  1. Plus on Mt Hope you get people from Strong Hospital as well as UofR students. OK this one pushed me over the edge. I'm trying the plate there! Never been to James Browns, but damn that does look like a good breakfast menu. A bit far for me to go for breakfast, but it also is on my list now I know this thread started for the out of towners, but I'm getting some good info too!
  2. I enjoyed them on occasion as a change of pace. But they were just too sweet for me most times. I suspect the same may be true for a lot of people. You used to be able to get their sauce at Wegmans and Tops here. I'd get some for the kids to put on their chicken nuggets back in the day. Not sure if you still can get it there or not.
  3. Its jefferson road. But I have found the food to be pretty much the same at both places. But I don't get to the downtown one much any more.
  4. I used to be able to eat stuff like that, then I got old. It would probably kill me now. I'm not sure about high falls anymore. The high falls brewery used to be right there and was pretty good, but it's been closed for a while now. Not sure what, if anything, is in it's place. I don't get downtown much at all anymore. And calling the barrel a peeler is an insult to all the fine Canadian establishments!
  5. Yeah that's why I asked, that's how they serve them there as well
  6. If you ask for the wings well done at Jeremiah's I think you will like them better. Do you like the wings at Duffs in Buffalo?
  7. I have never been to Dogtown or Tap & Mallett. Clearly they are now on my list of places to try If you don't mind the drive, try Bad To the Bone BBQ out in Williamson. Better food (particularly the pulled pork) than both the others in my opinion! No atmosphere at all though, just food. http://bad2thebonebbq.com/
  8. As usual, if you take the OP's "koolaid" version and average it with this "debbie downer" version you will more than likely come up with something close to what is likely to happen.
  9. Really, Richmonds for wings? I always found their wings to be average. Good food there otherwise though. Interesting how people have different tastes. For example, I prefer Sticky Lips to Dinosaur. Oh, and Rochester has a taste of Buffalo now as well ... Mighty Taco!
  10. Geez that sucks! With Verizon you just went in and asked. No BS.
  11. You can sometimes see players at the Pittsford Pub (http://www.thepittsfordpub.com/) that is near SJF. You can get decent bar food there. Also there is JoJo's which is in the same location. But JoJo's is high end and expensive. Jeremiahs has the best wings in Rochester in my opinion. Holy Habanero (my fav) if you like them on the hot side. Bee Sting are pretty good as well if you like them on the milder side. But don't get the boneless. It sounds like a good idea but they are very different from normal wings. As far as hotels go, there is a Holiday Inn Express at 2835 Monroe Ave, Rochester, NY 14618 which is pretty close to SJF and should be less expensive than the Radisson. I have never been in it, but they are usually nice. There are also some restaurants near there including the usual fast food places like Wendy's and McDonalds. There is also a Wegmans down the street that you will pass going from there to SJF. And a Italian place across the street called Mario's. And a wood fired pizza place right next door that isn't bad. The only downside to that hotel is that they have the street all tore up in front of it right now. They still exist, 691 Mt Hope Ave, Rochester. They are far from "traditional" wings, but I like them as well once in a while. More of a honey based sauce which makes them sweet.
  12. So Sammy has a good, not great, year and nearly everyone else seemingly has a great year and they only go 9-7?? if things go as you predict, I would think the Bills would be looking at more like 12-4.
  13. You might be overstating it just a tad. It is a great contract for him. Big bucks and only a 2 year contract, and he can opt out after the first year.
  14. JF to the Browns. LeBron back (at least for a year). The city of Cleveland is on the rise, the economy etc. is really looking good. Hopefully Buffalo can recover someday like Cleveland is now.
  15. That would get around the field goal issue I brought up as well. Another interesting idea.
  16. The way the rules are for PI for example I'd say it already is an offense first league. How about the defense needing to actually stop the opponent in order for the offense to get the ball.
  17. I was just watching Rugby (an interesting game when played at a high level) and noticed that when a team scores, they receive the ball on the ensuing kickoff instead of kicking it away like they do in tackle football. I guess the theory is that a team should keep the ball on offense until the other team stops them. Changing tackle football to be this way could make for more interesting games when the score is close at the end, eliminating the onside kick which rarely works anyway. Of course it could also make blowout games even more lopsided. One potential problem I see is field goals. Teams could just keep kicking them all game and getting the ball back. Maybe the rule would need to be you get the ball back only after scoring a touchdown. Thoughts?
  18. You obviously aren't from Rochester and didn't bother to research at all to make an ignorant statement like that about Golisano (even enough to spell his name correctly). If it came down to those two, I would pick Pegula as well. But only because Golisano would buy the team for the same reason he bought the Sabres, only to keep them in Buffalo (you must have forgotten that as well) until he could find a long term owner who would. Whereas Pegula already would be a long term owner that would keep the team in the area.
  19. Here is some more detailed information. http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-1/2014-Training-Camp-night-practice-ticket-information/22e4ada3-d208-4c65-ab50-78ab08d31747?campaign=fb_buf_article
  20. Or maybe it's because a lot of people realize that although it could be a nice "feel good" thing to do for some, it is really meaningless when it comes to the Bills staying in WNY or not.
  21. After the first 12 carries of the season he will still be at 2000 +/- 5 yards to go. Then after the next carry 1950 to go.
  22. Social engineering is tough in cases like this where there are so few people with legitimate access. Probably easier to hack the website, if someone were so inclined.
  23. My advice would be to listen to the doctors and do exactly what they say. Often times athletes are in such a hurry to get back to it that they start working out too soon and damage it even further. Let it heal.
  24. As much as he needs. When (if) he really has it together during the preseason, then bubble wrap him and put him in for a series or two for the rest of preseason. But if he is sucking, play the hell out of him until he works himself through it. Entire games if need be. Manuel CANNOT suck if the Bills are going to do anything this season.
  25. Kinda cool that they are giving ST holders first shot at tickets this year.
