  1. I like this response on PFT:

    This whole "we know its hard times" line is total bull. They want blackouts. If they didn't they would price seats so that a family of four could reasonably enjoy a day at the game for the same as a night at the movies.

     

    Right now they are getting ZERO dollars for every empty seat, when they could be getting 15 or 20.

     

    They want blackouts, they want a reason to move the team.

     

     

     

    Um, don't they have the cheapest seat in the league?

     

    I live in Fl and in Orlando the Dolphins and the Bucs have Billboards for games..... Jax has none... poor marketing

  2. Quick and not very complex interview. Lee is very low key.

     

    Q. No huddle. Going to use it?

    A. Thinks they plan to use it a lot. Helps to dictate pace.

     

    Q. Does Lee like the No Huddle?

    A. Different, Need to be in shape. Big adjustment, but he likes it.

     

    Q. No Huddle difficult for young line and QB?

    A. Didn't really answer the Q. Need a lot of communication. Talking all the time to each other to be on the same page.

     

    Q. How about attending Larry Fitzgerald Camp?

    A. Got a lot done. Camaraderie. Good time

     

    Q. Did the star WRs protect or share their "secrets"?

    A. Bit of both, but you learn by observing others, and asking questions. Different WRs have different ways to run routes.

     

    Q.Addition of TO more opportunities for Lee, or fewer?

    A. More, a lot more.

     

    Q. Did he ever think TO would be in Buffalo

    A. No. Never. Shocked when he heard...in a good way.

     

    Q. Can Trent command respect from TO?

    A. Lee thinks so. Right now they are all learning from each other, all learning from TO. Developing rapport. Thinks Trent is strong enough to stand up for himself if it comes to that.

     

    Q. Will TO's flash rub off on Lee?

    A. Maybe, but Lee is all about winning. Never been to playoffs and that's the goal. Wants to learn what it takes to get there.

     

    There you have it. In a nutshell.

     

    I think a lot of players could learn a lot about being a professional football player from Lee. He could start with Maybin!! Peters could have taken a page from Lee's negotioans as well

  3. I HAVE SAID THIS BEFORE IN ANOTHER THREAD...dealing with the SAME EXACT TOPIC!

     

    "Maybin’s value should fall somewhere between the respective five-year contracts signed by Raji ($28.5 million, with just under $18 million guaranteed) and Orakpo ($20 million, with $12.1 million guaranteed)."

     

     

    give the sumbitch 5 years - $24 million, $14 mill guarenteed. was that hard to figure out?

     

     

    I agree we need him in camp..... Just get it done!!!

  4. Syracuse and Binghamton stations, which are what is shown in Ithaca, have - at least until this year - shown the Bills over the Jets. So I wonder how long you have been out of Ithaca. It is true that WBNG showed the Jets over the Bills in 1998, but they quickly switched back the following year.

     

    You can get Bills games on the radio and not the Giants and Jets games. If Ithaca is not a Bills town, then it is not because it is full of hippies and college students from NYC.

     

     

    We prefer Tree Huggers and Red Necks....I spent 20 years in Ithaca (T-Burg) and was like now a HUGE Bills fan. There is a mixed bag but the Bills were always on TV.

  5. Can anyone tell me how Brad Butler was doing at tackle before he got injured. I had high hopes that he could convert and do well. But I have heard that he was getting burnt by guys like Kelsay and Denny. I also heard he looked slow and now this back injury has me worried.

     

    Is all that true or is it exaggerated? And have there been any new updates on his back injury?

     

     

    Hopefully We will get an update tonight after practice. CB says he was absent today.
