TB12
He retired. Again. Will this retirement stick? Maybe, maybe not. Maybe He’s retiring so he can just wait until the first week of August, after training camps are half over, and then sign wherever He feels like signing to keep … Continue reading
The “Greatest” Comeback???
From The West Wing, Season Three, “Stirred”: VICE-PRESIDENT HOYNES: I heard you had Caps tickets. SAM: Yes, sir. HOYNES: How was the game? SAM: Not very good. HOYNES: Have you ever seen a good hockey game? SAM: No. HOYNES: Me neither. … Continue reading
You will believe a man can fly.
I promise that even as the local football club, the Buffalo Bills, may possibly be enjoying their best season ever, I will not turn this blog into a place for frequent football-ish commentary. For one thing, I’m not watching the games … Continue reading

Unless you live in a cave–and a particularly deep, nasty cave with trolls and snakes and giant spiders and whatnot–you probably have heard that in 2020, the Buffalo Bills finally returned to the ranks of the Indisputably Good Teams, … Continue reading

Costa Del Terry! Pegulaville! Marina del Kim! Otisburg….Otisburg?!
Lots of football news of late. Not all of it is depressing, but quite a lot of it is. :: The most positive story is that, pending NFL approval, Terry and Kim Pegula are set to become the new owners … Continue reading
Football’s Return, and why it’s OK to be a bandwagon fan

Buckets, the Bills, Stadiums, Pies, Sharkheaded girls: Some random opinions on some random stuff
Just a grab-bag of some thoughts on stuff going on…. :: I posted the following on a Facebook exchange debating the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. This wasn’t really in response to anything anyone specifically said, but more in response to … Continue reading
