GottaRun

Hammer - Is there a prepay option this year? I'm usually with Al (eh!) and Tobin but I might have to drive in solo for the opener. I don't need to be on the hill, just in the lot.

Thanks for sharing - it was a great moment for sure.

Saw him last night in Hamilton. 2 hours 50 min, no one was pulled on stage, didn't seem too gimmicky at all. Phenomenal Mull Of Kintyre will full pipes and drums band from the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders. Definitely exceeded my expectations.

Excellent.

TIL - when you need to enlarge an existing door-handle hole due to the old hole being smaller than your new lock or handle, you must first cut a round slug smaller than the existing hole, then shim the slug to be a tight fit. This allows the guiding bit to bite into something (slug) so your hole saw doesn't slip everywhere.

Thanks - good to know.

This may be the first time the words 'Better Cleveland in December' have ever been uttered. In my world all of the Florida road games will be Nov/Dec - Make it so NFL!!!

I'm seeing him Thursday in Hamilton with my wife and my 89 year old in-laws. Told my in-laws to bring ear plugs and my father in-law says 'no problem, I still have some from the Mack Truck plant' - He hasn't worked for Mack truck for at least 23 years!!!

I'd rather have us with Tampa, Jacksonville and Miami. That's a November/December road trip I'm up for. Who the hell wants to road trip to Cleveland, Pittsburgh and Cinci in December?

Was glad to see them go, but I'm ready for them to come back. I haven't heard 'Simply Irresistible' for a couple of years now or whatever crappy old songs they were dancing to.

So sad, what a waste of life. May the victims find heaven and the attackers find hell.

Great to hear, seeing him in Hamilton, Ont next week. Really looking forward to it (please don't die before next week Sir Paul).

Between the distracted drivers and the distracted walkers we should all be dead by around 2018.

I hate paying for the pre-season games more than the actual pre-season games. Please drop two so I only have to pay for one pre-season game. C'mon NFL, I said please.

Pass don't punt, stay in the playoff hunt. What were you thinking? :-)

Thank god there's no bunt in football.

1. My old neighbor worked for the NFL and the Bills In Toronto series. At one point they were thinking $200 lowest seat price, steak and lobster in the suites, easy money, easy sellouts. On the eve of the first game he walked over with a fistful of premium tickets that he couldn't give away and asked me how many more seats I could fill. Disaster on the ticket selling front. 2. Game wise the stadium had no atmosphere. Dead. The people who showed up were really just NFL fans who came along for the sake of being there. Handful of Bills fans, more 'away' fans. Disaster on the atmosphere front. 3. Bills wise it showed that the NFL that Toronto fans weren't the suckers the NFL thought they'd be. The Bills remained in Buffalo and have a new Buffalo biased owner. I only really care about #3. So the Bills in Toronto was a massive success.

I love them enough to make the trek from Burlington, Ont most home games for the last 13 years, but not enough to get a tattoo or buy an official jersey. If the stadium moves and tailgating is banned I'm not sure the hassle of getting to Buffalo would outweigh the delight of watching the Bills live. We've all watched some pretty craptacular football games over the no playoff streak and I'm not sure Bills football alone would have kept me coming back.* * But I'll always watch them on TV

Me too, maybe a little less.

I see this phrase pop up often 'The Pegula's are very smart owners' usually used when trying to back up an argument that requires a belief that the owners will do the 'right' thing in relation to a potential problem. Question: I don't watch much of the NHL, when I do it's not the Sabres. Are the Pegula's particularily smart owners? or do we just give them that because they saved the Bills in Buffalo?

Part of the emotional fan game is having evil enemies who battle the hometown heros. Toms made one hell of a villain out of himself. No doubt a top 3 QB and one of the best villains in my time.

I hadn't thought about my own response to this question when I thought it up. My actions would relate to Tom's actions. If the game ends and Tom applauded the fans I would return the gesture. It happens regularly in soccer games around the world, even in MLS. Players applaud the fans after some games, the greats almost always applaud the fans at home when they retire (often on the road too - depending on the stadium). I'd like to see more of it in the NFL. Fred Jackson's the only guy I can think of recently who did something similar (a game where he brought his son out after the game).

Take a break from the Buffalo (the animal) and simulate the NY Rangers jersey (I'm not a Rangers fan, I just love this jersey).

Do we still have Enemkpali?

I'll call my shot. I won't be a Bills season ticket holder by the time a new stadium is built. I'll be 49 this year and I don't see me making the trek past 60. Having a hard time picturing everything coming together in 11 - 12 years. Location, funding, blueprints, workforce, time to build, I'd be shocked if it's ready in my season ticket lifetime. Beyond that I like Orchard Park as the location, it feels like home. Keep it there and get some kind of legacy agreement from the NFL to allow traditional tailgating forever and ever.
