  1. I don't know, and I doubt anyone does because Rex Ryan clearly calls the shots on defense. Who knows what the defense would look like if Dennis had complete control? Edit: Similarly, how could one properly evaluate Curtis Modkins' performance as OC under Gailey?
  2. Why would Thurman be the fall guy? He is just a figurehead DC, and everybody knows it. Firing him would be an insult to the collective intelligence of the fan base. I think Crossman gets shown the door, and I see a gutting of the roster coming. Perhaps, someone gets brought in as a "czar" consultant type role. Edit: Sorry, to respond directly to the OP...I could see Rob brought in as a position coach, but surely not as DC.
  3. A face that could make a train take a dirt road. Git in there, Pooj.
  4. My wife sometimes lacks a sense of humor! When she buys my Mother-in-law a Fitbit for Christmas, and while wrapping it I jokingly refer to it as a "Fatbutt," how dare she be angry with me??!! Pure comedy gold...
  5. Thrilled about this. I recently listened to an archived interview with Neil Young. I think it was from fall of 2014. One of the best interviews I have ever heard. Incredible hearing about his beginnings, sharing an apartment with Rick James, his experience and falling out with CSN&Y, how he was disgusted with all the cameras at Woodstock, and his time partying with Charles Manson. Howard has to be one of the best interviewers of all time. I really liked Howard's "sting operation" and subsequent ban of Bobo this summer too. Also, Bigfoot pressing the red button to nuke Vermont was hilarious. What a great show...
  6. Yikes. A rare no for me. That poor, poor child!
  7. Great! What about Taylor Swift? There are major holes in my morning yard work playlist.
  8. It's the Vice-Treasurer of the Vermont Shower Club, actually. I use the Spotify pay service. It costs me 8 bucks a month and I can listen to whatever I want, whenever I want. There are a few artists that don't allow their music on Spotify though (Beatles). You can make playlists, and even download them so you can play where you don't get Wifi/reception. I love it...worth every penny. Edit: How do you like your speaker? Good as advertised?
  9. Would love to see Buffalo draft Mississipi St. WR, De'Runnya Wilson. Seems to me like a less polished Kelvin Benjamin with huge upside.
  10. Undoubtably a good depth player, but does he fit the scheme? Would he be a 3-4 DE or OLB? I thought he was more of a 4-3 DE.
  11. Good points and I like O'Brien, but IMO, COY has to go to either Rivera or Arians.
  12. Hmmm...I think you kind of dodged my question re: Shady expressing that he wanted to be somewhere else. I don't think the team chemistry, or lack thereof, should fall on his shoulders. I attribute that to poor coaching and frustration due to losing. McCoy's "antics" prior to, during, and after the Philly game were a mistake on his part, but a small sample of what I thought was a very good season for him.
  13. Why do you need gifs and vines? Do you actually pay attention to the individual players on defense? Under Schwartz, Dareus was allowed to penetrate at will and rush the passer. Under Rex, he is asked to occupy blockers and hold the point of attack. Basically a run stuffer...and he has done his job very well. Obviously, both he and Mario were grossly misused by Rex.
  14. Textbook case of Affluenza.
  15. I wondering if you could provide any examples of how/when McCoy expressed that he'd rather be somewhere else. I recall his reaction after the trade happened, but I chalked that up to him feeling betrayed. Learned of his trade via the media rather than from team officials. Not trying to call you out. I just thought he has been a pretty good teammate.
  16. I don't claim to be a football expert, but isn't Lawson a perfect 3-4 OLB? I know he is advancing in years, but again, at the very least you're talking about a reasonably priced depth player.
  17. I think Urbik's salary is reasonable for what he is asked to be. A decent veteran back-up interior lineman. I thought he actually held his own pretty well this year, IMO. I think he is worth keeping around.
  18. Common man! Everyone knows if Buffalo sent Bob Woods to the Eagles he would have gotten 70 receptions for 1300 yards and 12 TD's this year. Kiko would have intercepted 4 passes against the Colts, but then his surgically reconstructed knee would have popped open like a party favor in week 2. Then what kind of thread would you have started? Seriously though, I wonder what pick they wanted along with Woods?
  19. Party at my parents house. Lots of family and friends...about 30 people. Dad does prime rib, steamers, shrimp, and all the fixins. My grandmother used to do 7 types of seafood (Sicilian thing), but she is getting older now so she only does her famous calamari dish. Mom does like 8 different types of deserts plus Italian cookies. Lots of drinks, laughs and good food. After everyone leaves, we bring all the presents down and put them under the tree. My Father and I enjoy a nice cigar on the back deck in front of the fireplace if it's not too cold. Great times and lots of traditions.
  20. Similar thing happened to my IPhone recently and I had to restore to factory settings then back up from the ICloud. Well, turns out my ICloud was full and hadn't backed up since March 2015. I lost everything since that time...pictures of my kids, messages, contacts. Everything. Had to purchase more ICloud space so it wouldn't happen again.
  21. Wouldn't it be fun to knock the Jets out of the playoffs in week 17? Tank schmank!
  22. Billions weren't discovered until the early 90's.
  23. The worst part about the injuries was that I lost a few key players for the season, but was never bad enough to benefit from the waiver wire. So frustrating.
