Eleven

Dalton is washed up, and I never was much of a believer in him to begin with. I'd much rather have the Bills stick with the plan, maybe add a third-string project, and move forward. I see Dalton as a step back.

I can sure say this so far--anyone who thought that WGR is afraid to criticize the Pegulas needs to walk that back after the last half hour.

His record with the Bills suggests otherwise. He won his lone start in 2018. His lone "real game" in 2019 was the game where the Bills got jobbed against the Patriots, and Barkley had to come in late off the bench to play against both the Pats and the refs. His other game in 2019 also was not a start and was not a "real game"; it was week 17 against the Jets, and the Bills were just trying to get out of there without injuries. I think he could win 2 out of 4 games. Andy Dalton, on the other hand, won 2 out of 13 starts last season. 5 out of 11 the year before.

I was wondering how you're doing with that. Good to see you're not among the victims.

I think that Barkley is very good for Allen. I also don't think he's a bad backup at all. I'd rather keep him around.

I have a few observations about both the article and the Q&A, but I need to give them both a second read (where I usually read The Athletic doesn't lend itself well to concentration). I'm slightly disappointed, but I also wonder how much of it is business as usual in the industry. More to come.

My opinion is neither experienced nor knowledgable. And I didn't watch the video. Just looking at the still shot let me know that she's off her rocker. Yeah, people walk into law offices with some hugely incorrect ideas, too.

So the answers are:

Not to me you don't! I'd keep it quiet.

Sorry. Money's tight everywhere right now.

1971 and 1973, sorry.

Very nice! I'd no idea. Had to look that up.

Lack of self-respect and./or stoned out of your mind?

You didn't even acknowledge my pun. We used to be so close.

Yeah but he spun out of orbit. I can't reasonably include him in an optimal team.

During a strange conversation with my father about the 1970 draft, I was compelled to do some Internet research. Turns out that there were three Hall of Famers drafted in 1970. No, Dave Tallon was not one of them. Can you name them? And can you name the teams that selected them? Perreault and Buffalo are "free," so just name the other two. As before, if you can post your answer in spoiler tags so that more people can have fun, please do.

Not gonna happen with Fehr around. Or Bettman, for that matter. I wish the NHL had plucked Adam Silver from the NBA rather than Bettman.

When I type "Erie" into this, I become concerned: https://www.statnews.com/feature/coronavirus/county-preparedness-scores/?utm_source=STAT+Newsletters&utm_campaign=38bcfbc731-breaking_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_8cab1d7961-38bcfbc731-152029413

I don't think we're getting political at the moment but maybe I don't see it. As for hospitals over-filling: We're going to run out of beds in WNY, aren't we?

There are about 55 or so counties where we don't call ourselves that.

Then New York can't be expected to "repay," either.

This shouldn't have made me laugh the way it did.

Keene right now is the center of an anarchist movement that is neither left nor right, but certainly is loony and definitely is not granola-y. (I actually thought you had written "not" rather than "neat" in your post and thought I was agreeing with you.)

DEFINITELY not Keene!

And that's just TV viewers in the US. When we're looking at the gate--which we are, in this thread---we have to consider all those fans who live very close to Buffalo but don't count in the ratings only because there's a river in between them and the team.
