  1. What do you call Carbonated beverages?
  2. Tie between Airheads or Chewy Sweet Tarts (formerly known as Shockers.)
  3. I had to look it up myself. It's one of those cases where A Side/B Side is a technical formality.
  4. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hey_Jude#Release
  5. Willie gets an excpetion for how short he played because of his age. There were also like 5 opening acts of an all day festival.
  6. I think the answer for least is obviously NBA.
  7. Have you seen the UFO on ocean floor OTW thread?
  8. Gil Brandt's greatest NFL quarterbacks of all time Listed Below for people that hate click bait. Tom Brady Peyton Manning Joe Montana Otto Graham John Elway Roger Staubach Johnny Unitas Brett Favre Dan Marino Troy Aikman Sammy Baugh Terry Bradshaw Warren Moon Fran Tarkenton Drew Brees Jim Kelly
  9. Nothing to be ashamed of. Mario was great until Rex had him doing something he wasn't meant to do. EJ is very likable, and someone worth rooting for. He just didn't pan out like we thought he would. This one might get me a ban, but hear out my reasoning at the time, and please PLEASE forgive me. I rooted for New England in Superbowl XLII. My reasoning is based on the fact that my brother is a Dolphins fan. He never shut up about the '72 Dolphins. So if they had went 15-1, I'd have been full speed ahead against Brady*. But because I hated the Dolphins more than I hated the Patriots* at that time, and wanted my brother to stfu and have someone beat that record, I wanted them to beat it.
  10. I got free tickets to Panic at the Disco and Weezer a few years back. Fiance was a bigger Panic fan back in high school, so we went. I've never really been a Panic fan to begin with, but aside from a beautiful rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody, they were terrible. It was screaming Teenage girls the whole show. And the lead singer said F every other word. Which didn't shock me, but it felt forced, like he was going out of his way to be edgy. Thankfully, all the teenage kids left before Weezer started, who I'd never been a fan of, but they put on a pretty good show.
  11. I saw Chubby Checker on Tuesday night. Free show at a local park's outdoor theater, so my fiance and her parents thought, why the hell not. He actually put on a fantastic show. Although he only has about 3 or 4 songs of his own that I recognized, he sang a lot of songs from the 50s, and his band was fantastic. Came into the audience and twisted with my fiance. He even signed autographs for everybody who was willing to wait for him after the show. I gotta say. Holding a lighter up during a ballad, cool. Flashlight on your phone, lame.
  12. I personally liked Sturgil, but can see why someone wouldn't care for him. I've been a mild fan of his for a few years now. OCMS wasn't at this specific date. Ryan Bingham was probably the one I enjoyed the most, and I'd never heard of him until the lineup came out.
  13. I didn't pay anything for them. My mother in law bought them as a birthday gift.
  14. I've never seen a McDonald's commercial that was well written, or well acted, or otherwise particularly memorable. At least not the ones aimed at adults. They don't need to be. For this same reason, the Bills only have to go half assed on marketing schemes, because they know their consumer base will eat it up, regardless of what the "slogan" is.
  15. Not to mention Jay Cutler AND Jordan Palmer, the heart of those 9-7 Bears teams, still walk the streets as free agents.
  16. Rams with the bright yellow instead of the more muted (am I using that correctly) Gold. Even worse will be when they get rid of the yellow/gold altogether from their color scheme and just go blue and white. I have this theory that sports teams in the mid 90s-2000s or so purposfully went with ugly jerseys/logos/color schemes, so that when they brought them back, fans would love it and merch sales would increase. Just to name a few off the top of my head: Sabres Bills Astros Penguins Capitals Blue Jays Orioles
  17. !@#$ it. I'm done with The bills. 28 years of fanhood down the drain.
  18. Went to the Outlaw Music Festival yesterday (lineup below). The opening acts were all great. I've known Sturgil Simpson for a while, but never really heard of the rest of them, Except Lukas Nelson, and that's just because of who his dad is. They were all great. Sturgil was phenomenal. Ryan Bingham was a mixed bag of country, blues, rock, and even threw in a traditional Mexican song on Spanish guitar. Country music isn't dead, they just don't play the good stuff on the radio. All these bands have the talent, but they don't sing about drinking Bud Light on a tractor with muddy country girls, so they're not gonna get the airplay they deserve anytime soon. But Willie was disappointing. He plays guitar as well as he ever did, but he can't sing anymore. He only played for about 55 minutes. He didn't play Always on my Mind, or Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain. He relied a lot on the "Now you sing it" trick, and spoke about 85% of the lyrics. Relied on the talent of his band, who I have to say was great. I love Willie Nelson. He's a hero of mine, and a living legend. But he just doesn't have it anymore. I've seen concerts where the performer just didn't care. This wasn't the case. Willie put his heart and soul and everything he had to put on the best show he could. He just doesn't have it anymore. It was sad to watch him go out like that.

  19. Nice. My two aunts, one that lives in town, and one that lives out of town just Facetime. My aunt in Buffalo will set it up on her ipad about 30 minutes before the game, talk to my other aunt, and work on zooming it in perfectly. She claims that she barely can tell that it's a screen on a camera.
  20. Also, I got a futon with minimal Dorito stains on it. $375 a night. Sam's Choice Cola included.
  21. Living out of town, I was thinking about buying an extra DirecTV Box to set up in my dad's house and using it exclusively for a Slingbox that I can stream Bills/Sabres games. Does Sling have blackout restrictions?
  22. Honestly, until I saw the concert listing, I didn't even know he was still alive. But yeah, I assumed he would be about ten years older than he is. Since he only has three hits that are known by most people, most of his concerts consist of other 50s rock songs. Little Richard, Fats Domino, Jerry lee, etc. He apperently still has the same energy as ever, and the price is right.
  23. Question about The Incredibles. Really, for the opening short film. First, was the egg roll thing supposed to be "real" (within the confines of the movie), or in her imagination? Did it take place all in one day? Was it a metaphor for her real son, or was it some sort of Pinocchio thing turning into a real boy at the end? What am I supposed to think of her husband? Am I overthinking this?
  24. I was 9. By myself because my babysitter didn't like football. So I had an old black and white dial TV that my mom got at a garage sale. I blame my mother, and now you, for my drinking problem. A friend of mine was a die hard Cowboys fan. He gave me so much **** for being a Bills fan. He passed recently and I was looking over some old pictures with his wife, and he had that one. I'm sure the fact that I never saw it while he was a live was intentional.
