Funny Post on Facebook
A Facebook friend posted this on The HERO's wall and it was too good not to share (even though -- Yes, I'll admit it -- I'm a Bills fan).
Orchard Park, NY -- Buffalo Bills practice was cancelled today due to an unknown white substance on the field.
Police and investigators were called in and after several minutes of testing they determined it to be the GOAL-LINE!!!!! But since most of the players had never seen it before, and probably won't see it again, it was determined that it poses no threat!!

NYS Threatens to Close Seneca Casinos
New York is threatening to shut down the Seneca Nation’s casinos because the tribe is withholding payments to the state, but Seneca Nation President Barry Snyder Sr. says in a news release that the state violated the gaming compact first.
The state says the Seneca Nation owes the state more than $200 million under an agreement requiring them to share slot revenues with New York. Last month, Seneca leaders voted withhold payments, saying the state violated the compact by allowing gaming in nearby racetracks.
Snyder adds that the compact also says the state can not terminate the compact unless an arbitration panel determines that there has been a breach.
