The arena experience in Buffalo sucks ass. It's horrible. But I think it goes way beyond the product on the ice. I attribute this is o two things; the first is that over the past three decades there have been a lot of blue collar jobs lost because of factory's/plants shutting down or moving. Combine that with taxes, weather and corrupt politics and you have a large amount of the blue collar population moving for greener/warmer pastures with better job opportunities. I think the second key factor is that "job guy" can't afford tickets anymore so you have "career guy" in the arena. "Job guy" and " career guy" are two distinctly different guys.

Were you the runner-up last year too? I must have the worst fantasy roster to ever play in a championship game. Ranked eighth in scoring in a ten team league and my only two decent players missed multiple weeks. It's crazy. I hope Cam goes down on the first play Huh... There was supposed to be an emoticon after that last one, I guess they don't come through when posting on an iPhone.

Pretty much sums up this league too, eh? Fun fact. Only Whiskey and Wildcard's teams have scored fewer points than mine. Fun fact number two. The other three playoff teams have scored over 250 points more than me.

Whiskey, fix your roster!

Not directed at any particular poster, but two things I'd like to briefly touch on... We were making progress in Iraq. Afghanistan was a lost cause, but we made significant progress in Iraq. We needed more time. We took civilian lives in Iraq, and that it tragic. Our presence over there prevented more murders than we were responsible for. That's a fact that many people don't know about, our more likely ignore when talking about it because it doesn't fit their agenda.

I don't want anything to do with a Sr QB who isn't a Captain. QBs have to be leaders, I think his lack of captaincy speaks volumes about him in that area.

This. It's exactly the same with me. Yes, I have preds gear too.

Classic... Welcome back.

Leicester? Seriously? LEICESTER?!?! WTF is going on here?

Very well stated. I appreciate you taking the high road, sometimes I can be an ass. No, I'm not against helping refugees.

I thought I did, but I'll be more blunt. It's easy to sacrifice Mericans for the greater good when they are random and hypothetical. It's not so easy when those Americans are YOUR Americans. Your full of sh!t, and sometimes you post just to see yourself post. Good post.

Mighty noble of you to offer up your family as sacrificial lambs to save the Syrians, easy to do when its hypothetical.

Is it worth your life? Would you eat a bullet? How about your mother? Would you sacrifice her? How about your child?

X - Spot on with your comments regarding Afghanistan. We will never make a significant impact over there due to the reasons you stated. Taro - 100% correct with your comments regarding Iraq. From 08-12 we had a significant positive impact in that country. We were making progress, and contrary to popular belief much of the populace wanted us there. We needed more time.

I love these Saturday afternoon games!

Even me? I'm stunned. What did you expect me to look like?

Too hard to wash my hair with the braids, they only lasted a couple weeks. Thanks Neo

First one is from my last deployment, second is when I was in Jamaica, third is most recent.

Juju, would you be interested in Forte?

Blue, Forte, Hill, Tate & Witten for Hyde, Sims, Robinson & Beckham?

Maybe. I can't believe my dumb ass forgot to sub Big Ben.

Not exactly, read the complaint.

Did you read the complaint?

No burger, I am so fooked

The U.S. Lead Scotland 13-6 at halftime in the Rugby World Cup if anyone is interested. It's on Universal Sports Network.
