as much as I don't care when they pile on the Bills, I don't much care when the give props to them either.
The only thing I care about from 'sports writers' is seeing them eat crow.
all through my life, people always told me, 'If you don't rush into things, you won't do them very well'. I'm a firm believe in this philosophy. Trying the 1-2 turn around has worked so well for the Bills the past ten years or so, I definitely think it's a winning strategy compared to patience.
Eagles signed a Steak Sandwhich to be an Assistant Coach. 5 years/$6.99
One of the best moves of the offseason. Even better than this Ronnie Brown thing.
so you expect him to continually be paying attention to you and that after 40 minutes you could no longer stand that he had not paid attention to you? If you're interested, I know someone you can talk to you in a safe place. He can help.
People are depressed. Life is hard. They have a crummy boss. They aren't paid well enough despite being invaluable to their company1 They want a football team to cure their depression. The Bills aren't able to do that and this makes people very negative about them.
That is a great observation. Of course, we already know why this player left. It was that he was overweight, out of shape, and the team felt he could not provide value at his position.
What leads you to believe that a ten year vet can do that? Obviously, not with the Vikings.
This also seems to imply that because the guy is older and over 30 that him being out of shape and unable to perform is somehow better than a younger guy being out of shape. It's much more difficult to keep your body performing post 30.
He may see the field again, but the question is, is it worth it for him to be there?
You've already had one NFL team decide that Demarcus Love has higher value than McKinney.
What part of he got cut for not being healthy got missed here?
Amituanai, Conan
Huntley, Rod
Isom, Byron
Johnson, Charlie
Kooistra, Scott
Love, DeMarcus
The Vikings feel these guys would all do a better job.
I understand it's tempting to go bargain shopping on Donte, but do you really want a guy who has nearly twittered himself out of the league? He's a good player if the scope of his duties are narrow. However, this is *NOT* a guy you want players to take after..his lack of mental fortitude is his biggest flaw and not a poison you want in the locker room.
It is not ok to sulk and mope because fans say mean things about you on the internet.
If the Bills had picked up prior to this thread, the same people lauding McKinnie would be the ones talking about how is old, out of shape and over the hill and how it is another awful decision.
This is the simplistic thinking. You have to take stock of where the Bills are...and it's not a competitor. Why would you sign a high priced free agent who is on their 2nd or 3rd contract now? So you can maybe squeak out to 8-8? Value is what keeps the top teams at the top. The Bills have had very poor value players.
Also, keep in mind the 'Best Available' at a position doesn't always mean 'great' at that position.
It amazes me that people who continually express that they believe the Bills are a bottom feeder and quite possibly think they Bills are the worst team in the league also somehow feel they are only a 'player or two away' at the same time. The Bills need a complete overhaul. As much as it may make you tingle in your naughty places when you look at Asomugha...does he win the Bills any more games? I doubt it.
The Bills need to establish a system and stability to bring the overall base level of team talent to a higher level. If we go in Madden terms, having a whole team at 85 is better than having a team of 70s with a couple 99s.
That is not relevant for this season.
