  1. They do have "Tightwad Hill" for Cal Bears games
  2. I don't think that matters. Virgil's post had about 3x as many words, but they are coherent and make sense.
  3. And all this time I thought it was AJ who was going to be fined
  4. I may have been there in a former life...
  5. In 1996, the City of San Francisco had a vote for the residents to allow the city to build a new mall and football stadium at the Candlestick Site. It passed. Some council members fought the vote the residents approved. The 49ers got sick of waiting, and built their facilities in Santa Clara. Then they just went ahead and built Levi's Stadium at the same site. Got tired of the infighting and waiting. Kinda like the same thing going on with the A's in Oakland.
  6. Why do you think the 49ers moved to Santa Clara? That's where the teams practice facilities and offices were. The players used to drive to Santa Clara, and there would be a bus convoy up the 101 to Candlestick. Passed it many times on a Sunday evening.
  7. Excuse me, I'll be right back...
  8. Great name for a punk band
  9. All I gotta say is I could listen to, and look at, Suzy Kolber any time, all the time. But those who are commenting on her voice, I just think back to the Fabulous Sports Babe. She was great on the radio. Very knowledgeable. Listened to her quite often. I never once thought her voice was nails on a chalkboard. So I don't think people saying they can't listen to her has nothing to do with her gender. It's just she doesn't have a voice that is listenable. Some of us don't.
  10. This is just my viewpoint. No links or such. When I lived in California working as a landscaper with my ex, one of our clients was a very highly respected CPA. Before Eddie DeBartolo bought the team, the team was owned by Victor Morabito. In 1963 at age 45, he died suddenly of a heart attack. His wife Jane took control of the team until 1977. Our client was the head CPA of the 49ers during Jane Morabito's ownership. Jane went to Andy (Name not changed, that was his name) to ask how they could generate more revenue for the team. The first thing he suggested was to make suite owners pay for game tickets for the seats in the suites. He was met with resistance obviously, but the suite owners agreed, and this quickly spread throughout the league. So in a way, that could have been the pre-curser for PSLs. If suite owners had to pay for seats to view the games in the suites they rented from the team, then season ticket holders should pay for the right to purchase their seats.
  11. Brady doesn't bother me. Hellachick is the devil incarnate.
  12. Bills - 34 That team that used to be the Redskins - 10
  13. https://www.nfl.com/news/super-wild-card-weekend-to-include-monday-night-game Beginning this postseason, one of the six playoff games on Super Wild Card Weekend will take place on a weekday. The NFL announced Friday that, beginning with the 2021 season, Super Wild Card Weekend will conclude with a game on Monday night. Super Wild Card Weekend is scheduled from Jan. 15-17, 2022. The NFL expanded the playoffs last season for the first time since 1990, adding a third wild card team in each conference. The expansion was the genesis for Super Wild Card Weekend, featuring playoff tripleheaders on Saturday and Sunday. Beginning this postseason, Super Wild Card Weekend will feature a pair of games on Saturday (4:35 p.m. and 8:15 p.m. ET), three on Sunday (1:05 p.m., 4:40 p.m., and 8:15 p.m. ET), and the finale on Monday (8:15 p.m. ET).
  14. Thank you Shady for what you did on the field in Buffalo. Congrats on a great career!
  15. The NCAA College Basketball 1st and 2nd rounds have had good success in Buffalo. If we had a Downtown stadium with a roof, I'm thinking Final 4.
  16. Has my vote as post of the year!
  17. If they go with a Red helmet and all white uni's, could we call them the Buffalo Used Q-Tips?
  18. But tell us how you really feel
