Question about Sunday Ticket online
stevestojan replied to Ed_Formerly_of_Roch's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Correct JPS. The in-app airplay doesn't work, but set your iphone/ipad to mirroring and good to go. -
Officially done with Schopp & The Bulldog

I can't stand that idiot. That said, I think his email response is actually well thought out and makes sense. Sure, it didn't apply to you, but they've been doing this for years and know what they know - in this case that if someone holds that long they are likely not going to add much worthwhile content to their show. -
My grandfather is friends with him. My grandpa owned a tavern called Danny's Inn on Kissing Bridge for 42 years (after that was called Red Latern, now called The Last Run) and Ralph and many players throughout the years would stop in. My grandpa is 94 and him and my grandma just celebrated their 72nd wedding anniversary 2 weeks ago, so needless to say, he isn't chatting with anyone on the phone or visiting old friends. That said, he wouldn't listen to anyone who had a negative thing to say about Ralph until about 5 years ago, when, I swear to God, he now says "We'd be doing so much better if Ralph wasn't cheap."

Cowboys DT arrested: Intoxicated Manslaughter
stevestojan replied to Mike In Illinois's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'll probably get killed for this post, but here goes. I haven't driven after drinking in about 8 years. Still think about how lucky I am to not have done anything that I would have to live with the rest of my life - and in turn ruining another family's lives. That's said, when I did think I was "invincible" (see: I was a !@#$ing idiot) I never, ever went over the speed limit. I knew I had been drinking, so, as much as I could I would obey the law to the best of my idiotic ability. I just cannot understand why anyone would ever drink and drive and then travel, as is being reported here, "at a high rate of speed." That's all I got on this one. Tragedy that happens all too often. I guess this could turn political in that the actual fine/punishment for a "first" DUI is absurdly light, but I'll leave that to the PPP folks. Thoughts out to the deceased. -
I literally **** my pants when this happened. Mind you, I was 10 months old, but still.

Why the hell is THIS pinned? There's about 6 pinned threads that this same question could be asked about. What the hell is going on here?

Buffalo ranked second best city to relocate to in America
stevestojan replied to Blaise321's topic in Off the Wall Archives
You're right. It's not like every weekend the wife and I visit the capital building. But on the other hand we do hop on the metro every weekend and get off at one of 6 stops and find some new restaurant or wine bar. Each stop, from DuPont Circle, to Bethesda, to Adams Morgan, to Chinatown/MetroCenter, etc, etc, have more to do than I've ever done in Buffalo. Outside of that, the several (a dozen or more) Smithsonian museums are something that you could do once a month or more for certain. I'm not arguing with the points made by folks like Gordio, but he admittedly says CULTURE is not something he's into. For me, that's way more than museums and art. It's being able to hop on the metro, find a hundred year old bar that serves the worlds best tater tots hand made every week by one woman (yes, tater tots) and the next week be able to eat a steak made by one of the best chefs in the country, and the next week go to the Spy Museum. Now, DC is unique, but most big cities allow you to experience more than buffalo does. And the one thing I cannot STAND, and in not sure this applies to anyone here, is those that market buffalo as one of the greatest cities ever, yet have never lived anywhere else. My sisters are a prime example of this. -

I will say DC is not where I'll stay permently, and I have a pretty sweet set up. I actually live I Chevy Chase MD, a block from the DC line. My place is 50 yards from the friendship heights metro stop and I literally work across the street. But while I'm here I'm taking advantage of what a real city looks like. There are parts of DC you shouldn't go, and I don't. The traffic is beyond bad, but again I walk to work and I can actually get to the metro station through my apartment complex. But I've lived in West Palm Beach, FL, Tucson, Arizona, and Virginia Beach. Every time I go home to Buffalo to visit, I'm more convinced that I'll never go back. And yes, Tucson, as awful as that place is, at least has beautiful weather 10 months of the year. July and August are unbearable but everything is air conditioned. I hated Tucson, but Buffalo doesn't have much on it. -

Every video of Buffalo like this shows city hall, Shea's, an an arial shot of Delaware park. Over and over. They're right. All other cities are the same. Like my current city. There's the Washington monument, the White House, and the Vietnam Memorial in every city. Oh and Bethesda Row which has more nice bars and restaurants that all of Buffalo - minus everything being deep fried. I love Buffalo because its my original home and my family lives there - but let's quit kidding ourselves.
