  1. right...that kind of thing NEVER happens anymore...sometimes its hard to see all the trees when you are standing in the forest...

     

    You can't base fact on movies about a time period 50 years ago. I didn't hear of any beating of Ko Simpson. And I guess Rodney King wasn't really in LA when he was beaten right? Just like we never landed on the moon?

  2. Do you live in the South? If so, what state? Because Virginia isn't the south. Neither is North Carolina. Have you actually ever been to Mississippi or Alabama lately? If any home has a confederate flag flying in Mississippi or Alabama, trust me, they are just asking for lots of trouble. I'm from the south. I'm white and believe or not, my dad raised me to see everyone as equals. Growing up, I learned a lot about the South's Civil Rights era. As I've gotten older, opportunities have taken me all over the country. And the fact of the matter is, there's just as much if not more discrimination in all forms up North as in the South. Grow up, times have changed.

     

    Oh yeah, Ko Simpson was in a car speeding through a nightclub parking lot. Guess they should have just let him fishtail it out of there huh?

  3. Stupidity? I think that's harsh.

     

    People don't remember Matt Millen for his playing days and the Super Bowl rings he has, people remember him for the debacle he's responsible for in Detroit.

     

    People remember guys like Emmitt Smith and Jarome Bettis for their playing days and both have Super Bowl rings as well.

     

    There's a difference.

     

    For the record, I do agree with you. I trust his analysis and opinion as much as I do my dog's.

  4. That probably played a part in it but most football fans, the many millions of people watching the show, think of Millen as one of the worst GMs of all time. He turned the Lions into an absolute laughing stock.

     

    It's hard to take anything he says seriously.

     

    There's a lot of under the table things going on. I believe Donahoe was feeding Mortensen info when he was here. I'm sure Mort and the guys at ESPN didn't all the sudden lose contact with Donahoe when he left them to come to Buffalo. I'm sure it's the same with Millen. Doesn't matter what the fans think, how else did Millen stay a GM so long?

  5. Episode I - The Football Menace - Mired in last place in the league, the Dark Lord Ralph Wilson continues to poorly manage his football team due to old age.

     

    Episode II - Coaching Clones - After years of mediocre coaching and stoic responses, the evil Sith Lord’s apprentice Dick Jauron starts takin gover the minds of his players, making them sound and act like him.

     

    Episode III - Revenge of the Dick - After going three straight years of 7-9 football, Dick Jauron signs a contract extension with the Dark Side in order to plague the fans and media of Buffalo with more boring and sophmoric football.

     

    Episode IV - A New Hope, HA! - In a statement before the last game of the year, Ralph Wilson, the Dark Lord releases a statement that he is not happy about the current Sith apprentice Dick Jauron, but a decision will be made after the season is over. The Dark One realizes he needs the Sith apprentice to continue to make clones so no one questions his football authority.

     

    Episode v - The Players Strike Back - With rebellion stirring around the Empire of the Bills trying to oust the evil Sith Lord Apprentice Dick Jauron, the clones rally around the Sith protecting him with their superstar power.

     

    Episode VI - Return of the Moron - The Empire of Buffalo releases a statement that the Dark Sith Apprentice will return next year as the leader of the clones.

     

    - Tim Redinger

  6. The problem is even though we played sub-par teams starting off, we were carrying some momentum for the first time in a long time. It's up to the coaches to keep players focused and keep the momentum going. Confidence can do a lot for a team. It can also do a lot of bad if you're not coaching your players.

     

    BTW, were there ANY rb screen passes after week 6?
