Then go follow the Jets, Giants or Patriots there in Albany. This is THE worst subject thread I have ever seen on this board!

This sounds similar to President Obama and the three (3) starving teenage Somali pirates killed last month. Obama's authorization to the US Navy included having the pirates heads blown off by being shot by military snipers. Did Obama go too far? Yes. The starving teenage Somalis did not need to die. Did the pharmacist go too far? Yes. The teenage robber did not need to die. Is there any indignation or investigation or murder charges against President Obama? No. Just look the other way. As a matter of fact, let's concentrate on Bush's torture instead. Is there any indignation or investigation or murder charges against the pharmacist? Yes. He deserves it. So does Obama.

With hot women like Sarah Palin in the Republican party we definitely get "it"! With brutally ugly women like Caroline Kennedy and Sonia Sotomayor it's abundantly clear that if that's what Democrats refer to as "it" then you can all have "it".

I'm curious. Are you from Malta or Orchard Park? I was leaving Saratoga last summer driving south on Route 9. Something caught my eye on the right side of the road. It was NE Patriots neon sign in a bar window. I guess it was a Patriots bar. Spooked me BIG TIME! I don't think we have any of those here in the 'Cuse!

I live in Syracuse. I LOATHE lacrosse. I LOVE Dinosaur BBQ!

If Dick Juron is replaced he will be replaced with another Dick Juron type coach. Do you all realize this?

It's like this, folks: The Bills partied their brains out the week before the first SB. Had Norwood's kick made it they would have partied their brains out for the following 8 months and never made it to the playoffs the following season.

...liberals just don't care when a Democrat President MURDERS people. Just let the story die off, I guess. But if a Republican President tortures terrorists? http://mrssatan.blogspot.com/2009/04/obama...li-pirates.html Obama Murders Teenage Somali Pirates Divider...Warmonger! The hostage standoff between Muslim Somali pirates and their hostage, Captain Richard Phillips, ended tragically when Barack Hussein Obama, Junior, ordered U.S. Navy Seal snipers to assassinate the pirates. Obama is a Warmonger, a charge The Left salivatingly applied in liberal doses to George W. Bush. According to Bloomberg the ages of the executed pirates were ages 17 to 19. The captured pirate is 16 years old. Sixteen years old! He's just a kid and so were the other three pirates. Obama ordered the execution of teenagers; children really. He must feel like a real tough guy. A real leader. A big man. What's next for The Fraud From Kenya - stealing candy from children and shoving then tripping the elderly? Where were the skilled negotiations from Obama, who tells us he can resolve all things peacefully? Where was "talking with the enemy"? Why the rush to such a violent ending? The Left is famous for saying W. Bush didn't allow the UN enough time for inspections in Iraq despite the fact that the UN issued some - I forget the exact number - 18 or more resolutions. Why wasn't there more time allowed in order to reach a peaceful, non-violent conclusion with the teen pirates? The teen pirates were simply looking for a means of sustenance. The Left is famous for asking who is America to impose our value system, morals or standards of behavior on those who have virtually nothing to eat, no shelter, little clothing? The teen pirates were only looking for a way to improve their lot in life. Their choice of piracy may not have been the best choice, but did Obama need to kill three teen-aged Muslims? In a moment where greatness was required, Obama resorted to the brutal execution of three teenagers. Who are we to do this? We are America, and Obama aggressively promotes his brand of American Imperialism around the world - something The Left spent the past eight years defining as unacceptable behavior. What about the due process of the teen pirates? What about their civil liberties? What about their right to Habeas Corpus? Oh, The Left would be raising all these issues had teen pirates been executed by a Republican president. But Obama receives the Coveted Free Pass. If we have learned anything from The Left, it is that bullying, warfare and militaristic confrontation is not the answer to conflict. The answer is talking and negotiation. Where was this during the teen pirate stand-off? AWOL. The dead teen pirates are more examples of Obama's American Imperialism. He is in the driver's seat. Nothing has changed. Obama continues the mode of why the world hates us; we are the aggressor. Blame America, it's our fault. It is our fault, I wholeheartedly agree with the Liberals this time. Where was the outreach from The Community Organizer In Chief to the pirates? Where was his compassion for the below poverty level of existence for the teen pirates? The pirates were just trying to put food on the table for their families. Sure, piracy is wrong, but who are we to judge it using only our own limited and narrow standards? Perhaps we need to work harder, much harder, in order to understand and accept the culture and tradition of the downtrodden pirates who are simply trying to better their lives. Chances are they chose piracy because it's the only avenue for their existence. Obama's execution of the teen pirates is already fomenting more acts of aggression against the United States and our presence around the world. American Imperialism is what it is, and it is what the world hates. Obama's execution of the teen pirates has resulted in Somali pirates - most likely teenagers - seizing four ships in the past 24 hours. Obama's order that allowed the ruthless slaughter of these unfortunate civilian causalities has already caused a new wave of pirate attacks. Obama's actions assures only more aggression and violence directed at us. And all of this is our fault. America is to blame. Obama is to blame. It's his fault....all his fault. The teen pirate episode does not, in any way, reflect a Obama success in passing any "test". He gave the order to shoot and kill teenagers while the murder rate in his home base of the south side of Chicago continues skyrocketing. I haven't checked, but if it's not out there already, it's only a matter of time until some Obama Cultists blame the Somali Teen Pirate episode on their wild conspiracy theory of Dick Cheney's Shadow Presidency:

thewildrabbit nailed it: "The problems that I noticed were: in that first super bowl with Kelly calling his own plays the Bills simply didn't run Thurman Thomas enough." It was our one true shot at the VL trophy and greedy Jim Kelly screwed us! Yup!

Yes, but SF and the Giants brought home the hardware from their respective SB games. It's not a Buffalo Bills thing. It was the NFC being much better than the AFC during that time. While the Greatest Comeback game against Houston in 1993 is celebrated here, I am probably the ONLY Bills fan who is embarrassed at that game. Both teams were horrible. Dallas discovered (proved) that about 3 weeks later against us in the SB.

Had we played SF (instead of the Giants) in Super Bowl XXV SF would have won by at least 10 points. Subsequent SBs we weren't even close. No dynasty.

Lamentably, your friend is 100% correct.

You feel the front seven seem suspect. You also feel that the O-line looks promising but might take a while. So, why are you excited for this season? I agree with much of your post, seriously, but I'm not at all excited going into this season.

MSNBC 1 - They're NOT covering the Pelosi scandal. 2 - Keith Olbermann takes like 5 minutes and 250 words to ask a simple question. 3 - Rachel Maddow is the cure for insomnia. 4 - Olbermann/Maddow are concentrating on Bush/Cheney re: the Iraq war justification. 6 years later.

Paulus' next stop after SU - The Buffalo Bills!

Many of us here in Syracuse were disappointed to see CBA graduate Greg Paulus play college basketball for Duke instead of playing football. Paulus won a New York State Class 'AA' Championship on the very field where he'll be playing in the fall. We're excited. We want him to play pro for the Buffalo Bills! If anyone can do it, Greg can!! http://www.cnycentral.com/sports/sports_story.aspx?id=299794 RALEIGH, NC (AP) -- Greg Paulus is returning home to Syracuse to play football. The former Duke point guard will enroll in graduate school at Syracuse and try to make a comeback in football for the Orange, he said Thursday. "My gut and my heart were telling me that (Syracuse) was the best place for me," Paulus said from Durham, N.C., during a conference call. The decision ends a month of speculation whether the one-time star high school quarterback from Syracuse would resume his football career.

I am not a troll. My questions regarding the obvious deathly FAILURE of President Obama are 100% valid. I keep asking them and all I receive are idiotic Thomas Jefferson, Columbine High School, Compton, etc, references! Blzrul is not condenscending. It's just that my probing of Obama for the FOUR days prior to these starving teenage Somali pirates getting their heads removed from their shoulders clearly bother her! She has NO answers!

There is a 4th surviving pirate, however. The surviving 4th Somali pirate is supposed to be charged with piracy, etc. I'm dying to hear what he has to say in a court room via a vigorous defense attorney seeking deflection and sympathy from the jury: "President Obama killed my three friends. He never even asked what we wanted for return of the ship and its crew. We're poor and hungry. The situation lasted FOUR days and got worse every day. Why did Obama kill my friends? Why are they dead? We're only TEENAGERS and we're just trying to help our hungry families!" I'm also sure the vigorous defense attorney will drill down on the specifics of Obama's authorization, again seeking deflection. Unless, of course, the White House gets involved and has the charges dropped!

The Columbine situation is not the same. The Columbine killers went to school to kill. The Somali pirates hijacked a ship so they could exchange it for money. Then they take the money and buy food for themselves and their families. What specifically did the Somali pirates want in exchange for the ship and her crew?

Well, not to put too fine a point on things, I want to know what President Obama was doing for FOUR days to effectuate a peaceful outcome. How did he fail so miserably? Why do other countries and even NATO manage to end these situations peacefully almost all of the time? Why did President Obama feel the need to kill starving teenagers? All they wanted to do was eat!

Excellent parallel! Were the Compton teenagers shot by LAPD snipers? Was the Mayor of Los Angeles involved? Because if this actually did happen we WOULD have a full investigation! And riots if the Mayor was a Republican!! Had George Bush been in place of Barack Obama during this whole Somali pirate disaster the likes of Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, MSNBC, et al, would have been ALL OVER Bush! One simple question to start the investigation: What did the Somali pirates WANT and why didn't President Obama give thm what they wanted?

For the 10th time - WE DON'T KNOW THAT! Wouldn't President Obama, a man who is so disgusted with the waterboarding treatment of US held terrorists, a man who wants to release classified terrorist information, want to FULLY disclose ALL the details of how these TEENAGE Somali pirates got their heads blown off by US Navy snipers? Doesn't he want to tell us what he was doing for FOUR days?

You just don't want to understand! Why do other countries and NATO seem to resolve these situations peacefully most of the time? Why did the US have military snipers involved when NO other country and NATO do this? Why was the US Navy involved in the first place? What was the White House actually doing for FOUR days? What did the TEENAGE Somali pirates want? Why wasn't it given to them? WHY DID THIS LAST FOUR DAYS? Bottom Line: You CAN NOT tell me that there was NO way to have a peaceful outcome to this situation. President Obama got the result he bargained for. Three TEENAGE Somali pirates dead and absolutely NO investigation as to why.

Here, yes. Elsewhere, other people are looking into this. It's pretty interesting to watch it develop!
