One day to go. Waiting to hear a trade announcement any time now. And with the second (or first or fourth or fifth) selection of the NFL draft the Buffalo Bills select Quarterback _________ _________.

Grouse - love that sound!

I agree. The 3 years in Buf was pretty lackluster. Plus after every hit I was cringing and almost expecting an injury. He needed a fresh start. Hope his third team is the charm.

I'd actually like to see him do that. He seems like a generally good kid with some good raw skills. He's got to hook on as somebody's speedy outside guy. But after three ho-hum years with the team that drafted him, and not winning at least a second year with the team that traded for him, well, those are long odds.

In the old days maybe, if that long snapper was best player available. I don't see McBeane doing this. But you never know, this is their first draft.

Scenario; I walk out of my house to hunt a deer. On my way out back to the stand, I see a legal deer at the back of one of the fields at 400 yds. I drop the deer (not really - I've never taken a 400 yd shot at a deer, but you get the idea). I recover said deer and bring it home. Veni vidi vici.

Really hoping they trade up to get their guy otherwise why did we pass on Watson and Mahomes last year? Been a Bills fan for over 50 years and I'm not getting any younger. McCarron? Meh.

Lol, not sure that's a forum though, is it?

Great pics!!

I remember reading about this back then - wow! How does that guy face people? What a tool.

Hope this guy leads the charge!

Promise?

It's our communist Governor. Can we send him to you? We would even include money. Do what you will with him.

I just checked the DEC regs, and there appears to be a loophole; If you glue the leaves back onto the branches, you'll be good to go!

Monday night in Buffalo! But against the Pats. Eh.

Not sure she's a blind type of girl. She looks pretty good with the run and gun style..

Jumping back in to this thread because my conscience is really bothering me. I've been hiding this for quite some time and after reading all of this, I think it's finally time to relieve myself of this burden and get this off my chest. It's very hard for me to admit this, but here goes; So last winter I was ice fishing on Irondequoit Bay up in Rochester (my old stomping grounds). I had a few tip-ups set for northerns, and was in my clam jigging for perch. Had a good day for the perch, and caught one 35" northern. All seemed well, but when I got home I realized to my horror what I had done. I had miscounted my perch and discovered I had 51 in my bucket -51! I was starting to feel the heat rising up my neck as the shame set in. I came to the awful realization that I was now a poacher as there was no way else I could be considered anything but. It was true, I poached that 51st perch. I could have recounted and stopped at 50, but I didn't. I completely disregarded the game laws and said screw it. I shamefully yanked that defenseless and innocent perch through the hole and threw it in my bucket. I didn't even show it any mercy by killing it, I just let it gasp it's final breath in the bucket as I casually and selfishly thought of only myself and my dinner that night. Now, before anyone posts a aerial photo of my house, I'll do it myself. Once I realized I was nothing more than a lowlife poacher of perches, I called the DEC on myself. They actually blew it off! Told me thanks, but don't worry about it. I just couldn't live with that outcome as I was now only a lousy poacher with no other obvious redeeming qualities. I won't be moving in until tomorrow night, but here's my new place. Let me know if I should add GPS coordinates. There, I feel better.

And please don't ever change that. All in all, I think it works just fine!

Love the split brow tine and the open mouth pose on the other one. Great looking bucks!

I had to look up when I joined and was surprised to see it was way back in 2010 as well. I guess I didn't realize the board was new at the time. I lurked for a while and started contributing more just in the last couple of years. Folks don't always agree and things can go sideways once in a while just like it does in life. But all in all, I think this is a great group of people. I've met a couple of folks through buying some things and would love to attend a get together to meet a few more of you face to face. Especially if we can arrange something either near the southern tier or within an hour or so drive. I'd be pretty disappointed to see this site go away!

Savage.

Soon the posts will get back to hunting instead of that nonsense. It's been a looong cabin fever season - Spring turkey season can't get here fast enough!
