That's No Moon

From that height you can't see the garbage floating in the harbor

Bill Murray eventually got tired of it and tried to kill himself in every way possible. Reading Jerry Sullivan for 17 consecutive years has a similar effect.

Tomorrow will be a nice test of Peterman's physical skills. Rain all day, 15mph wind with gusts to 25. Run defense is going to play a big role on both sides obviously.

I lived around the corner from you! North Lane off Baseline.

Must ask, why do you know it's there? I grew up on the Island about a mile form there so I was there all the time.

Pleased to see that someone already put The Beach House on there for fish fry. Miss that place.

They can't block, but it's OK, they don't tackle either.

That's a play out of the Bruce Smith playbook. He had an annual campaign for awhile.

No chance in hell he sees that kind of time. He pays a massive fine for sure. Maybe does 18 months if they feel like being harsh. Now...if he stole 5k sticking up a liquor store he'd do 15. The lesson? If you are going to steal, use a computer not a gun. If he simply spent them he's divulge that. It's more likely he re-invested the proceeds and has since made a crap ton more money that would be subject to forfeiture. Keep quiet, claim it was your football money, get to keep it.

You know what it is actually. It's that he's not good enough at criticizing the team. Posters on this board consistently do a good job of tearing the team a new sphincter. I personally think the team this year is crap. I think they'll win 5 games at most. I find Sean McDermott to be an overrated happy clapping ass; the NFL equivalent of a Six Sigma consultant who focuses on process, process, process and not enough on the talent of the individuals doing the work. I find the Pegulas in general to have been incompetent boobs in franchise ownership, but I would rather an incompetent boob than not have teams to watch and they still have SEVERAL years worth of grace period to burn through before that changes. I find Ralph Wilson to have been one of the worst sports owners of all time. The team was largely terrible during his ownership and success they had was ultimately ruined by Wilson's tight fist, his own ego, or both. I don't need someone to blow sunshine up my ass but I don't need someone to piss in my face either.

You know, for as long as that was - they were only truly terrible once or twice. The Bills of the 70's were much worse. The 1984-85 Bills were MUCH worse than any single team during that era. They came very close to making the playoffs a couple times, they had very strong starts to seasons a couple times. I don't need a cheerleader. I also don't need someone to B word just for the sake of bitching either.

It's more like I've read enough of work to know what his work is going to say so when I see his name on a column I roll my eyes and turn the page knowing exactly what his take was without even HAVING to read it.

Put it this way, if I want to hear incessant criticism of the Bills all I need to do is listen to the voices in my own head. If that's not enough I can come here. My issue with him wasn't his criticism, it was what he chose to criticize and when he chose to criticize it. He found it to be his job to piss on everyone's parade during the briefest glimmers of joy and hope during a dark time. You are allowed to let people briefly enjoy something and not lose your journalistic integrity. I get what a columnist does, when you write the same basic column for 20 years it gets tired to read.

Not contributing clicks to anything Jerry Sullivan is connected to ever again. I don't care what he says. He was bitter when he worked for the BN, he's bitter now and lashing out at anyone and everyone other than himself and his hackery for losing his role at the paper. I'm shocked.

It's written in purple crayon. Scratch and sniff stickers represent the x's and o's.

How about Natty Ice?

Local?

They say that as though it's a good thing. That guy died when he got to the big show too.

It's a little unnerving to know your punter is a person none of us have seen kick and your holder is person none of us have seen hold. The way these kind of changes usually go is through a camp competition where we'd have a chance to see both players head to head. If Bojoquez had kicked in pre-season it'd be easier to have a warm fuzzy about it. Schmidt really wasn't very good and was extremely inconsistent in his own right. Even last week, he pinned the Bears at the 1 then promptly shanked his next attempt (though he was bailed out by a friendly bounce). The knock on Bojoquez is apprently placement which, admittedly is an issue. If you have a coverage called to pin a guy in on the right and then the kick goes left you are very vulnerable to a big return. One would also hope that bit is coachable. I acknowledge your apprehension. Hang in there. Just think how tuned in you'll be to punts this weekend.

Not a coffee drinker but my father-in-law ran the coffee program at Wawa for a long time. I can tell you the coffee they are using now is lower quality than it was 10 years ago. So is their lunchmeat.

It's hard to get the rolls to be the same. The water in the dough really matters and water isn't the same from place to place. If you don't think it matters I don't know what to tell you, baking is chemistry and the stuff dissolved in the water matters. The water in Florida isn't the same as the water in Philly. There's a reason, for example, that they make bourbon in Kentucky. It's the mineral content (or lack of iron specifically) in the water I can get Wegmans to make a kimmelweck roll for me here in Philly, it's not the same. It's close, but it's not the same. You can get a hoagie roll anywhere, but they aren't exactly the same. I can make a decent wing myself and Marie's is indeed good blue cheese but you don't get that everywhere. I take this sort of approach with all regional specialties. Sure you can get them other places. Sometimes they are even pretty good, but they aren't quite the same when you take them out of their native area. You would think it'd be pretty easy to make a cheesesteak. If that is the case why do so many people screw them up? I've seen all sorts of abominations labeled as Philly cheesesteaks. The roll is really important. The cut of meat is really important. The way you slice the meat to make it super thin matters. The way you season the meat matters. Hell, the type of cheese you use matters and there's not even agreement on that in Philly. FWIW, the beef on weck you described is exactly what I'm talking about. It's a facsimile. Sure I can go get some Boar's Head roast beef and dunk it in broth. Having a beef on weck made with lunchmeat isn't remotely the same thing as having a fresh carved sandwich from a properly cooked roast. It's good enough in a pinch but it's not a replacement for the real thing.

Trades him for a first and a fourth because we didn't want to pay him, but your point is valid.

Good way to try to hide a guy. Don't let anyone else see him

That Jason Peters guy worked out ok
