nick in* england

Superb middle name. Congrats to you, Mrs and Ben

Woody Ribbeck is to blame. He had us in the all-white uniforms, which are a guaranteed loss. Need to mix and match more - where was the halftime adjustment??

Yup - it's all about hope in that glimmer of a good thing. That, and Sundays suck without football.

This is troll posting... I thought JP showed a lot of heart, grit and sensible decision making in that game. As TMQ will say, it's hard to complete passes when you count one-one thousand and have 3 290lb+ men bearing down on you.

I agree to a point - but I think that the non-int was exactly that... It was too close to call, with that ball moving around all over the place under his body. I think the loss can be pinned on our inability to stop the run, our inability to block anything and our apparant inability to adjust.

Just to make sure that those areas of the team that deserve to get a pasting get it, let's not forget that we haven't shown any ability to stop the run at any point this year..... the front 7 really aren't doing a great job.

i couldn't disagree more. JP looked good - to a point - today. hard to make plays when you have tp scramble 9 passes out of 10

He has NO footwork, he makes things up as he goes along, he has no footwork, he bends at the waist, he has no footwork, Gandy flat out was awful today. Your line next week should look like this: Peters, Reyes, Folwer, Preston, Pennington

"I'm Sailing Awayyyyyyy, set an open course to the virgin seas... etc" "Screw you guys, I'm going home" "And over here we have a gay lion..." "Rrrrrooooooooooooooarrr" (in a gay lion way).

Actually - that's definately a Brit Harrier - and my colleagues tell me that it is actually a standard take off in a war environment because it's harder to shoot a fast moving low target than a slow moving, climbing target...

You have to go Red, get the stripes down the middle helmet style, and the logo properly coloured... That's going to look SWEET.

I get to see one game a year at the Ralph if I am lucky - so it come s at the top of my list every time... But I'd really like to go to Meadowlands for a Giants game, Lincoln Financial Field, University of Phoenix Stadium and Wembly Stadium (when it's finished!). I would also love to go to the Nou Camp and Wrigley Field.

Agreed. Motion passed. If that's your girlfriend, she's hot.

I gotta say - he probably didn;t know his spleen was ruptured DURING the game... I played thru a game on a fully broken ankle once, and only knew it was broken a week later when i still couldn't walk on it... Adrenalin can do funny stuff. Anyway Kirk=No Heart, thus Picard>Kirk

and they say americans don't do irony...

Nahhh - which is a shame... But not much - I am looking to go back to my roots, which is communications and press work...

I am still of the view that we need to permanently be blue/blue and white/blue... Blue/White looks really bad with such dark tops...

Looks like you just did...

Thanks - I already work in Government....

OK this is fun: First up I would rip out the bleachers and add plastic seats in ever section. Those damn aluminium bleachers freeze your ass in December. I'd also knock down the 300 level and start again: Leave the 100 as is. 200 level, leave as is, but replace the Press Box and owners suites with a smaller owners suite/visiting team suite and use the remaining space for more luxury suites/premium seating (We're gonna need to finance this damn thing after all - and the new emerging economy in Buffalo/WNY can probably absorb this). 300 level, replace the current banked seating that is open to the elements with a partially covered banked seating section than circles the entire bowl. The banking would stay as is, but like another post, would fill in the gaps where they currently lie. At the base of the 300 level I would install a full HD ticker style scoreboard for all of the out of town scores, stat highlights, traffic news, etc. Behind each set of goal posts, taking up the top 3rd of the 300 level, I would install 2 state of the art HD jumbotrons, 16:9 ratio. Above the stands I would upgrade the floodlights, with easier access from the top of each stand for maintenance. The bigger changes would be behind/underneath the 300 level... I would add more access to the 300 level with escalators, lifts and more stairs. I would also enclose all of the outside of the stadium inside an outer shell to contain all of the concessions and facilities, expanding the current corridors by about 400% and adding more space for concession stands, toilet facilities and hanging out. Inside this new outer shell building, I would have internet terminals, TVs every 5 yards (showing the game inside and all other NFL games) and a better range of food stalls - focusing on traditional Buffalo foods (Beef on Weck would be the signature dish, but Wings would be a close second - just a matter of how easy they are to eat!). I would also include an option for baguettes, sandwiches and paninis, fruit, juices, etc... I would make the bar areas bigger, but also enclosed, so it it not a free for all in the main gangways for beer. In the family section end fo the stadium there would be no bars. I would also make the new outer shell building two levels, so the lower level would serve the 100, 200 levels, and the upper level serving the 200, 300 levels. There would be a replication of the existing Bills store at the opposite end to the tunnel endzone, taking up the lower level of the outer shell. I would also enhance the media facilities in the tunnel endzone - but starting with a press box below the jumbotron at that end. This would have desks with IDSN and ADSL lines at every workstation, a dedicated TV broadcast booth, with studio facilities and a backroom studio/edit suite function - bringing the TV team in from the trucks outside. The press box would also have a dedicated kitchen, to feed the press at halftime. There would be a dedicated elevator block down to the locker room area where there would be an improved media briefing room created, also with broadcast facilities built in, but also with seating and heating, to make the post-game interviews a little easier and more orderly. I would also widen the tunnel into the stadium to allow opposing buses to drive into the stadium and allow the visiting players off and into the locker rooms. The locker rooms would be expanded and improved. There would be a dedicated road created to the rear of the Fieldhouse and down to Big Tree for the Buses and players to enter/leave by. I would scrap Lot 1, Sienna, Tacoma, 4-runner, Fieldhouse and Matrix lots and replace with some landscaping, open and wide pathways laid with walk of fame bricks to the entraces. I would make a feature of the walkway between the stadium and the fieldhouse to increase football to the fieldhouse and Store. The land to the East of the stadium would be bought up to create the atlernative lot space. I would make Big Tree a 6 lane road from the I90 to the 219 and do the sam with Southwestern, but I would regulate traffic on gameday, so the middle lanes were for thru-traffic only. Southern lot users would be forced to use Big Tree, Northern lots Southwestern, with no access to either road other than the 90 or 219 on gameday... Oh and I also would create a dedicated outdoor practise field, to replace the grass field to the North of the stadium, with the same surface as the fieldhouse and stadium for use in Kids events, falg tourneys, etc. But I would also have a dedicated grass field for practises leading up to games against grass-teams... Finally- I would also create a timetravel device/transporter to allow fans from, say, London England to get to games each and every Sunday.

NAHHH - it'll be 'Munf' or MNF.

This is as good a p;ace as any to add my 2cents on the game: Overall this loss was not a 'how bad are the Buffalo Bills?' kind of game, more of a 'how good are the Chicago Bears?' kind of game. The Bears made it their statement game, and we just have to suck it up and move on. 2-3 is not a bad record right now. Clements sucked. He had a flat out horrible game. McGee clearly has had something taken away in his return game by playing corner full time. Really lacked spark and imagination. Also - the kick return unit had a really poor game. The wedge of 2 different occasions ended up with 4 guys blocking 1. It didn't matter what happened after the 'fake punt'... We handed Chicago the momentum too early in the game. Moorman is a master field position guy, use him early, pin them deep and suck it up. The D looked good the first half, I don't know why you force them into bad situations. We need Spikes back healthy. Gandy was flat out abysmal. His footwork on one sack was non-existant. The rest of the OL did OK. JP had time, but the WRs were covered. JP - despite the 3 INTs was not as bad as he might have seemed. The playcalling was weird at times, and his execution on the INTs left a lot to be desired, but I was not at all annoyed with him. In a game where the whole team wet the bed, JP had a typical 'growing pains' game. I like what I see - the guy has talent and it's just a hairs breadth away from fully being realised. Did we have any WRs on the field? I love to watch Rex Grossman play - a definate future star. That Chicago D looks like ours of a few years ago. very nice. Despite the beating they gave us, I actually enjoyed watching them play.
