While Braun and Lance both have shown to likely be sociopaths... Lance is by far the bigger of the two douchebags. He ruined the careers of many former teammates and bullied anyone that got in his way. His ending result on the planet is still a net positive for the work that he did for LiveSTRONG, but as a person, they just don't get much douchier. Rodgers tweeted "ya I'd put my salary next year on it" The key phrase is "I'd". This is not the same as saying "I put my salary next year on it". He states that he would (most likely if someone was going to pony up with the matching millions on the other side. I don't believe the reporter in question "pony upped" with the matching funds. Rodgers owes nothing.

While I'm sure she's equally stunning in real life... there's a whole lot of photoshop in that picture.

Takeo Spikes followed me into the men's room in ATL after a flight from LAX, and took the urinal right next to me. I've never been so pee shy in my life.

Low Risk, High Reward.... just the kind of player we need.

POST OF THE DAY!

I would put the over/under at 4.5 wins. So if I saw a line of 3, I would bet the over.

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,The courage to change the things I can, And wisdom to know the difference.

What about just logo? I'm thinking a life ring buoy with a wagon in the middle. If you need the text- Circle the Wagons

Filthy Oar - the best boat name ever, though not exactly Bills themed.

If Geno starts day 1 as QB, wouldn't that make him front runner for Offensive ROY according to another thread, killing our chances of having both offensive and defensive ROYs? (sarcasm)

I'm taking the under, predicting 5 wins. While I like the direction we're going, the Bills are asking for strong contributions from rookie and second year WRs. There's a learning curve in the league, and most WRs don't come into the league ahead of that curve. You're also asking for a rookie QB to make reads. While the system may be "more simple" than his college program, he'll have to make the decisions much faster due to the increased speed of the game. Throw in the shuffle of OLineman, and I see a lot of scrambling in EJs future. I'm more optimistic about the defense's chance of stepping up, but are we really ready to call the Bills contenders at this point?

I think Moses would disagree. Their poor "management" skills led them to lose control of their workforce. Ultimately, their business plan was unsustainable, and the relatively high cost of the niche product they created left them with very limited exit options.

"so that an executive can receive his yearly bonus"... the more accurate statement is "so shareholders in Disney can receive their anticipated earnings and/or dividends". This includes executives, individual investors, mutual fund owners, etc.

You can grow without a plan, but it rarely works to make broad based cuts without one. To simply say "we're cutting 10% across the board... make it work" doesn't work because you end up cutting muscle and bone along with the fat. That said, if there is a rhyme and reason to the decision, an employer does not owe it to the employee or a community to keep a job that is not productive. Has ESPN become bloated? Is the entire "campus" atmosphere really necessary to offer quality programing? How many of the 50 variations of ESPN are profitable (ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, Deportes...)?

Radio Call - The whole stadium is being Manuely Stimulated!

He's joining a Citizens on Patrol program back in Alabama ala the great Police Academy movies of the 80's.

Maybe he was exposed to lead as a child, maybe the frontal lobe of his brain doesn't function properly, who knows. In the end it doesn't matter. The result is that is currently not serviceable as a WR in the league.

I believe that NYS law is pretty clear that an engagement ring is a conditional gift. If they break-up prior to marriage she has to give it back. Texas law dictates that it be given back if she is the one that breaks it off. If he broke it off, it's hers to keep.

Do you honestly think if Marrone thought that Nassib was a "star" he would pass up a sure thing that he already knew well for a project with upside knowing that his career will likely hinge on this decision?

Nassib was only given 1st round consideration because of the connection with Marrone. Nobody that actually watched any SU football this season thought that his "fair market value" was 1st round worthy. Correction: The Jets hyped Nassib so that the Bills might be persuaded to take him at 8 and leave Austin for their pick. I'm glad we called that bluff.

Average? Name me 10 teams who would have rather had Fitz as their starter last year? Here are mine: Jets, Arizona, KC, Browns, Jaguars... Tennessee?, Vikings?, Bucaneers? Dolphins?

If you're over 21 years old, you shouldn't wear sneakers unless you're working out anyway. Buy pairs of brown and black shoes and alternate so that they have time to air out between wearings. Keep them polished and looking nice.

So that's a base of what...$7 million per year with incentives closer to $10 million?

Tebow will not be content being a number 3 QB. I'm not saying he'll be militant, but the headache caused by having to defend your decision not to play him every week just isn't worth the effort for backup/gimmick player.
