My office mate just got the 2011 Sonata a couple months ago. She loves it, though there was a recall, something to do with the steering. As for the Jetta, I had a 2002. First year they had moved production to Mexico. Had a lot of electrical problems. From what others on this string have said it sounds like they have since fixed those problems but I'll never own another VW. Currently have an 07 Civic. No problems (first year of the new body style, often times this leads to a recall or two.)

just like the steelers to go for a meaningless field goal on fourth and two with 5 minutes left in the game...you're right, this is good scotch

Took some work but (I think) I have it figured out. We would have been 10-6 along with Denver and NYJ. This makes it 3 way tie breaker. You need to look at two things here, 3 way tiebreaker for teams not within the same division, then 3 way tie breaker for teams within the same division. The 3 way tie breaker for teams from different divisions says you eliminate teams within the same division first. The 3 way breaker for then takes effect and common opponents appears ahead of conference record. Weird I know. I could be wrong. First time for everything:-) http://www.nfl.com/standings/tiebreakingprocedures

Jets lost in OT but my earlier post said to the Saints, it was actually the Rams. If the Bills had won they were in.

At the post game tail gate we were listening to the Saints drive down the field and kicking an OT field goal against the Jets that would have put us in the playoffs had we won the game... said to my buddies "we could be so pumped right now"

was at the game but didn't go on to the field...still have the beer stein with the team roster that I got for Christmas that year

Can't imagine anyone would want to trade up to the number one spot unless Luck comes out

My brother got jersey of his choice or personalized for his birthday. He asked for personalized, #23 with the name "Hit and Run". They called the next day and said sorry, they couldn't do that so he had 76 / Smerlas. Don't know if it makes a difference but he's had club seats the past several years.

In order: Bills, Duke BB, Sabres (1 out of 3 ain't good)

I like Stanzi too, should be able to get him early the fourth and address other needs withthe first 3 picks.

If memory serves Suh wasn't a household name until mid November last year. But I get your point. If Luck doesn't come out no one is worth what the # 1 pick will cost unless someone emerges soon.

This was the only reason I could see for the challenge...otherwise it was a bad decision

A few weeks ago I posted that I would rather New England have a third round pick in their pocket then Moss on their roster (as well as from New England's view point a three productive seasons plus a third round pick in the pocket is pretty good value for a fourth round pick). Why am I now thinking NE will have both the third round pick they got for Moss plus Moss himself...

Try telling that to Succop http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/2010103103/2010/REG8/bills@chiefs#tab:watch

Good work on who gets first dibs, now can you find out how long we get to put in a claim? Wondering if we still have a shot at Thaddeus Gibson even though SF has put in a claim. Haven't been able to find that info.

Agree with all your points, especially the highlighted. Even the super bowl Bills got killed in KC during the regular season (twice I think) before returning the favor at home during the playoffs.

I'm guessing McCargo gets cut before Maybin...no shortage of first round busts

Next year would be the fourth. How could I forget about Edwards so quickly?...if only I could forget about this past decade as just as fast...

In spite of (in case no one noticed) swirling winds all day Fitz managed to throw for over 200 and run for another 40+. As has been pointed out by several on this thread, we are not losing games because of QB play. He deserves to play out the season and see how he develops. Spending another first round pick on QB would mean in the past 12 years we would have spent 4 firsts, 1 second, 1 fourth, and 1 fifth round pick at qb. Not to mention a seventh this year. I really like Ricky Stanzi of Iowa. Should be available at the top of the fourth. 19 td's vs 2 int this year. Good size and decent feet. Comes from a winning tradition. We'd be able to address more pressing needs in with the first three picks, and not invest too much to a top pick. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/player/profile?playerId=188298

Patents are both expensive and time consuming. Click below (or copy and paste into your browser if the link isn't working), might give you some ideas for getting stimulus money. A friend of mine's sister got like 5K to start a candle company, she's not the sharpest knife in the drawer and her candles are ugly, if she got money it can't be that difficult. Good Luck. http://www.governmentgrants.com/business-grants/business-start-up-grants

slow nite...bought 45 big bars, have 38 left.

I'm getting numb to it

The predecessor of the colonoscopy was the Barium xray. You didn't drink the white crap the night before, you took 4 tblsp of castor oil. Talk about disgusting, would rather have 4 gallons of the white crap then 4 tblsp of castor oil. As for the xray itself, most pain I've ever been in (and I had Eric Woods compound fracture injury in 76). That was enough to get me to change a meat and potatoes based diet to a fruit and vegetable based diet.

The drugs were indeed great but they have a terrible side affect...they wear off!! (not until the next day though

If Mike Williams worked as hard as Maybin he would have been at least serviceable as he showed last year for Washington until injured. Maybin tries hard, he just isn't a very good football player. Not sure who this makes the bigger bust but at least the coaches found a way to get Williams on the field.
