  1. I don't think so... red checkered table cloths weren't introduced into the US until the 20th century...
  2. It's crazy that the President of the United States who was assassinated in Buffalo, is buried in the home city of the Pro Football Hall of Fame... which is almost as crazy as the owner of Buffalo's football team naming said team after the historical figure who was famous for killing the animal which symbolizes the city.
  3. I think it was the same deal with William McKinley... the surgeons botched the retrieval of the bullet so badly that they did much greater damage than "the assassin."
  4. Yeah the Raiders looked a gift bronco in the mouth.
  5. Denver has to be nervous that it's still only a 3 point game... Raiders just hanging around...
  6. Reminds me of the ballyhooed heave from Tua to Waddle in that Miami X post...
  7. They're not allowed to dispense smelling salts anymore so maybe syringes of Toredol?
  8. AB's an easy target but it really is kind of sad.
  9. The highest expression of the art of football... BTW, condolences on your death.
  10. Zero pass protection and receivers dropping balls. Geno's not great but virtually every one of his offensive teammates has played worse than he has. Yep. They could possibly win their division but no way Denver wins the conference. Wait... is porn a sport now? This is the first time I've watched a Nix game. What jumps of the screen is that his physical tools don't jump of the screen. Talk about a contact-averse, noodle arm who would rather avoid contact than pay the price to step into a throw and deliver a good ball. Oh c'mon Turk. You know we've all watched many worse games than this. We haven't turned it off yet so that's proof positive.
  11. Did this guy go to the same medical school as The Thigh Doctor? The justification for bringing in guys who were here during training camp and the preseason is that they know the system and can be trusted to know their assignments and arguably can contribute more easily than players who don't know the system. To those bagging on Landon Jackson, just remember the same treatment was given to Cole Bishop. Have some patience. His chiropractor must be drooling...
  12. Does Nix always look like every capillary in his face has ruptured?
  13. The announcers were talking about "strong, swirling winds"
  14. I don't do X and can't view but regardless... that's a lot of dough!
  15. I thought Garfield died from a splenectomy... seriously.
  16. In fairness they were playing it as 4 down territory.
  17. FWIW, he makes over $40 million/year so he can't be that dumb.
  18. You hypocrite!!! The early Broncos unis were infamous for their vertical sox. It was a different regime but it wasn't that long ago that they drafted Josh Jacobs in the 1st round... but he was 24th overall. If you're a Bronco fan, you're either a Bo-liever or you're not.
  19. As many here know, on the trade value charts a 3rd is more points than a 4th plus a 5th so yes, the Bills theoretically could have done something like a 4th, 5th, and 7th... and that would have left them with just 4 picks in the next draft.
  20. McBeane have always said, "football games are won in the trenches." Though they've had their share of misses on the D-line, there's no question they've invested heavily in both lines and we're starting to see that practice pay off.
  21. Niners GM John Lynch on the trade deadline: “We weren’t going to get fleeced,” Lynch said on KNBR, via 49ersWebzone.com. “We weren’t going to overpay. It’s just not good business. And, as they say, sometimes the best deals you do are the ones you don’t do. And I felt like, in this case, we felt like, as an organization, that was the best course, and as I mentioned before, we have a lot of belief.”
  22. Those are Collinsworth's nephews...
  23. Suggestions? Don't wear dark clothing!
  24. I really appreciate you guys sharing your stories. This conversation is another opportunity for the fortunate among us to count our blessings and empathize with the stories of others. I really hope that any of our members who are having tough times feel they can reach out to others here for a needed ear or a hand. Also, don't forget that the Crisis Hotline is 9-8-8.
  25. Before the Bills-Falcons game in week 6 (the last time Palmer played), the broadcast crew (Fowler/Riddick/Orlovsky) talked about how the Bills told them that they didn't realize Palmer was so fast and that he was going to be a big part of their game plan. He caught those 2 passes for 60 yards and was injured at the beginning of the 2nd quarter. To your bolded comments, Palmer hasn't played since then.
