  1. Beautiful place, I got to see Jerry over 50 times at the Warfield Theater on Market St in San Fran and Shea's is every bit as beautiful if not more so. I saw a few movie marathons there in the 70s when it was in decline. I also remember seeing some music there, an insane Tubes show comes to mind.
  2. RIP to a legend. American icon who will be recognized and remembered for many many more years.
  3. I love that theater, what a great place to see him. I saw Bob with The Dead last summer and he looked like he needed a shot of adrenalin tbh. Glad to hear they are playing well. Going to see The Dead two nights in June at the Gorge Amphitheater in Washington. Would love to see the Wolf Bros but L A is the only West Coast show and I don't like going there.
  4. Fitz actually had a good year, his 84.4 rating on pff was 10th highest, Matt Ryan was just behind him. His DVOA on football outsiders was 5th, and his total QBR was 15th. His passer rating was 9th. All in all a good year throwing the ball.
  5. How so? Fitz is an upgrade from Tannehill.
  6. Actually Kaep got paid an enormous sum of money and didn't even have to play.
  7. This solidifies the fact that the Ducks are in, nothing more. I don't root for conferences. I met my wife 22 years ago at the U of O where she ran track as an undergrad and I went to grad school. We still live there and see a lot of games. Oregon was in the Final Four two years ago and out of 4 PAC teams that year 3 made it to the Sweet Sixteen. Not a disappointing year at all. Last year and this year were rough though.
  8. The Oregon Ducks are going to the dance on an 8 game winning streak. Playing great right now, would not be surprised if they get to the 16.
  9. What about his record setting contract extension.........
  10. The Browns haven't been the sexy pick since the 60s
  11. Wilkins at 15 with another 2nd rndr , that's my dream draft
  12. The President speaking with Breitbart from the Oval office: “So here’s the thing—it’s so terrible what’s happening,” Trump said when asked by Breitbart News Washington Political Editor Matthew Boyle about how the left is fighting hard. “You know, the left plays a tougher game, it’s very funny. I actually think that the people on the right are tougher, but they don’t play it tougher. Okay? I can tell you I have the support of the police, the support of the military, the support of the Bikers for Trump – I have the tough people, but they don’t play it tough — until they go to a certain point, and then it would be very bad, very bad. But the left plays it cuter and tougher. Like with all the nonsense that they do in Congress … with all this invest[igations]—that’s all they want to do is –you know, they do things that are nasty. Republicans never played this.” The left better back off or the cops, military, and Bikers for Trump will get rough and it will be very bad for them, very bad. A message from your President, the most Presidential President of all time, only Lincoln even comes close. MAGA!!!
  13. Curried coconut red lentil , black bean soup, west African peanut soup from Moosewood cookbook, seafood chowder
  14. Ed Oliver at 9, Christian Wilkins at 15 with an xtra 2nd rnd pick.
  15. This contract is structured to walk away after a year but have two more if you like. Clays contract you were stuck with 4.
  16. With 35 guaranteed that would be 17.5 avg if they walk away after 2 yrs
  17. Was hoping they would give him 18 per. Will be interesting to see how he does there, doesn't really seem too scary to me for some reason.
  18. Just realized something embarrassing, it was Lucius Allen and not Sidney Wicks on that Buck team. Got the UCLA stars confused. Hard to believe that was around 47 years ago.
  19. Yep, the last two years of the 4.8M prorated bonus.
  20. That is awesome. The old Braves were really exciting. I don't watch too much pro ball either till the end. My sister went to Buff State and was a big Randy Smith fan.
  21. Pretty cool memory, Alcindor was an absolute giant and he would rebound and then hand to me to feed Oscar Robertson for the shot ? I used to go early with my brother the usher and get autographs and meet the players. The Sabres games my brother was the usher for Knox' section in the golds. He had an extra seat for his phone. I had a bunch of pucks from chasing them in the hallway and I would get them autographed along with my hockey sticks. I played right wing and wore Roberts number so he gave me a stick and the French Connection autographed it. My buddy's dad was the penalty box guy and got all the broken sticks, he would give me some that weren't that broken and I would get them autographed. Good memories roaming around the old Aud.
  22. ***** stole our Braves, I got to rebound for Lew Alcindor (Kareem), Lucius Allen and Oscar Robertson at halftime of a game with the Bucks. I was at the game early with my brother who was an usher at the Aud. I was asked to be the official JC Penney Jr. Buffalo Brave ballboy for the night, cause I was wearing my Penneys Jr Brave sweatshirt. I actually got to sit under the basket on the back of the padded base with a guy who worked for the Aud. Lucius Allen came piling into us on a fast break. I was probably around 10 or 11. No way they would let a kid sit there these days.
