I was looking for the hyperbole, but it seemed serious. Especially when he mention that the lady now works for Marino.

Listening to Tony Kornheiser on the way home today, I heard Dan LeBatard speak about all things Miami. He relayed a story that Saban has issued an order that NO ONE say hi to him in the office. A memo was issued to all employees not to greet or talk to the coach. Well, some "sweet woman" apparently forgot - said "hello" to him and she was fired. She now works for Dan Marino's Foundation.... Dan also stated that JJ lost his interest in coaching when he looked down into his mother's casket and wondered WTF he was doing with his life.

A few observations: 1. IMHO, your screen name is a bit bland. It blends in with the 100's of screen names that contain "bills", so it is hard to distinguish you from the countless others that comoe through. 2. Your lack of avatar means that your screen name is even more important. A unique avatar will help to visually identify yourself to others as you define your online personality. 3. Building relationships. This was easier in the past when the number of posters was smaller and the OT posts were mixed in with the main posts. Two people can make the same post - one a newbie and the other an old-timer and people will naturally respond more to "a friend". Participate more in the OT posts, identify people with common interests, and try to get to know people beyond their stance on JPL and you will find your threads being more active. 4. I can't think of a fourth thing... Welcome!

How about when you buy a single item that is about the size of your hand and they throw it in a bag? Is it too hard to carry one small item out of a store?

does this quote strike a bell? Sorry, but many, many ABX tests are done on the listeners own equipment listening to THEIR choice of music. It has been proven again and again and again. Anyone who claims to hear anything different is most likely experiencing the placebo effect. I once had another audiophile tell me 10 years ago how the best sound he ever got out of his system was with "hook-up" wire and it sounded better than his ultra-expensive speaker cable. I'm thinking he had some extra earwax on one of those days.

I'm thinking the guys a few cubicles over were complaining....

here is a page that has some ABX data: http://www.provide.net/~djcarlst/abx_wire.htm

Let's just say whenever someone hears the vast difference between interconnects, it is time to roll the eyes and throw the audio BS flag. Time and again, double blind studies have shown that to be BS.

oh man, is this another "sausage arms" thread?

bzzzzzt.

Jason Kidd? Is that you?

it makes you wonder why he is considered a potential top 10 pick - no? Clearly, something is amiss.

well, if it did - you would probably get more dates... but, I'm not talking about THAT knob. "The new knobs are custom made with beech wood and bronze where the bronze is used as the insert to mount to the stem of the volume pot. The beech wood is coated several times with C37 lacquer for best sound as pointed out by Dieter Ennemoser. How can this make a difference??? Well, hearing is believing as we always say. The sound becomes much more open and free flowing with a nice improvement in resolution. Dynamics are better and overall naturalness is improved." http://www.referenceaudiomods.com/Merchant..._Code=NOB_C37_C

I thought the Republicans finally did away with all the old people?

What was it about Price that makes you say that? He catches the ball with his body, he rarely made tough grabs, he fumbled quite a bit on his "second efforts", he allowed way too many interceptions be caught when he was the target, he didn't block for crap, and then there was the infamous play he just stopped running after an INT. He played soft and ran his mouth... He may not be the anti-Christ, but he is the anti-Football player in my book. I assume he would be the 1st guy shot if he was holed up in a bunker (by his own troops).

let's just pass on these types of posts from there...

yeah, but reality sucks.

Now you have someone to chat about the Lifetime Movie of the Week with...

Comcast and Sony will launch a horror films on-demand cable, Internet and wireless network on Halloween this year, an executive at the top U.S. cable operator said Sunday. linky This is a great idea - I can't believe no one thought of this sooner! It's like printing your own money...

talk about reading till the last page of the sports section...

what is silly about this notion is that it is a foregone conclusion that Buffalo fans will be pissed if the team is moved. Bitching and moaning to the NFL offices accomplishes nothing because it isn't really news that Buffalo will be pissed should this pass. The only thing that would help change this is NATIONAL outrage, via the media, on what the new CBA means to some teams. Unless influential sportswriters and talk show hosts beat the drums, no letter writing, no phone calls, no protests will make a bit of difference. The NFL needs a black eye, or the pulling of sponsorship money, to think twice here.

Maybe I'm just becoming apathetic (as opposed to pathetic) in my older age, but we have been talking about the Bills moving for so long that enough is enough. I'm sick of this tired played out scene straight from the Deer Hunter where every few years we hear "click!" and the chamber spins again. I'm already fed up with Directv and the rising cost of the NFLST, their "SuperFan" bull sh--, commercials before and after every TD, PAT, and KO, and superstar athletes who actually think they're worth more than a warm pint of urine. Somehow I want to see this resolved... not delayed - RESOLVED. Hit the bullseye or get it off our effing backs already. I'm probably too old to shed a tear over a sport these days, but if this plays out with Buffalo losing the Bills, God forbid I bump into Danny Snyder at a Nats "Free Bat" promotion game...

I guess that will be TBD....

Then why can't Ralph, while he is alive, sign one big ass snakes on a plane lease with the city of Buffalo making it near impossible to move the team w/o the entire league willing to hand over $100M????
