Cynical

More like special waffle batter ...

FYI: Age of Consent in Alabama is 16. However, this should not be confused with age of Majority which is 19. (Which means a person is technically still considered a minor when they are 18). To understand how bizarre this is, an 16-18 yr old can consent to having sex with a person 19+. But, if the parent(s) of the 16-18 yr old says "No, they cannot have sex with the 19+ yr old", then the 19+ could find themselves in legal trouble if sexual relations continued with the younger person. And don't get me started on the marriage laws.

You are in favor of the philosophy of drafting a QB every year, but then state teams need to have patience and " ... I think a lot more would succeed if they are brought along slowly." Pick one, because drafting a QB every year does not imply patience. Its the opposite, especially with no minor league system in place.

In your scenario, do these teams stop drafting a QB once they have a franchise QB? If so, what happens when they determine a QB like Colt McCoy is a franchise QB? How many years do they give him before pulling the plug?

So yes, while not the 2000 Ravens, any attempt to minimize the impact the D had last year in this team reaching a winning record for the first time in a decade has to be met with a healthy dose of skepticism. The 2014 Bills ranked 18th overall in points for (21.4 ave) and 4th overall in points allowed (18.1 ave). Just for giggles, I looked up the 18th overall in points allowed. That would be the Steelers at 23.0 If the Bills D was "average" last year, I sincerely doubt the Bills go 9-7 last year. Even with Watkins being on the team.

That's a good question, and like most people, if you ever find the answer out, please let me know. But, according the NYS Drivers manual, there is this: "Being Passed If another vehicle passes you on the left, decrease speed slightly and keep to the right. When the vehicle has safely passed and is ahead of you, continue your normal speed. If you find that you are being passed on the right by many vehicles, you should move into the right lane and allow them to pass you on the left." http://dmv.ny.gov/about-dmv/chapter-6-passing As for what is considered aggressive driving: just the fact somebody else is driving besides "them" will piss people off.

Not really. NY state requires "slower" moving traffic to keep right. The "slower" definition is not well defined.

Not buyINg it.

And the myth continues to this day, 15 years later.

Jaurons' overall record as HC is 60-82. He had 1 winning season out of 9. He compiled that record across 2 different teams. I am sure his friends and family are happy he is such a nice guy. Hypothetical situation: You are the HC of an NFL team. You are standing on the sideline watching the game, and you notice the DB on the other team has been blitzing your QB consecutively play after play. Question: How many times does that have to happen before you hunt down your OC, and ask him "WTF"?

Well, if we are going to focus on "original" cities: Cardinals need to go back to Chicago, and Chiefs back to Dallas. IIRC, neither Jacksonville nor Charlotte had a professional team prior to the Jags or Panthers. Since neither team have been no other place since their inception, both teams are in their "original rightful" homes. So, I do not get why they have to cease to exist?

Except TD wanted Lewis, and Lewis was TD's first choice. Lewis kept dragging out the process, and would not commit. TD had no choice but to move on.

He was a position coach - Defensive Back. Lawrence was the DC. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1984_Buffalo_Bills_season#Staff I had completely forgotten we had Monte Kiffin on staff as LB coach.

And how would you have kept him? His prior two HC stints in the NFL did not tun out so well. The Patriots regressed every year under him. By his last year, the players were being openly critical of him. Going to the college ranks was the best thing for him. IMO, if he stayed in the NFL in some capacity after the Pats, he would never have gotten another HC gig.

Yeah, but different circumstances. When Levy took over the GM spot, Malarkey knew he wasn't Marv's guy. Short of winning the SB, he knew he was gone when the season ended. Also, Malarkey did get another HC gig. He was the HC of the Jaguars for one year. It will be a long time before Marrone gets another shot, if ever.

I have to go with Hank Bullough and Dick Jauron. And knowing that Jaroun started his coaching career under Bullough makes the hiring of Jaroun that much worse.

Right. Apparently you missed the past 15 years, because according to the "local" experts here on TBD, there was no way no how the Bills would finish with less than x amount of wins as predicted by those "national" experts. They just did not know the team like we did. Let's not forget the "Let's hold the experts accountable" threads that appeared from time to time before a season started, because TBD knew better than those "national" experts! Those same threads were quickly abandoned and forgotten once the season got under way. I take it the compass wasn't properly calibrated during those times? Like most sports boards, any negative analysis by the media is derided by the members, while positive analysis is hyped. If this team started off 9-0 and then lose 3 straight, I would be able to see the mushroom cloud over WNY from here in the Atlanta area.

Wow, reach much? As a Tebow "hater" (for lack of a better term), you really need to look at the religious conservatives who seem to hold him up as some kind of saint or savior. Any criticism against "player Tebow" is somehow magically transformed into criticism of "religious Tebow", and by extension, religion itself. That's probably due to the religious conservatives seeing Tebow's ability and his success being a result of his religion.

I wonder where he will be moving after this year.

That would depend on the individuals involved. Some people absolutely refuse to help anybody else because they fear of losing their position to that person. Other people are more than willing, because they realize mentoring can be a 2 way street.

This is one of many reasons why you don't let friends wear orange.

If I was a betting man, probably more along the lines of seeing so many of them failing because the DIY did not install it right. The concept and installation of the product is pretty simple if the directions and recommendations are followed. Short cutting the directions or recommendations is not a good thing unless you really know what the hell you are doing.

I replaced my main water line between the meter and my house about 3-4 years ago. Both ends use quick connects. No problems since then.
