Yesterday I drove my new car home; today I secured a $124,000+ profit. A reminder that focus, patience, and consistency truly pay off when you trust the process. Grateful to my coach @Kendra_Trades for the guidance none of this was accidental. 📈

Cashed out crypto profits yesterday, and today I’m stepping into a brand-new Chevrolet Colorado. Still feels unreal, but the grind is definitely paying off. Big shoutout to my coach @Kendra_Trades for guiding me every step of the way. Best New Year gift I could’ve asked for 🎆💯

Myles Garrett's 23 sacks tied the unofficial total this 6-foot-6, 260-pound #Lions rookie posted in 1978

Al "Bubba" Baker had 131 career sacks per @pfref

Goodbye, bleacher seats. Another vestige of a bygone, blue collar era of Buffalo.

For transparency, history and entertainment, I completely agree.

@readjack The voting process/presentations/deliberations and voting should be open and broadcast live on NFL Network.

[Jack M Silverstein 🇺🇸 @readjack]

I polled 17 NFL historians about the PFHOF senior, coach and contributor categories for 2026. Bill Belichick received a perfect score.

That's where things got interesting.

A thread.

[Jack M Silverstein 🇺🇸 @readjack]

19 NFL historians voted on the coach/contributor/senior group following PFHOF rules. Only one candidate was elected. Results and analysis are here.

@Profhofcantonf @pgconb @notinhalloffame @TheJeffSchlegel @2ndHandBurrito @LaverneusDingle @uptonbell I wonder how far the Hall will let them go with that.

@Profhofcantonf @pgconb @notinhalloffame @TheJeffSchlegel @2ndHandBurrito @LaverneusDingle @uptonbell What is the difference between making a "strong push to collect votes" and "attempting to make deals"?

Yesterday as I stood at my seat far after the game ended, I tried to soak it all in. I tried to remember and give a moment to every section and seat I’ve sat in throughout the place. The people I’ve gone with, the ones who have passed on, the ones I’m not so close with anymore, the ones I still go with. I thought of my childlike wonder when I first walked thru the stadium as a wide eyed 5 year old. The random strangers I’ve hugged and spent a game sitting next to becoming friends. The tailgates, the food, the parties, the got damn bus lot!!! (RIP) It may not of looked like much, especially to the world outside of our community but it didn’t need to look the part to be the one of the best game day experiences in the NFL. It was us, in every way. The new stadium has the bells and whistles, but it will also have 10,000 less of us. Screaming loyal fans replaced with more leg space and corporate suites. A lot of us being priced out after doing our part to ensure a new home for the team we love. So even though they’re just going across the street, in a way this felt like an ending. An ending of the way we knew Bills games, the way we felt a part of it, the way it felt like home, the way it felt like it was for us. I will miss this place and this era of my life so much. Go Bills. Forever, home 🏠

@pgconb @Profhofcantonf @notinhalloffame @TheJeffSchlegel @2ndHandBurrito @LaverneusDingle @uptonbell The question remains what kind of communication the Hall will allow in the meeting.

[Upton Bell @uptonbell]

My prediction Belichick is the only lock

[Jacob Infante @jacobinfante24]

#Bears QB Caleb Williams among NFL QBs in 2025:

• 3,942 passing yards (7th)
• 27 passing TDs (6th)
• 6 fourth-quarter comebacks (1st)
• 6 game-winning drives (T-2nd)

He's the first Bears QB to finish top 10 in passing yards since Erik Kramer in 1995.

[Jack M Silverstein 🇺🇸 @readjack]

@conace21 That came thru! Glad you got to be there

[Jack M Silverstein 🇺🇸 @readjack]

And that's the story of Marv Levy, the Bills fight song, the Chicago Bears and the city of Chicago. Go Bears!

#OTD in 1942, Rogers Hornsby became the 14th player selected to the @baseballhall, getting 78% of the vote. Still to this day, Hornsby's offensive brilliance rivals that of any player before or since. Here’s an in-progress painting of him with the Cubs at Wrigley in 1929.

Every Bills fan singing “Iris” by our hometown heroes, @googoodolls , to a Bills montage 😭🦬

@jmals24 @TFehn21 @NicholasMoreano This is a nasty thing to say about a person, especially considering you work in sports. Why say this?

[Jack M Silverstein 🇺🇸 @readjack]

@pgconb A Pro Bowl CB coached the only NFL team to not log a pick.

[Jack M Silverstein 🇺🇸 @readjack]

At 97 years old, Marv Levy remains a vibrant Bills booster and a true blue Chicagoan. The Bears are on the rise, albeit without the wins. And the Bills are in town. For fans braving the cold today, I hope “Bear Down, Chicago Bears” plays on repeat!
