The Senator

Maybe what SKOOOOOOOOOOOBY finds odd is that the Bills didn't have a private jet on the ground last nite in Gonzales, LA, just waiting to fly Nelson to Rochester for this morning's practice?

I prefer quotes like... "I don't even remember what I said. I hope whatever I said was cute and clever, and maybe even a tiny bit humorous. I hope it wasn't mindless babble, and if it was, hopefully everyone will forget about it pretty quick." or... "I've specifically concentrated on not concentrating on this, and up to this point, I've done a really good job." Of course, you can only get that kind of entertainment from the best offensive mind in football... Mike Leach

SKOOOOOOOOOOOOOOBY will be starting his own thread shortly... "Per Chris Brown: RB Hairston leaves with injury" ...followed almost immediately by a new thread - "Per Chris Brown: Nelson not at practice" EDIT: OMFG, the Nelson thread is already up :lol: link

I know...but I can't help it. I just hope they don't procreate.

OK..... . . . ......there, I've considered it. Still a f&cking retard act.

Respectfully disagree. Better to look back and say, "We had a beautiful, dignified wedding ceremony, and the reception was a blast!", than to say, "OMFG, I'm so embarrassed. We were so young and so stupid - we acted like f&cking clowns, hip-hopping down the aisle to...what's that song again? The one by the guy who beat the schitt out of his girlfriend? Why the hell didn't we just save the retard act for the reception?" By your own admission, you find it in bad taste. Years from now, so will they. JMO.

HAPPY NATAL ANNIVERSARIES!!!! Cheers

Ah yes, the old Mitchell Brothers' O'Farrell Theater - I remember it well. "The Carnegie Hall of public sex in America" - Hunter S. Thompson

Well then.... Git 'er done, Russ!

Freakin' Bills front office. WTF are they doing signing their draft picks so early?

PosLUSZny!!!!!

I don't really consider what these guys are doing as egregious as a guy who's already under contract holding out. They really can't step on the field until they're under contract - otherwise they're totally exposed if they get hurt on day one. It's their first contract, and they'll report is soon as the 'slotting' process runs it's natural course. Probably w/in a few days after camp opens. Now if they have a great rookie season and decide to hold out next season, well f&ck 'em, I say.

Ya beat me to it!

I'll stay with the same 2 artists... (a very young Zevon, w/Jackson Browne) Morrison - These Are The Days (from Avalon Sunset - one of Van's more 'spiritual' albums)

That does seem a bit 'out of whack' - especially seeing as Buffalo has a population of 270K and Mayor Brown's salary is $105K. If it's pornography you're looking for, take a look at this filth... City of Buffalo - Employee Titles and Salaries

Of course it will. But someday, these kids will have to explain this to their kids, or prospective employer... link

I find it oddly amusing, a guy 30 years my junior telling me about 'old sayings'. Anyway, Young Sage, hear me now - believe me later...when you're being recorded for posterity, try not to do anything too strange that - years later - you will look back on with astonished regret. (That goes for bell bottoms as well as body piercings, hippie hair-dos as well as purple mohawks, all kinds of strange dances, and what have you. ) EDIT: Good God!!! I'm starting to sound like Cincy!!!!

No, you are not. Save that schitt for the reception, and at least keep the church service somewhat 'dignified'. A Wedding Processional featuring the music of woman-beater Chris Brown??? WTF???

My pleasure - when I'm not engaged in all-out war on TSW, I occasionally try to post something constructive. BTW, the Bass Pro project is a good one. We just have to watch over it to make sure over eager-developers don't, in their haste to put up anything at all, destroy Buffalo's greatest assets - its rich history and its storied architecture. We almost had Masiello, Bob Rich, and Larry Quinn shove this plan down our throats... Rendering - Waterside View Rendering - Ariel View ...which would have obliterated the 1999 Master Plan's call for public 'green space' at that location, along with restoration of the original Canal Zone street plan. (The original cobblestone streets were discovered in tact under a few inches of gravel that was just dumped over them to create parking lots when the Aud was expanded to accommodate the new NHL expansion Buffalo Sabres). 1999 Master Plan Site Detail (As with most grand projects here in WNY, this one is way behind schedule. ) Thanks to the efforts of some tireless preservationists (some would call them 'obstructionists), we now have the original plan back on track, and a much better design for Bass Pro at the original and more appropriate location - the site of the old Aud.... 'Final' Canal Plans Revealed As you can see, it's a much nicer plan, and actually involves re-watering a small stretch of the original Erie Canal (which ran right next to the Aud), along with unearthing and re-watering several old slips and constructing new ones, taking the waterfront further inland. The whole thing is very reminiscent of Boston's Quincy Market area or Baltimore's Harborplace, abeit on a smaller scale reflecting Buffalo's more modest means. Now, if we can just get that casino finished - only about 3 blocks away from all of this and HSBC Arena... Seneca Buffalo Creek Casino ...we'll have a nice little core in downtown Buffalo on which to build and grow. Too bad we drag our feet so much - we could have had all this done in time for St. Paddy's Day weekend in 2010 and the return to Buffalo of... March Madness

Here are a couple more: On tortilla throwing Tech fans in 2002... “At no level do I see where the Red Raider football team is responsible at all for any tortillas being thrown. We watch over them very carefully, and before they ever go on the field, we ensure that none of them have tortillas.” On Alabama... “I don't see a lot of weaknesses in the Alabama defense. They run just a basic good, old-fashioned defense, which they execute it real well. I think the strength of that team is the fact they don't have a lot of weaknesses.” And, hopefully, one we can say about our Bills... "This year's team could beat last year's team's ass."

It'll be something like... "Per RotoWorld: Bills' Training Camp Opens Today"

Freakin' ProvinceTown Patriettes*!

Hey, I just saw a Donn Esmonde article linked on the home page of TBD. I better go start a new thread to tell people about it.

I didn't realize the Buffalo Snooze was paying Esmonde $6 million/year. Holy crap! Now I wanna know what Esmonde spends on his own earrings.

If you guys really want a quote machine, you want... Mike Leach "We're going to treat the next three games all dramatically differently, and there will be all kinds of interesting little twists and nuances that we'll do to each individual one to dignify it for its importance that exists in the overall scheme of the universe. There'll be dramatic differences, and throughout the course of that deal, I'll enjoy talking about it in length."
