Metal Man

I watched the Pats*/Colts AFC championship game from the 06 season yesterday on ESPN's Greatest NFL Games. Wasn't old school Bills kickin' a55 but it still provided a slight NFL fix. Plus watching the Pats* lose an 18 point lead in a championship game is almost as great as watching the Bills smoke people in the glory days. Almost.

I can't recall ever reading anything about PED testing in golf.... Anyone know if such a thing exists?

Actually I think that Matt Stone hasn't been involved in writing or directing any episodes since at least 2007. Maybe Parker is getting tired of continuing to carry the torch for the show?

With the salary cap and allowable money spent being equal across the boards for all 32 teams it seems to me that the "no draft NFL" would be more about the historically successful franchises than their market size. In other words the top rookies would only want to negotiate with the perennial winners first followed by the more desirable places to live. Obviously those top teams couldn't sign everyone but it would likely mean year after year only the players those winning and geographically desirable teams didn't want would filter down to teams like the Bills. Essentially it would probably be the same as if teams like NE, Pittsburgh, Indy, Dallas, and Miami always had the tops picks and teams like the Bills, Browns, Lions and Bengals were always picking last.

Wasn't that actually Bledsoe he was talking about that day? I was there too and I thought that was the case. Plus IIRC the last new uniform was 2002, a couple years before the Bills drafted JP.

Dave Mathews by a mile for me over everyone listed so far.

Maybe it wouldn't be considered a major motion picture but I am still surprised no one has mentioned Troll 2. I always thought it was the universal standard for a terrible film. 0% on Rotten Tomatoes. For very recent though I thought Avatar was pretty terrible. Cool visuals wore off after about 15 minutes and after that it was a lot of predictable and boring Hollywood movie cliches. One of the few times in my life I fell asleep in the movies too.

It definitely is annoying me a bit right now and I do feel a little of my NFL love slipping away. However like most people said in this thread it won't really start to be evident unless this continues into late August.

The best thing about baseball, and what sets it apart from all other sports for me, is that there is no time kept. Therefore there is no milking a clock and wasting time to slow down another team from scoring to protect your lead. Each team has 27 outs to make something happen and even if you are behind you are still assured at least one more chance to try and come back to win it.

1. Cam Newton QB - Buffalo Bills (not rooting for this) 2. Blaine Gabbert QB - Carolina Panthers 3. Von Miller LB - Denver Broncos 4. Gabe Carimi OT - Miami Dolphins 5. Kyle Rudolph TE - NY Giants

Not at all. I want to avoid these when sober. Restricting your movement is a pain in a55.

Excellent read. Thanks for sharing.

Wow, the gaming experience sure is a lot different today than when I was 13. Now, no way... at 13 though... why not?

Late extended lunch? That is what I am going to try and pull off.

Thanks for the input so far guys. Unlike Chef, suggestions and opinions on things in the area are welcome and appreciated.

It is looking extremely likely that I will be heading to San Diego next month for work and remaining there for most of the time through the rest of 2011. This will take me through the entire 2011 season, if they play it, so I was looking for some information on watching Bills games out there. I have been to the Bills Backers website and the San Diego Bills Backers Club website so I have the basic information. I am looking for some details from people with first hand experiences out there that I can keep in my back pocket until the fall rolls around. I realize this is very early to be looking for this kind of information but the better part of work this week for me has been dealing with the details required for this trip and I can't think of any detail more important than the when/what/where of Bills game viewing.

Yeah, it is funny how your perception on that stuff changes over time. I guess my comment on this cover with Brady shows how 10 years of losing has my Pats* hate being celebrated more than my Bills love. As for the rest of the links people are posting... I should have guessed this would become a swimsuit issue thread even though I did put a disclaimer saying excluding swimsuit issues.

Ha, I am older than you. No doubt there are a lot of awesome Bills covers from the glory days but seeing Brady on the cover of a magazine looking the fool is priceless IMHO. Especially when considering all the covers he has done for GQ, People, and other non sports mags. No hair and no UGGS present here, just Brady getting killed and looking like he is about to cry from fear. With all the Brady slurping from the media we as Bills fans have had to endure over the last 9 years, as well as the rest of the non-Pats* fans out there, a picture like this can't be celebrated enough.

Nice, that is great too, somehow never saw that one. Great to bring back the memory of being at that game, sadly there are a lot of Pats* games I have been to since then that I would like to forget.

Sorry if this has been posted. But even if it has it warrants extra sharing because all Bills fans will appreciate the look of fear in Brady's eyes. http://cdn3.sbnation.com/imported_assets/636480/227190130.jpg I'll admit I am a little jealous it wasn't a Bill inflicting this damage but I'll take it just the same.

Has to be the Steelers. Two weeks of Rex and the rest of his team running their mouths up to the Superbowl would be too much for any non-fan of the Jets.

I always thought your zodiac sign is determined by what you are actually born under, not just when your birthday falls. In other words where the stars were when you entered the world is what gives you the personality stuff of your sign. So that being said I would think this would only affect babies born going forward, right? Not saying I believe in any of this stuff anyway, just curious why people seem to be so fired up about it.

For food or drink near HSBC try: http://www.pearlstreetgrill.com/ Only a block or two from the arena. They have great beer and food but if you want to eat dinner there go early because it gets packed for Sabres games. The place is huge though and by mid march you might get lucky with the weather and have it nice enough to use their porch as well. In any case it is always my favorite place to go before/after a Sabres game.

There has to be something more to it than just that. I fly a lot and it seems to me with all the books, magazines and sleeping very few are ever paying attention to any of those emergency instructions.
