Sweats

Be safe everyone, enjoy your day with friends and family and please, don't drink and drive. ........gobble gobble

Bills - 27 Niners - 17

My wife is hosting some sort of dinner party on Sunday night..........not for the game, but with "some people" and i'm sure she told me all about it probably 12 times, but i still don't know what the hell is going on. No idea what we're eating, no idea who's coming over, nothing and every time she brings it up, i just pretend that, oh yeah, i'm all over it.......i'm not and i have no clue. All i know is that it's going to be fairly fancy. So, ole Sweats is going to be a bit of a fancy boy that evening. Jesus Christ.

I usually take the Thanksgiving Thursday off of work and watch the 3 back to back to back games, however, this year i'm too swamped with work and can't take the day off. ...........gobble gobble.

......i wouldn't say no.

We saw Airplane at the movie theatre when we were like 10 years old. My buddy's old man who was looking after us at the time, took us to the movie and then snuck out to go to the track and bet on the ponies and just left us sitting there. 10 year old kids who didn't understand the jokes at all, but really enjoyed any and all of the breast scenes, i can tell you that.

I totally understand, however, i was always entertaining out of town clients and the first thing they always wanted was to go to a Bills game, so if that meant obliging them to earn more business, so be it. At the time, that money didn't mean much to me as i was rolling in it, however, changing times, changing priorities, changing economy, tight budget, etc. and i can't afford tickets like that anymore.

Those were definitely two of my favorites when i was a kid........i also loved The Black Cauldron, the original Pete's Dragon and Escape to Witch Mountain

We took my son out to a restaurant the other night to celebrate passing his schooling and i hate even mentioning it, but you have to hear this....... We had a wicked snowstorm going on and there was absolutely no one in the restaurant, just us. At one point, i excused myself from the table and went to the washroom to have a leak (the men's and women's washrooms are back-to-back) and while i was at the urinal, i heard someone in the woman's washroom really destroying a toilet, like i'm talking really painting the walls sort of thing going on with a lot of grunting, moaning and horrifying rectal noises. Of course, when i was finished i had to hang around the lobby for a few minutes to see who the hell was in there, but after about 5 minutes, it kind of made me look creepy, so i went back to the table. I've never heard such noises emanating from a woman's washroom.......i find it troubling.

I wanted the whole box for every season thereon after and wanted the FO to give me the info on how to proceed, who to contact, etc.

I would have to say boxing. I used to train at the same gym as Lennox Lewis and his trainer, Arnie Boehm (the KW Police Association Boxing Club) so not only did i box, but i followed boxing religiously, however, when Lennox finally retired, i lost interest as the only other boxers at the time were basically the Klitschko brothers from Ukraine and the boxing commission just basically handed them the belts.......the sport just got real boring after that.

Before my old man passed away, he said that we were all witnessing something special with JA and to enjoy it cause we may never see another guy like him........he just wanted to see the Bills hoist one Lombardi before he passed on and he believed that JA was the guy to finally get them there. I would love to see JA get the recognition that he deserves by getting an MVP and a Lombardi. He certainly deserves it.......the fans deserve it.

I watched him play at Penn state and he was electric every time he touched the ball.........he just had to get out of New York to properly showcase his talents

A number of years ago (during the Buddy Nix era), i contacted OBD to look into season ticket prices for their executive luxury boxes, like i'm talking the high-end suites here. Whenever i called to enquire, they put me on hold for countless hours, gave me the run-around, wasted my time, etc.......when i emailed them, they never got back to me at all, not even once, until...... When the FO finally did get back to me, their response was, "you want season tickets for our executive luxury boxes?........can we ask why?" (i'm totally serious here). So, as you know, the team hit a major rough patch for a number of years and were just God awful, so while everyone was giving up their season tickets, i guess they were in shock and awe that someone actually wanted some. I thought it kind of humorous........my wife was not impressed. Long story short, when it comes to tickets, i take care of it all myself.

I would love to believe this; however, you can never count them out, no matter the situation, the roster, etc. They just find ways to win and always seem to turn it up a notch in the post season and honestly, i don't think it really matters to them if they win by 1 point or 50, every win puts them closer to a 3-peat. They are still very much dangerous.

So, my son just passed his beautician and beauty salon schooling and is now certified in "all things beauty".........(whatever the hell that means). While he was going through his schooling, i let him practice his hair cutting techniques on me and needless to say, i ended up with a lot of really bad haircuts to say the least, but i did my part in helping him along the way. He wanted to quit a few times, but we encouraged him to continue, as now he is skilled with a credible certificate, and no one can take that away and it is always something he can lean on if he ever decides to try something else. I've always been a "barber" guy, but because he is a "beauty salon" guy, i'm starting to lean that way. Beauty salons.........love em or hate em?

This one might actually bring a tear to my eye (yes, ole Sweats DOES have a heart)....... I grew up poor.......like, i'm talking poor as poor can be and i always knew at Christmas time, my parents slugged hard to earn a little extra cash for Christmas presents for us kids. The one year when i was a kid, i got an 8-track radio/stereo. Now this is around the time where 8 tracks were being phased out as cassette tapes were flooding the market, so stores couldn't even give their 8 track players away, however, my old man got me this 8-track radio/stereo for Christmas.....and as much as i wanted to tell him that 8 tracks just weren't really a "thing" anymore, i didn't have the heart to tell him cause i know he worked hard to get me a decent present......albeit, an outdated present, but a present nonetheless. I'll never forget it.

When it's too cold for them, it's just right for us. I actually don't remember too many times where the Bills absolutely blew or imploded in December.......and i'm old, so read that as you will.

I wasn't there, but a bunch of us were at my buddy's place watching the game, thinking, is anyone going to make a defensive stop here?......i mean, the game couldn't possibly go back and forth with no punts?........it did and when anyone mentions the Bills top games, i bring up this one. The Shootout at Candlestick.........good times.

To this day, that's still one of my favorite games by the Bills and the fact that every time a runner broke free, he looked like he's rounding third at Candle stick park is priceless.

I used to watch it religiously in the 90's and early 2000's, but since they turned it into a game of flag football, i'm out.

I love when we play the Fins......the rivalry is excellent with some good end to end action. We've seen that Tua can't play in the cold, and he has yet to win a playoff game, but at least i know when we play them every time, they bring their "A" game and that's good for the fans. The Steelers scare no one.......nothing more needs to be said here. The Bungles are hit and miss.......they always run hot and cold and this year is no different. Burrow is still having a good season, but he has very little supporting cast around him, so i would expect they are a "one and done" in the post season. The Chargers have a good young team, but i don't think this is their year (maybe next year), but they are on pace to having a lot of good years ahead of them. The Bolts don't scare me........yet. The Ravens scare the hell outta me. We match up poorly with them and Lamar looks like he has found his passing rhythm cause last night he was dropping dimes......and the King, well the dude is a steamroller and good luck to teams trying to take him out of the equation. The Colts are just plain dead.........they just don't know it and no one has told them yet. KC doesn't strike fear into teams this year like years past. They are beatable and Mahomes looks like a shell of his former self, however, they always seem to turn it on in the post season where KC just continues to rack up wins and Lombardi's. The Texans started off hot and then kind of dwindled off pace with injuries. I'm not counting them out, but i think the 2nd meeting (if it ever happens) with the Bills, we will crush soundly. Now with all this being said, i still don't think there's an AFC team that can beat the Bills. I think the only team that can beat the Bills, are the Bills themselves with penalties, sloppy play, turn overs, undisciplined play, poor game management, etc......i think the 3 big ball beaters in the AFC are the Bills, the Ravens and KC and it'll be fun to see if all 3 steamroll the rest of the AFC or if a contender shows up for the crown. Stay tuned.

Jesus, look at the spread on that.................................................................................................(get yer mind outta the gutter, boys)

Agreed about Cincy, but my rule of thumb for unknown games is "home" team has the edge.........take this info as you will.

Eagles.......they're hot right now Tampa.......Panthers gave KC all they could handle, but the Bucs still have some life in them Chargers........this could actually be a blow out Rams........Saints aren't scaring anyone this year Steelers at Bangles.........don't know about this one. I think the Bungles just might pull it off. The Steelers aren't as good as their record says they are and i'm not buying into them (so, good luck with this one).
