You can call Bledsoe Bledslow, you can say he holds the ball too long, you can say a lot in criticism of Bledsoe, but ... Humpty? Why? Has he shown an RJ ability to get a contusion on his butt? Has he torn rib cartilige by falling on the ball? DB is anything but fragile. To the consternation of most anti-DB people, he just doesn't get hurt. I stopped reading this guy a while back.

Merry Christmas from pkwwjd and Mrs. pkwwjd. Wishing the Bills the best in the playoffs and that everyone's Christmas dinner would be as good as a Garbage Plate.

... upon whom His favor rests! Merry Christmas.

My question is: WHY ON EARTH DO THEY HAVE A GAME FEATURING 2 EAST COAST TEAMS (ACTUALLY THE 2 FARTHEST EAST COAST TEAMS) ON AT 4 PM????????? That is just dumb, unless someone can explain the timing of NFL games for me.

I believe it was a "Ralph Wilson SuperBowl team" 'Course I might be mistaken, anyone?

Thank you, it was very confusing to me, 'course I'm one of those fans who doesn't claim to be an expert, I admit I don't know stuff. :-)

Until they take the capability for fan voting out of the ProBowl, this will continue to happen. Fan involvement is not necessary in this area and only goes to keep the best from being rewarded by rewarding those with names or stats -- just see Reuben Brown

I ran into Scotty Bowman at Disney World in November -- having breakfast at Chef Mickey's. He said to expect no season this year and that the NHL will start next season with replacement players. Just his thoughts. The owners are dug in and ready to let this last forever, just about. He seemed to think that there will be a salary cap or no more NHL.

good research, TravDad

but ... Brady is great and ... Bledsoe stinks ... can't win big game ... can't come from behind ... Uhhuh

That page is all messed up with stats: When did Shane Matthews throw 85 passes in the last 5 games?

So is LaCrosse. I'm waiting for Lax to take over as a somewhat major sport. That's fun to play and watch.

I was at the BUF/NE game in early 80s when Fergy threw the Hail Mary / Big Ben play that Hooks caught. Unfortunately, my dad also said "Let's Go" a few minutes before. We stood just outside in the parking lot when we heard the roar of the crowd, followed by "Here's the replay on the scoreboard." And there in Black and Amber for all the world to see -- the reason I never leave ANY game early, not pro, college or HS. I even stay all the way through my son's TBall games that don't keep score (although that's for a different, good-father reason). We have never let my father live that game down.

Is ICE back? This Playfair guy (not the Sabre, but the username) sounds frighteningly like ICE

right, I just brought it up because some guy on Countdown last night said that Strength of VICTORY would become a household word in the next week and that the Bills would probably get in because of it -- if we win out. We just need to take care of business and hope to get help. If we get all that help this week, we control our own destiny.

I just did a quick run down of strength of victory for the four teams tied for the 6th spot in the AFC. Currently, the wins by opponents that each team has beaten is: Buffalo 58 Denver 63 Jax 71 Balt 71 This assuming each of the four win out and no new victories by any already beaten opponents. Right now, it doesn't look like we have a chance in any strength of victory scenario like they said on Countdown last night -- if only strength of victory meant how badly you beat teams when you did win, then we would be front runners as none of the other three teams have dominated any victories like we have for five weeks. This being said, our best chance is STILL the other three losing at least one game and / or the Jests losing both.

Ah, so his default is pick the home team? Why did he get 3 points for correctly guessing the monday night score?

check out the picks in the football pool BOTH OF THEM PICKED MIAMI and the rest of their games the same and the tiebreaker, correctly, at 57 Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

This also helps our cause in terms of strength of victory which the broadcast talked about tonight. Every win that a team that we beat puts in helps us later. We get a double bonus because Miami counts for two wins in that case.

Slightly off topic: Yahoo won't let me drop TO in my fantasy football playoffs -- I need a replacement. EDIT: Man, you air a grievance and it is heard. I just dropped TO!

Was Miami's win a total fluke or did they expose a problem in the Paytoilet's armor? Is there any kind of a blueprint? It's not exactly everyday that a 2-11 beats a 12-1. Anyone have any thoughts? I'm sure everyone around the league is talking about it.

you said "good" and "niners" in the same sentence

Hey 34-78-83, your avatar is great, but they appear in reverse order from your username. It makes me dizzy knowing that they don't match, but that might be because I'm unusually anal.
