Normally I would give you crap about 1 yard difference but when it is a matter of doubling the total I understand the correction . I just don't think he has it anymore. Buffalo didn't sign him, Clevelnd cut him in the preseason, and the Pats* brought him in for a look but didn't sign him (when they had nobody to throw to). I think this had more to do with the Bills knowing they would be going with a couple of receivers in the draft and the numbers game not working out for Nelson. The numbers game did work for him in NY as the Jets needed warm bodies. See above. Cut from Browns in preseason. Looked at by the Cheats but not signed. It was Donald Jones (another TBD favorite) that was "cut" from the Cheats. Although it was actually a retirement due to kidney disease.

Who talks about how good Bowe is? I honestly dont' think anyone would list Bowe in the top 20 receivers in the game. Andre Johnson is better than Moulds ever was. I'm assuming you don't play fantasy football or ask this question of those that play fantasy football, not that it is the end all be all. He always ranked in the top 10 of receivers. He also is generally ranked in the top 30 of ALL skill players. This with him being older and some injury concerns. This is a very simple approach to building a team. So much more needs to be taken into consideration. Among them are age, injuries, and cost. All of these would point to it being a very risky move. See my point above. This is exactly the type of player the Pats* would trade away a la Richard Seymour. He is getting up there in years, has a couple more productive seasons left, and the price will be more than he is worth.

I'll disagree with you. Actually the Jets completed a very similar play in this very game. He threw the ball, the wind grabbed the ball, the wr made an adjustment. More times than you realize do qbs throw balls up and let the reciever adjust to it. Specifically on deep balls. Was it a perfect pass in a perfect spot? No. It was however, a pass to a spot that his receiver could make a play on it.

I disagree... He tried out with the Pats* earlier this year and didn't get an offer. He produced in 2011 and then tore his acl. That robs players of athleticism which he didn't have too much of to begin with (on an NFL player scale that is). You sure do love certain players though. At least you got Moorman and his 1 yard punt back on the team

Sorry mdh but I disagree. I would say 1 was pretty clearly Hendricks. Those elbows to the head sealed that round for me. Round 3 was very close as well and I could see gsp getting that round. 5 was his for sure. So 1 definite and 2 maybes won him the fight. Watching that fight, regardless off wear, it was clear to many many ppl that gsp lost. This to me was a case of gsp getting the benefit of the doubt for the first round bc he was the champ. That ended up being the difference in the fight. It was a terrible decision and I think Dana white actually did good damage control. When he says "Hendricks won that fight" many people agree with him and move on. I think it actually minimizes the controversy.

I'm hearing reports of rioting after the cortland Ithaca game but can't find anything about it. Anyone have any info?

I got 3 of them. I'm hoping to dispense them right around Christmas for a small profit. Although the temptation is to open one up and get busy on it!

Well I listened to the interview and think the OP is way off base. I didn't get any of that. As for those of you that are (over)reacting to his post, I suggest listening to the interview. He did get a bit snippy when they kept trying to be negative with their questions and paint him into a corner. He says he is trying to stay positive and suggested they do the same. Never once did he cross any line or even have his tone change. As for the Spiller comment that everyone is (over)reacting too, he didn't say he wasn't go to use him in the passing game, he said most rbs start out in the backfield and that is what they have CJ do. It wasn't that they weren't going to give him the ball or wanted to underutilize talent, it was that there are better (in his opinion) ways to get him the ball.

Women love Pinterest. Not sure why it is such a female oriented site but it is. There are some cool things in there but no I don't use it.

I'm actually going to disagree with this but I was there so my thoughts may be skewed. Cuse came out lazy. Cornell didn't. Cj hit a basket quick and the team seemed to wait for someone to step up. Luckily coney and fair did. They were down early bc cornell was making shots and out hustling them. Cuse was also cold. The press was what brought them back in it at the end of the first half and then they dominated the second half from tip. Coney was very impressive last night. Kid was on fire and dunked it with 2 hands on a breakaway! Su is very tall and long if he can space the floor they will do well this year. Coleman tried to assert himself which was nice to see but Christmas plays a very non chalant style. You could say calm cool and collected or you could say indifferent and lazy. I couldn't argue either way because I'm not sure. Ennis didn't look out of place on the floor but had some jitters. I think he's going to be alright though. One thing that stood out to me was that this team is slow. They aren't going to fast breaking much this year IMO. The other thing that stood out was Boeheim. He's a teller and screamer but not tonight. He was very cool throughout and doing a lot of teaching throughout the game. His demeanor was much nicer. It will be interesting to see if that sticks throughout the year or if it is just last night as he knew they were the superior team.

Did you buy EA Sports Madden between 2003 and 2012?
section122 replied to Just Jack's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Has anyone else not received their check? I was excited bc I had forgotten all about this but came home to nothing :-/. If you read the thread I earlier summarized just how bad of a company ea is. This money was their for the taking for anyone that qualified. It would be stupid not to make a claim. I didn't sue anyone and the money would be their regardless of me claiming or not. -
Alternative (to Hammer) parking options
section122 replied to Bills fan since 87's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don't leave until 1215 and am still in my seats before kickoff. They did close everything down so you need I walk through the main entrance but the walk is very quick. Add to that the ease of escape and it's a winner for me. I live too far away to park in hammers lot and have parked all over the place, California rd is the best for me. -

California Road! If you get there anywhere between 9 and 10 there will be a good spot for you. Getting out is fantastic. There is a cop directing traffic at the end of the road so the wait is extremely minimal. The walk isn't that bad and most places cost $10. All around great spot. -
I'm well aware of John Kruk and enjoy him. His All-Star game appearance with Randy Johnson still makes me laugh. That said "super world class hand-eye coordination" does not impress me as an athletic talent. If that is the case there is a whole generation of video game players that we would have to dub great athletes. It is funny the experience of d-bag soccer players that you had. I can't say I can argue strongly as I know many however for me it was always the baseball players that stood out as d-bags. I live in Auburn and we have a low A ball team here. This isn't much higher than HS but these guys walk around like they are in the big leagues. You should hear them talk to girls . In college I really didn't care for many of the guys on the baseball team either as they were all so full of themselves. Then again I was probably that d-bag soccer player

Everyone will notice. There is no hiding on a soccer field either. (my tone for the following question is friendly and please read it as such) Have you ever played soccer? Yes some fat kids play soccer, some bad athletes play soccer - they play defense until their parents stop forcing them to participate. On a baseball field there IS hiding. Don't all poor players go to right field? Athletic ability is needed much more for soccer than baseball. This phrase has never been uttered by a soccer player but it has by a baseball player. “I ain’t an athlete, lady. I’m a baseball player.” Calories burned doing the folowing activities: Competitive Soccer - 1 hr - 953 Casual Soccer 1 hr - 667 Baseball - 1 hr - 476 Why has this never happened after decades of hearing it will? It is actually the fourth most attended professional sport (Nascar, NFL, and MLB). It is growing in this country. It HAS happened. Over 6 million people attended a MLS game last year. That number doesn't include the international friendlies or other professional leagues (USL - Rochester Rhinos league among others). It is shown on major networks on the weekends. With as many kids playing, and demographics changing, I don't think it is a leap to think that this growth will continue.

What does playing baseball have to do with playing soccer? Many many kids played both growing up. That said, I have no idea what your point is here? Baseball players are tougher than soccer players or maybe better athletes? Please explain this comment better I would love to hear it. Soccer can be incredibly corrupt. Name me a sport that isn't. Dang it's like soccer banged your wife! You verge on being upset that people are starting to come around on soccer. It is THE game everywhere in the world. As the hispanic polpulation rises in America doesn't it make sense that interest levels would rise? Maybe soccer isn't recruiting new fans as much as the demographic is changing and now includes people who were fans. I did happen to catch an Arsenal Liverpool game this weekend (Saturday afternoon) on NBC. NBC has nothing to do with ESPN who "has been trying to shove soccer down our throats for years." How can you even say that? Is soccer ever covered on Sportscenter save for a few top plays? Is there Soccer Tonight? Soccer is starting to creep into mainstream sports. Why is that upsetting to you? I get not giving a crap but to get upset about it?

Jimmey Graham for Demaryius Thomas straight up
section122 replied to Peytons Neck's topic in Fantasy Football
I'm currently weighing a Jordan Cameron for Jordan reed trade. Guy needs a te for next week but I'm not even sure it's a great deal for me. I too have jimmy graham and he is a monster. What do you guys think about that trade? As for yours I like the idea of offering Cameron for Thomas better or trying to get a rb. With Thomas your giving up a bye week. Your also getting someone who shares touches with a lot of weapons. Graham is the bar none best te in the game (at least in ff) it would take a lot for me to spare him. -
I know most of you aren't local but I got season tickets this year. Let me know of there are games your interested in and I may be willing to part with them. Duke unc and Indiana aren't available though.

Official 1st Half Thread Bills vs. Saints
section122 replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Those ribs are broken for sure -
I know some of you are in the syracuse area so you'll know what I'm talking about but.... I love dinosaur BBQ. It is delicious and not really all that expensive. Dammit though the location and wait suck terribly. I'm sure there is nostalgia with that building but they have long since outgrown it. Trying to get lunch in there is an experience to say the least. I usually end up skipping it for these reasons.

The actress that plays Hayley (Sarah hyland) is 23. I agree with pooj Julie Bowen is incredibly hot and I prefer her to Sophie. I love the ends of the episodes where film clips from his childhood are shown comparatively to the cast. It might be that I was born in 81 so the show and main character are right up my alley but I am laughing out loud at this show and most sitcoms don't get that reaction from me. I'll have to check out bar rescue... What's the premise?
-
Is anyone watching this show? It is absolutely hilarious. Unfortunately I was reading that it is on the verge of cancellation! So what are your thoughts? If you don't like it, why? It's weird but when I went to youtube to post clips they're aren't many - but the full episodes are there if you are interested.
