No one saw me do it...I swear....check EBay....

Next time leave the kids at home and head over with your wife.

My wife did the same thing. Left her job prosecuting child abuse for NYC for a small, private law firm. Law firm paid more cash. She hated it. Wanted to go back to ACS. I actually handle the $$$ in the house. It was a little tight, but we figured we could make it work. I asked my company for a little more $$ and it worked out. She went back to ACS and was happy. Life is too short not to be happy.

Turned every thread into his personal crusade against Drew Bledsoe. Essentially, the thread could be about washing your car, and he would basically turn it into Drew Bledsoe sucks, worst QB ever, why bother washing your car. It was excessive.

On the second play, I couldn't believe McGahee missed the pickup. Until yesterday, I had never seen JP air it out. I also had never seen him run with the guts he showed on the TD run. He's gonna be good. Real good. Its just gonna take a bit of time. The one thing you can't rush is experience. Next week, I hope to see JP get rid of the ball quicker...or at least feel the blind side pressure a bit more. Realize that with the exception of Spikes, Fletcher, Peerless and a few OL, all of our starters and the guys we count on are under 26 years old. Give them time. Chart their progress. Get angry when they make the same mistakes, but realize that how we respond to mistakes and adversity is what will ultimately forge the identity of this team and era of Bills football. The previous years' teams would fall apart. The SB era team would persevere. Lets see what we are made of. This years team is exciting. They are very young. Yesterday, they fought back and made it close. After hearing JP's press conference and reading the papers, there was no finger pointing. Willis was accountable for his missed block. JP was accountable for his fumbles and INTs. This is a good thing. A young team learning what they have to do to win the NFL. Give them time. And root like hell.

He will. Just give him a little time.

I had good seats, with season ticket holders who actually knew football. A little back and forth but thats it.

in Philly, in full Bills gear....no problems.

Good point with Daunte. He had nowhere to go but down after losing Moss. Still, people were buying him like crazy this offseason, you could have made out pretty big by simply shorting him before the year.. As for JP, yesterday I saw a young John Elway. Yep. I really said that. Bold statement. He has the arm, the legs, buys time in the pocket and a biut of a gunslinger. Just give him a bit of experience and look out. Thats why I say STRONG BUY on JP. Buy all you can. Its only gonna get better as he learns more about the game.

Easy everyone. You want to place blame for this loss, blame INEXPERIENCE. Our young D and young guys on O learned some painful lessons about managing a game. The key is not to make the same mistake twice. Our team, one of the youngest in the league, absolutely dominated another NFL team. They made some stupid mistakes that cost us a game, but they dominated. Don't point fingers. This is the type of game a young team loses, learns from, and then wins convincingly. I'm loving this team. They will only get better.

The second JP fumble was a result of Willis missing badly on picking up the safety, we should bring Thurman back to teach him how to pick up a blitz. BTW - We found a QB. The end. JP reminded me of a young John Elway out there yesterday. WTF!!! He looked friggin awesome. He'll learn to take better care of the ball, but my friggin God. Tough loss, but we can take so much away from this game. This is the way a young, inexperienced team that gonna be friggin awesome someday, loses games. Absolutely dominate the opposition but make a few key mistakes that lead to a loss. We'll learn to eliminate those mistakes, then look the f---out!!! I can honestly say that I haven't been this excited for a Bills team and era since 1988!!!!

You always have a few!!! But for the most part you'd better bring the beer goggles!

Nice read.... http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=ap-b...ov=ap&type=lgns

You only wish you could get into a school like Duke.

Of serious accomplishments. You're right keggy, we Duke guys do expand our record of accomplishments. We always need folks from inferior schools to work for us...where did you go to college?

I have taken 20A often and I thought it was both directions. Thats what I meant, trucks weren't permitted to go the whole stretch of 20A, so they avoid it altogether.

Thats b/c they can't take 20A.

I usually miss those as by the time I'm heading onto 20A, it is late at nite. I fly, but turn on all lights (brights/fog etc.) looking for deer. Every time I take that way I B word that there should be a route from the 390 in the south connecting to one of the Buffalo exprways.

You may be right about that. My buddy is from Maryvale and takes that way, swears its faster than my 20A way. But, taking that way from OP will add the same 20 min on to your trip as this detour, because you have to go north (to take 90) to then go south (at 81).

Damn, Byrncliff is the 15 min mark...I know my 7 hour plus drive is over in 15 min when I hit Byrncliff. No more.

If you take the 90. Where are you headed? If its NYC, 90 is def not quicker.

I always head from NYC to Buffalo this way. Since I'll be headed up for the first time in a few months, what is this detour of which you speak? Why is it there and how long will it be there? I always take 20A b/c my folks bought a new place right near there in OP. I used to take 390 -> 63 ->20 when they lived in W. Seneca. Thanks.

Fine, can you sell some to me? I'll gladly buy. Then, when he really develops into the QB I think he's gonna be, I'll sell it back to you and happily buy the boat I've been wanting.

No way. You BUY as much of JP as you can get. He's cheap now, tho not as cheap as 2 weeks ago. IF you bought 2 weeks ago, you could prob lock in a little profit. You BUY JP and Alex Smith and you SHORT Daunte.

Outstanding news!!!
