dEnnis the Menace

I was at the game, and have taken some time to think about it. 1) Tyrod had no time in the pocket. We needed to throw more screens, and take the short 5 - 6 yard passes in the middle that the Patsies were giving us. dink and dunk like them to open up the rest of the playbook. 1a) McCoy and Karlos Williams both looked pretty shifty and earned a lot of extra yards with their running styles. I love both of them! 2) the officiating was terrible both ways. It seemed absolutely ridiculous on some plays, and then there were the blatant penalties on both sides that went uncalled. I think the refs had more screen time than anyone else yesterday. 3) we needed this loss. I wanted a win so bad, but a loss like this puts us back in our place. We don't earn anything by whipping on an overrated Colts team. you earn it by working hard over the course of the season. Let the Patsies bring us back down a few notches, and humble us a little, and then it's on to Miami. Remember, NE got whipped around a few times at the beginning of last season. 4) It's only week two, and the AFC as a whole isn't looking too strong two weeks in. We definitely will be contending for a playoff spot come end of season. Leave this sour loss in our mouths, and come back at them later this year. Same thing happened to Rex in NY. Got beat down by the Pats only to turn around and beat them in Foxborough in the playoffs. I'll take that... 5) Hearing Aaron Williams is ok was a relief. He came down right in front of us, and it didn't look good there. 6) This team needs to get more disciplined 7) Our D-Line needs to step up. we couldn't get pressure quick enough, and it left our secondary out to dry. Our secondary is going to look like if we can't get pressure. 8) not an excuse, but the Pats did have an extra three days of prep time. 3 extra days for one of the best QBs to ever play the game to get the offensive scheme and gameplan studied does make a difference. 9) Miami just got beat by a Jekyll and Hyde Jags team. we better beat them!

That's amazing Jo!

Definitely try to convince them to excise it. I'm glad I did. more piece of mind with the doctor (Nurse Practitioner actually but still) that I know and trust. thanks and good luck to you as well.

Weave, I had a mole show up on my back earlier this summer, and had it on watch as well. I actually went to my PCP for the same reason: no one could get me in until months out. My primary care physician actually did the whole removal process in his office, and is sending it out to the hospital (Cayuga Medical Center in Ithaca) to get it biopsied. Maybe ask your PCP if he can do the removal? Best of luck to you! I know it can be nerve wracking.

according to WGR, the extra $$ is being donated directly to Jim Kelly's Hunter's Hope Foundation. Awesome! I'm going to the game Sunday with the whole family (my wife, sister and her boyfriend, and my mom (her 50th bday) and my stepdad). I haven't been this excited for a game in a long time.

good

I'm not looking to shabby this week. With all 3 of my teams looking like wins!

was reading some comments across a few message boards and forums and a lot of Colts fans are delirious! They were saying our defense is overrated and that they're going to fly to 30+ points. I couldn't help but chuckle.

very interesting

The fact that Pittsburgh, with the personnel they had, racked up 485 yards of offense, is very pleasing. Hopefully we can replicate and actually finish...

I haven't driven it in quite some time...is this in regards to the speed limit change?

yeah...me too <_<

mini-pack is a 5 game minimum as a past mini-pack holder

so sorry to hear that :(

Had to use my personal credit card to purchase my plane ticket and hotel for a business trip (corporate policy now). Did so, with the assumption that I would be paid back within a week, as I was/am worried that the $1,800 will be on my card when the billing cycle ends, meaning I get slapped with the interest. I was assured that the check would be in today. Guess what! no check! And Corporate policy is also to not reimburse for interest you accrue on your credit card. I'm so pissed. I didn't even want to go on this trip.

love it. It's a bold move cotton...

didn't see that one coming <_<

If anyone finds out if they added the upgrades to the 360 version of Madden, I may be buying that. I haven't seen any news one way or the other though.

That's awesome!

:lol: :lol:

projection: 5 - 9 playoffs: 20% chance overall grade: B

tomorrow :angel: j/k. yes 10pm tonight

I sure as hell hope so. Mike Rodak seems to not think so ("Whaley spent a fourth round pick, blah blah") but we just saw that a fourth round pick spent matters nothing with Ross Cockrell being released.

Thaat does make sense, however, I'd still keep whatever Freddy has over Bryce "butterfingers" Brown

please elaborate. I can't listen hear at work.
