Just imagine if you had put some weights on the bar.

Thanks. I was surprised that they didn't go the "Br" route, like with my nephew (Brevin) and other niece (Breya).

NIKKI??!! Who is he? I'll kill 'em!

Words of wisdom?

Yep. The funniest part was at the end, when he looked up at the window where the camera was filming and just shrugged as if to say, "what are you gonna do?" That was classic.

Deep in guards and centers? Yes. Deep in tackles? No way. Like last year, I am really hoping we get a quality interior lineman in this draft. Running backs are pretty deep as well. If the Bills ended up with a guy like Ryan Moats of Louisiana Tech or even Kansas State's Darren Sproles in the later rounds, that would be great.

U.S. kidding, right?

Is there anyone close to the record that's classy enough and has LEGITIMATE stats that you'd want to see break Hammerin' Hank's record? I really don't know, but I'd guess there isn't anyone.

It would be nice to have an extra pick to maybe nab a guard or center, but it's okay. We should do okay with the picks we have.

Who's Barry Bonds?

Even if it isn't the Bills, the "game of the week" shows are pretty nice. I also like the In Their Own Words show. Both are worth watching.

I like the one where the instructor knocked out the pimp better.

Like I said before, we don't always agree, but that doesn't stop me from being friends with the guy. I'll give him an extra slap with the trout for you.

Hahaha!!! Will do.

You're so mean!

Damn! That's a lot. Your wife comes from a really big family, or is someone having a lot of kids?

Yes I am having a bad day. It's your fault.

Haha!! You know you shouldn't hate, John. I've come to realize over the years, especially in my dealings w/sports fans, not to judge them without knowing them. If I were to do that, there'd be many from this board I would have nothing to do with, and I'm sure it works the other way too. I take everyone, warts and all. Whether you like Bledsoe, Flutie, RJ, whatever. As long as we get along and you don't do anything negative to me or my family/friends, it's fine. Mark knows we don't agree 100% on everything, yet we can still talk or occasionally hang out together without arguing about our differences.

I certainly see how you have that view of him from your description of how he responded to you. I would only ask was there any attempt to provoke him in your original email? Lots of people come at him w/plenty of venom, but are shocked when he responds the same way. About his derogatory terms for certain people, that's one thing I certainly don't always agree with. There are times I find it amusing, but other times when it gets repetitive and puts him in a bad light (like a person on an agenda with an ax to grind). There are times he probably should take the high road and not get into it w/people, but he is his own person and can do what he wants.

Chase Lyman is still trying to get an exemption for another medical redshirt, which would allow him to compete in college again next year. No word on the status of that yet.

Actually, he's not that type of person at all. I know him and while I don't agree with everthing he says, I do respect his ability to say it. Sometimes I think he's right and other times I disagree with him. He's not some perfect know it all but by the same token, he's not the devil's spawn either.

Why does this remind me of a "why are there so many OT posts" thread?

Not even close to 24. You have me beat.

Very sad. May his soul RIP.
