Does anyone have any info on how an out-of-town Bills fan might buy a copy of the Buffalo News special section on SB25 that was to have been published the other day ? I looked over the Buffalo News website and didn't see it available for purchase... Thanks.

I'm all for wishing Bledsoe the best of luck... he's a class guy, and while I thought him a relatively-inneffective QB in Buffalo, I don't wish him any ill... I just never "got into" Peerless... A little too showboaty for me, but that's just one man's opinion... Having said that, I can think of very few teams I wish worse on than the Cowboys...

Thanks - I'll check it out...

Since I lost Empire Sports on DirecTV, I have no outlet for Bills (and Sabres) info, other than the web... Is anyone aware of any of the WNY radio/TV stations podcasting their talk (or even news) shows ? Or even any "amatuer" podcasts ? Thanks !

Ooh... forgot about that one... a classic from my youth !

I have, in fact, made a beach CD... It included many of the songs mentioned above... A few others: Brown Eyed Girl - Van Morrison or Jimmy Buffett Jump in the Line - Harry Belafonte (although he has many other songs that would do) Under the Boardwalk - someone mentioned the original (The Drifters), but John Mellancamp also does a killer version... Sittin On The Dock of the Bay - Otis Redding Smooth - Santana with Rob Thomas Enjoy !

Hercules Montserrat

out of buttwipes.

I swear - I saw this as a headline, and read it three times, and STILL thought they were talking about Rich Gannon... Either way...

ok - Now I'm sorry I asked... In any case, I believe he can play both RB and FB... and we have a need for a backup at both positions... (I'm a big fan of Joe Burns, being a GA Tech fan, but he's NOT a FB)...

How about it ? A fourth round pick seems like a decent cost... Najeh Davenport ?

It seems like, even in the first round, there's about a 50/50 chance of QBs of turning out good-great... If we look at recent drafts when more than 1 QB was picked in Round 1: 2003: Carson Palmer - so far, decent Byron Leftwich - should be good, at least Kyle Boller - not shown much Rex Grossman - who knows 2002: David Carr - Could be good Joey Harrington - Incomplete Patrick Ramsey - Ok. 1999: Tim Couch - Out Of Football Donovan McNabb - Great Akili Smith - OOF Daunte Culpepper - Great Cade McNown - OOF 1995: Steve McNair - Great Kerry Collins - Good Even back to 1983: John Elway - Great Todd Blackledge - Bust Jim Kelly - Great Tony Eason - Decent Ken O'Brien - Decent Dan Marino - Great You may quibble with some of my individual assessments, but the fact remains... it's a bit of a crapshoot...

Appreciate the info, but man... that's gotta be a mistake... Neither Williams or Jennings are rated higher than those 99 ? That can't be right... Jason Gildon ? I seem to remember we cut him... Travis Minor ?

Ok, so IF Clements leaves... Who's the new OC ? Wyche ?

We are FAR from a rational society when it comes to anything having to do with lawyers... A lady at my wife's company was habitually late, leaving early, long lunches, etc... All performance reviews were horrible, and multiple attempts to provide a "plan" to improve her performance met with no success... The final straw was when they found her smoking pot in the stairwell at work (Did I mention she was 6 months pregnant?!)... Long story short - they fired her, then got sued for wrongful termination... As always, and you know they count on this, it was cheaper to settle than to fight it... Don't assume anything... get your company lawyer to help plan anything you intend to do...

I third (or fourth) the suggestion for Dell... Have bought several, and have always been very pleased... Good prices... Good support... If you decide to go that way, go to Dell.com and sign up for some of their email newsletters, especially the one for Small Business... You'll get email "coupons" once every week or two, which can make a good deal better... Typically coupons might be $100 or $200 off certain systems, or 15-20% off of certain systems... You can often also combine that offer with an offer of free shipping, etc... You can build a killer rig for $1000 - a very good one for < $600. You can also check out sites like Fatwallet Look in their Hot Deals forum - there are always postings in there of some configuration that is dirt cheap... Also, with "Black Friday" coming up (day after Thanksgiving), there is always the potential for deals at retailers... Good luck !

Now THAT is funny...

"Freddie" Smith is on the practice squad (7th round pick this year). We also just signed WR Kahlil Hill to the practice squad as well, but I would think it unlikely he'd be promoted before Freddie.

As an aside... There's a huge sale at Amazon on some TV series on DVD... They have the first year of: 24, Buffy, simpsons, Futurama, Roswell, Angel, & King of the Hill... All are $14.99... Regularly up to $59.99... More info here: http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/messagevie...y&keyword1=simp
