    I think that it is. I'm 2,500 miles away and try to explain garbo plates to these Californians...they don't get it. I always try and tell them that their pizza here is just bread, sauce, and cheese warmed up. I've been depressed after some slices here.

    Was reading he wasn't drafted b/c he's short and a tweener. Doesn't really fit the ideal mold of any particular position.

    But they also said London Fletcher could of used an extra inch or two. And he had quite a nice career.

    I've been reading the same thing too. Regardless of size, this kid makes plays. I'm hoping he catches on here

    Nick Tahou's is open. I was just there last year, but they limited their hours now. It used to be a Saturday night after party place to eat when I was in college. Now they close on weekends and like 6pm on weekdays.

    He'd be the sweet movable "safety/lb" I was dreaming of in Cravens...

    Jack Lambert was too small to play linebacker too.

    He has a real chance. Anyone that productive at a big time program should be given a shot. Plus, it looks like Oklahoma moved him all around. That type of versatility and backing up in multiple positions and being available for different packages is pretty valuable. Should be considered for ST right off the bat.

    I thought the same thing, but Lambert was a little light in the ass for those days. His length made up for his alleged lack of weight.

    Whole different game back then. No 300 pound linemen in the 70s. On paper Striker reminds me of Corey Moore. Great pass rusher, just to small for the NFL. I hope the Bills find a spot for him. Put him at safety and blitz him.

    The "bleu cheese vs Ranch debate" isn't a debate. Ranch is wrong.

    The only people in WNY putting Ranch on their wings are fat Southern tourists at a Niagara Falls Denny's.

    I haven't lived in buffalo in over two decades, i've lived in a number of places across the country and done a lot of traveling. My first warning about whether or not i'll like the wings someplace is if they even OFFER bleu cheese. No bleu cheese, not touching the wings. (the 2nd question is "are your wings baked or fried, not fried, not touching them, then of course is the breaded or not question. Though i've gotten less militant about this answer ever since I ran across an insanely good breaded wing in phoenix arizona of all places, I still don't trust breaded wings, but i'll give them a shot if they're vouched for)

    I've had good breaded wings with BBQ or Asian type sauces. The trick is to eat them right away or add the sauce as you go so they don't get soggy. I've never had a good breaded wing with Buffalo hot sauce.
