Now, I've been a patient Jauron apologist so far, but I am just done. Finished. Kaput. Get the man out of there. Every single player on the Bills left his heart out on the field today and Jauron ripped the victory away with candy-ass play calling at the end (Schonert, you're gone too). Rian Lindell hasn't missed one from inside 40 since '06 and you're settling for a 47 yarder???? What's the risk in throwing? The 5% chance it gets intercepted? The Bills played their hearts out today, only to find out that their head coach and offensive coordinator don't trust them to complete a pass when it counts the most. Jauron is lucky he's nowhere near me right now or I might beat him within an inch of his life. He is the ONLY coach in the NFL that would have called 3 consecutive vanilla running plays in that situation. The only one. I don't know if I've ever been more pissed off.

I understand your frustration at ESPN but I don't let it piss me off. ESPN is in the business of making money just like everybody else. It's a national station and more people want to hear about the Cowboys than the Bills. If they show the Cowboys content, they get higher ratings. If they get higher ratings, companies pay more for advertising. Plain and simple.

I would insist that my children skip school for this.

Yes! Good stuff kiwi. LETS GO BUFFALO LETS GO BUFFALO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Read the thread, that post was a quasi-joke. I gamble.

I wasn't implying that athletes don't gamble. In fact, I'm sure that some of them do. My point was that everybody is just so much quicker to jump on the referees. When they make an honest mistake (because they are human) everybody is out for their blood.

Well I wasn't really trying to "get" anybody. I just like saying douchebaggy things and seeing how long it takes for someone to make me own it.

I believe the reason they didn't change the call was because it didn't affect the outcome of the game, as it was the last play of the game. In fact, Polamalu was dumb for returning the ball and potentially risking a fumble. He should have just fallen to the ground.

Actually I gamble quite a bit on sports. I win $1400 if I win my fantasy football league. I just posted that to see if somebody would call me on it haha.

When a QB overthrows a wide open receiver, or when a running back inexplicably fumbles a ball, nobody accuses them of gambling on the game. But when a ref blows a call, the fix is in?

I feel sorry for people who are dumb enough to gamble.

No, he's used it before, it's his way of calling him a p*ssy. He's looking for el gato. He thinks it's funny that Trent is from a play called "The Cats".

you realize "los gato" translates into nothing right?

They aren't wearing throwbacks tonight, they'll have them on against San Fran though.

How do you know they lack motivation? It's possible to be motivated and play poorly.

Yeah, after the last 3 weeks I'm more in the mood for an ass-kicking than an exciting game.

Cleveland is 3-6 and is on a 2 game losing streak. What is this young moxy of which you speak? Why in the world would they have any more confidence than us?

Please explain your argument why bickering within the locker-room helps a team. I can't think of any possible way that's correct.

So are you saying that a team bickering amongst itself has an advantage of some sort? I don't get it.

Spot on, especially with #5. It's been our achilles heel.

He just doesn't seem like that type of guy.

Yeah, I read that about McNabb. Just fuggin pathetic. It's sad when fans know more about the rules than players.

Dude, websites? Just download off limewire.

You said it, brother. There are few games that I've been more pumped for.

If it's snowing, I hope we don't throw it 35 times.
