  lol...  Yeah, I guess you would, at that.  Thing is, I've been a dedicated
fan since back when the Bills REALLY sucked, in the Ferguson years.  The
coaching/administrative crap since Marv Levy retired, though, is just
unbelievable.

  *nods*  Familiar with that, too.  Well, the Bills switched their starting
quarterback this week and ended-up winning.  Still hardly paints them as a
playoff-calibre team, particularly since the Dolphins were still technically in
the game right up until the 4th ran out, after the Bills started the game out
by cruising up to a 17:0 lead.

  They looked good, but not great.  I guess it could be a decent season after
all, but I still don't think they've any call for considering themselves a
playoff-calibre team yet.  (Hopeful...  But not convinced.  Certainly not on
the strength of one game with a quarterback the opposing team had to adjust to
on-the-fly.  Considering the 2nd-half comeback, Miami may just have pulled the
win off if the QB switch hadn't been made.)

  Yeah, thanks, but the Bears just aren't what they used to be, either.  I DO
tend to keep an ear out for all things Jax, so it wouldn't be much of a shift
for me, really.

  There's always Green Bay, too...  What was it?  52:3 over NO today?  Wow.
