Thanks...wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Heard the same on Troy Polamalu

as long as he stays sober the next 3 I'm okay with that

this is exactly what I wrote originally, then decided to just quote Gugny. Unbelievable life.

Kidnapping and DV

Indeed. RIP

Me too

With KC's defense and the beating Thad took last week, hopefully just trying to be prepared

24-13 Bills...finally a win that we don't have to hold our breath until the last play is over.

lifelong bachelor (at least so far)

http://www.forbes.com/2010/08/27/football-tailgating-nfl-lifestyle-sports-travel-stadiums_slide.html?partner=yahoosports This article from 2010 lists Buffalo as #1, but it may be alphabetical order

This article from Sept 6 2013 has Buffalo at #3 behind Houston (the only warm weather city) and GB. Seattle didn't crack the top 10. FWIW 3rd is the lowest I've ever seen Buffalo ranked, usually 1 or 2 with GB. Given the recent successes of the teams ahead of us and Buffalo's 21st century playoff drought I think it is fair to say that Buffalo is #1 (see how high those other teams rank after just a 5 year playoff drought). http://www.rsvlts.com/2013/09/06/best-nfl-tailgate-cities/

No kids...Long term policy is to have an accident cleaning a pistol. My nephew is getting his PHD in Healthcare Administration, maybe he'll get things straightened out before it comes to that!

My father was on his second two week Respite stay at Atria Penfield when he developed Pancreatitus from stone blockage in his bile duct. That was two weeks ago. He's 95, had a few difficult nights because of the anesthesia but that seems to be clearing up. Trying to get him back into rehab but now he may no longer be a candidate for rehab or assisted living. Getting old ain't for wimps.

Scary report. Looking into assisted living for my parents, the difference in the facilities is eye opening. My best advice is never get old.

I actually wasn't upset at the first challenge. I don't get upset at using a timeout on offense if the ensuing play is successful. We had third and goal coming up, the challenge quieted the crowd at least for a little while to collect thoughts, and the next play was a touchdown. We basically used a timeout and called a play that worked. Had the challenge worked the timeout would have been saved so why not try it instead of just calling the timeout.

If I'm reading this correctly the only all pro (not to be confused with pro bowl) draft pick this century has been Lynch...only pro bowl draft pick selected in the last 5 years has been Byrd.

Nice read. I remember Al Davis being asked about his chances of getting Jim Kelly when the USFL was folding. He said no chance, Ralph Wilson still hadn't forgiven him for Daryle Lamonica.

From his pre-draft scouting capsule from cbssports.com: "COMPARES TO: Jabari Greer, CB, New Orleans Saints: Roby possesses better ball skills than Greer, but otherwise is a similar prospect who will have to rely on the athleticism to overcome a lack of preferred size." http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/players/1737252/nickell-robey

re Freddy - The guy has survived three first-round and countless mid-round draft picks. Now I'm hearing that he actually waived off the cart Sunday, said to let him sit out a couple series and see how he felt (only sat out one). Re RJ/ Flutie - me too Nice topic by the way.

RJ, JP, Williams (Mike and JD), Hardy,. Must say I didn't like trading Tony Hunter for Ferragamo though.

Doesn't say what they gave up for him http://www.thefinsiders.com/blog/2013/report-dolphins-make-trade-with-ravens?_ga=1.165123195.597401300.1382400631

John Daly certainly couldn't master the art

What I like to refer to as alcohol equilibrium...staying at that point is more of an art than a science.

My brother actually hung out outside the brewery and asked a couple couples how many cases they were getting...he ended up with 3 cases. But I promise to drink from the can only going forward.
