  1. Will no one rid us of this meddlesome qb?
  2. Maybe he's a friend/fan of Kurt Schultz...very good guy, btw.
  3. Preach brother. I want heads on pikes. F***king heads on pikes!!
  4. OL protection as a "cocoon of love". Brilliant.
  5. X factor: bring in Marv pre-game for some Churchillian D-Day speech that will set the troops afire. Like: God almighty, in a few short hours we will be in battle with the enemy. We do not join battle afraid. We do not ask favours or indulgence but ask that, if you will, use us as your instrument for the right... -- Wolverton, CO, 1/506 PIR
  6. I'll be drinking tequila. Uno, dos, tres, catorce.
  7. Just give me Gus Johnson and xyz... I'll be pretty happy, regardless of the game I'm watching.
  8. Side note: Bills are 4th in league w a 46.57% win rate on 3rd down. Last year, 46.64%. Clearly then, our third down O has fallen off the cliff.
  9. My call sign in Iz and Afg (elsewhere it was AnvilMike6...too hard to explain). Anyway, comes from "Backstreets"... Where desperate lovers park they sat with the last of the Dukestreet Kings. I hadn't been able to follow a full season since 2001 as I was always somewhere else, so to speak. As soon as I knew that part of life was over, I joined the board in Oct 2019 but kept the call sign to remind me of the fallen.
  10. About 4 drinks in and, as predicted, I am going ape sh*t.
  11. Or, hopefully, I'm going ape-s right along with you RR.
  12. Got a bottle of Milagro silver TQ for Christmas. Cracking in 3, 2, 1...
  13. I agree w all your posts and sentiment...but we only have 3 games left, so DS will need to avg 126y/g.
  14. 65 Toss Power Trap. Yaahhh!!!
  15. Fair point. Imho, I actually thought TB* was trying to throw OoB w maybe a little 50-50 ball thrown in. I would guess 80-20 former over the latter. If it was the latter, however, then that was one of the most ridiculously skilled passes I've ever seen. Back foot, clutch, defender-in-his-grill type throws.
  16. The most poignant, meaningful image of this game: JA on the bench, post-Knox TD, his injured, bare foot propped up by his own helmet. Trainers scurrying about trying to tape it up. But Josh is paying them zero attention, not grimacing or showing any signs of concern. Instead, he is utterly focused on the Surface images from the prior series, as he stoically prepares for his next go on the field. Jesus, if we had just one more guy like this, sky is the limit for this team.
  17. Perhaps; he has shown his mental acuity. But I think his physical tools are, quite simply, lacking and as such he will never teach an elite level (ie, on par w JA17). Brady had much better physical skills. I mean, didn't we see how utterly slow and ineffective he was in the missed roll out pass? I was shocked, tbh. Hell, he's slower than Alec Baldwin accepting responsibility for his actions.
  18. I am so ashamed my friend. As penance to you and TBD I've joined Opus Dei. The flogging will continue until my posts are improved. On another note: I actually carried 3 different double action sidearms in The Lands of Real Pow-Pows and Pew-Pews. Baretta m9, Sig 226, and primarily Glock 19. Along w my M4 of course. If they would've handed me a single action Colt, I would've definitely shot myself in the face!
  19. I actually understood this post. But, of course, I'm already drunk. Does that count?
  20. Doh! Never, ever reply after midnight! @Danand @Irv you are absolutely correct. The (sort of) mnemonic device is single action does just one thing--trigger drops hammer-- while double action does two...trigger pull both ***** and drops hammer (though latter can still be manually manipulated. I think in my sleep haze I torqued it up...I've only known this for about 35 years. Sorry for the confusion boys, and thanks for the assist. Will correct above.
  21. Just for clarity, on a double action weapon, the trigger pull, in most cases, both ***** the hammer and actuates to strike the primer...unless you have first manually cocked the hammer. Single action: the hammer must first be manually "cocked" then the trigger pull fires the weapon. This is done with each round fired. Bottom line, in any event: this jackalope broke basically all of the 4 golden rules of gun safety. It's almost impossible to comprehend the stupidity.
  22. I've never smoked...but been a low-level dipper for 25+ yrs. About 1 can/10 days. Started overseas, on ops where you simply have to stay awake and/or need something to work w the adrenaline. Anyway, I don't "feel" effects like smoking as, for example, workouts were never harmed. Anyone have thoughts, advice, experience on saying salud to Skoal?
