  1. Quolled for brevity (GG gets it!) 

    This team far from sucks.

    From Sal Maiorama:

     

    ..."the Bills scored four red zone touchdowns against the NFL's best red zone defense and allowed no sacks"

     

    I do not give a rat's ass about the Cards win/loss record - this is GREAT NEWS!

     

     

    Now go enjoy your lunch, GG. B)

  2. I don't know, I read Sal's article and did not read anything negative there.

     

    He did mention that it was a bit "disconcerting" that the DL did better at the position than OL, but he complimented "respected offensive line coach Jim McNally" for making the switch..

     

    This was a wakeup call for the OL. The coaches are doing whatever it takes to get a job done.

  3. Do me a favor.

     

    Take your TV to the bathroom and turn on the game.

    Get a large fan and turn it on.

    Put on several layers of clothes.

    Set a metal lawn chair in your shower.

    Turn the shower on - cold.

    Sit there for three hours, right til the last minute when the game's outcome is decided.

    THEN we will talk. ;)

     

    That is what the Ralph is like on a day like yesterday.

     

    P.S. Monday morning boxscore: Attendance 65,887 - it was mentioned in the paper that if the game was played in sunny, warm Arizona, that would be paid attendance for TWO games.

     

    Just to put things in perspective. :rolleyes:

  4. (ps - I apologize if this turns into a politically charged pissing match - I intended it to be a humorous, interesting look at a coincidental phenomenon)

    IF it does, it is not your fault. :)

     

    I read this in the paper today and would have posted it.

     

    My prediction: IF the Bills score a rushing touchdown, KRC will win, in a write in landslide. (Hi, Ken!)

     

     

    :lol:

  5. From SNOPES:

    What do we make of all this? Nothing. We see it as coincidence, as evidence that anyone who tries long and hard enough can find apparent patterns in any collection of data. But for those who believe in this sort of thing, the Redskins' last home game before the 2 November 2004 election is a Halloween Day contest against the Green Bay Packers — Republican supporters will be rooting for the Redskins, and Democratic supporters will become Cheeseheads for a day.

     

    GO SKINS ANYWAY!!

    :)

  6. This is an actual street sign near Broadway and 42nd Street in NY (near TKTS).

     

    I thought it fit the new system everyone at One Bills Drive is having such a hard time learning. :lol:

     

    New photo too, if you click on my name.

     

    I am such a shameless exhibitionist! I can't help it - I am just BORED! :)

  7. Yeah, macaroni salad.

    :)

     

    Just do like Rock does: make the plate your one meal for the day.

    No kidding. I skipped breakfast and just had The R.Rich Combo Plate yesterday (a red hot/cheeseburger combo with everything and extra sauce for inquiring minds) and did not eat again until this morning.

     

    My main course was R.Rich's dessert!

     

    I was able to get the afternoon off so we hung around and shot the bull until almost 4 o'clock.

  8. First of all.....FOX has this week's game. Second of all.....my daughter works for WYDC-BigFOX and she tried to get the game for this area from their FOX rep. There's not really a nice way to say this, but......the FOX rep told her that basically the Bills suck (record-wise) and they will be showing the Giants game because the Giants have a better record.

    :P

    Thanks for settig the record straight. I would see you there, but R.Rich took my seats! :(

     

    The Bills don't suck, they are just learning a new system. :wub::lol::lol:

  9. I'll come up one of these days...I'm at the University of Rochester Medical Center, so I guess Main Street isn't too far? or I dunno...I still don't know my Rochester geography well...stuck with a bunch of experiments today so I'm going nowhere now

    91361[/snapback]

     

    It's on West Main Street near Rt 490.

     

    You will not need a map. :(

  10. :I starred in Brokeback Mountain: AD...I like you and your takes and all but There is no Hockey unless the Sabres are playing.......No offense dude...but this is a sore subject

    92020[/snapback]

     

    Yeah, no offense AD, and here is my middle finger to show my sincerity! :(

  11. You're a good guy to wait for them Rock.  Give Rich and Lisa my love, and ENJOY your plate.

    91228[/snapback]

     

    Lisa is not coming up for this trip. Rich is bringing a buddy from (I think) Erie, PA.

     

    Thanks, I will enjoy the plate. :blush:

     

    For anyone LOCAL:

     

    Update - Rich should be at Nick's in a half hour (1:45 PM EST).

     

    Maybe I will see you there!

  12. no, it is just like syracuse, there is a corner of yates county(penn yan area) that is covered by syracuse tv.  but because that little corner of yates county was within the 150 mile radius, the syracuse market was affected by black-out rules.  i believe they rectum-fied that a while ago, but it could be a similar situation with corning

    91028[/snapback]

     

    Actually it is a 75 mile radius. I thought the area that causes the Syracuse blackout is between Naples and Bristol - just a few miles of land that is mostly marshland, pasture, rocks, or water. The western-most part of Syracuse TV viewing area. More cows live in the area than people. :lol:

  13. when do you guys normally meet? can i come? :doh:

    91120[/snapback]

     

    We do not meet on a regular basis, but we always post it here when we do meet. It varies but every 4-6 weeks.

     

    Of course you are welcome to join us! :doh:

     

    That would be at Nick Tahou's on Main Street (in the cultural district) :lol:

     

    Usually it would be a Friday at noon. I am waiting for Rich to call, since he is driving a LONG way for a Garbage Plate.

     

    Sorry if anyone eles's plans were screwed up by this! :(

  14. IMPORTANT UPDATE!

     

    Message on my answering machine this A.M. from R.Rich

     

    Time will be more like "12:30ish" instead of noon. If you can, adjust your schedule accordingly!

     

    Keep an eye on the wall this morning, I expect Rich may call again with a better ETA when he gets closer.
