  1. Welcome aboard!
  2. Correct, OT possession was changed, but the coin flip I was referring to was the betting line being so close that it's a coin flip for the winner (solely based on the line).
  3. Gonna be a great game, hopefully. Lots of offense and stout defense. I do think the Eagles have the edge, but I would never count out the Chiefs. The line is close enough that it might as well be a coin flip. Ugh, coin flip. That brings back a 13 second nightmare.
  4. What a freakin' beast!
  5. There was at least one nutria living at Newport News Park, at least the area I was always fishing. Saw him numerous times, this was maybe 8 years ago. Wasn't sure then what I was seeing, but learned from park rangers it was a nutria. Wasn't aware (until the chat) that they were an invasive species, either. I imagine the critter(s) was trapped/killed as I never saw it again.

  10. I know Mahomes is a fierce competitor, but he may have done more damage playing on it than sitting out. But he got the W. I do think Joe Cool and the Bengals will pull off W #4 vs Chiefs. An interesting quote I read plays on the old Bengals negative nickname, the Bungles. "Bills Bungle vs Bengals" or something close to that. Definitely true. I knew after the first Bengals possession. Then their second. Bills didn't get a first down until the second quarter. Second. Quarter. Just awful performance. Guess all the happenings in Buffalo this past season really took an emotional toll. I thought it'd be fuel, apparently they were on fumes by the Bengals game....
  11. Just. Wow. Buffalo was bad on an epic scale today. Exposed in every phase of the game. Quite disappointed but also have been keenly aware of shortcomings all season. Today I believe our coaching was exposed in a big way. Frazier has been hit-or-miss as DC. Today was the worst possible miss. OC Dorsey? Gosh I miss Daboll today. He was the Josh whisperer so it seems. And McDermott. His scheme has been exposed, too. Not to be a Debbie Downer, but I feel the Bills need to do some massive soul searching and make some big changes at the coaching level. Shore up the D and O lines and give Josh another weapon that is Diggs' equal. Hard for Josh to do anything with an O line that lets everyone through from a super solid team like the Bengals. Go Bengals. I hope they beat the Chiefs and get the ring they lost last year. Go Joe Scheisty.
  12. Well, any given Sunday, I guess. I was not aware of the odds, though. Sad but true. Would be a nice upset, though, Jags, that is .
  13. Local ESPN radio here mentioned something - I think it was either a tweet, or another ESPN personality said it, the 9ers v Cowboys will come down to whether Bosa or Parsons has the better game getting to the QB. I have a hard time seeing Cowboys coming out as victors, but any given day... Would love to see Jags beat the Chiefs and Bills beat Bengals to have a Josh vs. Trevor showdown in Buffalo. A Northeast SB would be great - that would be either Buffalo vs. Eagles or Giants.

  16. Well, a defibrillator was almost needed for the Bills/Phins game. I mean come on, Bills. I know division games are not always a gimme, especially with the Phins. They're dangerous with two of the fastest WRs on the planet. Buffalo almost beat themselves. Play like that against Cincy and they will. No idea how next week plays out. Cowboys should be a bit ... wary of the 9ers. Even with Mr. Irrelevant, they are a crazy tough out. Bills/Cincy is a crap shoot. I won't count the Jags out, nor the Giants.
  17. Speed clips are not that difficult (IMO) if you don't squeeze them. Just slip them on sideways, work the clip open over the eye and you're good.
  18. Conference games are a dice throw, IMO. But I did expect the Bills to easily beat a rook QB. But Fins came prepared, and hit the Bills in the mouth toward end of first half. Shook the boys up good. Bottom line, Bills gotta play MUCH better with who's to come. Hopefully they will. I can't stand this much longer w/o needing to order a defibrillator for the house. I mean, come on!
  19. Yeah, I thought 'Hawks were gonna stay in it during first half. But dang. Oh well. 9'ers scary with Mr. Irrelevant. He has a great team around him. So FWIW. Go BIlls!
  20. Super happy with the Bills win, but concerned with our 1st half performance. Granted the opening kickoff return was electric, and the second return from Hines. But plenty to be concerned about, still, heading into the post season. Wish Hyde and Miller were back. Bring on the Phins! Squish the Aquatic Mammals! Man that sounds awful. Just Squish the Fish! GO BILLS!
  21. Welcome aboard, Pat!
  22. Has anyone tried the new drops that "replace" reading glasses? Interesting to me, but not for $80/month, which is what I last saw them at.
  23. I wear readers today, can barely can't thread a hook w/o em. By the time I was 13 I was wearing glasses. Into my later teens and 20s contacts. W/o glasses, I navigated with sound, LOL, like a bat. FFW to about 26 years old, wife's father passed and left us some money, and we decided I would get RK (Radial Keratotomy), before laser was available. 20-20 and 20-15 depending on the day from there until I hit my mid-late 40s, when readers began being needed. I'd do RK or lasik any and every day of the week. Soooo nice to have.

  25. This analysis has been making the rounds. If this is what happened, this is a very good explanation/visual.
