The Avenger

Did you challenge him to a spearing contest? That was always his thing...

Sign them up for league minimum - that'd be great...

At what point do they hold community tryouts for potential walk on players to supply the sheer number of bodies they need? Community theater? How about community cornerback?

Playing on the beach sand with no equipment was the dumbest thing ever - in hindsight you just shake your head in disbelief...

Terrible. Always terrible to see someone get hurt, particularly an athlete who makes a living with their body. It sucks if I hurt my ankle but I can still do my desk job (I know he still gets paid, but it is his vocation and if it's a serious injury it could impact his career).

I'm not a doctor, but I have to think if they rule out any structural damage it's probably inflammation and soft tissue issues - probably similar to what someone would get from whiplash in a car accident - not sure how long that would take to heal but I'm glad they are saying it is not major.

Pez dispenser - that's a pretty good description - man that was scary! That he could be out of the hospital now after that is amazing - to be young and in top physical shape probably helped because I feel like that would have killed me...

I took off my regular "out and about" Bills hat and put on my "game hat" which is reserved for games only (don't want it to get dirty).

Short yardage definitely needs to be worked on. Say what you will about Tom Brady, but that guy used to convert like 98% of his 1 yard first downs by just plowing forward and Josh is bigger than he is and the Bills line usually gets a decent push. That we struggle so much in those situations and never seem to have Josh push it successfully is a puzzling to me - we should be able to get damn near automatic in those situations.

I was surprised to see that RZC on cable was different than DirecTv RZC. I found the coverage on the cable channel pretty poor - seems like they never knew when to jump into/out if games - they cut away in the middle of a kick last week. By contrast I think the DTV RZC with Andrew Siciliano very good - watched a bunch today with the Bills being off.

Exactly the way the Bills used to lose - up by 2 scores, collapse, make a comeback that ultimately fails because your defense let up a 50+ yard run in the end - how many games have we seen like this?

Remember when the Bills were this Chargers team - up by 10 against a quality opponent and losing by 2 scores?

After that interception was overturned the Chargers collapsed - 17 unanswered points

Facing Henry, this is a terrible time to be thin on the interior line...

Look, I'm all for an homage to the sick stiff arm Josh made on Thursday and it's cool to see how impressed the Browns obviously were with it, but making him an elf is just disrespectful - hope it gives Josh extra bulletin board material...

Wow, I thought I was excited and feeling good after that win - can't even imagine the clouds you must be on with that news - that is fantastic!

The battle of Italian restaurants - the Como vs. Fortuna's (AKA - The Deluxe). Como always had more hype (Frank Sinatra ate there afterall) but you can't beat the food at The Deluxe - the veal is to die for.

The passing of a young person is always terrible, regardless of circumstances. Your heart breaks pondering what life left ahead was unlived. There is no complete recovery from such a tragedy but I certainly pray for peace for friends and family - the pain they feel must be incredible.

New England's drafting has been bad and the team lacks talent. When Brady was there they could add talent with free agents who wanted to play there, but nobody is running to play there now. They need to do what all teams eventually do - rebuild and start to build up their talent again....

They did not say anything about a contract term but I imagine that it's for another year. OK with me - at worst I can get rid of them right before football season next year. She said there was no specific promo for Sunday Ticket but after shed had given me 470/month off my regular bill and we talked about ST she said whe could give me a one-time $100 credit for it so I took it. Was actually less painful this year than in other years - sometimes they're not willing to give you much at all.

So I made the dreaded yearly DTV call after reading this thread - God I hate this task.... No deals on Sunday Ticket (shocker!). They did give me $70/month for 12 months and a 1-time $100 Sunday Ticket credit so I got $940 in credits and paid $395 for Sunday Ticket - in the end I got ST for free and $545 in credits so I guess I'm OK - really hope the last time I have to do this BS...

Yelling is the wrong term - finagling is more like it. Just the fact that they force me to come begging and negotiating with them is beyond frustrating and in my opinion, absolutely horrific customer service. I'm tired of being a longtime customer and not getting things others are getting - ever. F those guys.

Correction - it will be NAMED Acrisure Stadium, but it will be called Heinz Field forever....

SOOO tired of DirecTV and their BS. I have been a customer for more than 15 years and NEVER ONCE was I given any sort of free or discounted Sunday Ticket. I have to call up and haggle and yell at them EVERY YEAR to get something. My mother was even given free ST one year and she doesn't watch football. It gets so annoying to be a longtime loyal customer who gets treated this way and as soon as I can get rid of these %*&&^% I'm going to rip the dish off my roof and send it back to them in small pieces, postage due - it'll be a great day...

Font definitely needs to be comic sans
