TMQ "Monday Night Football Analysis: The winning play for New Orleans on Monday night -- a bang slant to a tight end split wide right near the goal line -- was the same action the Saints employed to take the lead in the fourth quarter of the Super Bowl. The nifty variation was that the Saints lined up trips left then sent a man in motion left to make it quirk left, drawing attention to the overloaded side. (Trips comes from triple; TMQ maintains that four receivers on the same side should be called the quirk, for quad.) Buffalo tried the same play near the goal line on its opening drive Sunday against New England; Sean Payton might even have gotten the play from that game. But the Bills being the Bills, the pass to the lone guy clanged incomplete; the Saints being the Saints, the pass to the lone guy was the winning touchdown."

2011 rock & roll hall of fame inductees
Mr Info replied to Sammyboy's topic in Off the Wall Archives
They also left off the J Geils Band. I'm ok with Diamond, James, et al, from an historical perspective - (Robert Johnson, Louis Armstrong, and Elmore James are in for Early Influence) and there are some acts in there that only border on R&R. But R&R isn't always black and white. Certainly some of the jam bands (moe, Phish, Cornmeal, etc.) play some R&R - should any of them be excluded from the R&R HoF? Louis Armstrong is in - should Chick Corea or Stanley Clarke be excluded? Should there be a separate HoF for rap? Besides J Geils, some others, IMO, that deserve inclusion are Deep Purple, Donovan, Stevie Ray Vaughan, B-52s, Rush, Todd Rundgren, Moody Blues and Joe Cocker. At least based upon the merits of some existing members. -
As much as I would like to see the Bills due to the increased excitement level, I am too busy with work to travel for the Browns and Pats games. Any suggestions on who to donate these to and how to go about doing it? Thanks

Baltimore is TERRIBLE to watch a game...
Mr Info replied to SDS's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Ok, they were lacking a song. It's good that every stadium is not the same but kudos to the Ravens fans in our section. No jerks at all and we had a good time speaking with them. Lots of noise and everyone standing at appropriate times in our section at the game. Some differences: Marching band before game and in end zone Cheerleader acrobatics The Ravens were way more animated (especially Reed and Lewis) before the game when they were introduced and interacted with the fans. Amazing how quickly we got back on 95 after the game. Outstanding highway access to/from the game. -
That CD was released over two years ago but it's good to see he's getting some recognition. He's concerts are a blast. Here's nutha band: Tea Leaf Green

The great fast food burger experiment has started!
Mr Info replied to Just Jack's topic in Off the Wall Archives
IMO, the artist who originally posted this did not use a scientific method. Her experimental conclusions that McD food would result in this outcome without comparison to a control is just bad science. Interesting that she did not order any condiments which would have supplied moisture that would have contributed to mold, etc. forming. If you cooked a burger well-done on your gas grill, you would have the same results. Especially if you placed it in an airtight container after it dried out as she did. I am no supporter of the golden arches or any other fast food as I don't eat that stuff but there is plenty of other data to challenge the nutritional value of this type of food rather than this method. It appears to be achieving the result she anticipated and visuals are convincing but it's not due to chemicals or additives. -
That's a great solution to obtain more heat from an existing fireplace. Related FYI: If you are building a house or adding a fireplace, consider a Rumford fireplace. This design will result in less heat leaving the room than the more standard-type fireplaces. When we built our house, the old-time mason we hired recommended this design and was pleased that we chose it. A bit more difficult for him but he knew we'd like it better for heat and he was so right. We have one on the first floor and one on the second and it can raise the temp of that room and those adjoining it (doors open of course) considerably. Rumford's will burn efficiently with well-seasoned wood and the subsequent maintenance is fairly easy as all that is left to clean up is ashes.

Bills @ Ravens Tailgate 2010 Information
Mr Info replied to R. Rich's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Six of us coming from Richmond. It looks great Rich, thans for putting it together - looking forward to it. -
My wife and I are flying up for this one but we are coming in Friday afternoon to also catch the Waters concert at HSBC. Though I am disappointed with the team performance (I was at last week's game against the Jets with some friends), I am not going to boycott as I bought my plane tix this summer for games I planned to attend. Tough year to be a fan but the tailgate and people make up for the junk on the field. I always see something different/unusual/odd at every game I attend. It's always fun and entertaining even if the team is awful.

I like both of them and the Rays are #21 in 2010 baseball salary but the Twins are #11 and only $300k from inclusion in the top 10: 2010 Baseball salary rank. The Yanks and Red Sox are running away from everybody but the Twins may not qualify as 'little' any longer. The Yankees average $6M per player more than the Rays. Wow!!

Jets tried to sign Edwards for inside information

Ehh...in central VA, from a practical standpoint, the local tolls across the James River are comparable to interstate tolls people are paying for work commute in upstate NY. There are thousands of people in the Richmond area that cross the bridges, use the downtown expressway, etc. every day and pay tolls. Yeah, no tolls on the interstate but I would rather there are tolls on that than the local tolls as I use the local roads more frequently. I don't live on the southside of Richmond but I hear the toll complaints from people that live there. In addition, VA will be placing a toll on the interstate between NC.

Season ticket base dropped by over 11,000
Mr Info replied to Chalkie Gerzowski's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I was very close to not renewing and decided to do it at the last minute. I have been able to scalp my tix to the Fins and Steelers games for OK $ but not near the demand as in previous years but, IMO, it is a reflection on the economy. But I will be attending the Lions and Jax games. Initially, I picked the Lions because I wanted to have a decent chance to see a win. But I used that same logic when I selected the Browns game last year. -

StubHub is like a stock market for sports teams
Mr Info replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I am having much more difficulty reselling my season tix for games I am not attending than in previous years. My impression is that it's a reflection of the economy. As you note, the Steelers game is going for around $70. That's still a $20 loss for me. -

TROUBLE SELLING TICKETS (ALMOST)EVERYWHERE
Mr Info replied to dwight in philly's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I am a remote season ticket holder and have had a much tougher time selling the tix to a few games that I will not be able to attend. In previous seasons, these went much quicker for more $. I am not selling them for much more than ticket price and they are not moving...not even inquiries. -
Anyone ever been to Alexs place in batavia?
Mr Info replied to outsidethebox's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Alex sold it about 10-12 yrs ago to a local contractor who subsequently sold it about 5 yrs ago to someone in Rochester. The food is good and has remained consistent through owner change. -
He would take 2nd place. Any Bills fan that had the privilege(?) to see Chad Pennington make like Barry Sanders and leave Eddie Robinson on the ground in the 2002 game will recall the slowest LB in Bills history. I look back at our 2001-2003 rosters and wonder when Cobb's team planted the ticket purchase idea in my mind?
