  1. This line from Seths bio should explain everything. http://www.suite101.com/profile.cfm/sachinseth My name is Sachin Seth and I'm a second-year Journalism student at Ryerson University in Toronto. I've been interested in writing ever since the third grade, where my friends and I would write short stories about cultural phenomena like the Sasquatch and the Loch Ness monster to read to our classmates. I had always been more interested in writing fiction over non-fiction, however being open to writing in all ways, I gave news stories a shot. In my final year of high-school I wrote my first article for the Toronto Star, which got published; I remember the feeling was unmatched. Up until then I had only had my family, friends and teachers tell me I was a good writer, but to see that a complete stranger (the editor at The Star) saw my writing as worthy of being in the newspaper, made me actually believe I had something (family and friends have to be nice right?). I kept writing for the Toronto Star every month and developed my love for journalism, namely new media, broadcasting and investigative. I applied to Ryerson and was accepted to a class of 150 from 2000+ applicants; the feeling of being accepted here was much like the feeling of being published for the first time. Even with all this I've managed to keep my creative train chugging along the track, placing in several short story competitions and winning several poetry competitions. I am also near completing a full-length novel.
  2. A Ryerson Journalism degree is equal to being Valedictorian of a Kentucky High School. They cant even teach you how to spell flavor or color corretly. In one short article, this clown had at minimum 4 facts wrong. Of course he could always try broadcasting, the word "eh" translates nicely to TV and radio, or not. Well, maybe Canadian TV and Radio, rabbit ears and tin cans with strings.
  3. It always amazes me that the Bills are considered a small market and a small media market. The last time I was in Toronto the hotel had Buffalo stations on the TV. So shouldn't Toronto's population be figured into our market size? If you put a compass point on Orchard Park and drew a 75 mile radius (TV Blackout rule), Buffalo would then be considered a big market. While I do not believe the Bills when they say the games in Toronto are a move to increase Canadian fans, it really would be a good idea if it were true. Only way I will believe it is when Ralph sells the team to local interests, renegotiates a lease or starts plans on a new stadium (waterfront or Niagara Falls)
  4. Where did this a$$clown get his "facts"? 50% of tickets sold are to Canadians? Ralph has been asking the state and county to build him a new stadium for the past 10 years???? Poor fan base? OK, i just wasted to much time and energy on this loser!
  5. I talked to someone in the ticket office last week. He said the increase in season tickets is a direct result of the Toronto game. Canadians are buying Bills season tickets to insure getting tickets for the Toronto games.
  6. How did Ricky Williams not make this list? Hell, his dreads are so famous that Ditka showed up at a press conference wearing a dred wig in honor of him.
  7. American Idol loser Jason Castro!
  8. Ok, I just read the entire article trying to find out who "LSI" is. Guess I must be brain dead today, because I can not seem to figure this one out.
  9. They obviously have no trouble waiting five years, that is how long they signed a contract for. After those five years, the Bills lease will expire and so will Ralph. This is a done deal, let us just hope they build a mega stadium in Hamilton so we can go without fighting Toronto traffic.
  10. While he might be a scumbag, the worlds biggest? Have your forgotten about the following? Wall and Hall of Famer - O J Simpson Drew Peterson Altemio Sanchez Roger Clemens Elliot Spitzer Bryan Cox Sean Avery
  11. Lots of us "single digit" posters lost our rankings when the server crashed. That being said, you are an arrogant ass if you think you have to have 1000's of posts for a point or opinion to be valid.
  12. There are eight total games in the next five years. 5 Regular Season 3 Pre-season
  13. They took a break from Hockey to talk football?
  14. You don't say?
  15. I love the Rob Riddick like dives into the end zone!
  16. Way to go out on a limb!
  17. He looks even more pathetic in this video highlight.
  18. John Clayton picked the Bills, three starters in the first three rounds. Beastmode, Poz, Edwards. The other two clowns picked the Browns and the Giants. Just heard this segment.
  19. If you get a chance, check out Brad's web site. He was talking about it durning Friday nights show on WECK 1230 A. M.
  20. It doesn't mention the Bills because they are moving to Toronto.
  21. Well, to get Brad on your side it would have been a good idea to spell in name correctly. I am probably not the one to act as the spelling or grammar police, but just sayin'. R I T E R .
  22. Browns at Eagles Thanksgiving Night. A much better source. http://www.profootballtalk.com/2008/04/15/...ksgiving-night/
  23. Take a closer look at that sight, not the most reliable source in the world. It is the personal website of some dork Pats fan.
  24. To begin today's Jerry Sullivan show, Schopp and Sully attempted to have a conversation on the NFL. Both admitted to knowing absolutely nothing about any of the players in this years draft. Schopp mocked the national media and their draft coverage. The segment ended with Schopp crying and whining about getting jelly on his pants. These two chumps couldn't even fill a 15 minute segment on NFL football.
  25. Good point. Please note that Bishop started this thread at 11:00 P.M. and he said Erik got in touch with him at the watering hole. I am sure Erik has a 9-5 job, so at minimum that gave Biship 6 quality hours of pounding Genny Screamers before this post was started.
