  1. You magnificent bastard.
  2. Ha! That's always my knee jerk reaction too.
  3. I agree PSLs are ridiculous. I hate the concept. But it's not exactly new. Hell, big time college programs have been doing it for years. You need to make a gift in the thousands of dollars to the scholarship fund just to have the right to buy tickets. And as someone else pointed out, it's only 11% of the seats. We may get them in Buffalo, but there's no way they're as pricey.
  4. That's a great read, thank you.
  5. I was a senior in college at Geneseo, likely drunk. Gah! So it was HER fault!
  6. "You're not going to be a total dingus like the last guy, right?"
  7. That's awesome. Now we just need eyes at Tempo. And someone spotting deers.
  8. I have a buddy closely connected with SU football. He was saying pretty much all of these exact same things about Marrone 18 months ago. I can't believe he has risen to this level and pays so much attention to local media. Gotta let that sh#t go, St. Dougie.
  9. I kind of agree with this. The problem with the chef/groceries metaphor is that any decent professional chef can make a good meal out of the most basic of ingredients.
  10. A hearty round of applause and all the best wishes for his future endeavors.
  11. When a reporter asked him at a post game presser: "It seems like you're more grumpy after a win. Would you say that's a fair assessment?"
  12. Step 1. Start nonsense thread. Step 2. ??? Step 3. Profit!
  13. She just looks like she would be mean to me. I vote for home playoff game.
  14. Reading comprehension is hard.
  15. As long as we're stating platitudes about FSU QBs, name for me all those that have been successful in the NFL. I'm not sayin'. I'm just sayin'.
  16. Having worked in commercial radio in a major market, I have a bit of expertise in this area. My problem with these guys at WGR is the contempt they have for the audience. Yes, "Joey from Williamsville" calling for the umpteenth time to say "hey how you doing?" and make the same dumb points over and over again gets tiresome. And yes, sometimes insulting the audience's intelligence can make for very listenable radio. In their case it does not. Their contempt is palpable, and their wit is dull. But they're the big fish in a small drainage pond behind the McKinley Mall, so whaddaya gonna do?
  17. You answered your own question. Nattering Nabobs of Negativity by definition won't pump up our own players.
  18. I understand the job he took was a new one, on an audition basis for the Cuse paper. I hope they decide to keep him on. Analysis aside, he's just a far better writer than some of the yokels here in ROC. I didn't know he came from UMissouri. That's a high power J-school for sure.
  19. I think he retired about one microsecond before he decided to slide a yard short of the first down in Denver.
  20. Reasonable Pats fans I know (yes, they do exist) say the exact same thing. The Bills are the future of the conference right now. Hard as it may be for some of us here to believe. I'm very interested to see where Rex lands.
  21. How can you freak out about Sammy after one season, his rookie season, with a QB and O-line situation that could be described as sh#t-tastic at best?
  22. Exactly what I was thinking, like the gig Holmgren got with the Browns a few years back. Kind of like a president/GM/Football Czar kind of thing. Of course, we all hope it would work out better than Holmgren did with the Browns.
  23. Yeah, Landon Cohen.
  24. Ha! [runs off to punch someone for shaking my hand too hard.]
  25. I'm with you on this. We are all angry at this point, but the progress is undeniable.
