  1. Aaaand here's my morning-after comment. Boy I was wrong. Pats didn't score 50 points.
  2. Welp, the Bills D showed up for the first half.... Queue 2nd half. And salute to Squirmin' Thurman. He was awesome.
  3. ESPN. What the HECK are you doing having APPLEBEES wings in BUFFALO???!!! Could not believe what I was watching. SMH....
  4. You'll be hearing from me on Tuesday AM.... Gonna be a humdinger of a game tonight. I predict the score goes over 50 points.........for the Pats. I'll be tuning in just to see how bad the beatdown is gonna be. Not even holding out *any* hope for a close game. But who knows? Nope. Not gonna happen.
  5. Agree with @Scott F, in your price range, lots of great options. Personally, I like 1000 size Shimano Stradics, above your $ range, tho. Daiwa is putting out some impressive reels these days like the BG.
  6. Congrats, man!
  7. Since it will take time to master the art of baitcasting, you have to ask yourself if you want to spend the time necessary to do so. I did and had a lot of success with BCs. But over time I simply felt that spinning was more useful to me in more situations. Sold off some of my casting gear and only have one BC reel with 2 rods that I use these days. The majority of the time I use spinning only. As others have said, use what you feel comfortable with.

  14. Dang!! That's one fat lady - a hearty congrats on the PB!!
  15. Welcome aboard! For the techniques you mention, realize St. Croix can be a tad stiffer than other brands. I would go with a M St. Croix in that case, as an XF will flex closer to the tip and the M will be a little bit more of the rod flexing. I use both M and ML for Ned rigs. A St. Croix MLXF would work very well with all the techniques, IMHO.
  16. Congrats! Nice catch!

  20. This sums up Bills fandom in the 2000s.
  21. It's a UCL injury, getting second opinion today. Most reports doubt it'll result in Tommy John surgery and they expect Allen to be out for a month or so. IMHO, Bills should probably sit him the rest of season and let Peterman or Anderson get beat up behind our offensive line. We could be in the running for another QB if so ... or, more likely, the McBeanie Boys will probably pick another D lineman and completely ignore the O-line. Again. I mean, Defense wins championships, right?
  22. We usually don't turn our heat on until December, at least. We like it "cold" in our upstairs, for sleeping reasons. Keep the temp around 68, in the summer, so if it drops, it's all good...until we have to wear layers to sleep.
