  1. This is also why learning yoga via videotape is impossible. On the plus side, you have a bit more deniability if you accidentally leave the tape in the vcr afterward.
  2. Thank you for understanding OUR point!
  3. The young Bledsoe did something Manning hasn't yet done, which is take his team to a Super Bowl.
  4. Looks like someone needs a refresher math class! :w00t:
  5. I can still see Greg "Tinker" Bell taking it to the house on the first play from scrimmage.
  6. Reminded me of the play at the Ralph in '95 or so when the Jests started rookie Everett McIver at left tackle. McIver was a converted D-lineman and had no business on the O-line that day, particularly since lined up across from him was a guy named Bruce Smith. The stojan hit the fan when McIver flinched just before the ball was snapped. Bruce blew past him and absolutely HAMMERED Boomer Esiason, who, being a lefty, had a nice clear view of Bruce bearing down on him. Bruce and Boomer flew through the air for about five yards before Boomer's head landed with a sickening thud on the Ralph's hard carpet. He didn't move for about ten minutes. I think he still has no memory of the ensuing six weeks.
  7. Not even close. Sorry.
  8. Not only that, but consider that three of those INTs came in one game (which we won handily anyway), meaning that in the other five games (three of which were on the road) he was only picked off twice. Also consider that he came out of (I believe) three of the six games early, which denied him the opportunity to pad his stats against defenses he'd already strafed. That should get the haters going.
  9. Cris Carter isn't much better than Marino, if he is at all.
  10. Nothing would stop a few thousand people without tickets from congregating just OUTSIDE the stadium and clanging cowbell all game long, now would it?
  11. His timing looks off. Maybe that's just from the receivers having to play with Crystal Chandelier the last two weeks.
  12. He needs cowbell.
  13. He missed a 44-yarder for the Rams. Anyway, glad to see Koy Detmer is shaving that furry neck of his.
  14. :I starred in Brokeback Mountain: Wilkins!
  15. Let's not forget little Chad Pennington has his own issues with his local media. Might turn out to be a wash as far as fragile egos go.
  16. They can bring Joe Greene, Lynn Swann, Jack Ham, John Stallworth, Mel Blount, and Franco Fuggin Harris to this game if they want. We have COWBELL!
  17. Yes, he played the first drive. Think he's coming out now though.
  18. Nice going there by the Rams D. :I starred in Brokeback Mountain:
  19. The Dog-Ass Jets fans must be having conniptions right about now!
  20. The worm turned in the first Miami game sometime early in the fourth quarter. I was sitting in the tunnel end zone watching the Bills drive to the other end. Somewhere around midfield, Drew dropped back and Zach Thomas (I think) came on a delayed blitz. Drew sidestepped him, Thomas went careening down the field, and Drew stepped back into the pocket and rifled a pass for the first down. It happened so fast that my buddy and I looked at each other and said "Did you see that? Did that really happen?" It was the first time in ages I'd seen Drew display any kind of pocket presence. Since then he's just gotten better and better. Yes, the line play has improved. Yes, Willis is a better blocker than Travis. Yes, Evans gives Drew another target so he doesn't have to lock on to Moulds. But Drew has DEFINITELY improved by his ownself, and I trace it all right back to that play. Does anyone else remember the play I'm talking about?
  21. Ralonzo = the little kid in "The Emperor Had No Clothes." Seriously, I thought it was funny in a ha-ha kind of way when I saw it, but I never really understood why it was so legendary either. I just didn't want to be the first one to say it. That said... I still think we need MORE COWBELL!
  22. Um... they're both horses.
  23. As far as I can remember, the only two Bills' home playoff games that were ever blacked out were the Comeback Game against the Oilers and the one against Jacksonville. The Oiler game was somewhat understandable. We'd just gotten punked the week before by that same Oiler team and were heading into the game without Kelly and Biscuit. Add to that the fact we knew that a win would send us to Pittsburgh where we always got our ass handed to us. Plus we were coming off four seasons in which we'd gone to the AFC championship game three times without ever having to play a wildcard game, which the Oiler game was. The Jacksonville game was also a wildcard game. We'd barely snuck into the playoffs after beating Kansas City in a winner-take-all match in the season's final game, after losing our previous three. I can tell you with pretty decent certainty that even though both games were blacked out, there were at least 70,000 people in the stands. That's enough to sell out many stadiums, including Jacksonville's. Hell, these days now that the Ralph has a smaller capacity by about 8,000, both of those games probably would have sold out after a corporate sponsor (or Ralph himself) bought the last couple thousand tickets. We had eight other home playoff games between 1989 and 1996. All sold out, including the divisional game against the Raiders following the 1993 season when it was 30 below. Bob's right. Jacksonville doesn't have anything to be complacent about. They didn't even come close to filling that place in their biggest game of the season, coming off a huge win at Green Bay, and it's disgraceful.
