It's just over an hour from me. I may make a trip there in the near future.

Very sobering, Joseph, but very true.

Welcome to the Wall. Don't worry 'bout the negativity; everyone has it. The longer you're here, the more you'll realize that. But, most people here are true Bills fans.

Because they want to overpay for crappy stuff?

Again, I appreciate the honesty about that. The other calls were, to me, a bit more cut and dried, but that PI in the end zone and the Jefferson non catch before it were just plain bull****.

You were @ Danny's last year? Did I meet you there? If not, maybe I'll get the chance this year.

Not bad. I mean, @ least you acknowledge that the PI call on Jones and the previous 4th down that Jefferson still did not get were blown calls. I respect your take on the other calls.

The Heat could still use a bit more muscle inside, especially considering Shaq is wearing down due to age and injuries (even though he's still a dominant low post presence).

Great stuff! I'm hoping the left side of the OL can hold up to the pass a bit better than what you saw, but it's nice to know that they seem to be ahead of the curve in run blocking.

McNabb would be my top choice. If he's gone (there's a good chance of that), go after a good scorer, regardless of position. Of course, if your top scoring option is a RB, by all means, take him. My philosophy differs from most people, as I do not go RB crazy and forsake high point scorers for the sake of drafting a RB. I look for scoring first, then for positions. I'll make do w/ average scoring from my RBs if my QB or my WRs are scoring like crazy.

Why look so confused, Puhonix? You mean you've never heard about the All America career Jeffrey Dahmer had as a basketball player @ Duke? What about former Illini small forward and Minneapolis Laker Ed Gein? I won't even go on about the phenomenal hoops career of John Wayne Gacy.

Excellent! Way to put it in perspective, Tony. Why is it that they can blow the easy ones, yet nail the tough ones routinely................when the Patriots are the beneficiary, that is?

Hahaha!!! That was the game when Keion Carpenter blasted Patten, who then fumbled the ball. Of course it wasn't a fumble, because his head was already out of bounds. Nice call.

Who asked you?

I don't think Ward should be villified the way he is (you should see how they're tearing him apart on some of the Steelers boards!). The guy wants to get paid like an All-Pro receiver. Big deal. I'm sure both sides will come to an agreement of some kind, as he is still the most beloved player on that team, even if their fans want to hold a childish grudge for something each of them would do in his situation.

I'd like the hear the Coach again, but even if he is on GR, I can't get that here in the Baltimore area on Mondays.

Happy birthday stevewin.

Probably so, to go along w/: the Greg Lloyd reversable jersey I bought her for her birthday 8 years ago, or... the Lee Flowers jersey she bought after we got married 6 years ago, or... the Roethlisberger jersey she got as a Christmas gift from Mommy last year.

Well, he is one of the guys I kept on my keeper league fantasy football team.

I don't, for numerous reasons.

In terms of Little Italy, I like Luigi Petti. Great food, and I used to take the bus trip/brunch package they had for Ravens games (took my wife on those for the first 2 Ravens-Steelers games @ the now demolished Memorial Stadium).

As far as I know there's a happy hour there on Fridays. Not sure about a daily one.

Oh well. One of these days, I'll get to meet Paige. Of course, it may be @ her high school graduation, but...

Promises, promises. I'll believe that when I see it.

Not a damn thing. Speaking of which, you guys coming over this Saturday?
