Watch it if you are heading to the game....BonW is the BarBill specialty, and often times there is a wait. You could call ahead and order one so you can just swing in and pick it up...might have to 411 the number- bar is on Main St. in E.A.

Does anybody have a link to this video? I was telling my dad the other night about that hit when Roscoe went airborne and he says he was watching that UM-Fla St. game but he doesn't remember it.

Saw his stat line on the ESPN2 ticker and I was happy for the man. Nothing like a little hope for the Dallas fans heading in to the season.... Look for 2 TD drives out of JP tonight....

Looks like the smart money might be on the other London team... 42-0, what happened Nick? Since it is football, and it is England, can you bet on your games?

Today's Buff News said same thing- he'll be back between weeks 2-4. I say week 3 at home vs. ATL. Was Roscoe the Miami receiver who got absolutely punished by a Florida State DB in that game they played in a downpour? I can't remember but I thought it was him. That was some hit.

Why distribute evenly? Who wants to watch the Sabres? I'm a Buffalo boy and they're my squad, but come on...Lindy Ruff hockey is boring as hell. If I was a fan of another team, it would take a lot to get me to watch the Sabres. I bet people who are not fans of the team couldn't name 3 players. Will you tune in to OLN when the Minnesota Wild play the Nashville Predators?

No doubt you are correct CW. #89, why don't you do both? I donated $50 to the Red Cross yesterday at work, and I'm going to the game tonight to have a few beers and watch a couple JP touchdown drives. If you take that attitude you have now, you will always be able to find something in the world to feel down about and make you not want to get outta bed. Certainly feel sad, and help where you can, but also feel blessed that you are healthy and can do the things you love. Don't waste your tickets- there's a lot of people in N.O. who would love to be going to a preseason game tonite.

One of the finest avatars I have seen, Live&Die. Nicely done.

Nah, don't sweat it man. I think JP will start every game, but Holcomb will see some time in games where JP lays an egg. But that would be any backup, not just Holcomb. I mean, if MM didn't yank Bledsoe after 1-5, he'll give JP plenty of time to crash and burn. I know S. Matthews was the option last year, but 1-5 is 1-5. I also view KH as an upgrade over DB. If DB was still here and KH came to town, I would prefer KH.

Not funny and hilarious at the same time.

Does your liberal claptrap ever stop?

It's the NFL bro. The dreaded P word. JP has great potential. Holcomb looks good in a hat and headset. Bottom line. I think (and the Bills brass probably does also) that the Bills can go 7-9, 8-8, or 9-7 with either QB, largely because of the defense and #21. So why would you play the career Captain Clipboard? I wasn't jumping down your throat; I agree with what you posted, but this is the dumbest hypothetical and it's the 90th time it's been played out on this board.

Here's a hypothetical: Holcomb starts this year and the Bills go 8-8. Now we're having the same conversation next year about starting a QB who has thrown 12 NFL passes instead of 5. Let's use our heads here people.

Holcomb is a career backup from a below average college. Who says the Bills would win now with him? JP is the ONLY choice. Holcomb could nurse the team through maybe 3 games. KH had a huge playoff game, and a 900-yard passing game last year, and that's all people remember. NOTE: THEY LOST BOTH OF THOSE GAMES (thanks for reminding me Rockpile). There's a reason he's a career backup, and there's a reason he came to the Bills to be a backup. No teams were knocking down his door as the savior starter.

Did you say Buffalo Hornets?

I'm all for the starters playing a half or more. Exception- give Willis 6-7 touches and yank him. Also, I think they should mix in some of the second string with some starters, but they shouldn't give the second stringers who have already made the team too much burn. Let the guys on the bubble play- Let the young bucks play for their jobs! I love watching special teams in the 4th preseason game. Dudes either make the team or get a chump job like the rest of us. They go all out and it's great to watch.

Sign me up. Please include a sub-subforum for that skank Tara Reid.

Dont forget, the game is not on T.V. in Buffalo until Saturday, because it's not a sellout. So head to the bar whenever you want. I believe the kitchen stays open late, definitely 1am and maybe even 2am. If you are going to the game, I would go to the Bar Bill after, because then you won't have to fight the happy hour crowd. The place is not all that big.

Message on Brown's answering machine: "Hey Dante, it's Rocco from Jiffy Lube, just wondering if you're coming to work today."

Oh man. Take a joke, stroke.

I hope some of my idiot followers can defend me because it's obvious you called me and a couples other out.

Hey idiot, perhaps you should've called Delta and received credit for a future flight instead of "sucking it up." If it was weather related, they would have compensated you, as has been done for me on several occasions. But for a guy that travels so much, I guess you can afford to eat the cost.

BUMP. The season is approaching. I recommend this survivor pool. It is very fun and can be worth big bucks. Nothing shady at all. Give it a shot and sign up.

Someone's gotta jump on this lay-up joke: "Bills are only 24th? That's not right. I think our line is much more offensive than that." BOOOOOOOO!!!!!! GET OFF THE STAGE!!!!!!!!!

It's not this year, is it? I thought I heard that was a part of the new TV deal next year, where the later games in the year could be adjusted to feature possible playoff teams. Love the idea. Nobody wants to see the 3-10 Falcons (without injured Mike Vick) against the 5-8 Redskins (whose offseason free spending was supposed to make them a contender.) How will this work? Paulie Tags/NFL picks? T.V. execs pick? Fans vote? Maybe the matchups will be a surprise because John Madden eats the press release each week.
