  1. Yup that OL was the demise and also the reason for a QB debate of 7 versus 11. The OL was on a decline at end of Marv years and nothing proper seemed to be done about it.
  2. Your title of post and the info inside didnt even match. What you seem to be proposing is a trade of Travis to Eagles for a lineman or 2nd round pick. I like those options and alot of it hinges on ability to keep Jonas.
  3. Maybe he was trying to cheat :-) and find Andy Reids playcard?
  4. brother had something similar happen on GHog day he had to reinstall IE to get it working but at least could boot in safe mode.
  5. I live in Raleigh NC area and the raw meat brand available here is NuDimensions. We started as part of a cancer treatment regiment but have kept our other dog on it as well. They have raw turkey, chicken, duck and rabbit. They also have a veggie mix that use sparringly to add some carbs to the diet. Suggest before you do such a feeding program that you discuss with the Vet. raw meat needs to be handle carefully and can carry ecoli. Key is birds/rabbits arent feed steroids so ecoli isnt as bad as with steroid raised birds. The benefits are reduced stool that disentgrates in a day of sun basically just residual of the crushed bone.
  6. There ya go again gettings all the boyz immaginations at full attention
  7. Can you please explain how JP cost us a 1st, 2nd and fifth?
  8. Man this is starting to sound real good. The boys imaginations are now going wild thinking about the nurse, #89 and the vibrating device
  9. Great Quote AD most folks dont consider this when they have a pet. We were doing this raw meat thing for one of ours when she developed cancer since bladder cancer in dogs is fed by carbs. We only used ground turkey from the grocery if we ran out and the store that carried was out. The raw meat includes the bones and fat and is actually very good for cleaner teeth and breath. Plus reduced stool is great for cleanup since it pretty much disentegrates after a day in the sun.
  10. Is dog shedding more since you started using Advantix? Reason I ask is this irritated the skin of one of our dogs so much we had to back to just plain tick stuff. One other thing I do instead of treating the dog is to treat the yard for ticks/fleas. Treating the area they are in seems to work as long as you have a nice backyard area to treat. I have beagles and I rarely use tick/flea repellent on them along with monthly baths using a little Avaon skin so soft in the final rinse. As others have said if the dog is a longer hair the shedding is more noticeable than say a short haired dog like a beagle, and a good thing for them even if they dont shed is proper brushing and grooming plus dont forget the teeth, Milkbones and the like dont help that much against plaque a weekly brushing is the best thing to do. BTW DO NOT USE HUMAN toothpaste you need something specific for dogs and should get an annual cleaning ( most vets offer discounts for cleaning during feb since it is national dental month)

  12. Couldnt agree more. Yes I hate the Pats but man do they have the team concept and this is why they win.
  13. Maybe a bomb will fall on heinz field and steelers and pats both go away
  14. Raleigh, NC 1 inch on wed and forced major gridlock, folks spent 11 hours or more in cars stuck in traffic. Can a car really run for 11 hours without running out of gas even if you are just idling all the time? Today a thin sheet of ice and many more accidents again.
  15. Simple fix to SS is to just apply tax to all freakin income we make. Why cut of at 84K? Yes I like the extra income but why shouldnt it be on all my income???
  16. Always a Bills fan from early 60's however I did root for charges in late 60's as well I had a chargers football helmet ( not sure why I got it) but really liked them along with the Bills.

  19. seems its a different segment for each two hours. Right now I am watching about Bonny basketball the national Championship attempt without the Big Cat. Man talked about choed up. I remember it was like yesterday when we were watching when Bob broke that leg and we were all in tears. I remember sending Bob a get well card from the family and getting back a personal thank you card with Autographs inside.
  20. Amazing she wouldnt let him join the fun sounds like they really werent into sharing in their marriage
  21. Maybe closing shop wasnt such a bad idea. I have been watching Empire Remembers all week long. Nice to relive all those WNY memories of Bonnies, Bills, Sabres, Bisons, Niagara etc. Much better than junk they have been showing for the last year or so.
  22. Old enough to be in the group of males that might need levitra young enough to NOT
