  1. Very cool analysis. Loved this.
  2. A little early for this sort of bandwagon, but still a pretty interesting read.
  3. I would imagine that if it were so easy to get, that TMZ would have had it a lot sooner. It is their stock in trade, after all.
  4. I think I disagree with you. I've always interpreted that term as a way of lowering the bar for what is perceived as unacceptable, so that any physical contact that is unwelcome is also unacceptable. It isn't just a matter of touching that causes pain, i.e. punching, or slapping, but grabbing, pushing, restraining, etc. are also unacceptable. Self defense is, of course, another thing entirely.
  5. Sure, the NFL could have obtained that footage. However, TMZ, I would imagine to be MUCH better at that sort of investigative journalism, and it took them this long to do it. But, I also wonder, is it the NFL's responsibility to investigate players beyond the evidence that is presented to them? And, let's be honest here, the reason the NFL investigates these things at all, or have player conduct policies written into their contracts is because they want to control their image-- it has nothing to do with justice. To be entirely honest, the heinous nature of this case notwithstanding, I am a little uncomfortable with the NFL investigating the personal lives of its players beyond what affects the game, or directly affects the league.
  6. This is a hard comparison to make this early in the season. We're certainly improved in stopping the run. But, Spikes has something to do with this. Also, with Cutler throwing 49 times, and Forte (who had a great game) carrying all but one of their rushing attempts, it's hard to make a definitive statement on our run defense. To me, the difference in this game to a Pettine led defense, looked more like a measured approach to game-planning. It was important for us to stop the run for this team, since we were so bad at it last season. But, it was more import to defend the pass for this game. And so, Forte had great game. Cutler did not. Of course, it shouldn't be surprising that Schwarz would know exactly how to rattle Cutler. And, rattle him we did.
  7. We only turned the ball over once, while creating four turnovers for the Bears. That was a big part of our win today. Lengthen the leash, perhaps. Unleash him? Not so fast.
  8. I haven't bet on this game. But, if I were, I would take the under, and stay away from the line.
  9. Jesus Mother-humping Christ!!! Where did you find such clowns who think so highly of their own opinions that they would post their twaddle on youtube??? How did you find it, and why would you pay attention??? I'm truly mystified!!! "Eat their words!" Get them a bib!
  10. 1.A; 2.D; 3.A; 4.C; 5.C; 6.B; 7.C; 8.A; 9.C; 10.E; 11.C You have to give the exact date you are going to post the winner.
  11. Genny Screamers. Yep. That's what we used to call them. Tastes like high school. We shall see how accurate the site is on the West Coast. I've got my fingers crossed.
  12. Wow. I just went to that site, and a bunch of places did pop up. I think that many of them are probably dead ends-- the closest to me is a tiny, old bowling alley that's hardly ever open. But I'm going to make this a Genny Cream Ale quest. My first season with the NFL ticket AND cold Genny Cream Ale??? The stars must be aligning ! Get ready for the Super Bowl everyone!!!
  13. My personal vote for the top three, so far. IMHO. In no particular order.
  14. I live in a very Hilly area of the Angeles National Forest, just North of Los Angeles (considered "un-incorporated L.A.), and my house is surrounded by lots of trees, including a 150-year-old California live oak that covers almost my entire house. As a result, I have not been able to get Direct TV, or the NFL ticket. But, this last year, we built a studio on the far side of the corral with a roof that has the right angle to the sky. Direct TV with the NFL ticket, installed TODAY!!!
  15. I heard Gisele's been arguing with Belichick over the uniforms-- wants to dress Tom in something more stylish.
  16. Well, I live in Los Angeles, so I take what I can get. But, if I could get my hands on it, I'd be drinking Genesee Cream Ale every Sunday.
  17. This thread should be renamed, "Bills Poetry Slam." Open it up a bit.
  18. I love this move. CJ is a versatile player (remember when Chan had him at WR?), whose versatility is underutilized. IMO.
  19. I can't stop! Our backup RBs aren't just filler or benchwarmers for FJ and Spiller With Dixon, and Brown Two new sheriffs in town Our 1-2-3-4 punch is killer
  20. One more: Our head coach is Douglas Marrone He makes miracles out of baloney He won't try to please ya Like Mother Theresa Just call him our Good Saint Jabroni
  21. Written without a shred of irony...
  22. I'm glad of the Orton pick-up. I think we made a mistake ditching Thad. If this is considered a "panic" move, it is because the FO didn't see a single, viable back-up on the roster. Personally, I see the coaching staff looking too much at the preseason, and not enough from last season. Thad did alright by us, given the situation he stepped into last season. That shouldn't be so easily discounted.
  23. This was a very inspirational read. Truth be told, it is really a puff-piece, and has to be taken with a grain of salt. That being said, I don't believe there is any fabrication here, and we can all hope that his preseason, and past-season woes were not entirely indicative of his ability.
  24. Limericks are better: There once was a quarterback named EJ The Bills bought him cheap off of eBay Unfortunately his knees Were made out of string cheese But the fans gave him plenty of leeway. -OR- A quarterback named EJ Manuel His career didn’t start off too well But in spite of the boos During preseason blues He threw the ball like a bat out of Hell -OR- A Buffalo Bill player named Williams, And Williams, and Williams, and Williams All said to each other Don’t sweat it, my brother Mediocrity will still make us millions Whatcha all got?
