Please don't take my response as apologizing for the Bills; I just think that data is at least someone a competitive advantage. As for the policy, I couldn't care less if the Bills end up 7-9 instead of 8-8 this year because of it.

You don't think "The Bills spent all morning working on an end-around from the I formation" isn't helpful information for other teams?

Now you're just fishing for complements. :)

Agreed, that seems to be the uniform for interview and first day unless otherwise directed. Women can dispense with the tie, unless you're Paula Poundstone.

Sage gin and Fever Tree Tonic makes a mighty fine Gin and Tonic. I might have to stop at Wegmans on the way home to get some tonic now. http://www.artintheage.com/our-spirits/sage/

I haven't seen any of those "Cthulu: why vote for the lesser evil?" stickers this year. I think that says something.

Maybe they're mad?

There could be a grain of truth in there, but it'd be more likely that it'll be rule changes to protect the players that fans will hate.

I'm amused there's at least one poster here with a semi-nude woman as an avatar and no one is complaining.

Good point. Have you considered a telegram? Tweeting at them? :)

Garth Snow?

Maybe just a smaller yard.

You kinda joke, but the entrance I use to work is a big glass wall and there's a dead bird on the sidewalk at least once a month.

I think I've used that before, but it could have been subconsciously after whatever dust-up a few years ago you're talking about.

After taking my bike to a track, I fully know the limits on the street are of my own making, not the bike; even with my pretty sedate R1150R. There's no way I'd corner on the street the way I do on the track.

I'm going around in circles about this; Van-dor the Unstoppable has run-flats, but I've heard the horror-stories about tires shredding after going flat and/or wearing out before you can get to a shop that has the right tire and size for your car if you're on a trip. Plus being AWD, it's not always advisable to throw a new tire on with 3 half-worn tires. I keep a can of fix-a-flat in the van so I can spray and inflate if I have one go flat. If it was just me, I'd consider running normal tires and keeping a patch-kit in the car but I'm can't recommend that to my wife in good conscience in case there's a flat that's worse than a patch kit can handle. Some people get an extra rim keep a spare; that has merit too. Another tire-related complaint (sort of): I was out on the fun roads on my bike last weekend and had a pretty good slip on gravel. The bike righted itself and I kept going, but it's by-far the closest I've come to crashing. I did all the wrong things, my foot came off the peg and the heel hit (but thankfully slid and didn't break) and I (think) I chopped the throttle. I need to work on my panic respnse. That was gravel, but the whole day the bike didn't feel very planted. I'm not sure if the somewhat-oddly worn front tire is the issue or it's me being rusty for riding those kinds of roads. The worst part is the big slip happened right at the start of my favorite two roads and it put a big dent in the experience.

If I were buying a bike today, it'd probably end up being some sort of adv. I do a little too much gravel and dirt for my street bike's own good. This isn't Fontana, but it's not far away from it!

Yeah, the internet generation; those 80s corporate raiders. I'm not going to let you pin "get rich quick" on Gen X and later, man! :) "The former secretary of State also holds commanding leads Trump among blacks, 90 to 7 percent, and Hispanics, 62 to 23 percent." http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/presidential-races/fox-news-poll-bernie-sanders-donald-trump-hillary-clinton I don't have Obama's numbers handy, but I can't imagine them being that much better.

Why do you think hard lefties would be pro-Clinton? If anything, it'll be the moderate Democrats (DINO, if you like a loaded term).

I've been on a kick for the last few months, with varying definitions of "j". I haven't found a J that just plain didn't work, but some are better than others: - Lingonberry Jelly (from Ikea) - Hot Pepper Jelly from Wegmans - Orange Marmalade - McKay's Ginger Preserves (this is good, and not that sweet) - Mango Habanero Jelly (ok, but it doesn't hold up enough to the PB for some reason) RosePie is on a kick too, currently she likes the lingonberry. I just bought some Key Lime marmalade to try next.

If you're a pessimist, unless green energy takes off, having a military is going to be more and more critical until the oil dries up.

The exhaust doesn't look right for a BMW (it'd be an F800, I think). It looks adventure-y though; maybe an SV1000 (err, I meant V-strom) or the Ducati adv bike.

Absolutely. Also, I think it takes way more than a 2nd and the 3rd to jump from 8 to 4.

For the first at least, 15% prefer "another" between Trump and Clinton. I don't think it's a stretch to say those are Bernie fans; the question is whether those people would vote for Clinton or not come the general election. I can't see many of them voting for Trump.
