As an American in this country no one can be forced to stand for the flag in a respectful manner. Each person can do what ever the hell they want to. For me and my family we will stand, we will stay quiet or sing the words to the anthem and our hats will be off as we demonstrate reverence for this great land in which we live. If people want to sit, kneel, talk, or wear their hats during this time then so be it. Do I think they are idiots, yes! Do I think they are attention seekers, yes! Will I poke my buddy next to me after the anthem is over and say "look at those SOB's, yes!, but in the end they could do whatever they want. It is kind of like half the stadium that decides to get hammered beyond belief before they walk in to the stadium and then end up in fights, or they puke behind your seat, or they constantly bump in to you because they can't stand, or they get a DWI when they go home. I'm not their daddy. I can't tell them what to do and this is a free country. If you want to be an a$$hol# then be one. I may not like it but do your thing. I may not like you; I may not care to talk with you; and if I was an owner I may not have you on my team... But do your thing! You have the freedom to do what you please. Hell that is what this world has come to, everyone just doing their own thing, no unity, and no peace. Anyways, GO BILLS!

flomoe, I will get back with you in a few weeks tops and let you know why this isn't a dumb post at all. It is not about me letting something go; just posed a question. You may not know as much as you think you do.

I asked a question. I did mention his strengths I liked. There is a reason for this post and I will do a follow up in the coming days.

Do you think it is possible that Brandon Spikes could draw some interest from the Bills? I know he wasn't known to be a great cover guy but I always liked his leadership and toughness. He didn't seem to fit in with Rex's team but he is a FA and I'm sure he could still ball better than some of the guys we have on our roster.

Here is a link about the tailgating party that starts at 6am at Tavern on the Tracks. https://www.facebook.com/events/141131246456081/ Hope to see you at the party on that Saturday as well. It's going to be a great time.

I'm shocked Groy is not at guard, play your top 5. If Groy gets hurt then pick up a back up center.

I did the same thing. They offered the NFL package for free and a huge overall discount for programming. I got the Firestick and will watch games through the stream.

I like McDermott but when he says it is all about respecting one another then please respect the people who laid their lives down for this country and please respect the flag. When people sit down or raise their hands or in any way draw attention to themselves then they are being disrespectful and McDermott needs to get a pair and tell those idiots that.

I guess if you are a GM who likes to pay star money for guys who can't stay healthy and are afraid to tackle.

I agree 100%. Also with Streater getting hurt...

Day 1 starters (Watkins, Jones, Holmes) few weeks later (Matthews, Jones, Boldin) few days later (Matthews, Jones, Holmes) Who will it be next week? Tyrod must be building some great chemistry, hell Matthews may not take a practice snap, Streater hurt, Boldin quits, Watkins traded; only in Buffalo, only in Buffalo. I don't think in his 3 years Tyrod has ever been able to work with his starters during training camp and the pre season. Then we expect the offense to roll game 1.

Games are all online for free

I think McDermott has been pretty transparent. The team wants to win now but get better going in to the future. Coach McDermott said they talked about it for hours. If Beane didn't need or desire his approval then there would have been no discussion before pulling the trigger. If the odds were they didn't want to sign Sammy long term then I'm confident they put feelers out for Sammy to see what they could get. Coach McDermott and Bean I'm sure discussed what they plan on doing with every guy on the roster; they probably discussed J.Hughes, K. Williams, L. Mccoy,and E. Woods to name a few other players. I doubt there is no plan in place and our coach seems very organized.

We are expecting a big crowd. This should be one hell of a party. We will raffle off a few jerseys and run a 50/50.

Over 117 people already interested in joining our Bills pre tailgate party the night before the Bills visit the Panthers on September 16. If you are coming down and looking for a place to stay here is some information for you. https://www.facebook.com/events/301136066978008/permalink/312246765866938/

Preston Brown and Cardale Jones

I think were gonna have a buffet set up so there is no waiting around to eat.

I am not sure where you get your information from about him not trying hard. He gets caught up in dumb things outside of football but I never heard the coaches say he was out of shape, overweight or that he is not giving his best on the field. I could have missed something but I never heard those comments from anyone inside the Bills organization. He is laid back and chill when he talks but that's just his personality. Rex used to rave about the things Dareus did on the field "when he wasn't suspended that is".

I think Niagara Bills statements were also a little harsh but there is some truth to what he is saying. We have seen this act by Dareus a few times already and until he can prove himself over time with his actions "not interviews" I will not trust the fact that he doesn't find trouble again. He looks to be a great guy but getting in to trouble has a pattern with him for a long time. He doesn't seem like he is very mature and he doesn't make wise decisions. He kind of reminds me of the middle school kids I teach. They can't look past today, but choices today can influence your future. I hope he can get his act together and be a productive person both on and off the field. I think he has one shot left and if he messes up McDermott will find a way to get rid of him.

I wish he would just stay low profile. The last time he traveled the news circuit in his Gilligans hat he got himself suspended and looked like a fool.

Hindsight or not the question was who was the worst cut in Bills history. You can make a better judgement after seeing how well a player went on to succeed after he left Buffalo. I was always a Fletcher fan but I was amazed at how many years he played at such a high level. I guess you want people to say names like Gilmore instead of actually evaluating their years after they left Buffalo. HOLY CRAP! lol

Moments before the scuffle he was hanging with one of my friends from the Charlotte area. I have a picture but it says the file is too big.

Not sure if he was cut or just not re signed, but London Fletcher.
