Just stopped in to say hello in advance of the game.
If anybody tries to tell you that Jets fans are taking the Bills lightly, don't believe them. We know your team is better than its record and better than when we beat them in October. Looks like the McGahee gamble is working out.
Beating you guys in your house is always a challenge, but I'm pretty sure we can promise Bledsoe a long day.
Prediction: Jets by 7.
good to have ya on the board. Hopefully it will be a close one.
Prediction: Jets by 7.

Gringo. I will take you up on that bet. I want the Bills to win, but I dont think they will.

Then you've reversed your previous position on this, and I'm very happy to hear this. A week ago you were upset because our president wasn't providing enough jobs for people. I'm glad to hear you don't believe that nonsense anymore and respect that each person needs to hold themselves personally responsible for their actions and it is not the responsibility of the government to provide jobs to the unemployed...particularly when there are plenty of jobs available.
Good job, BF. Good job.
Not to completly change the subject, but I heard an interesting piece of information the other day. I heard that the best panhandlers (aka Bums) can make upwards of $50,000 a year. At first I thought "yeah right", but then I ran the numbers.
Every day driving home from work, I on the corner of Okechobee and Military trail, I see a homeless man asking for money. Now, is a pretty busy intersection. Anyway, without fail, every day I see AT LEAST one person give him a dollar or two (if i have a spare buck, I will too, please don't tell me thats stupid of me, that's not the point here). Now, think about it. If 10 people EVERY hour give him a dollar, that's only 1 person every six minutes. In six minutes, 500 cars must pass through this intersection, so 250 each way. I am guessing 1 out of 250 isnt a leap. And this isnt even talking about rush hour. So, lets say he gets $10 every hour that he stands out there. Obviously, he isnt paying taxes, so the guy is making like $14 an hour. That's just under $30k a year. Not bad.
This isnt meant to make anyone think one way or the other, Im just now figuring why when people say "Go get a job" maybe some of them would rather not.

BF, I don't even agree with you on this one.
My whole point was that drug dealers provide something that someone wants anyway; meaning that if Drug dealer A goes to jail, Drug dealer B will be right there to take his business.
I was just saying that there are worse crimes, like pedophilia, murder, etc.
But, is dealing drugs a crime? Yes. Should it be? Yes.
Is sending spam? Apparently. Should it be? Maybe. But by no means punishable by jail time.

Thanks Kota, but I did read the article, and I also did a little research afterwards. They DID go to jail for sending the e-mails, NOT for selling the product.
The "product" they were selling was information. Basically, FedEx guarentees overnight delivery. If its not there overnight, you get a full refund. Well, 7% of FedEx overnight packages do not arrive on time. So, you are entitled to a rfund. What they were selling for $39.95 was information that told people they could basically contact large companies who do a ton of FedExing and offer to split the refund with them if the company let this person do all the work.
Basically, ABC company sends 1000 fedexs overnights a day. Say, $20 a pop. 7% of them dont make it on time. ABC is due for a $1400 refund. John Smith buys this "product" from the people in the article, and with their advice, calls ABC and says "I will do all the work getting your refunds if you split it with me". This doesnt work because ABC could just have some $5.15 an hour employee make the calls to FedEx.
So, it was not "technically" a scam. But it still wasnt making anyone any money.
And Kota, you said they were sentenced for fraud. Actually, and to quote the article that I read: Jurors recommended that Jeremy Jaynes be sentenced to nine years in prison and fined Jessica DeGroot $7,500 after convicting them of three counts each of sending e-mails with fraudulent and untraceable routing information.

Sorry if this is a repeat, but wow... 9 years?
-
no kidding!
I mean, if i was a security guard, i would pray to see a hot chick with a video camera. Because I know hot chicks always have pillow fights in their underwear... and video tape it...
at least that's what I imagine.
But seriously, what if you had been a pot-head or something, and the video had someone smoking a joint or something? Do those rent a cops have the authoirty to bust you? Whole thing seems shady...

So, kickoff will be at 7:00pm? (you guys are 6 ahead of us, right?)

Last year I brought my small video camera into the ralph for a game. Was taking some short video clips of touchdown celebrations in the stands and everything when some security guys showed up.
1 complete dickwad who thought he was a tough guy cause he wore a yellow $4 jacket, and his boss who was polite and levelheaded.
The tape had about 60 minutes of footage of my friends and I hanging out for the weekend, partying etc - good stuff I didn't want to lose, and about 2 minutes of bills stuff.
anyway, they pull me into the hallway, ask me a bunch of questions and then ask me for the tape. I was really pissed, explained the situation, told them I'd leave the game etc. no go. Dickwad was getting all tough with me while this was going on.
My video camera also has a digital camera, so it had an 8mb memory chip in it. I handed it to the guys and told them that was the tape. They believed me and were just about to walk away when dickwad looks closer at the camera and says "why does it say eject tape here?". I was busted and gave them the tape. They told me it would be reviewed by security and I may be able to get it back.
I was bummed cause I knew I'd never get the tape back, and it had some really good stuff on it of the weekend with my buddies. Dickwad keeps giving me stevestojan and leaves with the tape.
15 minutes later the nice guy comes up to my seats, gives me the tape and says 'I'm his boss, and couldn't not take it from you in front of him. keep your camera in your pocket and don't bring it back again".
I couldn't believe how f'ing cool that guy was, and wanted to write a letter to the ralph about him - but didn't want to promote the fact that he broke the rules....
moral of the story - I was wrong, got busted but there are nice people out there.....
So the scene where the stripper got killed was on another tape?
thank god...

ICE is right. She shows the cleavage so you will look. It's all part of the mating game. A woman will consider it a compliment if you glance at her cleavage, then her face and smile.
However, consider the woman's maturity level to determine how she will respond to staring or ogling.
Older women who are comfortable with their sexuality won't be as offended by your staring because they've been around long enough to know that it's normal.
That being said, DO NOT look at the cleavage while a woman is talking to you. Look at her eyes.
If guys looked at the eyes more often they might be better at figuring out when a woman is lying to them!
All I could think of was boobs while I was reading that - sorry, I'll try again.

Alaska Darrin and wwovince, that's fine.. "its not over till its over"..
In your two examples (Houston Oilers and NY Yankees) only ONE team needed to f-ck up and collapse.
For us to get in, not only do we have to basically win out, but we need the Jets, Baltmore, Cleveland, Houston, Indy, Tennesee, San Diego, and KC to finish rather weak in order for us to go in.
Impossible? Of course not.
Probable? About as probable as me ever running a marathon.

Mathematically eliminated. People keep using this word like it is the end all. It's not. There is a thing called reality. Never do I say QUIT, but there comes a point in a football season when you look and you KNOW you don't have a shot at the post season.
The Bills are there now. We will NOT Win 8 more games this year. How can you look at this schedule and with a straight face say THIS team will win more than 3-4 more?
That said....
Play JP starting the Cleveland game. It is amazing to me how fans will, even in the light of Losman, say sit him a year. Ok fair enough. We sit him all of this year. Are you ready to sacrifice next year possibly as well? You might be. The kid may struggle. (Note: YES JP can have an off season his rookie year and still be BETTER than Rothlesburger. *) Now you have sacrificed part if not all of next year too.
Everyone bitches about the OL. Time to give that a rest. Bledsoe HAS TIME. Numerous times the last 4 weeks we have sat at a local sports bar and you can her the unison chant....one, two, three, and sometimes FOUR. that would be the seconds we count that Bledsoe has to get rid of the ball. Any QB that has 3 seconds or more...has more than enough time to throw the ball. I also think it funny that we have a guy behind the same line that has rushed for 100 yards per game in his two starts as well.
My point being we are realisticly done. We can't win on the road. We will not win at NE on the road, forget it. Odds are no way in hell against Seattle on the road as well. It's not quitting to say ok, time to start preping our guys that will be starting next year. Get JP, WM and Evans 4 straight starts together at the end of the season and it helps greatly going into the next offseason
I was thinking the same thing while driving home yesterday. PLAYOFFS? haha..
The funny thing is, there are people that say we have a chance, yet still were rooting for the Jets to beat Miami on Monday because they "hate Miami" - this is just an uninformed fan.
Listen, there are legitimately TWO playoff spots to be had. We are not going to win the division, I think ALL of us can agree on that. That leaves TWO wildcards.
Now, with only two, 9-7 is not gonna cut it. We need to go 10-6 and THEN win a tie breaker or two. 10-6. Ok... we have 9 more games. We need to go 8-1.
Folks, we still are not very good. In his BEST performance of the year, our QB threw for 81 yards.
So, I think Jim Mora said it best when he said:
PLAYOFFS?!??!?

Fearing that some of my fellow TBDers were confused as to what cleavage was, I figured a visual representation was in order:

the "nicest" areas would be places like East Amherst, Orchard Park... ummm... hmmm... then you have your nice, but not "amherst" places like West Seneca, Evans, Elma, Eden, Hamburg, etc.

Wait, I know we were winning one of these wars.... was it the war on poverty?
Maybe I'm wrong.
Alcohol leads to other crimes, but we can still use that. Hardcore drugs only "lead" to other crimes because they are illegal.
I don't know. Either legalize all of them, or stiffen the fine/punishment for their use.

Yeah, I never did quite figure out why, even with the replicas, they make them so damn big. I mean, I had to send my XXL back for an XL. Any female under 5'5 would be hard pressed to be able to even wear a small.
By the way guys, buffalobills.com has a new set of jerseys. They are all of the OLinemen and they come with collapsable pockets.

Cartman is an obvious one (the episode where he joined the special olympics just to win the prize money was one of the funniest half hours of TV i have ever seen), but Timmy is the best. He can convey so much just with the tone of the way he says his own name.
