Unbelievable. On top of everything, the man probably just stamped his ticket to Cooperstown.

Yeah, some Yankees fans are frontrunners, just like every successful team has frontrunners. I personally was decked out by my Dad and Gramps in Yankees gear since I was a little ittle baby, and could name the entire team when I was 3. I bleed Yankee pinstripes just as strongly as Bills Red, White, and Blue and Sabres Blue and Gold. Most Yankees fans are the same way.

You're probably thinking of Sebastian Janikowski, who did this either last year or 2008.

ahem... LET'S GO YANKEES

They said this about Brees, too, though. Too short, arm isn't quite strong enough. Just sayin'.

It's just a game. Save your anger for more worthy recipients...I believe there are quite a few dictators violating human rights out there.

I remember a similar discussion on this board a couple years ago. It devolved into the internet tough guys fondly reminiscing about their days on the block playing Smear the Queer and complaining how kids are pussies these days.

Those who are only casual fans of golf, remember the name Dustin Johnson (those who pay attention already know him). He's been on the cusp of greatness all year, but choked some opportunities away. I'll be looking for him to take the Ryder Cup by storm.

RIP x 3 As bad as bullying is at this age, I believe it will never truly go away. Young kids will always seek out those who are different to pick on. It's a human nature thing for a lot of people...elevate yourself by degrading another. It's not a pretty truth, but it's the truth. The answer, then, is to try our best to teach better coping mechanisms so that the results aren't this disastrous.

Sounds like a good idea to me, but you're spelling your buddy's name wrong.

Ralph has reportedly turned down multiple offers to move the Bills during his tenure, why would he not care?

I believe he would have kicked the field goal. With just 26 seconds remaining on the 15 yard line, 3 points is your expected value even if you convert the 4th down. As for the resulting FG by the Patriots, well the defense just let us down.

Dumb penalty, but I have to admit I laughed at the routine. Much more subtle and creative than anything OchoCinco has ever come up with IMO.

Ok, I'll bite...what does Stanford have anything to do with it? Ya know, Joe Montana went to the same school as Brady Quinn...

1590, 2360 hehe. But I'll be the first to admit that SAT scores don't really mean anything outside of basic aptitude. Not exactly a harbinger for success in college, if you ask me.

Well, this is an easy one...Campbell. The expected value of a 3rd round pick is a replacement level player. The expected value of a 1st round pick is an above average starter. Seeing as Campbell and Edwards are basically at the same juncture, how could Trent be the bigger bust?

Well, I beat them all in SAT scores, so there

I'll take Zooey Deschanel over Katy Perry (they have similar faces), but yeah she's a hottie. What I don't love is our stupid faux-Puritanical society, which somehow thinks this would "scar" 3 year olds.

Riddle me this, UFO believers...if this supposed alien culture is so advanced that they've mastered FREAKIN INTERSTELLAR TRANSIT, what could they possibly want from us? We would be lower than insects to them.

Yeah, I was trying to be wryly humorous.

Not bad, but the end-rhyme seems rather contrived. A more organic rhyme scheme might render this poetry rather evocative.

Honestly, I would follow whatever the new team is. Probably wouldn't be quite the same, but I'd be a fan. I mean, I don't live in Buffalo anymore so what's the difference to me if it's Buffalo or Toronto or somewhere else?

For parents who want to take their kids to a sporting event but are worried about drunken a-holes, baseball games tend to be incredibly family friendly. Some fans will knock back a couple brews during the game, but I don't think I can remember any more than a couple drunken encounters. If you live in Buffalo you can check out the Bisons, or Toronto and Cleveland are a virtual stone's throw if you're not interested in the minor leagues. I've taken my niece and nephew (6 and 8) up to the SkyDome (excuse me, "Rogers Centre") a few times and also The Jake (excuse me, "Progressive Field") and they love it! You can't beat the atmosphere of a ball game, IMO.
