  1. Now see, that is what I'm talking about. You can't just make your point, you have to throw in that "capiche" at the end, like I'm a dolt that can't figure out the context of your post. All that does is show your ignorance, not mine. However, like K-9 has said now, I guess I should have stayed out of it. Apparently some people can't be reasoned with. You are probably right in thinking that a positive post and opinion are all that should be put on here. Shame on anyone that feels the Bills need to prove something to fans before they throw their hearts under the bus they are riding to Foxboro in.

     

    Keep in mind, it's the fans' lack of proof that is needed, not their loyalty. Nobody here from what I can recall has ever said they are going to completely give up on this team. The thought had been thrown about, but never taken seriously.

     

    I don't believe calling someone out on this does anything but question their loyalty, which I don't think anyone on here needs.

     

    So, yes, while I "capiche", as you say, I don't have to agree. Like I said before, I agree with most of what was said. The team has a chance, maybe even a good chance for a win. I don't agree with this opinion on opinions though. Hey, that's just my opinion.

    Ok, using the word "capiche" was a little over the top. It really wasn't so much targeted towards you, more so towards one of the other posters, you just happened to get hit in the crossfires. Regardless, my apologies.

     

    I don't have an issue with the opinions of other posters, but when you hear a constant theme from certain posters, like the "I think Trent sucks" or "The Bills Suck" it get's a little old, and I don't see an issue on calling them out on it. As a matter of fact, I do believe it makes certain people reflect upon themselves, which I believe is hardly ever a bad thing.

     

    I don't have a problem with anyone

  2. Link - Eagles Notes: Bills' Peters could hold interest for Eagles

     

    Could be just speculation or wishful thinking by the writer but, if the Eagles are really interested in FatBoy, their 2 first round picks look awfully tempting. We get rid of a malcontent who's only going to keep pulling this crap every time someone gets a better deal, and end up with 3 first round picks.

     

    Git 'er done, Russ.

    I don't think that's gonna happen. According to Tim and his connections, he doesn't even believe that he will get even 1 first round. I don't agree with that, but I also don't believe that we will get two first rounders as well.

     

    And stop correcting me! :thumbsup:

  3. Don't ask for a link ... I heard it on WGR this am ... Jauron was talking that Ellison is the starting LB, unless they find a FA that knocks their socks off and that Chambers / Bell will compete at LG ... so apparently we're not bring in any more free agents ... so outside of a likely upgrade at center, a hole at LG and no upgrades on D ... we have only the TO move this offseason ... So, while the TO move is an upgrade at WR, I think it is largely a PR move to sucker us back in while they make no major improvements to the roster ...

     

    why do I even care any more?!? :thumbsup::D:wallbash::wallbash::wallbash::wallbash::wallbash::wallbash:

    ya, don't be such a simpleton :lol:

  4. That's great and I at least mostly agree with you. It does seem that you are saying that the only opinion to be heard is a positive one though.

     

    However, the comment in question, which is what I was referring to, not what you said later, was a fairly childish remark aimed to belittle someone for having a negative opinion. It seems that these conversations could develop more and go further without the put down every few comments, especially for sharing an opinion.

     

    If 1Billsfan doesn't believe the Bills will win week 1, that's his opinion to share and should not be ridiculed for it, especially by someone with 4 posts who more than likely doesn't have a clue about the history of the the posts on this board. Most of us read through these daily and while we don't personally know each other, we do have an understanding of each other. It seems a bit ridiculous for someone that new to be calling out someone like that.

     

    As for week one, I agree completely that we have a chance. It's a new season and anything can happen. However, for those that have accepted the futility that has been the Bills for so long now, we don't need to judge them either because they are right as well. Until something changes and this team shows that they are improved, the fans don't necessarily need to get their hopes up for another letdown.

    not buying it

     

    If someone wants to call out someone, then they have the right to do it. It's not as if you need to have a certain amount of posts to have an opinion of someone. On top of it all, I've seen 1Billsfan's posts for a while now, and he really does have some of the worst posts that I have read here, in my view, and that is saying something.

     

    So I'm glad that Deadstroke and pushpile called him out on it. It's our opinion, this is a message board, and if someone is going to have a user name as 1Billsfan and you are constantly negative, then you'd have to be naive to think that you are not going to be a target of insult on a Bills message board. capiche?

  5. Tim, there was an article on cbssports and yahoo that stated that Jason Peters agent is Vincent Taylor. I'm thinking that they misquoted his agent. Can you clear it up for us. Also do you know if they are continuing negotions as well?

  6. I get the feeling that it was Parker who dropped Peters.

     

    I've given equal consideration to all sides of the Peters arguments, and I've never seen a world where Peters has the leveraging power. Perhaps Parker saw the Peters talks as a never ending uphill battle.

    Ok

     

    seriously, I believe this has to be one of the dumbest posts of the month

  7. I just got on about a month ago, and apparently the whole world knows me.

     

    on a serious note, I saw people that I knew that I hadn't even thought about in over a decade. It was pretty cool to see what some of these people now looked like.

     

    Apparently, people gain weight as they get older.

     

    weird

  8. Sure, the draft is coming up and everyone has their selections based on needs at different positions, but will Turk Schonert prove that he can guide an offense that builds on players strengths in order to suceed in moving the ball down field or is he really just another Steve Fairchild, who plays not to lose (a la Dick Jauron)...so conservative and predictable, that the Bills will stay near the bottom of the league on offense - no better than 25th in the NFL the last six seasons.

     

    Bills on Offense in the last six years:



    25th in 2008

    30th in 2007

    30th in 2006

    28th in 2005

    25th in 2004

    30th in 2003

    There is another way to look at it.

     

    In the last 6 years, last year was our best.

     

    We're movin on up :nana:

  9. Can you get anymore delusional? Please explain to all of us exactly how you see the Dick "Lifetime Loser" Jauron led Buffalo Bills beating the Bill Belichick led Pats in their home opener on Monday Night f'n Football sparky. They couldn't even beat them WITHOUT Tom Brady!!!!

     

    :nana:

     

     

    Sorry, but being a Bills fan doesn't mean you must check your brain at the door. I not only have given up on that game, but after the Ralph "Jump the Gun" Wilson decided to keep that loser Jauron and after seeing our schedule, I gave up on the 2009 season pal. It's up to the coach and players to prove the doubters like me wrong. I've had it with the false bravado, these lightweights don't scare anybody.

    what does this have to do with the post that you quoted?

     

     

    one more question

     

    are you an oxymoron?

  10. What does "4 posts in" have to do with anything? I didn't realize that you had to hit a certain number before you can give opinions. I guess your 900 and something posts gives you some sort of self worth you never had. Don't drive new members away because you have to prop yourself up. Besides the clown he was talking about is an embarrassment to Bills fans. Revolt? Are you kidding me? This guy is going to lead a revolt against the Bills FO? What a joke! The dude is already giving up on a game that's months away. Can you get any weaker?

     

    You really took the exact words out of my mouth. I was just about to type :

  11. it's "genius's" :thumbdown:

     

    yes - leach, never at a loss for words, could not have been more effusive about harrell...

     

    "I think he's the best quarterback in the draft. People view things different, but all those experts - quote, unquote - that say this guy or that guy is the best, well, they're wrong every year. My opinion is as good as theirs. Yeah, I have a bias toward him, but I believe Graham is the best in the draft..."

     

    then leach goes on to say a lot more...

  12. This story actually came out a few days earlier from a different news outlet. Anyways from ProFootballTalk:

     

    "Last week, Penn State’s Aaron Maybin raised eyebrows at his Pro Day with a performance fueled by a stunning, “you-wouldn’t-like-me-when-I’m-angry” increase in his physique.

     

    North Carolina’s Hakeem Nicks also showed off a new body last week – but not in a good way.

     

    Since tweaking his hamstring at the Scouting Combine, Nicks had been unable to work out. And, as a result, he gained roughly 15 pounds in three weeks. (NFL.com has the number as 14; we’ve heard that he gained 16 pounds.)

     

    As one scout who attended the session opined: “He looked like a fat tight end not a lean receiver. . . . He’s got to have a weight problem. This is the most important few months of his life and he gains a ton of weight. I don’t get it. Many scouts and coaches went away very disappointed.”

     

    That said, we’re told that Nicks already has shed much of the weight, and that he’ll be working out privately for the Bears and the Dolphins."

     

    I'm a very big fan of Hakeem Nicks. I've been following him for a few years now. He's always been a good performer and never has he seemed out of shape to me.

     

    The news about him being out of shape seems a bit odd to me. Either way, if his draft stock falls, I believe some team is gonna get one heck of a player.

  13. You spend no time lamenting, huh? That's certainly nice and friendly of you. Sorry, but I have a major problem with a former #8 picked Bills' player not living up to his high price (see Ngata wearing a Raven uniform). Look at the stats and please tell me where Whitner is exactly is better than Scott. You're like all the other Bills fans who think that since Donte Whitner is one of the better known players that he must be good. Aren't stats a B word? Donte Whitner was supposed to be the next Bob Sanders, Brian Dawkins, Troy Polamalo, Mike Brown, Rodney Harrison. Given the stats so far in his career the only guy Whitner is comparable to is his backup, Scott. But you don't have time to lament that. Maybe we should cut every Buffalo Bill some slack, if the #8 picked guy can fizzle without lament from the fans then why not every guy on the team.

    please spare everyone and keep your opinions to yourself

  14. Care to compare bonafides then? Or perhaps you care to point to specific examples of my lack of knowledge vs. an opinion you don't share with me. Can't wait to see what you come up with.

     

    GO BILLS!!!

    I don't have to if I don't wanna

  15. Please allow me to boil it down for you:

     

    JP = great potential.

     

    Whitner = bust.

     

    Like Bakay says, it's so easy when you break it down scientifically.

     

    GO BILLS!!!

    sorry,

     

    gotta agree with Deadstroke

     

    K-9 = know nothing
