Albany,n.y.

Marino must still hold a grudge for us beating him in every important game from the time Kelly arrived until he left. He must have told HBO that there will be no Bills highlights on Inside The NFL. I can't wait until Super Bowl week when if they continue to ignore us, they'll have an hour of NFC highlights & will be picking the NFC team to lose without mentioning who will beat them in the pick segment.

Just about any sports bar with a dish. Just look up taverns in the yellow pages & call the closest ones to you & ask if they show all the NFL games.

3rd! Screw them, we're #1!

At the game. I went to the 4 losses & I have to go to the winning game.

Great analysis, I thought I was reading something professionally written. One minor correction, Josh Bidwell is their punter, Josh Miller is on the Patriots.

That's great. I checked out Stubhub & I'm not sure if they're a licensed broker or just a trading site similar to e-bay. Personally, I'd rather go to a licensed broker since some of Stubhub's policies can cause one to lose money on tickets priced higher than face if they adhere strictly to the stated policy. I think the typical licensed brokers may cost more but they seem to offer more protections than Stubhub.

Petrino & I are probably going to the Teletheatre because we're going to the Stones concert the night before with the 3rd Bills fan & since some of us are unsure how we'll feel on Sunday (I'll be fine because I don't drink) we'll be going to a place where we don't need reservations or a minimum # for a table-meaning if only one shows he doesn't need a table at the Teletheatre sportsbar. Usually we go to The Arc or Smokey Bones.

Your problem is not with the Saints. They are not responsible for the tickets you bought from a broker. On the other hand if you got the tickets from a licenced broker, then your refund should come from them. Instead of e-mailing the Saints, contact the broker and get your refund. I doubt they'll do anything but be courteous & refund your money. 3 years ago I bought tickets to game 5 of the NBA finals through a broker (Razor Gator in California), the series ended in 4 and I got a full refund-which was a lot higher than face, by returning the tickets (minus the postage fees). A licensed broker has to refund your money in full if the event doesn't take place in the city that it was sold for.

Ch 6 is covering NE-Car instead of the Bills @ Tampa Bay. I can't remember the last time NE got picked over the Bills around here, including the NBC years (I've been around Albany since 1988). It's always been either Bills or Jets, talk about bandwagons

You should be able to say the same thing about Martz, who, outside of Mike Tice, is a slam dunk for NFL's worst head coach.

The plan was to replace him with Roscoe Parrish. So, in another month Clements won't be returning punts anymore.

The thing I like best is JP's quick release. Saves a lot of sacks over the course of a career.

No wonder Vermeil is always crying, he's already had to bail out half his roster.

I found this site on Jan Smithers, someone is following her way too closely, even plays the song "Tiny Dancer" http://www.clothmonkey.com/smithers.htm

Or...Too much time on the computer & not enough in front of the TV

Current: 1) Curb Your Enthusiasm 2) Desperate Housewives 3) Lost 4) Deadwood 5) Boston Legal Past 1) Get Real (best show nobody ever saw) 2) Homicide, Life on the Streets 3) Paper Chase 4) Seinfeld 5) Mission Impossible Honorable Mention (added when I edited a typo): Quantum Leap

Cardinals | Run Game Horrible Mon, 12 Sep 2005 17:54:55 -0700 Darren Urban, of the East Valley Tribune, reports the Arizona Cardinals running game was so bad Sunday, Sept. 11, that QB Kurt Warner was the leading rusher with 11 yards.

The way Vick is playing, I hope our D is together watching this somewhere because if they are all their mouths are watering just waiting for him to come to the Ralph in less than 2 weeks.

I think Everett has a much better shot than Thomas. Unless we get some DB injuries, Thomas will never play in a Bills uniform again. If Everett is ready, they'll carry 4 TE's before they finish the season with 7 WRs.

Welcome back, everyone's glad you're ok. Ice even came back asking about you.

Jim Leonhard is a fiesty little guy.

Although the ESPN guys didn't see it & are defending Trotter, I thought I saw Trotter jab Mathis in the chest or stomach before Mathis threw a punch. Any TIVO people out there who can confirm or reject my view?

Trotter (Phil) & Mathis (Atl) already ejected

Carr made RJ look good by comparison. It was more like Carr was the guy starting his 1st NFL game. I hope it was our defense that did this, but Carr has been sacked repeatedly throughout his career. Since being the #1 pick in the 2002 draft, Carr has been outplayed by guys in subsequent drafts like Palmer, Leftwich, Roethlisberger, and so far this year, J.P. Losman. The only reason it's not more noticeable is because the 2002 QB draft was so bad (so far, depending on how Harrington does) with recently benched Patrick Ramsey being the 3rd 1st rounder and a bunch of guys who are burried on the bench or have been waived out of the league (with the possible exception of Arizona 3rd rounder Josh McCown-who could regain the starting job in a Denny Green minute if Warner struggles much longer). After Leftwich & Palmer, 2003 ain't much better, with 1st round bust Boller and Rex Grossman , whois starting to make RJ look durable, the only other possible success is Chris Simms, who is still riding the pines in TB. If the classes of 2004 & 2005 produce some quality starters, the Carr pick will look even worse, especially considering that the guy I would have picked in that spot, Julius Peppers has been all world in Carolina.

Sort of what Billick is doing a little north of DC with Boller & Wright? If Baltimore wins next week, I think Boller could be all done as the starter in Baltimore.
