Do you have any evidence that John Henderson was on the market? Besides the Profootballcentral piece it was never substantiated by any reliable or semi-reliable source that he was even available.

Thanks for reminding us about that....so he was the guy.

Your joking right? Are you comparing what he'd pay for an experienced coach in the 60's or 70's to what he'd have to pay in the year 2010? Paying for a top experienced coach is not even a possibility whether you believe in Ralph or not. Why put yourself through the heartache of believing it could be so?

I've got Dave and Busters staked out nothing here yet.... Can we get an update from any sighting from our TSW correspondents at: 1. The Airport 2. Applebees 3. Danny's 4. Motel 6 5. Galleria Mall Also, any sightings of Ralph's Taurus on the roadways? Thanks........

Mead your a class act, I wish you and your family continued happiness!

From the AP: "I believe Capt. Renslow did have intentions of landing safely at Buffalo, as well as first officer Shaw, but obviously in those last few moments ... the flight instruments were not being monitored, and that's an indication of a lack of situational awareness," said John Barrett, Colgan's director of flight standards.

Of course his reaction was a "normal one" but it wasn't what his training said he was supposed to do/or the right thing to do.

NF Post Get your popcorn ready.........you might want to stake out Applebees or Dave and Busters if your in town. DELETE.....DELETE.....

If anyone wants to check out a very informative thread on this topic go here: Airliners.net many experience pilots and airline personnel weighing in on the topic.

This has to be one of the lamest thread ideas ever. How long before someone adds it to their signature to mock you? Samus explain yourself.

Thanks for sharing! Ignore the pond scum.

A bum? But I thought the Bills just mismanaged him? LMFAO....the Losman fanboys are pathetic!!!

Funny stuff...Funny stuff! "Pushing my way where you came out as a baby?" Not to be crude, but my guess is there are many mothers out there who would rather have a good ---- than get some lame a-- candy and chocolates. Maybe Lana or Pyrite Gal could weigh in on this. Did I say this? Don't tell my mother.

Not sure if it's been mentioned in this thread yet ( I don't read the Skooby threads) But Levi Jones might be motivated to play in the AFC East to face off against Joey Porter 2x a year. Remember- Porter attacked him from behind with like 2 or 3 bodyguards while in a Vegas casino. Video

Switching her to home schooling is not "striking at the root of the problem" You need to address the underlying issues that are causing the surface behavior/acting out. A full scale Psycho/educational assessment should be completed.

mcjeff215: Very thoughtful reply with many excellent points to ponder. I am a former SPED Teacher and School Administrator. Currently I work in business, but still tutor a few students because it is so rewarding to help to turn around their academic success (and teachers perceptions of a students limitations) Quick story: For years I was a teacher administrator for a school in Chicago for kids kicked out of the Chicago school system. We can start with the premise that to get kicked out of the Chicago school system can take some effort right? Well, we had an assortment of learning disabled, emotionally disturbed and conduct disordered students. But we also would get kids that somehow fell through the cracks because they never had anyone advocate for them and help unlock their potential. Currently one of my former students at that school I had in his 8th grade year came to our school with a long rap sheet of "problems"- is in the Doctoral Program for Psychology at The University of Chicago. He had many teachers (and The Principal) believe in him and help him gain self awareness of why he "behaved" a certain way and he learned how to make better choices. He was also taught in a way that addressed his strengths/weaknesses specific to his learning style. I would say the moral of the story is that no one expected him to graduate from high school, much less college or with an advanced degree. Dont put limits on a students potential. What he did get at our school was a group of teachers and administrators committed to seeing him succeed. My number one belief in education is that each student at our school gain the belief that "It matters that they are there" that the school is not whole or complete unless they are a part of it. John: seek out staff at your daughters school that are willing to believe in her and advocate for her and don't be afraid to DEMAND that the school provide an environment that ensures her success. It's their responsibility and unfortunately many just don't take it seriously.

If Big Papi is on them they are not helping him hit. This season he has ZERO home runs and is batting in the .220's. My guess is he was on the juice and is now off.

John: Have you considered asking the school district to do some Psycho/Educational Assessment testing? When the psychological and educational testing are included in an overall assessment of a person it is called a psycho/educational assessment. Psycho/educational assessments help document the information processing dysfunctions or strengths of the students being tested . The info would be helpful to the school she is enrolled in and would also help anyone working with her in a home school situation. You might have to press for this, as so many districts try to limit spending money. I don't like the school just suggesting home schooling. I would want to hear from them how they WILL provide the best environment possible to ensure her success.

Brown fell for a reason? Do those same reasons apply to why Shawn Nelson fell in the draft? Just asking. Carolina valued Brown enough to trade a first round pick to draft him. If you look at the Panthers record at identifying top offensive and defensive line talent over the years its pretty good.

A Bills scouts mouth? That is laughable and just plain WRONG. Brown was the most complete pass rusher(variety of moves etc.) available in the draft. If you project him to best long term in the NFL, then the opinion can vary.

Very sad news. I'm sure stories will come out again about his generosity. I remember in years past reading various articles that mentioned how he has quietly helped out many former Bills players who had hard times after their playing careers were over. He took seriously his role as a leader on the field, and that leadership even took on a greater meaning when his playing days were over. Class act. RIP

I don't think it will hit home until I go see the Bills at training camp this summer. To see Owens at St. John's Fisher will be quite a sight!

LINKY Growing up in a family that worked at The Courier Express for a few generations- I already miss what once was. Excerpts: For most newspapers in the United States, we would not buy them at any price," Buffett said. "They have the possibility of nearly unending losses. ... I do not see anything on the horizon that sees that erosion coming to an end." Buffett said Berkshire would hold on to the Buffalo News, a daily newspaper in the New York state city of the same name, if only because Berkshire buys businesses for the long term and does not sell simply because the companies hit a rough patch. He did not rule out having to squeeze out excess costs, including possible job cuts, or eventually shuttering the paper if it goes too deeply into the red. "On an economic basis you should sell this business. I said I agree 100 percent but I am not going to do it," he said. "The union has been cooperative in having an economic model that will at least give us a little bit of money."
