Around SBN: Jim Irsay: We Can Make It Work With Peyton Manning

Profile Images

I  don't care if this is a stupid fanpost, there is an epidemic in this blog lately.  That epidemic goes by no profile picture-itis.  For some reason it really bothers me, so I would like to urge everyone that uses this site to make one.  And although it might compound on the stupidness of this post, if you are particularly proud of yours then share what it is in the comments.  Yes I am well aware we have done this before, but that was a loooong time ago, and I feel people have changed their picture since then.  So I guess the point of this post is to encourage everyone to get a picture because looking at the boring star is.....well boring.  Although I do have to say its better than the Tony Romo lookalike...

 

My picture is a very old Buffalo Logo from 1965-1969.  I thought it was really neat because it kind of shows why the Buffalo is charging..... And because no one else has it.....

Just another great fan opinion shared on the pages of BuffaloRumblings.com.

Honestly....

I believe talking football and about the Bills is more interesting than having to post an avatar. I wont be doing so. If that means I am no longer part of the “community” then so be it. Its funny you mention it being easy to find someone on here. I guess if you are a fan and follow BR then you know the people by their names on this site as I do. When talking football and this site I can’t tell you how many times I refer to Galliford, poz, K, MRW, etc. I dont need to say, “um, that guy with the 1960’s running Buffalo”, homer simpson, jim kelly, etc. I talk football, not avatar.

and its funny that you are implying im not a fan of BR or dont follow it by saying

I guess if you are a fan and follow BR then you know the people by their names on this site as I do.

seeing as we have belonged to this site for basically the same amount of time thats a weird thing to say. and im pretty sure many people know me on here as i know them. but there are new members everyday, and if im looking for kurupts opinion on something its far easier to look at the right of the page to find kelsay then scroll through and read every name….

You're right....

To each his own. I blog about football. If nobody wants to read what I write, which most don’t, I am fine with that. My comments were more generalized in the same respect yours are. I am not here to say someone has to have an avatar or doesn’t have to. My point is, do what you want. I read just about everyones comments on here because I find it interesting.
You can call me childish or hypocritical or whatever. Again, I’m not here to tell someone what to do. I am simply stating that I am not a fan of avatars and I shouldn’t, along with anyone else, be told to have an avatar which in fact you referenced in your post because that is really the reason for your post.
I am saying I am about football and reading the comments on this site and that is all. If you want to talk about other subjects, that’s great. I don’t condem that either. Do what you want. Me? I’m all football.

It’s funny to see you present an argument for not having an avatar. I have one, enjoy them, yet I turn them off for surfing at the office. No one is saying you NEED to have one, but if you truly dislike them, just turn the option off in your preferences.

I’m probably in the minority, but I’m not a fan of Parks and Rec. I miss My Name is Earl, but that show ran it’s course probably after the 4th season …

My avatar is just a couple of my cats who were mortal enemies in the house, but I caught them asleep with their heads next to each other. Lame and meh, I guess, but other than Ryan Miller, no Bill or Sabre (or UNC Basketball player for that matter) deserves to be an avatar right now.

This type of post is good to have every couple of months. Thanks silver. It’s a great chance for new Rumblers to comment without the fear of their opinion being ripped to shreds. (Most of the time…)

I had Cornelius Bennett, because, if you were old enough to remember, that was the addition that put the Bills over the top. The trade was huge, and rarely has a trade of such proportions gone down. Bills nation knew the SB was a real possibility.

I took this advantage to drop science on the blog. My avatar is the golden spiral, to represent cyclical progression (re: the Bills reclaiming dominance) and to represent mathematical beauty.

I have a great distaste for (rather a great deficiency with) mathematics that don’t include physics, but I LOVE the golden ratio. It’s long been used to show how what’s perceived in nature as perfect works under the rule subconsciously when the line is laid over top of the subject. Flowers are a great example, as is the vegetable Romanesco…galaxies, works of acclaimed art.

I nerd out on Fibonacci.

I love it when I am attracted to something, and later I figure out what got me. Often times it’s simple geometry like the use of thirds or a mathematical spiral. Never thought I would be reading about bioluminescence and geometry on Rumblings…

It’s a fact that what most people are attracted to, or where their eyes are drawn can all be traced back to Fibonacci.

It’s very powerful, and influences quite a bit of our life. Good merchandisers and advertisers have to give credit to Fibonacci.

Umm, that’s not a lump. The team really needs to address the uniform change.

I don’t mind the modern ones as merchandise, but they look really bad in full regalia. There’s way too much going on when you put it all together. If only the team had that much going on when on the field.

yeah golden ratio/golden rectangle!

architecture nerd here – definitely learned all about the golden rectangle in school. its found everywhere in nature, art, architecture – its the simplest “common denominator” proportion and (probably because of that) proven to be the most pleasing to our eye. our brains can make sense of it when we see it, without even knowing what we’re looking at. very cool.

After Nick’s death (a month from today will be one year exactly…..RIP Nick) The team took Nick’s jersey and hung it up in the dugout and in the locker room everyday of the season….someone always made sure to include it in all team activities.

Miss watching you out on the field Nick……….RIP.

Love the article, and I'll play along too.........

… agree that I am also sick of seeing Cowboy Stars on the site. Be a little creative people. If you don’t know how, your 10 year old kid can do it for you.
  I changed my logo from Lynch (since he is temporarily in my doghouse) to an American Hero!
  Sheriff Bufford Pusser! They (Hollywood style) based his life on the 1973 movie “Walking Tall,” not that crap that came out a few years ago. The adversity he overcame in a corrupt bordertown between TN and Mississipi is amazing. Wiki him to get interested, and then read the book. Unbelievable the abuse and pain this guy went through. Took a bunch of Army guys to his house/museum, met his daughter, Dwana, who is the county commissioner……. good times.

  Put it on Netflix folks. I had not seen the movie in YEARS, but watched it 10 months ago. Its still good. He was a bad-*ss.

  The Bills need to be Buford this year, Walk Tall, and overcome huge adversity. It CAN be done (coming from the eternal optimist.)
