  1. I bet the dude cuts a mean rug in those Uggs of his
  2. 62-7. Enough said. I still smile at the very thought, by the way.
  3. Tebow could not carry Reich's jock as a QB. That said, we weren't beating Dallas with any quarterback. Like JJ said at halftime of that game, "We're not Houston." He was right.
  4. I think I was most shocked that Blake went to Princeton. That's a case of the apple landing far, far from the tree if you ask me.
  5. That was definitely part of the problem with Flutie... that and the fact that the team told him they wanted him to start. A couple of weeks later they traded for RJ and, to add insult to injury, took the #11 that Flutie originally asked for and gave it to RJ. (You can't wear his college #22 as a QB in the NFL, and Steve Christie already had #2, so Flutie took #11.)
  6. Nothing wrong with learning from past mistakes. Not opposed to bringing Smith in and drafting a guy. Just saying you can't bring Smith in to be a caretaker. Bring him in to be the guy or to compete on an equal footing with everyone else.
  7. NP... But to clarify, it didn't make Drew Bledsoe very happy when we drafted JP Losman. Nor, to go a bit farther back, did it thrill a just-signed Doug Flutie that we turned around, traded for Rob Johnson and then had the head coach proclaim "it's the Wade Phillips and Rob Johnson show." In both cases we ended up with two ineffective, unhappy quarterbacks. You have to bring Smith in to be the guy. And if we happen to draft someone in the third round and he comes in and flat wins the job (like Wilson in Seattle), well, that's okay too. Just don't set it up like "Smith will be our guy until the new guy is ready." That's a recipe for disaster.
  8. You don't get to be a marketing genius without studying the bait-and-switch.
  9. It worked out so great the last time we traded for a #1 draft pick at quarterback and then drafted a QB in the first round; why wouldn't we want to do it again?
  10. My high school classmate married him. Many of the folks who are closer to her than I am regard him as a complete d-bag. But that's second-hand information. I can only evaluate what he's done for this franchise. There are two ways to market a team. One is to do what Brandon has done. The other is to win. I guess the best you can say for him is that he's made winning irrelevant to whether the team stays here.
  11. This. The only thing in sports that I enjoy almost as much as a Bills win is a loss by any of about a dozen teams (Jets, Pats, Dolphins, Steelers, Cowboys, etc). Sometimes, depending on the degree of humiliation administered, I enjoy those losses MORE than a Bills win. Like Monday night? That was more fun than any win we had this year.
  12. Sorry, no way I can buy that Pete was simply testing his own players. Occam's Razor applies here. Among several hypotheses, always select that which requires the fewest assumptions. To buy your theory, I have to assume a number of things. To buy the theory that he wanted to run up the score and rub it in, I simply have to assume that he's a d*ck. That's so close to fact it's no longer an assumption.
  13. LOL Graham couldn't even cleanly pick up that ball there
  14. If Gailey was smart, we wouldn't be in this situation to begin with.
  15. I hope that means we leave him in Canada.
  16. That fourth down play epitomized the season.
  17. Like the announcer said, not being able to stop them is one thing, but a fake punt is a complete other thing. Pete Carroll has always been one of the biggest douchebags in sports.
  18. Wilson may not be able to play in the NFL. But we can't either.
  19. The best part is Seattle will run off a 20-play, 15-minute drive and we'll only get to see Thigpen kneel out the clock.
