The Shanghai Eagle has a Busted Wing, But She Still Flies

I know y'all want a jersey update - I swear it's coming!!! I want to include pic's, and just haven't had time. A quick summary to get your imagination going....

Delivery Packaging: Can anybody say "who ordered the kilo of grade A chronic?"

Home jersey: yep, thats baby blue piping... close, but it just ain't right

Throwback: looks great, but why did they put that picture of a crapping bear on it?

Pitt: why did they use leftover sweatsocks for the sleeves?

Green Bay: hard to argue - just looks good...

and for the record, the jerseys are "Made to the exact spedifications of the NFL". yeah, i didn't misspell that by accident...

As one of our fellow followers of the Buffalo Bills Message Boards (The Stadium Wall) said...

"The biggest problem with Chinese jerseys is that 30 minutes after you get one, you're online ordering another one..."

So true, friends. So true.... Anybody want in? Call old man Hobo...

The moment of reckoning is coming

Do we post on the Peter's trade? Do we post on the Rhodes signing? Do we discuss that OBD is shopping Parrish or Kelsay? Hell no. What do we post on? The Jerseys are in the states, and a mere stones throw away from central PA. Yah, baby!!!

Oh, and for the record - i wanted more for the peters deal, but i'm happy with it. he wanted way to much cash, and philly was stupid to pay it.

Rhodes was a good signing, but they need to make it clear to the dude that he isn't our starter.

Parrish - fine if the deal is right, but don't give a guy with that talent up for a 5th. thats just stupid, and should cost Brandon his job if it happens.

Kelsay - make it happen, or restructure him for less money .

GO BILLS!!!

Initial reaction - once i get over being pissed at the only home night game of the year being in Toronto, and the fact that it's a division game, the schedule looks decent. But it's going to take me a long time to get over that fact...

What are the boyz up to?

I'm sure you're asking! All two of you who read this (hey there Natedogg - how ya doin?). there will be more to come, but here's the snapshot of what Hobo and Pohono are up to...

Hobo: just slapped down the credit card to buy 4 "authentic" jerseys from some dude in China. A T.O. throwback and a home Edwards for Hobo, a T.O. throwback and a home Poz for Pohono... A full report will come when (or should we say if) the merchandise arrives... lets hope it comes in good, since we convinced some other friends (suckers?) to get a couple of steelers jerseys and a packers jersey on our order. poor Hobo - really wished that they carried a Coy Wire jersey, but it wasn't to be.

Pohono: for some reason, has committed to carving his own pipe. two of them actually. one a "traditional" pipe, the other a genuine hand-carved homage to the Bills "charging buffalo" logo. yes, friends, i will be smoking out of a buffalo's a$$... don't ask me how i will do it, but i'm committed. Hobo placed a bet - that ensures that i will make it happen. but y'all will line up in Lot One to buy them from me when you see them!

Suhoski - poor dude just keeps working. missed the opportunity to keep some young chinese laborors employed, but i'm sure he'll get in on the next round when he sees the quality of my hand-stitched "Poz-ruzney" jersey...

anyway - keep checking back. one of these days, Hobo's bound to shock us all and make a post!
