  1. We now need to bring Fergy back, but how did he know that when he picked his TBD screen name? Time travel?
  2. The Thin Blue Wall.
  3. At nfl.com, you can download a box acore for the game, that the website call the "Gamebook." For individual members of the defense, it shows tackles, assists, sacks, quarterback hits that weren't sacks, tackles for loss, passes defensed (including tipped at the line), etc. I don't know how many snaps the rookies played, but neither Sanders nor Walker even appeared in the box score. No tackles, no assists, no quarterback hits (although Lamar didn't throw much). I don't know if the rookies were on the field for any of the long Henry runs.
  4. My significant other doesn't know my Two Bills Drive screen name either.
  5. Found a video interview that Avi Loeb gave yesterday in which he opines that there is a 4 out of 10 chance that interstellar object (comet?) 3I/ATLAS is a technological object rather than just a space rock. He gives it a 4 on the "Loeb" scale that he created: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ziXu8xvl9ek
  6. I have repeatedly suggested shooting Billy Buffalo from a moving train, but apparently this would create some sort of legal problem for the team.
  7. Some years back I bought a new car for cash, and agreed with the salesman on what I thought was a reasonable price. So far so good. But before they print out the paperwork for me to sign, I need to meet with some closer guy who is gonna try to upsell me to buy add-ons. He asks me a bunch of irrelevant questions to which I patiently answer yes. When he thinks he has me in an agreeable mood, the upselling starts. "You really ought to get the extended warranty". "No thanks." "Our dealer installed floormats will protect your car's carpet". "No thanks." The rustproofing will maintain the value of your car". "No thanks". "Well how about our super duper theft prevention system that allows the police to track the location of your vehicle if it gets stolen - - it even comes with this highly visible window sticker making it readily apparent to thieves that they shouldn't mess with this car and should pick an easier target." "I'll pass on the theft protection system, but how much do you want for just the window sticker?" Heavy closer sigh, followed by - - "I'll print out the paperwork."
  8. More kookiness from Avi Loeb - - an interstellar recon mission? https://www.foxnews.com/science/harvard-physicist-says-massive-interstellar-object-could-alien-probe-reconnaissance-mission Rare sightings of interstellar objects are like a Rohrschach test for sky gazers searching for extraterrestial intelligent life - - they see what they wanna see.
  9. Troy Brown played WR well enough to go the Pro Bowl once and eventually played DB for New England late in his career.
  10. Based on the chart, we clearly need to restock the Williams cabinet with a DT.
  11. Well, he was accused of grabbing Josh's grapes. Maybe he had a "no grape accusation" clause in his contract that voided otherwise guaranteed money..
  12. Think for yourself, because the conventional wisdom is sometimes much more conventional than it is wise.
  13. I'm not a sports bettor, but it looks like the current line at Draft Kings is 27.5 pass TDs, plus 10.5 rush TDs, for a total of 38 TDs combined: https://www.rotowire.com/betting/nfl/player/josh-allen-odds-12483
  14. My other brother Darryl wonders if it's even possible to engage in non-shady activity if it's done in an area where some of the sun's rays are being blocked. Then again, my memaw says he ain't right.
  15. Chariots of Fire American Graffiti Saving Private Ryan Back To The Future The Usual Suspects
  16. Scientists have discovered strange radio waves emanating from deep beneath Antarctic ice, and they can't figure out what's causing them: https://colitco.com/antarctic-radio-signals-anita-detection-analysis/
  17. Tiger Woods says she's rather attractive . . . . . for a blind woman.
  18. By now, Beane has seen his rookie DBs on the Bills practice field. If Wilkerson can "mirror the routes," maybe they plan to give him a look at CB. Echoes of Troy Brown, who was also a NE WR before starting to play CB pretty well late in his career. History may not repeat itself, but sometimes it rhymes.
  19. It's best to start eating it early in life.

  21. When my son played middle school basketball, there was this guy who was always heading off to the concession stand, but he must have had a really weak stomach, because then he'd be off to the bathroom, too. Poor guy might have had early onset dementia, because after he wandered off, he'd forget that he had been sitting with me. I felt sorry for the guy, so sometimes I'd go out of my way to go find him after he wandered off and try to be his friend, but sometimes I'd act like I didn't know where he went and just avoid him. I try to be a better man these days.
  22. Shortly after the Bills pick was announced, the telecast cut to a view of the Bills "war room." Nobody was smiling, and the body language was not upbeat. No way to be sure, but I think the Bills might have been unhappy when Williams, the last highly rated, run stuffing, 1T DT got selected by Baltimore at pick # 28. Of course Beane publicly said that he was happy that the Bills selected Hairston. It may well be true that they had a 1st round grade on him, and we certainly needed a CB. But my guess is they were actually hoping for Williams after DTs Grant, Harmon and Nolen were gone.
  23. It's a good thing Mark Kelso wasn't a Hall of Famer. His helmet wouldn't fit on the mountain.
