QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 07:29 PM) How can you blame Jauron? He had his team in a position to win at NE and his kick returner screwed him. All he has to do is run out of the endzone and waste 6 seconds so that 2 minute warning is the same as the change of possession and the Bills only need a first down to win. Just a really bad play by the kick returner. You can only "Not blame the coach" so many years in a row.

And thus begin's Dick Jauron's final season as a head coach.

LOL on how the bills went down there. Wow. Classic.

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 07:04 PM) Bigger choke? Cincy or Buffalo? I got Bills. Cincy lost on fluke play. I go Cincy. Brady was going to win this anyway.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 06:58 PM) LOL. No. yeah, I didn't think so. I was starting to get freaked out there for a few.

QUOTE (aprec32 @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 06:38 PM) While I agree with what you are saying, this might mean Peavy is our 4th best pitcher. It may well. But...sometimes, a Cy Young winner is a Cy Young winner. KW's deal was a gamble, i think almost everyone will admit that at some level. You're taking the guy out of one of the best pitcher's parks in the junior varsity league and moving him to a hitter's park in a much stronger league. But on the other hand...he's got great stuff when healthy, he's won the pitching triple crown even on a bad team, he's pitched well away from Petco and the AL has only put up a .663 OPS against him in interleague play. So it's a gamble...but it's an educated one.

What happened to Chris Young/D.Young/Hermida/Francoeur

QUOTE (Whitewashed in '05 @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 06:35 PM) Revisiting the trade, I forget, did the sox hold on to Anderson over Young or did the DBacks only want Young? I do remember KW saying out of all the minor leaguers he's traded Young was probably going to end up biting him in the behind. I believe it was some of both. -
QUOTE (mr_genius @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 06:44 PM) There definitely is, without question. It was inevitable, as much of the 'news' media alienated half their audience, new media sources would cater to this discouraged audience. Which is of course why Liberals dominate the blogosphere. Because they were so thrilled with the news sources out there.
-
Wait a second, there's no way the Bills actually win this game is there?

QUOTE (mr_genius @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 06:36 PM) They would likely be laughed at. The Dems still have MSNBC, CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC news all strong pro-Democrat. Now, it may not be the far left wing radical screeching of MSNBC , but they are still pro-Democrat. I love how MSNBC runs what, 4 hours of Joe Scarborough in the morning and is therefore the left wing equivalent of Fox News. And they're strong Democrats...compared to where you're looking at things from.

QUOTE (knightni @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 05:11 PM) Freddy Garcia Different point. Your point is a guy can come back from injury. My point is that the NL is a hell of a lot weaker than the AL...guys who are dying in the AL are looking solid in the NL.

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 05:09 PM) I actually really liked Vista. Preferred it to XP. I'm onto 7 now though and it's pretty fantastic. I'm planning to update shortly. Is there any compatibility issues with any software you know of that I should worry about?

I need coffee filters.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 05:02 PM) Ron Turner is just not very good. Mannelly's explanation made sense. If there really are 12 guys on the field, you get a free shot at the conversion. But you better make damn well sure there's still 12 guys on the field. He waited until Wolfe was actually looking. That was the problem. He could have snapped it and just had Wolfe fumble it and it would have worked.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 04:51 PM) That wasn't exactly where I was going with that Rex, but I was going to say something along the lines of "Rush Limbaugh is a multi-millionaire and Ann Coulter has several best-selling books, and it isn't an accident." There is a very large corporate conservative media presence, dare I say it qualifies as MAINSTREAM in and of itself. Even then though, the rest of the media makes so much more of an effort to make sure conservatives are sampled. You aren't running in to Meet the Press/pick your show panels that are dominated by Democrats right now like you were with Republicans in 2001-2008, regardless of how big the majority is. John Kerry didn't get the kind of media face time that John McCain is getting as an opposition figure. And that extends throughout the rest of the 24 hour networks except for you know the Maddow and Olbermann shows.

Jose Contreras, Brad Penny, John Smoltz.

Btw, I have difficulty thinking of worse uniforms than those.

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 04:40 PM) Bills to AFC title game I figured when I saw you wrote that it would mean that the Pats were up like 21.

QUOTE (SoxFanForever @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 04:24 PM) Why didn't the Bears work more short and intermediate passes to Olsen and Forte last night? That really surprised me. If your QB is under heavy pressure, that's the classic technique to beat the Blitz and back people off.

So, those who have seen him, tell us more about that curve ball? It sounds like that pitch developing is the difference between him being a fringe #5 and a solid #3. -
QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 02:58 PM) I haven't had any problems with it, but I run on 4 GB That's what I'm on. It's clunky, every program is trying to back-stab another program, and it seems to treat me like a 5 year old.

I can totally see why everyone hated Vista. Wow.

Really NYT, you let the aluminum tubes stuff slide for years...and this is the fact-check you do give?
