  1. If the Pope owns a 1-legged duck, does it poop in the woods?
  2. The QB has seniority, so make the new guy wear a jersey that reads "Yor A. Turnstile" to troll the other team's OLinemen as he pass rushes right past them.
  3. Guy's been a-moulderin' in the grave for years, and he's still an upgrade to our WR corpse. Glory Hallelujah! The Bills go marching on.
  4. Ever heard of James Lofton? https://www.profootballhof.com/players/james-lofton/biography/ Not sure exactly what Bills record was before he joined the team, but it was pre-Super Bowl run.
  5. Like the alien plant in Little Shop of Horrors, maybe he ate the kid. Can we arrange for him to have a late lunch with Brady?
  6. Tom, you sure rock that Michael Jackson one glove thing, but I can't moon walk, so let's just waltz.
  7. I think you're making my point. I agree with you that the ACLU has a history of pushing the envelope, if you will, for asserting and/or protecting the rights of individuals against the powerful, including but not limited to the government. If even an organization with such a history of advocating for individual rights says that the First Amendment protects against the government prohibiting individual speech, but provides no protection to a non-governmental employee whose speech violates a company's rules, that should tell you something. I don't know where you got "you can declare all you want about free speech." It sounds like we both believe that the First Amendment doesn't protect the Giants fans in the article from being kicked out of the stadium if their "speech" violated stadium rules about fan conduct. If the stadium security guys used excessive force to get them to leave the stadium (I don't know if they did or didn't - I suspect those fans did not peacefully agree to leave), that's independently wrong, but it has nothing to do with the First Amendment.
  8. Would you expect a senior staff attorney at the ACLU's Speech, Privacy and Technology Project to know about this stuff? From https://www.marketplace.org/2017/08/08/business/speaking-out-workplace "Lee Rowland, senior staff attorney at the ACLU's Speech, Privacy, and Technology Project, joined us to talk about the role the First Amendment has in cases like these and when companies can fire you. David Brancaccio: I know you tend to focus on public employee free speech rights. But if someone works for the private sector, help us understand what the law says about our ability to say what we want in the workplace. Lee Rowland: Well, the law doesn't say a lot about it. The First Amendment really only acts as a restraint on government. In fact, the first few words of the First Amendment are: Congress shall make no law restricting freedom of speech or of the press or religion. So when you work for the private sector and your employer is not the government, the Constitution gives you zero protection in terms of keeping your job based on what you say."
  9. If they strip out and don't count balls they consider uncatchable, why don't the catch rate % and drop rate % add up to 100%? Is the unaccounted for % a measure of how often the pass was neither droppped not caught, but knocked away by the defender after it hit the receiver's hands as the receiver was trying to "secure" the catch? If so, it would be interesting to see that number separately listed for each receiver. Not sure what else the unaccounted for % could possibly be.
  10. Might even wash his car in the tunnel? Is that what the kids are calling it these days?
  11. Calling that performance a "rope-a-dope" is an insult to the greatest rope-a-doper of all time:
  12. If you don't stand for the national anthem this year, we'll just reel you back into the tunnel.
  13. Well, since you specifically asked - - 1. Imagine what might have happened if they had named the town Blizzardburg: http://abc30.com/news/fire-destroys-historic-department-store-in-firebaugh/1742809/ 2. I hope the kid lights it up, but If he bombs and gets cut, at least he'll feel right at home in the stands: http://kingfm.com/5-tips-for-drinking-fireball-whisky-in-wyoming/
  14. Lots of people here apparently didn't get the joke re "craft service." This might help: https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=124245252 " . . . craft service assists not so much the stars, but the crew: "craft" workers such as grips, gaffers, property masters, costumers, electricians, hair and make-up artists. These days, the job is mainly known for providing workers and actors with lavish snacks — all day long."
  15. What? Home run throwback isn't even listed? [Ducks for cover]
  16. "Aim for a star - - if you miss you may hit a Bills WR !"
  17. We used to be fresh meat - - now we're processed !
  18. If the uniforms are rank, why don't we just wash them?
  19. I don't know if it's accurate, but nfl.com lists Kyle Williams at 303 lbs: www.nfl.com/player/kylewilliams/2506931/profile 307 is enough if he's quick
  20. Nobody talks about it much, but ear hole size is really important for a QB. When the stadium is rockin' and rollin' against the Patriots at home on Monday night this season, do you want our fate to be decided by a rookie QB with a small ear hole who can't understand the play call from the sidelines on 4th and 3 down 4 points with less than a minute to play? It won't be much fun at the game if everybody has to stop booing the Patriots and complaining about how blind Walt Coleman is so that Mr. Tiny Ear Hole can hear better. Just my 2 drachma.
  21. Hey coach, you already got the job, right? How about letting Dennison out of the trunk now?
  22. Lee Evans "Reincarnate?" First Hardy and now Evans? The playoff curse has lifted, but the WR curse has only just begun? I guess we still need to shoot Billy Buffalo.
