Finally someone else who's suffered through that schlock! That's human beings. I can hate, I shudder to call it this, art. I'm not trying to get it banned or anything just expressing an opinion about how horrid it is.

Dude, it's been common knowledge since Nostradamus wrote about it. "When the bright sun flashes those who hide in the cooler climes shall survive the intense heat and survive the great blast of fire."- Nostradamus It is a lot better than it's given credit for. Plan 9 definitely resides in the so bad it's great file and may even be at the top of that list.

When healthy and that brings up one of the problems I have with this type of grading system. Buffalo Bills They surprised some by taking Donte Whitner eighth in the first round, but he's been better than expected. John McCargo, the defensive tackle they took later that round, wasn't so good. They did hit on safety Ko Simpson (fourth), defensive tackle Kyle Williams (fifth) and guard Brad Butler (fifth). They are all starters. Third-round pick Ashton Youboty hasn't panned out. Grade: B+ Youboty hasn't panned out due to injuries. When he's been healthy he's been a stud. So is he a hit for the Bills or a miss? IMO, the only time injuries should be factored into the grade is if a player had a long history of injuries in college and IIRC, Youboty never did. The other thing is that on deeper teams guys that could be starters are sitting behind more established vets and then leave to be starters during FA. I know Turner isn't from the 2006 draft but because he was second string behind LT was that a good pick or a bad pick? Grading by the number of starters who come out of a draft sometimes isn't a good way to evaluate a draft. OT of grades from that draft but, I think Ko Simpson has gotten a raw deal. He had an injury twp years ago that takes a couple of years for a player to regain everything they had prior to the injury. I think they should keep him to at least fight for a job. At the very least he would be a strong backup. JMO

How about; "common sense, common sense, common sense" Me

We may be jumping the gun (no pun intended) and the Bills will have to see if the pieces fit. If they use Nelson in this offense then that would mean three rookies would be on offense and they tend to hit the wall late in the season. I was surprised by that too. If I had a nickel for everytime a woman called me that!! The helmet receivers should help with that I'd think.

Swine flu back at it...blamed for 60 deaths

It's been nice knowing ya. Maybe it's better that you pass away before another Bills season. All I get is the damn hompage! Why in the hell should I do your work for you!!! -
It's hard for me to tell what you're saying. Do you like him or not like him? Not gonna happen unless the Gods decide to let snow fall in hell. Do do I he's a good kid. I believe vet min is $750,000 a year. yay, another person who hates JP threads comes into a JP thread to say how much they hate JP threads.

I know. It's J. Childs. I thought you didn't get the Jackie Chiles reference. I don't recall Julia Childs ever having esq. after her name.

When Indianapolis Colts President Bill Polian kept hearing coaches talk about the importance of size, he decided to put the theory to a test, comparing winning percentages to the average weight of players on each team over about 10 seasons. "We found higher weight had no bearing on winning — none," said Polian, who was the general manager in Buffalo when the Bills played in four Super Bowls. "There was a lot of noise about 'Big is the answer.' We tested it. It's not valid." That study is only for avg. weight. So RB, QB, DB, LB and others are included in the sample. Along the lines size is very important IMO. If a 275 pound DE is going against a 320 pound lineman all game it can wear him out. Of course the lineman would have to have mobility as well so size isn't the only thing. A smaller guy who can move and leverage better than a big guy is obviously more valuable. If a team can find a big guy who can move so much the better. Being small doesn't affect ability as much as some people think but a big guy who can move is always better than a small guy who can move. JMO

Mike Williams Comeback Tour 2009

They must have sewn his mouth closed. -
That kid is gonna be scarred for life after that thing got a hold of him.
-
So then her mother must have passed on because they would have included her in the synopsis. Just curious thanks for the info.

Besides her father, Bogdan is survived by two sisters, Christy Wilson Hoffman and Edith Wilson. I don't recall Ralph's wife passing. Is that just a mistake?

Mike Williams Comeback Tour 2009

"I realized my gift is in football," Williams said. "I was built for it. I know I can play this game. If you're not... utilizing those abilities, you are a fish out of water. And that's what I was in the business world. There was something missing. It does come down to a choice. Do you love it? You've got to choose to love this game. The grind, the time away from family, you've got to choose to love that." You don't choose to love that you fat azz! You have to be competitive and actually love the competition. Another way to look at that is that Dockery was his babysitter. He won't participate in this weekend's minicamp, but the Redskins hope he can lose 35 to 40 more pounds to reach his playing weight for the organized team activities that start June 1. Yeah, good luck with that. -
J.P. Losman - QB Apr. 22 - 5:47 pm et The Broncos may show interest in free agent J.P. Losman if they don't draft a quarterback this weekend, a source tells the Bills' website. Bills writer Chris Brown says Denver has had interest in Losman "for some time," but it cooled after Chris Simms was signed. The Panthers have also shown interest. Losman, and Rex Grossman, should find work after the draft. Source: buffalobills.com I really like JP a lot. I feel bad for the kid because the tried so hard but just couldn't wrap himself around the job. I'd really like to see him get another shot somewhere. The Broncos didn't draft a QB until round 6. If the Bronco's don't want him then where does he go? Is a 6th round draft pick going to keep JP from going to the Broncos? Is the lack of interest in him because he's holding out for a starting job or is it because nobody wants him in any position?

The other special effects in the movie seemed good to you? The graveyard is really really convincing, especially after Tor Johnson kicks over the headstone.

I had always been curious about that too.
