  1. We have a guy here at work who:

     

    a) always hits a stall to pee.

     

    and

     

    b) uses toilet paper to "dab" himself dry after peeing.

     

    *** We have unusually/uncomfortably large gaps between the edge of the doors and the doorjamb. ***

     

    Okay ... I just went into the men's room. Grabbed the short urinal, as is my preference. Notice that "The Dabber" is taking a leak in the 3rd stall with the door wide open. Now ... I can't see his junk, as he's facing the other way. However, I hurried to wash my hands so I could get some more validation in the mirror. Sure as schit, the dude reaches over, yanks a yard of tp off the roll, and dabs his tool ... twice.

     

    So he must think it's normal to do it with the damn door wide open, right?!?!

  2. This is an excellent thread and a great cause.

     

    Here's my story which hopefully provides some motivation.

     

    Back in February I weighed in at 255 pounds. Kinda the same song and dance, but I was just tired of being a fat guy. I had always been a pretty big dude since high school but I started to hate the way I looked and it honestly was impacting my health in a pretty negative way (I was getting winded a lot, plus some aches and pains attributed to carrying that weight around).

     

    I started a calorie-counting diet and began running on February 16th. I focused on fruit, veggies and fish and kicked junk food completely to the curb. This was particularly hard for me as I've got a massive sweet tooth but I just kept reminding myself of the end result. I started weighing myself every other day and writing the results up on a calendar in my office so it was staring at me in the face every day. I joined a run club up here in Wilton and what started off as just one mile walks two days out of the week has now grown into 5K runs at least three days of the week. Even more if my schedule allows, I honestly look forward to each and every workout now. I combine those runs with some light weight training and have stuck to the proper diet for the last seven months.

     

    Its not been fun and it certainly has not been easy but as of my last weigh in I'm at 157 pounds for a net loss of 98 pounds.

     

    I'm very happy with how I look right now and I've recently shifted into just maintaining my weight as opposed to losing any more. I'm a lean, mean running machine these days and I've honestly never felt better physically or mentally.

     

    Its all about motivation and will power. If you are honest with your dieting and workout routine then you'll just watch the weight peel right off. I'm anxious to follow everyone's progress here, keep it going guys and girls!

    Simply awesome.

  3. yea - hes had a below the radar but VERY good stretch in the nfl. i think when people see the numbers they are often surprised. i dont particularly like the guy, but i dont dislike him either. I will say good for him for carving out such a long and productive career for himself. i think we often forget just how hard that is to do.

    Yup. Especially coming off of a destroyed knee the way he did. He worked his butt off whilst in Buffalo. He earned his contract. I got no beef.

  4. I just got Netflix in September. I finished season 4 of Breaking Bad last night. My main purpose for getting it was that show and a few others I have never seen. I was hoping to get a few more movies out of the streaming service, but it is lacking a bit there. The TV shows do seem to be well worth the money though.

     

    I am about to get one unexpected result from signing up. I haven't seen an episode of Cheers in ages, so I'm looking forward to going through the entire series at some point. I was thinking mostly newer TV shows when I signed up, but I found a few other things I never even thought of.

    Ahhh, "Cheers." What an incredible show.

  5. Which analysis?

     

     

     

    Read this https://www.profootb...g-productivity/

    All I am saying is that for what he is paid I expect that he would be a more consistent pass rush threat like a Ware, Smith, Suggs. He isn't close.

    I read it. Where does he fall on the list?

     

    Also, Ware, Smith and Suggs all play for defenses that have given up more points than the Buffalo Bills' defense.

     

    Isn't that what's most important? Do you think Buffalo's defense would be that effective without Mario Williams?

  6.  

    No, that would be your own overreaction and jumping to conclusions. I simply stated that Mario should be actually producing for what he is being paid.

    I'm neither overreacting, nor jumping to conclusions. Your statement is vague and you're not quantifying it or supporting it with facts. Your assertion that Mario's one sack last week wasn't him "earning his keep," doesn't hold water, in my opinion, because our defense ruled the entire day. If you think that Mario Williams needs to have multiple sacks each week in order to justify his salary, I respectfully disagree.

     

    If I'm misunderstanding how you believe Mario should be "producing for what he is being paid," then I ask that you clarify/quantify exactly what you believe will be his measure of success.

  7. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, even when it is wrong. Are you implying that Mario Williams was more effective than Suggs in that game? That is pretty astonishing considering Mario had one sack where he chased the QB out of bounds because nothing was open.

    Are you implying that our defense held Baltimore to 3/16 third down conversions, got 5 INTs and pretty much won the game after our offense went anemic in the 2nd half .... and that Mario Williams had nothing to do with those things?

  8. Buffalo has two kick returns on the season and seven punt returns. Way too small of a sample to mean anything.

     

    What's more important, to me, is how well the other teams are returning the ball. They're averaging 20.1 yards/return (24th in the league - but 5 YPR from the top 10). Not concerned.

     

    What does concern me, albeit very little, is that we've had the 2nd most kicks returned in the NFL. That's not coaching. That's a weak leg. We need someone to boot it out of the end zone.

     

    However, since opposing teams are averaging 20.1 yards/kick return ... it appears to be a wash.

  9. I was thinking about signing up for netflix to watch breaking bad. I know it's only 7$ a month, but is netflix and breaking bad worth it?

    I think it's $8/month and I think it's worth it if you're going to catch up on an entire series. I have it, but it's solely for my son's use. It's a good service and it can be used on multiple devices; just not simultaneously.

  10. There's 6 teams in the NFL with more sacks than the Bills. There's 21 teams in the NFL with less sacks than the Bills. Mario has 5.5 sacks in 4 games. As nice as I think those stats are, they're a tiny piece of the puzzle.

     

    The defensive UNIT has played well enough to give the Bills a chance to win each of the four games they've played. That's what matters most, in my opinion. And it's also my belief that, if Mario was absent for those four games, the level of success the defense has had would be significantly lower.
