The world can be a cruel place. Sad that fellow human beings are so often agents of that cruelty.

Each year until now, I've thought "Wow, that was already ___ years ago? It feels like yesterday." That sensation must have reached a tipping point because even though the memory remains visceral and clear, it now feels like a long time ago. Anybody else experiencing that?

We can look for reason after reason. At the end of the day, it's regression to the mean. Fitz is an NFL veteran who was a subpar/borderline starter before he got to Buffalo, and that he remains. Each one of his seasons bears this out both statistically and on a more abstract level of general efficacy. And hey, he shouldn't apologize for that. The fault lies in the Bills who decided the absolute pinnacle of his effectiveness was a good time to negotiate. These weren't the same exact guys who extended Dick Jauron after 6 games, but "he who doesn't learn history is doomed to repeat it."

The best D-linemen all have games where they look invisible. MAYBE except Demarcus Ware. I've not seen a Cowboys game and not noticed him. But my point is that one game doesn't really put a DE in a position where he needs to save face. A few might.

These Jets games have taken on an almost supernatural importance to Two Bills Drive. With New England, we expect to lose. With Miami, we expect to win and then the inevitable loss is almost funny. The Jets fall somewhere in between where it feels like we're matched up evenly...so when we get pasted to the turf it feels like an insult. The insatiable Tebow Media only makes things worse. Thankfully the whole Manning story took place.

How many current Fitz threads are there? I realize most people have frustrations to bear, but unless you've got a thought that's been thoroughly unexplored why not post in one of the other threads? The eventual consolidation is just more work for the mods.

Ain't these threads ridiculous? These guys must gloat when they call a coin flip right, jeezus.

Where's the thread where you own up to McKelvin being awful?

That was one of the questions that John Anderson (first winner of Who Wants to be a Millionaire?) had to answer, if I remember correctly.

What do you mean Spiller is out of excuses? He's a good player. "Fred Jackson is among the best running backs in the NFL" is the only excuse necessary.

Sorry to hear of your loss, Guffalo. I'll be thinking of you if the Bills do your Dad proud today.

I have a negative opinion of field turf. Look at how many of our guys specifically fall to lower body injuries.

If you want to make a living off of one-liners, you better be !@#$ing good at it. Mitch was the best. Better than Rodney Dangerfield. I'm with ya til the very end, Pooj. By which I mean that's an awesome list with a piece of **** at the very end.

Admittedly, I haven't seen Lucky Louie. Regarding Louie, it's best to think of it as an absurdist drama with comedic elements than a sitcom. A lot of people expect to belly laugh and are disappointed.

Wow, different strokes for different folks. I think Louie is one of the best shows on TV.

Yes, we do.

If the seed of an idea plants itself firmly, it can change your life. I believe that.

Yeah man, if you think Big Ben raped anybody you're either a eunuch or your Dad's not a strong guy.

Wait...what?

Camus is great.

Nobody said Kyle Williams because Kyle Williams already broke out

There are no synonyms, or so they say.

My...err...recommendation (!) is that somebody just tells Kevin how to cook venison before the syntax becomes too puzzling.

Dorin Dickerson.
