13 more hours... LET'S GO MOUNTAINEERS !!!!!

Happy New Year to Bills fans everywhere...

-- Pat White, the freshman QB who took over for the injured Adam Bednarik, ran for 220 yards himself, setting a WVU QB rushing record. I've never seen a quarterback run for over 200 yards in a game before. -- The fans. West Virginia is an often maligned state, for everything from being poorer than say, New York, to the kids in Morgantown that burn couches everytime the Mountaineers win. I saw that there were still a lot of people in the stadium when the final gun sounded, even though the game had been decided late in the third quarter and the wind chill was plunging near zero. One tradition WVU fans do at the end of games is sing "Country Roads" by the late John Denver, so I would think most of the fans who stayed wanted to do that at the end of the "Backyard Brawl". Next year, the Mountaineers and the Marshall Thundering Herd start an in-state seven year series. Most West Virginians are fans of both teams, so it will be really interesting to see how this series splits the state. The Marshall--- WVU game next year and for the next several years will be interesting to say the least...Many peeps here in WV are ardently WVU OR Marshall and bad mouth each other a lot....I'll post the links to newspaper articles next fall... I for one cheer for both and have a front lisense plate that has the WVU and Marshall logo on it with the phrase " The House Divided" I also have a daughter at each school so it really doesn't matter to me who wins this game....Both places love my tuition checks....

I got a new Bills flag ..... a Bills Bottle opener that plays the Monday Night football song and a pair of Bills socks..... Already have 22 shirts so I don't need any more of those... except when I get a customized LewPort # 71 jersey next summer

Bill....Merry Christmas to you and your family.... ps...Good analysis

Miller Lite Beer just had a commercial with "The Lights" and the catch line... "enjoy the Lite" What this guy in Ohio did was pretty cool... If ya want to see great lights, go see Trans Siberian Orchestra in concert..

Thanks for the update JoeF... Continued prayers for a complete recovery

Generally my two daus were well behaved in a public setting....If they misbehaved at a restaurant, they got "the LOOK" and knew that trouble was brewing... About the worse they ever did was a monster belch ( aided by Dr. Pepper ) that shook windows.... As a kid I misbehaved one time that I can remember...'cuz later that night I got a reminder about what proper restuarant behavior meant.... If the parents do not control the kids, I have no problem with the manager asking the family to leave...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Cindy !!!!

Exactly..... 70--3 would be fine by me.... GEAUX BILLS

I hear what ya say......I am not holding my breath either...

The TSO Concert last night was great.... Superb musicianship A light / laser show that is un real... Entertaining as all get out......... They performed for 2 hours 40 minutes and a portion of the tickets sales is donated to a local charity..... re: the light show...TSO must use a gigawatt of electricity...More jobs for the WV coal miners...LOL.... So, if you were thinking about going to see them, get going and call ticketmaster.... A new CD will be released in 2006,,,But it will NOT have a Christmas theme

On Friday we order Chinese food (since they deliver ) and General TSO's is a favorite...So that will be in 21 hours... T S O .. Trans Siberian Orchestra.....

"...hives about ticket prices".. But THAT is a concert I would spend the $$$ for... PG fronting and PC on the drums...Yup,,it would be worth 'it'.

Like Eric and Fezmid say, the age range at a TSO concert goes from 8--80..All ages like the show.... Of the 4 CDs...I like Beethoven's Last Night the best...but thats just me... 10 more hours ...tick...tock...

12 more hours until me and Mrs. Lew see TSO in Charleston. We went last year and it was great. This year they will play in the Civic Center which seats @ 12,000. Last years show was at the Memorial Auditorium which seats 4,000...It was kinda cramped.... I can highly recommend TSO... Great concert.. www.trans-siberian.com

Yes,,I hope the Colts 'run the table' and go 19-0..... Bill Polian, Peyton and Tony Dungy are three examples of what is 'right' with the NFL... The h#ll with those old Dolphins...

Congrats meazza21 on your first game at the Ralph...!! sitting low does stink...in that your view is blocked... Make your plans for the home opener next year and join the TSW party...It is a blast and Jay always gets great seats ...

I thought the color on my TV was bad when watching the Bears highlights... Geesh those were ugly....Miami's orange was worse though..... Orange is OK on helmets,,,but not on the unis...IMHO...

Godfather 3....UGH Esp since 1 and 2 were SO good... CAddyshack 2.......what a waste of film..

I'd take ANYONE in the booth instead of Joe Theismann

Have a great time... Geaux Bills !!!

Happy Birthday AiO !!!

Do they make Apple Turnovers too...?? I thought about all the Chat Room turnovers last Sunday !!!
