Mark Kelso hinted at the same on Sunday's pregame. I'm going to be sure to be in my seat early.

Sorry, missed it, but I concur, It is outrageously good!

Well don't forget the value of the franchise will still grow, as well. The TV contracts in 5-10 years will make another jump forward. All in all, it's still a nice investment, even with the overpay on the estimated value.

Saw this little nugget in Peter King's MMQB. With the $30 mil the Bills currently clear, it means he should recoup his $1.4 Billion purchase price in 26 years. Not too shabby... http://mmqb.si.com/2014/10/06/nfl-week-5-peter-king-monday-morning-quarterback/ Quietly, every franchise in the NFL just improved its bottom line by $24.2 million a year, without any effort whatsoever. The new deal the NFL signed Wednesday with DirecTV, an eight-year contract worth a minimum of $12 billion (I hear it’s slightly more than that) beginning in 2015, is an increase in rights fees for satellite TV from $1 billion to $1.5 billion per year. That $500-million-per-year increase nets out to $15.6 million per team. Add to that the new $275 million this year from CBS for doing the Thursday night package ($8.6 million per team) and you’ve got $24.2 million a year more in found money for NFL teams from TV revenue alone. (To be clear, the DirecTV contract starts in 2015, and the $275 million will certainly be the floor that the NFL accepts from whichever network does the Thursday night package in 2015.)

I thought for sure this was going to be another Jerry Hughes for NASA thread.

I think you're probably right about the genius part. Watching it back I think he's going for a Tommy Smothers type of befuddlement and he's hitting all of the right notes.

His delivery needs some work, but the writing was top-notch. As Johnny used to say, "Good stuff."

Respect right back 'atcha Thanks for the info, you're inclination makes sense to me.

Just wondering if anyone knows the story of the similarities between the logos of the Bills and Howard University? Howard has been around since 1893, so it would appear that the Bills lifted the logo from them when they ash-canned the old standing buffalo logo in the early '70s. Anyone know the story of how the current logo came to be?

One more, Lunetta's in Buffalo makes an amazing Turkey Sub. They roast an actual turkey daily and hard-carve the meat. Awesome!

Orton, play action pass to Chandler 20 yards down field, Chandler hook and ladder to a streaking ( clothes on ) Sammy Watkins for an 80-yard TD, Will never happen, but imagine how much you would freak if it did.

What about the WGR app?

What great news for Buffalo and Detroit. It is very heartening that people like Ralph, Bill Gates, Warren Buffet and many others are giving large chunks of their money back to charitable causes. You can't take it with you - philanthropy rules! ( Here's a list of the heroes: http://givingpledge.org/) Thank you, Mr. Wilson.

http://www.kavinokytheatre.com/ Went to the Kavinoky Theatre last night and saw the play Over the Tavern, It is set in 1959 Buffalo and it follows a Polish Catholic family. The youngest son is questioning Catholicism and clashes, hilariously, with the head nun at his school. The play was a laugh riot from start to finish and features a lot of local references, including a recurring subplot revolving around a take-out meal from Chef's that never seems to arrive. Due to overwhelming demand, the play has been extended through next week. The Kivinoky is a local gem - as plush as Shea's, but only 10 rows deep. Take your significant other, it's truly a night out that all Buffalo couples will enjoy together.

Only Bills player cut for admitting that he didn't study the playbook at all during the week and cost the team a game. Winner, winner, chicken dinner.

Reminds me of a joke: Why did Tigger have his head in the toilet? He was looking for Pooh.

When the sale process was underway, Pegula was continually described as a "cash-flush multibillionaire." Still can't get over the fact that he was OUR guy and not some ominous figure from Toronto or LA. Thank God for small miracles.

I love Bocce, but Lahacienda in the Falls is soooo good.

I made it 3 minutes in before clicking over to Red Tube, let me know how it ended up.

Viola's in the Falls has the 2nd best Steak and Cheese subs on the planet. The first? Mariposa's on Military Road in the Falls. Mrs. Mariposa is about 90 years old and still works the grill. They don't have double steak like Viola's because they give you double on every sub. Try it the next time you're in the Falls, it will change your life.

LOL

Heard somewhere that both injuries weren't serious ( fingers crossed). haha, it was driving me crazy when the announcer kept putting a hard "h" in Bradham. Kinda like Steve Tasker saying "vehicle."

Love the Natalie Wood, James Dean shot as well as the Alien puppeteers and the Life of Pi meets the Niagara Falls Aquarium shot. http://all-that-is-i...es-iconic-films

Even if Orton falls flat on his face, I will respect Marrone for pulling the trigger. It's almost unheard of in today's NFL. Most coaches would ride the First Round QB to their early NFL grave. Bravo, Doug!

I bought Sirius Radio when Howard moved over. I still listen to his show most days when I'm in the car. I'm not much of a fan of the sycophants and "WhacK Pack" stuff ( Though, Bigfoot's manner of speech is highly addictive, it is) but, I think Howard is in a league by himself as far as interviews go. This year alone he has had amazing sit-downs with Paul McCartney, Graham Nash, Lady Gaga, Francis Ford Coppolla, just to name a few. His interviews are some of the most insightful and deep-reaching that most of these subjects ever give. By the way, the recent replay of his interview with Vincent Gallo and the vitriol that the native son has for Buffalo was radio gold. Furthermore, Howard has never been more relevant. By going on AGT and reinventing himself as a tough judge with a heart of gold has endeared him to millions of new fans. He has gone from angry young man to wise elder statesman - much like many of you on this board. RIP Eric!
