Mango Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 21 minutes ago, Buffalo716 said: There are conservative people in Buffalo, but the city is not a low-key conservative place anymore We haven't had a Republican mayor in over 50 years. We are a liberal City now The suburbs are different I was referring to regionally. Only about a 1/4 of the region lives in the city limits. Even then, if you lived in Amherst and went to Denver, you would say you were from Buffalo. Drawing municipal lines is irrelevant. WNY as a region is more conservative (and segregated) than anybody really wants to admit. 1

K-9 Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 12 minutes ago, JoeF said: @MatthewFairburn 11m Bills statement on Jake Fromm: (1/2) “Earlier today, we became aware of comments made in a text message conversation involving Jake Fromm in 2019. He was wrong and he admitted it to us. We don’t condone what he said. Jake was honest and forthcoming to us about the text exchange. @MatthewFairburn 10m Bills statement part two: “He asked for an opportunity to address and apologize to his teammates and coaches today in a team meeting, which he did. We will continue to work with Jake on the responsibilities of being a Buffalo Bill on and off the field.” Speaks well of Fromm and the Bills for giving him the opportunity.
Needle Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 I wonder if black players will have their phones and social media checked for insensitive material? This way we can really clean things up in the league.

Ethan in Cleveland Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 He's done. He has a Peterman arm and is now a cancer in the locker room. Cut him now. He was at best a marginal possible upgrade over Barkley. Cut your losses now. 1

Western New York is conservative, I don't think anybody would dispute that But actual City people don't consider Amherst Buffalo or lancaster, or OP Buffalo All those people who live in those burbs say they're from Buffalo, but the people that live in the city wouldn't call a Amherst native a buffalonian They think they are privileged suburbanites , not going through the struggle like the City slickers Having a house in the city and burbs, this is something I have seen and learned over the years All the suburbanites call themselves buffalonians, while the people in the city don't think of them as Buffalo 1

If the FO allows a 5th rounder to disrupt what was by all accounts an extraordinarily close knit locker room they are much stupider than I realized 2
