  1. I am originally from Southeastern Massachusetts and I now live in Central New Jersey. I think both markets are FAR superior to WGR. I have to say that (as much as I hate the Pats) WEEI in Boston is a great station. To outsiders they may seem arrogant or smug about their teams, but if you look at the landscape of Boston sports the last ten years or so there has certainly been enough success to justify it a bit. They are a very successful station and they have a great relationship with the local teams. New York isn't a bad market either. I hate the Yankees, and the Jets obviously but the shows down here on 660 are pretty entertaining (Boomer, Francesa, etc.) and even 1050 is a cut above tolerable at times. (unless it's Cowherd, and Mike and Mike are marginal at best) In comparison I listen to WGR on my pilgrimages to Buffalo, and online at times during the week and it just seems like amateur hour in a BIG way. Whenever Sullivan is a guest it's usually pretty cringe-worthy. But again, like the guys before me have said, if you want to hear sports talk about the Bills and the Sabres, they are the only game around. It's sad that such a great sports town has to deal with such mediocrity.
  2. Couldn't have said it better myself. I love Fitzy and the he plays with that Blue-Collar grit that us Bills fans love. I honestly hope he has a long career with this team. HOWEVER, we need to draft a true franchise QB next year. It just has to happen. Then Fitzy can spend the year grooming the kid....
  3. I'll be there brother and I'll be partying with you all weekend as well Kid
  4. John Clayton boils my blood. He always seems to be talking out his rear. And I am sorry the way he stares into the camera after making his point seems really creepy to me. On the other side of the coin, the one TV broadcaster I can't stand is Phil Simms, ESPECIALLY when he calls Patriot games. His love affair with Tom Brady is just plain embarrassing...
  5. I really like this post Biscuit, I really do. As much as last week sucked, what did we really expect this season? We need to be looking for growth, and we need to understand that this team has been horribly mismanaged for the better part of ten years, and you just can't turn that around overnight. People need to come back off the ledge and understand that there is work that needs to be done here. It's gonna take time. As much as that sucks to say after ten miserable years, it's true.
  6. I could NEVER stop rooting for the Bills as long as they are in existence...NEVER. I've been emotionally invested in this team since I was nine years old. I LOVE this football team. I love the fanbase, I love WNY (even though I am from MA), tailgating at the Ralph, etc. I had some friends who grew up rooting for the Bills with me in MA, and switched their allegiances when Bledsoe went down and Boy Wonder started winning Super Bowls for them. I didn't understand it then, and I don't understand it now. How can you feel a part of something like that when you jumped ship just as things started to go well? It's strange to me. Take this gentleman here...how can you look back on Bart Starr, or even the Brett Farve era Packers with any pride? They were never your team until recently! That's not your history...I look back on Jim Kelly, Andre Reed, Thurman, and Bruce with pride because as a young boy I lived and died with that team. What I DO understand about our friend here is him loving football so much that he decided to root for the Bills when the Browns moved. That's understandable. I have come to the same conclusion myself. If/when the Bills move, I have decided that my love for the game is so intense that I will probably root for someone else. (Ironically, it will most likely be Cleveland because they are right down Lake Erie, similar Die-Hard fanbase, won't be bandwagon-jumping cause the Browns are awful too, etc.) But you can bet your a$$ that if someone ever put a team back in Buffalo that I would go right back to where it all started. That's what I don't understand, why didn't you just go back to rooting for the Browns and keep the Bills as a second team?
  7. LOL...oh man that's hilarious. I feel your pain! (I did love Flutie and Bledsoe though, for better or worse)
  8. Bills seek huge upset Green Bay has better players Fvck the damn Dolphins I am Trent Edwards I cant find my receivers will checkdown to Lynch +1
  9. God Bless Ice Bowl, thanks for coming over with the well wishes. You guys have a great squad, I love Aaron Rodgers...wish he was ours Would not mind seeing you guys go all the way this year. I've always said the hardcore, cold weather, dome-less football teams (Bills, Packers, Browns, Bears, etc.) need to stick together against the Miamis, Dallases and Jacksonvilles of the league. Screw them. Go Bills!!!
  10. I watched both videos and I can honestly say that I believe in these guys. Like they keep trying to say, it's going to take time. We can't hold them responsible for the last ten years. After all, 2/3 of the players are leftovers from past regimes. I believe that once they have the players they want and the system in place, that this duo is going to at least get us back to respectability, and eventually the playoffs.
  11. To me it seemed like the topic of conversation at the time was injury. I am not so sure Chan was praising his play so much as he was commenting on how pleased he was that he battled through the game while not being completely healthy. That's just how it came across to me...
  12. Absolutely the 2002 snow game, my very FIRST game at the Ralph. My favorite Bledsoe game...loved when Jimbo was shown on the Jumbo-Tron waiving his towel!!!
  13. Here's hoping you are right brother! Tonight is a big indication of whether this will be a new beginning or the same old same. GO BILLS!!!
  14. I am with you bro, one of your best posts!
  15. I think the most telling part of the post was that he "never seen the Bills play live." Once you've been to the Ralph and gotten the full experience of being a Bills fan tailgating with other Bills fans there is no turning back. The wings, the Stadium, the community, Pinto Ron...You could watch a 1000 games on TV and it doesn't even come close. I am originally from MA and I now live in Jersey-grew up a HUGE Bills fan in enemy territory. But when I actually started traveling to Buffalo to see them...everything changed. Hell, I didn't even have a hockey team growing up and now I love the Sabres because my Bills brethren converted me. Nothing will ever sway me from being a Bills fan...NOTHING. I watched the History of the Buffalo Bills on DVD for the first time the other night, and I'm damn proud to be a Bills fan...win, lose, or draw. I didn't necessarily want Chan Gailey either, but now that he is the coach I want him to succeed more than anything... GO BILLS!!!!!
  16. I honestly think this is one of the best (if not the best) posts concerning this entire situation. The analogy about dating all those "pretty girls" is spot on. Nice job, man, way to be a voice of reason amongst all this madness.
  17. I caught the tail end of the comment, but apparently Dungy stated that had he taken the job as President of FO in Seattle that Leslie Frazier would have been his choice for HC hands down. Did anyone see the full segment? Anyway, I just thought that it was interesting that Dungy thinks so highly of him.
