  1. i heard he babysat jesus..
  2. glad to see that, but i was wondering more of a "big picture" type of thing, not specifically, if guys are working, or groups, but generally, if all teams have to scramble to get started, what happens next?
  3. i cant really come to a definitive conclusion that's why i am asking. once camps, OTA'S start, whatever, i thought maybe everyone starts equally or is equally behind. but talent level is the key and the bills arent there yet, i guess.
  4. at the risk of being verbally "beat up" for bringing this up, i was wondering if the lack of OTA'S, off-season prep etc, will allow some teams (the bills)possibly a chance to catch up to the other's?
  5. well, that certainly seems like something to wonder about... as speculated on here, kelly and co buy 49 per-cent, wilson's family remain involved? those options do give hope and it sounds like you know more than your letting on.. lol.. but your insight is much appreciated..
  6. i know, it is just hard to face, i guess. i mainly look at it from the on-the-field perspective. they are essentially forfeiting home field advantage , but, again, economics and market size drive the league. my thought is , would someone like pegula, or kelly live with a smaller profit margin in exchange for not giving up the T O game(s)?
  7. so, left unsaid then is that we will play an additional game in TO, OR , maybe split the games?, both options are not my favorites. hopefully , the new owner will just sink or swim at the ralph.. in my opinion, it is hardly a losing proposition if they choose to do so. of course, if they are greedy, it is moot.
  8. while i agree with your points about WNBA, ETC, i kinda disagree about the NHL. sure im biased about my love for hockey, but the NHL did strike a lucrative deal with versus/NBC, and just maybe it is taking some baby steps into some real growth. i think it wasnt that long ago that the NHL had to pay to get their product on the national airwaves.
  9. then why is he on in buffalo? buffalo is a rabid hockey town as we all know and the fact that he doesnt like hockey, and even ridicules it, baffles me. for that reason alone, he should be off in buffalo.
  10. ok, i am not going to turn this into a sabre's post, but letting drury, briere and campbell walk for essentially nothing in inexcusable, not a way to operate a franchise.i would expect the same mindset if he took over the bills, "just break even" is golisano's mantra, not win.as for vanek, that whole contract situation was a total case of mismanagement 101.
  11. not to speak for the poster, but i would assume he was referring to where gailey lived prior to coming to the bills.. just a guess.
  12. yea, i know, would prefer him, and, overall, the options out there give me confidence that the team will stay. you could have groups, consisting of kelly, wegman, bob rich, whatever. despite the hand-wringing, there is still money in the WNY area to secure the team's future.
  13. i know, that thought is quite alarming, but again, do we want a sh-tty team, or no team at all? lousy options, i know, but that is the reality if tom G gets in.
  14. yea, at one point it was, ahh! the good old days! "rife" was actually a college end out of michigan, believed he caught a pass in the rose bowl in the forties. he was all substance and no pazazz!, would never last today!.. sure miss his style!
  15. LMAO! , thought the same thing!
  16. i want to compete every year. i always have hope that this "is the year". i want things to fall into place and have them at least sniffing the playoffs into december. i live for the present, not easy though being a buffalo sports fan.
  17. he certainly was, but again, what is the criteria for consideration, much less selection? i can suggest guys from the early 60's. i feel it is just ralph , in his own mind, reconizing loyalty first and foremost.
  18. lou saban not on the wall only lends credence that the wall is not necessarily a collection of "all-time great buffalo bills", but a reflection who ralph feels is worthy. that is why i am in agreement with the poster who said, "why have a wall of fame committee" ?
