  1. no body is moving to LA. All these teams that want to extort new stadiums paid for by the public by threatening to move to LA The networks are better off without a home team in LA. A home team will generate TV black outs and severely limit the networks current flexibility in televising the best match ups each week in the nations #2 TV market. Extortion is OK if sanctioned by professional sports
  2. I would have thought that working out with theneigbor kids in Portland would have been enough to get JP ready.
  3. couldn't agree more. Your old firm is more worried about who will cover their but when you leave - they are already working on your replacement. time to take the revised offer from the old company and leverage it into a better deal with your new employer.
  4. there is no way they cut Lindell next week without his replacement proving he is a better on the field.
  5. how else can they buy enough votes to get re-elected?
  6. no NFL is moving to LA. Teams will only threaten to move to extort new stadium deals from thier current homes. The networks are worse off with a home team in LA since they lose flexibility of programming the best matchups and will suffer downtime from blackouts.
  7. Ben Coates as a safety is a major fallacy with Drew. Ben Coates was Drew's only option, just like Moulds was with the Bills. When teams finally schemed to take the TE away is when Drew lost his confidence. Drew has never and will never be able to effectively utilize an outlet receiver as his third or fourth option.
  8. The numbers can be combined to get 666, which has its own implications. The 1st five total 66 and add the digits of 42 to get the third 6.
  9. could be- ties in with giant pterodactyls ripping the plane apart and depositing the plane and the pirate ship on the island
  10. Drew will crap his pants in the big games on the road, which means even if they squeak into the playoffs, they won't be going very far.
  11. The book was titled "To Serve Man" an of course was interpretted by the humans as clear indication of the aliens friendly intentions.
  12. We would still be doomed with Drew. The ONLY reason he was cut was the embarrasment he caused at the hands of Teflon Tom's former employer. The Steeler embarassment was the only thing that could have overridden the self imposed embarrasment if TD had otherwise cut his prize acquisiton, especially after the ill-conceived pay "cut" from the prior off-season.
  13. The plane may contain some kind of key which has more bigger implications.
  14. My prior posting was in error. you reference the Bills Super Bowl era defense to support your arguments, however the inverse is true. In spite of the all-star caliber talent on that defense, it consistently ranked in the bottom 25% of the league. Part of the reason is that defense was manhandled by strong running teams due to the undersized DL, especially the nose tackle. To compound the problem, interior OL have increased in size by 25 -50 pounds from that era. Your argument that size does not matter is just a bit shortsighted. To maintain that Fletcher will be as productive in a 3-4 where the scheme requires him to take on 340 OGs is just asinine. He has been productive for the Bills because he has been protected by Adams and Williams.
  15. sounds like a good plan except 1. None of the DTs on the roster can effectively play nose tackle. If a 3-4 was to be the base D, they should have drafted Vince Wilfork last year. 2. None of the DEs on the roster are big enough or strong enough to play the run in a 3-4. 3. Bills only have 2 starting caliber LBs on the roster. 4. Even if they found another LB, Fletcher is way too small to play in a 3-4 Bills do show 3-4 looks at times, which is all they can afford to do. They don't have the proper personnel to run the 3-4 as their base defense.
  16. biggest addition in NY is the changing of their OC- Heimerdinger will vastly upgrade the entire offense.
  17. Dallas is guaranteed a playoff spot with Drew at QB He will just tear up the blitz-happy Eagles and Redskins, especially on the road. Exploiting the blitz is Drew's strongest attribute.
  18. Parcells is as overrated as Drew is. He is desperately trying to save his reputation with old vets. Vinnie, Eddie George, Drew He shipped his best WR, Antonio Bryant, out of town.
  19. good thing Drew plays well on the road!
  20. The biggest crime in Western NY are the buffoons the voters continually elect to public office.
  21. the object is not necessarily to spread them out in a pass happy offense. The object is to make them pay if they blitz. Parrish can take a quick slant on a blitz and turn it into a big gainer. Teams blitzed Bledsoe at will because he never generated a big play to force teh defense to change.
  22. more likely she didn't want to confront her rich daddy with the embarrassment of informing 600 wedding guests and 14 bridesmaids that the big spectacle was off.
  23. When rafters leave the island, they will discover that Johanna did not drown and is still alive. Proably being held in underwater complex by the reef. interesting foreshadowing by Locke bringing her name up.
  24. Can't see why you can't grasp the simple answer. $$$$ Top flight LTs are far more valuable than TEs because they are in such short supply, especially at the bargain basement price Td will be paying Peters. The TE position can be handled by committee if no one steps up. Similar strategy is not going to work at LT.
