  1. Well, for what it’s worth, Vic Carucci apparently agrees with me that this question has already been answered.
  2. i don’t know that being old fashioned has anything to do with it...those are two best looks to me as well, although I don’t mind the all whites.
  3. And in other news, Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead.
  4. Agreed, she seems like a reasonably grounded person and (all puns aside) I would love to play a round with her.
  5. Wow, she’s pretty awesome. Just subscribed to her channel and listened to a Q&A. Really like her!
  6. To his credit, it took one to know one.
  7. Lo and behold, another person we find out is capable of learning, growth and development! It’s like coaches and players can actually evolve and aren’t the same from Day One until they retire! (can you tell this is a huge fan and media peeve of mine?)
  8. Man, you got that right. It’s amazing. I mean, his greatest claim to fame is reaching one AFC Championship game (and blowing it) and winning the Pinstripe Bowl. Oh well. I don’t despise Saint Doug any more; it’s easy to forgive and forget now that we are where we are.
  9. Because the question can also be answered no.
  10. Well, I didn't say everyone is good at it. But he's been around for a long time, apparently, so he's doing something right. By the way, I can truthfully say I've never listened to him. He arrived in Buffalo after I had left, and I don't go out of my way to listen to WGR.
  11. I think the question has been put to rest already, although I understand if some may disagree.
  12. So, I read a recent article (in The Athletic I think) about catching up with "The Coach" Chuck Dickerson. If you can find it you should read it. You'd realize that EVEN IN BUFFALO these radio hosts are not talking about things they believe, they are saying things that will create the most controversy and drive listeners/callers. The only place you get folks actually talking about what they believe is on a network that is not dependent upon advertising revenue -- like the Bills' OBL show -- but on that one you have to be cognizant that they won't overly criticize the hand that feeds them either. This is really the best place to get a dichotomy of opinion and "real talk." I don't listen to talk radio (besides Howard) much at all.
  13. Plus Horrible Harry is starting to step up and Zimmer has been a really nice find.
  14. Beasley not on the first injury report. That’s significant.
  15. On the topic of uniforms, I did some Googling and it appears that teams may wear their alternate uniforms a maximum of three times during the season but only once in the playoffs (which is counted among the three total). Teams in the Super Bowl must wear their standard uniforms.
  16. I lived in Buffalo from ‘90-93 but kept my seasons (in Georgia, then NC) until 2017. Rex was my breaking point. I’ve thought about getting them again, but aside from this year’s crazy playoff scenario of limited seating I’ve always been able to buy the seats I wanted to the games I wanted to attend.
  17. My buddy who is a huge Alabama fan nearly lost his s-h-i-t when I asked him what elite skills Tua has after the last game of the season. He went into a rant about how he was the most accurate QB he had ever seen, is a better athlete (faster) than Jalen Hurts, and blamed any lackluster performance this season on (a) not having any weapons; (b) not having a running game; and (c) his hip and not getting enough rehab to regain his strength and explosiveness. I dunno, I saw a guy who definitely wasn’t explosive so there could be some truth to this, but if so then WHY would Flores insist on playing him when Fitz was doing well? My take on Tua after watching about three games of his is that his arm is average at best, he IS very accurate, but he doesn’t make very many “wow” plays at all and I’m not sure exactly what teams would fear about him. He looks like he could be a slightly above average NFL QB because of his accuracy and intelligence but I don’t see a superstar.
  18. LOL -- you'd be lucky to get in the stadium for less than $7500 a seat.
  19. The newest (final) Star Wars trilogy was just fine...nothing is ever going to satisfy the Uber-nerds. I’m a big fan of the series, disliked Episodes I and II immensely, but thoroughly enjoyed everything else. The Godfather Part III was actually pretty good...but what can stand up to I and II? Worst mistake in that movie was Coppola’s casting of his daughter Sofia. Her aside it was an excellent flick. Caddyshack II is an absolute mess. Speaking of Chevy Chase sequels, Fletch Lives was a horrible follow-up to one of the funniest (and most quotable) originals of all time.
  20. Your response of “damn” suggests you were hoping for something else. That’s all.
  21. Do you have a photo of her holding a fish?
  22. Fixed for accuracy. Oh, and if you’re trying to play the “I’m a better fan than you” card to a guy who travels to games from North Carolina try something else.
  23. In what world did you envision the Bills wearing blue jerseys on the road? KC always wears red at home.
