  1. You guys are kidding, right? Our team is the Buffalo Bills. It's a GREAT freaking name. What's wrong with naming the team after a Medal-of-Honor war hero and one of the most colorful figures of the old wild West? Anyway, my OBD inside sources assure me that we are returning to the 1965 AFC championship era uniforms, and you can take that to the bank because my car is bigger than... SKOOBY'S
  2. You are correct, sir - JP is done...in Buffalo. Unfortunately, he will land with the New Jersey Jets and hand the Bills two of their 12 losses this season. Fortunately, there is light at the end of the tunnel, as a certain Texas Tech coach was just successful in having all buyout penalty $$$ removed from his contract extension if he leaves to coach Da Billsss. His name, you ask? Mike Leach
  3. Anyone who has read anything about the Bataan Death March or the atrocities and war crimes committed by Japan against both American and Filipino civilians in the Philippines, not to mention their barbaric treatment of the Chinese from 1937-1941, would quickly abandon any argument sympathetic to Japan.
  4. I'm pretty sure Peters' contract has 2 years left on it.
  5. Happy Natal Anniversary! Cheers
  6. Yeah, it had to happen - TT had to come to their senses, so the chancellor overruled the AD. But the thing I noticed, what struck me the most, what I'm most excited about, is that there is NO BUYOUT!!!! So when the Bills go 2-14, Ralph finally bites the bullet and faces the cold hard reality that he has to fire Jauron - he'll still have to pay off Dick's contract, but he won't have to pay any buy-out $$$ for... Mike Leach
  7. If it happens, Ralph should move fast on this latest development at Texas Tech, and hire... Mike Leach
  8. Nice try - you didn't check out anything. You didn't have to - you've been here all along.
  9. So you joined yesterday (under this screen name) and are obviously here only to amuse yourself by starting argumentative threads contrived to provoke, I gotta wonder - under what, and how many, other name(s) have you been making an ass of yourself?
  10. If Mr. Wilson is sincere in stating he wants a lot more offense, then what the Bills really need the most is... Mike Leach
  11. Happy Natal Anniversaries! Cheers
  12. Happy Natal Anniversary to youse guys! Cheers
  13. belatedly, best fishes. Cheers
  14. let's see - can't make the big draft-day fish & goose soiree 'cause i'm working, don't need a 'celebrating 50 years of mediocrity' lithograph for my wall, and i take the nfta to the games so the free parking is worthless... why am i writing this check???? oh crap, here we go again... 19 and 0 baby!!!

  16. Funny stuff. Doubt it's gonna earn AlpoDawg's "Great Post" Seal of Approval, but who the f%3K cares? It made me laugh out loud.
  17. Happy Natal Anniversaries to all! Cheers
  18. Actually, Dean, I started to but had to stop - I hate f&%king Pachelbel's Canon in D! You might enjoy this one though - Rachmaninoff Prelude in C# minor - another commercially successful, extremely overplayed, and popular-among-the-laity standard of the classical repertoire - even more popular, in an earlier decade of the last century, than Canon in D - another 'one-hit wonder' I guess...
  19. The other question that puzzles me - can something actually be called a 'hit' if it doesn't become popular with the laity, or commercially successful, until 300 years after it's written? In any case, I wouldn't even say Canon in D is popular with the laity, can't be described as commercially successful since I don't think he made much money off of it, and it is certainly not even close to being one of Pachelbel's most popular compositions among those in the classical music community. In fact, it's probably one of the most reviled - if only because it is sooooo overplayed due to the fact that it became very trendy to play it as a wedding processional in the last part of the 20th century. Thus its familiarity and, to an extent, its popularity grew 'among the laity'. Now, if being extremely overplayed, excerpted, rearranged, and reiterated constitutes a 'hit', then Canon in D certainly qualifies.
  20. I think 'hits' are more accurately described as music that is commercially successful, no?
  21. Makes me wanna head to Broadway Market right now. Not familiar with the 'elephant ears', though.
