    They want you to be Jesus
    Now go down on one knee
    But they want their money back
    If you're alive at thirty-three
    And you're turning tricks
    With your crucifix
    You're a star
    Ooh child

     

    Of course you're not shy
    You don't have to deny love
    Hold me, thrill me, kiss me, kill me

    Proper Gear for Game Sunday?

    Definitely, prepare for rain and/or wet, sloppy snow. Make sure you have waterproof boots. In this kind of weather, I usually bring one set of footwear for the tailgate, then change socks and boots before I head in. 

     

    I like to have one extra layer I can put on in the stadium.

     

    Gloves, winter hat are a must.

     

    We tailgate with a heated trailer, so we keep all our outer gear inside there and it's toasty when we head into the stadium. You can also keep it in your car and run the heat before you get dressed to head in.

    All good points.  I also make sure to have a change of clothes for when I get back to my vehicle after the game as it is no fun wearing wet gear on my 3+ hour drive home...

    I did find it odd that the Bills official email sent this out to fans the other week, a sponsored ad for battery operated clothing, while their weekly "What You Need to Know for Game Day" email always specifically says these items are prohibited.

     

    • Battery operated clothing (socks, jackets, etc.) are prohibited.

    Are there any bands/music acts from whom you like just one song?

    It is interesting how many people are giving one hit wonders as their answers.  I'm going with a couple of very well known bands and one in particular that will probably having me dodging tomatoes, and it is probably even more surprising that it's these two bands as I am Canadian and I might have to forfeit my passport if the authorities ever found out.

     

    First one...great song, meh band

     

    And here's the second...ducking those tomatoes now!  I only like this tune because I don't have to deal with Geddy Lee's screeching vocals!

    First one the pops into my head is Pink Floyd.

     

    I enjoy the albums with Syd Barrett.

    I LOVE the albums post-Barrett, but only those which include both Waters and Gilmour.

    I (again ... this is purely opinion) think anything post-Waters is garbage.

     

     

    I generally agree but I feel that the "garbage" statement is a bit harsh.  The Wall was really the last true Floyd album with all four of the lads, and that's where the music effectively changes.

    The Final Cut was basically a Waters solo project with the Floyd members playing backing.  Then we had A Momentary Lapse of Reason which was Gilmour's solo album in Floyd clothing.

    Finally in the 90's came The Division Bell which was more of a return to the band concept as Gilmour worked on it with Mason and Wright, only missing Roger and his (outstanding) lyrics.

    These final three "Floyd" albums all have their own high points and are far and away better than anything the guys released as true solo efforts.  I have grown to really appreciate Division Bell over the years as time has been kind to it...it is a great mellow listen.

     

    It's quite interesting to see how a band seeing that their time together is coming to and end can differ with Floyd compared to The Beatles as @Logic pointed out above.  I agree 100% that The Beatles best work resided on those final albums and truly continued on in their solo efforts...that group was just too talented with too many egos to make it work any longer.  Floyd on the other hand...those guys just hated Roger and it's a wee miracle they were able to make such great music together for as long as they did.

    Week 9: Bills at Jets - Sunday Nov. 6th 1pm

    Oh no!!!

     

    The worst referee in the NFL is reffing the Bills Jets game.  You may remember Land Clark from the Jaguars game last year.  Had no control over the game and anytime the Bills were close to crossing the 50 yard line a phantom bs flag was thrown.

     

    Only chance Jets have is with Land Clark reffing this game.

     

    Land Clark. The cleverest species of them all.

    Maybe I didn't treat you
    Quite as good as I should
    Maybe I didn't love you
    Quite as often as I could
    Little things I should have said and done
    I never took the time

    You were always on my mind

    I'm curious what they count as primetime games. Are they including post season here?

     

    Pro football reference has him with a 6-3 record in primetime games which is under the minimum of 10 games in the quoted stat. And a passer rating of 105.3, below the quoted 108.6

     

    Pro football reference is using 7pm or later kickoffs as primetime games.

     

    I have Josh as 9-3 in 7:00 or later starts since the start of the 2020 season, includes playoffs.  Now those are 7:00 Eastern time and some games were out west, maybe that is skewing PFR's numbers?

     

    Also, how great must it be for a Northern California kid to be on these lists with Montana and Young?

    Classic love story in the vein of Hey Joe?

     

     

    Well, when you're sitting back in your rose pink Cadillac
    Making bets on your Kentucky derby days
    I'll be in my basement room with a needle and a spoon
    With another girl to take my pain away

    Take me down little Susie take me down
    Cause I know you think you're the Queen of the Underground

    Send me dead flowers every morning
    Send me dead flowers by the mail
    Send me dead flowers to my wedding

    And I won't forget to put roses on your grave

    Bills @ Lions - Thanksgiving game - Tailgate/Pregame?

    in The Stadium Wall

    Posted

    I'll be there too...last time I was at a Bills game in Detroit was in 2006 and there was tailgating all over in the various lots.  Downtown stadium, so the parking is spread out a bit.  We always park in the Greektown area for Tigers games (the stadiums are across the street from each other) and it is a short walk from there...you shouldn't have a problem finding Bills fans.  Greektown is also a good spot to eat and drink pre/post-game.  Fishbones is my personal favourite.

    Bills usually wear their white throwbacks and reds at home once each.  May do it in NE, as the Pats are wearing throwbacks that night.  Reds could be any remaining home game.

     

    My money is on Miami for the throwbacks...check out the gameday hatpin.
