  1. Buffalo Bills!!

    in Stateside

    Posted

    Oh well play offs looks unlikely after tonight.

     

    It was over when ...

    Jets safety Abram Elam sacked J.P. Losman, forcing a fumble at the Bills' 16. DE Shaun Ellis recovered the ball and rumbled into the end zone, giving the Jets a 4-point lead with 1:54 remaining in the game. Losman was intercepted by Darrelle Revis on the first play of the following drive and again by Kerry Rhodes on a last-second bomb.

    Playoffs are unlikely as of tonight??? Really??? You are telling me that the Bills had a chance to be in the playoffs at all?

    Maybe at the beginning of the season they had a chance, but after they dropped to 6 and 5 that was it. Listen, I like the bills in 09 minus Losman, but they were done alot earlier than this.

     

    Week 15 playoff scenarios

     

    NFC

    CLINCHED: New York Giants, NFC East; Arizona, NFC West

    ELIMINATED: Detroit, St. Louis, San Francisco, Seattle, Green Bay, New Orleans

     

    AFC

    CLINCHED: Tennessee, AFC South and first-round bye; Pittsburgh, AFC North and first-round bye

    ELIMINATED: Cincinnati, Cleveland, Houston, Jacksonville, Kansas City, Oakland, Buffalo

    That was nice of you to make Buffalo stand out. May the Pats loose the rest of the season. :cold:

    and yes, I am a Pats fan but somehow without our Pro bowl QB down we are 9 and 5. With a QB who has started less games than Trent Edwards amd JP Losman combined. And we have SIXTEEN players on the IR. I dont care what you say, that's depth , and the Bills don't have it.

     

    And passing the ball on 2 and 5, what a &*$ moron Dick Jauron is, the Jets have no timeouts, run ot the clock with Lynch!!!

     

    I mean, who called that play?? God help this team...remeber wide right???

     

    I think this team should definfitly be voted the most overrated team of 2008.

    Yep, there was a lot of cussing today at the office about that MORONIC move.

     

    They should have simply run the ball, run the clock down and punted on 4th down.

    I agree, running the ball should have been done and run the clock down. Oh well, I am looking forward to next year!!

  4. Why did you decide to marry outside your culture?

    Because I speak Chinese and my wife speaks English.

     

    I have a long time interest in Chinese culture, Chinese Medicine, Chinese martial arts, etc. Because I like the sense of humor of the Chinese ppl.

     

    Most of the American women I've met are one of the following:

     

    Gold diggers (only looking for someone with a certain salary range) Drinkers (their past time after work is to go drinking) Psycho Religious (go to church 6 times a week) Uncontrollable spenders (always fighting debt) Some other neurotic hangup.

    Nothing in common with me.

     

    Of course, you have to look out for some of these things on the Chinese side but for me it's much easier to find someone I'm compatible with in the Chinese culture than American.

     

    I often think of the movie "Dances with Wolves" when I think of myself and the Chinese culture.

    I think you, or anyone, can make your point without slamming our American sisters. Quite a few are Candle members.

     

    I am certain that American women can make an equal list of what might disgust them about American men. But, what would that serve?

     

    He clearly mentioned that "most of the American women he met" are "one" of the following. Not only do I share his specific situation but I do not think he was slamming all American women. It seems to me that he was just explaining his thoughts about the specific American women that he met.

    I would agree with you 100% :ph34r:

    Jeff,

    To me, she sounds like a gold digger. She does not even know you and asking for money? Don't fall into the trap. You only known each other for 2 weeks and she is telling you that she loves you? She doesn't. My wife never asked me for a penny, even if I offered. There are plenty of other women out there that are good. Maybe you could try other websites. You sound like a good man please be careful. :)

    Pats fan here, Buffalo fans need to realize the season is over with. Honestly, J.P Losman is your new QB now??

     

    I liked the Bills in the first 5 games, but after that it became obvious that there is no depth on that team at all. I like the defense but when 3 or 4 guys go down the whole team stinks...Please dont say they are going to the super bowl when they cant even beat anyone in their own division.

     

    And yes I am slightly biased being a pats fan but we have over seven guys down and we are 8 and 5. and we beat everyoen in our divsion.

     

    Realize the nightmare and stop dreaming!

    I can dream if I want!!! :unsure: I will never give up on my Bills!! There could be a chance yet. You are right about one thing, with J.P Loseman as the QB it will be a hard fight. I hope next year we can trade him.

    So... who'd the Bills lose to this week? :roller:

    Yep, looks like a shutdown with the 49ers though not a blowout, looks like defence was working well for both teams not alowing either team to get into scoring range, SF got 1 TD, Buf only got 1 field goal all game.

     

    Oh well, on to Toronto Canada for the first NFL regular season game in Canada at the Rogers Centre against the Dolphins. I wonder if the dome will be open or closed?

    Try this website for starters. http://www.sadoun.com

     

     

    I bought a Sonicview 360. Fairly user freindly. You will need whats called a "linear" lnb dish. Directv and dishnetwork are "circular" LNB dishes. they can not recieve the signal from other satellites.

     

     

     

     

     

    Thanks for the Info, but in my reading, it sounds like it only works for the computer. Does it work for the TV too?

     

    Thanks :D

    John - FTA = Free to Air. Usually means no cipher block on the video signal . If you have rabbit ears antenna for your tv, well, that, in it's basic form, is FTA.

     

    There are satellite receivers (No, Not DishNetwork, Not DirectTV) that are set up to receive FTA signals from the FTA broadcasters.

     

    IF you google 'FTA satellite' over at www.google.com - you'll see a ton o info.

     

    Warmest Regards...

    My wife said you can also apply for some of the teaching jobs in the city where your so lives( in most cases, it will be very easy). If you get one, they will issue you a job visa good for one or half year. Then you can go from there.

     

    Good luck

    My high school football team could beat Kansas City. Hell, the Kansas City Cheerleaders could beat Kansas City. Here's a hint Mr. Bills fan... beat a playoff bound team and then I'll listen! :D

     

    (This post is just in good fun with no insult intended)

    Bills = Superbowl!!!

    I can't wait! :D

    I got a FTA satellite system working this weekend. I have several options for channels of Chinese interest but, I am not sure what is spoken on them. I am almost certain CCTV will be mandarin. Some cahnnels are taiwan based though. Does anyone know if they speak mandarin in taiwan. It sounds a little different and I am not catching many words. I do not want to confuse myself listening to the wrong dialect than what Rosetta Stone teaches. :blink:

    Hi,

    I have a question, it is a little off topic but what is FTA Satellite? I would like to know more. :lol:

    Thanks
