I tend to agree. Time is money, and the more time he spends here the less money is left elsewhere in all likelihood. If they weren't interested, they would take the numbers and run elsewhere. Couldn't let 108+ pages go by without adding my 2 cents.

If you look at the article again, he actually breaks up the quote and puts the last part first to make it seem like Nix is contradicting himself, which is even more misleading than leaving out that part of the quote altogether.

His dance showed he's immature, but it didn't cost us the game... His stone hands in the clutch, however, did.

How, then, would you "count" a touchdown that a receiver batted in the air to prevent an interception? Just curious.

That's John McClane. Rolando is the flakey aging actress who believes she was reincarnated. She helped Clint Eastwood shoot a train once.

"Crabhouse" http://www.schwartzbros.com/chandlers.cfm I hear the cha-ching of an endorsement deal!

We're hardly alone in giving up 450+ yards to NE*, Oakland, or Philly this year. Expecting a desperate Iggles team that's loaded with talent not to put up some numbers on this defense is unrealistic. IMO, the concerning game was last week when we couldn't stop the Bengals in the second half. Andy Dalton is not supposed to do that, at least not at this point in time. He had all day to sit back and throw the ball. Hit him last week like they blasted Vick at times today and we're 5-0. Looking through the rest of the schedule, I'd expect that most of the season is going to be a track meet, with only the Skins, Phins, Denver, and possibly Tennessee and the Jets not putting up points with regularity. At least we can hang with the big boys on offense now. Beats watching a team check-down to the tune of 13 points per game while giving up 450+ on defense... doesn't it?

That can be said of just about any player at this point in time, unfortunately. Taking what I was saying a step further, I could see Peyton Manning, the rookie, coming to Blo and establishing a career despite the bad team... he did it in Indy. I don't think Mallett is that player, so it'd be bad both for the team and the player, cuz it'd be 3 more years of "development" before we could move on to the next "next franchise QB."

As much as I hate the idea that *NE may have drafted the likely successor to Brady, I think this is probably accurate. The thing that often gets overlooked is that athletes, like everyone else on this planet, mature at different rates. Mallett can have all of the talent in the world, but put him on a team that is expecting him to be the starting QB now, and he's likely to crack under the pressure. *NE and other teams with established QBs that can take the time to groom a guy like this are the most likely to actually help him realize his potential, whereas the Bills as presently constituted (bad team with an offense decidely not befitting his strengths) would have probably prematurely annihilated his confidence and career before he ever got the chance to establish himself.

71 yards, a sack and a pick against backups is hardly worth the optimism you're sporting. And your manner of self righteous, unsupported, chest thumping is most offputting, as is your overuse of .

I think you just made the fans of two big ten rivals very angry.

If you're insinuating that I'm not a Bills fan because I have a sense of humor, I'd argue that in order to follow this team a sense of humor is a prerequisite to maintaining your fandom AND your sanity.

How about... "Miss-Fires Fitzgibbons and the Three 'n' Outz" or maybe... "3 Play D-breather" or possibly... "Fourth and 10"

I was thinking the same thing. For all those saying we can't replace Evans as a deep threat with what's on the roster, we have a running back who's built the same, only faster. One that Gailey admitted he couldn't figure out how to use last year. Motioning him wide out of the backfield every now and then and just letting him run straight down the field is more versatile than lining up a receiver every play whose one and only trick is that, no matter how good Evans was at it.

Maybin... Brown... Howard... get over here and show camp fodder, here, how a real benchwarmer does the wave!!

While I don't dispute for a second that repeated head trauma leads to degenerative brain disease, I'm not so certain that Mackey's was due to this. Frontotemporal dementia can occur sporadically or run in families, and the onset is typically in the 50s, which fits in his case. Aside from the fact that he played football and was famous, there is nothing unusual about his circumstances to suggest that head trauma was the cause, at least from what I read in Pitoniak's article.

THEIR, THEY'RE, ITS NOT SO BAD WHEN ITS RIDDLED WITH DYSPROPER GRAMMAR, NOW, WRITE?

I think it has dual meaning - First, the author is pissed he has to travel to New Jersey to watch yet another of his home teams, and second, this cut-rate hack thinks if he mentions an NFL team his editor will reassign him from covering high school football. I just love it when someone thinks that pissing on someone else's foot will make him feel better about wearing old beat up sneakers with the hole in the toe

Or the beginning of the Tom Donahoe era where over 1/3 of the cap was John Butler's "dead space."

If you've ever frozen a limb and yet refused to leave before the end of the game, you might be a Bills fan. If you're solution to keeping your hot chocolate from freezing in the cup in your hand was to add more alcohol to it (which, in retrospect may have accounted for the above stupidity), you might be a Bills fan.

Looks like he may have bulked up some after the skin bleaching.

He reminds me of the kid in Bad Santa.

Unless our D-line and LBs are improved, what difference does it make? No one will throw at us if they can run the ball down our throats for 250 yards a game. We won't know what we have in the secondary until teams actually need to test it. Just my opinion.

Every time I see mention of Fitzgibbons I laugh... even though I recognize the ridiculousness/stupidity of it. Maybe that is ultimately why I think it is funny. Boo, me.

And he's never been fully committed to bringing in someone to be THE caretaker for his organization so he could sit back and enjoy the results... and the first time he truly tried, the Donahoe disaster bit him in the ass. IMHO.
