Curious about why they would do that?  Do they think there will be some attrition because of the PSL thing?

Yeah, you are probably right. It was a bad calculation on their behalf. Kinda wild that they have that many season ticket holders... this is going to be a tough one for their owner... who seemed to finally get out of his own way... but it appears he is back to making mistakes again.

It would suck to be a Bills fan...and they have some long time devoted fans....to be excited about a new stadium and then find out you might lose you season tickets.  Just do not understand the thinking.  Seems to be yet  another example of how a lot of rich people (most of them I am guessing) don't give a sh#t about anyone other than themselves. Probably busy counting his money from the luxury suites...bet the number of those increased quite a bit.

Aaron Rodgers speaks about psychedelics and how it 'unlocked that whole world' for him

Rodgers described taking ayahuasca with his teammates as “radically life-changing,” and claimed many other pro athletes have reached out to him.

“I found a deeper self love,” said Rodgers of his ayahuasca experience. “It unlocked that whole world of what I’m really here to do is to connect, to connect with those guys, and to make those bonds and to inspire people.”

Just what Rogers needed...more self love.

Former Bucs QB Shaun King talks about the current QB "competition."

Kyle Trask stinks," King directly said. "Listen, if Kyle Trask had done anything in practice during his two years backing up Tom Brady, Tampa doesn’t go out and sign Baker Mayfield. He’d have had to have been terrible in practice. Because when you draft a quarterback second round, you want to be right. (General manager) Jason Licht wants that pick to pan out." 

Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said last week he may not announce a final decision until after camp concludes, but outsiders sound convinced there's already little drama regarding that choice.

lol...Bowles wants to play this out.  Guess he was impressed with the way what's his name handled the Panthers QB competition last year.

Should the NFL be looking into this?

An ayahuasca trip lasts around five hours, per Araujo, the first 30 minutes marked by a feeling of calm or sleepiness before the psychedelic effects kick in.

The most prominent effect is visions.

“In ayahuasca, the visions, most of the time, come with your eyes closed,” Araujo said. “Very intense with very different natures and contexts. It can vary from geometric images to a conversation with someone that you know. … A lot of times people feel as if they have died, and then they are reborn from that experience.”

So..how many kids and unstable people are going to try this because Rogers said it is wonderful.  And what could go wrong during a 5 hour trip where you feel like you have died?  What if they are already taking something else or are on medication?

IMO this is reckless and dangerous and could lead to tragedy if the wrong person tries it.  Rogers should just keep this sh#t to himself.

And oh, by the way NFL....

Psychedelics are illegal at the federal level.

Gonna be honest here...

Anyone who hasn't had a full blown psychedelic experience is missing out on a lot. The research going into psilocybin right now are really eye opening. 

Yeah, the NFL should be looking into it. But not for the reasons that you're suggesting.

I did  mushrooms back in college. I wouldn't want that experience now but it was something that I am not sorry I did. It opened my mind to other possibilities/realities.

Honestly, that's the first real indication I've seen that we had any interest in him.

May decide he'd rather have a pay day if no real contenders are willing.

We're only associated to drive up his value since we don't have a clear #1 imo
