  1. I wonder if he's still playing because the Bills are still mathematically alive. Because I'm a glutton for punishment, I was able to get the NY Times playoff calculator to show the Bills in the playoffs. It has the Broncos, Ravens, and Dolphins falling apart for this to happen. That part's OK. The part that I have trouble with is it requires Buffalo to win the last three games. Not happening.

     

     

     

  2. This week at Miami...

     

    R 23 Jerome Boger

    U 49 Rich Hall

    HL 5 John McGrath

    LJ 45 Jeff Seeman

    FJ 118 David Meslow

    SJ 87 Walt Coleman IV

    BJ 112 Tony Steratore

    Replay official: Carl Madsen

    Replay assistant: Eugene Cunningham

     

     

    Oh boy, we got a Walt Coleman on the crew!

    Rich Hall - from "Not Necessarily The News"! He was funny! #obscureeightiesreference

  3. One thing I do agree with him: his comments on how there are so many flags. He's right! It has gotten to the point that whenever a pass play is over, I wait five seconds to make sure there is no flag. It takes away from the excitement of the game. At least it's not just the Bills getting screwed. St. Louis got screwed with some bad calls last night. It always seems the "good" teams get the benefit of the doubt, but not so much for teams like the Rams and the Bills.

  4. Pegula just cleared ~$1.3B on his recent land sale (beyond selling his company a few years back for several $B). Why does the team need to take on debt if his bid wins?

     

    If your debt costs, say, 7% but you can earn more than 7% by investing it, then I can make a case for financing. Back to the game. Thad looks bad.

  5. To me they are all starting to sound the same. That's too bad. I'm not a big fan of John Murphy either, by the way. I hear too many mistakes. Yesterday I heard him confuse the Redskins with the Bills a few times. Even though I was listening I could tell by the crowd if it was a good play for the 'Skins or not. He couldn't.

  6. Sorry for the random thought, but talk of old playoffs got me thinking about things that didn't exist the last time we made the playoffs:

     

    iPods

    Flip phones

    Facebook

    Broadband Internet

    DVRs

    9/11

     

    I used AOL. Jean shorts were acceptable for men. People still went to Blockbuster to rent movies ... usually VHSs. EJ Manuel was about 10 years old. An 18 year old likely wouldn't even remember the Bills ever being in the playoffs.

     

    Wait - I'm wearing jean shorts today. Is that bad?
