  1. But... Coaching went into the final two minutes of game with all 3 timeouts. The Bills would have lost in regulation had coaching not managed the timeouts wisely. Take the good with the bad. They still had a chance.
  2. LoL... We now have publicly unabashed raging loons as leaders. Pick your poison. I will reach for the modicum of decorum.
  3. Agree. But they saw where future markets would be. Emerging markets. Toronto was replacing Buffalo. At one time the two biggest Cities on Lakes, most important were Buffalo and Chicago... It moved from Buffalo to Toronto. It's now Toronto and Chicago. They foresaw it. Buffalo was imploding in late 1970s...The vultures circled... That's what Stern did. Circle.
  4. Who brokered the deal? The leech. Funny how karma always gets 'em in the end. He sold out a city... Especially at it's most vulnerable time in it's history.
  5. So. Then the parasite has to find a host? It wasn't the be all. Braves were drawing decent crowds. They had plans to get a franchise in Toronto 15 years later... Just get Buffalo out of the way first. Heck, Dallas got a team in 1980.
  6. No. Blaming Stern for coming up with the plan. Switch owners with another team. Heck, move Celtics to San Diego.
  7. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/may/19/cougar-kills-mountain-biker-injures-another-washington-state The dogs eventually got it. Don't understand why people enter the backcountry without some sort of plan... Weapon.
  8. Huh? He is solely to blame. He came up with the idea for the Braves and Celtics ownership to swap teams... Because Celtics owner wanted to move west. We became the out. They swapped, team moved. Sold right down the river to save the Celtics.
  9. Yeah? Buffalo lost their team with his help.
  10. Or bring the tick indoors and spread it more? Is that possible?
  11. No it won't. We have better sanitation (by a zillion miles more) practices today. I got 2 cats, had 3. I'd give them 1/2 a day before a coyote got to them... Maybe 2 days with the one... He's a bit smarter than others. And wasn't the Plague caused by fleas?
  12. Now, outdoor cats are an ecological disaster: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/moral-cost-of-cats-180960505/ https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-21236690
  13. That's Lee Harvey from: "Stripes" !!! What a madman!
  14. Nice! Bust the unruly ones on down... Just don't get caught on camera! ? They deserve it. LoL...
  15. Just another night. Working: 1800-0600. It's Holiday Bonus. Work (if you wanna call it that) 12 get paid for 24 hours. Start my run of 3 overnights tomorrow night. Off Thursday to Tuesday. Maybe do something then.
  16. My post didn't include any Wiki items. It was a family anecdote. No searching necessary. ? But, thanx for the warning.
  17. Thanks! I feel better @mead107 and a gang of OSHA enforcers will be around just to check up a little bit... Hope you have a couple Ben Franklin's laying around and the grill heating up. Wine helps. Oh make an 8x10, clearly marked sign saying: "Nervous Wife"... But that's obvious, she's the one doing all the work. ?
  18. Danke! I am in a quartentine county... But right on border with a "2017 STS Action Area" county... Lake County, Indiana... I wonder if that's why my 2017 wreath went up in smoke in an alleged USPS "truck fire" in Nashua, New Hampshire. Well, THAT is what my tracking info said. "Perished in truck fire in Nashua, NH." Anyway... My sister never told me the details... But she isn't shipping via USPS anymore. Last 2 years have been UPS. She must be pretty PO'd @ the PO! She's liberal, progressive (aren't they ALL in VT?) and was always a proud supporter of the USPS. I know postal workers... Gr8 agency... They'd never lie to their customers! Look at our friend @Gugny , his heart is filled with truth, honesty and love... A little too much social passion, but wonderful fella @Howard too... They both have unique affiliations with our beloved postal service. But the fact that my sister's beloved hobby of making genuine Vermont wreaths burned to crisp in Nashua, New Hampshire has me a little concerned. Every 5th Grader and @BringBackFergy knows: Nashua, New Hampshire is EAST of St.Albans, VT and Illinois is WEST. Why was my wreath traveling down I89 and not I87.... Bla blah BLAH... I am not buying Lake Champlain is in the way and they need to send it to a hub. Screw Boston and it's "MA Influence." I trust Howard would have had it on the ferry and sent it to Plattsburgh. Howard knows the importance of waterborne commerce! Oh... Congrats on re-educating your wife! The tips have been duly noted. I spent 600 bucks this fall for an old Apple tree to be taken down... And your wife is tackling oaks. IMPRESSIVE! Last time my wife had that mechanical gumption was when we were single and wanted to learn manual transmission. I feel used. Like a piece of meat. I didn't even get a dowry from her father! NOW she won't touch a stick shift, unless I am 3 states away! Hey, that ain't right... And code too! I am calling the lawyers at the Archdiocese on further clarification about what constitutes "bait and switch" at the marriage level. Any Church Going lawyers on the board care to help me out??? GO BILLS!
  19. My sister always sends a Vermont wreath at Christmastime. Last few years they were really getting the hammer dropped on their charity. The USPS claimed that a postal truck fire claimed my 2017 wreath. I think they burned that Vermont ***** -er (not @Johnny Hammersticks... He's the OTHER Vermont ***** -er... LoL) on purpose! Now my sister is relegated to sending out commercially bought wreaths till her operations get cleared from the all intrusive federal gov't... ***** those federal workers. I want my homemade infested wreath from Vermont. Promoting invasive species runs in the family. Damn invasive species. Those gov't do-gooders think they know so much. They need to be educated by the likes of our Wonder Twins: @Cripple Creek & @BringBackFergy. They will teach them a thing or two about gypsy moths! Oh... We need a "gypsy moth cam" set up. Can we get on that stat please. I need to see where they are flying. ?
  20. They need radar... What the eff driving blind for? But, I suppose if you're caught out there, gotta keep pressing on... Stopping is worse... As we can see what happens when there are vehicles stopped.
  21. @Gugny can be a bit vexing at times. Good question. LoL...
