The Press Box Has Empty Seats but John Murphy Still Doesn’t Have One
Back on August 30, I wrote about what I called “The Curious Case of John Murphy’s Bills Credential.” A media source told me Murphy had been granted a credential for the first preseason game at the new Highmark Stadium, although he ultimately didn’t attend, and then was denied a credential for the regular season.
The explanation I was given at the time was that Murphy was working part time. There was just one little problem with that explanation. Vic Carucci also works part time and, according to my source, had been credentialed.
So I asked the obvious question: What changed between then and now? I even wrote, “HMMMMMMM I WONDER?????” because Murphy had recently written a column questioning whether first-year head coach Joe Brady had enough experience to lead a Super Bowl contender.
Well, Alan Pergament talked to Murphy for his latest Buffalo News column, and now we have a whole lot more information.
And you know what?
HMMMMMMM I STILL WONDER?????
Pergament reports that Murphy said Bills vice president of marketing Chris Jenkins told him in mid-July that he would receive a credential for the season. Murphy also said he was shown where he would be seated.
COME ON.
This makes the part-time explanation I was given a month ago look even more ridiculous. John Murphy didn’t suddenly become part time in August. He was already part time when, according to Murphy, a Bills executive told him he’d have a season credential. He was part time when they apparently showed him the freaking seat.
And I can confirm this as a source provided me the seating chart for the Carolina Panthers preseason game.
So what changed?
Pergament reports that more than a month later, Murphy wrote a column questioning Joe Brady and that two days after the column ran, Murphy received a text from Channel 4 sports director Josh Reed saying the station was unable to get credentials for Murphy and photographer James P. McCoy because part-timers don’t receive them.
Two days.
Did somebody at One Bills Drive read the column and suddenly discover Murphy’s employment status?
“WAIT A MINUTE. SOMEBODY CHECK THIS GUY’S HOURS!”
When Pergament asked Murphy if he believed the Brady column had something to do with losing his credential, Murphy said: “I think so, but I don’t know.”
I’ll go further than Murph.
I think it did because I’m also capable of reading a calendar.
July: You’re getting a credential, John. Here’s where you’re sitting.
August: John writes something critical of Joe Brady.
Two days later: Sorry, John. Part-timers.
That’s one hell of a coincidence. And let’s remember the apparently dangerous opinion Murphy expressed.
Pergament describes Murphy’s column as arguing that Brady’s inexperience as a head coach could be the one thing preventing the Bills from winning a Super Bowl.
That’s it.
He didn’t call Brady an idiot. He didn’t demand he be fired. He didn’t accuse him of running an underground dog-fighting ring in Orchard Park. He wrote a football opinion about whether a rookie head coach could successfully navigate a Super Bowl-or-bust season.
CALL THE FBI.
And somehow the story gets even more ridiculous from there.
Pergament reports that Murphy later wrote another column predicting the Bills would win 10 games. According to Murphy, a Channel 4 digital producer told him the station needed to pause his column and couldn’t publish it because of pressure from the Bills.
Excuse me?
Channel 4 couldn’t run a 10-win prediction column? What was in the second half of it, nuclear launch codes?
If Murphy’s account is accurate, this is where Channel 4 comes off looking like cowards to me. You’re a news organization. You have John Murphy writing commentary about the Buffalo Bills. The Buffalo Bills allegedly don’t like something John Murphy wrote.
Shouldn’t your response basically be, “Thanks for reading”?
Instead, we’re apparently protecting Western New York from the dangerous thoughts of John Murphy.
Is that how we’re treating John Murphy?
The guy suffered a stroke. I wasn’t the biggest fan of Murphy when he worked for the Bills as he was definitely drinking the kool-aid and doing the Bills dirty work. But he’s the guy who spent decades covering and broadcasting this football team. He was the voice for the team for 20+ years.
What exactly is he allowed to write?
Josh Allen is good. The Bills are good. Joe Brady is good. The new stadium is good. Everything is good. Go Bills.
END COLUMN.
And we’re talking about a 10-win prediction!
That’s not exactly a scorched-earth takedown of the organization. Apparently predicting that an NFL team might lose six games is now too spicy for publication.
People have been predicting the Bills to disappoint for 65 years, but apparently when John Murphy did it, Channel 4 needed to activate the emergency broadcast system
Pergament writes that the demand for press-box credentials is extremely high, with the Bills saying the new press box has fewer seats available than the old one and that there are more media requests than available seats.
That’s completely believable. It’s the first season in a brand-new stadium. Every outlet that has ever written the word “Bills” probably wants somebody in there. Of course space is at a premium.
There’s just one teeny, tiny problem.
According to my source, there were unassigned seats all over the place, including seats right next to the Channel 4 contingent. And let me make an important distinction here. I’m not talking about no-shows. If somebody receives a credential and gets sick, misses a flight or decides not to attend, that’s not the Bills’ fault.
I’m talking about seats that, according to my source, were not assigned to anybody. Dozens of them throughout the press box. Think I’m bullshitting you? Well here’s the seating chart and check out the WIVB side.
So please don’t tell me there simply wasn’t a chair available for John Murphy. Apparently there were chairs available for people who DIDN’T EXIST. I don’t know if Pergament was free-styling the in demand part or if he was tipped off, but for a primetime game and it being the first regular season game ever to have that many open seats tells me the math ain’t mathing.
Pergament also reports that the new 97 Rock booth is smaller than the old WGR booth, making it difficult for Murphy to watch the game from there.
Fine.
Nobody is suggesting they shove John Murphy underneath Chris Brown’s desk. There’s a press box. It apparently contains chairs. According to my source, some of those chairs didn’t have anybody assigned to them.
Here’s an insane idea:
Put John Murphy in one.
Then we get to the part of Pergament’s story that actually makes me feel bad for the guy.
Murphy told Pergament: “They didn’t fight for me.”
That sucks.
We’re talking about someone who called Bills games for decades, suffered a stroke and ultimately had to give up the job he’d spent a huge chunk of his life doing.
Pergament recalls Brandon Beane telling Murphy when he stepped away from the radio job that he would “always be a Buffalo legend.”
That’s nice.
Apparently Buffalo legends are welcome forever, provided they don’t criticize the head coach. I’m not saying John Murphy is constitutionally entitled to a press credential for the remainder of his natural life because he called Bills games. Credentials aren’t gold watches.
But this isn’t even really about that anymore.
If Murphy had applied for a credential in August, the Bills said there wasn’t enough space and that was the end of the story, fine. I’d probably still think John Murphy deserved consideration, but there wouldn’t be much mystery.
That’s not what Murphy happened.
Pergament reports that emails and texts to Channel 4 sports director Josh Reed and news director Josh Roy weren’t returned.
Guys.
This would be an excellent time to return a phone call. We know that the Bills and channel 4 have a relationship based on the Bills having games on their channel and Eric Wood does another podcast with the station. We also know that Josh Reed has a really good relationship with Brandon Beane. Maybe too good..
The bottom line is this: the Bills have way too much power in that town, and I think they’re bullying the local media and it is concerning the reaction.
This isn’t my normal bitching about the Bills bro beat taking selfies, reviewing chicken wings or reporting on Josh Allen handshakes. This is about sports directors, editors and GMs either not fighting back or not knowing how to.
And what better time to flex that power? Newsrooms are being gutted and budgets are being slashed while the Bills remain the biggest game in town. For the team to get upset over one pretty lame column questioning Joe Brady’s experience—a column probably nobody read anyway because you have to fight through 73 pop-ups—and Channel 4’s response was essentially crickets.
Murphy was a loyal soldier for decades for the club. Then he finally wrote something the Bills apparently didn’t like and, in his words, “They didn’t fight for me.”
That’s the part that should bother everyone. If John fucking Murphy isn’t important enough for a Buffalo television station to fight for and the Bills can just throw his ass to the curb, imagine being a 26-year-old reporter who discovers something the Bills really don’t want published.
That’s the part everybody covering this team should probably think about because this is how the stories the public needs to know but the team refuses to acknowledge get ignored.
STATHEAD OF THE WEEK: 2, 3, 4
I’ll admit something before we get to this week’s Stathead rabbit hole: I’ve been a Dalton Kincaid hater.
Not because I thought Kincaid sucked, but because I wanted the Bills to draft a wide receiver in 2023. Then they took a tight end in the first round and started talking about playing two tight ends all the time, and I thought the whole thing sounded dumb. You’re trying to maximize the prime of Josh Allen and your big offensive idea is MORE TIGHT ENDS?
Then Kincaid couldn’t stay healthy, Dawson Knox was still here, the whole 12-personnel revolution never exactly turned into the Greatest Show on Turf, and every offseason it seemed like we got another picture of Kincaid’s calf. Look how beefy his calf is! Look at this calf! This is the year! I was sick of hearing about the fucking calf. I wanted to see the production.
Well, two games into 2026, I’m seeing it.
Kincaid has 12 catches on 14 targets for 225 yards and a touchdown. That’s an absurd 18.8 yards per catch, and when I started screwing around on Stathead to see where that actually ranks among tight ends to start a season, it got even more ridiculous.
Since 2000, only Jared Cook in 2018 has had more receiving yards through his team’s first two games. Cook had 229. That’s it. Kincaid is second with 225, ahead of Jimmy Graham’s 224 in 2013, Brent Celek’s 222 in 2012, Dallas Clark’s 222 in 2009 and Mark Andrews’ 220 in 2019.
And it’s not just because the Bills are force-feeding him the football.
Among the qualifying tight ends in my Stathead search, Kincaid’s 18.8 yards per reception ranks third since 2000.
Dallas Clark opened 2009 at 20.2 and Travis Kelce was at 19.5 in 2019. Then comes Kincaid.
Think about that combination for a second. He’s second in yards and third in yards per catch. Usually if you’re piling up this many yards, you’re getting peppered with targets. Kincaid has only 14. Jared Cook needed 16 targets to get his 229. Jimmy Graham needed 23 for his 224. Kincaid has 225 on fourteen.
Then I sorted by success rate, and that’s where I really had to shut up.
Kincaid has an 85.7% success rate, which ranks fourth among the qualifying TE starts in this search since 2000. The three ahead of him are Rob Gronkowski in 2021 at 92.3%, Travis Kelce in 2015 at 90.9% and Kelce again in 2021 at 86.7%.
So here’s the Stathead of the Week:
225 receiving yards — 2nd since 2000
18.8 yards per catch — 3rd
85.7% success rate — 4th
I spent three years asking what exactly the Bills were supposed to be getting out of drafting a tight end in the first round when they already had Dawson Knox. I complained about two-tight-end sets, injuries and enough offseason calf photos to fill a fucking medical textbook.
Two games don’t settle what Kincaid’s career ultimately becomes, but this is finally the version that makes the whole idea make sense.
Less calf pictures. More of this.
VIRAL BUFFALO MOMENT OF THE WEEK
Ever have one of those moments where something sounds good on paper, and then you actually see it and immediately think, “Oh, this ain’t right?”
That’s exactly how I felt when I saw poor Bruce the Bison.
Yes, I remember when Tre’Davious White used to try to convince Kim Pegula that the Bills needed a real buffalo to run out onto the field before games, and at the time I thought that sounded pretty fucking cool. A giant buffalo charging onto the field while 70,000 drunk Bills fans lose their minds? Sign me up.
Then I saw a poor baby bison sitting in a cage at the new stadium and immediately went full Matrix: “Not like this. Not like this.”
I don’t know what the alternative is, because I’m also not suggesting we just open the cage and let Bruce run wild through Orchard Park. But if the Bills are really serious about developing the area around the stadium, which Tyler Dunne said on WGR Thursday that they are, I have an idea.
Build a little animal area next to my proposed Buffalo Beer Hall of Fame. Give Bruce some actual space, add a few more buffaloes, maybe throw some goats in there for the kids, and now we’ve got the Orchard Park petting zoo. Dad gets to look at the history of Labatt Blue while the kids go see Bruce.
And yes, every buffalo should be wearing a little Bills hat.
Drunks can come over before the game, say hello to Bruce, wish a buffalo good luck, stumble over to the Beer Hall of Fame, have six Blue Lights and then walk into the stadium.
You’re welcome, Terry.
I just developed your entire stadium district for free.
DAD SHOTS
—When the Bills offense gets rolling, it can turn into an avalanche. Against the Lions, the Bills scored four straight TDs. It got me thinking…how many times in a game have the Bills scored 4 TDs on 4 straight possessions….so call this a bonus stathead..
Since 2020, Buffalo has scored touchdowns on at least 4 straight offensive possessions 8 times:
By comparison sake, I looked up the Chiefs to see where they were at and they have done it 5 times.
Kind of shocking neither team did that against each other.
—One of the best parts about living in our neighborhood is that we still have so many mom-and-pop restaurants and shops. Ditmars has been home for us for five years now, and one of the things I’ve always loved about it is being able to walk one street over and actually buy something from a person who owns a store instead of having another Amazon package show up at my door.
Two of our favorites were The Tiny Owl and The Brass Owl, both owned by the same person. Tiny Owl was for kids, Brass Owl was more for adults, especially women, and we spent a lot of money in both.
Brass Owl was one of my cheat codes for buying my wife gifts. They had tons of Christmas ornaments, jewelry, clothes and random little things where I could walk in, find something she’d like and feel slightly better about myself because Jeff Bezos wasn’t getting another $47 from me.
Tiny Owl became part of our life once Andy came along. That kid had all sorts of stuff from there because apparently I developed an obsession with buying rattles and pacifiers. They also had story time every Wednesday, and I used to bring Andy. It wasn’t just a store we occasionally bought shit from. It was part of having a little kid in this neighborhood.
And then Tiny Owl closed.
The owner was pretty open about what happened. Costs went up because of tariffs, shipments became a problem, the rent went up and then Target opened around the corner and sales dropped. Eventually there was just too much working against a small children’s store.
Then Brass Owl closed too.
And I’m not going to pretend I’m some patron saint of small business. I’ve shopped at Target. I’ve gone to Five Below. I’ve bought plenty of shit from TJ Maxx and God knows how many Amazon boxes have arrived at our apartment. But whenever I could get something from the place around the corner instead, I tried to do it.
That’s why what replaced these stores makes the whole thing even more depressing.
Tiny Owl became this weird AF cell phone store. Maybe it’s locally owned and I wish them well, but how many cell phone stores do we need? It feels like there’s one every six blocks where somebody can fix your shattered iPhone screen while selling you a case with rhinestones on it.
But Brass Owl?
Brass Owl is becoming a fucking Dunkin’ Donuts.
A DUNKIN’ DONUTS.
Now, I could write an entire Dad Shots about Dunkin’ as a product. The donuts are fine. The coffee is mid. I understand people love it. Whatever.
But here’s the problem:
WE ALREADY HAVE DUNKIN’ DONUTS.
In fact, we have so many Dunkins around here that I’m starting to wonder if Ditmars Boulevard is part of some psychological experiment to find out how many identical coffee shops human beings will tolerate before snapping.
There are now four Dunkins within roughly a six-minute walk of us.
And the new one is ONE FUCKING BLOCK from another Dunkin’.
What the fuck are we doing?
It’s one thing when chains move into a neighborhood. That’s going to happen. This is New York City in 2026, not Bedford Falls. But replacing a neighborhood shop that had been around for more than a decade with another location of a chain that’s already one block away feels especially depressing.
Brass Owl wasn’t just somewhere you bought something. Tiny Owl wasn’t just somewhere you bought something. They hosted events. They knew people. Parents brought their kids there. You could walk in looking for a Christmas gift and walk out with something you wouldn’t have thought to search for on Amazon.
You can’t replace that by dropping another Dunkin’ on the block.
And I know the answer isn’t to scream at everyone who walks into Target or orders something from Amazon, because I’m guilty of doing both. Sometimes they’re cheaper. Sometimes they’re easier. Sometimes you’ve got two kids and don’t feel like dragging everyone around Queens because you need diapers and fucking batteries.
But when you have the choice, spend the extra few bucks at the place down the street.
Buy the birthday present there. Buy the Christmas ornament there. Get lunch from the family-owned restaurant. Buy the stupid little thing you probably don’t need but your kid will love.
Because one day you’re going to walk by that store and it’ll be gone.
Then a few months later you’ll see construction happening inside and wonder what’s replacing it.
And eventually the sign goes up.
DUNKIN’.
One block from the other Dunkin’.
Support your neighborhood businesses, because apparently if we don’t, eventually every fucking block is going to be the same six stores.
—The Bills are debuting those Nickel City, blue-collar, gray, whatever-the-fuck-we’re-calling-them uniforms against the Chargers, which got me wondering: How have the Bills done the first time they’ve worn a new alternate look?
Since 2005, it’s happened four times. The Bills are 2-2.
2005 — Beat Houston in the blue 1960s throwbacks
2009 — Lost at New England in the white AFL 50th Anniversary throwbacks
2015 — Beat the Jets in the debut of the red Color Rush uniforms
2025 — Lost to New England in the debut of the Cold Front Rivalries uniforms
So the Nickel City uniforms will break the tie. More importantly, if they lose, I’m blaming the gray jerseys.
—Last week, I was kind of shocked to hear Mike Florio on WGR 550. Funny enough, I remember Florio being on Brad Riter’s show almost 20 years ago, back when ProFootballTalk was basically this underground blog that would post every rumor imaginable and had a Photoshop guy constantly making fun of people. It was a fun product. Now it’s obviously this enormous national thing, and sometimes it feels more like an aggravating aggregation machine than the site I remember. But whether I love Florio or not really isn’t the point. He’s a big national name, and now WGR has him every week.
And he’s not the only one. WGR has Vic Carucci, Dion Dawkins, Connor McGovern, Austin Corbett and DJ Moore as regular guests. When the Bills and WGR split up, I speculated that maybe some of the money the station was spending on Bills radio rights could instead go toward paying for better weekly guests. I obviously don’t know WGR’s finances or what these appearances cost, but from the outside, it sure looks like they’ve decided to invest in making the daily shows feel more connected to the team and the national NFL conversation. As a consumer, I’m completely fine with it. Florio and Carucci aren’t necessarily must-listen radio for me personally, but they’re legitimate names, and I’m sure there are listeners who like them a lot more than I do.
And compare that with what we were getting before. Sean McDermott would go on Sal Capaccio’s Extra Point Show on Friday, basically tell us who was playing and who wasn’t, say almost nothing else, and then 20 minutes later walk into his press conference and tell everybody who was playing and who wasn’t all over again. What exactly were we getting out of that? Give me Florio talking about the league, Carucci talking Bills, and actual Bills players sitting down for weekly conversations instead. WGR may have lost the Bills games, but if some of that money and energy is being redirected into better guests and better content, I’d argue the listener is getting something much more interesting Monday through Friday.
I will say though, it feels like the special guests seem to be more on the Afternoon and morning shows, while Brad and Tim don’t seem to have gotten that “pay to talk” guest rub yet. 10-2pm radio spot isn’t exactly the money maker for sports by comparison to morning and afternoon drive, but they are going against One Bills Live.
—Is it just me, or is there ALWAYS a mad rush the morning after a Bills game for every beat reporter to tweet out the snap counts? People eat that shit up, which is completely fine. I like snap counts too. I just hope everyone realizes that Pro Football Reference updates this stuff basically overnight in every box score -for free- and you can go there and look at the entire team instead of waiting for 14 different tweets to tell you who played 37 snaps. Maybe I’m getting old, but the morning after is suddenly Money in the Bank, with every Bills reporter climbing the ladder trying to grab the briefcase containing Cole Bishop’s snap percentage.
And if you’re pulling the numbers from Pro Football Reference, that’s fine too. Just give them credit. They’re doing God’s work over there so the rest of us can pretend we spent six hours breaking down the All-22 when really we clicked on a fucking table while drinking coffee.
—Last week I talked about how much I loved that the Bills were going to play “O Canada” at the home opener. With everything going on between the U.S. and Canada right now, I thought it was a pretty cool gesture. But then I started wondering: Why now?
And then it was staring me right in the face.
The Bills have been making a serious business push into Canada. They partnered with Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment last year specifically to grow the Bills brand north of the border. Vince Carter and Tracy McGrady are minority owners of the Bills, in part because of their connections to Toronto. The Bills have done events with the Raptors, they’ve been expanding their presence in Canada, and, oh yeah, Rogers — the same company behind the old Bills Toronto Series — is in the process of taking full ownership of MLSE.
So is “O Canada” about the current political climate? Maybe. Is it about recognizing all the Canadian Bills fans who have crossed that border for decades? Absolutely. But let’s not pretend there isn’t a pretty obvious business angle here, too. The Bills want Canada. They want Toronto. They want Canadian fans buying tickets, merchandise and everything else that comes with being part of Bills Mafia.
And you know what? I’m completely fine with that.
Play “O Canada.” Welcome Canadian fans. Grow the fan base. Make money. Just don’t sell me patriotism when there’s also some pretty damn good business synergy sitting right there across the Peace Bridge.
—Colin Kaepernick was on the MeidasTouch Podcast this week, and he brought up something from the whole kneeling controversy that I had honestly forgotten about. Kaepernick went back to that 2017 meeting between NFL owners and players, and said Robert Kraft called the protests “the elephant in the room.” According to Kaepernick, Terry Pegula followed that by saying, “We need a Black face to help us end this.”
That sent me back down memory lane of what was actually being said in those meetings, and the Pegula stuff is still crazy to read. Pegula reportedly kept calling Anquan Boldin “Antwan,” while talking about finding a spokesman for the league. He even brought up the NRA using Charlton Heston as a figurehead as an example of what the NFL needed. Meanwhile, Eric Reid’s response at the time was basically: You already have that person. It’s Colin Kaepernick.
And this is where Kaepernick’s argument gets interesting. He told MeidasTouch that the owners were looking for somebody who could help “subvert the protests,” and he believes that eventually became Jay-Z. The NFL partnered with Jay-Z and Roc Nation in 2019, and Kaepernick argues Jay-Z stepped into the role of the Black public face the league had been looking for. That’s Kaepernick’s interpretation of what happened, but nearly a decade later, it’s pretty fascinating to hear him connect those dots himself. The kneeling disappeared, the NFL put money into different social-justice programs, Jay-Z became one of the league’s biggest partners, and the guy who started the entire conversation never played another NFL game.
—I’m not going to pretend I understand every fucking thing about Israel and Palestine. This shit has been going on forever, innocent people on both sides have suffered, antisemitism is very real, and I’d love to see a world where Jewish people and Palestinians can both live without being afraid of getting killed. But saying “Free Palestine” does not automatically mean “death to all Jews.” Supporting Palestinian people isn’t supporting Hamas, just like criticizing the Israeli government isn’t hating Jewish people. If we can’t make those distinctions anymore, we’re fucked.
That’s what bothers me about Robert Kraft’s role in the Ed Sheeran/Macklemore situation. Kraft confirmed Gillette wouldn’t allow Macklemore to perform, and the tour promoter says seven NFL stadiums objected to having him on the bill. And there’s some context here that shouldn’t be ignored: Kraft has spent millions developing American football in Israel, taken NFL legends there, and even had NFL Films document one of those trips. I can’t say money from Israel is influencing NFL decisions because I haven’t seen evidence of that. But I think it’s completely fair to ask whether these longstanding relationships influence how some of the most powerful people in the league view this issue. Especially when Kanye West can spend years making explicitly antisemitic statements, released a song called “Heil Hitler” and still perform at SoFi Stadium, while “Free Palestine” can apparently make Macklemore unacceptable at seven NFL stadiums. That inconsistency deserves an explanation.
—Allegedly! Andy has peed AND pooped in the potty. I say allegedly because neither one of these historic events happened in front of me or my wife. They both happened at daycare, and while his TAs claim they witnessed it, we remain skeptical because this kid is not exactly coming home and asking for the New York Times so he can spend 25 minutes on the toilet.
I don’t know why the TAs would lie about this. They don’t work on tips. There isn’t some potty-training commission where they get an extra $50 if Andy takes a dump. So I guess I have to believe them.
Meanwhile, at home we’ve entered a completely different developmental stage: Andy the Streaker.
The kid takes his clothes off and runs around the house naked, which would be harmless enough except he’s also discovered that apparently every piece of furniture needs to come into contact with his balls and dick.
The couch? Yep.
The chair? Absolutely.
Whatever Dad was just about to sit on? Probably.
FUN!
You know those studies that are always like, “Children who watch more than three hours of television per day are 37 percent more likely to become bank robbers”? I’m waiting for the study that tells me what a three-year-old repeatedly dragging his naked ass across the sectional predicts.
My current guess is that he’s going to become the 64-year-old guy at the YMCA who has absolutely no problem carrying on a 15-minute conversation with you completely naked.
We’ve also officially gotten rid of the binkies.
I’m actually going to miss them. That thing could calm Andy down like a horse tranquilizer. But he’s now chewed through two of them, and Mom finally made the executive decision: it’s time.
He still asks for one at night because that’s when he normally had it, and I’ve decided my strategy is to pretend I have absolutely no idea what he’s talking about.
“Binky? What’s a binky? Never heard of it.”
Basically, I’m Brandon Beane being asked if I had anything to do with Sean McDermott getting fired.No idea what you’re talking about. Next question.
And then there’s Baby Luke, who is doing great and apparently decided last week that our relationship had become a little too comfortable.
For seven weeks, I had successfully avoided being peed on.
Seven weeks!
I started thinking maybe I was actually good at this. Maybe I’d figured out the diaper-change angles. Maybe Luke respected me.
Then last week he pissed on me four times.
Four.
Apparently he was just saving it up.
Fucking prick.
