Great reports.
What is the best 3 WR set you have seen with SJ in the slot?
I am guessing it will be Easley and Woods on the outside w/SJ in the slot and Goodwin and TJ coming in when they have long situations as which can happen on after penalties.
Can EJ & Tuel fake well? That was not one of Dan Marinio's strengths and he used to get his RBs demolished. Kolb appears to have mastered this part of QB package according to your reports.

Pot would be just like alcohol in washington state. you cant fire an employee because they had a beer at home. you can fire an employee because they came in drunk. Same logic would apply to pot. The NFL would not have a leg to stand on.
How much a gram for the stuff you are smoking to believe this?

I don't see why we didn't Franchise Levitre instead, given that ithey were up against Eugene Parker. I just think the Bill's were hoping to use the threat of the franchise tag to get Byrd to agree to a below market deal. Unfortunately i don't see any chance the Byrd stays with us long term.. IMO it probably plays out in one of these four ways:
- Bills sign him to a one year deal worth significantly more than the franchise tag (start the process all over again next year)
- Agree to a contract worth the franchise tag value but one that that prohibits the use of the franchise tag next year. Byrd reports week 1
- Byrd either reports week 8 (after the trade deadline) or at least by week 10 to ensure he acrrues another year of service (start the process all over again next year)
- Byrd is Traded
None of 1 thru 3 occurred - he signed his tenure in time to not be put on failure to perform list, was not promised to not be paid and Bills did not do something stupid like paying more than 1 year tender rare since that would automatically adjust how much the Bills need to pay Byrd next year when he is tagged again.
I guess this means you are speculating he will be traded since he signed tender?
- Bills sign him to a one year deal worth significantly more than the franchise tag (start the process all over again next year)

The reason why he signed was due to the benjamins not because he wanted to join the fun of the defense.
If a player is not signed within a certain number of days before start of season (do not remember exact number of days) a team can ask for a roster exemption for player - players get paid per game and if player is not on active roster then he does not get part of franchise tag money. He waited until last possible day.
Here is article backing this:

The timing of Byrd's signing should not come as a surprise. The move was made to give Byrd enough time to assure him of collecting his entire salary.Had he waited another week, the Bills - under NFL rules - could have been put in a position to ask the league for a one- or two-week roster exemption, during which time Byrd would not have been paid.
That option is now off the table, with Byrd having two weeks to prepare for the Bills' opener against New England on Sept. 8.

Arian Foster and Marshawn Lynch get about equal billing in it.
Links show same commercial but just slightly different commentary.

Question is did they do this commercial via Blue Screen, digital editing or what?

Christopher Lane was a 22-year-old baseball player for East Central University in Oklahoma. Friday, he was killed in a completely random act, according to police. Three boys, ages 15, 16 and 17 are in police custody for the slaying.
"They saw Christopher go by, and one of them said: 'There's our target,'" [Duncan police chief Danny] Ford said. "The boy who has talked to us said: 'We were bored and didn't have anything to do, so we decided to kill somebody.'"
The local district attorney is expected to file first-degree murder charges Tuesday in Stephens County District Court. It's not yet known if the three individuals will be tried as juveniles or adults.

I do not think there should be any question in this type of case. Try as adult.

Again, keep in mind that the #6 WR is not going to dress for the games, so he is not going to help the offense for his possession or help the ST as a gunner or returner. If they keep six and Easley or Hogan is #6, you may as well keep Rogers.
Incorrect. When a WR has a minor injury requiring rest and treatment he will be rested and made inactive and that 6th WR will need to play. All players on roster need to be able to play or should not be on 53 man roster.

An infinite number of chickens pecking on an infinite number of keyboards and we get this **** and not Hamlet...
One chicken pecking on one keyboard and we get this chicken **** and not Hamlet...
Which is worse? At least in other case there is a chance of not being **** on.

Seems to be a solid article showing pros and cons of Olympians. So many full time college football players fail in NFL despite claims that will be all Pros by NFL evaluators.

Sounds great, but $2 million to put up 9 little wood sheds? lol
It costs money for all of the cameras and high speed cables and such to ensure the cops can watch and ensure the ladies are safe.

The latter one would have been more impressive if she could have gotten ball over plate.

I just received this email from A.Hernandez this past Saturday..
Think Boston Police should bring you in for questioning and make sure they bring some of the TSA airport screeners to do body cavity search in case you were trying to get arrested and smuggle stuff to your buddy.

No video of encounter however; this is video of interview with Tim McGraw and his friendships with Brett Farve and Jim Kelly.

Bridge has been up since at least 2005 and now it is a concern for wheelchairs access? Is California Road any better for wheelchair access?
Do you think this is a coincidence with new 'Disney style' parking knowing many will choose to park elsewhere?
IMO the Bills will try to do everything they can to try to inconvenience those who do not want to pay to park.
Maybe the Bills should call $nyder for ideas on how to charge those who do not park there.

So how does one go about putting an Internet message board on suicide watch? Just curious...
Lots of anticipation and cameras like Geraldo Rivera's vault and absolutely nothing occurs like a 3 year old swearing he will hold his breath until he dies.

http://msn.foxsports.com/lacesout/are-the-bills-inching-closer-to-naming-ej-manuel-the-starting-qb/
Manuel was on the bench at the start of Friday’s preseason game against the Vikings as Buffalo let Kevin Kolb run with the first team. But Kolb, somewhat expectedly, had a Kevin Kolb-like performance. He did complete 13 of 21 passes for 111 yards, but threw an interception that bounced off receiver Marquise Goodwin’s hands.
Manuel finally got in the game in the third quarter and once again showed a steady hand. He directed a 12-play drive right that ended with him hitting Brad Smith for a 4-yard touchdown pass.
He played only one more series (three and out) before giving way to third-string quarterback McLeod Bethel-Thompson.
Evidently he does not pay attention to football more than starters for McLeod Bethel-Thompson is Vikings' 4th string QB.

I think smart phones make many people stupid ....
I think stupid people use smart phones because they think phones are smarter than them.

Practically across the street from the Big Tree on Abbott. It's the first house next to the lots across from the stadium.
PTR
Google Hammer's Lot. It is on Google's map.
or use this map:
-
They are talking in slow motion for me which is odd when talking about a fast paced offense.
-
He's got a lot of ability and he's been a busy kid. He won the Campbell Trophy, which means he is as smart as he is fast (ok, maybe not THAT smart) and he is now going to dedicate all his time to one sport. He was easily worth a 3rd rounder if he can stay healthy. He's already a better receiver than Hall or Hester.
I heard he was nominated but no winner is listed for 2013 yet, even on official trophy website.

Saw on way to work today: "I break brake for tailgaters" on a big, old truck which probably would not be damaged by a modern car hitting its bumper.
Saw truck again and I got a better view.

Interesting article but isn't there a baseball forum for articles like this or are there so few baseball fans that forum is gone?

Byrd is a lock when he shows up.
Lock IF he is not traded.

Jeff Tuel is more like to become Bills' version of Kurt Warner than Manning but I think he did a great job with what he was given.
EJ not ruled out for wk 1, Tuel competing for starting spot

Kolb's team actually won with him QBing playing against Patriots* last year.
Yes Pats* kicker did a wide left and other parts of Cardinals team were part of team - no player wins or loses a game.for football is a team sport.
While Tuel shows promise he should be relief only if EJ can not play.
