  1. But I said I'm playing until I'm 50.
  2. The guy in front of me was wearing a Buffalo Bills Micah Hyde jersey. I'm guessing that was the only one in the stadium?
  3. Thanks - where can I find the snap counts? I googled it but all I see are old games listed.
  4. It was a quiet tailgate, quiet game, quiet post tailgate and a quiet drive home with almost no one at the border. We won a game we were meant to win against a team that brought few away fans. No away fans at the tailgate = none of the back and forth chatter that usually gets people ramped up. I mentioned at our tailgate that it felt more like a family reunion than a party, if you know what I mean.
  5. I was surprised at how many times I looked at the sidelines and saw Dareus being held out for consecutive plays. Don't know if his snap count was down or if it was just coincidence that he was there when I happened to be looking.
  6. No kidding. I thought I didn't care about this season. I thought I would be going through the motions. Then last nights game came along and I was yelling at my TV and giving the finger to every sad sack Pats fan they showed. This morning my thoughts of the Bills going 6 - 10 this year have magically turned to thoughts of the Bills going 10 - 6. We haven't even played yet. The Pats losing is one mighty strong tonic.
  7. I'm still watching because we're going to go 7-9 and win the AFC East ... by 3 games :-) Just let me have this moment...
  8. Wrinkles? I've got wrinkles on my skin!!! #OverTheHill
  9. Pretty sure my rooting will have no affect on this game, but I'm hoping for KC to upset the enemy. May this game be the beginning of Brady's rapid decline.
  10. Yep, that one. The eyesight starts going, reflexes, timing. He's the GOAT but he's also 40. Him having a steady drop-off is in the realm of possibility.
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. 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.
  14. Shaw's reports on TBD! Real glad to see you over here Shaw.
  15. 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.
  16. Gotta be around $250, but our two fours are more expensive than yours and my pints run around $7 - $8.
  17. Thanks Astro - your reports are top notch!
  18. Thanks for making a dull sounding day entertaining!
  19. I can find things to get excited about. This D could be setting Micah Hyde up to have a career year for interceptions.
  20. 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.
  21. Go buy 10 EJ jerseys in the Bills store... or maybe I'd do something stupid with it
  22. Sadly no. He's a year younger than me. So he's not as ...... wise as I am.
  23. 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.
  24. 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.
  25. 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.
