Figster and the West Valley Railroad Portal: Live Story
Augie replied to BringBackFergy's topic in Off the Wall
I have to wonder where the technology came from for those Nixon stickers. -
Before last night the head to head for Sabalenka/Pegula was 7-2. It’s not like she is not capable of beating her, because she’s done it before. It’s also helped that Sabalenka had a walk over in the prior match, much to her televised surprise (which I found interesting). But that’s not an excuse, that’s just the kind of thing that needs to work for Jess, not against her. If she never gets a major, she’s still had an amazing career. I really admire people like Jess and Emma Navarro. Forget the silly people who said she’s a rich girl with a hobby. This is world class stuff, and I admire anyone who is willing to work that hard to get there. The conditioning alone is grueling beyond what most people realize. Oh, then there is the tennis, and you have to climb to the pinnacle. Nothing is given to you, everything is earned. If your family is worth billions, a lot of people will wilt before they commit that hard.

It’s not worth the effort. If you go by 2 and 14, it’s clear that you’ll be dwelling on the negative. We were 2-14 the first two years of my marriage. My bride asked me “why do you do this to yourself?” Now she proudly wears a Bills shirt that says “I Married Into This” and we are sitting in a hotel room in Williamsville looking forward to the game. We’re excited for a new season to enjoy, warts and all.

Well, we put our kicker on IR and we are running out of CBs again before a game has been played. Does that count? Please let that be the end of this nonsense! If there’s any food to be poisoned, I say we make it a bad batch of crab cakes for the visitors! .

I wish this was at least mildly surprising. What lingers like this??? How old is this “ailment”?

I stand firmly behind nobody has anointed him as coach for life.

That’s quite a leap you made there! I hope you didn’t pull anything.

So your answer is a 35 year old guy who had never been a HC and has only been an offensive coordinator for one year? That’s quite a gamble with so much at stake. How long are you willing to give him to see if he pans out? How many years of Josh’s career are you willing to risk wasting?

Barry Switzer won a stinking Super Bowl. Using that as your only measuring tool is ridiculous and simple minded. This never gets a good answer from the perpetually dissatisfied.

I’ll be the first to come out and say it…... I am not the new minority owner.

Uhhhhh, now you’ve done it…..

2025 U.S. Open - **update Jessica Pegula (4 seed) now in semifinals

Tennis, you say? Big fan of tennis! Good luck tonight Jess! -
That is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever read here, and that’s saying something. My 11 year old grandson knows the difference between right and wrong. I’m not going down any rabbit holes you suggest. I think at one point in your life you knew right from wrong without having to twist things around. Look, I don’t really care. I’m not making this out to be a big thing, and no lynchings are in order. But don’t kid yourself.

If you didn’t notice a theme in the draft, free agency and this season’s coaching hires, I’m not sure what to tell you. Of course, we still need to see that one extra ball bounce our way. We’ve been very close, and that has made you hate him even more. It’s not my style, and I’ll never try to convince you of anything, so there’s not much point here. Carry on with your misery. I’m not overly optimistic about this weekend, but I am feeling good for this season as a whole. Time will tell.

That’s just silly. Nothing ever happened until it did.
-
If you don’t believe that people can learn and grow in life and in their careers, you are missing some important stuff in life. Josh is better than he was 5-7 years ago, why can’t the same be true of others? I mean, other than your frustration blinding you?

People want to make excuses and fancy arguments. Stealing is stealing. You know right from wrong, no matter how good youn are at justifying what you would prefer.

We should invite him to a tailgate. -
2025 U.S. Open - **update Jessica Pegula (4 seed) now in semifinals
Augie replied to zow2's topic in Off the Wall
It was really odd. They showed her in her first few minutes of warmups and she hit a forehand and had a strange twinge. It was the last ball she hit. As curious as I am, I won’t speculate on what that was. I wish her well. -

Season Opening Week Has Finally Arrived!!! -- What's on Your Menu?
Augie replied to HIT BY SPIKES's topic in Off the Wall
We will wander the aisles of Wegmans and grab some things we can throw into our disposable cooler for the rental car ride to the stadium. We will not starve. Anything better than that will be due to the kindness of Bills fans around us, which is always a wonderful thing. -
Happy 64th Birthday (two days late) to Figster!

Happy (belated) Birthday! I had no idea you were so young. -
