I don't know. If you got dating advice from him, you would still be facebook messaging her dirty talk instead and hyperventilating every time you saw her new profile picture.

For all the faces I made up for Salem, I never pictured a white ginger with a round face. I really suck at guessing peoples names and faces.

Easiest way to do it in my opinion is have Bryan Scott or Moats or both cover the TEs. They shouldn't have to do much work because the TE's might have to chip or even stay in to block our front 4 or a blitzer. So basically pressure will make everything easier for guys like Scott, Moats, or (possibly) Williams.

Seeing boards like that makes me appreciate this board.

I dislike Michael Irvin with a passion. He doesn't have an objective bone in his body. I used to like NFL Gameday Final when I didn't understand what was good or bad. It was just highlights to me. But now, I loathe it. Those guys don't really talk about football and are just so biased it makes me nauseous.

Nice. I do hope they use McIntyre, I like him and he's tough to bring down. Maybe they could use him for a few 3rd and shorts. I just watched the video on BB.com from yesterdays practice and Fitz impressed with the 4 throws I saw. All had zip and hit the receivers in stride. Glad he could carry it over from yesterday. Was there any sighting of Brad Smith working with the 3rd string unit at QB? I'm wondering how he's doing at working with only QBs. Wonder if they might put him at WR for a practice or two, too.

Did anyone do it last year?

You're an idiot. Did I do that right?

When it comes to the internet, that's a pretty darn good answer.

The only good thing about summer olympics is that it means that the Winter Olympics is less then two years away.

Where is the proof that he will always suck? Where is the proof that he has never been a winner? Where is the proof that he has no talent? When he started in Week 3 of 2009, he was basically coming in as a rookie with nothing around him. He needed to learn the ropes of the offense and he needed to get weapons around him and a defense. The first time in his career, he has that. Chan Gailey has given him a chance to prove himself. If you look at the beginning of last year, it seems like he might do just that, prove himself as a starting QB. Last year alone proves that he hasn't always sucked, he hasn't always lost, and he has talent. He didn't have a defense and he creamed the Chiefs, hung in there against the Raiders while his defense kept giving up scores and big plays, beat out Tom Brady. Gave the team a chance to win the Bengals game but the defense couldn't make the stop. He took advantage of the turnovers his defense got and got scores on them to propel them to an early lead and a win. Against the Giants, he gave up two costly INT but if his defense bailed him out on at least 1 (1!!!) of them and only allowed a FG, they win the game. He creamed the Redskins. Then the next three games, they were out of the game by the middle of the 2nd quarter because of the defense and Gailey's predictable play-calling. He gave Stevie a chance to catch the game winning pass twice, but he didn't catch them. They had a chance to win the 2nd Dolphins game but the defense let a big run go for 6 and put them out of the game. He beat the red hot Tebow after the defense did what they needed to do. They beat the Pats* in the 1st half but the Defense let Tommy boy back in. I respect people's opinions, but your opinion is just so out there and has never been expressed by anybody else at such a level, I'm just wondering where you're getting this conclusion from. Ahh man, too late. But that was the last post, I swear.

Yes, yes I could've.

I'm seeing the controversy one so I'm going to comment on that one. You need to keep your woman on a leash. I know you're being nice by letting her out of the kitchen but she's getting out of hand. Getting a Marshawn Lynch jersey and then confusing him with Freddy? tsk, tsk, tsk. Shame on you! Also, at the :13 mark http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wz9mp4lutkQ&feature=related EDIT: OK, so I went to your channel and I only the the Birch Beasley's controversy as the new one. The next recent one is the AFC East Preview, which has already been seen on here. Nothing about our easy schedule so maybe it hasn't uploaded? Or is the controversy the actual video and the thread title is improperly headed? Sorry for the confusion.

I thought this had something to do with the Buffalo Bisons getting a white guy on their team from CT. I guess not...

Its all fun and games until someone gets hit in the face with a pigeon after waiting hours for the front car, sending him to the hospital. Also, I guess that someone will never get their message. All because of humans trying to have fun.

Fitz is far from a terrible QB. He is a starting QB for the NFL, only 31 other people can say that. Terrible QB's never make it out of college or are the 3rd QBs for teams. While Bills have had Fitz as the starting QB, they have scored over 21 points 14 times out of 30; winning 7. In the 23 loses they lost 11 times, they were in the game until the game ended. Not good stats but lets break it into the two seasons. 2010 season: they scored 21 in 4 games, winning 1; in the 3 loses they were in the game until it ended twice, one being in OT (the Ravens game). *Note that they also had two other OT games. The Steelers and Chiefs. Ravens game they lost because of the controversial fumble. Steelers they lost because of the Steve drop. Chiefs they lost by the last second field goal in OT.* Last season, they scored over 21 points 10 times. They won 6 of those. In the 4 loses, they were a play away from winning 3 times. The one game they weren't in it, it was the Pats* game. That shows improvement and that we can improve on last years performance. It should at least earn Fitz the title of average to above-average. As for the rankings: Leading in INTs, so did Brett Farve, he won a Super Bowl, led his team to the playoffs a bunch of times so it shows that you can still get to the playoffs if you have a lot of INT. He also has the chance to cut down on them by having receivers that don't defect that ball up in the air and a defense that doesn't force him to push the ball. Leader in 3 and outs and bad 3rd down %: Predictable play calling and no push on the line for the short situations. Hard to convert with that kind of problem. Ranking: A QB is as good as his surroundings and play calling. Chan is pass happy but doesn't have the weapons to make it work, especially with the injuries. You need a mixture of short, intermediate, and deep passes. We didn't have any one for the deep pass realistically (plus no time). Defenses were able to stop the short game by pressing the line. The intermediate passing wasn't there after the Redskins game and then kind of got back towards the end of the season. We need a balanced attack for Fitz to look better and to win. He hasn't proven he can win after throwing over 30 passes. The fact that this can't be debated is already proven wrong because I'm debating it right now, and there has been multiple threads where debating has taken place on this subject. And as for the Bills having a better chance at winning with out Fitz. That doesn't make any sense. You would rather have Vince Young start for us? He hasn't played on this team and due to the difficulty of the offense, doesn't seem to have a shot at starting for this team, let alone starting well. How about Thigpen? He's worse than Fitz and if you think Fitz is terrible, I can't imagine what you would call Thiggy. Brad Smith? Please, he's not a starting QB. So you want to draft one? That involves a whole new roster. A whole new rebuilding plan. A whole new FO in all likely hood. Assuming they get a QB with starting potential, it would take about two or three years, if not more, to get a winning record, let alone a playoff berth. And then what if this QB doesn't work out and isn't our next franchise QB. These guys aren't at every corner. Great QB's aren't even waiting at the phone to be called in for a try out. You have to work with what you've got. We've got a smart QB with above average talent with a defense with a crap load of talent. We have the talent to make the playoffs. We have the talent to make a playoff run. We have the talent to make it to Super Bowl. We have the talent to WIN the Super Bowl. To say that Fitz is a terrible QB is single-minded, self-centered, and just plain dumb to say. RYAN FITZPATRICK!! 2013 SUPER BOWL MVP

I really applaud your stupidity. Only you can say things that get dumber and more single-minded every post and still keep posting. You get pummeled, shot down, every time you post something like this by things that just make much more sense and are backed up by evidence. If anything, you push away people with your statements. Instead of making others see your side of view and make them think that Fitz might not be the answer, you make them think that Fitz isn't terrible and might work out after all.

It is desperate but it makes sense if you're lacking WR depth. Cromartie has played on the return team and is fast. He probably won't be asked to learn the whole playbook, maybe just a cherry picked few plays. As long as he can learn those plays and take a hit, he could become a somewhat decent WR. He might be primarily for a down the field threat and maybe they use him on a few screen plays. I'm not sure on this but wouldn't reading the defense come a little bit easier to him since he is a CB? Any other advantages from him coming from the defensive side?

Um... The Fred injury happened after the rib injury.

I still think I'll win. You know, one of those feel good, comeback from behind stories. Everyone loves to hear those every once and a while.

Is this one of those finish the sentence things? Cuz I would put,"Espn nfl shows SUCK."

It would be easy to counter this by just having the LBs shift to the right side of the defense. Just as long as they don't bite on the counter or cutback, it should work out well.

Vince Young, 2012 Towel Boy!

The English Tennis Club looks absolutely silly after watching Wimbledon for two straight weeks. The players aren't wearing white, the grass is striped, the ball boys (most of them seem like girls though) are wearing some weird combination of red and purple, the linesmen are wearing blue uniforms, and the stands are mixed with purple and the Wimbledon green. It just makes me laugh.
