  1. You have my condolences and I can relate. I had to put my beautiful brindle, sensitive, Grey Hound down after the Christmas blizzard. He lost control over his hind end. In December I had to put doggie diapers on him, and carry him around the house. After I dug out from the blizzard I carried him into the Emergency veterinarian. The Doc suspected cancer and the decision was made to put him down, for quality of life reasons. He was only 11. In addition to grieving, I second guess my handling of the whole affair. Did I handle the early phase of his illness right (I did take him in Thanksgiving)?Should I have put him down, or should I have sought a second opinion... did I do it right? I think about it all the time.
  2. Legends will work from a clean sheet of paper. Those people you know could apply for jobs there.
  3. If you think you're old at 45... you've got a long life of unhappiness ahead of you.
  4. Just for kicks, I looked up the Google Search trends for Bills Mafia, and got this: The six spikes on the right are: Jan 2018, Sep 2019, Jan 2021, Jan 2022, Sep 2022, Jan 2023. So people search Bills Mafia in Sept and Jan, starting in earnest in 2018. Makes sense to me. The mini-spikes on the left are interesting. Sep 2005 (9 searches) and Apr 2006 (12 searches). So someone was curious about the term back then.
  5. That's good feedback. Thanks. I needed an update since the last time I Metro-bussed to "Rich" Stadium was as a teen in 1978 for a Fleetwood Mac / Foreigner / Pablo Cruise / Bob Welch concert. It was outstanding.
  6. Retired military here, so I have lived in about six places since my first TBD exposure. IIRC, my first exposure was in the Summer of 1996, with an old 80386 Compaq computer, from a dingy hotel room on Route 301 in Bowie MD. Dial-up 9600 baud modem. TBD was very new then and the forum software has advanced exponentially. I have lost prior usernames here at TSW. In the meantime, I added 3 more children, bought/sold countless cars, bought/sold 3 houses, and got divorced from my starter wife. Could you imagine if TBD/TSW were around during the Kelly/Levy Superbowl runs? That would have been epic.
  7. I can't vouch for the experience since I have never done it, but Metrobus has routes to Highmark. https://metro.nfta.com/schedules/game-day-express I'm considering trying it.
  8. Bummer. 1 PM Sunday are my favorite games. Prime-time games don't float my boat.
  9. I'm thinking of trimming down my possessions by selling them on eBay. I have quite a few "New In Box" items. A nice stereo and speakers, a Boat GPS navigator, and some other stuff. How do you ship? I'm worried about getting scammed. Can you recommend a book or website where I can learn more about being an eBay seller?
  10. It's all just one season record. What makes week 14 more meaningful than week 1 or 2?
  11. A well designed survey is a work of art. Your first four questions would pass the test. In this case your #5 and #6 choices: ...poison the well. Because a respondent could easily reply to one of your choices #1 through #4 but also have feelings about #5 and #6. Sorry. I'm being a pedantic prick for a fan board. I used to work surveys for a living, so I was triggered.
  12. Send him to Dawson Knox's "hands coach" and that problem is fixed.
  13. He's from Jamestown. That has to carry some neurological weight.
  14. I just watched him on Bills Live. Very well spoken. If he plays as well as he handles a presser, we're in for a wild ride.
  15. Heh. Judging by the poll numbers, OP's opinion is very unpopular.
  16. I have to wake at 5 to be at work at 6. So I won't be awake past 9, draft or not. This sexagenarian needs his 8 hours of sleep.
  17. Nice use of Google Drive, and it keeps SDS out of hot water should the files be proprietary. I only scratch the surface of what Google Workspace can do.
  18. Aaron Rodgers Retires From Professional Football To Play With The Jets
  19. Odds on how long it will take to disappear this post.... 5 minutes.
  20. I guess you avoid Millenium Park. https://www.google.com/search?q=chicago+millennium+park+teens
  21. Youtube suspended my free account. I must have offended a snowflake with one of my comments. What do you think are the odds I'd be able to open a Sunday Ticket subscription, despite my suspended status? I'm guessing it's ll about the money and they'd let me pay for Sunday Ticket. EDIT UPDATE: I just tried to sign up and got all the way through to entering my CC number. So Youtube is all about the dineros, even if you were suspended.
