Alge Crumpler....because I benched him for McMicheal this week...Oops Still can squeeze out a win if Tiki outscores TO by 2 points

Hmm...apparently the WEEK after we lost to them ESPN still thinks we are the better team. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/powerranking (Note...forgot about the packers, they deserve a mention in this thread as well)

Yeah, you have lost it. First off, buffalo is better than houston. Secondly, where the heck is Tennessee? Detroit? Cleveland? My Bottom 5: 32. Oakland 31. Tennessee 30. Cleveland 29. Houston 28. Detroit Then Buffalo/Miami/Arizona in no particular order.

The Patriots will be without TE Daniel Graham, OT Nick Kaczur and C Russ Hochstein for today's game in Buffalo. None of the three traveled with the team to Buffalo. The loss of Graham bumps TE Benjamin Watson and TE David Thomas up the depth chart.

Woah woah woah..... There is a HUGE difference between cindy sheehan and Kevin Tillman. I disagree with Kevin Tillman (at least in this writing) alot, but I can respect his opinion due to the way he presents it. He did it in a dignified manner worthy of being heard. Get back to me when Tillman gets forcibly removed from a State of the Union address and tries to block entry to UN offices. Get back to me when he starts praising Hugo Chavez. And let me know when he starts going to foriegn contries and bashes America. I might be more inclined to call him a lunatic at that point. There is a huge difference between sheehan and Tillman at this point.

Glad you see it our way.

You need to address it properly in free agency. Bennie Anderson, Tutan Reyes and Melvin Fowler are not my idea of addressing the OLINe.

Are we looking at the same OT who made Drew Bledsoe better, or the same OT who is making Aaron Walters better? Or the same Vernon Carey who is making Cullpepper/Harrington better in Miami. The same Bryant McKinny who is making Brad Johnson look like Joe Namath? Point is, yes our OLine is BAD... yes, we need to fix it. Yes Joe Thomas should be a good fix. But he is still only 20% of the line. And there is no guarentee he will be a stud. If Calvin Johnson is not a top 5 WR in the league his rookie year I will be AMAZED. IMO, CJ should be the #1 overall pick. And if he is there, the bills need to take him and address the OL during Free Agency and in rounds 2 and 3. You dont pass up reggie bush, and you dont pass up calvin johnson IMO.

Calvin johnson by far. The best WR i have seen in college in a long time. He would make a great compliment to evans. Then pick all OL for the rest of the drafta s far as I care...

Eh....the real pilots are in the navy anyway..

Is Phillip Rivers available?

Wouldnt be suprised to see a late round QB....Losman is showing he can play (inconsitently granted...). But I think Holcomb will be gone. Losman/Nall/Rookie next year.

Yeah prolly not. IF (I stress IF) clements is traded today or tomorrow, I woulndt mind grabbing this guy. He has to be better than our other options at CB for this year. As a long term solution...no thanks.

Look around. Many teams are way under the cap. This is due to the new collective bargaining agreement and the resulting increase in the cap. There was an excess of money last year. Most teams were restrained in using it. We could have given monster contracts to below average players, but instead we played it smart and stood pat.

I dont know.... Our Needs next year (as of now) 1. OL (Undisputed #1 need) 2. DL (Undisputed #2 need) 3. CB (Clements leaving, need someone to fill in here) 4. WR (Evans is good, PP/JR are good #3s. Need a big guy...) 5. LB (Aging, need depth) I can see us taking an OL or WR in the first round perhaps, but other then OL, the major need is back on Defense. TE is also a need, but clearly we wont take one in the first round, and after that its a crapshoot. Might as well wait til round 5 or 6.

Uh... Phillip Rivers...Nope Tori Holt...Nope Tiki Barber...Nope Roy Williams...Nope Lee Evans...Not Really Frank Gore...Not Really Crumpler...Nah I guess it was stover...

Umm...yeah. Complain about it. 6 of the first 7 games are in HD and you choose the first week we are not in HD to complain.

New Stadium....

If by Pro Bowler you mean pro bowler like Dick Weber is a pro bowler, not like Champ Bailey is a pro bowler, then I would have to defer to your superior knowledge of the hardwood. Otherwise...I think you are greatly mistaken.

So Many inept teams? Well for One, they play in a division with the Lions, Packers and Vikings... Take a look at the bills schedule Jets (x2) Detroit Houston Green Bay Minnesota Miami (x2) Tennessee Not too shabby ourselves.

Thanks for posting that. First time I have seen the jon stewart post 911 monolauge. I remember watching Letterman that night. Much of the same. And yes, we all need to remember that day. I know I do. I remember being on a military installation, being directed to leave work early. Coming home to an empty house, and (being new to the area) looking through the phonebook for a church to attend services that evening. We must never forget. But, like Jon Stewart said, we are free, and therefore, we have already won.

Few things you guys are missing. 1) The bill passed was NOT an anti-internet gambling bill. The bill passed was a bill for Port Security. This was a major peice of legislation, and one with unanimous bipartisan support. At the last minute, a rider was attached to this bill for internet gambling. Obviously nothing to do with port security. This is why the bill was passed unanimously in the senate. Also good proof of the need for a line item veto. 2) The legislation itself does not appear to limit online gambling. What it does do is limit how funds get transfered to and from such sites, and makes it difficult to transfer funds without an off-shore bank account. 3) Internet gambling IS ALREADY illegal. However, poker is widely considered a game of skill, and is typically exempt from such restrictions. I suspect a legal battle may ensue over this "game of skill" Make no doubt about it, this will kill the online poker industry (at least in the US). Wont be long until sites stop dealing with american consumers. Pathetic.

Most of my team showed up as well. Randy Moss being the exception...only 1 catch (for 5 yards and a TD). Still in trouble though....thanks to FRIGGIN ISSAC BRUCE

Very interesting. I find it particularly interesting that 12 of the top 13 highest taxed states voted for Kerry in 2004 and the 24 fewest taxed states all voted for Bush. Not exactly sure what it means...just thought it was interesting

Sweet another week of HD!
