Rubes

How could that possibly be real when her left hand is sticking out from the net as she goes through? That would mean her arm is going through part of the net and her whole arm would snap back as she went through. Plus, she should smack her head on the rim. Although she rubs her head like she did, if she really hit it at that angle her head should snap forward.

Who cares what the previous president did? What does this have to do with him? And what does having a majority have to do with the argument?

I'll be the first to admit the Democratic party really screwed the pooch big time, but I'm getting really tired of this ridiculous argument that Bush somehow now represents the values of this entire country. Yes, Joe will happily point out that he won a true majority. That doesn't really apply to the issue, however. It just means that, of all the people who voted, the majority preferred Bush. Last I checked, it was a fairly slim majority. There is a large faction of our society that has a strong distaste for this President. Almost half didn't want him as President. And almost half don't think he's doing a very good job. And this somehow equates to representing the entire country? Blather all you want in this conservative Republican circle-jerk called PPP about our beloved Bush, but let's face it, you're living in your own reality if you think all of America believes in him. While he may have the everlasting puppy love of many conservatives, he is just as equally despised by a huge portion of this country.

What does he mean "was" a tree ??

Damn. I worked the Olympics here in Salt Lake and I never got any action like that! Maybe I should move...

Hell, if they're that gullible, why not ask for their 2nd as well?

You can say that again. That kid did nothing except make great plays. Throw the ball his way a little more and this offense really opens up.

Perhaps, but I was thinking more along the lines of trading Henry plus our 2nd rounder for a 1st rounder. Henry + a #2, I would think, should interest somebody in the mid-1st round range. I think it's more likely to happen than getting a #2 for Henry.

Just wondering what folks would prefer. If Henry could somehow (in our dreams) be traded straight up for a #2, that would give us option 1 (two second rounders, no first rounder). Some folks are suggesting trading Henry + another pick to move up. If we package Henry with our second rounder, that might get us back into the first round and option 2 (basically, no second rounder). I'm interested to hear what people think is the better situation, since first rounders (like everyone else) are a crapshoot, but they cost a lot. Second rounders, while also a crapshoot, cost less. Obviously, if Henry could only be traded for a #3 at best, that wouldn't be as good as option 1, so I didn't put it down.

Believe it or not, abstinence programs probably don't work. But hey, let's throw another $130 million at it and see if we can force it to work. Sure beats forcing insurance companies to cover the cost of contraception.

If we can just get one more guard, I'm sure Drew Bledsoe will be able to elevate his play!

American kids don't know jack about our freedoms I'll pause while I wait for someone to point out how this is all the fault of the damn lefties...

Perhaps, but the problem is that Lindell is being paid to be more than just a guy who's steady from inside 40. He may be that, but as the highest paid kicker in team history I would expect he would at least be better than Christie. In his 9 seasons with the team, Christie had only 1 season when he hit less than 50% from 40-49 yards. In his career with the Bills, Christie was hitting over 70% from 40-49 yards. That's a very respectable number in any setting. If Lindell could do it before coming to Buffalo, then that's fine. But if he can't do it after coming to Buffalo, then how is he that much of a benefit to us? I just can't see shelling out a ton of money (kicker-wise) for the guy. Yes, it's good to have a steady guy from inside 40, but you need more than that in this league.

Whew...thought this was going to be another thread looking for a replacement for Bledsoe...

Funny...I originally wrote "had" but changed it since I'm still not sure if he'll be around next year (after training camp, that is). You never know with TD...

That's the highest-paid kicker in Bills history, friends. And that's just the ones we actually tried to kick. How many did we not even try because of that percentage? For having the best special teams unit in the league, we sure have a major handicap with this guy.

As much as David Carr has been sacked as the Texans' QB, I can only imagine (and enjoy the daydream of) the complete disaster that would have been, had RJ been the starter for that team. I think they would have ended the season with negative passing yards.

Did I miss something here? When did RJ ever go to Houston?

Perhaps then we could have a 'cleansing' ceremony where we all chuck the DVD into Lake Erie?

I still just don't understand why everybody seems to think that Parcells would like to have Bledsoe back. I see no reason to believe Parcells could accomplish the same with Bledsoe as he did back in '96...nor any reason to believe Parcells would somehow buy into this thinking. As much as I dislike Parcells, I don't think he's an idiot. Why would he have any interest whatsoever in doing this?

I never had a C64 myself, but I remember my RA in college had one in his dorm room and was always playing some cool-looking games. I remember using Vic-20's in high school for some projects. I remember not being able to do very much with them. My first connection with the Internet was with my dad's old terminal (can't recall the name) connected with a 300-baud modem coupler to the phone. You could read the words as they came across the lines. My friend had a TRS-80. It was so cool waiting half an hour for "Temple of Apshai" to load from the tape drive.

Wyche already has enough people to tutor!

Darn. I thought you were going to tell us you are a bad person...

Yeah, I agree with Dan on this...the OT was not exactly the same. I have no particularly good feelings for V or VI; IV was a great film, but it doesn't blind me in any way from seeing the horridness of the later films. Yes, there was certainly come campiness to IV, and some particularly unattractive dialog in parts, but nothing compared to the drivel in the later movies. Plus, the acting quality took a nosedive with the prequels.

Now there's a name that should bring shivers to any Bills fan's spine!
