  1. Blows my mind how Vegas gets inside scoops because the line moved 2 points today. Someone was dialed into the Bills' MDs
  2. That's a gross mischaracterization of the neocon thesis as it was laid out in the '90s. When you read the papers put out at that time, they warned about a demographic and economic crises in the Arab world, that coupled with dynastic despotic families would surely drag the world into a global conflict. It's easy to criticize the events now that we know how they unfolded, but imagine a world with Bashar & the Mullahs sitting across Auday & Qusay playing with their toys. Kim Jong would have nothing on the destruction those two could unleash. If you care to take an objective look at everything that transpired between 2007 & 2009, you'd see that the strategy was finally starting to pay off after a horrific start. Iraq was on its way to stability, Iran's despots were on the verge of toppling and a wave of reform was sweeping the region. The only thing that could go wrong was for America to elect the one man who stopped all of that cold, and put things in reverse. Kind of like putting Rex Ryan in charge of a team on the verge of the playoffs. (BTW, I'm not to big to admit that I was very wrong about the Rex hire, because after a while the evidence is too overwhelming to think that he was anything but an incompetent buffoon)
  3. I've never heard them lumped together. Usually "Tonawanda" on its own refers to the town, while people specify City & North
  4. Oh, I thought he was some Harvard alum, or whatever
  5. Is the grandfather some kind of celebrity?
  6. Was that the game where Marshawn rediscovered his mojo? I recall he was pedestrian for them during the season until that game
  7. BTW, the Ravens fans who are complaining about the phantom holding that scratched Weddle's INT are silent about the blatant PI that would have given Colts another 4 downs at the 10.
  8. It was HD for the technology at the time, and qualified under the definition. A friend worked at CBS at the time, and we went to the 57th St studios to watch the broadcast (who had a HD TV then?). We all remarked that the cameramen needed to repoint the focus for the 16x9 frame. They were still centered on the LOS, which left big open spaces behind the RBs, instead of capturing more of the defensive formations.
  9. How the hell does any coach put Patrick DiMarco on all hands team?
  10. Of course it wasn't Demarco. Kyle held on to the ball
  11. Separated at birth?
  12. Yeah, but is it worth a comp pick ?
  13. The new tunnel will be right next to the existing tube heading into Penn Station. In the meantime, the Portal Bridge is much more dire to fix. There are few places in the US where an upgrade is more desperately needed. You’re right, the speed & execution of Tappan Zee rebuild is miraculous by NYS standards.
  14. That’s a gross misrepresentation of the neocon policy, perpetuated by the Obama fanboys who believed in the Sally Field foreign policy. Meanwhile, the world is getting back to where it was in 2009, meaning on the verge of the elimination of the axis of evil. You think these things just happen out of the blue in a vacuum?
  15. Can someone explain why a Christie staffer may be going to jail for getting preferential treatment from United, while this is normal for Dems?
  16. Kind of blows a hole in that “Hillary is a neocon” theory, doesn’t it?
  17. Christie killed the original plan 8 yrs ago. This fight is about the latest proposal to fix the corridor, and it will be resolved, because if that tunnel fails, I don’t think Trump would be safe setting foot in Manhattan.
  18. Then you should definitely check out The Roots in concert. The best Space & Drums I heard since Nevilles joined the Dead on stage at Rich in ‘89
  19. Please describe the collusion in detail.
  20. Or simply he can be the Peter Warrick to DeAndre Hopkins’ Anquan Boldin. (Or Laveranues Coles for a bigger burn)
  21. It’s obvious that your reading comprehension is on par with your QB analyses.
  22. Read my post again
