  1. @430 ... 115 on Joisy
  2. I say the 400 or the 90 but when referring to some New York roads. But not all, as I say 17 for Route 17. However I don't use the word the for any Maryland roads. It would not sound right to me. The I-95 sounds awkward to me instead of 95 or I95.
  3. Well from my personal experience, I would say that early intervention is the key. My son is now 16. He is on the spectrum. No one can agree what to call it, but he is high functioning. We have aggressively worked to bring him along. Relatives who don't see him regularly tell us they can see the changes. He is in 9th grade and on diploma track. It is a daily struggle to get him to matriculate with others and maintain grades. It is the hardest thing I have done and have to do in my life. He is the number 1 item on my bucket list: to see him graduate with a diploma. He is my hero. We don't medicate our son. That stuff and its affects are scary. I would rather put up with the quirky behavior than have him under the affects of medication. The decision to medicate or not is a very difficult one and will depend on many factors including his behaviors and mannerisms. All the best.. It is a life long journey now. Feel free to PM me about specific questions. We have a world of experience with hospitals, doctors, testing, quacks, diets, medication, practices, teachers, adminstrators, lawyers, trusts, IEPs, and friends/family/siblings. All will have an impact in your future.
  4. I just knew someone was going to jump on that.
  5. two many times too is used like to :flirt:
  6. I am :thumbdown:
  7. @330.. 175 on Minny and yes Pomers scores in this one. Two goals, one for the Sabres snub and one for the Olympics snub
  8. One other take home. If Ryan Miller wants a job in Calgary, Burke would probably take him.
  9. long, but good read. They sure have a lot of love for Quick even though he has been injured.
  10. Z. Johnson, Pominville, Ryan and Byfuglien need not apply Defense looks weak.
  11. Staying alive, through all 40 games and 40 bets, @330
  12. Look on the bright side, only two more years until the new coach gets here.
  13. @230, 170 on jets
  14. Maybe... I have three things I judge EJ on: 1. Durability... 3 knee injuries. I don't accept the poor O-line excuse. Flacco in B-more got sacked more and he managed to stay upright all season (he was limited the last two games, but played).. EJ is a walking infirmary. Warning signs were there in the preseason. 2. Fitz-vision ... He can't see the play develop in enough time to pass downfield. He doesn't have the accuracy to trust his throws and his reads are not NFL level. My opinion. 3. "It" ... He doesn't have 'it'. What's 'it'? That intangible quality of a winner. The quality that believes he can complete a tight pass into coverage. I recognize this is purely subjective, but it is what I believe. I just don't see us elevating him to the QBs with 'it' like Mannings (2), Brady, Brees, or Rogers Give Thad a full season and see what happens. I don't believe Thad has 'it' either, but he has more of what it takes to be a QB then EJ. EJ is apparently one or two hits from an IR stint. You can't run a football team with a revolving door at QB. EJ in for two, out for three. I agree with those that say keep drafting QBs until you get one.
  15. There pretty much isn't anything the Bills don't need. My end of the year assessment is that: Kiko, Goodwyn and Woods were good draft picks. Do more of that. I'd like to see a true run stuffing DL, OLB and TE be high picks. They could also use a franchise OT. I would start Thad Lewis and never look back (at least for next year). I have really soured on EJ. I'm truly amazed Kiko did not get hurt this year. He might be the only true, blue chip football player on the team.
  16. @230.. two big bets, one on Sharks and one on Caps doomed me.
  17. 1950 on Capitals
  18. @2080 -- 165 on Leafs
  19. I say blinker. Not sure why.
  20. Funny thing about this bet, at 7:01 when I learned about the short bench I started to edit this post. I was going to bet big on Yotes. Then I decided it might look fishy to some with a late edit, so I let it ride. @2080 Not bad for betting everygame so far
  21. That was pretty cool.
  22. Should be interesting to see what Bills team shows up in NE next week. I literally can't remember the last time the Bills won in NE.
  23. :P That's clearly a no fly zone.
  24. That would make sense.
