Congrats on the wedding. We had to save up and pay mostly for our own too, so I feel ya. Will definitely keep you in mind for the seasons.

Mike Silver's career is a "LOL"
What I'm trying to say is writing for Yahoo Sports is exactly similar to writing for the Bleacher Report!
But on his bio page he has a picture of himself standing behind Deuce McAllister during Hurricane Katrina clean up in New Orleans! Clearly the guy is big time. [Thumbs down, farting sounds.]

I think a lot of what is out there is bull. Just because you have surgery to repair something everyone always assumes that it means you'll "never be the same". Fact is, you're right, you could be even better.
Exactly. Look at Tommy John surgery. It's amazing what modern medicine can do. I bet he'll be back.

They tried to call Roscoe to tell him, but he blew out his ACL on the way to pick up the phone.

I'm looking forward to FA and the draft. For the first time in a while it feels like we get to focus on building and depth rather than plugging fresh holes.

We are planning on getting tickets together this year (I am in New Jersey) and we already know we won't get to all of the games but it's still worth supporting our team! Plus when they make the playoffs we will be there like we were back in the 90's!
You know, that's another great point. When we finally do get back (knock wood), right of first refusal for playoff tickets will be super sweet.

Nice! Lotsa WNY transplants down here. Just sent you a PM.
-
We're in! Section 126, row 22. See you guys at the Ralph! (For some of the games anyway.)
-
On the flip side, I work at UNC and have heard plenty of negative things about Coples. I hope we go nowhere near him.
-
They also have the kid's sizes on sale. With yesterday's signing of SJ, I picked up his jersey for my 2-year old son for $22. We plan to make the trip up to ROC for training camp this year, and with any luck we'll get to meet Stevie and have him autograph it. Then my boy can hang on to it long after he outgrows it.

Just bumping this thread for the NC guys in particular. My wife and I live in Durham, NC and are considering season tickets to get back up to WNY for probably 2-3 games, and then sell the rest. Our aim wouldn't be to make a profit, but it would be nice to defray SOME of our travel costs in the long run.
So when you NC guys go up, do you drive or fly? No direct flights from RDU to BUF or ROC is kind of a pain, especially since we'd be traveling with our little boy. Any other thoughts on your experience as season ticket holders in NC?

Poking around on Twitter, I saw some Bears fan pissed off about this because he was hoping Chicago would pick up Stevie in FA. I gotta admit, fans of other teams saying "dammit" about this move makes me feel good. Let's go Buffalo!
-
Number 13 has always been my lucky number anyway... Now that it'll be relevant for 4-5 years, I think I might just get me a Johnson jersey!
-
Thank god. If for no other reason than this thread making me want to pour wing sauce in my eyes the last week or so.
-
I'm more surprised that he thought he'd get away with it than I am at the fact that it happened at all. Telling members of a union to go out and incapacitate other members of that union? Yeah, that's not going to go over well.
-
It is statistically more likely that we will sign 1978 Terry Bradshaw than Drew Brees.
-
I'm just assuming no news is good news at this point. I bet it's in the works.

Buddy Nix is cheap! Fire Buddy Nix!
-
I think it's just a testament to the crapshoot nature of the draft. You scout and inform yourself as much as possible, but there will always be hall of famers drafted later than total busts.
-
They're giving him LESS money? Ralph IS cheap!
-
All that's open at the skydome in August is 24,25,26. I think that weekend there will be a band(rolling stones) playing in the skydome.
Plus I can't imagine it's a fast turnaround from football to baseball in Skydome. Not like hockey to basketball in an arena.
-
Yeah, why was he cut in the first place and why the relative lack of interest in him?
-
What's interesting is that a "focus on education" hasn't seemed to hurt the perception of Andrew Luck. He made it clear he wanted to stay at Stanford (most Ivy-like school west of the mississippi) and finish his degree in architectural engineering or whatever, but he's still considered the slam dunk #1 pick. Maybe it's different for QBs?
-
I don't know much about the guy, but as heralded as he was coming out of high school, I'm surprised he got no serious looks by any college programs. As we learn every March, there are plenty of small schools that show up with some pretty good talent.
Maybe it's something like, if a guy is super smart, recruiters and scouts just assume he won't have the heart for sports. Kind of like that really smart football player who came out of Florida State a few years ago. Dude was a Rhodes Scholar who wanted to take that year at Oxford, and then enter the draft. Even though he had all kinds of talent, his focus on education was viewed as a negative.
All Peyton Manning, all the time!

Nothing would make me laugh more than if Andrew Luck turned into another Ryan Leaf. What a great bookend to Manning's career that would be.
