The Bills drafted Aaron Maybin with their first round pick, a classic tweener destined to be a 3-4 rush LB. But now I dunno because I thought the Bills were a 3-4 team, but their website DC indicates otherwise ?

according to http://www.weather.com/outlook/recre...6hr_topnav_ski

should be exactly 19 mph on Sunday, 30 % chance of rain, and 47 degrees. It will likely change some by game time, but that is in the 10 day forcast

OK, very good. Well, that could be significant... They might have to dink and dunk more than usual if remains that way...

My Houston Chronicle says its supposed to be "sunny" in Houston today - here it is just after noon and I haven't seen the sun, yet...

I just heard Dreesen on the radio saying they were expecting it to be windyin Buffalo...he was discussing how the wind even affects a long snapper. Never heard a forecast, but you can just go ahead and pencil in a windy day in Buffalo this time of year.

Well, sounds like the team is preparing for a windy day and that is good.

I've heard "supposed" to be windy, "might be" windy and "you can pencil it in".

Maybe we'll get a performance like the one the legendary Tony Banks had in 2003 in relief of David Carr. Banks was 11/16 for 207 yards with 1 TD and 1 INT in a 12-10 Texan victory at Buffalo. Said Coach Dom Capers about Banks after the game:

"Tony Banks has been a starter in the past, and I'm sure he could start for a number of teams. We have total confidence in Tony Banks."

if the texans only score 12 points this week you can go ahead and chalk up a 4-4 record going into indy, because the defense is going to give up more points than that, and lee evans has made the texans defense his personal b*tch when he has played against them in the past.

Like the 2003 Texans, all I care about is a "W". I don't care how they do it.

...and if the Texans go into Indy at 4-4 then you can pretty much chalk up a 4-5 record.

According to weather channel, http://www.weather.com/outlook/recre...6hr_topnav_ski

they have increased rain from 30 to 50%

and decreased wind from 19 to 15 mph,

doesn't really sound like improving weather very much,


ok, just checked on Thursday morning at weather.com

it now has rain back to 30% and wind down to 10mph, so it is better than before, see how many more times they change the forcast before gametime.
