What good is having your honor restored if the masses don't know it's restored?

Surprising to me that Marrone would be so open about his projection on Rogers (or any player).

Final bump.

It was my understanding that the guy that wore the wire for the FBI (I think posing as a new employee) was on tape asking a coworker if Haslam knew about the scheme, and the coworker said yes.

Russell was suspended indefinitely so by definition it's too early to know that that penalty was too light.

No doubt this is true. What GM would take this guy to be the leader/face of his franchise, with all the pressure that entails? Those are some expensive drinks he is enjoying.

Duh! You are correct sir. If someone can show me how to edit the thread title, I will change it accordingly.

OK, it now shows up when I search my DVR for upcoming recordings, but when I look it up on the guide it isn't showing on NFL Network at that time. I guess time will tell if it will record or not.

Bumping this now, before I forget. Get your DVRs ready guys!

Not saying I don't believe you, but how do you know this?

Sorry, gotta vote for the white. Much more classic looking.

You mean the millions of unwashed masses too ignorant to join this forum?

Just spoke to customer retention and got the $15 for 15 discount, and ST for free. It got a bit rough when the first attempt yielded only half off ST, then I asked what the termination fee would be. After the agent calculated it & I said I'd have to think about cancelling, he asked what it would take to satisfy me and I then got what I wanted. Turned out to be a $445 savings for a 20 minute call. As others have said in past years, the key is asking for customer retention. I like this thread.

I'll be interested to see if the Bills have any inside track here, considering that Bill Conaty is Bamiro's agent.

Such as?

Who's making this projection, other than you?

I've set my DVR already but will try to remember. Such pressure!

Wednesday July 17 @ 2:30 am EST. Not exactly prime time.

I'm looking at Aug 4, 5 or later that week. Should be a nice escape from the heat.

Editorial comment: this is always one of my favorite threads of the year. Always looking for a new angle to use with DTV. Carry on...

Agree, but this is what desperation looks like.

Not saying I don't believe you, but I wonder what criteria DTV uses to validate your claim that your team "stinks" and thus you deserve a discount. For example, how do they know you're really a Bills fan and not a 49ers fan? Does a 2-2 preseason record suffice to prove "stinkiness" of your team or does your team need to go 1-3 or worse? Does DTV put a lot of stock in preseason as a gauge of your team's crappiness or do they look at past seasons' records? Or is the whole thing really just a bizarre game where the rep at the other end just spins a wheel or flips a coin and then tells you what if any discount you "deserve"?

I agree. Come 1:00 on Sept. 8th, I will be standing at my seat waiting for kickoff, spine tingling, fully embracing the possibility that we can and will beat the Pats*. I don't care if we go another 13 years without sniffing the playoffs - I start every year with similar expectations and I hope I never lose that hope.

You have to like this type of humility coming from the #16 pick. It's a great sign.

Unless you did it, in which case you'd be home free.
