It was a looooooong day at work...needed a laugh. Besides there were plenty waste of space posts on Sunday

After that you pass to the right....

Gotcha, I had a good feeling what the M and F were, just couldn't come up with the R and E.

LMAO

In the Academy, the one thing they drilled into our heads was, "At the end of the day, make sure it is you that gets to go home to your family." BTW, what the heck is an REMF?

If I think hard enough I bet I can find an instance....but I dont wanna be sitting here for the next few months

Eagles are a good bet, but i'm also leaning towards the possibility of Pittsburgh or Kansas City.

That quote just made my day AD, thank you. As an officer myself and after reading and listening to countless reports of the incident today, the Air Marshal in my eyes definately made the right decision. I think the fact that the flight was an international flight that originated in Ecuador also played a part in it. The security measures of other countries, especially poorer countries just arent up to snuff in most cases and there was a good chance that he did in fact have a bomb. One argument that was brought up at work today was the fact that the wife stated that the subject was mentally ill. My response to that was, "Who cares, how many mentally stable suicide bombers do you know?" It's one thing to be mentally ill and proclaim yourself god or threaten to kill yourself, its another thing to be mentally ill, say you have a bomb, then go running up a jetway into a crowded airport. the bad part of this is, the media's and the liberal's 20/20 hindsight into the matter is going to award this family compensation of some form. (Granted that Graham v. Connor 1989 ruled that hindsight cannot be used to determine right and wrong when a split second decision had to be made, doesnt stop the media from making the Marshals look bad.)

That Mularkey is going to excuse Brian Moorman from Sunday's game. MM believes that the Bills offense is finally clicking and that they would be better off to activate another player in Moorman's spot. Justin Bannan will assume any punting duty if so required as he at one time in his life kicked a football. Also, my sister's exboyfriends mother who works at Buffalo Niagara Int'l said that she saw George Seifert renting a car this afternoon. It was a blue Dodge Neon.

Tedy Brewski saved 20 orphans from a fire by using his magical ice breath. Later that night he made contact with a player of the opposing team an NFL record 127 times.

He's found new ways of losing games

Last I knew the net worth of the Bills organization was 708 million. so I'm assuming that if Ralph's daughter decides not to hold on to the team herself, she'll sell it for anywhere between 650 and 750 million. My guess is that if the team is sold it will be to someone from outside of WNY and that could be trouble for the Bills in Buffalo. Not that Buffalo is a bad football town, because I can't think of a better one, but the fact that the economy in Western NY is less than ideal. As much as I hate to say or even think it, the economy needs to take a major upswing in the next 10 years if we are to retain the Bills.

Needs to draft another under 6' WR to replace Moulds....Go Mighty Mice!!! Seriously though, with the first round pick I say we get the best available player between the Tackles, Safeties, CB (If we lose Clements), or WR (If we lose Moulds) Personally, I dont like the idea of drafting a starting OL and would rather fill the positions via FA, but I dont recall any big name OL that are in contract years this year. I will however, do some research and probably post something on that later. However, we havent had the best of luck with bringing in OL under the Donahoe regime so I guess at this point it'll be the lesser of 2 evils.

Sullivan is a moron, I cant remember the last time he wrote something worth reading. Then again, Buffalo News isn't known for their stellar sports reporting.

LMAO, I was thinking the same thing

Dont give them any ideas

Sage looked awful again today didnt he?

Like I've said before, I've heard nothing but good things about the kid. Granted he was playing the Texans...the worst team in the league. If Bulger can't go next week, and Martin hasnt been able to shake the fog from that concussion, I'd like to see what the kid can do in a full game.

its not the hate for the QB's over 30...I respect all those guys professionally. However, take another look at that list and tell me who has done what that will keep them in the league? Wrong side of 30, final year of their contracts. Maybe hang em up wasn't the correct phrase to use there, but I have a hard time believing those guys will be on an NFL roster next season.

AFC East: Buffalo: Mike Mularkey (13-13) 2yrs. Buffalo is struggling yet again this season. Even with a sub .500 record this year, I doubt that Ralph Wilson pulls the plug on Mike. However, if GM Tom Donahoe gets the axe this year, does Mularkey and the rest of the coaching staff go down with the Kool-Aid tanker? Miami: Nick Saban (3-7) 1 year. Saban hasn't exactly brought new life to the Dolphins, but he certainly hasnt made them any worse. If miami can bring in the 3 or 4 key players that Saban needs, they might have a serious shot at the division title in 2006. New England: Bill Belichick (95-75) 11 years. The genius that is Bill Belichick will not be going anywhere in 2006. However, if he's gonna need to increase production next season if he wants to keep that title of genius. New York: Herman Edwards (37-37) 5 years. Losing both Pennington and Fiedler early in the season looks to not only cost the Jets the season, but Edwards his job. Herman is going to need a strong finish if he expects to remain the HC for the Jets in 06. The most likely scenario is he gets the axe and takes a coordinator position next year. AFC North Baltimore: Brian Billick (59-47) 7 years. Though he might not be on the hot seat at the end of a disappointing 2005 campaign, his job in Baltimore will be on the line in 2006. You can only survive on a Super Bowl victory for so long. Cincinnati: Marvin Lewis (23-19) 3 years. 2 straight seasons of .500 ball had many critics questioning the coaching ability of Lewis. However, the Bengals have been stellar this season and look to make a strong showing in the AFC playoffs this year. Lewis isnt going anywhere, he might even get an extension with a good playoff showing. Cleveland: Romeo Crennel (4-6) 1 year. Not quite the turn around that Cleveland fan's hoped for. But 4-6 with the kind of team Romeo has this year isn't a bad record. With the addition of a few key players and the possible return of Kellen Winslow the Browns could be a solid team next season. Look for a tough Cleveland defense next season Pittsburgh: Bill Cowher (137-80-1) 14 years. The stout chinned general of Pittsburgh isn't leaving town anytime soon. AFC South: Houston: Dom Capers (47-75) 8 Years. The man who built the Jaguars and took them to the playoffs in their second year of existance was supposed to do the same with the Texans. However, that just hasn't been the case in Houston. Another disappointing season looks to be the end of Capers-era in Houston. Indianapolis: Tony Dungy (98-56) 10 years. After being ousted from Tampa Bay, Dungy has gone on to turn the Colts into an AFC powerhouse. However, his teams have struggled in the playoffs year in, year out. Anything less than a Super Bowl victory this year will be a disappointment and may send the Colts front office looking for someone else to get the Colts over that last hurdle Tennessee: Jeff Fisher (95-81) 12 Years. 2-8 so far this season. Norm Chow didnt revitalize the offense like the Titans hoped. If the Titans can regroup and cross the finish line on their feet instead of their hands and knees, Fisher will still be in town. However a 2-14 finish might lead the Titans to go in another direction coaching wise. Jacksonville: Jack Del Rio (21-21) Tough, no nonsense player = tough, no nonsense coach. 7-3 so far with the playoffs in reach. Jack will be back with his young, but one more year mature team next season for a serious super bowl run. AFC West: Oakland: Norv Turner (58-76-1) 9 Years. 4-6 record, not quite the explosive offense that was expected and Randy Moss can't stand him. Norv will be back next year, but after that is anyone guess. San Diego: Marty Schottenheimer (183-121-1) 20 Years. Marty finally has a very strong offensive team, but a tough early season schedule and the lack of a dominating defense are keeping SD from being a top the AFC west. Unless there is a total implosion, Marty stays for as long as he wants. Denver: Mike Shannahan (118-73) 13 years . Mike can turn nearly any RB into a 1,000 yard rusher. However, since the retirement of John Elway, he's lacked a solid starter at QB. Jake Plummer though has finally been allowed to play QB his way and the Broncos have been nearly unstoppable. As long as he keeps the leash of Jake, the Broncos will keep winning. Kansas City: Dick Vermeil (116-107) 15 years. Has proved time and time again that nice guys don't always finish last. However, KC just doesn't quite have what it takes to win in the playoffs and word has it that Coach Vermeil is contemplating retirement at the end of the season. I think it would be a good idea for him to hang it up and leave it hung up this time. NFC East: Dallas: Bill Parcells (161-120-1) 18 years. Bill has done what many believed was impossible, co-existed with owner Jerry Jones. As long as Jerry gets the players that Parcells wants, and Parcells keeps winning, he'll be in Dallas as long as he wants. Philadelphia: Andy Reid (68-38) 7 years. May go down in history as the man who told T.O. "No" and stuck to it. However, McNabb can't stay healthy and the Eagles depth is pretty shallow. 2005 is over for the Eagles and 2006 might be a make or break year for Andy Reid. New York: Tom Coughlin (81-73) 10 years. Tougher than a $2.00 steak. Has the Giants in position for solid playoff run behind second year QB Eli Manning. Has long has he has the players on his side, the Giants will be a contender in the NFC Washington: Joe Gibbs (135-75) 14 years. In a publicity stunt gone right, Dan Snyder finally made a smart move bringing back Redskins idol Joe Gibbs. Although, it looks like a farce last season, once Gibbs got the players he wanted on the team the Redskins finally started winning some games. While 5-5 is hardly a stellar record, it's forecasting good things to come if Snyder continues to listen to Gibbs. NFC North: Green Bay: Mike Sherman (55-35) 6 years. Utter disappointment is the only way to describe the Packers season so far. If Favre retires this season, Green Bay might look to rebuid altogether, meaning new QB, better DB's and a new Head Coach. Chicago: Lovie Smith (12-14) 2 years. The Bears finally have a defense that strikes fear in the hearts of opposing offenses again. It looks like Lovie's growing pains as a head coach are gone and the Bears will win the NFC North. Minnesota: Mike Tice (28-31) 5 years. Even with Minnesota's recent winning streak Tice is on the cutting block. Between the ticket scalping incident, and all the off the field distraction's this year there isn't much that can save Tice's job Detroit: Steve Mariucci (72-67) 9 Years. The current buzz is that Mariucci is on the way out in Detroit and I dont blame the Lions. Mariucci hasn't done much when it comes making the Lions into a solid football team. Mariucci was supposed to be the guy to make Joey Harrington a top NFL QB, instead he's given up on him. Steve might want to get a resume prepared for this offseason. NFC South: Atlanta: Jim Mora, Jr. (18-9) 2 years. Has had great success in his first 2 seasons as a head coach. Atlanta is sold on him and as long as the Falcons make regular playoff runs Mora will be the man in Atlanta. (Playoffs?!?!?!) New Orleans: Jim Haslett (44-46) 6 years. Just can't seem to do better than .500 in a season. However, with the mess that is New Orleans, I doubt Tom Benson is going to do anything drastic to make the Saints a contender in 2006. Therefor I believe Haslett will still be the coach. Tampa Bay: John Gruden (69-53) 8 years. Although he won't win the part of Annie any time soon, (hopefully you all have seen that commercial on NFL Network) Gruden has turned around the Bucs. After a 5-11 season the Bucs are 7-3 and on the playoff bubble. Gruden will be safe in TB as long has the team continues to improve. Carolina: John Fox (32-26) 4 years. 7-3 with a strong defense and Steve Smith is on fire. As long as they can ride the wave of good play the Panthers will be in playoff contention and Fox will stay off the hot seat NFC West: San Francisco: Mike Nolan (2-8) 1 year. Not a great way to start one's head coaching career. Nolan will need to improve his record next season or be prepared to be on the chop block. Seattle: Mike Holmgren (133-85 ) 13 years. Holmgren will lead Seattle into the postseason. Holmgren isnt leaving Seattle anytime soon. St. Louis: Joe Vitt (2-3) 1 year. With health problems keeping Mike Martz away from the field and most likely into early retirement, the Rams have been entrusted to Joe Vitt. Its higly unlikely that Vitt will remain the coach after the end of the season. Arizona: Dennis Green (106-79) 12 years. The Cards havent shown any improvement over last season. Partly because of the lack of a QB. Green is going to need to find one soon and start winning some games. Green will be on the hot seat next season. Thats the way I see things...what about you guys?

Of the QB's listed above, I believe these will hang it up after this season: Pos. Player Team Age QB Tony Banks Texans 32 QB Todd Collins Chiefs 33 QB Ty Detmer Falcons 37 QB Doug Flutie Patriots 42 (Well one can hope at least) QB Jeff Garcia Lions 35 (If not the starter at the end of this season) QB Tommy Maddox Steelers 33 (Will not be resigned by Pitt) QB Jamie Martin Rams 35 QB Shane Matthews Bills 35 QB Chris Weinke Panthers 32 (Not entirely sure on this one)

These QB's are in the final year of their contract this year. Wish I would have found this list prior to posting...could have given a little bit better analysis Pos. Player Team Age QB Tony Banks Texans 32 QB Charlie Batch Steelers 30 QB Drew Brees Chargers 26 QB Todd Collins Chiefs 33 QB Ty Detmer Falcons 37 QB Ken Dorsey 49ers 24 QB Doug Flutie Patriots 42 QB Jeff Garcia Lions 35 QB Shaun Hill Vikings 25 QB Doug Johnson Browns 27 QB Tommy Maddox Steelers 33 QB Jamie Martin Rams 35 QB Shane Matthews Bills 35 QB Josh McCown Cardinals 25 QB Craig Nall Packers 26 QB Sage Rosenfels Dolphins 27 QB Chris Simms Buccaneers 24 QB Kurt Warner Cardinals 33 QB Chris Weinke Panthers 32

Ralph dies...his daughter takes over and Bills move to LA or Toronto. Worst case scenario at least. I think thought that Ralph has a contingency plan in his will about keeping the team in buffalo, but I dont know the details

To hell with both Picard and Kirk....Hans Solo gets my vote

I'll take the job...and I'll take it cheap. Otherwise...seriously I dont think Ralph is going to boot TD and if he does, I have a feeling the promotion will come from within the organization
