Dennis in NC

Do any of you North Carolina guys know of a Bills bar in the Raleigh area? I will be moving there soon, and I see no listing for NC in the Bills Backers forum. Thanks!

I want to see what Bryce Brown can do with 2 decent guards on the line. Brown has something like 4.4 speed at 220 lbs. Get some decent guards! Augh!

Today, Kyle looks like he could be like Andy Devine... On second thought, most young folks don't know who the heck Andy Devine is. He was Wild Bill Hickok's sidekick Jingles for you oldsters out there. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0222596/

Well, yes, he does. The kind of juke Miller made is often referred to as an "ankle breaker", but usually the term is used figuratively. Miller's juke was an "ankle breaker", but the term applied literally this time.

John, that is the factor that makes this latest implosion easier to accept. It is not the same old low budget ownership in place. The Pegulas will have to clean house and hopefully get the right advice on rebuilding.

Pat, you always seem like such a negative SOB, but you have surely got this one right.

Well, at least they no longer start each game with "Spiller up the middle"...

We must all find some way to cope. Yes, 15 years now with no playoffs. For the first time in ~17 years, I do not have Sunday Ticket because I lost my job. I watch a lot of Bills games with a rabid Bills fan in his man-cave. He jumps up and swears, curses individual players, really gets emotional. I still B word a little, but am fairly stoic when the wheels start coming off the Bills gameday machine. I feel a kind of numbness when another season goes down the tubes. At least this year, they survived until mid-November before they sh&% the bed.

Well, then he could truly fill Eric Moulds' shoes...

This is not a fair assessment of Bryce Brown IMO. He had a few (10?) carries vs the Jets, and did as poorly as Boobie. We certainly need a better sample than that. To say Brown has no value (or the RB position has no value) is not correct. Brown had like 4.4 speed and weighs around 220 IIRC. The Bills are not exactly skilled at using their RBs correctly; not in the Hackett era. I think Bryce will resemble Fred more than he resembles CJ. I mean to say I think he is a strong RB you can run up the gut. Hard to tell against the Jets strong DL and with the Bills weak guards. I believe you will see better things from Bryce Brown in the near future.

Very true. And it usually falls in favor of the more glamorous team (49ers in this case). This whole phantom penalty thing is ruining the game. It gets very annoying to have to watch all that crap slow the game down, and there does not seem to be any positive side to it (other than for the good teams that get the calls their way).

Wow, this great! If you have not heard this (and I just listened for the first time), you should spend 90 seconds and give it a listen. Now I see what Terry was talking about at his PC.

You can play them, but you must quote Andre Reed before playing each BJ song: F&%K Bon Jovi!!!" It was fun to see Terry echo Andre's feelings regarding BJ and the Toronto group in his press conference!

Yeah, those allergies have hit me a few times through this whole process. Especially the day when the Pegulas were announced as the winning bidders. I was at work and was getting pretty choked up. Yesterday's press conference was another moment. Happy tears, or near-tears, it was a great time for Bills fans everywhere.

No, not a hockey guy first, he said. It was just that the opportunity to buy a hockey team emerged before the opportunity to buy a football team. He said that he had been involved with football for a long time, from his youth watching the Lions (when Ralph was a part owner), right down to helping recruit high school kids for a certain college team.

Does anyone know what happened to the guy from Mexico City? I believe he attended the Miami game, but don't recall him posting since then. Terry could host some of these guys from far flung places.

That's beautiful! So isn't Kyle now 5-0 lifetime against The Lions?

No, Kyle Orton did several things better than EJ. Mostly the decisive throws, when EJ would most likely hesitate and miss the moment. I like EJ, but he is not ready to be a starting QB.

And that call/no-call was about 8 yards beyond the line IIRC. Blatant mugging of Sammy, and no call. Must be a "vegas-ing" thing as the other poster said.

I saw that Arian Foster clip on Jimmy Kimmel, repeating the same blurb each time he was asked a question. Pretty bizarre stuff.

A long shot, I suppose, but I have to ask. Any Bills fans/bars in Santa Fe? Thanks!

And Jordan Gay was good on kickoffs, and can also punt or place-kick if there is an injury in those areas. Good pickup. What a happy day.

Wow, UPCs from 5 18-packs (or bigger) and original receipts? Boy, aren't fu%$nuts generous?!

Lucky for me this is on NBC, because my local CBS channel is blacked out in a dispute with DirecTV. Of course, DirecTV is reneging on their deal to provide me my local channels. My CBS channel now says to go see DirecTVpromise.com -- sure, that helps me a lot, you SOBs! It should be a great game.

Nailed it on the head, you did! (in Yoda voice)
