  1. I've only rewatched 2 losses: Super Bowl XXV and the Chiefs 14 seconds game. That's it.
  2. Oh, come on!!! He's either immediately lit up or diving on every one of these catches.
  3. I thought Bowie's wife found him in bed with Jagger. At least that was the story I always heard as a kid. Anyhow, like you said, let people live how they wanna live, so long as no one is hurt. I lived and went to school in Los Angeles and had some friends in wilder circles (like famous AVN starlet types...lol). It wasn't uncommon for guys who didn't "use" to be "holding" for when girls came to party.
  4. Crazy that EJ is only 35. If he were any good, he could still be on a roster somewhere.
  5. It's a regular part of my weekend routine: Saturday: little league, honey-dos and grilling with the family Sunday: Attend church, pink cocaine, boats and h.o.e.s.
  6. His teammates weren't kidding. Lock up your daughters, sisters and wives with this guy around. Great talent, but seemingly very troubled and immature human being.
  7. I wish it were that easy. I've been a Bills fan since '83 (or really since birth) when my father picked me up from daycare and couldn't find a sitter for me (Mom worked nights), so he left a note for my mom and dragged me to a Monday night game against the Jets (yes, you can bet my dad was in the doghouse with Mom when we got home). I don't remember much from the game (I know we got killed and it broke some sort of record for fights and arrests) except for walking through the section tunnel and seeing the bright green field under the lights - it felt like magic! Turned out to be the first of probably 75-85 games I attended over the next 12 years. Wow. How did this come to be and what was your first game?
  8. I don't think I've been there since the message board shut down. Found this place and haven't left.
  9. We lost Cooper and Hollins. Say what you will about their production, but they were both veterans who knew their roles and did things the right way. If Coleman and Kincaid don't step up (or God forbid they backslide), we'll need big contributions from Moore and Palmer.
  10. The shoulder area and width of his upper back look suspect, but it's hard to tell from a few seconds of a guy sitting at a podium. Did he just come from a lifting session? Could just be he's gotten bigger naturally and he's pumped after a workout. If he's on the juice, it will catch up with him eventually either via injury (see David Boston, Cushing, etc.) or suspension.
  11. Finally saw it with the wife this past weekend. Kind of half great (build up, music and ancestor scene) and half meh (once it went full on From Dusk to Dawn through the denouement) but I'd recommend it for the music alone. Overall, cool movie and worth a watch. Delroy Lindo was especially good.
  12. Well, you can always eat it. Edibles do me well when I want a good night sleep.
  13. Wow!!! This is clearly golf's "steroid era". No hall of fame for Rory or Scottie!!! 😉
  14. We had a +24 turnover differential last year. +8 more than any other team. That might happen once every couple of decades. We were 10th in total offense last year. Good, not great, especially considering a great offensive line and an MVP quarterback. We clearly lacked explosiveness and playmaking at the receiver position, and haven't done much to address it.
  15. I see him moving down the depth chart, but there's no way he doesn't get another year unless he shows up out of shape or with attitude issues. But yes, I can see a world where a kid like Prather overtakes him as early as this year. The way Beane called him out is very concerning. I believe he ultimately goes down as a bust.
  16. Yeah, it's called a Cluster B personality disorder when it occurs in adulthood.
  17. Exactly. Josh just loves to play and win. Like all the greats, he's fiercely competitive regardless of the sport or game, and this has been well documented going back to his high school and college years.
  18. If we are talking on the field play only - I'd feel very comfortable with Flutie, slightly less so with Fitz and Orton, and generally okay with Tyrod or Holcomb as caretaker types. And I'd obviously take the version of Bledsoe we saw during the first 8 games of 2002, but nothing thereafter. Some decent backup options when we look at our former QBs through that lens. If we are considering attitude, leadership and likelihood of being a helpful backup, I'd probably focus in on Fitz and Tyrod.
  19. Shakir Kincaid Palmer Moore Knox Samuel Coleman
  20. Would be almost foolish not to bring him in to compete for a spot at vet minimum if available. Moore is no sure thing and we don't really have a replacement for Mack Hollins. He's not a #2, but he could slot in as a solid #4 type.
  21. He can easily gain 30 pounds between now and the preseason. Just needs to hang out with our new D-Line signees.
  22. This was the exact game that came to mind for me too. Jeff George came in with great fanfare as the #1 draft pick, and there was a thought it could serve as a preview of a future rivalry between the teams if he turned out to be the real deal. Like you said, we harassed him all game and he didn't have much around him talentwise, but he hung in there until Cornelius Bennett rearranged his mental state early in the fourth quarter. I remember how euphoric the stadium was when he got knocked out cold (obviously, a much different time). What a terrible way to start in the league (even worse for his folks in the stands hearing the crowd erupt over the pummeling of your child).
  23. Drought era, but I'd still consider it a "classic" for all the reasons you state. I was there as well and it was my California girl wife's first Bills game. She wasn't a football fan, but LOVED it, and asked "Is it like this every week?"
