  1. Rudy, do not worry about anything?

     

    Really, man, if it isn't the Bills and a problem you've discovered, it's something else ain't it?

     

    BTW, DTV, after having it for almost 10 years -- I have nothing bad to say about it. The signal will hold if it is installed properly. I can count on one hand the times that I lost a signal due to weather -- 3 years in Chicago winters, 4 northern Wisconsin winters, and now starting my 4th northwest PA winter.

  2. Walt is the FIRST person in this show that has had unusual experiences before the plane crash. It is very obvious, from the bird episode, that he can conjure up stuff.

     

    After last week, we were talking about how maybe Locke is the key to the whole show -- y'know, tabula rasa.

     

    This week, my wife and I wondered if Walt is actually sustaining everything on the island. Did he conjure the plane crash? Did he see Locke in a wheelchair and visualize him walking? We KNOW he's connected to the Polar Bear -- twice -- each time when he doesn't know where his (actually Brian's) dog is. Hmmmm.

     

    Thoughts?

  3. I just hope he does not go to the Fish.  I would hate to face him twice and year.  Hate him all you want, the guy is a 1200 yd rusher and the Bills gave up on him too fast.

    We did not give up on TH -- I believe he gave up on the Bills this year.

     

    Yes, his starting job was taken away. Why? Someone did it better. Does that make THen bad? No.

     

    Talk about his toughness all you want, but he went down on his first play in a game. Yes, his ankle twisted. I'm sure it hurt, but I question whether or not he really wanted to play for the Bills again. The play he got hurt on reminded me of a season ending turf toe injury in the fourth quarter of a preseason finale.

  4. Yes, there's a big difference between a sneak and a draw for a QB.

     

    However, I remember at least once-- maybe twice -- that we used the QB draw this year. Both times somewhat successfully.

     

    Can't remember when though

  5. We used TiVo to go back to the scene where Boone and his "sister" are initially scared by the monster. We did it frame by frame and you can see that there is a trap that is sprung by nothing. A giant net trap that is sprung and the four corners pull up into the canopy of the trees.

     

    I find it hard to believe that it's all they could do to create a special effect. There has to be something more to the trap being sprung. Is Locke trying to catch something? I know, it was all a dream sequence, but the ABC producer wouldn't make it that obvious -- they would have just done CG to make the monster approach. Go back and look at it if you have TiVO.

  6. "Talking about our QBs" might be a bannable offense.

    Any criticism of Drew brings out a haranguing tirade of abuse from his violently committed supporters. It's like telling a new parent their baby is ugly. They have a visceral reaction that quickly gets irrational.

    So, let's talk about upgrading every other position on the team - just rest assured that QB doesn't need upgrading because it's (cough-cough) in the very (hands shaking now) capable hands of the Drewish one. :w00t:

    Talking about the QBs is fine, especially when someone like Jay makes comments about the situation and doesn't attack anyone (on the board or on the team).

     

    Jay, your point about how we are moving the identity of the team away from the strengths that DB has is excellent. I think Bledsoe did an adequate (sometimes OK, sometimes crappy) job fitting his square peg into that round hole this year. The game plan was not centered around his strengths -- what's left of them anyway.

     

    I don't know that the current direction is game planned to JPL's strengths either. I just don't know enough about JP. The little that I've seen in preseason and games seems to be that he is more of a gunslinger, improviser -- not a ball control kind of guy. Time will tell.

  7. that idea may work for guys who are on the bubble (although I don't think it's entirely true because your example was rather extreme), but not for who to start

     

    no one can argue that Frank Reich wasn't the better man his entire career backing up JK. I know that Jim has settled down now, relatively calm family man now, but before ... no way. You don't select your starter that way.
