It was a 45-minute discussion too.

A big fat :I starred in Brokeback Mountain: to everyone connected with this fiasco.

That was Varitek.

I don't like any of those named choices. McNair can still start, Matthews is retiring, Couch can't play, and Warner, Fiedler and Garcia all think they're starters. We need a solid veteran backup who knows he's a backup.

Jason Garrett will come cheaper and is a better mentor.

Vaya con Dios, Drew. I'm sorry it didn't work out and I hope you have plenty of good football ahead of you... in the other conference.

The only place I want a crystal chandelier is in my dining room.

He did until he threw that TD pass to Takeo last year!

Sounds like someone got hosed during rush week...

I had to laugh at this quote from the site though:

Sigh. Last year I didn't find my SI swimsuit issue until three weeks later when I was lying on the living room couch with my arm draped over the cushion... I reached back and there it was, stuck between the cushion and the back of the couch. Apparently when it came my wife just shoved it back there in disgust and forgot about it. On the plus side at least I know where to look for it this year!

The other thing you people are overlooking is that for some unfathomable reason, Fiedler still thinks he can start in this league. I don't want some jerkoff coming in here with a chip on his shoulder from the years he was stuck on the bench or in another country thinking he's going to make up for lost time by starting in his dotage -- and in so doing hurt the development of the guy who's supposed to be the starter. I already saw that movie and it sucked the first time.

If that were so, then Alex Van Pelt would have broken all of Dan Marino's NFL records. Don't forget also that the Ivy League season ends in mid-November. Hanover before Thanksgiving ain't Buffalo at Christmas.

Here's what a couple long-time Sabres had to say (in the ESPN story):

The only reason we watch is that Jerry (one of the last two standing) is from Brockport, though he seems to have disavowed everything that is WNY about him.

:I starred in Brokeback Mountain: Fiedler. He's the last quarterback I'd want in here.

How about the game where he hung Thurman out to dry on a poorly thrown screen and pretty much ended Thurman's career? Did that make you laugh and love watching a "game"?

Funny thing. Not that I'm an RJ fan (I say a pox on both their houses), but when RJ left the field in Nashville for the final time, his team was AHEAD. Flutie's wasn't.

Yeah because he won that Miami game the year before, right?

Especially the Canadians who came in with their parkas stuffed with cans of Molson, smoked throughout the game, and repeatedly slurred "Come on, let's see some FWOOTIEball, eh?" Sat next to a group of those fools all during the '98 and '99 seasons. :I starred in Brokeback Mountain: Flutie.

Who won that game? Incidentally, "the Flute" was 3-11 in that stint for 64 yards. Here's a description of the play you're talking about: 1-10-SD 12 (8:23) D.Flutie in at QB. 7-D.Flutie pass to 80-C.Conway to BUF 41 for 47 yards (23-P.Prioleau). Pass tipped, bobbled and caught over middle at 50. That took them to the Bills' 46. After that and a false start, he completed a ten-yard pass to Jonathan Peelle. Then LT ran for one yard. Then Flutie missed Curtis Conway on the sideline and Christie came in to kick a 53-yard field goal. Flutie then completed one of his last nine passes in crunch time, including overthrowing two receivers in the back of the end zone to end the game. I guarantee you the crowd was a lot louder on those last two plays.

That's true. Rob Johnson was a pretty mobile QB, his other faults notwithstanding. What? You don't remember the bomb RJ threw to Moulds in the San Francisco game to jumpstart not only Moulds' career but the entire 1998 season?

The Twin Cities are one of a very few metropolitan areas with teams in all four major sports, and you call them a "small market"?

Theesman just saw Brady and said "There it is, if there's a rock star in professional sports, that's it right there." And he's STILL washing Brady's balls. Just as Lito Sheppard picked off a Brady pass.

This guy's e-mail address needs to be published here.
