Was going to bitch about the cold here, but then I heard about what's going on in Buffalo: http://www.buffalonews.com/city-region/winter/limited-driving-ban-imposed-in-erie-county-some-drifts-7-feet-high-20141118 Three feet on the ground and heavy snow for another 24-36 hours.

Renee Fleming - Crushed the Star-Spangled Banner at the last Super Bowl.
Tim Redding - crappy MLB pitcher
Ted Hoff - invented the microprocessor at Intel.

I don't want to get snobby, but I can't deny I'm a snob. Honeycrisps are great, SweeTangos are great. I've eaten both right off the tree, out of storage, at their peak, past their peak, whatever. I think a Honeycrisp is sweeter and a SweeTango has that tart undertone that a HC lacks. I can't knock a...

The Sabres gave up 52 shots to the Oilers. THE OILERS! Do the Sabres' sticks even have blades? They've got maybe 10 no-question NHL players, two of whom are goalies. Three forwards I can envision with roles on a good Sabre team. As short of talent as they are, I'm really starting to think Ted Nolan...

Your sacrifice will not go unnoticed.

If you want to be a pretentious douche, then eat a SweeTango. ** It's obvious the Honeycrisp apple is the apple of the working man. ** Does not apply to Diamond personally. Good find, Sabes. I had a post about missing the point of the article, but who gives a shit. I'm just glad you guys like apple...

The wrongness, it's almost like you haven't even tried them.

I was feeling great after hitting Providence for one. Leaned right into that fencing haymaker. Great game. I think we had four or five same answers.

Fingers crossed.

My stash is getting a little low.

Why bother Googling your answers on a bye week, right?

Best game I have had in the NFL Swampcrash Era, and I had to play Diamond. I actually led the entire way through the non-sports, then promptly get the first sports question wrong. Good game Diamond and thanks Ryan. Thanks, good game to you. I take great pleasure in any win over the Jets. My irratio...

Diamond is 48-6 all-time

That's great and all, but I think the refs are giving me the benefit of the doubt. You had me down for Wladimir but I emailed Vitali. At least that'll make it really close with Trav, if not give him the win.

Holy crap, DC, great game. I hope you used all the Detroit sporting mojo for today.

I guess they can't bring their own cushions in? Apparently, seat cushions had been banned (for security reasons?!) but the league will now allow fans in Buffalo to carry in Seat cushions smaller than 15”x15” that do not contain metal arms and/or backs, zippers, pockets or flaps. We bought new ones ...

How many people have you guys had using one account? I share mine with two friends.

Ever get busted/messages for too many users?

The wife lets her best friend use our Netflix, then got all pissed when she couldn't watch due to "too many users at one time"

I'm not loving the circus atmosphere of the Sabres' weekend tire fire, but I'll be damned if I could figure out what LaFontaine was going to do as President of Hockey Operations after he hired the GM. I don't buy the story about wanting to go back to NYC. The upper-level machinations seem to stay be...

I'm just happy to be here, just gonna do whatever I can to help the team win. My strategy is to take it one question at a time.

I'm psyched to see Swampcrash again. I'm happy to spectate but if you need any more I'd love to play. If it is a matter of fitting you into one of 28, you can have my spot if you want it.

It's funny comparing their draft grades with their matchup scores. I don't think they liked mine, I had to autodraft so I excluded all kickers, got the lowest grade. After you finish your draft, Yahoo has a "Draft Analyzer" you can pick, that assesses your picks. Kind of bs, because the co...

He's 32. He's had six years to rewrite his defining moment. But yeah, Romo could definitely be worse, and their GM sucks, so they probably had to pay him. Right. The issue is who do you replace him with. If you assume that Romo is at worst league average (and I'd argue he's closer to about 8th-12th...
