  1. No way
  2. A 3rd and a 5th for 30 yr old Marvin Jones? ?
  3. Golladay is good but not a speed guy by any means, big bodied yes, speedy no. In fact his 4.5 40 was 20th in his combine wr class and his 3 cone was 26th.
  4. The Cyclone top speed listed at 60 mph with a g-force of 4Gs, the Comet was 55 mph. The Comet was less scary, a much longer lasting ride, and could haul over 8 times the amount of riders per hour.
  5. Doesn't let Star know they want to keep him past this year at all imo. The restructure will make it easier to keep him if they so desire, but the Bills can easily move on after this year if that is what they decide.
  6. There wouldn't have been much to gain letting him go cap wise and at least he is now being paid more like the average rotational dt that he is. The Bills can move on after next season if they want or need to. Seeing as how they were pretty much stuck with his contract this year anyway I see it as a win.
  7. My parents would have a cottage every summer and dance to the big bands, Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller, Dorseys, Woody Herman, etc. at the Crystal Ballroom in the 40s and 50s before I was born.
  8. We would end every family trip to CB riding down the Magic Carpet. I don't know when they took the carpet ride out. I think mid to late 70s was probably the last time I rode the rides but I never bothered with the Magic Carpet except as a kid with the family. The Comet was #1 attraction for me from the time I was tall enough.
  9. I rode that ride. The capsules would turn as the giant arm spun them around. I could draw it. My belt came loose on their as well and I got banged around inside the cage til the guy heard me yelling and stopped it. I lost a bunch of quarters out of my pockets too. The Aero something I think, or something to do with rocketships.
  10. Loved the Comet as a kid, and just being at Crystal Beach in general. The yellow wooden coaster was cool too. Didn't like the Wild Mouse, thought I would fly out. Saw someone throw up on their own face riding the Rotor when the floor dropped away. The Scrambler was fun, but don't get squashed. We would always go through the big fun house last before leaving the park. The Magic Palace or something like that. At the end you would ride down this big carpeted belt and exit the building. As teenagers we hung out at cottages on Bay and Crystal Beach. Lots of good times.
  11. Loblaws I believe. Me and the siblings would get piles of free tickets.
  12. that punter King can boom em
  13. The announcer just said "I think he fell out of love with kicking balls". ?
  14. It's free government cheese day?
  15. Murray is wearing clown shoes.
  16. I like the sideline reporter chasing the guy for a comment.?
  17. I was at both of those shows. The 78 show was the 4th of July, after the show we all went to my friend's beach house at Sunset Bay and partied all weekend. Good times indeed!
  18. One last picture from this past summer at one of his favorite spots. Thnx for this thread Gugny. ?
  19. This is Harry about 4 months ago. He is ~14 1/2 yrs old. 6/1/05 -- 2/6/2020 RIP my friend.
  20. Thanx for this timely thread Steptide, I am sorry for your loss.
  21. Thanx Duke Thanx Gugny
