  1. We don't outsource any of those three. For the most part, I like clearing snow. Depending on the accumulation I'll either shovel or use the snow blower. And if it's snow blower worthy I'll take care of neighbors who need help. Had an elderly couple I took care of for years. Cleaning the house is probably an 80/20 proposition between wifey and me. She'd probably call it 90/10 or worse but the sad fact is that whatever the number is it trends in the wrong direction with each passing year. I may be the only jackass on my block that doesn't have a lawn service AND doesn't have a ride-on mower. Fortunately I have sons and that transition has begun.
  2. Pretty sure that the numbers showed that as making long FG's became commonplace the coin toss winner became more relevant. Still doesn't sway me. Play defense or win in regulation if your defense sucks.
  3. Unless I'm mistaken, on the overtime drive the Chiefs D failed to stop the Pats at least 3 times on 3rd and around 10. I prefer the straight-up sudden death OT rules of the past.
  4. JMO, but as a Bills fan you should hate them for the tyrannical reign of terror they've imposed upon the Bills since Mo Lewis sent Drew Bledsoe to the hospital.
  5. I'll watch the Super Bowl this year the same way I watched the Super Bowl last year and Pats/Chiefs today. Rooting fiercely for a team I could care less about but expecting the worse. I hope it's more like last year than today....and I win some money.
  6. Neutral zone infraction on a guy on the edge. It's almost always on the interior.
  7. Well then maybe it's not the overtime rules that need to change.
  8. Thanks for clarifying. Based on your profile name and pic I figured you were hard core and the comments didn't square up.
  9. Just wondering where you are on the football fan spectrum. Have you been watching for months? years? decades? What enticed you originally? Have you lost interest since? If so, what changed for you?
  10. No doubt. I won't be able to see Saints/Rams tomorrow. I can't remember the last time I didn't watch a conference championship game. It might have been Bills/Bengals 1988 when I was on the road due to a death in the family and listened on the radio.
  11. That one is easy. No. I will never root for the BB Patriots. I'll take my lumps if I have to.
  12. Echoing KD's good wishes to you TroutDog.
  13. Always good news whether it's Jim Kelly or someone else. Two days ago we learned that the mother of our sons friend underwent a double mastectomy recently. Up next is chemo. Cancer is insidious.
  14. Nice points. I didn't know that 78 never lead the league in sacks. Juice was incredible and just a fun guy to watch run. Fast, elusive, powerful. A major reason I'm an out of town Bills fan. But in this day and age when it's all about the QB if I can't pick a QB the next best thing is getting after the QB so I'd go with Bruce. Watching him terrorize Brady twice a year would have been sweet.
  15. Wade got his sense of humor from his dad. I've probably posted this before. Costas once asked Bum why he brought his wife on road trips. Bum's response? "Because she's too ugly to kiss goodbye". A few more Bum quotes here: https://247sports.com/Coach/Bum-Phillips-3616/Quotes/
  16. You lost me. Did beating a bad NFL team somehow diminish his win over Clemson with an inferior Pitt team? Are you suggesting that Pitt team was on a par with a bad NFL team?
  17. Has anyone mentioned that Nathan Peterman beat eventual national champion Clemson when he was at Pitt?
  18. In the past it would've been softball in the summer and skiing in the winter, but I didn't play softball the past two summers and I only get out skiing a couple of times each year. These days my favorite is Wiffle Ball in the backyard.
  19. He's like a dandelion jack. You can cut him down and then he'll pop right back. Something tells me this will not end well for the J-E-T-S JETS! JETS! JETS! The team that spells....wtf?
  20. Are you talking about when Clemens beaned Piazza regular season? I didn't think that got much play outside NY. Until Clemens threw Piazza's sawed off bat at him in the WS months later. Regardless, if the charges against Wetteland have merit...repulsive..
