Oh, I get it. I don't think there's anything wrong, or even that vain about using a nice products. It's the whole package of stuff that I meant when I said "extreme". Hell, I've been using a nice facial moisturizer for years. It really has helped my skin. (Ducks and awaits abuse.) Oh, I wasn't skeptical at all, Mr Ball. I have no doubt someone paid you to keep those stalker photos you take off the net.

Glass of pop? With a nice thick ribeye? They're making this new drink called "red wine" you may want to give a shot. I hear it's all the rage in the "first world".

I swear by Cottonelle.

I didn't know you were a "professional photographer". I'll tell the best of those women, "I'm not a gynecologist, but I'll take a look at it."

Jesus. What preposterous bulls#it. We should do a similar thing with sports writers/reporters. Well, not "should" (because this crap is unbearable nonsense), but "could". It would be a lot funnier, too.

Indeed. As long as TT can find the open receiver, if it isn't his first option. Even with an effort to stop the run, some receivers will be covered. I want TT to show he can look to 2nd and 3rd options, and deliver to them. So far, I liked what I saw. But need to see more, and need to see what he can do if running isn't an option.

Yes, she does look very nice---for any age, actually. But it is important to note the excellent lighting, fine photography and Photoshop that goes into these photos. Combine that with the advantages you get when you are a celebrity, or rich, or a rich celebrity and you realize it is a bit easier for Sharon Stone to look like this, than it is for your wife of the same age. Most people simply don't have dietitians, trainers and access to the best/latest facilities, plastic surgeons---as well as makeup specialists, expensive skin products---I could go on, but you get the point. When you are a glamours actress, your looks are vital to your job. For most people though, keeping this kind of regime is just extreme vanity. When Bruce Jenner did those Vanity Fair (I think) photos after his sex change, I heard women say "I wish I looked that good." Some of them were fairly attractive women. They didn't seem to understand those photos had been taken by a great photographer, with perfect lighting, dressed especially by designers and probably touched up considerably. Just about anyone could be made to look good, under those conditions.

IMO, EJ had, by far, the best QB performance of the night. Now, keep in mind it was with the 3's, but that cuts both ways. Multiple reads, good movement in the pocket and great throws. One bad toss doesn't take anything away from that. Every QB makes some bad throws. Taylor was terrific, too. Didn't get to his 2nd and 3rd reads enough, IMO. But his passing looked pretty good, and he makes things happen with his feet.But I'll be nervous if he chooses to run that often. I think his decision making needs to be a bit better---and I'm guessing it will get better, or he won't last through the season. Cassel did what he needed to do, I think, to stay in the mix. Very conservative and controlled. Passes were mostly fine. I HATED that they didn't let him take a shot into the end zone before trying the missed FG. A nice TD toss, or even attempt, would have gone a long way for him, I think,

Bill feels about CBs the way the African American community feels about the Ferguson police force. I kid. Bill doesn't have CBs, he just has absolutely no respect for them.

Just a bit more possible info on the IK/Geno incident, Seems Geno might not have owed IK any money at all: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/08/15/enemkpali-is-done-talking-about-geno-smith/

I think I have one that fits here, and into Gug's sock thread. I am prone to the gout (a very First World condition). My triggers tend to be beef, shellfish (usually shrimp, crab and calamari) and to some degree the cured meats (think capicola or prosciutto). I have it under very good control, for the most part. But it can flare if I have too much of these foods in a short span of time (say two-three days in a row). Well, it typically affects my big toes and balls of my foot. So, as a preventative measure, I put Salonpas patches (or the less expensive generic patches) on each toe at night. (If I feel it coming on in other areas, I also put patches there---ankle or knee, usually). Then I cover my feet with white crew socks. Well, I've tried several different brands of socks (I have my standards---all/mostly cotton, not too thick, no tube socks, not too thin, can't roll...). Yet these socks get a hole in the heel after about 5-6 wearings. My regular socks wear forever. But not the white ones. Might be because I sometimes to out on my concrete floored patio to drink and smoke cigars, and forget to throw on slippers or shoes, but still. I want white socks that I can wear where ever I want, and won't blow the heal...keeping in mind they must be all/mostly cotton, not too thick, no tube socks, not too thin, can't roll... Is that too much to ask?

Wow!

Tasker still saying EJ "fumbled a couple snaps". That's how I know it was the center's fault/

Pricey backup, perhaps. But unless there is some veteran backup on the block, I just can't see the Bills going into the season without him. At least I hope they don't make that mistake again.

Who? Who?

The Bills must have GREAT QBs. How else can you explain this: EJ had, by far, the best throw of the night and the only TD pass. His QB rating was over 100 (120 something?) I think. (Yes, against 3rd stringers---great throw is a great throw, no matter who is in the game) This despite having to deal with two terrible shotgun hikes from the center (he's playing with 3rd stringers, too) and 3 dropped passes (two of them brutal) And yet in the opinion of most here, he did NOTHING to help himself, because his last throw was off the mark; I mean the Bills must be LOADED at QB.

I've had less to drink tonight than in any night the past 6 months. No time to go to the kitchen to refill. I wasn't as prepared as I am during the season. It's preseason for me, too!

Might have played some. Kupper was the disaster who make those bad snaps.

Beat me to it. Tasker is the train wreck.

Freaking Tasker talking about Simms being behind the top 3 QBs. something like "He's just watching waiting for the train wreck..."

But LIVE the DB had a chance. Only in the replay he didn't. See?

Maybe the first bad pass by a Bills QB tonight. Probalby thinking of running the ball. still...

Nope. Not tonight

#3 for this week only. I suspect he will start, or be #2 next week. Rex will move them around.

Yup. And he's still having a good game.
