Christmas storm could be “Paralyzing” for Buffalo
Augie replied to CountDorkula's topic in Off the Wall
Dolphins must have a lot of early season lightning stops. That’s a seriously deadly event. -
It must have felt a lot worse after watching Knox have a really good game. Still, I don’t want my guy putting that out there on mic’d up. What we know so far is he doesn’t block and he’ll never be the poster boy for “team leader”. But he sure does kill us sometimes!

How often should you have a 100 or 500 year storm? My math is fuzzy on that. It seems like we are the only team having crazy weather games in the last few years. I KNOW that is not true, but it just feels like we are being picked on in some way, much like the starting QB when Fitz is your backup. -
I despise DTV dish with a passion. They have the worst customer service of any company I can think of. If you want to add something they are there for you. If you have a problem or want to drop/reduce service they ghost you. It’s darn near impossible from my experience. Having said that, I defended the cost to my wife by saying it was the only way to see the Bills. She can’t complain about what I spend on seeing the Bills, and she knows that. We now have DTV Streaming as well as the dish. Every once in a while the streaming goes out and needs to be reset. If she thought it was expensive to have DTV to see the Bills, I wonder what she’ll think of it as a redundancy measure for a few minutes every quarter. She will have to find out first, however. 😋

When our kids started having kids we realized that celebrating Christmas is best done when it is convenient to do so. We don’t rank high enough to do much of anything exactly on December 25. We will have the grandson Christmas Eve day, and the new granddaughter is in Florida at the in-laws. We will get together and celebrate the holiday and time with family when it’s convenient for everybody. On 12/25 we will probably take a meal and some things to my mom in the nursing home. First time ever for that, and it breaks my heart. But we will be glad that we can be with her. At 95 years old you have to be happy just to be with her. That will be my Christmas gift. Best of luck to all those affected by the weather. Stay warm and stay safe. -

They just don’t make them the way they used to. 🤷♂️ -
Diggs throwing his helmet and asking for the ball more

I hope you were not too shocked. -
Colts are benching Ryan. Foles to start the rest of the year.

Might have been his “date” with Horrible Harry that made him decide it’s just not worth it? -
Prayers sent to this young man and his family. It’s such a helpless feeling for a parent. God bless them all!

My goodness! (view of the sideline after Allen took that shot OOB)
Augie replied to Beck Water's topic in The Stadium Wall
That happened to me as a kid! The wrestler tied me up in some move and held me under the water in a pool……and he was the LIFEGUARD! 😱 I thought I was gonna die. That may be the source of my claustrophobia. I had forgotten about that after years of trying to forget it. Ugh! Where is a therapist when you need one? -
Josh Allen gifts custom scooters to the oline

I hope he also provided some XXXL bubble wrap outfits to prevent injury. -
Have you picked your last meal yet? We could get a GREAT thread out of that! 😋

I will give you a 15 yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty when you slap someone upside the head with a bag of meat after you got the last package of sliced turkey. It sounds like roughing the meat eater to me! .

DeShaun Watson would make me far more nervous! Am I too late there? 🤷♂️

Are you competitive with holiday themed office/family games?
Augie replied to Another Fan's topic in Off the Wall
We had a holiday party at friend’s last Friday. They played a game where you have to unravel a soccer ball size clump of cling wrap. There is a rushed timing aspect, and you can win prizes along the way. Stuff I don’t want falls out of the Saran Wrap layer by layer. You have to find the edge and unwrap, you can’t tear it. I know, sounds odd. I hate games like that. I just don’t care, but we managed to have a very good time with a lot of laughing. It was more about the people we were with. EDIT: Tonight my son was here for dinner and they both put together a cling wrap ball to use when my BIL, his wife and 3 daughters come for a Holiday Day Trip on Friday. I don’t look forward to the game, it’s not a meaningful competition in ANY WAY, but I look forward to laughing with them. It’s a win/win, as my wife had a blast with our son making this giant ball of nothing very good. 😂 . -
I find it’s usually pages of coupons or the wipes they used to “sanitize” the cart. I have no desire for your trash. Throw your crap in the garbage can! I start with an empty cart, and I leave an empty cart. I like to grab a trash free cart in the parking lot and test drive it in. There are times you find a wobbly wheel or something, so then I will swap it out. Why do some people abandon their carts in haphazard fashion to go off looking for something? Take the cart with you, or move it off to the side so it’s NOT blocking traffic for the rest of us! Incredibly selfish and inconsiderate!

Not unless things go REALLY WRONG!!!

How about we move it to Orchard Park? It only seems fitting. 😋 EDIT: I kid, for anyone wondering. The NFL does not stop for cold. .

I remember early in the year when some people were saying we need to run the ball more successfully and consistently, while other people were saying there was no need. We were blowing teams out early in the season, but the arrival of winter should not be a surprise to anyone. Duh. I hope we can turn it on this year, but that has to be a priority (again) going into next season. They drafted Cook and traded for Hines, and they signed some FA OLine. It wasn’t enough. We will always be a passing team with Josh, but we need balance to get to the top of the mountain.

I still remember my first time.

Snowballs - fair game if aimed at Dolphins bench?

A bunch of drunken Nathan Peterman’s 20 rows back thinking they have Josh Allen arms. DUCK!!! INCOMING!!! -
Snowballs - fair game if aimed at Dolphins bench?
Augie replied to Clark Rotary's topic in The Stadium Wall
I’m quoting this because…..I can! It’s easier than typing it. 😋 I wonder is some people are thinking of this as soft, fluffy snow. Snowballs range from cold wet cotton balls to ice hard hammers. Either way, it’s just wrong. Does anyone else remember a game, I think it was the Giants, where they got pics of people who were throwing snowballs. They tracked them down and took action. Some minor charge and “banned from the stadium.” I wouldn’t mind that. -
You might be able to get a ticket on the cheap! 😋

When I hear over-hyped I think of the Cowboys and the Lakers. Please stop! Maybe just for a week? As others have said, we are good but not great. Just like the Chefs. Who overcomes the shortcomings to hold up the trophy? THAT is the question.
