  1. Oh, he’s drunk. How would he know where we’re going?
  2. You've got my attention. Continue.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. @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.
  7. 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:
  8. Disagree. If you're going to make tuna noodle casserole, DON'T make TUNA noodle casserole. Just let me know and we'll get take out.
  9. I 110% refer to Tyrone Taylor as Tyrod at all times. Good times.
  10. 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:
  11. Just watched ESPN's E60: Southpaw - The Life & Legacy of Jim Abbott One of the great sports stories of my lifetime. Saw him pitch once and it was mind boggling.
  12. TY. John Elway was a perennial loser in too many peoples eyes until he was a HOFer due to SB wins. He was a better player before the SBs imo. Elway got his days in the sun, I expect Josh will too (as a Bill), but no guarantees. I've been enjoying the ride since we drafted Josh and my boys asked me if we got the right QB. My answer was simple: I have no effin idea but we got one of the top 4 and that's who we're riding with. Good times.
  13. Back to the 80's, this time with a 'hair band'. Not gonna lie, bands like Motley Crue that started out edgy got me into the hair bands. Went to L.A. for a wedding when the hair bands were in full swing and I recorded a few hours of local radio cuz we weren't getting that on the east coast. This song was a product of that and I still like it. My attitude about hair bands was/is that I wished everyone considered this pop. Good times.
  14. I have never set foot inside a Costco.
  15. This stretch has been brutal, impossible to sugar coat it. But I still expect them to make the playoffs. And I'll hold out hope that when they do they'll be on a heater. But realistically I just don't think their starting pitching is playoff calibre. I could change my mind if Senga and Manaea regain form and figure out how to get to the 7th inning and if Peterson continues to impress and if they get some help from one of the minor league starters.
  16. Growing up I think I heard this as one ton of mellow. I also think I grew up with a different version. Either way, good times!
  17. Pretty sure the Vinny Testaverde 'TD' against the Seahawks (see below starting around 2:50) along with the Bills/Pats debacle in 1998 were main factors in introducing instant replay reviews. Replay reviews are a necessary evil imo, I just wish (and it won't ever happen) that we could avoid the Zapruder-like reviews that take way too long and leave nobody convinced that they got the call right anyway. Cheering or agonizing over a plays outcome well after it happened diminishes the product for me - and that's for all sports.
  18. What Devin Williams is going through this year reminds me of what Edwin Diaz went through with the Mets. Diaz looked like a lost cause but managed to rebound. Based on his history - which is much better than Edwin's pre-Mets history - I'm guessing Williams will bounce back too, but it seems unlikely to happen this year.
  19. Does your email client have a password recovery option where you just need to answer some security questions to reset your password?
  20. The ska/pop/rock/punk of the 90's produced some great music
