  1. Maybe the "B" on the shirt was a misprint??
  2. My wish is that it's a happy and memorable Christmas for my two boys. My four year old is at the age that lasting memories start forming and he has a memory like a steel trap. My two year old may be too young to remember but I hope it's fun for him, nonetheless. Congrats, LA. I truly believe that Christmas is for kids. I've been more excited about this holiday every year since the birth of my children...excitement I haven't felt since I was a kid myself.
  3. You beat me to it, BiB. The Bills and felons are the only two teams without a road win (ugh!). The law of averages finally catches up to the Bills and they win.
  4. Thanks, Rich. Still looking. Anyone? Anyone......................
  5. If they don't he'll probably wish they had. Strange as it may seem for convicted killers, rapists, etc., they don't tolerate child molesters and baby killers...kind of their own "self policing" code. Peterson's toast, either way.
  6. I wish you could go, too...and they are good seats. Let's go guys and gals...someone out there has to know somebody who doesn't have tix yet and wants to go. Plus they get they added bonus of sitting with yours truly!
  7. 1st degree with special circumstances for Laci = Life in prison with no chance for parole -OR- the death penalty. 2nd degree for unborn Conner = 15 years to life with chance for parole. Penalty phase to commence November 22nd with judge's decision by November 30th, per CNN & Fox News (TV - saw it around 4:10 EST).
  8. Huh? 1st degree with special circumstances for Laci = Life in prison with no chance for parole -OR- the death penalty.
  9. Justice WAS served: 1st degree with special circumstances for Laci = Life in prison with no chance for parole -OR- the death penalty. 2nd degree for unborn Conner = 15 years to life with chance for parole. Penalty phase to commence November 22nd with judge's decision by November 30th, per CNN & Fox News (TV - just watched).
  10. "Dan Marino's son comes out of the closet and professes his love for his transvestite dolphin partner."
  11. I'd categorize myself as #3. I can't stand the "Chicken Little" and "gang attack" mentalities. While I get enjoyment out of each and every win, no matter the Bills' record, I am not so blind as to think they are going to the SB after each win and I recognize their deficiencies. I don't think they're going to the playoffs this year but until they're mathematically eliminated I won't give up hope, either. Hence, my avatar sig line. I guess I have some #1 in me, also.
  12. Not sure how many people check the Trading Post board and I'm really short on time, so... I'm heading up to WNY with my wife and kids on the 19th. We have 9 tickets together, but 3 people in our group are unable to attend. My sister and her husband just bought a house and can't make it and a friend of the family from Grand Island is out, as well. I was looking to sell all three (but would sell one or two) at face value. We are in Section 329, Row 10, Seats 8-16. We've been up in this section before...they are high, but the view is great. When I ordered them, I asked for "best available" and these are what I got. Anyway, with the ticket charges and tax, etc. they came to $52.00 each. If you're interested, please let me know, ASAP. I'll be out of town on business from the 15th - 18th and will have limited internet access. I'll be back home and heading to WNY on the 19th. "PM" me to exchange phone numbers/contact info. Thanks, Ray
  13. Congrats! Isn't that "I never believed I could love someone so much that I just met 3 days ago" feeling unbelievably awesome?! Every parent knows exactly what you're talking about. That feeling overwhelmed me when my now four year old son came into the world and repeated itself when my now two year old son came along. Enjoy the simultaneous agony and ecstasy for they do grow up fast! Godspeed to Mom and her recovery.
  14. I think that last week showed McGee's play is "slipping".
  15. Ditto. Department of Defense - civilian (2001-present)
  16. Many thanks to the people past, present, and future who protect(ed) our cherished freedoms. God bless.
  17. Great post! My sons are 4 and 2. The older one, especially, may be getting into sports in the next year or so. I'll encourage them in whatever they choose...if it's sports, great. If not, that's fine too. I just fear that too many parents and coaches today lose sight of what it means for kids to play sports. These kids (and, evidently, the parents) need to learn how to win and lose gracefully and play within the team concept. When you're that young it shouldn't be all about winning and losing. ICE, I think you handled that situation about as well as could be expected, under the circumstances. Kudos. BTW, don't let the guy's comments get to you. There's an old saying that I try to live by: 25% of the people you meet will like you for the wrong reasons. 25% of the people you meet will like you for the right reasons. 25% of the people you meet will dislike you for the wrong reasons. 25% of the people you meet will dislike you for the right reasons. It's only the last 25% that should concern you.
  18. I don't think so...even if it could be accomplished from a salary cap standpoint, it would be a PR nightmare for SD. They had a chance at Robert Gallery who could have protected Brees and sprung LT for years and instead ended up taking Rivers with, in essence, the first overall pick all the while with Brees in the fold. Their front office would look totally inept. As for Brees, I think that Dallas makes a lot of sense, unless they are totally sold on Drew Henson. I think the dulfelons make a serious play for him but not the Packers. Favre will be around for a couple more years (barring maybe a SB win), IMHO.
  19. I'm all for moving Vincent to S and letting McGee mature into a good CB...but not this week. I don't want TV "experimenting" on Sunday against the Putz.
  20. I was thinking the same thing. He could contact former HOF voter (and huge RW supporter) Larry Felser. Felser, no doubt, still has plenty of connections at 'The Buffalo News' and around the NFL. He'd probably have some good ideas as to the best place or most effective way to start this grass roots campaign.
  21. It's still on but it's on life support, IMHO. A couple of Empire Sports Reports a day are the only reason for watching. Sad, what was once a lifeline of Bills and Sabres news (especially for us out-of-towners) is a mere shell of its former self and ready to flatline. Howard Simon's recent departure seems to be the final nail in the coffin.
  22. As soon as Spurrier is off the golf course.
  23. He wasn't, nor were any others. How the hell do you make a 'D' play honest with no WRs on the field??! Let's put 11 in the box and dare you to throw...to whom?????
  24. Ooops! Posted my above before seeing your reply...quit reading my mind! (I know...a short story, indeed).
