yeah only a 67.4% career completion rate and 98TDs to 21 INTs Geno Smith should be ashamed of himself being so erratic .

QB, CB, RDE, 2 LBs, FS, SS, LG, WR TE- other than that we're good.

LOL- some of you guys are harsh - after watching the combine I'd say Manuel in the 3rd round is a pipe dream- Nassib on the other hand is likely to be there.

I'm sure he's better but how much better is he than Justin Hunter who we might be able to get in the 2nd round

Personally I think he's the about the only person who has a grasp on economics here at PPP

If birds drop Monsanto seeds on my property I should be able to sue Monsanto- If Monsanto seeds cross pollinate and adulterate my natural seeds again I should be able to sue Monsanto, and any civilization anywhere who has ever practiced agriculture should be able to sue Monsanto over prior art- ie Monsanto should have to start with strictly wild seeds not from previously domesticated seeds. Really genetically modified plants when it is done by inserting genes from different species (as opposed to hybridization or trait selection) should be only grown in controlled environments - if you grow gm corn and your corn cross pollinates my non-gm corn I'd consider that as your freak corn damaging my normal corn for which you owe me damages .

which is it - the sequester cuts are so drastic they will destroy the economy or as Paul says the the sequester cuts are nothing and we need real cuts- to really destroy the economy.

Really Good QBs go high in the first round but that doesn't mean that if you take a QB with 3rd-5th round talent in the first round that you have helped yourself- IMO there is one QB who has good odds of being a better than average NFL QB (Geno Smith) and I'm not talking Brady, Rodgers, Manning good I'm talking Romo, Flacco, Schaub good.

almost everyone's work is (except Magox who only has original thoughts) but for the rest of us dwarfs this is an appropriate quote ( or at least an appropriated quote) "If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants."

my best shot at the Bills offseason Draft 1st Eric Fisher OT 2nd Justin Hunter WR 3rd E.J. Manuel QB 4th Alvin Bailey OG 5th DeVonte Holloman OLB 6th Kiko Alonso ILB FA Big names -Laron Landry SS, Aqib Talib CB , Jared Cook TE Starters OL - LT Eric Fisher, LG Cordy Glenn, C Eric Woods , RG Kraig Urbik, RT Chris Hairston QB Tarvaris Jackson/EJ Manuel (Jackson gets 4-6 games to impress or Manuel goes in and plays the rest) RB CJ Spiller TE Scott Chandler, Jared Cook (Bills base set is two TEs) WR Stevie Johnson, David Nelson/ Justin Hunter ( if Hunter shows he starts) DL- LDE Mario Williams , DT Marcell Dareus, DT Kyle Williams, RDE Jarron Gilbert LB- DeVonte Holloman OLB, Kiko Alonso ILB, Nigel Bradham OLB CB- Stephon Gilmore, Aqib Talib S- Laron Landry SS, Aaron Williams FS Notes: Fitz will be cut not for cap savings this year but for savings next year- I see a boon or bust 2013 with either the Bills in the playoff race or looking at a top five draft pick.

This is true we are all incapable of thinking outside the box but some boxes are bigger than others and Einstein had a huge box relatively speaking.

A good read on the subject http://www.oil-price.net/en/articles/oil-and-refineries.php

Switzerland is determined to remain neutral I think that's where Adam is from

Really? I thought TYTT was OC sober

How about them?

Coiled spring

you requested someone not to post - man talk about someone feeling entitled.

I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favor to men of skill; but time and chance happens to them all. or as some 20th century wag amended "the race is not always won by the swift nor the battle won by the strong but that's the way to bet" sometimes favorites lose and long shots win and information is never complete and you hope your guy is better at gathering and interpreting the information than the other guys.

New flash! college professors have biases like everyone else- News flash! some college professors are less tolerant of their biases being challenged than others some will even academically punish you for challenging their bias. In further new water still wet.

Magox when silver was around $12.50 I put a large amount of my savings into it because it thought economic conditions favored very high inflation well I was a genius for a while as silver in a fairly short time went almost to $50 I sold a small amount at that time but bought again when silver dipped below $30 because I still thought that conditions still favored high inflation in fact I recommended it as a good investment to friends - well for our economic theories to be worth anything they have to be predictive of the unusual (predicting rain in Seattle doesn't count) and that prediction has to come true in a timely manner ( if I tell you eating chicken wings will kill you I shouldn't come to your funeral 45 years later and say "I told you") if our economic theory doesn't do this then it's wrong in it's premise or there are unaccounted for variables - when reality differs with our theory, it makes no sense to argue reality, you have to discard or at least tweek your theory - in my case I have to acknowledge that Banks, Central Banks, nations etc etc can shape or delay expected result to a greater extent and longer duration than I imagined - so far as I see inflation is rather in line with historic norms, government policy continues to favor the big financial institutions and other corporate power centers which is nothing new.

I wouldn't exclude Fox news - BS abounds everywhere and misinformation is often given on the front page in bold letters while corrections appear in small letters at the bottom of page 17 section C, there is a reason why 70% of the country thought Iraq had something to do with 9/11 until about 2007,- Iraqis throwing Kuwaiti infants out of incubators before Desert Storm, distortions of Pat Tilmans death or Jessica Lynch's capture, the story of Osama Bin Laden using his wife as a human shield- this BS gets out for a reason and it's not all on FOX- what the professor should have said is get your facts from as many sources as possible including foreign sources, including from sources who have a point of view you don't agree with and understand every source is biased and that bias doesn't have to be intentional - and even with multiple sources at best we can approximate the truth.

Good memory

I'd rather have the QB back who had the trick-shot video anyone remember who that was.
