Why do you equate not thinking the Bills are going to beat good teams with not supporting the team? I never understood that line of thinking. Even if they don't think the team is good enough to beat Denver or the cheaters and even with the snow-pocalypse, the fans will still be there supporting the team. Don't be so one dimensional.

From what I am hearing around here (Rochester area) the expectation is that the next one will dump most of it's snow considerably further south than the last one.

The ones that can make it in practice indoors, whats the big deal. It is supposed to be in the 50's Sunday. Unless there are flooding issues I fail to see what the big deal is. Would the league really postpone the game simply because some of the Bills couldn't make it to practice?

Yup and now if the old dude and his wife and daughter all get the crabs I will believe in karma

I agree about the talent stockpiling. But in hockey draft picks very rarely start contributing as quickly as you are predicting. Most will spend a few years in the juniors and/or the AHL, then have their rookie seasons up at the NHL level, THEN be ready to contribute. Even the two most promising kids, Zadarov and Ristolainen, who I predict will have very good NHL careers based on what they have shown so far, should not be playing in the NHL right now. They should be in the development leagues and are only up at the Sabres because of how badly the Sabres suck right now. Though they beat the Sharks last night for the 2nd time this season, and soundly ... go figure. I agree the Sabres are on the right path regarding growing their own talent, I'm not sold entirely on Ted Nolan yet but we will see. However I think next year is probably 2 years anyway too soon to expect a strong team.

I think it is a combination of things that others have brought up. Lucky wins early, Marrone not needing to make key decisions, Orton playing above his mediocrity, Chicago being a major pretender and so on. The stars aligned for the Bills early. But over the course of the season teams will show what they really are. The Bills at the moment are mediocre.

It's nice that Gresham reached out. The "me me, !@#$ everyone else" mentality of the old dude I guess I will never understand.

"The Bills aren't playing. I don't know who to screw over now."

I disagree!!!!! We are having a polite exchange of differing opinions!

Well, that may be because they can't.

Totally agree there!

I agree with you about the free for all when it comes to foul balls etc, and I agree with you about kids first. But to me if a player is intending to give a souvenir to a specific person, be it man, woman, child, or something in between, then it stops being a free for all. I would think most everyone would feel this way but maybe I'm wrong. I can see someone making a grab for it in the heat of the moment. But I would think after thinking about it, a rational adult would give it to the person for whom it was intended. And to me anyway, this adult is a scumbag.

A proper analogy is a baseball player tossing a ball to a specific fan and having an adult grab it instead and using force to do so. A random foul ball is a completely different situation.

I saw a report on TV about a police dept. I think it was in Austin TX that has instituted mandatory training for its officers to prevent shootings as much as possible. But not shootings of people, shootings of dogs. They said when a dog gets shot their switchboard crashes from all the calls. That does not happen when a human gets shot. So basically people care more about dogs than other people.

This makes perfect sense unless Marrone thinks his job is in jeopardy this season in which case he will opt for the possibility of a few more wins. Which is obviously bad for the future of the Bills.

Buffalo is in full on winter mode right now. Better warn your kids

It makes sense to buck the stats occasionally based on matchups. But in general you follow them. Also, to ignore the stats completely to the point of apparently (according to another quote) not realizing he was bucking the stats seems ridiculous to me in this day and age. Seems like old school to the point of going back to the stone ages.

I have that same sick feeling. If fast Freddie is close to 100% and Watkins is also back to almost 100% (not too sure on this one, groins sometimes take lots of time) I will feel better about it. I predict another close game with maybe a turnover deciding it. The 12th man could have a significant impact on this game as well.

It is really not difficult if, like papazoid said, you simply follow the rules. You cannot talk bad about refs, which I personally think is a cowards rule by the NFL. And players/coaches are required to talk to the press at defined times. So simple even a beastmode should be able to figure it out.

The skank apple doesn't fall far from the tree I guess. Your house huh. This thread has been enlightening.

Hahahahahahahahaahahaahahaahahahaahahahahaahah!!!!!! My 13 year old knows that. Maybe he should apply for the HC job! I can teach him all the required cliches

Yeah the hardcore racist one was particularly disturbing. Maybe that racist was just pissed off that his clubs twitter account was hacked http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/11/anonymous-responds-to-kkks-twitter-taunts-by-hacking-taking-over-their-account/

The original premise seems very flawed to me. Forget about if Schwartz would be a good HC and Johnson a good DC. After 14 years of sub .500 performance do you think holding a HC in his 2nd year to task to get to 10-6 and make the playoffs (which 10-6 probably wouldn't do anyway) is rational or something the Bills would do? I don't. If they lose out the rest of the way and look terrible doing it (like they have the past 2 games) then perhaps. But otherwise, Marrone et. al. will be back for at least one more season. They might offer Hackett as a human sacrifice, but not much else would change I don't think.

The "oh fer" tends to do that to you.
