Jeffismagic's new home

Stick THIS in your pipe and smoke it. The "definitive take" you cheer so much for is based on a guy who played for the 49ERS and then was the #3 man in Detroit who scored 8 TOUCHDOWNS. Two word refutation of TO... James Lofton. "Immediately after he was cut by the Los Angeles Raiders in 1989, receiver James Lofton called six other National Football League teams, but only one, the Philadelphia Eagles, invited him to try out. Lofton packed several suitcases, containing clothes for about six weeks, confident that he would nail down the job. "I went in and ran a couple of low 4.4's," Lofton said. "I met with the offensive coordinator and he went over the position I was going to play and they were going to sign me. I was all excited. We met for about an hour and 15 minutes and they showed me the playbook. After the meeting, Buddy Ryan came downstairs and said, 'We don't have a spot for you right now.' " As he lugged his luggage back to the airport for the return trip to Los Angeles, Lofton didn't consider the possibility, but Ryan might have saved Lofton's career. "When I look back on it, if they had handed me the pen and the contract, I would have signed, and I probably would have been done by now, because that wouldn't have worked out well for me there," the 35-year-old Lofton said recently. Since '89, a Rejuvenation In 1989, he eventually signed with the Buffalo Bills. And now, in his third season with the Bills and his 14th over all in the league, he is experiencing the rebirth of a once-brilliant career that was tarnished by scandal in Green Bay and left to wither in Los Angeles." http://www.nytimes.com/1992/01/19/sports/pro-football-the-decline-and-return-of-james-lofton.html -

Manuel was not given the chance to grow

Are we STILL talking about this bum? Let it go. The experiment with the project QB FAILED. -
Dareus tweaked hamstring, could miss camp time
EasternOHBillsFan replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
See, that's my attitude as well, and I'm 44. Been there, done that, know a pig with lipstick in a dress when you see it. Stating what is overt is somehow being "disloyal" to the Bills... sounds all too familiar sometimes. -

Remember Roscoe Parrish..?. He made a lot less money. We shall see is my take right now. NO EXCUSES for this guy now. -
Seems as if the new Panthers acting GM/decision makers are off to a flying start... right to the Tyvola Road water treatment plant LMAO

Ironically, I was the exact opposite that day. I had to drive back up to college that afternoon, and I could not find the game on the damn radio and I was PISSED. I get to my dorm right when they are replaying the Bubba McDowell INT return and I am EVEN MORE PISSED. Needless to say I watched the rest of the game and they came back like demons. An awesome late afternoon...!

Sammy Watkins over Lee Evans? NONSENSE. Give it another year. 1st Team, All-Drought Suck REPLACE RB Reggie Bush with... RB Karlos Williams

Most Underrated Bill of the Draught
EasternOHBillsFan replied to Cheektavegas Charlie's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think the most underrated Bill of the draught is Yuengling... cheap beer that tastes great! -
Glad Mike Williams Was Off The Board When We Picked
EasternOHBillsFan replied to H2o's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Needless to say he didn't need any more poor draft picks to add to his resume than he already had, which got him fired. -
Let's get ready... 2017 BOLD predictions
EasternOHBillsFan replied to GunnerBill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The first one is spot on. The second and third ones? The Giants clearly are not good enough to go deep into the playoffs offensively. -
Let's get ready... 2017 BOLD predictions
EasternOHBillsFan replied to GunnerBill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
BOLD PREDICTIONS (IN BOLD, OF COURSE!) NFL: The Minnesota Vikings will have the best record in the NFC. The San Diego Chargers will earn the #1 overall selection in the 2018 NFL Draft. The AFC South will only have one playoff representative- the Jacksonville Jaguars. BILLS: The Buffalo Bills will have a better record than the Kansas City Chiefs. Zay Jones will have more receiving yards than Sammy Watkins. Charles Clay will increase his receiving yards total to over 800 yards. -
ESPN 30 for 30 on Mike and the MadDog
EasternOHBillsFan replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
NEVER liked this duo... so loud and obnoxious. There is attitude and then there is just plain noise that pierces the ears. It's tough to find quality sports talk radio these days to be honest. I am Bills and Pirates, and my basketball team is the New York Knicks, so yeah... -
Tom Brady & The Stanley Cup
EasternOHBillsFan replied to /dev/null's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Ummm... NO. Needless to say most Bills/Sabres fans probably hate Brady's guts and Boston more than the Penguins. I would rather the Pens win 10 Cups than the Bruins 1. -
BILLS/OILERS WILDCARD GAME

For SURE!!! I remember those old NBC days... miss Paul Maguire most of all. Golden days of NFL broadcasting before FOX screwed it up... -
Stop with "Schedule is Hard"--Analytics says it BS
EasternOHBillsFan replied to Big Turk's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So the very idea that there is a system for success in professional football, analytics, is really a bogus idea. Like gambling, you can increase the odds of success POSSIBLY, but the odds are still the odds. You can never predict whether or not you get a Curtis Martin or a Shawne Merriman... a Warren Sapp or an Albert Haynesworth... an Andrew Luck or a JaMarcus Russell. Injuries... mental issues... drug issues... it just cannot be defined to be sure.
