If anyone has a Joe Theisman Bobble Head, I have some modifcations I'd like to make to it. I'm thinking I can cut the leg, attach it back to the body with a small spring, and have the my own personal Joe Theisman Bobble Leg Doll!

HELP: Best Chicken Wings in Boston?
JCBoston replied to BILLS02138's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The best wings in Boston, IMO, are at the Busy Bee Pub in Watertown. They're still not as good as in Buffalo, but pretty good nonetheless. -
SI writer on Pats site reviews Bills
JCBoston replied to JohnnyBravo's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Oh, that's good: Sun in the forecast? FOR A NIGHT GAME?!?!? Some stevestojan just ain't worth reading. -
You might be able to see the Northern Lights now
JCBoston replied to Pete's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Believe it or not, I saw them from the Niagara Thruway on the way to Tonawanda after the game on Sunday. A little dimmer than when last I saw them in the Adirondacks, but still spectactular. -
In NE they said game may be over at halftime
JCBoston replied to Ray's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Two problems here: The Boston sports radio guys don't watch any games other than the Patriots, so they have no idea how other teams are playing. They are also the biggest homers you will ever know, including that two-faced, hairy ape of a traitor named Fred Smerlas. They're also idiots, and I don't mean Red Sox-like idiots. OK, there are three problems But there is one simple fact: until the Bills can beat a quality opponent on the road, and until the Pats show that they will ever lose a game at home again, their fans have every right to be over-confident. -

Absolutely. This is why I refused to blame the D for any of our losses this year, with the possible exception of the NE game. Flat out -- if you can't score 14 - or 21 - points yourself, you don't deserve to win in this league. If we were losing games by scores like 38-31 or 42-35, then we could talk about the defense. Don't get me wrong - they've had their moments - but overall, if your defense gives up 13 points, you ought to win. We'd be 3-1 right now if that were the case.

Being a Bills Fan is like...
JCBoston replied to Food_Pyramid_Wrong's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
.. being a Red Sox fan. Man... that isn't funny. -
This is not true. Consider the calculation: The last time the Red Sox won the world series was 1918. 2004 - 1918 = 86 years. Let's give the Bills 1965 as the last time they won a championship. That means the Bills have until the year 2051 (1965+86) to win the Super Bowl, before they can equal the futility of the Red Sox. (BTW, in 2051 I, myself will be 86 years old. The celebration would probably kill me, but what a way to go!) Of course, if the Red Sox do what they usually do, you can say "wait till next year" -- and schedule the party for 2052.

HBO On-Demand is also running them in five or six show "blocks", each available for 3 weeks or so. They started with the pilot in the summer and are just about to finish up the second season. I didn't see seasons 1 through 4 when they aired originally, so this is heaven... not to mention some quality TV to watch until season 6 begins!

You were probably knocking TD for not hiring Marvin Lewis or John Fox under similar circumstances, right? Hey, even Marv Levy had a *losing* NFL record before coming to the Bills. What did you think of that hire? Please. MM has put together a pretty decent staff, something GW never did. Wyche, McNally and April all came with pretty good track records. Give 'em a chance.

This is right on. Travis is a horse between the tackles, but apparently -- especially given "The Play" yesterday -- he's as dumb as a rock. Somehow, I figure that WM could have made that 3rd-and-2. It's time to find out for sure.
-
I bet we could get our quarterback-of-the-future, no?
-
Actually, I think the last time it happened was in last year's opener, no? Sad... actually... remember that year we went something like 7 or 8 games in a row scoring a TD on the opening drive?

V-Coach: Losman rehab ahead of schedule
JCBoston replied to Ramius's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This would be typical given the Bills modus operandi the last few years: - Sell out the early part of the season based on high expectations - Rosen and burn early, say, 2-8 when JP comes back - Win out, miss the playoffs by a game or two, boosting expectations for next year - Repeat ad nauseum. Am I bitter or what? -
Is it possible for a game to end with a negative total score? If not, I'm going with Buffalo 2, Miami 0. We get the safety when Feeley craps his pants in the endzone, because he's shocked when Travis Henry drops the rock on the goal line.

Stay at the Hampton Inn or the Raddison (soon to be Comfort) Suites in downtown. They're on either end of the Chippewa strip - Hampton at Delaware, Raddison at Main. The bars don't close 'till 4 am and you can get the worlds best steak-and-cheese at Jims Steakout. Anchor Bar is a short ride (or cab, or train) away as well.

No money in BUFFALO? Check this out!
JCBoston replied to BILLS02138's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
IMO, Bob Rich is our best hope when Ralph goes to the Ultimate Luxury Box. He's a local guy who has some experience in professional sports. Golisano might be in the action, too -- there were rumors to that effect when he bought the Swordsmen. Besides, I believe the rules were relaxed so that an NFL owner could own other major league teams, no? -
Glad you had a good time, despite, well, you know... OT, it's pretty amazing to see the sun shine on that street.

Yes, absolutely. The place was packed for the opener. See you Sunday!

(OT) Advice on trees/bushes for a property divide
JCBoston replied to PIZ's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Poplar trees grow quickly, and they're straight and relatively tall. They have a nice look to them, IMO. However, their lifespan is relatively short. But presumably, by that point, your problem would have gone away.
