  1. Whew, I'm relieved to find out this thread is about a delinquent wide receiver. For a minute I thought they were going after one of those smarmy limies.
  2. Stop leering at the children, Tommy! After your little pansy dance at Carnival, people are starting to talk.
  3. I'm in... same sentiments, different drummer...
  4. http://www.dogfish.com/brews-spirits/the-brews/occassional-rarities/120-minute-ipa.htm
  5. ...MC?
  6. Was Switzer's point of view ever relevant? He was a validation of Jimmy Johnson's collection of talent... an (almost) English speaking version of a crap flinging monkey with a team on autopilot... more social experiment than coach. How 'bout dem Cowboyz.
  7. You can't tell when you're being smoothered with sarcasm? You prefer your taunts with a few more wrinkles?
  8. No way Thad Lewis, Dennis Dixon, a 5th and a 6th gets you Hamdan... all that Chroise don't come cheap.
  9. Dr Trooth, you ignorant misnomer. My personality profile is not at issue here, any more than is your inability to achieve orgasm. The issue is the Bills. How can we expect to have the confidence of any football team when we stab one of our most faithful allies in the back. I suppose you'd like us to conduct our football fandom the way you conduct your private life, hopping from bed to bed with anyone that can do you some good. Then what do you have? An old, dried-out scuzz that no decent football team would want as a fan. Is that what you want for the Bills? It's too late for you, "Trooth", but our fanbase still has some dignity left, you hosebag! But I suppose that sort of fashionable promiscuity means nothing to someone like you, Trooth, who hops from bed to bed with the frequency of a cheap ham radio.
  10. Lest we forget that they didn't actually draft Rivers, but instead got picks and Rivers in exchange for Eli, whom they did draft. Talk about a GM playing with house money.
  11. I didn't see the game. How did the Bills D return an INT for a TD and FG sans PAT in one play?
  12. I had to check twice to verify that wasn't posted on The Onion.
  13. We would never have been this bad if Wade Phillips would have just worn an effing headset.
  14. Of course they were more pissed. Bengals get the 2nd seed if we beat NE*. We get... to feel a little less frustrated about the season?
  15. I know. The view sucks... But the risk of having a drunken ad executive land on your head is much less up here.
  16. Though he will never say why, Kiko admits that he is reason that Ritchie is Incognito.
  17. The doctor said I wouldn't have so many nosebleeds if I kept my finger out of there.
  18. 4) Hype. Which among those sports is more recognizable to a larger audience than the NFL? 5) Resources. If you were looking to fund your research, which of these sports would you choose?
  19. Not sure if you're headed down this path as vehemently as I am, but here is my take. In the US in 2013, 5300 people in 100,000 between the ages of 65 and 74 were diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. 17000 in 100,000 between the ages of 75 and 84. It's one of the most common diseases of aging. According to the Deadspin article, the PET imaging that is being done to "diagnose" CTE uses the same markers that are being studied to "diagnose" Alzheimer's, but the pattern is different??? They're looking at middle aged former athletes with anger issues and depression who spent a third of their lives hitting their heads against a wall and saying that because the findings on an unvalidated test are more localized, instead of the diffuse findings on this unvalidated test that you would see in an older population with Alzheimer's, that this must be reflective of CTE and not Alheimer's? You can't diagnose Alzheimer's with a PET scan, but now you can diagnose CTE??? I'm not disputing CTE exists. I'm not disputing the value of the work that is being done on it. I AM disputing the significance of how the "facts" of this condition are being reported. And I AM disputing that any person who ever got hit in the head and has an amyloid plaque or some abnormal Tau deposition has CTE. People age... therefore, brains age...and aging results in abnormalities, regardless of whether or not you spent your life in a bubble or hitting your head against a concrete wall. Search the scholarly literature for anything other than descriptive data on CTE and you come up empty. And before 2010, barely any literature existed at all. Right now, IMO, this is essentially an irresponsible paparazzi driven whirlwind because of who it is affecting and how this story is being told.
  20. Please tell me that it doesn't hang in the closet next to your Tyler Thigpen, Levi Brown and Brian Brohm jerseys.
  21. Preceded by slight **sigh** and accompanied by utter lack of facial expression.
  22. Seems about right. IMO, if his passes attempted exceed the teens we're screwed. Gotta go back to the Ravens gameplan.
  23. Exactly... I mean, Levitre certainly would have made sure Manuel got out of bounds or slid after picking up the first down, and no question he would have helped protect Lewis's ribs on that shot he took on the read option play. He probably also could have held Kolb's hand when he walked across the slippery mat, and kept defenders from breathing extra hard on his concussion prone head, as well.
  24. So your prediction is not only will we beat the Chiefs, but we'll steal two of their victories, as well? Or were players in violation of NCAA eligibility rules for two of those wins for accepting handouts from an alum? My Tuel prediction is it will be midway through the second quarter at the earliest before that "I'm SO f$%d" deer in the headlights look leaves his face. I was expecting that we'd win this game because with Manuel or Lewis we were better than the competition that KC faced so far... with Tuel, we ARE that competition.
