Wow, you mean I could relive the most painful sports games I've ever had to watch any time I want? Let me know when the corresponding AFC Championship games are on DVD.

One thing I know: There are no football fans who love their punter the way Bills fans love Moorman.

I think DePodesta could be a pretty good GM but he's working for an owner with all sorts of money problems who should have never been sold the team. But who cares? The Angels own SoCal anyway (despite wasting all that money on Orlando Cabrera).

The owners should set whatever rules they want, give the players a deadline to come around (as individuals), and after the deadline passes blacklist anyone who hasn't come around. The players aren't holding any of the cards here. They can't start their own league and no one misses them now. And each player probably has only about 10 years in their life when they can really play pro hockey at a high level. So if they want to waste up to 5 of those year, good for them. The next batch of replacements is right around the corner. If they promoted the entire AHL right now, I'd go to the games just like I always have.

So much for pillow talk.

They haven't changed the Create-A-Team feature in four years either. When I got Madden 2002 I thought it was pretty lame - 4 jersey choices, none of which looked like an NFL uniform. Madden 2004 was exactly the same. I went with ESPN NFL 2K5 this year but I hear Madden didn't bother improving many things yet again. Create-A-Team is not a huge feature. It's just something fun to play with. BUT it would be so easy to beef it up to the point where it'd be awesome to make your own team and insert it into the NFL. They could hire an intern to do it.

The new scene with "Sauron's Mouth" at the end of ROTK is going to add a lot. If you've read the book, you'll know what I'm talking about. It'll add a ton more emotion when Aragorn makes that last charge at the Gates of Mordor.

That's a decent comparison. This sure sucks.

Is that Korean food or characters from the next Star Wars?

Possibly because most NHL players are high school graduates (barely) who've been 'special' their entire lives and have no idea what they're talking about. They think they should be paid like athletes who play sports that people across the nation actually watch and play on teams that actually make a profit each season. Bring on the replacement players.

I think our board has better avatars.

The Mets really need to bring back their royal blue hats with the solid orange logo. Those goofy black hats with the multi-colored NY logos look like Yankee knock-offs from some movie where they couldn't secure the actual rights to portray the Yankees. What? Pedro? Oh, uh, alright whatever.

I thought the same thing. I'll bet he's still embarassed by that awful debut of his. He was playing like he had something to prove, and I liked seeing it.

Maybe.

It was 2 yards with 2 minutes left. So Cleveland got 88% of their yards in the last two minutes when the Bills had all their scrubs in and the game was basically over. Unbelievable.

There is so much right with that picture, I don't even know where to start. Nike could make one of their melodramatic commercials about what sports is all about from that one.

Meanwhile, in Austin, Texas...... It's 70 degrees, the sun is shining, the girls are pretty, and the economy is booming. [but, to be honest, if Buffalo/Niagara was a well-run region, I'd probably find my way right back. The place being an economic blackhole and a dead end for progress just kills me. And also I miss hockey and pierogies.]

And you're so humble too. How do you do it? [This gets my vote as saddest post of the year]

LOL Great.

So? Just because socialism has never worked even once in the entire history of mankind, that doesn't mean it's a bad idea. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go try to crap out a brick of gold. It's never happened before, but hey it's worth a shot.

What if someone builds a Death Star? Wait, no, that already happened.....a long time ago....in a galaxy far, far away...... But, wait, what if someone builds another one?!?!? HOLY sh--!!!!

Yep, just another day at the office here in Texas. Next week is the big "hang the gays in the streets" festival! (I like when liberals prove how smart they are by showing how they have no idea what the red states are like.)

With all the momentum from the past 3 weeks, and this being the first home game after two big road wins in a row, the crowd is going to be jacked up like it hasn't been in years. If the Bills get out to a good start, they could absolutely flatten the Browns. And even if they struggle early, I think they win (nice to be able to say that about a Bills team).

Here's a fantastic picture of the crazy B word. Is that the bus driver from South Park? Also shows what happens when you try to cut your own hair. Scary.
