  1. Without doubt. Swayze skews gay, always. Like this.
  2. I really can't believe football fans give a rat's ass who plays at halftime, unless they are stuck listening to it at the game. And if I was at the game, I would much prefer something like this
  3. Can you imagine Belicheat telling the official he could hear the other team's coaches in his headset? I know some people believe everyone cheats. Most likely they, too, are cheaters. Just like thieves think everyone steals.
  4. Now that's some quality comedy, right there.
  5. Well, I only asked it once, so not sure what your point was there. And how do you know it was liquor, as opposed to some more exotic intoxicant, that compelled me to ask it once?
  6. Just to be clear: Let's assume KtD's stats are correct, and only 1% of the QBs picked in the 6th round are successful in the NFL (by some agreed-upon measure of "successful"). One might reasonably make the case that, any random QB picked in the 6th round has a chance to be successful, based on past experience. But that means very little when it comes to the chances of a SPECIFIC QB picked in the 6th round. Also, there isn't necessarily a causal implication between "round 6" and "success". But mannc makes a decent point. There might indeed be some causal connection if "round 6" also means, fewer opportunities, less coaching, etc. From a practical standpoint, QBs who look ready (or like they have the potential to be ready in a reasonable amount of time) for the NFL, rarely last the 3rd round. Indeed, most of them get swiped up earlier. But I think, with the right resources and mind set*, more later round QB prospects could achieve some success in the NFL. *This refers to the drafting organization, but probably also extends to the player himself.
  7. Could you tell if was drunk, or impaired in some other way? What I'm asking is, was he obviously blotto, or did he keep it stealthy? Just curious.
  8. And THAT'S why it is meaningless, and just doesn't matter.
  9. They were all decent comics, but you are right. This season had the potential to be the best ever, but it really fizzled, IMO. I think Clayton was the best of the bunch and I have no problem with him winning.
  10. It's mind boggling, Bill. It's hard to comprehend because it really is incomprehensible. But I still believe this decline will be what makes it easier for a complete makeover. There is huge prize to be had, and it is waiting for someone to strike. The only questions are: When? and Who? So far those who have shown interest are the kind of speculators who are in no real hurry to act. They aren't visionaries---just investors looking to cash in if/when things turn around. We can only hope a guy like Pegula steps in and starts making things happen. I should note I have been away from the area for some time, and don't have the connections I once had. So there may be stuff going on, and I simply am uninformed.
  11. No, I posted (now for the third time in this thread) to state I actively, vehemently, don't care where PFF ranks the NFL QBs. This is especially meaningless for QBs who have yet to really play an NFL game. How can they possibly rank Mariota, Winston or even Tyrod? A more intelligent approach, IMO, would to simply not rank these QBs, since there isn't enough real information on them.
  12. However, if you were to rank them on how ready they are NOW, you'd probably side with a guy who has had several training camps, time behind a quality NFL starter and some NFL gameday experience. Right? But, seriously, who gives a damn where these idiots rank the QBs?
  13. Wilmore's show has become very good, IMO. Not as good as Colbert, obviously, but pretty funny for the most part. It was quite rough in the beginning. Colbert was a big off last night, I think. But not too bad for a 1st show. Band is good.
  14. Looks like this is the "fresh hot crop". Yikes
  15. Fantastic! I prefer they predicted the Bills have zero wins.
  16. I'm not about to read this entire thread at this point in time. But if any BILLS fan isn't completely behind whoever is at QB for the Bills, well---they aren't really a Bills fan. It's OK to have favorite players, or believe one guy should start over another. It's fine to think the coaches got it wrong. But the time for grumbling has passed. I'm a BILLS fan. TT, Cassel, EJ---it doesn't matter. I want every one of them to excel. And I truthfully believe there are only a couple of handful of fans here who don't fall into that same category. If they have a Bills uniform on, and aren't a completely horrible human, we root for them to succeed. Try not to make too big of a deal about the morons who continue to push their QB crush, or bash a Bills QB, instead of standing behind the choices that have been made. They are few in number, and pitiful in spirit.
  17. Can't wait for the Bills to beat the Raiders 51-3 in the playoffs. I hear the weather will be nasty, but none of the fans will notice. Party pooper!
  18. Annnnnd, there ya go. Thanks. Two Six.
  19. I thought so, too. I haven't seen any definitive report he has been cut and he is still listed on the PS at BB.com. But I'm not sure he will last, that's why I said "currently the Bills have..."
  20. And keep in mind, currently the Bills also have Trick-shot Tanney on the PS. He could get some scout team work, too.
  21. I doubt it, but it is possible. Typically only 2 QBs dress these past few years.
