  1. Thanks, Doc. Believe me ... you're not the first to express concern about how this was handled. I remember that day, my aunt (who is a nurse) was downright pissed about it and immediately said that an ambulance should have been called. I'm very much an "all's well that ends well," kind of guy ... but I also see how this could have gone in a different - and worse - direction. I appreciate the kind words.

    2023 Concerts

    As I'm sure you know, this isn't like the 80s when every concert was affordable and we could go see everyone we wanted to. Unfortunately, I'm passing on A LOT of shows because I need to be more selective due to the ridiculous prices. This is just one of those shows. It's a real drag.
  3. I had a similar, but luckily not as bad, experience when I was close to 40. I was having severe headaches and I NEVER get headaches. I figured it was just sinuses or something, so I pushed through it. It got so bad one day, that it literally brought me to tears. I didn't go to the ER, but I was able to get into the doctors' office. When the LPN came in to do the normal weigh in, blood pressure, etc., she took my BP and said, "hmmm." Then she tried it again. Then she asked if she could try my other arm. After that, she went to get another LPN, who also took my BP. At that point, she told me that she was going to get the doctor. When the doctor came in, she took my BP and told me that it was 225/130 and asked me how I was feeling (other than the headache). She then did some quick tests to see if I had already suffered any kind of stroke and told me that I was at risk of having either a stroke or a heart attack at any time. She wrote a script and told me to go directly to the pharmacy. It was for a pill that would basically crash my BP. She then set up an appt., to have CT scans, EKGs, etc. done and told me to go to the hospital to get those done. Knock on wood, I've never had any issues after that (I've been BP medications ever since) and I get checkups done every 6 months. That day was the first time I'd seen/met that doctor. I'm 52 now and she's still my doctor. I got very lucky that day and I maintain that she saved my life and I'll be forever grateful.

    2023 Concerts

    We're getting the Harrison/Belew show locally (Albany), but it's not with Les Claypool's Fearless Flying Frog Brigade, otherwise, I'd go.
  5. I think, if she wants to take it on, that it would be great. Not sure how long she wants to play tennis, but down the road, I think keeping it in the family would be ideal.
  6. I'd give the 2015 Broncos consideration.
  7. The entire evolution through which Beane ended up with Hines was nothing short of a shitshow, culminating with yet another player being underutilized/misused, altogether. This kind of crap has been happening throughout this regime's tenure.
  8. I like a good bobble head and I have a few (all baseball). This one is horrible with those stupid feet. For that reason … I’m out.
  9. I agree that it is sad, in a way. I will say that even in this current season, I loved all of the regular season success. But I did let myself get wrapped up in the top 3 offense and defense rankings, even though in the back of my mind I saw the deficiencies. But I've always been a firm believer in anything can happen in the postseason once you get there. But the last couple years have really sucked the (football) life out of me. I'm sure that by next summer I'll be all amped up again and I'll still be jacked up for all of the regular season success the Bills will likely have. But a greater part of me than ever is saying, "enough is enough ... you have one of the best QBs in the NFL ... get to the f*cking Super Bowl." I think any long-term Bills fan should feel that way, personally.
  10. What the Bills do in the regular season means nothing. It's all about postseason wins.
  11. The six "gimme" wins/season obviously helped them with getting into the playoffs and vying for postseason byes. But ... as our beloved Bills have shown us over the past few years, getting into the tournament is one thing; winning in the tournament is another.
  12. I think the rest of the league also understands the importance of offense, which is what wins championships now.
  13. Give me his 1300 all-purpose yards and I won't care if he pays 50 people off/year to sweep things under the rug.
  14. it's a goddamn game, dude. Football is a game.
  15. I can't see anyone but a serious Bills homer even trying to debate this. Kelly's not even a top 10 QB.
  16. Said the person who kept the thread going.
  17. Tom Brady played in ten Super Bowls. Josh Allen has played in zero. All of the other crap ... I couldn't give a rat's ass.
  18. "While the get-togethers were said to have gone well, they did not improve the broadcast as Nantz and Romo continued to go in the wrong direction, much the same way as Nantz and his previous partner, Phil Simms, went backward. " Seems that Nantz is the common denominator, here.
  19. I think the point is that he's been part of very few defensive coaching staffs on winning teas and that he's been a coach in the league for a dozen years with no upward movement. So, yeah ... I think I made a point.
  20. How many Goddamn steps? It's been sixty ***** years! Give me the Super Bowl ASAP and I don't care if Josh retires the next day and the Bills suck for a decade.
  21. Nov. of 1992. The other concert I saw in Virginia was Motley Crue/Whitesnake in 1987 at the Richmond Coliseum. For that one, I was visiting my brother, who was in the Navy; by the time the Ozzy show came around 5 years later, I was in the Navy, too, LOL.
  22. Pretty incredible track record: https://pro-football-history.com/coach/2238/joe-danna-bio
