  1. I'm moving Thursday and DirectTV came out to the new address last week and was unable to install a dish b/c of line of sight issues.  Supposedly in the next couple days my address will show as eligible for the streaming service.  I was wondering for people who use that service, are there recommendations for what device to use?  My Smart TV appears to be too old to get the app, so was wondering about firestick, roku stick, etc and whether you could pause / rewind etc.

    First. The Bills are the Only team in New York.

     

    Second, who the heck does this guy think he is that he can weasel his thoughts and ideas upon the Giants and Bills

     

    Let their owners do what they want, don’t try to play some moral high ground

     

    you listen to the owners and their rules at work. Freedom of speech, Press, assembly Doesn’t apply lol

    He wrote a letter.  You are free to write a letter too.  Settle down.

    9-7 Make the playoffs off a fluke play by a ginger QB. We still have no QB, an aging RB and offensive line. Cant get no pressure on QB from front 4. Only bright spot is secondary and head coach/GM. Just as far away as we have been since the 90's. 

    Screw off dude.   Amidst years of misery yes it was another crappy day - after an incredible week of gratitude and excitement and joy and charity.   Let's be the bigger people and focus on the latter part and for now  just have hope for the future.

    History and reputation.

     

    History has shown that all sanctions against NE are way over the top and more severe than any other teams. The NFL has even manufactured "scandals" all in the name of appeasing other owners and attempting to bring NE back to the pack. Suh, Burfict, Finnegan, the Pollards, do/did this game in and game out. Gronk has no history of this type of dirty play. 

     

    It was a dirty play and Gronk should and will get fined.

    I haven't posted in like a decade but please go away.  

  5. I haven't spent a ton of time here recently, but I'm truly amazed that nobody has posted "Dooooooooooooomed" as a response to this post. is that no longer considered the epitome of the witty retort? in any case, i'm impressed. keep up the creativity, folks.

  6. Remember this post it will make you feel good

    You're awesome. Your 25th post since 2002 and it seems most of your posts are extremely optimistic and occur in the preseason before reality hits. Thanks Mickey in Rochester. I honestly do appreciate the optimism at the onset. At least you back off and don't spend the entire months of September & October posting "dooooooooooooomed" whenever anyone doubts a Super Bowl appearance.

  7. Send a real message and boycott this station any chance you get.

     

    That is what I have done.

     

    Seems some of you who B word about them probably still eat up all that crap network has to offer.

    seriously. if the pain outweighs the pleasure, then stop watching. otherwise quit bitching about it. i don't watch espn, i don't watch the view, i don't watch the today show, i don't watch bill o'reilly. you won't need to start threads complaining about them when you have no idea what they're showing. espn isn't going to discover your message board post and switch their format to please you...so accept what they do or change the channel.

  8. Kickball is too complicated for tall people.

    aren't the rules of kickball basically like baseball but you kick the ball instead of hitting it with a bat? if kickball is the lowest form of sport in your mind, can baseball be more than a notch above? do you post antagonistic statements in all the baseball threads about how it resembles lowly kickball?

     

    i liked when rick reilly went to a baseball game with a stopwatch:

     

    Time of this A's-Yankees game: 3 hours, 15 minutes.

     

    Time the baseball was actually in play, including pitches, batted balls, foul balls, pickoff attempts, relays, throws to bases and anything else even Bob Costas might consider actual sporting activity (and I was being generous with the stopwatch): 12 minutes, 22 seconds.

  9. 2.7/5 ratings/share for game 5...beat the Lost rerun, head-to-head... :rolleyes:

    re. world cup -

     

    ABC's broadcast of three matches Friday through Sunday delivered an average rating of 2.8

     

    thanks for the rolleyes, too bad I block those stupid emoticon thingies...

     

    And I like the sabres, I just got annoyed by ACor's anti-soccer rants...point being, just because the majority of the U.S. isn't obsessed with hockey, doesn't make it worthless. Same w/ soccer. I don't try to debate whether NASCAR would be better off if Kobe Bryant joined up. Get a grip folks.

  10. That is a backhanded slap by ESPN. The Bee was on ABC (their sister station) on national TV to 300 Million homes. Game 7 was on the bike racing network and broadcast in about 30 million.

    but why was it on the bike racing network? because no one in the country gives a crap about it.

  11. My neighbors in the apartment next door probably called the cops on me. 

     

    When Pominville scored, I yelled and then I grabbed an empty Powerade bottle, started pounding it on my computer desk, and then whipped it off the wall right in front of me.  (And, remember, this is in Texas where no one knows hockey exists and there is no reason to celebrate anything.)

    you're worried that your neighbors called the cops because you created noise with an empty plastic bottle? and I thought they named amherst the safest neighborhood...

  12. Geez, Joe, I thought you were a miserable SOB sober, but you've managed to kick it up a notch....Is this how you always "celebrate" weekends alone? <_<

    i welcome the idea of having a poster like JSP have a dedicated thread for himself as he posts his thoughts on life in increasing degrees of intoxication. since the off the wall board became an oft-ignored separate entity, we rarely get to witness the downward self-destructive spiral of members in altered states posting about something other than mock drafts. keep it up! we've all been there. i am there currently as a matter of fact...
