Bills 17, Dolphins 14

Some will say that the Bills lose when we want them to win (as in the first 8 games of the season), and win when they want them to lose (once the season is lost and the draft order is being determined). I, on the other hand, always want them to win so I was happy to hear on my car radio on the way home from Muskoka that they won their 4th game of the season.

The Patriots come to Orchard Park on Boxing Day. It would be nice to finally beat them for the first time in 15 games (dating back to Opening Day 2003 - the Gregg Williams coached Bills with Takeo Spikes making an interception and Drew Bledsoe lighting it up with Eric Moulds as they won 31-0......then the last game of that season, in which New England won their second Superbowl, The Bills travelled to Foxborough and, in perfect symetry, lost 31-0 and finished 5-11).

Lots of snow at the cottage now. The skiing is excellent but the lakes still have plenty of slush under the snow in places. I've been out 10 times now this season. Winter starts Tuesday.

I'll be brining a turkey starting Tuesday then cooking it Saturday. Family and friends will be headed to our condo looking for brined turkey as I've been talking up the whole brining thing. It's all about managing expectations.

Wishing everyone (Mark, I guess I really just mean you) the Merriest possible Christmas and so on and so forth. Go Bills!
