  1. Almost like a home game for Buffalo. Their fan base will be great. South Carolina are the defending champs, but they are beatable this year. I think Buffalo has a pretty good chance.
  2. So did I! Seriously, the school was about a mile away. From my house it was about a quarter mile up, a half mile flat, then a quarter mile down. Up hill, both ways. In rain and snow, in Massachusetts near the New Hampshire border.
  3. One thing about Tyrod that spoiled us was the lack of interceptions. I know that he was too conservative and held the ball too long, but that’s a trade off for fewer interceptions. A gunslinger will have interceptions. When your team’s QB throws interception, it stinks. Be prepared.
  4. When my son was in high school I used to try to get him to watch women’s college games. Setting screens, jump shots, pick and roll, half court offense, full court press. Those are the skills a small school suburban boys team should try to master. He wouldn’t watch, it just wasn’t cool. Many college women’s games are boring and inept, but I still occasionally enjoy watching a very good college women’s game.
  5. When completed it was supposed to have suspension cables.
  6. I know I’m old, but pants should at least hit the top of the shoe.
  7. It seems as though Northern Lights, meteor showers, lunar eclipses, planetary alignments, etc. all happen when the weather in New York does what it does best. Suck.
  8. Elephant how does a word end in Q without being an abbreviation or acronym?
  9. I like the username Kelsos cap. Except grammatically it’s more or less meaningless. If the name is in reference to the extra layer of protection that safety Mark Kelso wore due to repeated concussions, it should be Kelso’s cap. Maybe somebody should write a book and call it Apostrophes and How to Use Them.
  10. You don’t trade up to 12 and then stop. They are not done.
  11. Seems to me that he often disappeared during games last season. Hard to believe he would come to Buffalo and play hard for the team and the fans. I would bet that his next contract will be a paycheck and that’s it. Kind of like Super Mario.
  12. I want him back simply because somebody on TBD started referring to him as “The Butler” because that seemed appropriate for a guy named Nigel.
  13. There are three types of threads this time of year Breaking News Ideas/conjecture Humor/sarcasm The hard part is trying to tell which is which
  14. Maybe we should take into account the person who started this childish thread has CuseFan as a name. What has Cuse done lately? What are they likely to do in the future? The future of the Bills is likely to be much brighter than anything out of Cuse. I have a degree from Cuse so I’m not just a guy kicking a school whose sports are on a downward slide. I actually want them to succeed, but I think their glory days are in the past.
  15. Another pick to bundle with existing picks to move way up?
  16. I agree. Nursing is a tough job and the college work is getting harder, and now more places are requiring a bachelors degree and not just an associates degree. However, the high honors kids rarely go into nursing (or teaching). They go into med, law, business or engineering. Nursing gets the “second tier” of kids, and they are more likely to make some choices outside of work that just make me shake my head.
  17. Just a comment...these are nursing assistants, not nurses. These days nurses go through a pretty rigorous curriculum and many have bachelors degrees. Nurses have a lot to lose by philandering with patients. Nursing assistants go through a not so rigorous certification program. I would be a little more surprised if these were nurses. It’s still a pretty stupid move no matter what, kind of like teachers (even married ones) getting caught with students. Talk about a lot to lose!
  18. Wasn’t it just a couple years ago that the Bills were shamed in national media for having one of the only blackouts in recent history? Has that changed recently? Are the Bills selling out reliably? Would this policy help or hurt that situation?
