  1. Anything but the god-awful road unis from the Bledsoe era or the color rush BS.
  2. This. I'll throw in that I watched it with my two sons who were born a decade later and knew about the four straight but had no real context until they saw Four Falls.
  3. I bought this extension for a garden hose to clean my gutters. Saw it on one of those cheesy TV commercials. After a few weeks it didn't arrive in the mail so I called up and they said they'd send me another. It ended up being a flimsy aluminum extension and when I turned on the water it was flailing around completely out of control spraying water everywhere but the gutters and soaking me in the process. I felt like a putz. A few days later the replacement came in the mail and I laughed again at my stupidity.
  4. Read the thread tile, nothing else, easy answer: F**k yeah!
  5. Cool that you saw casual Pats fans in misery, I'd like that too. But give me the pain of the hard core fan, as Bills fans we deserve that. I have a college friend from the Boston area who is a hard core Pats fan. I give him credit for two things: he was on Brady's greatness early and he has fueled my hatred (jealousy?) of Brady/Pats ever since. I remember calling/torturing him from a vacation in Steamboat Springs after the first SB loss to Eli. I was brutal to him, it was enjoyable. In fairness he has not been a d*ck to me about the Bills because all he cares about is Brady/Pats. So maybe I'm the d*ck here. Oh well. Go Bills!
  6. Not what I'd expect from that fan base. Down 8 with 10 minutes left and they gave up on the almighty Brady and Belichick? Can't believe that's representative of the core fan base who I'd expect to be just the opposite with a sense of "winning" entitlement and expectation. Either way, eff em, lets start the season with a win in Sunday! Go Bills!
  7. I don't think it's contradictory if you think the previous regime did a poor job drafting. Like it or not, we are hitched to McBeane until they prove or disprove themselves...and yes we're back on the next 3 year plan if they fail. What's the alternative to hiring guys and giving them a chance to succeed?
  8. I think this sums up where we've been and hopefully where we aren't going.
  9. Big Yankee hater here But I agree, it's strategy. And if you think the guy on second (or the guy with the Apple watch) is stealing signs, show him the curve sign and bring it high and tight to the batter. Problem solved.
  10. You can't make this stuff up. In their first home game following the hurricane, the opposing pitcher is Matt Harvey.
  11. Saw this late this afternoon and thought it was worth sharing. Hopefully links aren't behind a fee wall. "Hundreds attend East Northport funeral for veteran they didn't know" http://www.newsday.com/long-island/suffolk/hundreds-attend-east-northport-funeral-for-veteran-they-didn-t-know-1.14105110 http://longisland.news12.com/story/36272528/hundreds-turn-out-for-korean-war-vets-funeral-in-east-northport
  12. I wouldn't qualify this as mundane, but maybe unexpected and poignant: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11cKI6KZFFU
  13. I'm not dialed in like most, but are there Panthers on the bubble of interest? Pretty common for coaches/GMs to bring in guys they know.
  14. I always thought this was pretty crazy. Rebuilt their house after Rita and it survived Ike: http://www.cnn.com/2008/US/09/18/ike.last.house.standing/
  15. Hey hey hey! Did anyone mention What's Happening? Not even close to one of the best (I'm sticking with Barney Miller) but worth mentioning for the opening notes:
  16. Where's my mule? Where's my 40 acre?
  17. I was in a room full of Giants fans. As I recall there was a commercial break before the kick that was sheer torture....little did I know that would be fleeting compared to what lied ahead.
  18. Sweet. Not so much....give me the SNL parody instead.
