Beauty is in the eye of the beholder- but I will say Mrs. Wilfork is a pretty cool lady. My nephew and I were walking up the stairs to our seats at the Ralph a few years ago and she was walking in front of us. We asked if we could get a photo with her and she was very sweet and allowed us to do so. It's almost as good as the pic I took of my nephew with Ralph!

yea!

Amen brother! Well said. 12-step recovery works the same way - and beautiful things happen out of a lot of misery and despair.

GENIUS! Even if it's not proven to you, you might want to say "I believe" as your dying words...just to be safe! (EDIT: and BELIEVE it!)

My thought is there would not be a major outcry at all, and the limited response would likely be from those that link anyone praising Allah to terrorism - sad to say.

So you are basing your supposition of my dishonesty on your observations of other people? Given your reasoning, because I have seen other people act like "douche nozzles" on this board (thanks jboyst!)...... then you, sir, are a douche nozzle.

What do you know about me to suggest I'm not being honest?

I am really enjoying your contributions to this discussion. You express your point of view with my kind of humor, and without attacks. You're cracking me up. And thanks for your response to Chimp early on!

That's a really interesting point - and I wouldn't have a problem with it - although he'd likely get an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for using a prop in a touchdown celebration.

It doesn't matter - it's just a topic for discussion and exchange of ideas on a message board. I agree with much of what you went on to explain in your post. Well put.

Interesting quote from ESPN.com'sTMQ: http://espn.go.com/espn/playbook/story/_/id/8865189/tmq-imagines-harbaugh-childhood-full-sibling-rivalry Hey Everybody, Look at Me: Last week, TMQ zinged J.J. Watt for pointing at himself during games. Reader Doug Williams of Pittsburgh writes, "Watt's immature dancing is a learned behavior. One need look no further than the AFC title game for the prime example of that. Ray Lewis points at himself constantly, he even has a pregame song so he can go through his outlandish gyrations. The result? He is lauded and praised by the sports media. That is the stuff that makes TV, and those are the tactics young players imitate in order to get attention." I guess this is at the root of why I was put off by Ray's actions after the game Sunday. He has a long history of being a showboat and self-aggrandizing guy who makes WWF antics look meek. And that's fine, it's all part of the entertainment value of the game. But when he comes out after the game being so demonstrative about his faith and all the attention God has apparently spent on him, it's hard for me to not feel it's an extension of his self-aggrandizing behaviors. But if he's a truly Christian guy and living it, then good for him. I really enjoy watching him play football. I was interested in reading how others compared Ray's actions to Tebow's. For me,Tebow seems more sincere because he doesn't do the over-the-top "look at me" antics Ray does before and during the game. That's just my perception of how sincerely they express their faith on the football field. This has been an interesting discussion and I've enjoyed reading other's views of God, evolution, the Big Bang, and especially - comments on my "personal and intimate" relationship with God. Giving Jesus a "bee-jay" is a TSW classic.

This cracked me up and made my day! My feelings leading up to starting this thread were somewhat along these lines, but I never could have expressed it as eloquently as this! And "Douche Nozzle" would be a GREAT name for a band!

Watching Ray Lewis at the end of the game last night, kneeling on the field - butt crack showing and dozens of photographers surrounding him in a circle - and then listening to him talk about God....well, it seemed a bit "over the top" to me. But then I started thinking maybe it's not all that different than what Tebow does, in terms of how Tim presents his faith in God on the field and in interviews. To me, my faith and my relationship with God are intensely personal and intimate, but I understand not everyone feels that way. So, I'm interested in people's opinions about their reaction to Ray Lewis' post-game actions/words on his faith, and how that compares to people's perceptions about Tim Tebow's actions/words on his faith. This is strictly related to how they present this to the public as part of their football (professional) personas.

I have an older Onkyo 1000W 7-channel receiver and it has been a great buy and has served me well. You'll have multiple inputs, so you can plug your computer, TV, satellite receiver, DVD and probably a few other sources into the Onkyo. The method you use for the connection will affect the sound quality (optical cables are the best for my system). The Onkyo will accept the surround (5.1) signal from your TV, DVD or Direct TV receiver and turn it into kick-ass sound, if you have placed the speakers correctly and set it up correctly. I have a couple dozen concert DVDs that sound awesome. I occasionally watch the start of NASCAR races, just for the surround sound. The guys at Best Buy will hook you up, but if you can figure out computers and satellite stuff, you'll be able to set this up too.

"Who invited the homeless guy?"

To quote Ralph/Littmann telling Buddy about how to conduct his Head Coach search: 'We want......a shrubbery!"

I have it on "good authority" that Ralph will be creating a video message specifically for TSW with the bombshell news: Overdorf is HOSSAGE Littman is SCOOBY Ralph is........CRAYONZ You heard it here first.

Been there, done that. he should have stayed in broadcasting - best Bills' radio analyst EVER!

The main cameras shoot from behind the Bills bench, so if everyone sits on the visitor's side, it'll look full. I think what you want is for everyone to sit on the Bills side if you are going for the "empty" stadium look.

I felt it was fair to warn everyone to "TAKE COVER PUSSIES!!"

Any word that uses an apostrophe to make the word plural. I hate word's like that.

yes, yes it has...... http://www.buzzfeed.com/mjs538/the-cast-of-mean-girls-then-now

I think this is actually from "Space" cadet.......

If I had seen this stat before the season started, I'd have bet the farm we'd be 5-1 now. Glad I'm not a farmer.....

This article made me laugh, only because the Cardinal game was so typically Buffalo Bills football - a roller coaster ride that was fun when it was over, but I really don't want to go on again...though I know I will. This excerpt is classic: "This was all so gut-churning to watch — and I say this as someone who cares about the Bills the way you might root for a favourite niece’s under-7 soccer team — it required several stiff drinks afterward. This is why they tailgate so hard in Orchard Park — they’re drinking to forget something that hasn’t even happened yet." http://www.thestar.com/article/1271517
