  1. Northern border of the United States of America, Northwest border of the town of Irondequoit. Next door neighbors are the Coast Guard, Silk O'loughlin's, and the Summerville Grille.
  2. Hard not to get ahead of ourselves when even stock analysts use him for comparisons "...he is expecting another "Josh Allen-like performance" from..." https://finance.yahoo.com/m/4d54342b-a0aa-3947-93d7-4182b92941b9/microsoft-likely-to-beat-wall.html
  3. Get used to it. One thing stinking all century has done is to give us a routine Sunday. At least one year we had all 1:00 games except the Thursday nighter. Home games - leave the house at 7:00 AM, fire up the grill at 8:30 AM and 4:30 PM, clean up at 6:00 PM, head back to Rochester at 6:30. Rinse/repeat. Away games - gym at 9:30, shower, bar by 12:45. Rinse/repeat. Those days are done for a while. Winning teams play in prime time. It's the price we pay.
  4. Now this is weird. My niece lives in Knoxville. You're telling me she's having a white Christmas but I'm dealing with a flooded basement (not too bad, nothing a few fans won't dry up.)
  5. Only rained in Rochester. Bah Humbug.
  6. Below is wild card procedure for first wild card team when 3 or more clubs are tied. Since procedure is repeated to determine the second wild team once first is determined, it probably is repeated again to determine wild card team #3 once 1&2 have been determined. From: https://www.nfl.com/standings/tie-breaking-procedures "Three or More Clubs (Note: If two clubs remain tied after third or other clubs are eliminated, tie breaker reverts to step 1 of applicable two-club format.) Apply division tie breaker to eliminate all but the highest ranked club in each division prior to proceeding to step 2. The original seeding within a division upon application of the division tie breaker remains the same for all subsequent applications of the procedure that are necessary to identify the two Wild-Card participants. Head-to-head sweep. (Applicable only if one club has defeated each of the others or if one club has lost to each of the others.) Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games, minimum of four. Strength of victory. Strength of schedule. Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed. Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed. Best net points in conference games. Best net points in all games. Best net touchdowns in all games. Coin toss When the first Wild-Card team has been identified, the procedure is repeated to name the second Wild-Card, i.e., eliminate all but the highest-ranked club in each division prior to proceeding to step 2. In situations where three or more teams from the same division are involved in the procedure, the original seeding of the teams remains the same for subsequent applications of the tie breaker if the top-ranked team in that division qualifies for a Wild-Card berth."
  7. Actually some really good points in this thread about qb development, particularly Allen v Darnold. Great to see our staff being the envy of other fan bases rather than the laughing stock of them. They must have had a field day when we hired Rex.
  8. Just noticed this for the first time. If you still have, my brother will geek out on this stuff. Sent an email with his address, just reply back and let me know how you want me to get you the postage. Thanks Man!
  9. Who are Bomani and Jones? For that matter, what's a podcast?
  10. My solution is a little different. Both one and two pointer are attempted from the 5 yard line. No holder allowed if attempting 1 point, has to be a drop kick. Tough to get it over the upright on a drop kick. We'll bring back Flutie to keep the defense guessing (for those who don't know, Flutie is the last one to successfully make a drop kick.)
  11. USB could have contained a video of a closed practice of the Falcons next opponent that the guy with his back to the camera was going to take to Morris. Since we didn't see what was on it we don't know what was on it. But given the location of the incident and you just have to make some assumptions about the contents.
  12. Last nite he made a comment about Mahomes being the best in the league at hard counts after he had gotten Denver to jump using one. Al Michaels quickly chimed in that Aaron Rodgers was on the phone and (not sure of the exact wording) wants to have a word with you. Collinsworth said that a lot of people want to have a word with me (again not sure of the exact wording.) You could hear the exasperation in his voice.
  13. Have a tissue or two close by before watching
  14. While the injury certainly sucks, he'll still get paid and make enough this year (15.8M) to last him for life. I'll save my sympathy.
  15. https://www.nydailynews.com/sports/football/steve-johnson-buffalo-bills-wideout-blames-god-twitter-dropping-game-winning-pass-article-1.456341 "I PRAISE YOU 24/7!!!!!!" the 24-year-old tweeted from his iPad at around 5:15 Sunday after the Steelers' 19-16 overtime victory. "AND THIS HOW YOU DO ME!!!!! YOU EXPECT ME TO LEARN FROM THIS??? HOW???!!! ILL NEVER FORGET THIS!! EVER!!! THX THO..." God's response: "I gave you a beautiful sunny day in Buffalo in late November, tripped the corner, and put a perfect spiral in your hands. AND THIS IS HOW YOU DO ME!!!"
  16. Not sure about the Bulls line, but it's probably safe to say no one on the Kent State defensive front is getting drafted But yeah I was thinking even walking quickly with a cane (back went out last week, getting better thank you) I could have gained some yards with those holes.
  17. Don't know what's more amazing, 409 yards/8 TDs or the Las Vegas over/under at 111.
  18. Guessing you don't spend much time in PPP.
  19. Actually Sunday afternoon, 1:15 according everything I've seen Happy Thanksgiving everyone
  20. While there have been many snow games, this one and the Colts game from 2017 were the two that came to mind when I saw the topic. This one was the social event of the Christmas season back in 02.
  21. FWIW the play before the hail mary to Hooks was a bomb to Hooks that set up the hail Mary. The catch on preceeding play was one of the greatest catches in Bills history, I've mentioned it on several occasions. Oh yeah, I was still in the stands , not the parking lot.
  22. The linebacking unit for the 60's AFL championship teams was Harry Jacobs, John Tracey, and Mike Stratton. They played a record 62 straight games together from 63-67. With free agency and concussion protocol I don't see that record ever being broken. Hey, it's the bye week, need useless trivia to fill in the gap! (In case a source is needed for this piece of useless trivia, it came from Harry Jacobs' Wikipedia page located here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Jacobs_(American_football))
  23. Before I hit 60 this was me. Now I'll add wine so night is beer or win (occasionally beer and wine but those nights never turn out well!) You lost me at banana!
  24. re the different look - probably why they've been playing this John Prine song during breaks https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L21Tc_DtL6M re your picks - both look good after the first round
