  1. Only once in the last 20 years have I not left a tip. It was two years ago at the Bar Bill. I ordered a draft of Blue because their lines are always super clean. Bartender hands me a bottle of Blue. I tell him I wanted a Draft. He just mumbles something and walks away. All he had to do was put it in the ice and pour my draft. It'd sell in 90 seconds. Ever since Chuck and Nancy sold it the staff acts like they can't be bothered. I'll never go back. 

  2. Greg Papa out with Raiders after over 20 years. Mark Davis is a clown. I know a lot of you don't know him but he was the best in the NFL. I spent many a Sunday finding an affiliate of the Raiders network slipping and not blocking their feed. With Tom Flores and Lincoln Kennedy they were the best broadcast team in the league. His work on the Bills game last year was amazing. He knew more about the team and the history than those who broadcast in Buffalo. Hope he gets the SF job at some point or is on nationally. He's best.

  3. Except for Bills/Sabres pbp I haven't listened to shows on GR for 10 years. I'm a better person for it too. However, I was listening at the time Brad got canned. He would not show up for work over and over again. Which I could completely see because of how lazy his show was. He thought he was witty and clever when he wasn't. Judging from the comments I see nothing has changed and the station still sucks.  If they ever had competition with a strong signal the firings would begin. They'd have their ratings cut in half in six months.

    He's rich, he has 5 rings, he has a beautiful wife, and he has young kids. I think he just doesn't want to go out having lost his last SB. He may have retired this year if they had beaten the Eagles. If they win the SB in February I expect him to walk away. If not he will finish out his contract and walk away. 

    I agree. The haters can hate all they want. He's done it all. Plus, for a guy isn't often injured, who knows how many times his brain has been rattled. Walk off into the sunset with your sack of gold and enjoy the next 40 years.

    What's Happening at the Buffalo News: Part 2

    Interesting read. Part 1 was fascinating as well. I actually liked Jerry. Was too much of the same at times? Absolutely. However, if you ever hear him on out of town radio, such as the FAN590, he is really insightful. The BN dug their own grave and it's convenient to blame the style of a man for alienating your readership rather than own up to your own mistakes. 

  6. I would say watching my ex give birth to our first. All of the crazy things I did when I was younger had at least had  a sense of control to it. No matter how stupid. It was a looooong labor and I've never been more terrified in my life. Nothing I could do but watch it unfold. It felt like going 15 rounds with Ali AND Frazier.

    yeah, this was a few years ago (15yrs?). this was our go-to for all our kids' birthday parties. the worst part is, as the prices went up, the quality seemingly kept going down. 

    Couldn't agree more. Wings were decent but the pizza had way too much dough that just killed it. Never again.

    i can remember our local grocery store having a "party deal", which was a sheet pizza along with a bucket of 50 wings for $29.99. now i think you may need a small loan and a cosigner for the same order. 

    I just got this combo from Tim and Bonnie's in Springville last week for the girlfriends son's birthday party.
