  1. logan might just be legit. http://www.buffalosportsdaily.com/2010/01/...p-on-joe-logan/
  2. thanks for the heads up - i just called DTV customer service and told them that i needed to cancel the sunday ticket. "times are tough, you know what i mean?" their service agent says hold on, let me see what i can do for you. comes back and gives me the upcoming season for $149 instead of the $269 that i was slated to spend. then i say, "is that all in, including the superfan? if i'm going to renew, i would definitely need the games in HD". after a minute or so on hold, he comes back and says they'll throw in the superfan for free. 10 minute call saved me $220!
  3. i was just thinking about rootie's. back in the day they finished them on the grill with some franks and homemade BBQ sauce. hot damn!

  5. you are obviously missing my point. yes, willis could have shed a few more blocks. yes, he is a knucklehead. yes, it is not all on the line. but that is in the past. this upcoming season, playing for a long-term deal, with an improved offensive line, chances are quite good that willis can have a monster year and lift our offense into the upper echelon of the league. sure, we can get a low 2nd round pick for him this year. or . . . next year. the value of having a 2nd rounder in the fold one year earlier does not seem equal to the value willis can bring to the team this year.
  6. willis was a first day draft pick, and he hasn't been happy playing for the bills the last four years. while not a big fan of willis, i am a realist. i don't see our running back situation improving with brown/rhodes. i could deal with dillon as a short term solution, but wouldn't want him signed to a significant contract. i couldn't care less if willis despises the bills. maybe he'll unleash that anger on our opponents. if he pouts his way to a crappy season, it will cost him plenty of cash so i don't see it happening.
  7. we all agree that the line has sucked for a long time, so i think that the yards per carry is a bit misleading. as for the inflated head, that works to our advantage this year. his motivation in a contract year to prove he is the best RB in the league is the key reason to keep him around this season.
  8. there is currently no RB option available that compares to a highly motivated mcgahee. with the revamped line and millions of dollars at stake, if healthy, i don't see any reason to believe that he wouldn't reach 1400 yds. and, if he were to reach that number, we could easily franchise him and trade him for a second or third next year. or, we could keep him under the franchise tag in 2008. again, he would be highly motivated playing on a one-year contract. the "cancer" talk is overblown. while i think mcgahee is an idiot, he has talent that we can not afford to just fritter away. with the financial obstacles this team has, they need to squeeze every last bit of value out of their assets. taking advantage of the franchise tag is one way to do it. it's said that the bills feared clements holding out last preseason if we didn't waive our right to franchise him this year. that decision cost us a draft pick or two. after wandering in the desert for a decade, i'm happy to set realistic goals like playoffs rather than the super bowl for now. let's talk super bowl once we reach the playoffs.
  9. selling willis for 75 cents on the dollar is insane. we finally have a respectable-looking offensive line put together, and we're going to downgrade our running back situation because willis has too many illegitimate children and thinks we should move to toronto? quite simply, he is the best available option for this team right now. willis and rosenhaus are motivated by money more than anything else. i can guarantee that if willis plays this season without a contract, you will see him more motivated than ever. and who is really worried about him holding out? the bills hold all the cards in the end. i don't care if he takes a dump on the bills logo in the middle of the field - our best chance of making the playoffs this year is with willis motivated for the big contract next year.
