If this is the window to win it all, then why even bother signing Allen? Just use up the rest of his rookie contract and shrug, "Welp, our window is done. Oh well."

I don't care about seeding. Never really have. Get to the playoffs. Then win.

It's a win/win situation. Either they have him as a dependable backup this year or they get a first out of him. I'd take the first, pretty much without hesitation, but I am not, nor will I ever be a GM. I think our defense is going to be significantly improved this year, and we have one of the best receiver corps in the league, so I think we can muddle by 4 games fine with a backup, assuming those 4 games aren't in the playoffs.

Is there anyone that wouldn't trade Trubisky for a first, if an offer like that popped up? Mitch isn't looking for a backup spot, so it's not like he'd stick around after this season anyway.

Unlike most people I know who won't get the vaccine, you sound like you are taking pretty much every cautious step you can. I appreciate that.

Heh. I've accidentally reposted before, but I don't think I've ever reposted something directly after the original post. 😛

The mRNA vaccines cause dendritic cells in the immune system to create viral antigens, which then activate the body's normal immune system. They don't target every cell in your body, nor do they have those cells do things they ordinarily don't do.

There are billions of people around the world with little to no access to the vaccines, regardless of what first world anti-vaxxers do. I don't understand this at all.

You're welcome to go elsewhere.

This is absurd. Comments like this don't belong on Sabrespace.

Pfizer is nearing FDA approval. Do you really think that will change people's minds?

Second-highest APY behind Mahomes. It's risky, since he has only had 1 good season. But he's shown more than any Bills QB since Kelly, with more potential than perhaps any Bills QB ever, so it's a risk you have to take. I can't believe how wrong I was about this guy. Eating all the crow.

Oy vey. This isn't really the thread for this.

Because even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while?

Yeah. I use DuckDuckGo as my primary internet search engine, but I'll still say I googled something, because everyone knows what that means. I'd probably get really funny looks by people if I told them I duckduckgo'd it. Anyway, this is all off topic. Back to Owen Power.

While it's from Middle English, it's still a word in modern English. Granted, not one that's been popular since probably the 1800s. Overwhelm is an example of redundancy in English. Sometimes the redundancy is accepted, like overwhelmed and uprising. Other times, they're in use but looked at as improper, such as irregardless.

Whelmed means overwhelmed. Yay, language.

The Athletic ran a big poll back in March or so about what the new name should be, and Guardians won. Personally, I liked Spiders (which is ironic considering my arachnophobia).

I have a tangentially related question. Where is the best place online to buy Buffalo sports apparel? I don't think I've ever purchased sports apparel in my life, so this might sound like a hilariously stupid question. But if I want a hat or jersey or whatever, is there a best place to go?

Thanks!

Any link that doesn't require a login?

Man, tell me about it. The Bills' last championship was 1965 in a league of 8 teams (55 seasons, 5th longest active draught in NFL). The Sabres have 0 championships (50 seasons, 2nd longest active NHL drought (thanks, Toronto!)). The Indians' last championship was in 1948 (longest active drought in MLB). I was pulling for the Cavs when they finally got their championship with LeBron, but I never really cared for basketball and it was more pulling for Cleveland the city rather than the team (Indians fan and my uncle lived in a suburb of Cleveland when I was growing up). I also like to cheer on the Browns in a similar fashion (except when it conflicts with the Bills).

I hate my sugar addiction. But I love my caffeine addiction.

Trea Turner is the first player in MLB history to hit for the cycle on his birthday. Neat.
