  1. Doesn't sound like T.O. is really thinking about spending more time in Buffalo. Source
  2. I have to say, I found this thread to be quite amusing. I have to assume that you are simply putting on an act to get a rise out of people. The other option would just be sad. "This form of logic" that you refer to is fundamentally flawed. I assume you know this since, once again, I have to believe that you are joking. But just in case: Your extrapolation has no scientific basis at all. You are performing a linear extrapolation of each single statistic from a system that is highly non-linear in nature. What exactly is your basis for this? A couple of examples (Moorman passing, etc.) have already shown the flawed nature of this approach. Do touchdowns really scale linearly with number of attempts? Do completions? You can't use extrapolation to "provide a comparable context in which the QBs can be evaluated fairly", unless the extrapolation itself is valid. To do so is simply junk science. You have repeatedly ignored the fact that each quarterback had roughly the same number of possesions. Brady was able to do more with those chances. You argue that Trent wasn't able to because of reasons that had nothing to do with him (penaltes, etc.). So if Trent had double the number of chances (possessions) that Brady had, his performance (productivity) would have been better, making him the better quarterback. Surely you see the flaw in that argument. You are attempting to judge quarterback performance solely based on statistics. This is no better than a quarterback rating (which someone else has pointed out). Judging based on statistics alone is pretty silly. A quarterback's stats may be reported as his, but they're obviously not his alone. They depend on everyone and everything around him. Surely a quarterback's performance has to be judged beyond statistics alone. The ability to lead, and the ability to step up one's game when it matters the most. Brady was able to do this, Trent wasn't. Does that make Trent bad? No, he was actually quite good. Not better than Brady, though.
  3. My parents moved to Buffalo last year, and when I went to visit over the holidays I went to Duffs. Great wings! Way better than anything I can get here in Florida.
  4. The one at 5:40 in part 2 is absolutely amazing.
  5. You should find what you need HERE
  6. He's got the Bills at #6 Dr. Z's Power Rankings
  7. Mike Celizic commenting on the fact that two-win teams aren't out of it yet: "In fact, there are six two-win teams in the AFC after five weeks of play and just one undefeated team — 5-0 Tennessee. Denver and Pittsburgh have four wins and New England has three. That's it." Yep, that's it. Except for Buffalo, douchebag! Apparently the Bills no longer exist, and New England is tops in the AFC East. Original story here: Slow starts won't sink playoff hopes
  8. The split votes may end up letting someone else take the top spot, but for now both Evans and Greer are in the lead. I didn't see where to vote at the link given above, but you can vote at: Can't Miss Plays of the Week
  9. Which was?
  10. Least: John Fina Most: Mark Pike
  11. You mean in the same way winning the lottery is 50/50?
  12. Don't know how reliable this is http://www.kffl.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=193039
  13. The game is actually on regular TV here in Orlando, so I'll be watching from my living room.
  14. Of course! He put those 3 players on the field didn't he?
  15. It would have worked if only it hadn't not worked?
  16. But...but...Jay Novacek said we were.
  17. That's genious.
  18. Yeah, what was brilliant about it?
  19. Doubtful. New England ran the clock out. They could easily have kicked another field goal.
  20. I don't know about the Stanly Cup. But it would be great if they win the Stanley Cup.
  21. "He brings to Houston a streak of 111 consecutive games with a reception which dates back to 1998." Umm...no he doesn't. Great fact checking there.
  22. Yeah, but only once when he was five!
  23. Hey, this is great! Maybe today we can have two guys rush for 100 yards against us
