kite like founding father Ben and get killed by lighting. Sacrifice yourself. My generation had no right but to join an army for WW2, Korea, or Vietnam and do our duty. Now do yours.

I recall watching our savior Trent Edward's in October game at home his first year. I told my son who was sitting in the seat next to me....Edwards would never be a qb in Buffalo. At a time out he went to the sidelines to speak to coaches, as they gathered together to review strategy he left the group to get a coat, something no one else needed in that huddle. In a time when concentration and leadership for the game was needed he selfishly concentrated on his own comfort. And this was October cold, not Dec. In contrast to Jim K, following retirement taking his coat off, twirling it over his head, on the sidelines vs Miami as the snow squall entered the stadium signifying the end of the Dolphins that day. Snow and cold are our allies and advantage as much as heat and humidity are to some teams. Edwards was too weak to be a leader of men.

Happy Bday Marv. Where would you rather be than right here right now. Sheer genius! Thank you for all the class and leadership.

I miss the Flutie/Johnson debate! 🤣

Of course a SB is ridiculous criteria, but so is the Austin threat. Debate downtown, OP, Rochester, Clarence, parking garages, no tailgating or open lots. But once the threat of moving starts...frig Terry. I lived through all the Ralph, "I love Buffalo but I am leaving if you don't kiss my ring, ". I refuse to be pawn in the press between the pols and Terry. Of course the pols will spend the money, it is not theirs and Joe just created a trillion to draw from. Of course Terry does not want to move. Of course I do not want them to move. But I will not be used by them, either one of them. So Terry, just win a SB and keep the rest of the crap at the bargaining table.

Maybe true, but responsibility is Terry's....no one else. He is also responsible for winning a Superbowl...do that first.

The other side of the coin is....are there actually any real Bills fans who want a new stadium, who want a new experience, maybe with limited tailgating where Pinto Ron is a mile away from stadium, where fewer seats available to general public and boxes dominate with corporate dollars, and a fancy seats and even higher prices. Win a Superbowl, then we can talk.

Over the years I have wasted too much energy on this subject. Move if you wish Terry. Move if you want Terry. Move if you must Terry. Move to Austin, move to Wyoming, move to one of your fracking sites, move to London. I don't care. JUST WIN A SUPERBOWL THIS YEAR and then you can frig off.

Is she not Chinese heritage? Could she be part of the CCP infiltration? 😁😁😁😁😉

Ok, you win this debate...Cheektowaga was the magic word...and as Groucho said...."say the magic word, win a hundred dolla"

You are either deaf or blind to think this is not religious. You are typical of the unthinking part of society, reactionary and simple. This is religious based...period. Recognize the world has changed. The US is not an island any longer. If you want it to be, kick out all those who do not believe...and bury your head. You people never shut up

Wow surfer dude, we agree.... It is not racist to disagree with ghetto culture, or drug culture, or a culture that has fathers killing daughters because they embarrassed them, or a culture that mutilates females etc This is not color, religion or race....

This is the ultimate freedom law. For all those who profess freedom for guns, masks, vaccines, etc, the freedom of choice should ring true. Do not suggest that you speak for the unborn, when you don't speak for the same and children in gun control consideration. This is a religious question and the US and most other civilized countries are no longer the sole domain of 1 religion. Let us all learn to live together, respect each other's core beliefs, and share human rights respectfully. This world has so many problems to be solved to help us all survive.

Sounds like the 60s.

I do not believe the report any more than he had nothing to do with deflated footballs.

Nice writing! Appreciate the clear thoughts. I don't agree with the Edmunds part. He does not need to be the guy to be our Watt, Taylor, Erlanger etc. That pressure on him is not necessary. He needs to be real good for sure. But I agree we need someone to be that dominant player....don't care who, Milano, Rousseau, Basham, Oliver, or Edmunds. We do lack that Bruce Smith player.... Thanks for the piece.
