  1. Thanks, friend. Whether Trent is the starter or not on opening day, is there a good chance of at least bringing in a new QB to compete with the other 3?
  2. What amazes me is how much my life has changed since the Bills were last in the playoffs. Since the Throw-Forward, I have done the following: (1) Graduated high school (2) Seen my last three grandparents die (3) Graduated college (4) Gotten engaged (5) Gotten married (6) Graduated grad school (7) Bought my first house (and I am about to have my first child)
  3. We could do the same with McNabb I suppose. But I think the franchise amount for QBs is pretty high.
  4. As someone who has sold a number of items on eBay and Amazon, I would advise you just to take the item back. If he was really scamming you, then I would doubt that he would go to the trouble of paying the shipping and sending you the item back. Sellers runs into this all the time. Retailers certainly do. Retailers often have to take customers at their word on returns, even if the customers are clearly full of it. You said no refunds, but you didn't disclaim all warranties (there are implied warranties under the law) or sell it "as is." Perhaps you would win if this was ever hashed out, but you might not. You admit that he might be having the problem he is describing. There is nothing indicating that he is lying to you besides the fact that you tested a few times before shipping it out. It sucks, but this is part of the cost of selling items. Just because you sell something on eBay doesn't mean that you escape these sorts of hassles. The guy could file a dispute with PayPal and win. If you fight him, he may get the money back and you get negative feedback. Why not just take the item back, get your fees refunded, refund him, test it again and resell the item with a higher price to compensate you for the trouble that you might face in future. Perhaps make a point of disclaiming all warranties and selling the item "as is" in the next listing.
  5. The tendency to think that trends continue and the problem of getting used to such mediocrity has made us forget how quickly teams can turn their fortunes around in the NFL. Just a couple of years ago, the Dolphins went from 1-15 to 11-5. The Ravens went from 5-11 to 11-5 a couple of years ago as well. There are other good examples. You shouldn't expect anything, but having no hope is pretty silly. Imagine being an Orioles fan (like I am). That's real hopelessness.
  6. No doubt about Poz? Gailey and commentators have stated that he will remain inside.
  7. McNabb's former QB coach is the OC for the Rams. Spags was a coach in Philly under Jim Johnson. Maybe that helps McNabb feel more comfortable with the idea of going to St. Louis.
  8. There's no perfect solution. At least in my proposal, they have a chance to move the ball and get a first down. If you want to move it up to the 15 or the 20, fine, but I think the general approach is simple and as fair as OT can be.
  9. They should just have the team that wins the coin toss get the option of just starting at their own 10. That's enough of a challenge to drive for a FG from there that I doubt many people would find the OT victory unfair. The problem is starting at the 30 or 35 and then driving just 30 yards for a game winning FG without the other team taking the field.
  10. Wouldn't that make it a 4-2 defense? Or a nickel?
  11. Am very excited as well
  12. Possible 7th is last I saw.
  13. I have used an electric my entire life. Whenever I have tried regular blades my face got messed up. I don't know, maybe my face has to get used to it?
  14. I wanna talk about Heat!
  15. Show some courtesy, Curtis.
  16. I thought I read that he had no leadership.
  17. I always find it odd when posters link to KFFL re-reporting something said by a local paper the day before.
  18. Or... I don't know... people could actually pay for it.
  19. Farmers actually do not like it. They would get up at sunrise anyway. They do not need a trick to do so. The problem that dairy farmers have is that the milk truck comes at a different real time, but the cow expects to be milked at the same time as before. The reason for it is for energy conservation, which are dubious based on recent studies. Though there was some argument for extending it to Halloween so that there can be daylight trick-or-treating, it is darker in the morning now meaning that more children will be waiting for the bus in the dark this morning. It is hard to see how it overall improves safety for children.
  20. With the new FA rules there are simply far fewer free agents even worth signing.
  21. Sort of like how Kennedy played the Bills this year...
  22. The Bills front office and coaching staff didn't want to keep a passive aggressive baby needing constant reassurance.
  23. This is not a team full of leaders equipped to handle someone like TO properly. TO and the Bills are a bad fit.
  24. This probably means there is no contract and he is headed out the door, right?
