  1. As others have said the day before prep is the worst part.

     

    The prep I had involved drinking that God-awful MoviePrep. My approach was to mix with cold water and then just chug-a-lug it as quickly as possible so I limited the foul taste in my mouth. I've heard there are also pills you can take.

     

    When my wife did it she headed to the bathroom within minutes of drinking the prep, for me it took awhile - maybe a half hour or hour. In my case once it started I was in the bathroom for quite a long time. I set up my laptop ahead of time and watched a football game to 'pass' the time along with everything else.

     

  2. Michael Schenker "My Years With UFO" tonight. As a huge fan of UFO's Strangers in the Night live album the show was solid. A deeper cut I hadn't heard that they played heavier than the orig:

    Brutal.  Team doesn't even deserve to be in the playoffs if this keeps up.  

     

    The only positive note is McLean looks more and more like the real deal.

    Insane collapse. That’s all I can say right now.

     

    Actually … one more thing.  F*ck off to all the Yankee fans who wanted Soto to fail. 

     

    Which collapse? June (3-14), August (2-14) or September (4-10 so far)? During the August swoon I was still convinced we'd make the playoffs, not so much today. This team has all the hallmarks of a .500 team, which shouldn't be the case given the talent.

     

    Can't wait to see what happens tonight against deGrom.

    Winners come up big in clutch situations, whereas losers come up small in clutch situations.

     

    Lamar might be a good player, but when the chips are down, he always fails in the clutch. The media always coddles Lamar, but if you have eyes you can easily see who is the better player, who is the better QB, who is the MVP..........and that is Josh Freakin' Allen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

     

    Go Bills!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

     

    You lost me at the bolded.

    Saturday, September 6, 2025. Day 1 of my captivity. 
     

    They call him Boots. I call him the meanest furry rabbit I’ve ever had to deal with. Front paws the size of oven mitts. Eyes that pierce and drain courage from my own six foot body. Boots and three of his henchman rabbits grabbed hold of my arm when I bent down to pick up a flattened quarter. I was right near the portal (apparently) and Boots tugged my arm so fast I lost balance and slid into what appears to be an animal kingdom ruled by giant furry bastards that scurry about. My cell phone provides some light and Boots approaches. I can sense he is pissed off. He demands some of my carrots. I want some damn answers. I hand him one. Quid pro quo. 
     

    “Why am I here?” I ask. 

    Boots consults with his sidekicks while gnawing on a baby carrot. He replies “Squeak…skit skit skit, chi chi” 

     

    Da fuq? Then I remember. I downloaded a rabbit translation app on my ride down. I open WabbitWords app and type in his statement hoping my spelling is correct. Boots’ was basically telling me I will stay in their custody until I return their deity. They believe I stole their God.  I ask “Da fuq?? Who is your God and I’ll see what I can do”

     

    Boots lays out his oversized paw and glances at my carrots. I place one baby carrot into his pad. It looks like a Tic Tac held in this gigantic beast’s hand. Boots swallows the veggie whole and licks his balls (a sign of authority). He screams “Skeeeet Sbiiii Furrrrrpppp”. 
     

    I plug this response into my WabbitWords app. The translation makes me shake all over. Please God, no. It meant “Bring Us FIGSTER!”

     

    (Collapsed from exhaustion)

     

    You need to find a way to monetize your....whatever. This is gold Jerry, gold!

  6.  

    Manager of the 1986 Mets. He set the tone and expectations for that great season. 

     

     I remember him as a solid 2B for the Orioles and having an outlier 43 HR season for the Braves. In the same year Darrell Evans (41) and Henry Aaron (40) also hit 40. 

     

    Fond memories. RIP.

    She smoked someone I've never heard of in straight sets 6-1, 6-2.   Time to start paying attention again.  

     

    Always fun in the post game interview on court when they ask her about the Bills and upcoming season, and there are ton of Bill fans in the crowd cheering.  She says Bills fans are everywhere she goes around the world and are huge supporters.

     

    TY.

     

    Just yesterday i mentioned to my son that I hadn't heard anything about Jessica Pegula and the US Open. File my interest under I hope she excels but will spend no time keeping track until it's in front of me through TBD or the national media.

    File this under admire instead of love: Lamar Jackson

     

    I was skeptical early on that he was anything more than just a (very impressive) running QB and I was wrong. But the real admiration came after we beat him in the playoffs last year. The juxtaposition of how he manned up on the post game handshake vs. how he let his emotions out in the locker room resonated with me. I'll root for the guy when it doesn't affect the Bills.

    Here he takes some vox on

     

     

    RIP in Peace and Tranquility.

     

     

     

     

    I never fully appreciated Mastodon until I saw them live. Saw them open for Judas Priest at a small venue a few years ago. Pre-gaming with friends that don't get together often enough we walked in a few songs into the Mastodon set...and they were  @ss-kicking beyond expectations. We still talk about it. Good times.

     

    RIP.

  10. @4merper4mer you'll like this one. Volpe made two outs in the Yankees 9 run 3rd inning including striking out with the bases loaded to end the inning. And apparently the boos rained down on him. Can't be too many times in history a home team put up 9 and the inning ended with boos.

    Back to heavy metal, Check this tune out.

     

    I've given it my own name,

     

    I call it  "Milano inner fury"

     

    Go Bills!

     

     

    With all due respect the Milano clip is WAF.  A few years back I suggested combining some Milano hits with this song. Can't find the post, but this is the song his highlights should be set to:

    I still think of him a little whenever I hear Tyrone Taylor 😁

     

    I 110% refer to Tyrone Taylor as Tyrod at all times. Good times.

    Being positive I think the team really has something with Nolan.  I know it’s a bit early but hoping he’s a lifer as a Met.  

     

    Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too early on Nolan - but hope we don't give up on him and he becomes the second Nolan we gave up on that goes on to greatness.

     

    What's more interesting to me is that given Nolan's early success it looks like they may be prepping Sproat to pitch in as a reliever.

     

    @Gugny - completely off topic but I had a laugh this past weekend moving my son into Virginia Tech the past few days. Above the TV in the condo we rented was this:
