Bills will wear White at home this weekend
sullim4 replied to FluffHead's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It's likely due to the fact that the Bills will be wearing blue on the road in Dallas. Brandon likely wants equal time in each uni for marketing purposes. -
The referee is going to be Ed Hochuli.

Stevie Johnson's Halloween Costume = Chan Gailey!!

If that is the hotel that Ralph is putting players up in for the Toronto series, the "Ralph is cheap" crowd has some fresh ammunition... -
Obviously hindsight is 20/20, but given how things have gone, it's fun to look back on this. Quite a few gems in there: http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/topic/83674-fitzpatrick-signed/page__p__1330758__hl__fitzpatrick__fromsearch__1#entry1330758

That is not the same as pass interference. The referee (almost) always says with illegal contact: "Prior to the pass, while the QB was still in the pocket" Illegal contact requires both of those things. "Incidental contact" that people do not want called as DPI always occurs after the pass.

Will Chris Brown report on this? Doubtful http://nationalpost.stats.com/fb/story.asp?i=20111026131634782764508 Updated link to give JW the byline... ESPN put its AFC East blogger in the article so I thought he wrote it...

Wow, very sad if true. He was truly one of the greats from the 90s teams - up there with Jimbo, Thurman, Andre, and Bruce. It really makes you wonder if playing football for that long is a healthy thing to do...

Can we be 5-1 at the BYE week?
sullim4 replied to blakesbills16's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Dude, read what people are writing. We think the Bills will win if they score more points than the Giants. Yes, there will be a score, this isn't for *****-and-giggles. Where is Crayonz when we need him? -
Nope: WEEK 6 – Oct. 16 GAME PLAY-BY-PLAY/ANALYST PRODUCER/DIRECTOR 1:00 PM, ET starts: •Buffalo @ N.Y. Giants Jim Nantz/Phil Simms Lance Barrow/Mike Arnold •Indianapolis @ Cincinnati Kevin Harlan/Solomon Wilcots Jim Rikhoff/Bryan Lilley •Jacksonville @ Pittsburgh Ian Eagle/Dan Fouts Bob Mansbach/Suzanne Smith 4:00 PM, ET starts: •Cleveland @ Oakland Marv Albert/Rich Gannon Ross Schneiderman/Mark Grant •Houston @ Baltimore Greg Gumbel/Dan Dierdorf Mark Wolff/Bob Fishman

Playing well will get you the top team. We get Nantz/Simms next week against the NYG.

When they send LBs up to pressure the QB on every play, they're going to give up medium-range passes down the middle and allow a lot of yards after the catch. The coaching staff seemed to be OK with that as long as Vick got hurried and knocked around. The collapse during the Cincy game worried me a bit, and this game didn't do anything to relieve those fears... but at the same time, I don't think you can use data from this game to go overly negative on the LB corps given the game plan they went ahead with.

They are highly rated, but their efficiency isn't that great: http://www.charitynavigator.org/index.cfm?bay=search.summary&orgid=4509 A little less than $.81 of every dollar goes towards their programs, while $.12 goes to "administrative" expenses and $.07 goes to fundraising costs. By comparison, the regional food bank I volunteered at last month has $.93 of every dollar going towards their programs.

When did we really start getting better ??
sullim4 replied to Scrappy's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It might not be pleasant to think about, but it might be the day Ralph became physically unable to meddle with any of the critical decisions facing the franchise. -
Agreed, I don't care that the Lions and Bills are both 2-0... you don't get blown out by those two teams in consecutive weeks. Haley is a goner. As awful as Crennel was in Cleveland, he likely gets the interim title until the end of the season.

...with an escape clause to allow for building a new stadium locally if some miracle were to occur. If the team is successful, people will pay more to see the games, and they will be able to afford to build something in a more geographically friendly location for fans located in Southern Ontario or Rochester, perhaps in Niagara or Tonawanda.

Updated cap space for all 32 teams
sullim4 replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
No surprises there.... -
I wish I could, but unfortunately my employer's phones (WP7) aren't on Virgin. I got locked into a 2 year contract this past November with T-Mobile so I really can't change until Nov 2012 (Microsoft gave its employees free phones in exchange for signing 2 year contracts with the carriers). Comcast is the only decent option for internet out here now that Frontier bought out Verizon. I own my modem so I don't pay the rental fee. And of course, Comcast forces you to subscribe to limited cable if you want internet (otherwise they tag on a charge equal to the cost of limited cable). That basically leaves DirecTV as the only thing where I can make some cuts as I'm long out of the 2 year contract I had with them. I can easily afford to pay for all of this... what's making me think twice is the ridiculousness of paying $200/mo for what amounts to casual mobile web usage, about 10 phone calls and text messages per month, internet access, and watching sports on TV.

Cord-cutting is a very real problem for content providers. This past quarter is the first time in history that the two major satellite companies have had a net loss of subscribers (Dish hemmoraged them, DirecTV had a very slight gain, resulting in a net loss). The cable companies' subscriber growth slowed considerably as well. The cable folks have the hammer of caps and charging per-byte for their internet service... and you're going to see a lot of draconian practices around that in the near-term future if these losses continue. Right now the workaround for caps is to subscribe to business-class service but who knows how long that will last. It's sports that's preventing me from cord-cutting. I can get all four major nets OTA for free plus a handful of stupid shopping/religious channels. College football, Sunday Ticket, and the Sabres are really my primary reasons to keep DirecTV at this point... cable TV is such a waste of money anymore. I really regret not suspending my DirecTV service this summer and giving Netflix-only a try. I've watched next to nothing on TV the past few months - just Hells Kitchen and Masterchef. Honestly I am shocked at how much I spend on internet, phone, and TV per month. $70 for the cell phone/data plan + $60 for cable internet + $70 for DirecTV. $200 freaking dollars a month... and I subscribe to the cheapest phone/data plan, the lowest internet tier Comcast offers, and Total Choice+Sunday Ticket on DirecTV.

Pinto Kenny Moves To Hammer's Lot
sullim4 replied to Hammered a Lot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Hammer needs to update his map to something more recent. While accurate, it's easier to see where it is when you've got a close-up overhead shot: http://www.bing.com/maps/explore/?org=aj#5003/s=w/5872/style=auto&lat=r3vg08&lon=8f0n4v&alt=196.816193&z=19&h=345.011346&pid=5874 -
OT: Los Angeles approves stadium deal
sullim4 replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If the Bills move anywhere, it's going to be to Toronto. They aren't going to move to LA with the Chargers being so close by and wanting a new stadium deal. If I had to place money on where the Bills will be in 25 years, I'd say Niagara Falls (could be either side, depending on which government ponies up more money), with training camp somewhere close to Toronto. -
He was only ever overrated in the eyes of Levy. I think everyone can agree that he was the consensus whipping boy on TBD. Heh, Ko Simpson. I forgot about him. I'm Ko Simpson with the Buffalo Bills and I am worth MILLIONS!

I was in a similar situation with regards to furniture 2 years ago when I moved into the townhouse I bought. I ended up buying from carolinachair.com. The couch I got is super-comfortable, made in the USA, and at least after two years, seems to be of pretty high quality. If you don't care for dealing with furniture salespeople, consider these guys.
-
That's actually a really good point that I didn't think of when I initially saw the article. I wonder if they packaged the naming deal to the arena. It would make sense given that they are pulling out of the market, but on the other hand, that deal was signed years ago during the Marine Midland years and is likely cheaper than many other forms of advertising in 2011.

Can we PLEEEEEEEASE Sign Todd Heap or Z. Miller
sullim4 replied to Stussy109's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This team has not had a serviceable tight end since Jay Riemersma. An upgrade at this position is long overdue... get 'er done Buddy!
