  1. The dunk contest hasn’t been interesting since Spud Webb was in it, imo.
  2. "I have known many troubles in my life, most of which never happened." - Mark Twain
  3. We are in this for the comp picks. 😋 I’m not worried. He’s not a quick twitch kind of player, but he does a good job imo. If we had one stud, like a younger/healthy Von, it would make it a lot easier on everybody.
  4. Turn your head and cough! I feel a trophy in our future!
  5. You are forgiven for three Hail Mary’s…… That go in the Bills favor in the playoffs next year. Not that I would survive the first one, but I’m just thinking of the rest of you. I’m that kinda guy. 😋
  6. What do ya mean? 😋 I do also recall that GunnerBill was pretty confident in this, so I’d give it some weight.
  7. We decided we are not the camping type, so we hit fast forward. Woke up in a lovely villa in Stowe Vt. Technology these days is GREAT!
  8. There is the talent evaluation, then the high stakes game of jumping. Be aggressive, or hold? For that reason, if I could pick any “sporting event” anywhere in the world, I’d pick the Bills draft room.
  9. I think we need to differentiate between “blocking” and “reducing.” Nothing short of a dome will eliminate it, but I’ll be very interested to see how it works out.
  10. Pffft! I was mesmerized by the shadows of the flames dancing on the cave walls.
  11. A couple summers after 1970 we went on a little vacation across northern Ohio. I was probably about 12 at the time. We went to Cedar Point Amusement Park, the NFL HOF……and Kent State. They had metal statues on campus, and my strongest memory of that trip was looking at and touching where the bullets had hit those statues. It was moving as a 12 year old, and it’s moving now.
  12. It might be time to put the shovel down and stop digging.
  13. Well, this is going about as well as I expected.
  14. When sports talk radio gets to the NBA, I listen to music for a while. Sorry, I can’t help you. I was a big fan back when Buffalo had the Braves and we split season tix with another family. My sister would babysit for Bob Kauffman who lived right behind us and would play around with us at the community hoop. Fast forward to when my kids were that age……we would bribe them when we were traveling to NBA cities. They were big AAU players and we’d get them to behave by saying we’d take them to the game tonight if we approved of their behavior. One weekday night in Charlotte the younger son turned to me about 5 minutes in and said “they’re not even trying!” BINGO! If they don’t care, why should I?
  15. My system is trickier than I am smart, but I’ll put my wife or my 10 year old grandson on finding the closed caption option. 😋 Something (maybe Reacher on Prime?) has closed caption as the default. I tend to use it even when I don’t have to. I could really use it on Bodies. It’s odd, but I had zero problem understanding anyone in London. 🤷‍♂️
  16. I’m on episode #6 at the moment. It’s funny, sometimes I even think I know what’s going on! 😂 Side note: between the accents and the mix between voices and music it tricky to follow every word at times. It’s almost like I’m getting old or something…..
  17. Exactly. All of the above is the correct answer. Now, how would you rank them is a fair question, but it will be a different answer every year. We had the 13 second debacle which was clearly self-inflicted. The last 2 years we were devastated by injuries which were probably the main reason, at least in my mind. Oh, and the Chiefs are REALLY good, and they are beating everyone else too.
  18. It’s impossible to answer without context. Are we losing in OT in the Championship game every year? Or are we going winless? As long as I continue to be entertained, I’ll be focused on the Bills. If they revert back to a garbage team, I’ll still watch (I always have) but they will have less of my attention. I don’t need a Super Bowl trophy to make my life complete.
  19. Nobody is winning anything here.
  20. A fine dining experience compared to McDonald’s.
  21. You might want to throw a j/k in there, so as to avoid being blamed later.
  22. Is this what you do when boat traffic is light??? 😂
  23. If you put a frog in a pot of water then turn the heat on, the frog will slowly cook. Drop a frog into boiling water, and the frog population will revolt like angry Bills fans!!! .
  24. You do it for the music, don’t you! 😋 .
