  1. From perusing the sports section of their Web site -- which, um, sucks -- I'm not entirely surprised. Get rid of the typos, 6albany; you're supposed to be professionals. At any rate, POLITE calls to the station may help change their minds, since neither Indy nor Minny would seem to have a hometown presence there. I could see it if the game involved one of the Giants' NFC East rivals, but this selection doesn't make sense. Edit: Harv, it's showing on their TV listings page. Colts-Vikes at 1, Pats*-Jest at 4. http://www.cbs6albany.com/sections/tvlistings/
  2. Just so they don't screw with the media site ...
  3. Journeyman. Bills played against Milfie in the 2005 season opener, as I recall. Dave Carr, admittedly a sack magnet, went south five times in that game. Brown is better than what they had there yesterday, but not as good as their missing starters.
  4. Y'all saw the jam-packed Pontiac this weekend. Where the hell am I going to find room for a set of golf clubs? Getting this mob on a golf course would undoubtedly be amusing, though ...
  5. We wuz jinxed on the blocked kick. Seems like I just remember reading something about the Bills being the only team in the league to not have a FG attempt blocked in the last five years. (FYI, the last one was Mike Hollis' try against the Bears in 2002.) Thought it was in the weekly release, but I didn't find it on a quick readthrough ...
  6. Talking about murder, while one of HIS team's players fights for his life after being shot. Yup, that's class.

  8. You might find the answers you seek in this thread.
  9. As long as it didn't involve a beatdown or criminal charges, I don't see why not ...
  10. Nine posts in, and I'm still waiting for someone to tell me why I should give a sh-- about either Jared Allen or Tennessee's backup defensive backs. Do either of those teams play the Bills this year? No? Oh, that's right -- crusades don't NEED a reason to exist.
  11. http://myespn.go.com/blogs/afcsouth/0-4-50...discussion.html FWIW, Kuharsky covered the Titans for the Tennessean for several years before taking the job at ESPN.
  12. Boooooo ... All kidding aside, I think I heard a better play-by-play call at the high school game I covered Saturday.
  13. While he does have the daily radio show and the SportsCenter gig, he announces precisely one NFL game a year. (And this is a very, very good thing.) I can understand someone who doesn't catch the morning show failing to recognize his voice. And to whoever thought Mike and Mike and Mike would be a good idea ...
  14. True ... ... and true. Fortunately, by the time they play the Jets and Pats* in December, Engram and/or Branch should be back.
  15. Whoa. Anyone got Steve Largent's phone number? They may need him for the next game ...
  16. Perhaps not, but I was definitely aware of the schadenfreude invading the Jim Kelly Club at halftime as the news spread ... Too bad for Brady, but the thought of arrogant Bostonfans crying into their pints of Sam Adams makes for a pleasing mental image.
  17. Correct. Few teams play more 3- and 4-WR sets than Seattle, and they stuck with it even though their receiving corps was depleted.
  18. Good question, especially since he coached both offense and defense at the college level. He's already had a couple of head-coaching interviews; at some point, that AHC title won't be enough to scare teams away. He's a master of STs, obviously, but I think he'd be more than capable of running an entire team. Some observers suggest that a special-teams coach might not have the necessary background for the job, as opposed to an offensive or defensive coordinator. I might remind them that when Kansas City hired Marv Levy in 1977, his only previous pro experience was with the "kicking teams."
  19. Agreed, good story by a talented writer. Can't give much credit to the P-I, though, except for picking a good stringer. Bill Hoppe is based in Buffalo -- used to work for the AP up there, IIRC -- and covers the Sabres beat for the OTH. And two of the best decisions Dick Jauron ever made were to keep Bobby April on the coaching staff when he took over from Mike Mularkey, then give him the "assistant head coach" title to keep other teams from interviewing him. The Bills are lucky they still have him.
  20. Atlanta TV station bought the remaining tix for Falcons-Lions to lift the blackout there. All of this weekend's games are now listed as sellouts, but it was damn close for a couple of them ... including Jets-Dolphins. Guess Chad Pennington isn't stirring up a fan frenzy in Habana Norte?
  21. Here's the link to the transcript: http://proxy.espn.go.com/chat/chatESPN?event_id=22282 Some damn funny stuff therein.

  23. Jon ?!? Tailgating commish Joe Cahn once called him "Pinto Ron," but Jon? No clue where he got that. I'm trying to think if I even remember anyone named Jon in that crew ...
