  1. not that I am a big wine person, but lakeridge's wine is nasty, stick with the wines of the finger lakes, the soil is much more rich and the weather is more ideal for grapes (in the finger lakes)

    careful on 27, it is one of the more dangerous roads in florida...there really isn't a whole lot in clermont, the citrus tower,

    it is the fastest growing city in florida, you can tell your friends that.

    Ybor city in tampa is awesome if you get a chance go there, it kind of has the feeling of New orleans.

    Good Luck

     

    if you are into nature go south on 27, towards hell (miami) and stop at Bok gardens/ towers it's nice, but it's a drive from clermont, not to far from it is spook Hill, which IMO doesn't work, but maybe your fam will get a kick out of it.

     

    if you want to see a baseball game the devil rays are the cheapest ticket in baseball, I am not sure of their schedule but if they are playing, for the price of one ticket to a Bills' game you can pay for a family of 4...it's indoors too, if they are in town.

  2. first off, hi everyone.

    2nd I just check the sporting news draft site and they have him (Adam terry, SU) ranked 12th at tackle, he has been up and down all year on draft boards, mostly in the first round, being an SU fan and watching him, he was the only brite spot on that team, he is a strong athlete and gives his all every play, and has quite the mean streak in him. and is 6'8" 330 not bad size and would without question be worth a 2nd rounder. He is the type of player McNally could turn into a pro bowler

  3. I feel if we sign Demulling, it's to play center not guard, i think there is a fallout plan as such, if we trade for shelton then shelton starts at LT with Gandy at LG and Demulling at center, maybe cutting teague, if we can't make the deal then teague starts at center Demulling at LG and Gandy at LT or Gandy at LG, demulling at Center and teague at LT.

     

    I am hoping that we can get shelton he has so much upside and with good coaching something he didn't see with the cards he could be a top LT.

  4. one of my favorite subjects is the supernatural, maybe because like everyone I wonder what happens after death and I am not so sure that there is a heaven, or hell.

     

    I trully believe the the amityville horror is just a movie, i read the books part one and two, and the the movies all 7 (I think) of course after the first one things got very weird.

    if you are interested in a story a little closer to home (rochester) check out the story of the fox sisters.

    there are several books and several on line things you can find about them, some claim it was a hoax, and some claim it was real.

    personal like everyting I have to see it to believe it

  5. Restructure Moulds

    Restructure/release Bledsoe

    trade Henry to the Bucs, they lack a runner and cap room to sign one that doesn't have an easy contract, we'll get a 2nd rounder.

     

    resign Williams-I have him 4th on the DT list, but he is a Bill and should remain one for the remaining of his career

    Resign Jennings-there is no way he gets the contract that some are thinking, few if any teams have him in mind-but we should, other teams would move him inside, we can offer him something else, LT-something he wants.

    resign Stamer, and all the other worthy scrubs

     

    after all is said and done we should still have plenty of money for FA

    -Rick DeMulling-solid gaurd, colts don't have the cap room to sign, major upgrade to the revolving door at LG-good team player too.

    TJ Houshmandzadeh-just to see if they can fit it on the back of the shirt, he is a playmaker, and would compete for the 3rd WR with Reed.

     

    Draft

    2a-Marlin Jackson or Corey Webster-one of these guys will be there, both have great ball skills and are physical, and remind me of Clements

     

    2b-Rian wallace-Posey remains a pass rusher, but wallace is a sure tackler that expects a lot out of everyone around him-I like that he punched a teammate for not playing well. Nice

     

    3.Trade down-Mike Nugent-kicked in cold weather, and well.

     

    5-Alex holmes-TE-reminds me of Wiggins-good blocker and sure handed, maybe the diamond in the rough of this draft.

     

    6-Jonathon Goddard-OLB/DE-if he is there, could be a great special teamer, and sit. pass rusher.

     

    7-Mo Mitchell-OT/DT-from florida is 6'7" 370 pounds, played Guard last year, and DT before that. one of the strongest players in the draft. short yardage specialist on both side of ball.

     

    UDFA-RBs, WRs, DL.

  6. if we can get a earlier 2nd rounder via Henry trade, then I think CB is a real option, because of this, Greer and Thomas are our nickel and dime backs. Marlin Jackson and Carlos Rogers don't appear to be 1st rounder at the moment. Getting another good CB is an almost must, also we are on the eve of Pro Bowler Clements' FA. We need quality depth. Or OL, if Elton Brown is there take him.

    another player growning on me is Logan Mankins, not to play tackle but as a LG, could be drafted in the 3rd or 4th and start the next day. I also think that OLB is a position that should be addressed along with WR and TE.

     

     

    In a dream this would be ideal

    2a-Elton Brown-Pile mover

    2b-Marlin Jackson CB

    3-Mike Nugent

    4-Vincent Jackson TE

    5-Robert McCune OLB runs a 4.4 40 at 245 pounds but is already 26, former National Guard

    6-Micheal Munoz-Injuries

    7-Taylor Stubblefield -not fast but shifty could make a good Slot WR very productive in College

  7. It starts with the release or trade of Bledsoe, saving us a little cap room but getting us a 5th rounder to play with.

     

    Henry for the 37th pick, Frostproof is about 45 minutes to an hour away from tampa.

     

    Eric "Mr Buffalo Bill" Moulds takes a reasonable pay cut

     

    Still dreaming when in an attempt to save money the Jets release Sam Cowart. And he make his return to buffalo for a reasonable fee. And accepts playing the strongside

    Spikes-Fletcher-Cowart

     

    after Minn steals Williams, the raiders release Ted Washington, we jump on that.

    VH1 contacts Washington and Adams to do a reality based show of two large DT living together, gets great ratings.

     

    Jennings is resigned after he finds out he is the shortest LT in the NFL, and every other team wants him to play guard.

     

    NFL Draft

    2 (tampa's pick)-Marlin Jackson-TD knows that Clements is a FA after the end of 05, and will attempt to resign him, however Jackson is a good player that just slipped. You can never have too many good CBs.

     

    2-David Baas-rookie starter LG

     

    3-Chris Henry-he runs a poor 40 time (guessing) 4.6, Henry is 6'5" and 200 pounds with great ball skills, something missed when running 40s

     

    4, 5, 6, 7-Scrubs Scrubs and more Scrubs.

     

    recap

     

    Defense gets a new LOLB(Cowart), and a new nickel back (jackson) and now goes nearly 750 pounds up the middle

     

    on offense, line is now full of starters! athletic QB that may take less sacks and make things happen when they shouldn't. tall red zone WR in chris Henry.

     

    But Lindell returns :doh:

  8. if the Alt is a player that holds out and doesn't report to training camp, I think you have to trade him, Henry could become a distraction for the coming off season, I think we could score an early 2nd rounder, and get a player that can make a difference. One of these three will be there, Marlin Jackson, Webster or Rogers, and whilre I am happy with McGee I believe there is always a need for a good CB. And this will allow us to draft an OLman with the 2nd 2nd rounder, giving us two good players. the Draft is deep with running backs so drafting a later round back could still be a great move.

  9. I agree about williams, he has too many ties in Buffalo to leave. I am not to sure if I can get behind a rookie kicker: see the chargers-but a FA kicker even a drunken one would be okay.

     

    I think we'll score at least a 2nd rounder, one maybe is if the colts don't resign James they could trade a 2nd for Henry, that way they can address Defense-but I predict a earlier 2nd rounder, if the Dolphins draft Rogers, they'll trade that nice high 2nd for Henry.

     

    Signings-I like the DeMulling idea, Zereoue is good too.

     

    Draft

    2-Marlin jackson/Carlos Rogers/ Corey Webster-one will be there, McGee is a better slot cover, and Clements will be a free agent, this gives us more leverage.

     

    2b-Adam Terry-pot dream but with good coaching he could be great

     

    3-Rian Wallace-takes over Posey's spot by week 3

     

    4-vincent Jackson big WR/TE helps with our red zone O

     

    after this it's just gravy

  10. Not sold on small RBs I like Harris from WVA, big strong back to help tire the defense. But with all the underclassmen declaring, we'll be able to get a Solid UDFA to compete for RB #3.

     

    In my dreams I see us getting a 2nd rounder for Henry, if we are lucky it will be the raiders that fork over the pick. It will be the first time in many years that the Raiders have a proven back. And behind that line I forsee him doing better than McGahee statwise.

     

    Our first FA priority is Jennings, then if we can find a way to keep Williams great buit Edwards played well and Hopefully there is a reason for drafting Anderson. Again in my dream the Raiders release Washington (Like they did with adams) and washington comes home, and MTV in a great move puts cameras in the Washington house that he shares with Adams, if anything that would be funny. I miss Ted.

     

    I think a position in need is CB, I like what I see with mcGee and Clements (who should have been a Pro Bowler) But with an early 2nd we could score webster or maybe Jackson, they wouldn't start but McGee is undersized for the outside and those two along with others can match up outside. Also Clements is a FA after this year, and we need a "just in case" player, though I think they'll do everything they can to resign him.

     

    2nd pick in the 2nd round has to be OL, another Mich player should still be there in David Baas, or Elton Brown, Rob Petitti, Chris Kemoeatu or Marcus Johnson , all are better than Tucker, maybe not right away but soon,

     

    3rd I'd really like to replace Posey, I feel he doesn't make many plays and I really like some of the talent coming out. Player that I think could make a great impact is Rian Wallace from temple, he is a machine and at 6'4" 250 pounds he has the size to play LOLB.

     

    I would also like to see us draft another WR, I like Mark Bradley and Roscoe Parrish, both would make good 3rd WRs

     

    I know everyone wants a TE, but what they don't understand is this is a very average to weak TE class, maybe Everett who has the size and comes from a school that has produced some quality TEs lately, I like Euhus, he truly would have been a 3rd rounder this year and he has that magic word upside.

     

    I like what I see for our Future.

  11. In the small town that produced me, Wegman's was not only a great store it was almost a place to hang out. I remember as a child getting a Free cookie everytime I went there, so my childhood memories of Wegman's are great. Whenever you meet someone from western NY, wegmans is always brought up. I miss Wegman's more than anything else, if you asked my wife she would tell you it's the first stop we make when we get into Rochester....man, I am sad.

  12. this looks like a strong LT draft, although the idea of starting a rookie with Bledsoe in the backfield is scary, I am wondering, if and when Moulds restructures his contract, could we then afford to resign Jennings, his value is greater than Williams. However I would love to have them both back. Jennings should not command the same amount of money as Light, but who knows.

     

    Teague is not a LT.

  13. Since the year is coming to an end, thank God, it's time to reflect on all the things I won't miss about 2004

     

    in Feb, broke a fountain, at first the guy didn't care saying he never used it, afterall it was covered in mildew, and calicum and it trully was an accident. (oh by the way I do termite treatments in Oralndo, FL) A few weeks later he calls my company saying I needed to pay for it, and it had to be that one, and it cost him $200 5 years ago, well after tracking it down I found they no longer sell it without the base, the the total cost $1100, after painting it the way he wanted it.

     

    In March my wife was in a car accident, injured her back, is still in therapy, she was not at fault the man that was did not have car insurance, Thank goodness I listen to friend and got uninsured motorist coverage, only had to pay 500 and still fighting for lost time.

     

    end of march I broke my hand in Ocala while working drove home where I really found out it was broken, and after a long battle with workers comp finally as of three weeks ago was settled, but not before it hurt my already suffering credit.

     

    end of April, My Mother in Law found out she had cancer.

    Wife still in pain, hand still in Pain.

     

    June, Mother in Law started treatment, me and my wife bought our first house, for the purpose of helping her parents, Because my father in law (rightly so) didn't want to have to worry about money when his wife is facing the cancer. So they live with us.

     

    August first Huricane, without power for a few days. lost every tree in my back yard

     

    sept and sept, 2nd and 3rd. After ordering DirectV's NFL package, couldn't see opening game at home, no power.

     

    Meanwhile Wife is still in pain, and waking up to mother in law barfing.

     

    Nov. wife gets a new job, get this, she no longer works 9-5 like me instead she works 3-12, gets paid less and has a longer drive to work, yet she is happy so I am okay with it, but I never see her anymore, because I leave at 6:30 am for work. So I wake up, have to be quite, drink my coffee and go to work, then come home to my In Laws, have I mentioned that they are Cuban, and my M-I-L doesn't speak english and my F-I-L speaks very broken english. And my wife has Birds that never stop talking. And my car has had the service engine light on for weeks, but I can't bring it to the shop because we a low on money, so I can't drive it far

     

    Last week took the week off thinking we would at the very least have the morning together, and I had the vacation. Well the daytime person at her comany (she works for a TV station here in Orlando) had the same idea as me and my wife had to work ungodly hours, 9 am to midnight. Never saw her.

     

    Not to mention the election, I took it very badly.

     

    Other than that I've dealt with an 0-4 start, knowing it wasn't the end of the world, And thank god it wasn't because Jan 2nd is a new year, and I figure there is a need for balance, 2005 has to make up for 04

     

    Go Bills

  14. From the school that Jason Peters is from, Matt Jones, played QB this year, but is athletic and big 6'6" 240, runs a 4.6 40, could play WR, TE and 4th string QB.

     

    and don't forget Brian Moorman, Holder and Punter, not to mention he throws a nice pass(for a Punter) and is maybe the fastest punter in the league

  15. This is by far the weakest TE class in years, Miller has not declared and if he does it still is very weak compared to years past. If you look at the measurables of the top TEs and compare them to Ehus, Tim Euhus doesn't look bad. If you'll recall Euhus was in a run first offensive system in college, yet found a way to lead the nation. While its not fair to compare him with the Kellen Winslow, or other top picks, he before getting hurt was maybe the 2nd best rookie TE, behind Troupe. He reminds me of Chad Lewis, and with time I think he could be a very good target, But the notion that there is a great TE in this class is one I don't believe.

  16. Lindell is having a career year, why replace him, sure he can't hit the 50 plus but he has been pretty close to dead on.

     

    2nd-Keep jennings over Williams, Jennings has played great when he has been healthy, Pat Williams dare I say doesn't look as good as he has in the past, He's still worth keeping. What if? the Raiders release Ted Washington, and we sign him to a 2 year deal instead, washington played most of the year injury free, he still (I believe) lives in Buffalo, i think Adams is living in his house.

    Could you Imagine Sam Adams and Ted Washington in the middle, that 700+#s of fury. What team could run on us then?

     

    I have felt that LOLB has been the weakest position on the team all year, Posey has done little to nothing, In mop up duty Stamer has out done him,

    Rien Walllace from temple would be a great 3rd round pick, and has the size to play the strongside. But at the top of needs is interior linemen.

    Chris Kemoeatu, Baas, or brown could be had in the 2nd or 3rd as well.

    imagine McGahee without the tackles for losses, his numbers would be great. but defenses get into our backfield too easy now.

  17. Henry stays in Buffalo, First his contract doesn't hurt us, 2nd no one will offer what he should be worth, 3rd there is always a need for a back up RB, Shaud Williams isn't bad, but Henry is better. It doesn't hurt us to keep him. and after the year is done and he becomes a FA so be it, if we trade him we'll have to draft another RB, so why not just keep him.

  18. The President of the company I work for gave me his tickets to the Champs Bowl last night. When will Syracuse be a top 25 team again?

     

    as far as what I saw, Johnson the WR for GT (#21) is going to be good, assuming he has someone to get him the ball, he has great ball skills, but lacks burst. the sick thing he's a Frosh!

     

    On Syracuse's side, Reyes will not make it in the NFL, But LT and Giant Adam Terry will, while it really didn't matter because the rest of the team sucked. He really stuck out.. On one play he pulled outside and got his block, a Safety playing up was his target, he drove his man 20 yards down field. Too many other players missed their blocks and the play went no where, but I'll tell you Terry is quick and Mean, great combo! If in the 2nd round he is still there, Buffalo should draft him. But I'm sure he'll be gone by then.

  19. IF and it's a big if the Oakland raiders can do what they did yesterday (sunday) than they win. Jacksonville is not built for high scoring or coming back. Tenn will beat Denver, Plummer will be pulled. Pittsburg's only loss I think was to baltimore, I hope they seek revenge.

    The other game is the Jets /NE game, We need the Jets to win, also SD to beat Indy.

    reason with a Jets win and a NE loss that gives the steelers home field reguardless of the outcome with the Bills, after beating (hopefully) a Physical team like the ravens they'll need to rest their stars, while I think we could beat them reguardless it would make me feel better knowing that Pittsburg has Home field.

    Then if SD beats Indy and the stars are in place we play SD in the Wild card game, then face Pittsburg. Hopefully indy beats NE and we play Indy in Indy for the AFC championship.

     

    Easy enough
