Dick's probably just relieved that he doesn't have to figure out who the hell to put at LT next Sunday.

That's extremely optimistic. Singletary is a master motivator. Fewell...not so much.

And now this: John Gruden - "I probably will coach again"
MattyT replied to Peter's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Interesting, but he also said this...."But I don't miss the agony." So no flippin' way he comes to Buffalo. -
I know this is a movie, but let's please keep this discussion within the realm of the possible.

Interesting that the worse the team becomes, the better your writeup gets! and Amen!

Vic Carucci says Bills to make major changes
MattyT replied to Buffalo_Stampede's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Carucci must have ridden in a cab recently. -
Saying "happiest" implies that you've had murders in your neighborhood before. If true, then YIKES!
-
Yep. Busted spring or cable. That's why you can't easily lift the door. You should prob be able to see something hanging down or a cable with a lot of slack.

Spectacles, testicles, watch, wallet.

Also an English Bulldog here...but not as lazy as I expected. Anything but...but he's a great dog.

A new roof is expensive, but it's definitely work that I don't mind paying someone else to do.

One Hundred Things Restaurant Staffers Should
MattyT replied to erynthered's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Thank you! Too much cornet just ruins a good quiche. But a muted flugelhorn can make a meal perfect. -
I had the same problem when I was with T-Mobile, then switched to Verizon and have never had better coverage. It's just diff in diff areas. Tough to argue about who is best.

A brief Motorola Droid Review...note that most of these comments aren't comparing the Droid to iPhone or Blackberry or whatever. I've never used a Blackberry and have only spent about 15 minutes total on an iPhone. My previous phone was a Moto Razr. The Good - Screen is gorgeous and everything is extremely responsive. - Browser renderings have been good...tested both the default WebKit based browser and Opera Mini. - Highly customizable. By default you only have 3 screens, but I downloaded an app that lets me customize wallpapers, icons, etc....and it adds four more screens for a total of 7. Having seven separate screens is really sweet. - Battery life is good so far. - The selection of apps in the Marketplace is sufficient and should really grow now that these new phones should increase demand and attract a larger base of developers. - If you Twitter, try out both Swift and Twidroid. Everyone talks about Twidroid, but I found Swift to be better. - I like the hardware keyboard. Having both a hardware keyboard and a touch screen keyboard was a bonus for me because I wasn't sure which I was going to prefer. Here I have the best of both and find myself using both. - Totally integrated with Gmail which is my primary email. - Favorite downloaded apps/widgets so far... 1. Pandora - You can listen to Pandora while doing other tasks. 2. Swift - Nice Twitter app. 3. One touch buttons for turning on/off Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and Silent Mode. 4. SportsTap - Scores, standings, news and alerts for most major sports. 5. Shazam - Listens to a song, analyzes it and tells you the name of the artist, song and album. 6. Toddler lock - My 20 mos old daughter inevitably gets her hands on everything around the house. If she gets my phone I can turn on Toddler lock by pressing one button and it locks out everything on the phone except for the touch screen which she can then use to doodle and create shapes on. No more calling random people from my Contacts 7. NewsRob - All my Google Reader RSS feeds pulled down into one app. The Bad - The battery door keeps falling off when I pull the phone out of my pocket. It's just a simple slider with no locking mechanism. This thing has a hair trigger. I'm taking it back to the store to have evaluated. A phone cover may fix this but I don't really want a $200 phone that relies on a cover to keep the door on. - The touch screen is difficult to use when the phone is laying on a flat surface. It just isn't very responsive. This sucks because sometimes I just want to set it down and work it with one hand, but it seems like I have to hold it in my hand to work reliably. - Needs more apps (specifically a browser) with pinch to zoom functionality. The phone supports it, but I haven't found a browser that includes it yet. The double-tap to zoom is okay, but pinch zoom is one iPhone feature that I miss. - Camera is kinda slow between pics. I realize this is a phone and not a DSLR, but when I was trying to take pics of my daughter playing in a pile of leaves and around the yard I feel like I missed a lot of good shots because the phone took too long between shots. Don't know how this compares with other SmartPhones. - OS isn't quite as intuitive as the iPhone. I had to really play around with a few things to figure out some pretty basic functionality like switching between apps. Once I figured it out it was no problem though. Also, I'm a Mac guy so some of the visual cues that Apple used on the iPhone may have already been familiar to me. - The touch screen keyboard is very difficult for me to use...especially in portrait mode. Landscape isn't too bad plus the phone is excellent at making suggestions based on past use. Also, you can download other keyboards as separate apps if you don't like the default. Additional Notes... - I haven't tried out the free text-to-speech GPS yet, but I like knowing it's there in case my wife needs the Garmin for the day. - I bought two media docks that are being shipped to me this week. I'll update on how those are once I get them. Let me know if anyone has any questions.

San Fransisco?

Typing this on my Droid. It's been great so far. This is my first Smartphone...coming from a Moto Razr, so this is dramatically different for me. I think one of the biggest suprises so far is how much I like the hardware keyboard. Well, off to play in the app market. I'll update later.

Got mine during lunch. Can't wait to play!

That blows

Good point about the penalties. They've been brutal this year.

This is Chris's first of two stat-crunching posts today. Bye week must be a little slow for him too Thought this was interesting, but I'd be even more interested to see a comparison of the games pre-Marshawn and with-Marshawn to see if his conclusion still holds up that the run game is not the problem with regard to converting 3rd downs. I've felt that the Bills did a much better job of converting when they were leaning on Freddie as the primary back. http://blogs.buffalobills.com/2009/11/05/d...-game/#comments Companion article: http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-3...33-671956de6e04 Here's the other post. It breaks down the Run D. http://blogs.buffalobills.com/2009/11/05/w...s-getting-hurt/

I've been fortunate to be exposed to this show once again now that my daughter is around. Locally, the new season starts on Tuesday. I'm somewhat embarrassed to say that this 34 year old is looking forward to it as much as I am.

What to get the ultimate Beatles fan for Christmas?
MattyT replied to Beerball's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Go for it....but get educated. http://islimewireillegal.com/ I'll add that one aspect that this page doesn't cover is the lack of security of the files you download. You may very well be downloading spyware or viruses disguised as media files. Limewire is one of the most popular P2P apps so it's pretty much the prime target for evildoers. -
