So being a casual Bills fan, sure does sound pretty dang good right now

lol I've said the same thing countless times about the Mariners, but I always come back when there's any sign of hope. That's what being a fan does to a person. It won't be any different for you. I promise you. :wink:

Currently tied for 1st. But ultimately it won't matter cuz they'll find someway to blow it. Choke. It's what they do.

Just go full scope into the NBA. Turn your back on football and really sink your teeth into the nuances of current NBA landscape.

Sounds fair.

I'd definitely think less of you if you had jumped onto the Chiefs bandwagon after their two most recent SB wins and then guaranteed a three-peat.

Ya I would never do that haha. Can’t jump to a team that’s already won a championship. But with that said, if Wentz looks good this weekend, this will be me

You should just adopt the Chargers. You're a fan of Herbert & it's a well coached team with Harbaugh. They're a physical team, too.

I do love me some Herby and Harbaugh is the definition of a football guy. And damn those baby blues are the best jersey in all of football.

But I could never root for a California team outside of USC. Just feels wrong and dirty.

I've lived in the tri-state my whole life, so unfortunately, sports are pain for me lol

The 2016 Cavs title, UK's 2012 title, and Sonny Leon winning the 2022 Kentucky Derby were about the only things I've been able to celebrate lol which Lexington is 80 miles south and Cleveland 250 miles north.

Bengals have never won, Reds haven't won in 35 years, FCC has only been in the MLS 6 years, and the Cyclones are a couple tiers below the NHL.

They are as rare as people who like Skyline Chili but they actually exist.

Almost 1/5th of the league will be starting a backup QB this weekend. It's week 3. Although, to be fair, Tyrod Taylor is one of those and he's probably better than Justin Fields.

I'm actually back on a Gold Star kick lol but I'm one of the ones who has no allegiance in the Skyline vs Gold Star debate, I'll eat either one.

The Cowboys @ Bears game should be extremely ugly and extremely sloppy. I read they are expecting a downpour during the game.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. You guys hit on two rookie starting pitchers this year who look very legit in Logan Gilbert and Bryan Woo. And it also has helped you guys picking up catcher Cal Raleigh. He's having a hall of fame year.
