Does anybody else remember the first couple weeks of preseason when Steve Johnson had "Steve Johnson" on the back of his jersey? I thought that was funny. My friends and I refer to him as Steve "Steve Johnson" Johnson

Huzzah for non sequiturs!

Quote from the article: So us drinking milk meant for a baby cow doesn't make sense, but us drinking milk meant for a baby human does? Lemme tell ya, I've been in Ithaca for a little over a year and I am tired of these fuggin PETA hippies trying to project their lifestyles onto everybody. Yes, hippies, do your own thing, but don't push it onto me. However, I can't disagree with "The breast is best"

Didn't you hear? 10 is the new legal drinking age...

This is another one of those issues where it seems like there's a different "correct" protocol every day. To me, the best thing you can do is always be vigilant keeping your children safe and just hope for the best. As is the case with the Bryants, clearly there are times when there is nothing you can do.

Wow, congratulations for picking on poor people and making them feel bad for needing money.

I think briefly getting benched in the second quarter on Sunday was all the wake up call that Jason Peters needed. In the second half, I didn't see very much pressure at all from the left side. Especially on the last 3 crucial drives, it seemed like Edwards had all the time he needed. I wasn't specifically looking for Peters during the game, but it seemed like he improved miles during the second half.

These kinds of things put everything in perspective. As elated as I would be for the Bills to win a Superbowl, I'd trade it so that Matt could have his child back. I'll be rooting for the Bucs in the NFC this year.

I say we're still under the radar. NFL teams don't analyze talent by logging onto nfl.com. If we've got a target on our backs, it's because coaches have looked at our tape and deemed us worthy of extra attention.

Experience doesn't mean they're good. Look at the defense. The average NFL experience of their starting 11 defenders is 5.8 years and they've given up an average of 39 points.

This past summer, I had to fill 2 hours of sports talk content on WVBR 93.5 Ithaca every Sunday, all by myself. Jim Rome does more than that pretty much every day. Take it from me, repetition helps. I don't fault him for it, and I have nothing but respect for what the guy does even if I don't agree with him much of the time.

Everything

I wasn't aware that we had been considering trading for him... I think, unlike the Jests, we aren't dumb enough to mortgage our future for one mediocre year

The word "depressed" was meant to be tongue in cheek.

http://www.ramsrule.com/theoriginalherd/dcboard.php The Rams' message board. I sorta feel sorry for them.

Wait, what's his email address? Maybe if we carpet bomb him with emails, he might consider showing up for a game, eh?

Thank you! Brad Butler might be the best guy on our O-line. Last year, Butler started every game at right guard and allowed one, count em, one sack all year. Compare that to Jason Peters' six. And, I don't believe Butler has allowed one this year, either. On top of that, we tend to run for more yards per carry to the right than to the left. But, for whatever reason, we insist on pounding the left more often. So why all the hating on Butler?

I agree that the Broncos are rather overrated at this point. I think that if any team could be called the class of the AFC (besides us, of course), it would be the Titans. They very well might have the best defense in the NFL and now that they seem ready to move on without Vince Young as their starter, I see that offense improving by leaps and bounds, especially with the RB tandem of LenWhale White uber-fast rookie Chris Johnson.

Well, we WERE going to finish 16-0 until you jinxed it and posted this thread.

The crowd was absolutely nuts, especially during the 4th quarter. Despite all the moments that pretty much silenced the crowd (fumbles, interception, the Higgins TD, Evans' offensive pass interference), it sure got back into form toward the end. I went to the game with my two brothers and my buddy (a Jets fan). Toward the end of the game, my buddy was chanting "Roscoe! Roscoe! Roscoe!" on Oakland's last punt and singing along to the Shout song on both of our TDs. After one game at Buffalo as a neutral party, I think he might have changed allegiances, he can't stop talking about the Bills.

This is really awesome. I'm going to be at the game on Sunday (the first one for about two years for me, i've been in college in Ithaca for a while). I get to see the Bills crush da Raidas, Bruce Smith's induction on the Wall, AND throwbacks? I'm a lucky SOB eh?

I agree. Hochuli has been a referee for 17 years now, and is a very well respected one. Yes, he made a mistake, and it happened to be a crucial moment in the game. Referees are humans too and he is merely unlucky that his mistake occurred with 1 minute left in a tight game and not 1 minute left in a laugher. My question is this...how come when Hochuli blows a whistle on what he believed to be an incomplete pass (mostly because one of his fellow refs signaled incomplete), he gets torn to pieces, but if he had done something that happens more often like missing an obvious hold, people would be saying "well, they can't get them all right"? Hochuli deserves criticism for this, but it was an honest mistake and nothing more. Those who send death threats to a man simply trying to do his job need to take a serious look in the mirror.

Wow dude, awesome job on that. I think it's safe to say you had everybody fooled.

Hey idiot...You must be one of those really cool guys who stalks opposing teams' message boards and makes irrational claims just to get people aggravated. I hope I can be like you one day, really awesome and all. Why don't you entertain us for a moment and tell us one REAL reason the Raiders could possibly beat the Bills? Something actually football related, please.

But Warner and (to a lesser extent) Collins have both proven at some point in their careers that they can be effective. Frerotte has just never been impressive anywhere he went (7 teams in his career). I wouldn't criticize Childress for replacing Tarvaris with Warner or Collins. Frerotte, on the other hand, is just replacing mediocrity with more mediocrity.
