  1. I'm Ron Burgundy?
  2. Looking at this in a different light, calling for Tuel over EJ could be a subconscious acknowlegment by that contingent of fans who always wants the backup to play that Manuel is, or should be, the undisputed starter (at least in their mind... you know, as they're calling for the backup to play... did I just walk in a circle?).
  3. Speak for yourself. I say, cut EJ and Kolb right now and let Tuel fight it out with the other longshot saviours of training camps past, Levi Brown and Brian Brohm.

  5. IIRC, as early as last offseason there were rumblings that Levitre had intended to test the market. I think Byrd may have as well. It's much easier to extend players like Kelsay who already realize the market isn't likely to yield more than what they're being extended for. Not the case here. Apples and oranges. Players won't be interested in a Bills' hometown discount until they're good enough to contend for a ring. As much as it sucks as a fan of a football team, it's what almost anyone would do in their situation.
  6. Uhh... not really what I had in mind. Now this on the other hand... What was that old saying about wanting something done right?
  7. I see this more as a last year/this year first rd QB showcase to drum up interest and ratings in preseason. EJ has been getting some national attention, so there's already some interest. Granted, RG III may not play, but not everyone who tunes in would know this ahead of time.
  8. I opened this thread hoping to see a scantily clad hot chick lying across the hood of a Ferrari.
  9. If we has tanked LAST season for Luck, that would have shown a serious lack of judgement since he was already in the league at that point, playing for the team that employed that approach the season before.
  10. How is this even a question? The new face of TBD: THE CHROISE!!!
  11. Kendall Gaskins makes the team, and in the season opener he meets Spikes in the hole and elbows him so hard in the head that it comes clean off Brandon's shoulders and rolls across the field leaving a bloody wake. Gaskins then taunts Spikes' lifeless body as they haul it off the field. Normally one to frown on such antics, in this instance I somehow find it in my heart to look the other way... and when no one is looking, I even smile to myself a little in the face of this "tragedy" as I feel an unexpected sense of justice and satisfaction.
  12. DUDE, did you put Tiger Balm in my jock?!?! Man, I would never... okay, maybe a little bit.
  13. Easy to forget how good we had it. Kelley was a perfect example of someone who could cover a team in good times and bad, and was not afraid to deliver criticism, sometimes pointedly and vehemently, but had the credibility to back it up. He was also a talented writer, the likes of which is unfortunately quickly becoming extinct in this "instant gratification" society we live in.
  14. I think you have to have a soul to shed tears. It probably started to rain, his face got wet, and the imbecile thought he was crying. Was it a clumsy reference to MW's Instagram of Hernandez? http://blacksportsonline.com/home/2013/06/mario-williams-mocks-aaron-hernandezs-love-of-guns-via-instagram-photo/
  15. The interesting thing about this piece is the degree of inside information. Given everything that has happened over the last several weeks, all of the useful information has been from non-local sources, while all of the tabloid pieces have been TBN and the like. Anyone else get the feeling that the locals have bitten the hand that feeds one too many times, and some of their testiness is a reflection of their dwindling access? You could put Marrone's "blowup (hardly)" in the context of one final shot across the bow.
  16. I just saw Jerry Sullivan crying like a little schoolgirl after Mario gave him an atomic wedgie as coach Marrone pointed and laughed!! Who's the drama king now, BEEOTCH!!
  17. That's too bad. Haynesworth and Suh were looking forward to endorsement deals.
  18. Am I missing something? Are there people trying to answer this seriously? And... are there other people who are actually somehow bothered by it? Oy Vey!
  19. So, since '94, my Bills #32 jersey seems to have lost its mojo... think I'll start rocking the Patriots #81 for a while. Maybe kill two birds with one stone. Sorry. Poor choice of idioms.
  20. People must have loved you when "The Sixth Sense" came out, huh?
  21. Less than 35% of TBD calling for his job head job head job at the end of the season. (We are not that angry of a mob, are we?)
  22. When did TG change his headshot?
  23. My take by description of the event without the benefit of seeing it, most likely thing is it's a day to day sprain. Likely to heal quickly, but can't practice on it and risk further injury. Kolb probably knew it the moment it happened, and threw his helmet in disgust because the praise he's given EJ over the last few days is not lip service. He knows any advantage he has over Manuel because of his experience is tenuous. Kolb, by reports, had his best day of practice yesterday, and any momentum that he he'd gained is now probably lost. I'm sure he realizes he is not the favorite in this close QB competition, and regardless of what he says, I'm sure it's weighing on him. If it was something he could practice through without risk of further injury, I'd hope someone in his situation would work through it. If not, there is no actual competition.
  24. Maybe Astro IS your dad. I know... right? Mind. Blown.
