"My wife and I loved Buffalo; it was our favorite team and best experience out of the five I played for (Redskins, Cowboys, Browns, Patriots). I guess it depends on what the individual is looking for, but it was really a family atmosphere in which everyone was welcomed with open arms and everybody hung out with one another socially. Other teams were not always like that."

Behind the stats: QB completion percentage | National Football Post

see I just feel that’s all Americans’ duties. I’ve had relatives in WWII, Veitnam, Desert Storm and I’ve had 4 friends and 6 people I know in either Iraq or Afghanistan – all thank fully returned (1 still in Iraq).
The least we can do as Americans is support our troops. Especially those fighting in a foreign war. these people will always be welcome in J2’s house (with free drinks and food)

Peter King, whatever you think of him, is running a Five for FIghting campaign where people donate as little as five bucks and they get all these recreational supplies to the troops overseas. Here’s the link:
https://www.uso.org/donate/custom.aspx?id=1848&
Peter King and the USO have teamed up to bring this program to as many deployed units as possible, starting with Sgt. McGuire and his brave men. Let’s help them to enjoy some of the comforts we take for granted back home: gaming systems, DVD players, athletic equipment, snacks, furniture, and tons more.
You can't have CHANGE without CHAN.
