Regardless of whether they turn out to be or not, it's easy to say these moves were mistakes. It takes no critical thinking to parrot this popular view and offer nothing more, which, without hearing the interview, is what I'm assuming happened because it fits the Ryan family MO. It's Rex's comments on the Bills-Jets game, redux. The jilted Ryans will never acknowledge that if they were better coaches they wouldn't have been fired 4 times in 2 years, collectively, because it would mean finally accepting responsibility for their shortcomings, which is not in their DNA. Instead they will stand together with their "us against the world" approach and take their cheap, mindless potshots against all who have wronged them at every provided opportunity. He's probably just mad he can't afford to give a go-fer $1000 per week to stock his junk food drawer anymore, the fat, useless POS.

Take the clapping over there, McProcess.

I was going to say the Patriots*, but then I realized you meant there was a d**k ON the helmet, not IN the helmet.

Yes, but if we cut Holmes we get a comp pick, which is so much more important than winning.

At one point Whaley was trying to represent the Williams on the field, but... Maybe instead of a buffalo they could put a meatball on the helmet as an homage to Kyle.

A little 80's cross pollination of threads going out to TBD this morning with Foreigner's Zay You Will Zay you will... Zay you won't! Please catch the ball next time. Zay you do... Zay you don't want to be cryin'.

When I think about the Bills, my heart turns to stone. That game on Sunday tells me all I need to know. I just want a team that will get low down and dirty to pull out a win when it's needed, but instead this team never plays like it's under the gun. Urgent... not to this sorry bunch. There are a few bright spots. Poyer - break it up! Good to see that when it comes to winning, the flame still burns for some of these guys. Bills fandom, now that's growing up the hard way. I keep saying I'm done with this team, but we all know that's a white lie. Too late for me. This misery will go on until the end of time. Save yourselves. Quit this team. Say you will. That's all I need to know and I'll feel better.

Problem is, trophies too often require a lot of polishing to keep them happy...

TD Mike is dead to me. For now, his nickname shall be "O'fer - AKA 4th down Mike".

Germans? Forget it, he's rolling...

When we replace the coaching staff and GM in two years the incoming staff can clean house once again and then the offense and defense should be able to both suck at the same time.

When will Brian Brohm be ready to start. I hear he tore it up at Louisville.

I'd be more likely to do this if there was a means to "allocate" the subscription fee to "reward" content I chose while "penalizing" and limiting access to content I refuse to read. I read an article by Kimberly Martin yesterday and literally said to myself afterwards that it was refreshing to read an article devoid of the agenda that is layered throughout content churned out by the BN's old guard. I refuse to subscribe to a service that somehow justifies Sullivan's and Gleason's continued existence at BN, and have grown weary of Graham and Carruci in similar fashion over the last several years. While $3 per month is in no way unreasonable for a quality product, acquiescing to pay it for this content under these circumstances, symbolically, is not something I'm willing to do. If I find I'm jonesing for hometown coverage I may take SDS's advice and write the BN, but I suspect the absence of content won't leave too tremendous a void in my life.

I think I also teared up when, after the sale of the team, Wilson's trust revealed the fact that 2/3 of the money from the sale would go to fund initiatives in the cities of Buffalo and Detroit. For someone who was accused of a lot of things regarding his financial motivations during his lifetime, that to me said a lot about Mr. Wilson and his true motivations to have something that significant announced posthumously.

Says the man with the Muppet avatar...

Some people. How could anyone assume you're trolling? You're using the Bills own material and rigidly adhering to it. Like the part where Chris Brown talks about Shady's groin soreness and you interpret it as a lingering injury... Or the part where McDermott states it was a scheduled rest day for veterans and you note that Shady's already missing practice... The nerve of some people.

Can't ever recall a game. Definitely teared up when I heard about Kent Hull. Less so about Ralph given his age, but a little nonetheless.

I wonder why that red thing with horns over there is holding a piece of paper with my name signed in blood and is pointing at me and laughing...

I can't believe that Dareus will only play 59% of the defensive snaps in the upcoming Bills-Jets game on Sunday.

~~sigh~~ It will all be ok soon when I'm at home in Wes's manly, comforting arms.

He's been behind an OLine? I thought he played in Indy?

...still trying to figure out what the hell Vance Joseph's background has to do with an old, old wooden ship?!

Was this meant to be in the Rex was a terrible coach thread? There's not a single mention of McDermott in the responses that I skimmed a second ago...

If the drink throwing, Rob throat grab, Rex limbo-ing away YouTube video from the North Carolina mall bar wasn't enough to dispel the "Rex would be a cool guy to hang out with" nonsense, then I'd say your "beer with-o-rameter" is broken.

Interesting defensive philosophy. Kinda gives new meaning to total domination. In general, I think the league has demonstrated it would be fine with this as long as it's not directly referred to as a bounty, and as long as it's not caught on tape.
