  1. Buy her a nice Bills parka for Christmas. Ensure that's the only cold weather gear she can find.
  2. The only people who should be sorry here are those who make people feel they should be sorry for having an opinion....or something like that.....
  3. And, to make sure to provide "equal time" in this thread, it's also the reason Nader received campaign money and petition signatures from Republicans.
  4. Further, the only team the Jets have beat that currently has a winning record is the Chargers. If we win, it will be "who cares? The Jets haven't beaten anybody good anyway..." I always hear talk of the "excuse machine" when the Bills lose, but it doesn't hold a candle to the one that goes into play when we win....
  5. It means we now have the night-time version of the "soon-to-be-deleted-or-moved" thread...
  6. I heard that Madden was particularly fond of the ballet....
  7. E. Smith: 22/64 - Prediction Effectively Correct (but Hambrick added another 53). Total Offense: 213 - Prediction Effectively Correct W. McGahee: 30/102 2TD - Prediction Correct T. Henry: 1/2 - Prediction Effectively correct D. Bledsoe: 8/17, 81yds 2TD 0INT - Should have considered the weather more. Dropped "sure" interception replaces "tipped ball." Prediction Effectively Correct. WRONG! But you would have been banned (or laughed off the board) for predicting the "stupid" final score that actually happened. So how about the Jets?
  8. Yeah, hearing your normally mild-mannered Daddy scream and cuss and kick the poodle like that can be a traumatic experience!
  9. It matters because now we have more wins over the last three years than the Cards.
  10. Ummmm, I missed that meeting for "personal reasons."
  11. LMFAO! Mine: Another meeting of the WNYTBDGPS! (I can say that. I'm one of them )
  12. As I was watching the TV ticker, I remembered seeing the score/time of the Bills game seemingly "stuck" forever, then finally update, a couple of times. This must have been one of them. And that explains this weird play-by-play description: 4-4-ARI44 (6:26) S.Player punts 55 yards to BUF 1, Center-N.Hodel, downed by ARZ-D.Carter. Play Challenged by ARZ and REVERSED. S.Player punts 55 yards to BUF 1, Center-N.Hodel, downed by ARZ-D.Carter. PENALTY on ARZ-D.Carter, Illegal Touch Kick, 5 yards, enforced at ARZ 44 - No Play.
  13. Hmmmm, I think we had a legit chance to win every week. The reason we collectively spin the "wheel of blame" after the losses have a lot to do with the fact that we had 3 games that each had 6 boneheaded plays, one each by one of 6 players, any one of which would have given us victory (and let's not bring the refs into it ). And we certainly had a legit chance to win last week, as we had 4 trips to the red zone. Coming away from all four of those with points would have been the difference. Every week we have played we have pretty much overcome the good, sometimes excellent play of our opponents, but, in the cases of our losses, could not overcome our own mistakes. That says to me that we have the talent to succeed, it's a matter of reducing the mistakes. We did that this weekend and won, BIG (enough to overcome the token 4th Q TD allowed by the defense... ). The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.... Each week I will go "Yessss!" when we win and "Aw stevestojan" when we lose, regardless of who we are playing against and what our record is....
  14. Unsportsmanlike penalties can happen after the play has been called dead. Called correctly or not, the offending player still grabbed the facemask.
  15. I would be looking at France as a strong democracy who realizes the rights of any single person to register their complaints against their government publicly and peacefully without labelling them a traitor for doing so. I would support their taking a higher ground on the issue, rather than hiding behind their flag.
  16. Bush is a former team owner, so he's naturally closer to the issues. He made a point of saying that as part of his answer to every other question.
  17. On ESPN, Boomer made the point that it wasn't Katherine Harris but Al Harris that sealed the victory for Kerry, er, Green Bay... wonder if they're related?
  18. So if the Pats lose that "cupcake" game do I sense a team swap happen...again....?
  19. I think they lost focus because their town deserted them for that "other" sports team (you know, the one that just finished their season?). Whatever, we actually move up one on the leaders.
  20. Yeah, it's only the losses that are all Drew's fault.
  21. How can that happen when neither of them seem to know where the end zone is?
  22. That isn't Willis, that's Scott in his Halloween costume. Besides, it ain't over until Jack buys the jersey...
  23. on topic and in the holiday spirit... http://www.club300.ru/public/content/media/humor/cat/cat.swf
  24. Yeah, macaroni salad. Just do like Rock does: make the plate your one meal for the day.
