  1. What I love the most is his CONSISTENCY. He doesn't do it now and again. It's the same every week.
  2. It looked like it might have been good if the upright was much taller. There is a guy standing right under that upright, though, and he should be able to see if the ball is in or out.
  3. Just when he had settled down and was in a groove...he misses that one.
  4. Wish there had been a crowd for that Pick 6!!! Best play of the half.
  5. Jackals and Hyenas are crazy, scrappy, tough things that will go after almost anything. I think I read once that a Water Buffalo has no natural enemy in its immediate ecosystem, but that seems wrong as I have seen videos on Youtube of different animals fighting them. A fully grown, African bull elephant in a really pissed off mood is difficult to defeat. They like to squat down and push their tusks/head onto their victim, crushing it between their head and the ground. I don't know what *single animal* could give such an animal a fight. If packs are allowed, a whole bunch of female Lions can probably kill anything. There are videos of them taking down elephants. Then you have this crazy Tiger in one of my favorite animal videos ever! I think he'd put up a tough fight against anything, but there are plenty of mammals that would take him down.
  6. I have never tried to get in, but I have definitely approached a car thinking it was "mine" and then realized at the last second "This isn't my car." This mostly happens with rentals and cars I am unfamiliar with but am driving for whatever reason.
  7. I agree. Right now, at this point, in this season, the Bills are looking as good as they have since the Super Bowl teams. That's 25 years. I think a win against Pitt could be said to be the biggest/best Bills win in that time.
  8. Are the players referenced exceptionally good? Or is the talent evaluation in the NFL exceptionally bad? 🤔
  9. Thanks for posting this. I wish it had better sound quality though. Here is a better recording of the same David Wilcocks arrangement.
  10. Stumbled across this last night. Lovely arrangement.
  11. I played with the playoff spots a few days ago and at that moment in time we would have hosted the Browns in Game 1 of the playoffs. But it's all moving and shifting all the time, and it's too early to start "scheming" the playoff road IMO. Will be fascinating to see how it all falls together in the last week or 2 of the season, though.
  12. KC vs. Miami, Bills Sunday Night, and Baltimore vs. Cleveland on Monday will make for a good weekend of football.
  13. Don't mind the all red look as it is unusual and rare. I don't really care what uniform permutation they wear; I cheer for the team, not their uniforms.
  14. It made me laugh out loud when it happened.
  15. Pennsylvania was in dry dock undergoing repairs on 12-7-41. Here's a photo! It's in the background.
  16. Love your objectivity here, but be careful...people around here will be coming for you with shivs when you aren't looking.
  17. I am disappointed to see we don't have a dedicated thread announcing the firing. Will Gregggg move on to yet another team, or has this league finally figured things out? I bet he gets another job.
  18. Hang in there folks, legalization for everyone, everywhere, is coming, and soon. Will still take more time, but it's coming.
  19. Those are all great sets, including my beloved Galaxy Explorer! That yellow "builder set" is quite cool. That looks like the type of thing that was just before my time with Lego, by only a few years. The trains are all fantastic, I really like those. I have the relatively recent "Emerald Night" that I will never sell. I honestly think it's one of the best, cleanest pieces of Lego design ever. There is a cool new train set out now, the crocodile. E.N.: Crocodile: That spaceship was the biggest, coolest thing to have in the world of Lego the year it came out. Or at least one of the best Lego sets. Everyone wanted it and it was impossible to get a hold of, especially pre-internet or Lego.com. I agree it is now horribly dated and it doesn't feature any particularly special build techniques! My 8 year old self (or however old I was) thought it was absolutely amazing.
  20. You're right, we should stick to reports of fat people throwing human excrement at other humans over a dispute at fast food restaurants. You probably wouldn't like it, don't worry about it.
  21. Back before the draft in which all these QBs came out (Allen, Darnold, Rosen, Mayfield, etc.), people seemed to be in agreement that success for ANY of them would depend a lot on the circumstances they found themselves in on their team. Would they get the right nurturing, development, coaching? Would they enter an organizational tire fire? Ironically, most of the bigger names (at the time) seem to have found themselves in bad situations, including Mayfield. I would argue Mayfield has the talent to overcome that, and the Browns' situation has leveled off to help as well. But Darnold is in a nightmare situation, and Josh Rosen might have had the least lucky start to an NFL career in NFL history. I still say Josh Rosen has a shot at salvaging his career, but it will be down the road in a second or third or 4th life kind of situation, something like Tannehill is doing now in Nashville. Of the bunch, Josh Allen seems to have found himself in the best supportive situation where growth is possible.
