You were smart enough to bring Babyrock w/ ya.

The Chia Ram rocked.

Were you actually sober this time?

We're 3-0??? Really??? Really??? Jason Peters didn't look very sharp once again, but neither did any other O lineman. The run blocking still isn't quite there. I still wonder why this team doesn't do more straight ahead drive blocking w/ the size of their line. Ah well, smarter men than I devise these schemes. I'll trust 'em to know the deal. What a run by Marshawn on the first TD. The guy is all heart. Trent Edwards shook off a not so stellar start to really make the difference down the stretch. I like the progress he seems to be making. He's not a finished product yet, but you have to be encouraged by the development. Okay, you don't have to.......but you'd better. For future reference: a play is over once the player scores by crossing the goal line. That's it. Done. No more. Thanks for playing. Posluszny had a much better performance in coverage than in the first game. I like his intensity and his hustle. Where did he play his college ball? Hmm.... The Raiders obviously made a point to stress special teams for this game. Well, it worked fairly well for them. Their special teams were very good. Lechler looked like the guy who has been punting in the wind tunnel known as RICH Stadium for a decade. The guy was clutch. Our return men were held in check for the most part also due to Lechler's punting. Since I'll be in attendance next week, here's to hoping the Bills' special teams get back to business. Lee Evans, you want a nice hefty contract? Show up. Back to Edwards. For a guy who doesn't have much of an arm, he sure has made some very nice throws on the too few occasions where the offense challenges opposing defenses down the field. Bottom line: we dominated in Week 1, found a way to win in adverse conditions (on the road, good team, blistering heat) in Week 2, and overcame a lackluster performance @ home to get another win in Week 3. In situations that many (myself included) probably would've just chalked up another heartbreaking Bills loss, they are getting it done. That is very encouraging. There's still plenty of things to work on, but I am still very thrilled @ the direction this team is heading in. I know it's very early, but the indicator is that this team certainly isn't the "same old Bills". Thank goodness. GO BILLS!

I think it's fair to say that dissing the Bills isn't any fun. So, w/ that in mind, if we remove that part from the title of this thread...

I remember someone giving me the same advice once upon a time. Even though the guy's a knucklehead, the advice helped.

It's every drunken idiot's right to ruin the game experience of people who, in some cases, drive for hours just to go up to attend the games. How can the Bills be so cruel to them?

No wonder I can sit and talk music w/ you for hours. Did I burn the BB King for you? I'm not sure (old age). I like that one a lot. BB may very well be the best live performer I've ever seen. Psycho Ward 86 bought me tickets to a BB King concert as a Christmas present once and when we went to the show, he made a groupie out of her. To the best of my knowledge, she had never heard his music before other than in commercials and such. Now, she tells ME when he's touring in our area...and usually buys the tickets once she finds out when the show is. The AiC Unplugged is still one of my all time favorites. People used to tell me that if I liked that one that I'd love the Nirvana Unplugged, but I don't. The Nirvana one is okay, it's just not as appealing to me as the AiC. The Stevie Ray? I can't thank you enough. Here's a few live albums I have and really like: Isaac Hayes: Live @ the Sierra Tahoe Liquid Soul: Liquid Soul Alice in Chains: Live Boogie Down Productions: Live Hardcore Worldwide Soundtrack: When We Were Kings Charles Mingus: Charles Mingus and Friends Marvin Gaye: Live!, Live @ the London Palladium War: Live Level 42: A Physical Presence

Of course not. Kickers are irrelevant players (Martin Grammatica) who hardly ever have any impact on the game's outcome (Scott Norwood). They cannot be relied upon (Steve Christie), wouldn't know the meaning of clutch if you spelled it out to them (Adam Vinatieri), have absolutely no toughness @ all (Lou Groza, George Blanda), and certainly have no business even being mentioned for the Hall of Fame (Jan Stenerud).

I had your back.

Hopefully not as short as busts like Mike Williams or washouts like Leonard Davis, Nathan Vasher, Derrick Johnson, Corey Redding, Casey Hampton, Phil Dawson, or Shaun Rogers.

Well deserved. Although it took seemingly forever to get to that game last week due to the rain (missed the entire 1st quarter), it was worth it when Roosevelt caught that pass.

Happy birthday to one of my college football forum regulars.

Kinda like Flutie.

Today is: 9 years since we got married 11 years since I proposed 21 years that we've been together It's been a wonderful 2 decades plus, and I look forward to many many more.

Hoo Hah, Focker!

Not even close.

Patty

Yeah, but we missed him diving over the couch to hide from the mascot.

Right now. Easily.

I set my DVR to record it before I left for Buffalo last Saturday, and I acutally got the entire game for a change.

It matters a great deal. The football world would be out of balance were it not for power rankings. Armageddon would ensue. Men, women, and children everywhere would perish, by the thousands. Power rankings is the way to stave it all off. That, and frequent campaigning of the college football team of your choice, that is.

Yup. I was thinking the same thing when I first saw it, although I'm sure that wasn't the case.

Sure you do. You saw it, didn't you?

You shouldn't hate. Do what a few others (myself included) will do: go see Bruuuuce get enshrined in the Hall instead.
