  1. Sometimes the NFL (N0 Fun League) just doesn't get it. Pat Tillman, at the very least, deserves to be honored by the NFL for the entire season, not just one game.
  2. It got to the point yesterday that I was hoping that they wouldn't score a second touchdown just so I didn't have to suffer the dissapointment of them blowing the lead. For Christ's sake, I was so bored by the game I kept switching over to Antique Roadshow!
  3. You and me both!
  4. I'm depressed, but not suicidal
  5. I can spend more time with my children on Sundays
  6. The Losman countdown is going to start because the season is slowing turning in to stevestojan and Bills fans, especially those of us still in WNY, need something to look forward to.
  7. So, who do you think the Cowboys take with our top 5 pick?

  9. Make your last second predictions about how we will find a way not to pull this one out
  10. THis is why I wanted Bledsoe to throw an INT earlier, I can't take another last second loss
  11. This is frickin brutal
  12. Here comes a Jet FG
  13. Jeez! should we just let them score so we can get the ball back bleech!
  14. Defense needs to make a big stop here
  15. Just when Im ready to pitch it in for the season and find better things to do on Sunday afternoons!
  16. The President certainly did better than last time which helps him. Senator Kerry was laughable with his "read my lips" pledge. I hope this I have a plan rhetoric starts to numb the American people. In 2000 Hillary spent a lot of time here in WNY talking about how she had a plan for the economic recovery of upstate. Exit polling info showed that one of the main reasons people voted for Hillary is because they felt she had a plan. We're still waiting.
  17. Yard signs, when done right, do the following: 1) Create some name recognition for the candidate- especially at the local level. While signs don't vote, they do place the name out there on a subliminal level. 2) They can signal a strong campaign organization to the politico's. We pay attention to how many signs are up are judge a campaign's effectiveness by them. 3) Can signal a campaign's momentum. For example, in the Town of Tonawanda a few years ago- a traditional Republican stronghold- a Dem. Town Council candidate went out one night and must have put up over 750 signs throughout the town. So when you went to sleep there were no signs and in the morning they seemed to appear out of no where and were everywhere. BTW, he won. 4) Can be used to deflate the opponent’s desire to go on. The first year I ran, I made sure that I filled my opponent’s street with my signs. He woke up one morning to find that a good number of his neighbors supported me. That couldn't have felt good. 5) If you get a lot of signs up, they signal to the voters that you are going to win. People like to vote for a winner. There are a probably a few more reasons that I’m not thinking of this morning.
  18. Even though I have no reason to be hopeful, I am. So here goes. The Bills finally figure a few things out and get their groud game going for a 24 - 13 victory
  19. I have never really liked Country Music, even after living in AZ for ten years. However, my wife bought the Big and Rich CD - who I think opened the show- and I really am hooked on them. Did they open the show? They look like they would be a lot of fun in concert. Oh and by the way, Arizona State is 5-0!!!!! Go Devils!!
  20. BA History from Arizona State MS Education from D'Youville College I teach High School in lovely North Tonawanda, NY Oh, and my Devils are 4-0!!!!
