Nice memory - my mind went straight to the Bama-lover but I spaced on the name.

Looks like the call to squib may not have made it to Bass

I think baseball is declining in popularity compared to other sports. As my kids progressed through Little League I saw the number of teams in the league decline - even to the point that our league merged with a league from a neighboring community. Part of that can be attributed to declining enrollment in the school districts, but I think kids are gravitating to other sports like soccer and lacrosse. It amazes me how many kids play sports year round. When I grew up each season had it's sport. Nowadays a lot of kids focus on one sport. Even the baseball kids play year round (mine never did). The result is they end up going to travel teams and even when they stick with little league (more at bats than they get with travel) they miss games due to conflicts with travel and there's a wider disparity in talent which can discourages the lesser player.

Regional place names that aren't spelled the way the locals say them.

Newark, DE is the one I thought of. Any thread on city pronunciations is incomplete without Mianus, CT. I honestly don't know the correct pronunciation - but I know how I pronounce it every time I pass through (pun intended). -
And none of those teams won a Super Bowl. As much as I want the Bills to score a TD on every possession of every game it can't come at the expense of a bad D.

So we're adding break and enter to the assault charge?

@Gugny @Another Fan Nearly a month later and the regular season won't start on time. So much for my optimism. I was listening to WFAN yesterday and they were trying to organize a celebrity softball game on what should be MLB opening day. Proceeds would go to stadium workers who will miss out on their paycheck. Probably a lot of hot air to keep listeners tuned in but a great sentiment nonetheless. It hit home harder when I walked into ***** Sporting Goods today looking for a birthday gift for my son and came across an Alonso jersey of questionable quality priced at $130.

I'd rather punch him in the nuts.

And the reason every regular season game doesn't go to OT is because teams make defensive stands/plays, no? I suppose I'm in the minority but I'm fine with the current OT system in the NFL, it just doesn't bother me like it does others.

If we're so sure that whoever won the coin toss (KC or Buffalo) would score on the first possession it follows to me that the assumption is the other team would score on the next possession - which puts us back to the winner of the coin toss has the advantage. Change isn't inherently bad - but it's not inherently good either.

Apathy has rained on me Now I'm feeling like a soggy dream So close to drowning but I don't mind I'll live inside this mental cave Throw my emotions in the grave Hell, who needs them anyway I'm not growing up I'm just burning out And I stepped in line To walk amongst the dead

I'm not a fallen angel, I just fell behind I'm out of luck and I'm out of time If you don't wanna love me, let me go I'm runnin' for the last train I'm runnin' for the last train home

Why pick one band over the other when you can have them both? That's one helluva show. Predates my concert-going by a few years (BOC headlined the first show I went to).

1. You've been a fan since Well, the 70's - somewhere around '73 2. Your first Bills memory OJ 3. One of your favorite Bills memories 2017 season - Took the family to Broncos/Bills game- if you forgot the outcome check my avatar - the Kyle Williams TD - and of course watching the drought end on the Tyler Boyd catch 4. Your favorite player of all time and your favorite player currently... All time: Bruce. Current: Josh is the easy pick, but Tre and his goalie academy are an honorable mention. In general it's a very likable group of players since McD took over. 5. Some of you guys have some awesome forum names. What does your forum name say about you? I have no imagination.

Won't you take me to the To the gypsy caravan? (To the gypsy caravan) We can live together Where the ocean meets the sand

Rush has an intensely loyal following. The die hard's stuck with them in spite of the changes to their music over the years. Count me in the camp that started losing interest with Subdivisions. They had some moments with later albums but none of them stuck with me like their pre-Moving Pictures output. As for BOC vs. Rush - I don't feel the need to choose, they both made great music. It's like steak or lobster. I like both but would grow tired of either if that's all I had every day.
