What good is boycotting going to do when season ticket holders have already "purchased" their preseason tickets?

I've gotten single jerseys from Dhgate where the total cost with shipping was $40. You've just gotta shop around.

If you think there's going to be a massive re-design of NFL jerseys just because Nike is taking over, you're sorely mistaken. The NFL isn't going to bow down to an apparel company.

Its because the game cut jerseys are often sleeveless. Where do you put sleeve stripes on sleeveless jerseys?

"Thats it? You're just drifting slightly to the left!"

Hopefully she has to go back to prison for the other charges. In there, if some other inmate gets their hands on her, so be it.

We've been hearing about it non-stop down here in florida. Most of us were hoping she'd get convicted and cooked. Scumbag psycho B word killed her kid but skated by, much like OJ. The trial was a circus, and her defense attorneys didn't try to prove her innocence. They just tried to muck up the waters enough so she wouldn't get convicted. All in all, the little Caylee actually got off lucky. She's much better off in another place as opposed to suffering growing up with that family. She wouldn't have stood a chance.

I was at the NASCAR race in Daytona on saturday. There were plenty of cans of Miller sitting around there. Perhaps thats why NASA put the Cape Canaveral launch center so close.

I find it slightly amusing that here we are debating a Pennsylvania food delicacy in a thread about something that was delayed because the buttplug representative from Pennsylvania dragged his feet and wanted nothing to do with Independence.

They have banana peels and Miller High Life (in a can) on Mars?

Well, we all have our flaws.

Don't know what you're talking about, but i got some old HS friends, and my entire gf's family is from philly, and they ALL say that no matter who you like, you eat at Geno's or Pat's. Tony Luke's is an abomination of a cheesesteak, and he's nothing of a knockoff imposter who makes absolute crap. Recommending tony luke's is akin to telling someone to skip Duff's or Anchor Bar and go to Buffalo Wild Wings for wings.

No, but how else are you going to power a flux capacitor?

Agreed.

Agreed. Pegula is the best kind of manager/owner. He basically went to the hockey department and said, "What tools do you need to make this team better? Get what you feel we need and send me the bill." With your obviously unlimited hockey wisdom, why don't you enlighten us again on how you think the vezina is simply awarded to the goalie with the lowest GAA.

What does the NFL award the Grey Cup for?

Got it. Flutie has won nothing at the NFL level.

No one has said that simply running and blowing the entire cap on 15 high priced free agents is going to work wonders. But signing a player or 2, or even 1 good player can benefit a team greatly. It supplements the draft. Not signing anyone is akin to sitting on your hands and making no effort to better the team. You look at who is on the market, and find a high-end player or 2 that can benefit the team, and you go get them. You really think if the Bills signed Nnamdi Asomugha it would hurt the team more than help it?

Soupy wanted (and got) a ridiculous contract. There was nothing wrong with what the sabres did regarding him. We couldn't keep everyone and stay within the cap.

This is a dangerous time for Wilson and the Bills. It could get very ugly if/when Pegs/Regier make a huge splash in FA for the Sabres and the Bills sit on their hands. When you have one owner willing to do whatever it takes to win and another who doesn't seem to be willing, things could get bad in a hurry.

The only players the lockout really affects is the UDFAs. Those guys get a chance to show their stuff in the rookie camps, and can ctach the coach's eye, or he can see how to use them. With none of that, the UDFAs from this year's class are going to need to perform out of the gate in training camp, and won't have the benefit of that early one-on-one time with the coaching staff.

Is there a message board clairitin we can take to make the day go by easier?

Yeah, but at this point you're just background noise. We wouldn't notice you until you're gone and that constant droning went away. Then it would just seem awfully quiet around here.

No big deal. With salaries + new bonuses/guarantees, thats not a difficult threshhold to hit.
