SDS

and may I add that the knife in the picture probably doesn't have a locking blade making it VERY dangerous for a child to use. Especially a 6 year old.

I don't know what the rule was then, but my son is in Scouts and the rule is age 8. He just got his 1st knife and achieved his whittling chip as laid out in the Bear Scout track. However, he was taught strict rules through the cub scouts, including the fact that the scout NEVER uses his knife w/o the knowledge of a parent or the Den leader. The fact that they are using the cub scout angle in the article is for sheer reader manipulation.

sweet post.

Not your best effort. How many SB winning coaches have there ever been? 20? 25? How many coaches have their been since it all started? 500? As for your last statement - it is exactly the opposite. The NFL is a QB/Coaching league and they don't get enough credit.

Nice catch.

Is that how valuable a time out is these days? It seems like every NFL team is on auto-pilot. If you can't get the play off - call a time out and save the 5 yards. Does anyone think that sometimes - saving the TO is worth more than the 5 yards?

This thread is the equivalent of saying we didn't land on the moon.

I did. At 9:26.

actually, not a single person sent a message to me. Everyone always assumes someone else had sent it by then.

better to deal with it at 2:00am then on my way to work.

but I would only want that from a specific source. I don't want anything obnoxious when I'm awake.

do you mean SMS? If so, that only gives me a "beep". I need a "ring" that will wake me up.

it has been replaced and we are obviously back on. Given this situation, does anyone know of an email to phone service that will call my phone when an email is received? This could have been taken care of last night, if I knew we were down. I receive email alerts, but that doesn't wake me up obviously.

actually, I thought you wrote "parking WITH my pregnant wife." My bad.

the damage is already done - don't you think?

seriously. I don't know who John was in his previous life, but he wronged a lot of people that's for sure.

those are wac...

I don't know. That hasn't been discussed. For now, his opinion will appear in the news section. and as a reminder, everyone is free to have their own opinion on anything Scott, John, or Tim writes - just express it respectfully.

I often wondered what things would be like if we were a perennial powerhouse or if we made it to the Super Bowl...

Yahoo, which purchased them for $2.9B back in 1999 - is pulling the plug.

Back in 1996, when I needed to find a way to recruit members for the newly formed Bills Backers of Central Maryland, I had just started to get into this "world wide web" thingy. With no money to take ads out in the Baltimore Sun and with potential members from Dan Valentine's BBML exhausted - I turned to this "world wide web" to try and get the word out. I downloaded a trial version of Claris Home Page and found free web hosting on GeoCities. I published my 1st website trumpeting the new BBCM. In Feb. 1997, it would be renamed Two Bills Drive and the files moved to a paid hosting service... If it wasn't for GeoCities and your free 5 MB websites, I doubt this would have ever occurred. Thank you!

Scott's 1st piece is here, but we already discussed it yesterday. In case you missed it: http://www.twobillsdrive.com/buffalo-bills...wer-in-buffalo/

Just a little announcement... Through Lori's help, we have been talking with former Rochester D&C columnist Scott Pitoniak about publishing his Bills related pieces here on TBD. After exchanging some emails and a nice talk, we decided it made sense to pursue this and try to give Scott's articles as much exposure as we can. Scott has been covering the Bills for 26 years and has retained his credentials with the Bills. I hope our readers find his pieces informative and worthwhile...
