Very sorry to hear this. Not sure if he was racing or just didn't know how to operate a fast bike. Was he drinking? Drugs? Did someone follow him on another bike? Etc. Knowing the press and Schefty the Twit-terer - we'll find out much more in the days ahead. Hopefully the mainstream press guys respect the family before they start their "investigative" journalism.

Last I saw PSU was at #1 and Iowa at #3 I think.

Izzo...loved by the analysts for mediocre coaching. I don't get it. He's a choke artist...same with their football program.

Those were some decent matches tonight. I only saw 160's through heavys but a lot of talented young men. Should be some great final matches tomorrow night.

Every time someone says "Trump" an angel gets his wings.

Yeah, I was referencing this before. Those two guys have a knack for finding the backdoor when they put their minds to it.

If you would kindly read above I think you'll see a consensus that the game should be shortened. Currently it takes three and half hours to get through an NFL game. Under my proposal, I would shave considerable time off this total as follows: a) there would be a 15 minute pre-game equipment inspection and on field contact drills just to get a feel for each opponent, b) then kickoff would start the first 20 minute half with a 2 minute play clock between each play, c) then a 30 minute halftime (for player safety and coaching analysis...commercials would come into play here to keep revenue up), d) then on field stretching for 15 minutes (player safety), e) second half kickoff, then another 20 minute half with 2 minutes in between each play. f) In the event of a tie, there would be a "redemption shot" kind of like when we used to play "HORSE" and each QB would have the opportunity to hit a pie plate in the end zone starting at the 50 yard line (once again, player safety, no jump balls, no torn ACL's, excitement, no boring run plays up the middle). I think we're all in agreement this would streamline the game.

I would ask Beerball or BuffaloBill if there is a "back door" to get around the security...they are intimately familiar with how to sneak in via backdoors.

I am making a motion that this thread be merged with the "People are Addicted to their Phones" thread. CBF is bound to lose his job in the next 48 hours.

^^^ This...adds to excitement and assures player safety.

I wouldn't mind a Playoff Championship for Preseason. BUT, I disagree on whether they should count toward the record. Look, I know the games need to be shortened to three 10 minute periods or two 25 minute halves...we all agree on that point. But during the preseason, they should have a round robin style tournament with Bowl games at the end to decide who is the Preseason Champion. Then the Champion would be seeded for the regular season...say the Bills won the whole Preseason Championship...they would be seeded #1...they would then play the team that had the worst preseason record in the season opener. Want to make the Preseason Playoff Tournament an exciting event...use the implanted chip for NFL fans on a trial run for preseason games. As a Bills fan, I'd buy one in a heartbeat if it took me into the huddle, on the sidelines and allowed me to actively participate in the playcalling. The whole idea of increasing the playclock to two minutes between each play is because the game itself is shortened, but the time in between is lengthened so the coaches can consider suggestions via Twitter, Facebook and via the implanted chip from fans like me. Once a big company signs on as the sponsor of the Buffalo NFL Reality chip (say, Sahlens Hot Dogs for instance), you would only have to listen to the Sahlens jingle for 30 seconds before it takes you back into the live game action. Tell me you wouldn't have one implanted if you could experience real NFL action?? (crickets) I rest my case. 1. More time w/families = less time in the stadium buying NFL merchandise I see people getting chips implanted of their favorite team so the sideline playcalling and live action can be heard right in your own head. This will cost a bundle but revenue will skyrocket even if the game is only 30 minutes long. Every chip will be sponsored by a certain brand...like Progressive Insurance, so you have to listen to Progressive commercials for another 3 hours after the game. 2. Fewer commercials = lower league profits See #1 above. The internal NFL chip will make you listen to the commercials before you can get back to live action. The chip can be paused if you have to go to a wedding or something. 3. Good point, but I think 1 and 2 will outweigh 4. Not sure > intensity would happen with professional players. Maybe with fans. Shorter games would build excitement in the fan base and the players. If a RB knows he only has one shot at breaking a 80 yard run because the game is only a total of 20 minutes, he's gonna try even harder. The nice thing about the internal NFL chip for each fan, is when you watch him run into the wall of Olineman and Dlineman, fans can scream out loud and the chip in your head is calibrated and networked into each team. If you yell "run left...look at that hole they made for you!!" the RB can actually listen to your comments and quickly dart left in to the opening. It will create a more "reality based" game for the fans with excitement in a shorter time allotment. The internal commercials playing in your head for 3 hours during and after each game would be a fair tradeoff in my opinion.

That's allowed so long as you just email your daughter re. her wedding arrangements and nothing else.

Not only should they shorten the game time, but they should have more pre-season games that actually count toward your record.

You'll think differently when you go to sit in your favorite recliner and it's nothing but a metal frame and springs.

If I said "yes" would you believe me? So I might as well tell the truth...absolutely not.

http://www.businessinsider.com/bill-nye-explains-his-stance-on-gmos-2015-7 Didn't realize Bill Nye made an about face on GMO's. I haven't seen the "torch and pitchfork" organic groups calling for his head. Maybe they quietly swept this under the carpet.

lol lol. Wade Phillips

I don't let her in my Bills' Mancave. I do like her leather skirt and boots...thankfully she doesn't crave animal hide fabrics.

LOL. That Tom Coughlin one is perfect.

Yeah, that's what I think as well. I can handle only so much of "Hahn and Humpty" spouting off about their knowledge of sports or Stephen Smith and that knucklehead who argues with him every day....it gets draining. LeBatard and Stugotz admit they aren't in-depth sports analysts and have some extremely funny bits and interviews (Charles Barkley was great, Warren Buffett, etc)

If you like watching RB's run into the butts of 350 pound men time and time again then fine...otherwise, create a sense of urgency in the game and shorten the periods. In addition, the implanted chip idea above could be an iPhone app that tells you when the RB is heading toward a pile of butts and I could scream at him to go left. Shorten the game and make it more exciting. The commercials and analysis for a few hours will preserve the integrity of the game for those who want to keep it the way it is.

Yes, Yes, and Yes...but I say we still need a 2 minute play clock and longer timeouts, intermissions to allow coaches like Rex to gather his thoughts and analyze film from the opposing sidelines.

They pretty much mock each other to death...they read Tweets from people that hate their show and laugh about it. I like it but can see how some folks don't care for their brand of humor.

I like the show because they are self deprecating and don't take the "hard nosed sports" angle...they don't take themselves too seriously. Much better than watching/listening to Stephen A Smith etc.
