  1. Expect some foul language, yes. But people take it to the extreme and use the sporting environment as a crutch while conveniently forgetting they're out in public. I was at a Bills-Raiders game and a Raiders fan was there with his daughter who was probably 10 or 11. She was dressed up in Raiders make up and all, and to any rational person it was kinda cute. To a couple of drunken idiots, though, she was public enemy #1 and they called her a "little B word" twice before the dad stood up and confronted them. Like most idiots who would pick on a little girl, they backed down. That's just one example of people going beyond just venting when it comes to cursing. There are plenty of others. Why should being at a football game make people forget they're still a part of humanity. Would anybody call an innocent 10 year old girl a little B word at the grocery store or the post office?
  2. I think people should use discretion. If there happens to be a young kid in the seat in front of you, just cool it off a little with the swearing. Not dropping F-bombs really shouldn't alter the game experience.
  3. Hopefully we can add drafting Dareus to the list of positives. Help me understand though...trading Evans is a negative before we see the results, but we aren't allowed to judge signing Merriman, Barnett and Morrison? Kinda seems like you're cherry picking.
  4. It's definitely a great song. Kinda makes me sad, but in a cathartic way.
  5. Eagles are definitely overrated IMO. They have a lot of talent in the glamour positions, but may fall short when it's time to get down and dirty in the trenches.
  6. Not to be a conspiracy theorist, but has anybody ever actually seen Peter Pan, Trent Edwards and dog14787 in the same place at the same time? Sorta makes ya think...
  7. You got that right. I wonder where DJ's next stop at the hot chick buffet is going to be. Emmanuelle Chriqui, perhaps? That's who I'd shoot for. My link
  8. Good news! Here's to hoping Kyle is a Bill for his career and Dareus is a fitting partner in crime
  9. If Moran wants to improve as a writer, learning how to express himself concisely would be a good start. The length of his apology steals from whatever genuine contrition exists and screams "Look! I'm a good guy! I'm apologizing! Respect me!" That said, it was a much nobler gesture than just slinking into the shadows.
  10. No, the Mendoza Line is 50%. 60% is rather decent.
  11. Oh, that's a very good point. Regardless, I get the feeling that most people thought he'd fade into obscurity after being waived.
  12. I think Shawne sincerely appreciates the fact that the Bills brought him in last year and gave him a shot when a lot of other people/organizations had written him off as a lost cause. So even when another injury ended his season, there was a sense of loyalty there. Now I think that gratitude is manifesting itself in a much improved LB corps and I couldn't be happier about it!
  13. Assuming we signed him for relative pennies, would that be such a bad thing?
  14. Sorry guys. Had to try it after somebody brought it up earlier in the thread.
  15. Ugh. Gailey says Dareus will miss significant time. No further word yet.
  16. Haha relax, it was a South Park reference. I wouldn't have said anything if you didn't use the words "time to go".
  17. You think it's time to go for Spiller? You should go to his house and burn a lower-case "t" to let him know.
  18. Tennessee basketball is perhaps the only major program where the women are a bigger ticket than the men. That's owed 100% to Pat Summitt. This is some really sad news.
  19. I AM THE ONE WHO KNOCKS! that mini-rant of Walt's sent a chill up my spine, brilliant stuff.
  20. 1:33 in the video is absolutely priceless.
  21. Interesting take. He just doesn't strike me as an organic character, especially on a show that's ostensibly about the darkness of the human spirit.
  22. I agree. I think the team will show marginal improvements in a lot of different ways from last year and finish somewhere in the territory of 7-9, and that next year's draft will hopefully do for the offense what this year's seems to have done for the defense.
