In all seriousness, Wade Phillips probably has the worst respect to winning percentage ratio's of HC's in recent memory.
I suppose as I have found often in my short life, presentation of results often matter more than the results themselves.

After he had a terrible game against the Steelers some papers rightfully wrote about it, questioning his arm strength etc - but nothing over the top.
Yesterday he was very short with the media and today he lectured them about how their job is a priviledge, they have to be fair etc.
I've never heard anything like it in all my life.
Dude, it's pretty tough to act in a sitcom and quarterback an NFL team at the same time. Cut Dewey some slack.

Mr. Steeler Fan, I have seen pass-happy coaches. I know pass-happy coaches. Pass-happy coaches have run my team's offense. Mr. Steeler fan, Mularkey is no pass-happy coach.

Um.. don't the Broncos have a 5-5 conference record? If they win out, won't they have a 7-5 conference record? Isn't the best we can do 6-6 in the AFC? Therefore, don't we need Denver to lose?

No, the Bills lost their first 2 games and then won the 3rd over SF with RJ at the helm. And in the 2nd game, against the Rams, the Bills had a comfortable lead when RJ went out with (what else) an injury, and Flutie failed to do ANYTHING with the offense.
And IIRC, that "naked bootleg" against Jax was a busted play by Thurman.
BTW, when was the last time they won 6 in a row?
I believe that the Bills blew a lead in the Rams game, third of the season, one of the many times Tony Banks beat us. Johnson then won the first game of the season and the Wade Phillips era at home against San Francisco. Flutie came in early on in a game at Indy when Johnson went down in week 5.

Pressure leading to a poorly thrown ball, leading to a turnover.

Yeah, I have been on the reverse end of the crowd mentality growing up in a very liberal town and going the other way...
I am 22, voted and I really don't care what the numbers were for the rest of my generation. If you don't want to vote, fine. I am not going to force you to do something that is good for you. Besides I don't have full faith in the judgement of people who don't care enough to vote. If P Diddy motivates them to vote, that is pretty lame.
It's no one's duty to vote. That's like saying it's someone's duty to take advantage of their freedom of speech. Is spending a half hour to express your opinions the new definition of contributing to society? That's sad. Since I turned 18 I have voted as much as possible. Not just presidential elections, but school board, local, state, primaries, etc.. No one had to motivate me. I took pride in that expressed my opinion, not that fulfilled my civic duty.. geez.
People complain about the candidates that the parties throw out there, well, fine, next time try to promote candidates in the primaries that you prefer....
Really, stop talking and start walking. Don't like the system? Do what you can to change it, don't just sit there and complain.

Obviously you folks aren't serious, but anyway....
The real question is when this "trend" first came about. It's pretty easy to try to look back at possible sports/political correlations and then try to make predictions based on that.
There's two things here. The Redskins and any other team do better at home than on the road on average. The incumbant party wins more often than it loses... so it's easy to see why these things go together.

It's a lot worse than that. It goes much further than just 75 miles. B/c of the questionable belief that Syracuse stations cut into that radius, it goes significantly further. I have Sunday Ticket in Ithaca and we get blacked out too b/c we are considered to be in the Syracuse TV market. Thus when Syracuse is blacked out, we are blacked out.

What did you do for that year, if you don't mind me asking. I like hearing people's story on how they got their stuff together, it kind of raises my spirits.

All right, then a follow up question that might be answered by someone on this board. Is anyone here involved in investing sorts of things and living in upstate New York? I mean, is that doable?
Also, how does one get involved with a small business. Doing that seems exciting to me.

If your interest is in finance/investment... why not look at the local banks? The pay might not be great to start, but at least you have your foot in the door and have opportunities to advance... mortgage loan officer, branch manager, etc. Once you gain some expereince you might be able to narrow down what you specifically have a desire and skill for and move in that direction
I've tried to contact a few in Ithaca but so far, there don't seem to have any openings. Would I have to start at teller you think?
Did you know that Steelers fans dislike Mularkey?

Wow, I hadn't heard that. I thought I recall Joe Pendry being involved somehow too.
