That's No Moon

Who's the baddest??

Chief Kief

Funny, the closest I've ever been to getting into a fight at an event personally was with a drunken a-hole at a Dave Matthews concert of all places. A drunken a-hole doesn't care about the venue, all he knows is he's a drunken a-hole. The biggest single non-Bills game jackass I had to deal with was a drunken a-hole on Opening Day in Three Rivers Stadium who spent 4 innings of a Pirates/Braves game spewing the vilest venom on Earth at Curtis Pride (RF for the Braves) before I informed the gentleman that Curtis Pride is deaf (which he actually is) and couldn't hear him anyway. I can verify this.

Let's see.... Pittsburgh for football, baseball, and hockey (Three Riversx2, PNC, and the Igloo) Philadelphia for football, baseball and hockey (The Vetx2, The Linc, Citizens Bank, The Spectrum and Wells Fargo Ctr) Penn State football and hockey Toronto baseball Detroit baseball Los Angeles baseball Anaheim baseball Atlanta baseball, football, basketball (Fulton Cty Stadium, GA dome, Omni) GA Tech football and basketball Georgia Football Washington baseball Phoenix basketball San Francisco baseball (Candlestick and AT&T) Baltimore baseball Tampa hockey Is that a long enough list? Never saw stuff that I've seen at Bills games. Never. Have there been drunken a-holes. Yup. Have there been some fights? Yup. Nothing approaching the frequency and intensity of stuff I've seen both inside and outside New Era Field. Maybe that's because I've been there the most of any of those other places and I happened to catch them all on a good day but for all the crap Philly takes I've seen way worse behavior in Buffalo and I've been to a bunch of Philly events over the years.

Cool, spoken like a true moron with an axe to grind. If you were a moron in the bus lot then yes I guess I meant you. if you were just a person riding a bus, well then I guess I wasn't referring to you was I though with your response I somewhat doubt it. When people REPEATEDLY act they way they have acted for a period of years this is the inevitable outcome. I'm an out of towner too. I pay plenty extra to attend a game and it's a heluva lot more than the shared cost of a bus ride. I was a season ticket holder up until 1994 and the attitude towards extreme drunkenness was lax even then. I brought some friends to a pre-season game as a 17 year old kid and one of my buddies got could not stand up drunk at a tailgate party. He was 17 years old and obviously 17 years old. We got into the stadium with him, walked past a phalanx of cops and stadium personnel and nobody did squat. The guys sitting around me in the stadium were ALL season ticket holders and they would each sneak about a 12 pack of beer into the stadium inside their coats every single game. Sneak is a strong term because nobody cared. My father tells stories of when the stadium opened people buying a seat for the keg and carrying it in. Speaking of no perspective. Go to a game somewhere else and see how tailgating is treated there. Buffalo is essentially the Wild West in the parking lots. Now the bus folks have to bring their own food and bev to a special area. Well guess what, that pretty much eliminates putting some kegs and a full bar on the bus doesn't it. Be prepared to show some ID for that beer you're carrying in as well.

Let's say you have a 60 passenger bus, they will charge you $100 for a parking pass and no tailgating. That's $6 a head to park. If you want to tailgate it becomes $15 a head. So you're really only paying an additional $9. How much value do you expect for $9??? Even if I'm interpreting that incorrectly and they are charging an additional $15 per person to tailgate, fine, what precisely do you expect for $15? You know what most of that $15 will go toward? Additional security for the tailgating area. Every bit of that security is warranted based on repeated past behavior by drunken morons. I have no sympathy whatsoever for the idiots in the bus lot, they brought this on themselves. Everyone else that tailgates? Consider this a shot fired across your collective bows. There are plenty of places that restrict tailgating activity to specific parking lots.

AAA baseball has changed a lot in the 30 years since Pilot Field opened. Lots of top prospects skip the level entirely and those who do play AAA ball tend to not play there very long. In that way it matters less about the quality of the farm system and more on the quality of the non-prospect roster players and fringe MLB pitchers at the AAA level. For better or worse, the AAA is the least relevant level to the parent club now.

Ravioli, 3 kinds of italian sausage, spiral cut honey baked ham, leg of lamb, braciole, potato salad, peas with pancetta, cheese bread, cheese pie. And for the record I have seen butter lambs in Philly but they are way harder to find than in WNY.

I'm also apparently the only one who likes actually relaxing on Thanksgiving, but OK.

Am I the only one who truly hates this?

To avoid the 45 minute charter flight. Good plan.

They've raised over 500 million dollars in less than a day from 2 people and one company. They'll bring in billions. Billions. Miraculously all the important art, relics, statuary and stained glass were apparently saved or had just been removed prior to the fire.

Point of order, that's not an X-Wing. ?

It's a flying Greyhound bus.

Uhm.... she's not hot enough to be that much of an ass.

Into the bowl and flushed...

Oy vey. Not the same thing but we once had a parent drop 150 pounds of diamond dry on an infield to dry it up. Ugh. That stuff really needs to come with a warning label and instructions on the bag.

Why was this a problem, were people fellating them in exchange for OJ Simpson jerseys in the parking lot?

On the plus shes an aerospace engineer so she can probably design her own walking apparatus, patent it, attach that video clip to it and make a fortune.

It's a common problem that I think there is a different thread for...

That's a helluva tag line for a business card. Shawn Oakman Young. Acquitted.

They forgot the flames...

AAF is suspending operations and exactly 0 NFLPA members will lose jobs because of it.

Exactly. There are a LOT of issues in play and I think the AAF was a little presumptuous regarding everyone else's buy in. Their goal was clearly to be first to market but getting into the market with an unsustainable business plan is a recipe for big losses and ultimate disaster. I think they talked themselves into this belief that the NFL and the players would hurriedly jump on board with some of the NFL name cache they threw around.

What's the sound of one hand clapping? I heard his friends call him Gonorrhea
