    That was a nice super bowl preview. Jones is the next Brady. Not saying he has the talent to fill those shoes just saying he’s the next selected. And these two teams are the overwhelming favorite narrative for the NFL to bring into the playoffs and then super bowl. This was step one to make it an enticing matchup for Round 2. 

    Assume this account is a joke?   At least be a clever troll, geez.  

    Week 3: WFT at Bills

    I just locked in Wash at +9.5. Think the Bills win but don't cover. The Bills defense is playing very well and the offense... I see more of the same here. The Bills offense will try to establish a more balanced attack to take the pressure off Allen. I don't see a quick turn around for Allen. He won't make rookie mistakes, his legs will be valuable, he will make a few nice throws, and he will manage the game and the Bills to a victory. Imho, it's the defense that wins the game.

    Sorry for your loss.

    No. If you had success against a specific uniform in a specific stadium, you will naturally have more confidence the next time. That's basic psychology. I'm just saying it's a factor, not that it's necessarily a game changer.

    Am I interpreting this too literally?  Do you think past opponent QB performance against various jersey colors /styles should potentially be a factor in deciding which jerseys a team wears on game day?

    A moth goes into a podiatrist’s office, and the podiatrist’s office says, “What seems to be the problem, moth?”

    The moth says “What’s the problem? Where do I begin, man? I go to work for Gregory Illinivich, and all day long I work. Honestly doc, I don’t even know what I’m doing anymore. I don’t even know if Gregory Illinivich knows. He only knows that he has power over me, and that seems to bring him happiness. But I don’t know, I wake up in a malaise, and I walk here and there… at night I…I sometimes wake up and I turn to some old lady in my bed that’s on my arm. A lady that I once loved, doc. I don’t know where to turn to. My youngest, Alexendria, she fell in the…in the cold of last year. The cold took her down, as it did many of us. And my other boy, and this is the hardest pill to swallow, doc. My other boy, Gregarro Ivinalititavitch… I no longer love him. As much as it pains me to say, when I look in his eyes, all I see is the same cowardice that I… that I catch when I take a glimpse of my own face in the mirror. If only I wasn’t such a coward, then perhaps…perhaps I could bring myself to reach over to that cocked and loaded gun that lays on the bedside behind me and end this hellish facade once and for all…Doc, sometimes I feel like a spider, even though I’m a moth, just barely hanging on to my web with an everlasting fire underneath me. I’m not feeling good. And so the doctor says, “Moth, man, you’re troubled. But you should be seeing a psychiatrist. Why on earth did you come here?”

    And the moth says, “‘Cause the light was on.

    RIP Norm

    To sign up, you would need to enter a physical address and CC information though. Wouldn't that be a problem?

    That seemed odd to me also.  There are certainly situations where it would be valid but wondered if they ever audited some subset of those - unless they are ignoring AVS validation checks when they process for billing, and you could/should  put in a UK address in there as well (if your bank also allows it to go through on a bad AVS).  Can you use a pre-paid VISA card from CVS?  May be paranoid but that's what I start thinking about with this option.

    that’s odd, did Ditect TV tell you the tree blocks the signal, if so you should be able to get streaming.  I had a blockage at my address and am able to get the streaming service.  I’d calm them and explain the situation, that’s what I did a few years ago.  

    Hmmm.  I definitely called last year b/c we had moved in recently and tried to get DirecTV but couldn't.  Maybe it was just the person I spoke to, but she said we weren't eligible because our "area" or something to that effect wasn't listed in their system as a problem area.  I don't know if it's because our neighbors have DirecTV and it works fine for them.  I guess we could try getting it installed again first and somebody else could figure out how to get the signal to work for us. We'd just have to blow through a lot of stuff on the Fios DVR before we switch.  Good thing the season doesn't start Sunday...

    You can try this, it's legal but a lil shady :(

    • Make sure you have a good ISP, at least 100 down
    • Sign up for a PAID VPN service. They have way better servers and connections than the free ones. Make sure they have servers in Europe.
    • Configure VPN client to use a server outside the US, like maybe the UK or Italy. Log on. Verify it shows your IP is from whatever country you chose (VPN client should tell you).
    • While logged on purchase the NFL Game Pass international package (or whatever it's called now). This package allows for LIVE games to be viewed, not after the game is over.
    • Enjoy your favorite NFL team's game :)

    I am probably going this route this year.  Couldn’t get direct tv at my house because of tree blockage with dish (we actually would prefer direct tv in general for cable if it had worked).  They won’t allow streaming package for me because neighborhood overall considered accessible.   Last year used locast.org + plus ExpressVPN but locast just got shut down because of a court case.   So I guess I’ll try the vpn Europe game pass option this year.  I am happy to pay legit as an American in whatever package but they won’t let me.

    And yet, injuries including at the QB position are a fact of life, and those teams who have cultivated some decent depth will be unquestionably better off when the time comes…see Bills with Trubisky, who arguably will be a starter again next year somewhere. Hostetler & Foles even won Super Bowls as backups who had to step in during those years—to say nothing of Reich, who engineered the greatest comeback in NFL history as a career backup…

    Right , having that much confidence in your rookie QB in addition to the apparent confidence that he couldn’t possibly get injured, that you don’t care about signing a backup with apparently any value? It makes me wonder if they have a weird mutation of Peterman overconfidence syndrome but realize pats* are always right , me not so much.  So I will try to let Ghost bask in his glory for the time being anyway.  

    Best Wings in Buffalo

    I tried Duff's on this trip as well and they weren't very good. The traditional mild Buffalo wings were completely sauceless.

     

    Wingnutz are hands down the best, even if you want traditional Buffalo sauce. They offer that (Buffalo Mild), but the best are the Wingnutz Mild. They were ranked the #1 wing in the world. You have to order a day or more in advance though. They usually sell out 5 minutes after opening, if not before opening.

     

    To clarify, what I'm saying is that if you just ordered sauceless wings, Wingnutz are the best. I think that's what you really wanted to know. They are huge and they have a perfect crunch.

    Not sure.  I have never ordered mild wings at Duffs but am good w/ their medium to hot.  Wingnutz sounds like if I want to order wings w/o sauce that are huge & crispy, and I am getting them takeout, and at home putting my own sauce on them, and they stay crispy during the car ride, that sounds great?  Not everything stays crispy during the car ride, especially when you order a bucket....how do you order a bucket to go and keep them from getting ruined b/c of the steam?  That's what I would like to know.
