Re: The Weather

52 degrees? Weird. 60+ mph winds tonight. Weirder still. Did you get a chinook? Kind of an anti-chinook as the wind is blowing the warm weather away. Tomorrow is garbage day, and the geniuses (and old farts) on my street didn't anticipate that 609 mph winds would blow over their garbage bins. It lo...

Re: NFL 2014 Week 12

The last play the Browns ran before the FG was a bit risky. An 11 yard pass down the middle with 16 seconds left. They had to rush up to the line to spike it with 4 seconds left. But yeah that entire drive was passes up the middle cause they had 3 timeouts left. Smith once went for it on 4th down o...

9-3 and rolling into the playoffs.

Replaced Bradshaw with Latavius Murray - RBs are Morris, Ellington, Murray, Fred Jackson and his backup Bryce Brown.

WRs are Maclin, Kelvin Benjamin, DeAndre Hopkins and Ruben Randle (blech!) and Martavis Bryant.

Peyton at QB, just might be enough...

The Bills-Jets game will definitely not be in Buffalo.

Most likely Detroit on Monday night (as per Barfallo radio).

Now, they are worried that the following Sunday's home game against the Browns will not be played at the Ralph. Maybe they will play it here in Toronto?
