  1. How did EJ Manuel go #16? Somebody decided they needed a QB and in a panic got it wrong.
  2. Buyer be SMART. If you don’t have a deal worked out, you’ll get no more than a bag of balls from me.
  3. They call the draft a crap shoot for a reason. True for every position in every round, but you need to get that QB right. That is increasingly the #1 rule in the NFL.
  4. I saw the title and thought of the TV show News Radio. That was a great and very underrated show. The tragic loss of Phil Hartman wasn’t easy to overcome.
  5. My actual favorite is Fall, but I know what comes next (the cold, dreary weather and short days of winter), so it loses a few points. Saturday is better than Sunday because you don’t have to go to work the next day. I don’t mind heat the way my wife does, despite being unbearable at times. So with that in mind, I’d weight them like this: 1) Summer 2) Fall 3) Spring 4) One week of nice winter 47) The rest of winter
  6. …..and the Jets said OOPS!!! 😂
  7. Were you looking for your third grade home room?
  8. My first thoughts. It would be great if SVPG can get up to speed and we could put McGovern back at LG. I want our best 5 out there, and to maintain as much continuity as possible.
  9. How it turns out is not simply a matter of Diggs or no Diggs. There are countless factors, and if we disappoint he’s one of many things to look to. His personality wears thin. Everybody wants to win. Does he want to win more than Josh? .
  10. We all know he does cool things with kids, especially in the stadium and in very public ways. That’s all great. That does not negate the problem he can be in team chemistry. .
  11. I’ve only got a couple, and both are pretty generic. I think they were Christmas or birthday gifts. I’ve got a strangely large noggin and a lot of hats just don’t fit. The two I kept are ok at best. If I find a tennis hat that fits well I’ll buy a half dozen of them. My son and I are the ones in the different color helmets when we white water raft. In HS football they couldn’t find a helmet to fit him (and he’s no giant) and the guy told him “that thing is deceptively large!” 😂 I love the retro stuff, and you have a nice collection.
  12. That too. Ever the optimist, I’ll take the over on that one. Time will tell.
  13. I don’t hate Stroud for any reason, but I sure hope Diggs shows his true colors. Let the world know who you are (again), Stef.
  14. I like Keon’s body control. I’m not sure Higgins has that level of athleticism, but I understand the comparison.
  15. I love our traditional uniforms and logo. I think they are among the best in all of sports. Nice job above, but I prefer the traditional look.
  16. Everything a mall used to sell me is now delivered to my door. If we do ever find ourselves in a retail situation, we generally end up taking a picture of the label and ordering from home because they don’t have the exact size, color, etc that I want. Traditional malls are going the way of the typewriter and the abacus. The “lifestyle centers” with restaurants and dinner theaters, etc are the best option for that space, but obviously the location remains critical. My preference would have been a downtown stadium so I could walk to everything from my hotel. I will happily “settle” for anything as long as the Bills remain in WNY. I read what you wrote, and it seemed perfectly clear and sensible to me. Of course, I’m not just trying to pick an argument.
  17. I spent four hours at a funeral (seriously). At least I liked him a lot, and I didn’t see any more of that game.
  18. Are you saying you will buy all of us Indian food? I think you’ll have some takers on that!
  19. ….and by “executive”, they mean that he’s the VP in charge of laundering towels after practice.
  20. But first…….grab one of those giant carts and pick out the longest extension cord and one of those massage chairs. Set up right in front of the big screen, and invite all your friends. Don’t forget to bring a sign that says “Reserved” in case you need to hit the can or look for snacks. Losing your seat would be a rookie mistake.
  21. I think you’ll be fine. There are other lots. Twenty years from now you and the kids will remember the game and the time together, and parking won’t even come to mind.
  22. I remember my oldest sister getting married, and Fr Timlin basically said from the altar “I don’t know why we bother, almost everyone winds up divorced!” I didn’t pick up that maybe he’d been drinking, but I was younger then. I think she might have stayed married just to prove him wrong! Are priests allowed to use tools like that???
  23. He will provide all the contractors, and save time because they are already owned by the unions and scammers so there will be no new negotiations needed. I call it being practical.
  24. It’s the preseason, so I’m thinking with my eyes closed? I kid, mostly. Despite other obligations it’s set for record. You have to see a bit of the new guys, right?
  25. He just wants to win. Before preseason! He hopes to eventually do it in Dallas with his bother, so the Texans gave us the Vikes 2nd rounder then chopped years off his commitment. I’ll take the Vikes second over a guy who seems to have quit on his team, despite my desire for a stud to free everyone else up. .
