In which case we can keep Moorman for one more year ? BTW, I smell sarcasm and a pretty good one at that.

A bunch of positive comments about talks
Fan in Chicago replied to Rockinon's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I am surprised at the lack of comments on your post. I am quite excited and hope that the deal gets done in the next 2 weeks. TC starting on time and a full season ? Fabulous. -
Not sure how good this app is but I have used Google translate just for kicks. I type in one of the other two languages I know and the translation totally sucks. If I tried to woo someone with that level of translation, at best I can expect a guffaw out of the lady.

I am also a big tennis fan and grew up with Johnny Mc being my hero. I used to play tennis and started wearing head bands and custom made (by a tailor in India) ST shirts that resembled the ones he wore. Anyway, while I lament the fall of American tennis, I love the way Rafa plays and carries himself. Federer kind of raised the level of mens tennis overall but I think he is very arrogant and I cannot stand his attitude. Rafa on the other hand is a better overall player and is very modest. He is the working class player and I am not surprised that many Bills fans here also prefer him to Fed.

No but I would like to draw everytone's attention to the aptness of your handle -
Torell Troup's Progress

However, we are all fervently hoping that Dareus makes an immediate impact. -
Bills' Fitzpatrick Ranks Poorly Under Pressure
Fan in Chicago replied to papazoid's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Can those that are bashing Fitz in this post, point specifically to what the FO could have done over the past 4-5 months regarding the QB position ? Be specific. I will even help by seeding this discussion with some ideas: - Draft a QB: Which one and why do you think that QB would be a good replacement for Fitz? - Trade before the end of past season (before labor issues): Again, who would you have traded for and why ? Further, what do you think the FO can do different prior to next offseason ? The original article's source data is shaky and this board has gone all in a tizzy about how the one guy who brought consistency to his position does not deserve to start. -
Did you just smoke pot ?

Sad as this incident is, it decisively proves OBL was killed in the May 2 raid

Investigation into rising gas prices
Fan in Chicago replied to Keukasmallies's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Aaah yes. Most 'well to wheels' or lifecycle analysis conclude that corn-based ethanol is at best marginally net positive in energy. i.e. all the inputs towards making corn based ethanol (energy for fertilizer, agriculture, processing, production etc) take almost the same energy as is received when that ethanol is burnt in an automobile. -
Investigation into rising gas prices
Fan in Chicago replied to Keukasmallies's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Careful now. Ethanol has 30% less energy content than oil derived gasoline. So, E85 will have (0.15 gasoline + 0.7*.85) = ~0.75 times the energy of regular, oil-derived gasoline. Energy 'factors' Oil-derived gasoline = 1.0 10% ethanol blend = 0.97 E85 = 0.75 Which means that you have to fill up E85 about 23% more frequently than E10. So at a buck cheaper (assuming regular E10 is ~ $4), you are about breaking even regarding $/mile driven. -
Whiny b*tch (Part II)

From the title, I thought it was about my ex. Nevermind ... -
Teams contacting UFAs? PFW says yes.

I was not complaining. Simply adding to the list of 'things I learned from the movies' which was a stand-alone thread a while back.
-
BTW - what was the Jeremy Renner cameo all about ? Or did I mistake someone for Renner ? Seeing this movie reminded me of the things I learn from movies (that original thread is buried deep): - Men yearn for godesses but superheros and Norsk Gods like mortal women - Norsk Gods can come to modern earth and immediately pick up the dialect and understand its culture

Saw Thor last night and it was very good. As with you, I was not interested till a few weeks ago. But yesterday I had time to kill and the reviews were good so I saw it. Chris Hemsworth is mostly good though he does go too cute when he arrives on earth. I would have liked a bit more brawn and bit less sweetness. ANyway, I would never have expected a person with strong stage pedigree as Kenneth Branagh to direct such a movie and do it so well.

Methinks Nix and Whaley did the draft without his input to see how it turns out. Well, we did very well so TM was rendered useless. But, ofcourse this is pure speculation based on the timing. Just a point of reference - did you notice how the three picks we made from Gailey's senior bowl team did not mention Modrak having spoken to these prospects ? I just read about Nix and Gailey talking to them and scoping them out.

Just got the text message. Wow !

I think Buddy just got tired of Bill in NYC complaining about the Bills being too small and weak so went out and drafted Mt. Jasper

Maybe you guys will be better
Fan in Chicago replied to Jimmy Spagnola's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Ryan so misses the attention that he is reduced to doing a cameo in CSI: NY. So get yourself out of the Jets hype machine and think objectively about the draft. The Bills became a whole lot better and will be looking to maul Sanchez soon (assuming he is still your starting QB). -
That picture is, indeed, worth a thousand words

Consider that in the last few years, he has been on the run, hiding and staying in different locations, pretty much cut off from the rest of the world, in fear. Then it all ends with two bullets to his head. If anything, the SEALS put him out of his self created misery. Still, I would have loved a public display of his blown off head and carcass. Thankfully, cooler heads than mine are in charge.

How satisfied are you?
Fan in Chicago replied to Canadian Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Overall, I am happy with the positions we picked and based on the player profiles, of the picks themselves. I would have been happier with an OL pick in round #2 or #3 but perhaps there wasn't sufficient value to be had. In general, one OL or TE in place of a DB. (which reminds me to eat some crow cos I had predicted our draft will be tilted towards the O and boy was I wrong !)
