I hate it when my underwear gets restricted.

No. It means we have fewer options.

Princeton, class of '91. UB Law '98 (spent my 3L at Cornell).

Penfield / 35 / Pittsford.

Yeah he won a lot this past season, didn't he?

And he got barely over the vet minimum to sign with them, plus a chickenfeed $500K signing bonus amortized over five years. They can cut his sorry rag-arm ass next year and barely feel it on the cap. I'm glad the NFL had a better handle on this guy's true value than some people here did. Sorry Stoj.

Judging from his performance at the end of last season, that's not all he's lost.

What I find funniest of all is that a Miami fan is eighth on the frequency list for today.

Good luck, then.

I would participate except the Bills don't have a first-rounder and I hate the 31 other teams so much that I couldn't conceive of even representing them in a mock draft.

In some ways Tucker reminds me of Jerry Ostroski -- not a great lineman, but nasty (I used to love when he got into it with Bryan Cox and the other Dolfelons) and able to play any of the interior positions. Tucker would probably win a spelling bee against Jerry O, but otherwise they are similar players with similar styles. Which is fine with me because I liked Jerry O.

Spicoli yields to JP in my avatar and profile line, at least for now.

Once upon a time, Steve Blass rose higher and fell further than even Rick Ankiel. And Dale Murphy might have been a Hall of Fame catcher if he hadn't developed the strange inability to throw the ball back to the pitcher, thereby necessitating a move to the outfield, where his 390 homers are a decidedly less-impressive stat than if he'd been a catcher. Then there's Chuck Knoblauch.

That's it, we're doooomed.

Fiedler is perfect for the Jets. They already have an offense designed around a quarterback with a rag arm, so if Chaddy gets hurt they won't miss a beat.

If my name was "Pork Chop" I'd be very nervous about joining a team that had Sam Adams on it.

Good lord this story scared the bejesus out of me. From http://www.sanybel.com/everglades_wonder_gardens.htm:

If you listen to the people here, though, the average person (at least on TBD) weighs about 250.

Greggo lost his team on the first day of the first training camp, with that flippin' air horn business.

I think it would be easier to list the things that WEREN'T in Carl Mauck's belly than to list the things that were.

I missed the part where assistants were fair game. Two words. Ronnie Jones.

And how did Hank Bullough do in the many playoff games he coached in Buffalo?

I know I'm making too many posts in this thread, but you know, we've had some really good coaches here -- Lou Saban, Chuck Knox, Marv Levy -- and some really bad ones -- John Rauch, Harvey Johnson, Jim Ringo, Hank Bullough, Gregg Williams. We haven't had very many "just mediocre" coaches.

Kay Stephenson was not a bad coach. When Ground Chuck quit to go to Seattle, you could see the writing on the wall. All the old veterans Knox brought with him to Buffalo had retired, Fergy was at the end of his useful career, and Ralph (at the time) was still a cheap bastard. One wonders how Kay might have done if Ralph had signed Jim Kelly in 1983. Now Hank, he was a bad coach.

Hank "Mr. Malaprop" Bullough. "They took the sails out of our wind today." Going from Hank to Marv must have set some kind of record as far as the greatest IQ jump between coaches in history.
