Dan Gross

Yeah, remember last year, all the speculation was that we were going to cut him, he was saying the exact same stuff...what does it mean? It means he was benched (or the more politically correct term "asked not to play") for a half. BFD. But that's okay. Go back to the arm waving and gnashing of teeth...

Looked to me as bad as V.'s miss from two yards closer...same end zone too, correct?

Dillon: 72/18=4...and Willis doesn't get to play against our D every week...

Do you think now that he's seen how a dump-off works about 100 times while sitting on the bench that he might be able to throw it now?

Everybody sing along! Mike Patrick: Gosh it disturbs me to see you, Bruschi Looking so down in the dumps Every guy here'd love to be you, Bruschi Even when taking your lumps There's no man in town as admired as you You're ev'ryone's favorite guy Ev'ryone's awed and inspired by you And it's not very hard to see why No one's slick as Bruschi No one's quick as Bruschi No one's neck's as incredibly thick as Bruschi's For there's no man in town half as manly Perfect, a pure paragon! You can ask any Tom, Dick or Norman And they'll tell you whose team they prefer to be on Mike Patrick and Chorus: No one's been like Bruschi A king pin like Bruschi Mike Patrick: No one's got a swell cleft in his chin like Bruschi Bruschi: As a specimen, yes, I'm intimidating! Mike Patrick and Chorus: My what a guy, that Bruschi! Give five "hurrahs!" Give twelve "hip-hips!" Mike Patrick: Bruschi is the best And the rest is all drips Chorus: No one fights like Bruschi Douses lights like Bruschi Joe Theismann: In a wrestling match nobody bites like Bruschi! Patriettes: For there's no one as burly and brawny Bruschi: As you see I've got biceps to spare Mike Patrick: Not a bit of him's scraggly or scrawny Bruschi: That's right! And ev'ry last inch of me's covered with hair ESPN Crew: No one hits like Bruschi Pats fans: Matches wits like Bruschi Mike Patrick: In a spitting match nobody spits like Bruschi Bruschi: I'm especially good at expectorating! Ptoooie! ESPN Crew: Ten points for Bruschi! Bruschi: When I was a lad I ate four dozen eggs Ev'ry morning to help me get large And now that I'm grown I eat five dozen eggs So I'm roughly the size of a barge! ESPN Crew: No one shoots like Bruschi Makes those beauts like Bruschi Mike Patrick: Then goes tromping around wearing boots like Bruschi Bruschi: I use antlers in all of my decorating! ESPN Crew: Say it again Who's a man among men? And then say it once more Who's the hero next door? Who's a super success? Don't you know? Can't you guess? Ask his fans and his five hangers-on There's just one guy in town who's got all of it down Mike Patrick: And his name's B-R-E... W - B-R-U-S - K - B-R-U-S-C - oh! ESPN Crew: Bruschi!

None of whom are winning against "playoff" NFL teams. Oh, except Fox beat NE @ home, who will win the division by default.

I figured Houston because they were playing Cleveland (there's another team that will pick ahead of us).

I still don't think we'll be the first team picking in our own division....I wouldn't be surprised to see a 2nd place finish in the AFC East. Though Houston and San Fran did win...

I can't get the numbers from my replay but Patrick said Reed was slot right. Slot right stayed behind the first down marker, but a completion to him would have likely been a first down. Doesn't matter...Captain Dump-Off rides again...

I took a look at the Bengals board from last year after their start, and it was a mirror of this board this year...Lewis sucks, fire him. Palmer sucks, bench him. ...and before you laud the Bengals' performance this year, consider who they have beaten: CLE, MIN, CHI, HOU, TEN, GB.

Take that away and you still have over 100 yards rushing over three Q's.

Wow, thanks for reminding me....

I'll take the guy who is the best potential for running back at my pick. So we got a guy with a chip on his shoulder because he was drafted lower than his abilities. I'm not sweating it either way, and I don't care much for the people that make a big deal about it either way. I'm just tired of everyone picking on every word, every stutter, like they mean something.

Okay, then the Patriots have been neglecting their offensive line as well. 2 out of 14 in the last five years...Both those two are starting, with two of their starters players that were UDFAs, one was a second day pick. The Atlanta Falcons starting line's top pick is a fifth rounder...

Fine, you draft the great politicians/orators, I'll draft the guy who can run with a football...

Ever see the Silver Lake Serpent?

They do a nice "Last Night" (formerly "First Night" until the licensing fees got too big) celebration though...for a small town. We've been to the past couple...

Hey, with the way things are lining up against the Bills, we needed an out. The only other difference is we didn't have someone in from out of town, like the last three get-togethers, but that would mean blaming just about everyone else here....hey, there's an idea... Of course, we won't need the out.

Not exactly new, but it's been a few months... That was back in the olden days, when we could talk about this stuff on the main board....

With the "skills" that RJ would be teaching I can imagine their liability insurance costs have to be astounding...unless he focuses on the "run out of bounds to avoid the sack" drill...

2nd to the highlights from the 1999 Divisional Playoffs...Oh, I'm sorry, that one's a comedy.

Can't be. TD never resigns[sic] any of his players...

Well, even though Jay was questionable on the injury report, he "manned up" and showed up for a plate. So if the Bills win, you have us to thank. And if they lose, you can blame Rockpile for not showing up.

Judge rules in favor of Civics teacher...

As long as you don't watch Stand By Me just before going. Went out on it once. Wasn't as nervous as I thought I'd be. And I was on that bridge in Millbank's picture the last time I was there...don't get that far south very often.
