This question is for a techie, a priest, or anyone else in the know: Adobe Flash has started to act up for some reason. Videos stream fine until I hit the fullscreen option, then they become choppy, really choppy, with audio out of sync as well. I've tried everything, including unchecking the "enable hardware acceleration" option, but nothing seems to work. Tried uninstalling so I could reinstall, but I can't get rid of the thing! All programs that use flash, including the browser, have been closed prior to the uninstall attempt, but after restarting the computer, Adobe Flash is still there! What's going on here? Is Adobe Flash possessed?

When Vince Young was in the game yesterday, I kept reminding myself, "this is the guy who singlehandedly willed his Univ of Texas team to a championship. This guy was the third overall pick in the draft, embarrassed the Bills when he was a Titan, went to multiple Pro Bowls, and had a bright future ahead of him. This is that guy." Man, he has fallen off.

I live in NYC, so unfortunately every time I turn on ESPN radio, it's "home of the Jets." I've been hearing over and over how Coples had been struggling in camp and was demoted as a starter in favor of some guy named DeVito. Yes, he is looking better now and I referenced that, but his work is coming against 2nd teamers, not starters. Maybin was also all the rave during camp, but surprise, surprise, once the pads went on, he seemed to disappear. It's probably because he's turned sideways... I watched Glenn against Orakpo and didn't come away with your sentiments. He didn't struggle at all! He held his own. I have the game on Preseason Live as well, so feel free to point out the quarter and time where he specifically struggled. Fitzpatrick was sacked once, but that was from the other defensive end, after he had nowhere to go with the ball. So because no NFL team considered him to be a first round pick, means his talent level doesn't equate to a first round pick?! Some of you guys need to get away from where a player is picked in the draft, or however many teams passed him up. It means absolutely NOTHING.

Bet the Jest wish they selected Glenn over Coples. Coples struggled mightily early, but is starting to turn it around (albeit against 2nd teamers). Meanwhile, they have a turnstile - a much bigger problem than DE - at RT named Wayne Hunter. Poor Jest. J-E-S-T Jesters! Jesters! Jesters!

What will be the reaction around here if Fitz struggles mightily, or goes 7-10 for 28 yds again? (numbers before the MIN Jones TD) If he fails to generate any sort of passing game against the Steelers?

I heard on ESPN Radio this morning that Quentin Coples was struggling greatly and that DeVito (whoever that is), will remain the current starter until Coples, "figures it out".

Can't remember who it was, but a long time Gamecocks fan had comments that Gilmore was solid, but unspectacular. Probably not worth a top 10 pick, but probably wouldn't bust either. It was encouraging to hear Gailey and Nix say he has far exceeded their expectations.

The angry Redskin Indian made me laugh.

Let's get real here... Chris Kelsay is no Phil Hansen. You say he hasn't had a dominating DE on the other end of the line...? I agree. That Aaron Schobel guy was a real bum. Not dominant by any means, but when the old #94 was playing opposite Kelsay, you never saw #90 in, or around the QB. Chris Kelsay is just a guy, folks. That's all. Not a difference maker, or a factor. Does he perform his job to the best of his abilities? Yes. Does he have limitations? Yes. Should he be cut? Assuming the Bills go into the season with 4 DEs, he should get the ax ONLY if he doesn't prove better than his competition: Mario Williams, Mark Anderson, Spencer Johnson, and Shawne Merriman. Of course the team could keep 5 DEs and 4 DTs, that is also a strong possibility.

I agree with Bell about his play being "passive"... He often allowed DEs or LBs to "pass" him.

Hey TGreg, notes would be much appreciated! If you (or anyone else) needs notes on one of your projects, I'm pretty astute in that area as well. Usually do script swaps on Done Deal...

Thanks Fong. That's only the first 5 pages! There's much more where that came from...

Hello Bills nation. I'll be querying a Sit-com pilot shortly, seeing if I can get TV Agents/Managers to bite. Before sending it out, I want to make sure I've hit every area of comedy possible! So if you have the chops, the time, and the interest, I would appreciate a read, as well as a little feedback. Here's the info: TITLE: JustUS COURT GENRE: Situational Comedy LOGLINE: Francis P. Crotchett, judge of the hottest show on daytime television, takes no prisoners inside his courtroom. No case is too big, no story too complex, no personality too challenging... until he goes home. SYNOPSIS: Judge Crotchett is old, ornery, and quips like a comedian. According to daytime television ratings, he's also lovable. In his small claims courtroom, justice is served the right way: swiftly and fairly. For all his knowledge and success in settling court cases, he struggles where his domineering personality is needed the most: the Crotchett Estate. Forced to juggle a neighbor from hell, a paparazzi stalker, a precocious, demon seeded granddaughter, and his own problematic "adult" son and daughter, maintaining order within, as well as outside his household, proves quite challenging. Fortunately, he has a French maid, a Bailiff, and a loving wife who pitches in from time to time, to ease his burden of troubles. Sometimes though, these three are not enough... *Yes, I do have writing skills! To alleviate your worries, I've included the first five pages: OVER BLACK: JustUS COURT Case No. CSM-01-00001 Chase Ryder vs Ophelia Gentry OPENING STATEMENT FROM BLACK: INT.

JUDGE CROTCHETT SILENCE! (TO OPHELIA) Madam, have you seen these estimates? PM me an email address and I'll send you the pilot episode... By the way, I have no idea why that text came out in Rainbow colors...?

Because they haven't. Quite often Kelsay is blocked (successfully) by a tight end.

We trade 1st rounders for 4th+ rounders (Lynch 4/5; Evans 4; McCargo 4... oops, he failed the Colts physical), meanwhile NE* trades old players for 1st rounders (Bledsoe 1; Deion Branch 1; Richard Seymour 1; Matt Cassell 2 *declined the Chief's original offer for their 1st round/3rd overall, due to inflated rookie salaries).

I've never seen him play, but everything I've heard about Perry is that he's a fast twitch athlete. The most athletic DE in this draft, as a matter of fact. If you mean he has a low motor, then that is different than slow twitch. Slow twitch = endurance athletes (joggers, cyclists, etc) Fast twitch = explosive athletes (sprinters, jumpers, etc). The thing that concerns me about Upshaw and Coples, is that neither is explosive. Both are very strong, yes, but neither are a threat to walk around the LT (like a Von Miller type). I don't know who he is, but we need that player who is capable of beating the LT within two seconds after the snap. If we are drafting a DE, then Upshaw isn't the answer. If a full time DE is going to be 6'1 273, then that player BETTER be in the mold of a Dwight Freeney!

So, if we were ranking the All Star Game for the four major sports, would it play out in this way? 1) MLB 2) NHL 3) NBA 4) NFL

I agree in full with this writer. Might as well make the Pro Bowl two hand touch below the waste, or eliminate the game entirely. The most watched sport in the US, has BY FAR the worst all star game. Something needs to change. Article Cited

Yes, because the events of the game would've unfolded EXACTLY as they did before, leading to a 49-28 score. C'mon man, you can't be serious. I'm pretty sure the Bills would've lost, but NO ONE knows what would've happened if the Bills had scored on that drive. At that point in the game, the score was BUF 21 NE 14, it would be a different game if the score became BUF 28 NE 14. What would the final score be? I don't know and YOU don't know. No one knows... Unless they claim to be clairvoyant.

If we don't make the playoffs with that schedule, then we won't make the playoffs for the next 5 years at the very least...

If only the Bills had a crystal ball that told them which QBs in this draft will succeed and the round they were taken in. 12 years without reaching the postseason?! It's time we find our Tom Brady...

Would've felt better if he was at least a 2 time all Conference SEC selection. I hated the Troup pick then and even more so now.

The Merriman reference is inaccurate. He wasn't an UFA. The Bills claimed him off waivers and there were believed to be 3-4 other teams interested in claiming him if he made it past the Bills (Dolphins included).
