  1. Still feeling an optimistic 10 - 6 (give it to me it's pre-season). Sweep the Jets and the Dolphins, Brady will be almost a year older when we play him than he was at the Superbowl. A year at 40 is not like a normal year, he may be faltering by December 1-1 with the Pats. Tyrod is being coached to stay in the pocket for the pre-season but we all know he'll be off like a jackrabbit when the season starts. Shady is Shady, he'll be fine. The D looks to be fine this year. Clay and Boldin will set some kind of NFL record for 7 yard receptions.
  2. Either 10 - 6 or 4 - 12. Before Watkins was traded any Bills playoff hopes came down to sweeping the Jets and the Dolphins + playing solid football and catching some breaks. I don't think anything has really changed now Sammy is gone. If the Jets + Dolphins are going to be as bad as I think they are then this team should still be capable of sweeping them.
  3. McCoy once called Watkins a Ferrari in the garage. He didn't mean it the way it turned out, but that's what Watkins has been, a Ferrari in the garage - constantly needing repairs. I wasn't jumping up and down when I found out about this trade, but I'm okay with it.
  4. Shaw's reports on TBD! Real glad to see you over here Shaw.
  5. My wife took me to see him in 2011 at the CNE in Toronto. I didn't really know his music or him. The first thought I had was **** there are a lot of people here to see him. As the show rolled on I was surprised by just how many songs I knew and loved but didn't realize it had been him singing them. I believe this was a sort of warm up show. It was very close after the Alzheimer's announcement but Glen was knocking out most of what he played with what seemed like little trouble. When he slipped up the crowd was forgiving and full of love. I'm glad I had a chance to see him and understand just what a legend he was.
  6. Gotta be around $250, but our two fours are more expensive than yours and my pints run around $7 - $8.
  7. Thanks Astro - your reports are top notch!
  8. Thanks for making a dull sounding day entertaining!
  9. I can find things to get excited about. This D could be setting Micah Hyde up to have a career year for interceptions.
  10. I always go here http://www.frankiestikiroom.com/it's small, it's funky. You'll either love it or hate it, not a lot of middle ground at Frankies.
  11. Go buy 10 EJ jerseys in the Bills store... or maybe I'd do something stupid with it
  12. Sadly no. He's a year younger than me. So he's not as ...... wise as I am.
  13. Yep. When I first read this I was stuck in about 2 years of almost unemployment. I had been a computer programmer for 16 years, then a post-production manager at a TV production company for 7 years. I was stuck on thinking I was still those 2 things, but I wasn't that at all. My programming languages were outdated and I had no more interest in TV. But I kept saying I was those things. Had to drop it all. Move one. This article was the one that made me realize I wasn't that anymore and no one cared about what I was anyway.
  14. It's a great self help article in that way. No touchy feely stuff in this one. I don't have any plans on the wealth part. But this has put me on to working with someone who is following this type of idea. They are around year 4, now an expert in the field, and they moved me into almost full time as a result. I wasn't in this for the money, but as a soon to be 50 year old, this approach has me on to a new career doing something interesting that I didn't think I'd be doing at this point in life. A friend read it at my prompting last year and has switched up their outlook on life as well.
  15. I first read this 4 years ago. Life was crap and I was stuck. This is the one that got me back on track. Every year I have posted it somewhere different. This year it's Two Bills Drive's turn. A bit of self help for skeptics. Working for me, in its own weird way. Might work for you, worth a shot.

  16. Can't remember. I knew I was at night school that night so I deleted it.
  17. I deleted the email, but the Bills sent an email today saying there will be a practice at New Era on June 15th* Great chance for people to bring their kids to the stadium and check things out. I like the idea of bringing a practice (maybe a few of them) back to Buffalo. *If someone else could post the email that would be great
  18. Something that gives me brutal food poisoning, so I'm begging them to kill me the next day.
  19. I like giving him the reigns too. There's an idea that he hasn't proven himself enough to rule the land - but are guys who are proven available to teams like Buffalo? I don't know enough to know, but my gut tells me proven winners aren't coming here. We need to take a flyer on someone. Random thought here - I wonder what a guy like Tim Lieweke could do with an NFL franchise like the Bills? Tim seems to right bad clubs then leave them just before they shine.
  20. I'm fine in huge crowds - 60,000 people = no problem. Put me in a room with 12 people and I'm doomed.. Are you invited to parties?
  21. I had two single seats to the Hamilton, Ont show last year. The venue ended up letting me swap them the day before the show for 2 seats together on the floor by the sound booth. The setup for the show is a big deal and they don't know how many extra seats they can squeeze in by the booth until the last minute. Also, there were better seats going on sale the week and 2 - 3 weeks after the show went on sale on Ticketmaster than there were the day the seats went on sale. So if you're into tickets for this show keep checking.
