  1. Isn't he the Rhodes scholar? Would he want to give that up to play on Sundays?
  2. Linky Jeeziz, the Bills have played at Jax so many times over the last several years, it's almost like they're in the AFC East....
  3. Nothing says "Christmas" like Walker, Texas Ranger...
  4. BFD, so he tossed a chunk of snow into the stands...seems no one was offended, and it looks like the fan who "caught" the snow block was intent on keeping it as a souvenir. This piece of "memorabilia" will probably sit in this guy's freezer forever.
  5. I also find it amazing all the stuff you can buy now that features the characters...I saw Rudolph slippers yesterday, there are a ton of books for the kids that feature the TV storyline, and my 3 year old was given a set of Rudolph cookie cutters that even included Yukon!
  6. They shoulda put the Terps against Navy in tomorrow's game at RFK...would have sold out the place. Instead, they pick Wake. And with the cheapest tix starting at $45, no thanks.
  7. The episode with Ted's choir singing "Charles in Charge" was one of my all-time favorites...
  8. That game was over when Dick failed to challenge the Welker catch on the first Pats' drive...in a season of mostly dumb challenges (the Gore fumble was the only significant one he won?) failing to challenge the Welker, which then led to a NE TD, set the tone for the Bills that day.
  9. A thread of this type popped up a week or so ago, and I'll say now what I said then...The Lynch dance in the endzone after his TD to put Buffalo up 16-7 in Miami, in the 3rd qtr was the turning point. The very next play the Fish hit a long gainer and the rest is history. Marshawn's dance was the downfall...it's been all craptastic ever since.
  10. This is like comparing Caddyshack to Caddyshack II...
  11. Thanks Ken for the great job as always...I think I suggested this game last week. As for Denver, there's just too many to choose from...the 1991 AFC championship game comes to mind of course, but I'll always remember a game in 1981 where Nick Mike-Mayer won a game for the Bills in Orchard Park with a FG in the waning seconds to best the Broncos, 9-7. Box
  12. Classic. My three and five year olds asked me the same thing last week! I wish I had your well-thought out answer at the ready, but alas, I was left to just blame it on sloppy clamation...
  13. I actually like Bob, grew up reading him. However, he owes the entire last 10 years to Zippy Chippy...
  14. Since our only win in 1968 was against the Super Bowl bound Jets, perhaps a review of that game would be in order... Box
  15. The turning point was Lynch's dance in the endzone after his TD put the Bills up 16-7 in Miami, in the 3rd qtr. The VERY NEXT PLAY the Fish gain a gazzillion yards on a pass to Ginn Jr. (I think) and the Fish go on to beat the Bills by nine points. It was that stupid end zone dance that started the whole slide....
  16. And when Rudolph leaves Hermie and Corny at the guest quarters on the Island of Misfit Toys...he fails to shut the door. The Dentist and Yukon shoulda froze to death; leaving King MoonRazor to explain the situation to the authorities.
  17. Completely plausible. But why were there only six reindeer...the Bible says there were eight. And on the Christmas Eve where Rudolph first leads the team, his father, Donner, is left behind, but expresses a deep sense of pride at seeing his son lead Santa's team. What up with 'dat?!?!? The script has more holes than Dick's offensive gameplan...
  18. What the hell was wrong with the misfit doll?
  19. I'm not saying it's right, because it isn't...but this is nothing new. Remember in the NFL Films piece, "A Town, A Team, A Dream," Maguire spoke of fans at the Rockpile who use to throw beer cans, many of them unopened, at the players as they left the field... And poor Booth Lusteg....he got beat up by Bills fans for missing a game winning field goal. His response: "I deserved it."
  20. Very true...it's all politics. All it takes is to get on the bad side of Peter King (see: Monk, Art) and you're toast. Simply put, the Pro Football HOF is just way too political. And, as another poster put it, it's all about the rings (see: Swan, Lynn; Stallworth, John). Sure, Bruce will get in without the rings, but I'm afraid Tasker and Reed will be left on the vine for several more years to come. Not that it's perfect by any means, but the baseball voting process is a tad more "democratic." It's a secret ballot and done via mail, so there's no closed door politicking going on...Canton should look at the Cooperstown model a bit more closely.
  21. When Wegmans opened their first store down here in Virginia several years ago, WNY ex-pats were tailgating in the parking lot at 6:00 AM... Give WNYers an excuse to tailgate...and they won't disappoint.
  22. Wow! Reminds me of the time I found a nice cooler...some poor sap left it out while he was inside the stadium watching the Bills. It was a couple of years ago now...never saw a post about a lost cooler here on TBD, so I kept it.
  23. Saw on another board that this is the first time Fox in Syracuse has had to deal with a Bills-Giants conflict since 2002...and they went with the Giants then as they're doing this coming Sunday.
