  1. Instead of buying all kinds of pink crap and pinkwashing the field they should use the money for direct subsidies of mammograms for women without health insurance. That would actually make a difference. Think before you pink. http://thinkbeforeyoupink.org/
  2. I thought this thread would be about our owner, general manager, and coach sitting down for soup and sandwiches at a 10am luncheon.
  3. We can probably forgive Gailey for not having watched the Bills-Falcons game in week 16, and/or not remembering that Brohm got the start.
  4. You forgot "fundamentals" "discipline" and "tough." The only cliche he didn't bring out was "one game at a time."
  5. "no superstars people recognize, we're going to get the best people for our system" = marv levy's "character guys" all over again. Either way, it boils down to cheap players. JV again!
  6. i can see why ralph and nix liked this guy. and that's not a good thing.
  7. this is painful. embarrassing. one country bumpkin after another on national tv.
  8. 6-10 is the new normal. Ralph dies next offseason, throwing the front office into a further mess, disrupting offseason prep/contracts/draft. 3-13 in 2011-12, then bye bye. I'm usually more optimistic, but the last week has been brutal. Lets go Sabres.
  9. Read past the first part and get to the discussion of Gailey's former teams (no gtech BCS games, no playoff wins for 'boys) and his analysis of how we ended up here (league-wide knowledge that RW is a meddler, his impending death = uncertainty for team) you'll see why people agree. Perhaps the best point he makes is that the organization has been and continues to invite irrelevance ---becoming the Raiders of the East) by fearing change, fresh blood, outside opinions, and decentralized control. Seems spot on to me.
  10. If he's playing at St. Joe's, it's too bad he wasn't here a few years ago when Steve Tasker's son was playing at St. Francis.
  11. Yeah, and we beat both teams set to meet in the AFC championship game. Ha! Crazy year.
  12. I thought the same thing, but I really want to see a Favre/Manning Super Bowl showdown.
  13. ESPN2 just interviewed TO at the Australian Open. He's there to support his friend Andy Roddick. They had to close the center court roof because it was raining and he made a little dig at tennis players for being a little soft, saying he has to play in the elements. They asked him if he'd play rugby without pads and he basically said hell no! Mentioned the Bills a few times and the outdoor playing conditions in Buffalo. http://twitter.com/terrellowens/status/7890418856 PS - I realize this is really scraping the bottom of the barrel for Bills news, but at least it isn't about flight patterns by coaches' houses!
  14. His firing was the biggest mistake in SU football history right after playing indoors.
  15. How many interceptions did the Sanchise throw in that game? 5, or was it 6? And we took them to overtime. We won, but it was under extraordinary circumstances. Hardly a ringing endorsement for our Bills, unless next year's opposing QBs are consistently going to play like Brady played today.
  16. One hopes the reporter will be reprimanded or sent down to writing obits until he or she can get their act together.
  17. It's hard to know anyone when most of your friends died over the last twenty years. Seriously, Ralph needs to be out of football operations.
  18. Flutie fan here. If the Curse of the Flute is real, why does Rob Johnson have a Super Bowl ring?
  19. Ok, the plot thickens. Now this is getting weird, and not looking good for Marshawn.
  20. King and X's views began to converge toward the end of King's life. When King became more radical and threatened to unite not only African Americans, but working class whites, he was taken out. Not a big difference between the two toward the end of King's life.
  21. Again... his career head coaching record is 33-31. With the Pats he won the AFC East in 1997 and went to the wild card game in 1998. How is this "never succeeding" in the NFL? I just don't get it. Is his record comparable to Bill Parcells, Tony Dungy, or Bellicheat? No. But being over .500 career, winning your division, and making consecutive trips to the playoffs is something.
