Social WR Lounge v214: RR, will it be Meth?

[My Spot]

The Bills won a playoff game.

If you have an end of times bucket list, best get at it.

I'm old enough to remember the Bills being a great franchise and the Patriots being referred to as the Pathetics.

 

[Social Distance Warrior]

I was expecting that. Coaches are overrated. The QB is practically the coach. Brady could probably play until he's 50, with all the protections QB's are afforded these days.

Came across a crazy stat during this game.

Tom Brady has 30 post season victories

Oh, you remember Jim Kelly too?
And Scott Norwood missing that field goal?

And Montana, the next in line, has like what, 16?

John Mccain was basically a saint in AZ, and now they are trying to censor his wife for "past drug abuses" and Mccains "Serious misconduct while in the military"

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh You left out "Failed to support conservative candidates including Trump" fucking LOL

Oh, and

The latter was before I started watching but I definitely remember watching their SB loss to the Redskins. I was a Dolphins fan because of Marino so I wasn't too fond of them at the time.

Yup, he's #2

Patriots, yes. The Bills though? Even at their best, they were bridesmaids. The 0-4 Superbowl run is all they've got. I've always remembered them as being cursed, and never being able to reach greatness. They're like the Toronto Maple Leafs of football, with their fans going "Remember all those times we almost won?", with the difference being that the Bills actually have made the Championship finals in modern times, and the Leafs actually have Championship banners from a 1000 years ago. Both franchises are pretty big losers though.

The only comfort they have is knowing that at least they're not the Clippers.

Right, but they were still far and away better than New England. "Well at least we're not the Pathetics..."
The Knicks didn't win any titles in the 90s either but they were still a great franchise.

Finishing up a recommendation for one of my interns; how would you interpret this question?

Please provide 2 areas for improvement of this candidate and how you believe a residency program will be able to work with the candidate's noted areas for improvement.

To me it reads like they're asking how this program is going to cope the disabilities i just listed? Maybe I shouldn't be the guy writing this lol.

Are they asking what the candidate's two biggest weaknesses are and what the residency can do to improve them?

One of my favorite SB memories was that kick. I hated those Bills. Man I got shitfaced that day.

thats how I instinctively interpreted it, but I like to reread these things to be sure and it doesn't read like that.

Buf had the best offense in the league and had just beaten the Raiders 51-3. Wonder if ole Bill's Spygate shenanigans started that season.

I guess I just can't agree that you can call a franchise "great" with no rings. Even with the Knicks, they get by on some arbitrary elite status because they had some memorable players and play in a huge market, but the reality is that they haven't even accomplished as much as the Raptors, despite having a far longer history. Their imaginary "elite" status is built on the brand, and not necessarily the legacy.

Huh? They've won more titles than the Raps.

Maybe. But as I recall, the Giants' defense was beastly. And defense wins championships.

The aquarium is hiring an entry level sea otter trainer. I think I'm going to apply and hope my charisma in an interview can carry me through to a job.

@Zookeeper Gabe do I need a degree for entry level positions like that? I wanna hang out with some otters and work my way into the penguin homie position.

And the G-Men had freaking Jeff Hostetler at QB, iirc. Went on the road and beat the Niners like 15-13 or something, then beat the unstoppable Bills. That was the first SB in Tampa’s old sombrero I think.

My bad. Got my Bills/Knicks lines crossed.

Yeah they beat San Fran because they knocked Montana out in the 4th quarter.
