Ya know, thats not a half bad idea.

I couldn't agree with that more. They come up small when it matters most. Don't really know why, although the buck stops at TD, this is his team. And God help us if we don't re-sign Nate.

Its not the next couple of weeks that worries me, its the looming 5 game losing streak (@ OAK, @ NE, KC, @ SD, Car).

. I was kidding. Anyway, I can see how if you leader & best player is carried off the field, it can be a bit deflating. Heck, I've played on teams where that has happened, and it takes a moment or two to get your head back in the game. Not saying it should happen, but just that I can see it. Now the rest of that abomination yesterday....

I see, now its MY team!!

Actually, thats the one play I could excuse. The 59 yd run was on the very next play after TKO got hurt. I'll give a pass on that one. The other 350+ yards however....

BUMP

Pass that schit, man!!!

Unfortunately, that was our last playoff game. That is depressing...

I'll go with Bills 20 Falcons 10, D reasserts itself, WM runs well and gets a TD, ST is the difference as JP has good field position all day.

I don't know if we win, but I agree with the premise. Since 1990, the team that has led the league in rushing ATTEMPTS has been to the playoffs with at least 10 wins, every year but one. Stop the stupid pass happy offensive calls and run the friggin ball. I don't care if its Willis, Shaud or Jason Peters running the damn ball. The Steelers ran the ball 61% of the time last year. Is it possible that we hired the wrong Steelers offensive coach?

Utterly hysterical. Thank you, sincerely, for a great laugh at the end of the day!!

I'm suprised at this thread. Ninos, Bocce etc are all decent, but there'e the rest. The best is, by far, the one and only...La Nova. I used to drive from Orchard Park to the West Side of Buffalo, just to get La Nova. MMMMMMMM...La Nova......now I'm hungry & I live in a city where they serve pizza on cardboard

Back in DaDay, that was one of the funniest things I've read on here in a looong time. Thanks for a good Friday laugh!!

McFaddens is awesome. I'll be at the usual corner bar spot (easy access to out for a smoke) for most games. Just not the opener, cause I'll be in B'lo.

There are no leaders there. From the first moment that gov went on Larry King I said to my wife in all honesty, they're in trouble...listen to her. As someone who lived through 9/11 from almost as close a place as you could (across the street), the leadership showed by Rudy Giuliani pulled NYC through it. New Orleans needed a Rudy Giuliani and noone stepped up.

I'm not a big Bettman fan either, but from the perspective of a Sabres fan, he hasn't been that bad. He unequivocally stated that the team would stay in Buffalo after the Rigas bankruptcy and only sought bids from local buyers. Then he forces an economic system onto the NHL that makes it possible for Buffalo to compete at the same level as Detroit and New York. When you really think about it, going forward, without Bettman, hockey in Buffalo may have ceased to exist. Look at what baseball did to the Expos.

Payback from the hockey Gods for No Goal....lose one Cup on a cheap shot, get Crosby to pair with Vanek, Roy, Drury etc. and win 3 Cups in the next 7 years???? I'll take it!!

I would have a problem with him ending up on the friggin Rangers. Hello conspiracy!!

Good topic. Growing up, I worked as a waiter/bartender/cook my whole life. It paid for school. Thus, I can comment on this. I always tip waiter/waitresses/bartenders 20-25%. Its generally very appreciated, but then again, having been in the business, ex-restaurant folks are known as the best tippers. I find that if you go back to a place often, and tip well, the service is so much better. At a bar, your drink order is taken with no wait, you get a few free rounds a nite and in, restaurants, the waiter will make sure your food sdoesn't sit under a heat lamp, or you get the best cuts of prime rib or steak. As for declaring tips, its easy. Declare 10% of your total food & beverage sales for the nite. The micros machine (oor whatever system your place uses) will tell you that number at the end of the nite. For example, if you sell 700 bucks worth of food and drink, make sure your tips declared reads about 70 bucks. All credit card tips must be declared. If your credit card tips are 9-11% of total sales, you're fine, declare no cash tips. If not, make up the difference. With respect to curbside, I've never tried that. I don't think we have that in NY. I'm sure I'd tip, however. I tip cabbies, hotel maids, the barber etc. I just find that it puts a smile on someone's face, and your much more apt to get better service. The only tipping that annoys me, is the guy who hands out towels in the mens room of bars. Now, I'll generally tip him a buck the first couple times using the restroom if I'm in a bar for the whole nite. But after that, c'mon. Its like I'm paying to take a piss, which happens often when you are drinking Labatts all day for a Bills game at McFaddens, and I feel bad if I don't tip.

And for all you cat lovers.... http://www.addictinggames.com/kittencannon.html

Check it out. I got 14/16. http://www.briansbelly.com/quiz/

Yeah, it should have pressed. Like for your b-day or CHristmas. Give her an excuse. But before you ask for it, do a few special thing to make one or two of her fantasies come true. Then hit her with it a month or two before your b-day. Gotta strategize when you're thinking jackpot. Also, the "friend" who nailed her, not a "friend" if he knew that you guys had just broke up and were still upset about her. I wouldn't say anything, but the "friend" would not be invited over anytime soon.

In the early to mid 90s (before Private Parts) Howard was funny. I used to listen to him every day. He was crass, yes, but also funny. The show wasn't all about the lowest common denominator. Recently, the show has simply been unlistenable. The routine that used to be sharp and funny, has grown old and stale. I tried to listen and just shut it off. Same with the E! show. Not even worth watching or listening. Only on occasion, since his movie was released, has he had a sharp funny show. I basically stopped listening in the last 4+ years, only on occasion, and then only for a short time.

I know what you mean, j/k.
