Pretty basic in my house. Pre-game we'll have chili and during the game: Cheeseburger Sliders Pigs in Blankets Chicken Wings (hot sauce) Mozzarella Sticks Chips and salsa Is the Thai chili sauce homemade or store bought? Could you share the recipe or brand? Love Thai chili but I've only ever had it out.

I've said it before and it's no great revelation, but it sucks that we can't celebrate OJ's greatness. He is arguably the greatest Bills player ever. I'd say it's either Juice or Bruce.

Short answer is OJ.

This makes me wanna revisit Love, Electric and Sonic Temple.

These are the people who win the office football pools.

Love that song but I have to admit that I never listened to it in the context of a guitar solo, just a great song to me even though the solo was there all along. On one hand I think that's the mark of a great solo, it just blends into the song perfectly. But I would expect it to be played note for note anytime I hear it. Kind of like the Comfortably Numb solo...which is an al-ltime great On the other hand, I love guitarists that improvise live. Far more impressive to me but can be hit and miss.

If the RaIders had a guy known as the Deflator they would have laughed in everyones face and said hell yeah he's the Deflator. The Patriots try to pass it off as a guy on a weight loss program. And their fans believe it.

I've probably made this point in the past, but apart from the obvious, one thing I hate about the Pats is their self-rightousness. Back in the day everyone knew what the Raiders "Just Win Baby" motto meant. Cheap hits? Penalties? Cheat? He hate me? Just win baby. There were no pretentions whatsoever. The Patriots aren't that different than the Raiders, they just don't own it.

If your schtick is to respond in Foghorn Leghorn quotes I am fully on board and hopeful for the future.

Have to admit I needed a double take on that one, but don't kill me when I repeat it a year or so from now.

Armored Saint? Nice. I was in on them from the EP. I wonder if that's still out there. John Bush also breathed life into Anthrax for a while.

Off topic: One of my favorite quotes came from Tommy Lasorda when asked about contract negotiations with Fernando Valenzuela: "He wants Texas back" On topic: today I learned that I never pass up an opportunity to share my favorite quotes.

I saw that too but was too lazy busy to post. https://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/airplane-mode/emotional-support-peacock-denied-flight-united-airlines-n842971 Looked like someone trying to get their 15 minutes of fame: “We explained this to the customer on three separate occasions before they arrived at the airport,”

The latest from Sandy (it may be behind a fee wall): https://www.newsday.com/sports/baseball/mets/sandy-alderson-mets-1.16477763 Article says he recoiled to a direct question about Moustakos. But I was OK with his answer: “Well, it’s possible what he’ll end up doing is signing a one-year contract,” Alderson said of Moustakas. “I don’t know. " Big thumbs down from me on this statement: Alderson was quick to point out that the Mets have done more this winter than “probably 80 percent” of the teams, I'm more concerned with whether we've done enough to be legit playoff contenders. I feel like we haven't.

The scene in Daddys Home 2 with Will Ferrell and John Lithgow kissing was unbelievably cringe-worthy. Set the tone for the rest of the movie IMO. Back to Brady: is it too much to ask that his kid has the flu and passes it along with the effects hitting Tommy Boy full force in 72 hours?

Todays Mets headline: Mets Trade Smoker for SBU Alum Zamora I hope they hold onto the drinkers.

My take is that Reimer deserves all the flak he's getting for his comments. There's no excuse and unless I'm mistaken the station already suspended him and/or pulled hm from the air. I thought Bradys last statement was admirable. Nobody would have thought less of him if he said nothing. But in all honestly I am about to choke on my own bile after complementing Brady so I'm done here

I find it very hard to say anything good about Brady. I'm more inclined to look for the bad and embellish it. But I have to admit that he handled this about as well as anyone could be expected. He went on the air, made his point without theatrics while at the same time putting the radio station on notice. And then this morning I see this with regard to firing Reimer. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2018/01/29/brady-i-hope-radio-host-isnt-fired-for-comment-about-my-daughter/ "I think we all have careers and we all make mistakes. I would hate to have someone have to change their life over something like that.” Let's get this behind us so I can go back to hating him.

It's not every day someone says something that results in this board universally backing TB.

I seriously only heard this song one time before tonight. Probably 10+ years ago listening to Sirius with a good friend driving to Vermont on a ski trip. The song itself is nothing special and yet it's great (are you still checking in The Dean?) . There's a line about a $5 cup of coffee at Starbucks that always stuck with me and it brought a smile to my face 2nite. Thought it was worth sharing. Warning: NSFW

We had a kid in the local high school do the railroad track video last spring. My understanding is that he had previously been a fire alarm puller. Sad.

I have to admit that I never gave Van Hagar a chance. I wasn't happy either. The Red Rocker replacing David Lee Roth? C'mon man! And everything I heard on the radio reinforced my prejudice. But I do like the pizza joint analogy. No doubt I was looking for the same product.

Clemens and Bonds were undeniably amongst the greatest players of their era and no-doubt first ballot Hall of Famers based on their accomplishments. It's a sad fact of the steroid era that they were both tied to PED's. My guess is they'll get in posthumously thru a veterans committee vote or some special steroid exception. I would be OK with either. But an asterisk is warranted. What bothers me more is a guy like Piazza who was a clear first ballot HOFer who suffered from suspicion. As far as I am aware, none of the voters ever had the stones to write a column about their suspicions but they had no trouble voting against him anonymously. My personal opinion is that every player in that era should be under suspicion. Guilt by association. And this includes "untouchables" like Jeter ad Mariano. They were all part of the same players association united front.

They sucked after High 'N Dry. But I did get a chuckle recently when a board member thought that "Pour Some Sugar On Me" was "Awesome Sugar Honey" and questioned what it meant. Either way that song was probably the peak of their sucktitude. I do give them props for sticking with the drummer after the horrific accident. Happened at the height of their popularity and they all made it work.

I'm late on the draw here, but Tre'Davious made a comment about the whole hood wanting Gronk. Any connection between Barry Church and Tre'Davious? Probably not, but it just occurred to me so I figured I'd throw it out there.
