OK, I know "senior people" too...and I'm not going to get into a pi$$ing match as to who knows more senior people...but I am told quite the opposite. Does this guy come off as an Einstein? No. But this whole "Bush is an idiot" thing is getting a little out of hand...

Looking like the Skins at the Cowboys will be the Thanksgiving night game. A number of media outlets are reporting the Cowboys and Redskins will play the first regular season game telecast on the two-year-old NFL Network. The game will be one of three played on Thanksgiving Day and will air in prime time, as an additional game is added to the holiday lineup. The game begins a new eight-game package that will air on NFL Network on Thursday and Saturday nights starting this fall. Link

And it wasn't even close to being sold out...I believe it was even blacked out in the LA area.

No, it's the "world premier." Yeah, I saw the poll too

That was Supe XXVII...how could that not have motivated the Bills in Supe XXVIII?!?!?! Pork-Faced Satan: "That morning, I knew we were going to win, I just didn't know by how much." What the F$%^*#...I guess it merely motivated the Bills for the first half...

Not quite, Bills scored first and LA followed up with the FG. What I remember was listening to the radio the night before, waiting for the war dispatches from Iraq...for some reason, I thought something catostraphic was going to happen over there and I thought the game was going to be postponed...felt they way the whole drive up from DC on the Friday before the game, and the whole way to the stadium on Sunday. Other than the football, I remember the USMA band marching off toward the tunnel end zone after the National Anthem...chills ran down my spine.

Skins getting 9 points is awfully tempting...I'm saying they cover the spread and lose by four. Being in DC, maybe the over-blown hype has tainted the mind, but the Skins are peaking at exactly the right time...I look for them to give the SeaBags all they can handle.

I've said it before, the Monk issue is big here in DC and if the Skins had not gotten so far in the playoffs, it would be numero uno... King has said time and again that he works to keep Monk outta the HOF as much as others work to get him in. His favorite story comes from when he was a beat writer at Newsday and all the Giants told him they feared Gary Clark more than Monk....hence he feels the 'second-best' receiver on a team shouldn't be the one going to Canton.

God, just to win something this year would be uplifting...

This box score has it at 41 yards. 41 yarder

A man can die but once, but don't try to tell that to Bills fans, who've died 1,000 deaths. How do you lose a playoff game on a contested backward lateral kickoff return. Just after your kicker boots a 51-yard field goal that apparently has won the game with 16 seconds left? Only Bills fans know. I don't remember Christie's kick being 51 yards...I believe it was much closer than that.

Remember the Blue-Gray game? I think it was played in Montgomery, AL on Christmas Day... The only thing I remember from those games was the 'southern belles' that use to patrol the sidelines.

Wrote in a post yesterday...there is nothing equal in American sport to losing four Super Bowls in a row. The rest be damned...were the most miserable...by far.

My heart bleeds purple pi$$ for him... I'm sorry, but there is no other feeling in American sport that rivals losing four Super Bowls in a row...no Red Sox (until recently), Cubs, Browns, Jets, or Philly fan can match it, no matter what the national media portrays.

I think I remember Sgt. Schultz doing this to LeBeau in one episode...

Oh please, you people are use to uniforms with all sorts of ads on them... your 'footballers' run around the pitch looking like our NASCAR vehicles. So your opinion, like a scoreless soccer game, is 'nill! Would you feel better if the Bills had a huge OPEL patch on their jersey?

Agree. I will take last season's throwbacks or the uni's from 1973 (blue pants with the road white jersey).

Or Houston isn't during "hurricane season."

Living in the DC area, this next week will be painful...

Mrs. Silvius, a waitress at a truck stop (shocking) in Doswell, Va: "My children know not to come around when I'm on the front porch with my morning coffee, tending to my cows...because I'm having a cigarette," she said.

It wasn't until a couple of years ago, that I finally figured out what that song was about...

About ten years ago I got an Elvis Christmas CD that came with a pop-up Graceland, all decorated for the holidays...Classic!
