What a stupid hiring.
Do the Bills not know that this guy is going to be round up and deported to Mexico soon to pay for the wall?

Not understanding the swiper dig. But that avatar sort of scared me.
I can't do anything with other user's avatars, otherwise I would be glad to help out. As I've said before, I'm a mod not an admin, so my abilities are pretty much restricted to merging threads and laughing at you behind your back with the other mods in our private forum.

You recently said that my avatar was downsized to reflect the size of my tool, remember? You can get randomly nasty, you know...
"Halloween" scared the **** out me as a youngster. Watched it when my age was in the single-digits somewhere. The first time I was left alone in the house, I was so paranoid that Michael Myers was out to get me, that I had to leave and take a walk, which didn't exactly help. We had those same tall cabinets in our house that Michael popped out of only to impale Bob to the wall with a butcher knife. Popped out of that one time on my brother and scared the hell out him...I think he deserved it still.
Halloween is the best guy-after-you movie ever made IMO. It's the atmosphere and the ominous music as much as anything.

Did you see the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre ? Nothing against Myers, agree with you, and "Texas" was more of a "they're-after-you" movie, but leatherface dancing around the road like a maniac with the chainsaw at the end was one of the most gleefully chilling things I remember in a horror movie. When I started posting years ago at the Range, I almost went with a leatherface avatar and a different name.

Yeah, that one got me too as a youngster. All dirty, gritty, terrible, and merciless. Halloween trumped that for me, though.
Hell, I went to see Jaws at the theater when I was five years old. I can still remember sitting Indian-style on my seat, just in case Jaws was around to bite my legs off.
Crazy seeing these kind of movies when you are so young.
Same though a bit older. I'd never go swimming in the sea again and felt concerned taking a bath, eyeing the drain warily because who knows what's under there...could be enough space for 100 feet of water and a hungry monster shark, how would I know ?
For me though, I saw some old junk movie called "the Screaming Skull" when I was a little kid on Fright Night (had to stay up for it). Honestly looks silly when I see it now, the sfx were terrible. But I was traumatized, I mean what do you do if a screaming skull is shrieking and chasing you through everything ? You can easily outrun Frankenstein or the Mummy if you go outside quick, Dracula only chases girls, and tossing the Wolfman a pork chop can buy you some time, but holy geez, a screaming skull screaming at you and chasing you !!!
Occurred to me a couple years later, well, that's where you use the baseball bat to knock it over to a neighbors house, especially ones you don't like anyway because they keep your toys that go over the fence and won't give them back. I mean what's it going to do when it catches you besides keep hollering and try to nip at you. So I wore gloves a couple years until I was sure I could hit a screaming skull to next door as well as the cheap softballs I could keep banging off their awnings. Go ahead, keep that one too, I have plenty, this one here is waiting for you to go back inside.....

Halloween is still my favorite horror flick of all time, by a large margin.
I first saw Texas Chainsaw Massacre at a midnight showing on campus in college, what a great experience. A lot of the others in attendance had already seen it (most likely a few times) and turned the show into an 'audience participation' performance a la Rocky Horror. Good times.

Heh...pundit feels McCoy could be a cut:
On the bubble: 30 AFC players who could be released

"Potential surprise names:
3) LeSean McCoy, RB, Buffalo Bills (and possibly other high-priced teammates): This would admittedly be a stunning move, but bear with my logic.
McCoy is a very awkward fit in new coordinator Rick Dennison's one-cut running attack. The Bills could decide to risk letting McCoy go a year too early rather than hold on to him a year too long. If the team designates McCoy a post-June 1 cut, they get $6.25 million in cap room and -- more importantly -- save $6 million in cash to spend elsewhere. The Bills have a number of high-priced players who may no longer work with the new coaching staff. Tight end Charles Clay is paid like a superstar for role-player production, although his contract makes him difficult to cut. Defensive end Jerry Hughes and defensive tackle Kyle Williams are also questionable fits with new coach Sean McDermott. GM Doug Whaley may be loath to blow this team up because of the dead money involved, but there's a case to be made to start clearing the decks."

Well, as much as I hate to mention the idea, not if Pegula buys into it by following his Sabres concept. If at first you don't succeed by throwing money (Ryan, McCoy, Clay, Harvin, Bush) at it, tank it and start over relatively fresh.
I do not whatever like this idea, but it's a possibility.
