  1. The Bob Seger System played an incredible show in Dec 68. It was at a place called Psycus (IIRC), an old theater on Seneca Street (probably). A power trio with Bob playing guitar. Pep Perrine had some weird tubular drum amplifiers (or whatever). I was disappointed when they augmented the System with organ and another guitarist. Did anyone here see that amazing show?
  2. I recorded the game, but could only stomach a few series. Then I just deleted it. And then I decided I would not watch the Super Bowl if the Cheaters are in it. It will be hard to actually skip it, but I hope to do that.
  3. Wasn't this place called Gilligan's before it was Uncle Sam's? I saw Golden Earring and Cat Mother & All Night Newsboys there. I think it was still Gilligan's for those shows.
  4. And I still don't know how friggin' Truman beat Dewey!
  5. I think they should keep the name Redskins, but change the logo to a Virginia Redskin Peanut. Then they might only insult those who farm the other kinds of peanuts.
  6. And now, with Eric Lee kicking our ass, the Pats* are beating us with our own players! It's a shame our staff did not realize Eric Lee's talent, or could not develop/utilize it.
  7. What Denver pick? We have KC's 1st round pick.
  8. This is exactly the image that came to my mind.
  9. God bless Logan and his family. May they find peace and recover from this tragic event. My daughter recently lost a baby who had lived a few days. Sometimes It is hard to figure what God is thinking.
  10. I saw that movie once..... ONCE.
  11. There was a recent article (sorry, forgot where it was, perhaps WGR or WKBW sites) which stated Streater could rejoin the Bills around Thanksgiving time frame. It was talking about when exactly that 6 week period begins. It was not 6 weeks from his release date, though, as we would normally expect.
  12. The roster says 75 http://www.buffalobills.com/team/roster.html
  13. Good idea! Beth's voice is painful to listen to, and Rex adds very little to the broadcast. Rex ought to be sued for grand larceny (stealing $$$ from Bills).
  14. If you have made it as far north as the Charlotte area, there is a Bills bar at Exit 25 of I-77: Taste of Buffalo Pizzeria 9610 Sherrill Estates Rd Huntersville, NC 28078 This is a few miles North of Charlotte.
  15. Is the front office just yanking Rodak's chain with this one? Feeding him a bogus name just to see if he will post it?
  16. If Dez were 6'1, he'd be working on his next career by now. Being 6'4' has kept him working for a couple years IMO.
  17. Sorry, Kirby. I was just having some fun with this off-topic discussion.
  18. That leaves South Carolina, Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas, Georgia, Alabama and Louisiana as "the south." Oops, you forgot to include South Dakota in the list.
  19. Sorry, Kirby, but that is a pretty goofy assessment of "What is the South". Based on SEC or not? Duh. I have been living in NC for 2+ years now, and it is definitely "the South" despite all the Northern transplants due to jobs here. Missouri is "the South without the hospitality".
  20. Thanks for that. I will have to check in at game time to make sure it is on the channel listed. James Wilder Jr. looked good for the Argos until he fumbled late in the game. After looking great against Hamilton, the Argos looked pretty average against the BC Lions.
  21. I had recorded the scheduled Winnipeg @ Sask game - big Canada Day celebration and brand new Sask stadium, but when I played it, there was a college baseball home run derby. What a ripoff from ESPN. Fargin' bastage ESPN.
  22. Ladler is now with Edmonton, and he did pretty well this past weekend. Our old friend Justin Rogers is with Hamilton, and got toasted by the great WR SJ Green, who had 125 yards at one point for Toronto.
  23. TJ Graham - wow, he is still working at his craft. Here is a link to all CFL rosters: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_current_CFL_team_rosters Tonight's Calgary @ Ottawa game features a few ex-Bills (mostly just training camp guys) Ottawa 76 Landon Cohen DL 28 Javier Arenas DB Calgary: 82 Jarrett Boykin WR
  24. I'm kind of torn between Hamilton and Toronto, and root for those guys unless they are playing each other. Quite seriously, I think they are named for the red and black plaid shirts traditionally worn by lumberjacks. When Ottawa had the Roughriders, they were named for the logging rough riders (riding logs down rivers?), whereas the Saskatchewan Rough Riders were named for the ranching rough riders (riding horses, etc.). Fun stuff.
  25. Big slate of games this weekend: Thu 7:30 (207) SASK @ MTL Fri 7:30 (207) Calgary @ Ottawa Sat 10 (209) EDM @ BC Sun 4 (209) Ham @ TO These are DirecTV channels 207 and 209. I am looking forward to seeing some football, even with only 3 downs.
