    To who and for what?

    Any other CB3, or a Juggs machine and a case of athletic tape.  Your opinions may vary.

    Josh Allen can snap it to himself but it might be Alec Anderson.

    Ah...hearkens back to many a game of street football from my yute.

    Your idea is asinine and illegal, unless you're really Bill Belichick.  Then it's sheer genius.

    Hailee can’t take Josh anywhere!

     

    In all seriousness, this would have never happened to Tom Brady in his prime.  Tom always made sure to keep his waistline and legs in check, no matter how skinny the jeans.

    Nah.  It was that 'Tommy Two Ball Compound' that his personal trainer Alex Guerrero had Brady swallowing. 🤨

    Why not keep it simple and ban DBs from Buffalo rather than getting caught up in the details?

    BRING BACK 'WRECKS' RYAN!

    The defensive linemen can drop back for coverage. 😁

    Seawaymax is 740x78.

     

    @ 1,000 feet long x 75' wide, the Laker Stewart J. Cort was built in Mississippi... 1972. How did it get into the Great Lakes?😉

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Answer:

     

    "Stewart J. Cort was the first 1000-footer to be put into service on the lakes and also the only one built in the traditional wheelhouse-forward Great Lakes style (although all accommodations are forward, and the stern deckhouse is occupied by self unloading equipment and the engines). Stewart J. Cort started life in Mississippi as Hull 1173, consisting of only the bow and stern sections (and appropriately nicknamed "Stubby"). From there, she was sailed to Erie, Pennsylvania, where she was cut in half and an additional 800+ feet of hull were added."

    1. Quite aware of this.  Do a little more searching next time. 🤨

    2.  Seaway Max were increased from the original 730' X 75' specifications to 740' X 78' dimensions when some design engineer realized that they had 80' of width available in locks.  This has occasionally resulted in ships being operated in late season to be stuck in the ice in locks.  You only have one foot available on each side of the beam.  As some lakers received new forebodies in the 90s, these design engineers were trying to maximize cargo loads.  Ask those who actually sailed late season what they think of it.

  6. In deference to the retirement of Bill Belichick from coaching and GM duties, Commissioner Goodell has announced a suspension of the conditional draft pick program.  "An experiment" says he.

    Fatukasi was a big up and coming type when he signed with the Jags prior to 2022 but didn't live up to the expectations. He's only 295 so probably only a 3 Tech.

    295?!  That's two Wendy's Grand Slams with bacon, and a family size fries.

    That’s Fred Gwynne (Herman Munster) doing the voice over for that Genesee Beer commercial.

    I always thought it sounded like him, your post is the first confirmation that I have seen.

  9. #42, Pyrex dishes.  If anything like aged Corelle, a dropped piece that breaks immediately turns into 10,000 razor sharp shards.  The Federal Trade Commission needs to investigate them, and do a search of all thrift stores for old pieces. 🤨

     

    #21, Awesome commercials.  Actually, the best were regional for Genessee Beer that mixed old film footage with snappy and inane dialogue.

    I think Genessee fired their advertising agencies on a monthly basis.  Genessee Brewery wouldn't even admit that this commercial was made.  Genessee commercials were 'like a box of chocolates."

    Not as lame an article as I thought it would be.

    There needs to be a WNY / Southern Ontario version.  Somewhere in there will be Goldie and Mike's begathons for Channel 17.

    I had a turkey vulture on top of my gazebo on my back porch facing the 2.5 wooded acre lot behind house.

    No dead animals in my yard that I know of so I am assuming it was looking for a flat raised spot to rest while looking/scenting for food in wooded acre lot.
