Well, he does finally have some actual credentials now...

Well, I'm not part of the traditional animal left - in fact, the local shelter folks think I'm the antichrist because I refuse to keep my pets indoors - but I simply don't get the hunters. What's the point with the ridiculous mismatch in weaponry? Some fat tub of lard in a tree-top recliner and an orange jacket is impressed with himself because he can buy a can of deer-attract, wipe it on a ground below him, and spray the animals with a semi-automatic? I'll have respect for hunters when they stop pushing for the star-wars weaponry and start pushing to legalize consentual man-against-man hunting. Or at a minimum, hunt animals bare-handed. That is sport, and it's really, really hard, too. If the sterotypical modern hunter had his way he'd show up at the Running of the Bulls in full body armor and an H2 Hummer....

If I'm only GM for a day I'd at least wait until the off-season to use it.

I think you misunderstand. It is not our toy. It is Ralphs. We only get to play look at it on Sundays.

You're forgetting an important verse of the chorus: Drew is the problem, but in press conferences he keeps saying the rest of the offense needs to play better instead of taking the blame himself. How dare he tell us what turns out to be the truth!

I'd feel better about your sentiment except that I went to Bass Pro recently and was truely astonished at what I saw. What's with all the sonar tracking equipment they sell nowadays? And the sonic shock stuff? That's not fishing for sport, its hunting for the satisfaction of killing. I realize this only represents a tiny minority of fishermen, but still, I found it pretty disturbing. In my day fishing meant a lazy afternoon with a pole and a six-pack of soda, not a cameo in The Terminator. (I definately agree with your edit comment. Species survival is the real issue.)

I seem to remember a lot of people on this board warning about how damaging it would be to bench Losman for Holcomb, and about how we are destroying the psyche of our quarterback of the future. Well, if he's half the sensitive wall-flower that people are concerned about, he will never survive a season with TO.

Funny, but for a while there it seemed like every week were were up against a secondary that had lost 2 starters, and would proceed to lose a third in the game... didn't seem to hurt them too much.

If John Madden is ever scheduled to announce another Bret Favre game, can we all go to every news group we know of and urge everybody to boycott watching the game? The networks care about only one thing: ratings. His displays are creepy. Thank you.

Can we have this apply to TD and the coaching staff too? The've been on the franchise roster for a few years with little to show for it. I say TD lines up on special teams or he's outta here!

Especially cincy, after watching their offensive line today. Yikes!

only three more road games to go!

ummm... somebody has to want him for the money he's asking for PLUS a first. Why wouldn't they just get their very own more affordable first rounder? As with the discussions on Travis Henry's worth, I think the Peerless Price deal has warped our perspective. Our best hope in that scenario is a trade ala the Redskins-Broncos.

This summer when the threads were "What part of the team worrys you the most," everybody was talking about the OL and/or JP. I didn't predict this fiasco, but I seemed to be the only one with a bad feeling about the Defense. Everybody took for granted that we'd be good, as good or better than last year, by standing pat and gaining experience. That worried me, because people get old suddenly, people drop off suddenly, and you always have to be upgrading even the best of units just in case. I didn't predict disaster, but I did think a dropoff was likely. But nobody bought my cool-aid...

LOL, he's a wily one, isn't he?

Well put. It's pretty bad when you are watching another game on TV, glance back at the lapt-top, and can't figure out if any more plays have been run...

I think I've figured it out!!! We're doing this so that Brees will have a chance to overtake Bledsoe in qb efficiency, thereby saving TD and company some major embarrassment!

I think he'll be let go this year. But you're right, TD won't hire him since he can't contol him, and it will take a major fiasco the rest of the way for RW to eat both TD & MM's contracts... We're off to a good start, tho.

I want Billick as coach and as many of their organization guys responsible for drafting as possible. (Except anybody who has at any time selected a Raven qb.)

So it sounds like TD is at fault for signing coaches who are not clear leaders.

That's Gregg Williams-style domination!

No they havn't. Over the past fave years, how many games have the Bills won that they shouldn't have? It's been a roller-coaster of awfull mixed with occasional bursts of averageness.

2 yards pass... need a bit more than that....

Sigh... 'nother tuchdown. They're just ripping it up in huge chunks. Not even bothering to run...

agggghhh!!!! The Chargers now have four receivers with 20+ yard receptions already...
