  1. Had people tell me Kincaid's drop was a harder ball to come up with than Harmon's...to which I say bullstuff. A high school TE has to make that catch.
  2. I went a couple of years ago before a Thursday night Bills-Browns game. Went in with very low expectations thinking it was just Hard Rock Café without the hamburgers. Dang, was I wrong. Regardless of the inductees, and I agree with your point BTW, it's a great museum and I could have easily spent another three or four hours there. It's definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.
  3. Brooks Robinson's truncated helmet visor.
  4. Been to Canton and a game in Green Bay. Bills got boat raced by the Pack when I went in 2010 but it's a great atmosphere and facility. Wrigley > Fenway but both worth a trip.
  5. What is this all about? FWIW, I'm a Sabres fan.
  6. They're pretty banged up...Gunnar looks like he'll be out a while also.
  7. I think he's a fine player and has a huge upside, but I think about that dropped fourth down pass vs. KC way too much. A high school TE has to make that catch.
  8. Gotta love this woman...Go O's!
  9. Oh, but the creamed spinach was to die for...
  10. Dang, I miss Boston Market! In my young, single, and happy days, they were a solid go-to place to pick up dinner...and I've yet to find a better chicken pot pie.
  11. I'd like to see Adley get some work at first this spring. Basallo is the goods. I've seen the goods and he's the goods.
  12. I wouldn't trade a peanut butter sandwich for a tuna fish with those dolts.
  13. My top ten games at Rich/Ralph/New Era/Highmark, in chronological order: First regular season game vs. Jets, September 30, 1973 Drought win over Fish, September 1980 OT win vs. Rams, December 1980 Roland Hooks Hail Mary win vs. Patriots, November 1981 AFCCG vs. Raiders, January 1991 Comeback Game vs. Fish on Opening Day, September 1991 AFCCG vs. Broncos, January 1992 AFCCG vs. Joe Montana and the Chiefs, January 1994 Playoff win vs. Fish (Tim Tindale Game), December 1995 Win vs. unbeaten 49ers, October 1998
  14. Marriage is like taking a hot bath...after a while, it's not so hot. The wife, of 26 glorious years, hates when I crack that joke.
  15. OJ's driver: "My name is AC, you know who I am goddamnit."
  16. This classic is now almost 60 years old and approaching Social Security. What music today will hold up in 60 years? Nothing that I'm familiar with. Signed: Another old man
  17. That sound of the ball hitting the catcher's mitt in February is the most glorious sound of all...Go O's!
  18. Correct, it was always mid-April. But April is all about the draft now, and May needed some "event" to keep the NFL relevant year-round. Hence, the schedule release was moved a month later.
  19. Fix title. "Super Bowl" is two words!!!! Sorry, just a pet peeve.
  20. Yes, it was a Ch. 9, WUSA here in DC, reporter who then asked the poor guy to see the text. Classless move on the part of the reporter looking for some type of "scoop."
  21. We've tragically lost three students here in Fairfax County, along with their six parents. We know some of the family members. May God have mercy on their souls. Hello Team FCPS, We are devastated by the tragic news as we learn members of our FCPS community have lost their lives in the accident last night at Reagan National Airport. Many are reaching out to share their sorrow and emotions at this difficult time. We are hearing from students, staff members, and others in the community who are expressing their care and concern for those who have lost loved ones. I invite you to join me in keeping all those affected by this deep community loss in our prayers. We have more details that we can now share. Many on the flight were returning from a figure skating event in Wichita, Kansas. What we know at this time is that three of our FCPS students and six of our FCPS parents were lost, affecting multiple schools and departments here at FCPS. Two of the parents were current or former FCPS staff members. Multiplying the grief are the siblings, spouses, relatives, friends and colleagues who have lost loved ones. We must remain sensitive to the privacy needs and concerns for those who are directly involved. Therefore, we are not releasing specific information such as names out of care for those who are directly involved at this time. We know many in our FCPS community are now learning this tragic news and understanding the enormity of our loss. We have resources available to support students, staff, and families. I want to specifically recognize our principals, teachers, counselors, and other crisis teams who are responding to the needs of our students, families and staff during this most difficult time. We also continue to be thankful for our first responders and community partners. If you are feeling anxious, frustrated or overwhelmed, and need support, please consider reaching out to the FCPS Employee Assistance Program (EAP). We will continue to keep you updated as we are able. I speak for all of us at FCPS as we offer our condolences to everyone involved in this heartbreaking tragedy. It is a time to hold one another closer…
