Throwing snowballs? They almost got hit in the helmet. Pussies.
You obviously have not seen the film. Mahomes was running up to a kid to give him a gift and some Bills fan threw a snowball that almost hit Mahomes in the helmetless head.
Playoffs game? Makes sense. But if it's regular season, good seats should cost $50. Bad seats = $10-$20.
I don't think that's the case in the NBA anymore. Luxury boxes? Yes. Regular seats? Probably not. Personally I don’t understand why people feel the need to live their lives vicariously through a favorite sports team and or player(s).
We all needed an escape. That's why many fans stopped following NBA after LBJ lectured us on BLM.
Read that as Chefs.
I can understand Chefs complaining about no hot water.
But what I really hate when I’m cooking is snowballs.

I love that Chefs commercial—it is so cute.
For example;
Patrick Mahomes and his wife went to eat at a local restaurant. The buzz spread around that Patrick and wife were there. These people were his fans. They loved him.
Do you know what his fans did ? They let Patrick and his wife have a nice dinner, in peace and quiet, without bothering him for signatures or handshakes or selfies with him.
Do you know what Patrick did ? He paid everybody in the restaurant’s food tab.
That’s the kind of guy he is.
Did you see any direct quotes from the players ? This is a reporter relaying 'what he overheard' and it came from both teams.
I agree. If fans can't afford to take their children to the stadium. Then you won't have fans in the next generation.
The snowball(s) that were thrown at Patrick Mahomes were after the game play had ended, but what is not mentioned is that there were earlier incidents where the snowballs were thrown at players DURING PLAY.
IMHO, the reason the REFS didn’t make any call on it was because it was ‘a Bills Fan throwing it, and it missed the target (a Chiefs player) and hit a Bill’s player.
The way Mahomes walks is due to ankle injuries.
Usually it's only IF that wife or girlfriend is a huge celebrity.
That kind of thing always makes me wonder.... How does a company like Pfizer have $25 MILLION (+) in spare cash to throw at these players ?
BOTH teams got hit by snowballs. Doesn’t make it right.
That’s what I mean.
Agreed, that’s ridiculous.
I mean, it’s not like it was Santa being pelted with batteries or something.
Okay...I take it all back. He’s a good guy.
Pfizer made over one billion off the COVID-19 vaccine
True. Just one of many 'vaccines' and medicines manufactured by Pfizer.
Still, how do they manage to make that much profit ?
“how do they manage to make that much profit ?”
Most big pharma companies have one or two drugs that they make most of their income on. That is because they have seven years to make it before their patented product becomes genenric. Then anyone can make it. For example, Pfizer had Viagara. They made a sh#t load of money on it. They could charge almost anything they wanted at first and older men would buy it. Now, it can be made by any pharmacy in the world. So, the price drops and so does their profitability.
This is the case for Ozempic right now. Ely Lilly is the current patent holder on this drug developed for diabetes. It recently received the official okey dokey from the FDA for off label use for weight loss. It will most likely be the most profitable single drug this year because of this. Obesity and diabetes go hand in hand. However, now there are a lot of women(and some men) taking to drop that extra 10-15 pounds. It is a lot easier than going to the gym. FYI, Ely Lilly stock tripled over the last year.
Pfizer, Modera, Astra Xeneca, Johnson & Johnson(to some extent) made multiple billions off of the covid-19 vaccines. Literally hundreds of millions(maybe billions) of people took that drug. The best part for the drug companies was that they got paid for it by the governments. Plus they gave them IMMUNITY for any SIDE EFFECTS. People died, had strokes and other life altering side effects that would have put any other major pharma corporation into bankruptcy court.
