Why text her when stalking her at her place of business seems to be so effective?
i work there too its not really stalking

No recovery is possible. Move on, go and buy a couple of those Wendy's or McD's dollar cheeseburgers and fries.
I'm not being a wiseguy...do what I say.
How many o wise one?

Alright i know this isnt really the place for talking about your problems but i know you guys will give me a straight answer so here goes.
Back in october my ex called me on the phone (im away at school) and told me she couldnt keep doing this anymore and she had to cut her losses. Later i found out there was another guy who was 27 (shes 19) and he lives n toronto (she lives in rochester) So after 14 months of dating her and everything being fine and dandy three 3 daysbefore that i flipped out at her told her she was a B word for cheating on me and she is becoming her mother (she hates her mom) At which point she told me to !@#$ off. It was a little hard for me for awhile and i had alot of problems to work thru as this is not the first time a girl has cheated on me. But after about a month or so i was doing ok i was hanging out with new people and everything was great and still is. Ive hooked up with a few people since then and im happy being single.
I saw my ex yesterday for the first time since we broke up in october she was at work (wegmans) and i felt a pair of eyes glaring at me with a nice healthy death stare and sure enough it was her. I pretended not to notice and just kept going about my business. Then i sorta started laughing because i thought it was funny that she was still pissed at me. I think my reaction was pretty justified at the time and i had every right to be upset and if anyone should be mad its me. She wanted this not me.
So i started thinking about it and really debated just sending her a text saying something like hey im not pissed anymore but if you wanna keep being pissed at me go right ahead but if you ever wanna be friendly and say hello im not pissed anymore. i knew i would be the one who would extend the olive branch first if ever. Should i do this or should i just let her be a B word and ruin forever what was a good relationship for a long time? Im really torn on what is the right answer

They were missing Champ Bailey for the 7 games leading to today. I would say he probably improves them some so Trent played against their best...
They couldnt stop anybody with or without Bailey. Sorry im still not sold on Trent. Great potential but i dont think hes arrived yet
And Evans had 2 catches for 19 yards seems like Trent really did pick their best apart....

how did this thread get this far without the original post being BOMBARDED for it's absurdity. i am sure hamdan's revenge's dad is a hell of a good guy, but there is NO WAY IN HELL the patriots start next season with anyone other than brady at qb. i mean...unless he tears his other knee in half or something. and cassel is about to strike it rich on the OPEN MARKET. not as a franchise player.
i mean think about it- belichek has already turned a total nobody in brady into a hall-of-famer, and turned another nobody in cassel into a soon-to-be multi-multi-millionaire. do you think there is ANY doubt in his mind that he can't just draft another nobody and win 11 or 12 games with him whenever he needs to?
this place...
My dad is a good guy you
haha we were all fighting about it so i figured id ask all my informed sports fans
-
Would the Pats trade Brady? Thats the big debate we're having... My dad and I think that Belicheck is arrogant enough to trade Tom Brady and move forward with Matt Cassell... Digest that and get back to me...
-
Trent did well against a team that is known for not being able to stop ANYONE... Big deal.. We'll see next week against a real playoff team if Trent has "Come of Age"
-
On the FA Market he does, but we're saying the Pats* FRANCHISE him so that he doesn't walk for free...
-
My Dad came up this idea while we watching football today.
He thinks that the Pats* will Franchise Matt Cassell during the offseason.
He then thinks that both Cassell AND Tom Brady will be on the Trading block and whichever QB gets the best offer will be traded.
My brother thinks that nobody is buying Cassell, and therefore that this cannot happen because the Pats* can't afford to pay Cassell that kind of money to do nothing. The rebuttle here is that the Pats* are really trying to move Brady for a rediculous offer i.e. 1st rd Pick for the next couple of years plus a premium player and probably some middle round picks too.
I think (and my Dad) that Belicheat is crazy enough to do it (trade brady) and thinks he can plug anybody into his system and get success. Cassel has won 10 games and has the pats* on the verge of a playoff trip when everyone counted them out. He has had back to back 400 yard games this year and he threw for 345 in the snow today. Somebody would make an offer for Cassel as well IMO. Plus the pats* have pulled of trades like this before (Deion Branch comes to mind)
Is Belicheat that arrogant and heartless to sell Brady after all that they have accomplished together?
Thoughts?

No...it isn't wrong to hope for Peters' demise, but it doesn't help as you mentioned his "trade value" in the offseason. Peters is a locker room cancer for the Bills. Unfortunately, even though he isn't a legitimate Pro Bowl player, he still is the best player on the offensive line.
He is also young and still has a lot of potential despite his rightfully questionable work ethic. You just can't replace LT's very easily in the NFL. Peters reminds me of Willis McGahee and Travis Henry. All three are talented but all three have a lot of baggage. McGahee is flourishing with the Ravens. It shows what happens when a player goes to a franchise committed to winning with an above average offensive line. I would only trade Peters for a proven veteran that will start for the Bills and a 3rd or 4th round draft pick. The only other acceptable value in a trade would be a first round draft pick. If that happens though, expect the Bills O-line to be even more shaky than it currently is.
Hope that the Bills trade him. Hope that he plays well but that he doesn't appear on our roster next year.
Being the backup and getting 8 carries a game is flourishing?

True...but here is my issue with Trent, who I was high on coming into the year and even bought his jersey and still wear it every Sunday.
His comeback wins were a little over rated. When you comeback and win, it over shadows the struggles earlier in the game. 2 of those comeback wins he was bailed out by amazing plays by other players. If we lose those games, people start talking about how Trent stuggled most of the game instead of how he led the game winning drive. Even the Hardy catch was in my mind a lucky break as Hardy has shown to drop a lot of easeier passes and that pass was not a great pass, Hardy just made a great play.
Still, something has to be said for making the comeback and getting us the win, but if you look at his overall body of work in those games, they were mostly marginal and against HORRID defenses and teams. Against Oakland he was terrible when pressured and it wasnt until Oakland stopped bringing as much pressure that he started to move the ball. In fact its also why he struggled against St. Louis too...
So, fast forward to post concussion. He not only continues to be marginal (exception KC) but also begins to just stink it up with turnovers, bad decisions, and a complete lack of confidence. Now, I am FINE with a young QB being marginal and stuggling as it is to be expected.
My REAL issue comes down to this...
He regressed even more when faced with pressure and adversity then became so gun shy that when we gave him tons of time to throw he still couldnt let the ball go, even when replays showed WR's open. The TRUE GREATS you listed above kept slinging the ball when they struggled...they kept pressing on and played through it. I did not see that from Trent.
So now we have a guy who has proven physically FRAGILE at every level of football he has played now showing he may potentially also have a FRAGILE mind set and ego. Thats not good when his biggest selling point was his alleged poise and confidence.
I want the kid to turn it around, but he has shown me something that really concerns me and something not a lot of players overcome...I hope hes the exception.
Well put my thoughts exactly
-
I thought it was the sh!tty play calling and lack of a pass rush, oh and the fact that the secondary couldnt cover me.
Im liking the avatar tho

Perhaps there's more to be said than you think...
Donahoe actually drafted quite a few good players during his time here:
Nate Clements - Pro Bowl CB
Aaron Schobel - Pro Bowl DE and 2nd in AFC in sacks since 2003
Travis Henry - Had 2 1300+ yard seasons in Buffalo and 1 in Tennessee
Jonas Jennings - Started at LT for 4 seasons in Buffalo and 3 in San Francisco
Josh Reed - Bills' only effective 3rd down target
Coy Wire - Looks fine starting at SS in Atlanta
Justin Bannan - Gets plenty of playing time on league's No. 2 overall defense in Baltimore
Willis McGahee - Had 2 solid seasons in Buffalo, currently being phased out in Baltimore.
Angelo Crowell - Looked like he was becoming a very solid 4-3 OLB before being marooned on IR this year
Terrence McGee - Pro Bowl kick returner, certainly not a No. 1 CB but serviceable as a No. 2
Sam Aiken - One of the league's top special teamers
Lee Evans - Since 2001, no player has more TD catches of over 40 yards
Roscoe Parrish - Outstanding kick returner, could be utilized as a weapon if the Bills had a decent QB and offensive coordinator
He also signed Jason Peters and Jabari Greer as UDFAs.
Drafting wasn't Donahoe's problem (except maybe at QB). His downfall was that he couldn't pick a coach.
The problem with that list is there are two offensive lineman and only one defensive lineman on the list. He ignored the lines and let a defense get old while he picked the sexy pick of mcgahee and roscoe and kevin everett when those picks should have been used in multiple other places

Just throwin it out there, but i hope the people who are badmouthing pacman and TO realize that their team is 9-5 and just got done beating the giants and were missing their qb for a month or so. TO has also had one of his teams in the SB...
That was mcnabb good sir
-
Yeah we may have finished last in the division and out of the playoffs. Good thing TE didn't get hurt in week 1.
We mighta finished 6-10 imagine that!

I don't know much about the machines. I prefer to use free weights. I pick them up and then sort of swing and twirl around the room, jerking the weights back and forth as erratically as possible. The good thing about this program is that I don't have to do it very often as I am quite frequently injured.

I asked my wife. She didn't laugh. Go Bills.
Thats ok i did
-
Jauron's contract is a bigger secret than the SEARCH button on TBD.
-
If Schefter's report is correct then Jauron will be the coach in 2009 even if the Bills drop their remaining games because Ralph is waaaay to cheap to eat a 3 year deal. They will probably restructure their coaching staff and it wouldn't surprise me if the Bills can DC Perry Fewell and hire Lions coach Rod Marinelli as their new def coordinator...he knows the stupid Tampa 2 scheme that we run and would be an improvement over Fewell.
If it were up to me I'd blow the whole thing up and ditch our defensive scheme altogether.
No thank you I hate starting over again. I like fewell actually if he could find a way to get more pressure we would have a pretty good defense and much better than when we started last year. With all the injuries he does a good job IMO.
-
I picked Miami because i hate Brett favre and i think it would be funny if after all that money they spent they missed the playoffs. New England going undefeated in the regular season last year and not making the playoffs would be mildly entertaining. I hate the dolfags too but i had to pick one

Hmmm Jonah Hill has a somewhat similar rant in Superbad. Is that it?
Actually it was family guy Stewie says it to olivia after she uses the joke you are the weakest link goodbye
close tho it was a little vague

OK, let me get this straight:
So Edwards has sucked for the last 2 months because of a concussion. We also hear that a "buddy" still has blackouts and migraines following concussions years later. A blackout would explain his many interceptions and bad games. So, if Trent is going to suck everytime he gets hit, we better cut him now and move on. This is the NFL, and the QB is going to get hit. And hit hard. Every year. If Trent doesn't have the toughness to get up, he is no use to us on the bench.
Look at his career at Stanford. And now he is missing game after game in the NFL, just like in college. Does anyone see a pattern here ?? He stands to miss 4-6 games every season. That doesn't = a competitive football team.
Why are you apologizing for Trent's awful play ? Making excuses ? Compared to bad play, it is more concerning to me if these excuses are true, and that he isn't able to bounce back from injury. Then it doesn't matter how much he might improve, it doesn't matter how good he is if he's sitting on the bench.
Best post ive read all week
