  1. Reminds me of the Chris Rock "Women are the biggest liars" bit. Chris Rock Unadulterated Transcript "And you want me to tell the truth? !@#$ you!"
  2. Ever wonder how your favorite band got its name? Check out this comprehensive list of name origins. Band Name Origins I've always been partial to the UB-40 story, but I can't beleieve I never figured out Buck Cherry until I read it here.
  3. Don't know if this has been posted before. It ran on CTV in Ontario. Funny stuff!
  4. In a related note: In the band long enough for a cup of coffee lead singer Gary Cherone is reuniting with his right hand while dreaming of what might have been.
  5. Darin's so cool he actually makes the temperature drop in Alaska.
  6. From the ESPY's a few years back. If you haven't seen it, it's a riot. Jules on Ice

  8. There are times when I'm maddened by the decisions NFL coaches make late in games as it pertains to clock management. The Bills/SD and Bills/Colts games are two cases in point. In yesterday's game the Bills needed a touchdown and a field goal to tie. At the 2-minute warning (which came at 1:53) they had the ball at the SD 23 and no time outs. Why not kick the field goal there and try the onsides kick immediately? (I know that wind conditions were a factor, but go with me on this as they wouldn't have kicked in a dome). That way, if you recover the kick you have over a minute and a half to drive for the tying touchdown. I like those odds much better than the way they played it, where had they made the onsides recovery they had but 20+ seconds to try and get within field goal range. Case #2 the Indy game where they found themselves playing defense down by 1 with less than two minutes to play. Indy had a third and mid-range. If they pick up the first they can run out the clock - game over. Why wouldn't the Bills coaches tell the players to play the tackle up to the marker and let the guy go to the house past it? That way you're down 8 with a chance to get the ball back and have a chance for a TD and a 2-point conversion to send it to OT. Instead, the Bills D made the tackle and the game was essentially over. In basketball a guy has no problem intentionally bricking the second end of a 1 and 1 when his team is down by 2 with a couple of seconds left. Why don't NFL coaches think out of the box and give their teams a better shot at winning? Thoughts?
  9. Thanks, Mike. I appreciate the kind words.
  10. Here's my latest, thought you might enjoy. OJ in Niagara Falls
  11. I echo many of the great thoughts here about Randy Smith, Ernie D and McAdoo. Here's a strange memory that I have from the Braves days: The Braves had a Center named Swen Nater. He was a stiff but he had a strange ritual. Before each game he would lace his wedding band into his sneakers. I remember being at a game in the Reds and focusing my binoculars on his sneakers and sure enough there was the wedding band. It didn't make him a better player, but it did make him a good husband.
  12. My brother-in-law got a Bills logo done a few years back. Turns out he was allergic to the red ink and it bubbled up really bad. Evidently, many people react badly to red tattoo ink. The moral of the story is to test with a small amount of the red ink before you make the full plunge.
  13. I was sitting in a Wendy's eating lunch when I read Ko's quote in the Buffalo News. I laughed out loud and drew looks from people at surrounding tables. It seems as if the sports scribes are going to love this kid. (BTW, the column also said that it was Ko's first sack ever - at any level of football.)
  14. It's a bit of a stretch, but Mork and Mindy qualifies. The show was set in the 1970s, but occasionaly Mork would pop back to the 50s to hang out with Fonzie and Ritchie from Happy Days.
  15. Bills Dolphins are dead Current squads couldn't care less Read today's B-News
  16. A lot of good ones have been listed, but the coup de gras has to be this one held up by a fan halfway through the miracle comeback against the Oliers: I don't hear no fat lady singing!
  17. I assume that it was our own Nick in England that was featured in the News NFL preview section. If so, nice pick and way to go carrying the Bills banner in the UK.
  18. Rumor has it the Bills are looking at signing his college linemate Kitten Comforter.
  19. Give that man a cigar! Way to go Carnac!
  20. Do yourself a favor and get DirecTV. More channels, less expensive and you get both the NFL Network and OLN on the basic tier. Plus, they're giving a free Tivo receiver with new purchases. Cable's days are over!
  21. The Turk visits One Bills Drive this afternoon. Most years, there is at least one eyebrow-raising cut by the Bills. Who will be the most shocking cut today? My pick: Troy Vincent. I just think that the Bills are going to a youth movement in the secondary and Troy might be a casulaty. I wish that Josh Reed would get the axe, but he must have naked pix of Jauron and a farm animal.
  22. An elderly couple from Macon, GA are sitting in church one Sunday morning. About halfway through the preacher's sermon the old gal leans over to her husband and says: I just let out a silent fart, what should I do? Her husband looks back at her and says: Put a new battery in your hearing aid.
  23. Just found the other post on this subject! In the words of Emily LaTella...never mind!
  24. This mock logo was posted on the WGR website. Sabres Slug on Bills Helmet I have to admit that I like it alot better than I do in the Sabres colors.
  25. Don't even go there - not even in jest.
