  1. i concur. i stop reading after one paragraph. i don't see how people can't make their points in one paragraph.

     

    Two things.

    First, "concur" is my favorite word of all time.

    Second, I think its cool you are member # 10,000.

    That is all. Carry on.

  2. Did anybody see me at the Rockies game last night in the second row down the first base line? Brad Hawpe made a catch literally right in front of me. I was wearing a plaid shirt as per usual. Soccer sucks. Diving is ghea. The shootout to determine the 2006 Cup was Dave Matthews-level ghea. How can you end such a grueling tournament that way? I'm bored, just trying to stir the pot. Go Bills!

     

    Now there was NO NEED to bring Dave Matthews into this!!!

     

    :wallbash:

  3. Yeah, this I dont understand at all. 7-9, 7-9, 6-10, especially when you have Jauron and co. as coaches, and are as injury plagued as we were, hardly equals worst team in the league. I too would bet anything I own that we are not, and will not be, the worst team in the league this year. Where these guys get some of this stuff is beyond me. I mean below the Rams? And the Bucs? Hopefully these guys on this team read these things and it puts a chip on their shoulders, but I just dont understand how we can be considered that bad in someones eyes. Ignorant, to say the least.

  4. I don't want to argue with you guys.

     

    But I do want to point out that I thought Hamdan looked as good as any of our QBs in last year's preseason and that also, his walking away from football doesn't mean he wouldn't have made it in the CFL.

     

    I think the back story might be that Gibran has an offer to do some broadcasting somewhere and he was smart enough to recognize that opportunity was knocking.

     

    edit: Also there are rumors that British Petroleum has been recruiting Hamdan to work as an Oil Engineer to plug the Gulf leak and that Israel approached him about doing some policy making in the wake of the botched interception of the Humanitarian Flotilla incident.

     

    I agree Gibran looked OK last year in preseason. But you dont just quit football when you have a chance to start, even in the CFL. If he thought he wouldnt be holding a clipboard again, he would be playing IMO.

     

    Interesting points at the end, and if either of those turn out to be true, I might be inclined to believe he thought of doing something more important, but time will tell i guess.

  5. DonInBuffalo actually posted this in another thread but I thought it might deserve its own thread, rather than getting lost in the other one.

     

    As Donte Whitner tweeted yesterday, Marshawn is in the building and Gaughan elaborates on that…very interesting situation.

     

    Also mention of Shawn Nelson, whom many of us have been wondering about.

    Was just about to post the same thing...

    at least hes showing his face...

  6. Just another player that shouldn't have had a roster spot in the NFL but did because Jauron was coach.

     

    Correct! He cant even make it in the CFL, yet he was on an NFL team last year, and lots of us- myself NOT included- wanted to see him start a game. I know our QB situation was bleak, but again...Hamdan cant even make it in the CFL.

  7. my apologies on stevensville.

     

    but ya know what's curious: banana boy never told where he's from so that he could enlighten us on what this captivating hometown of his is like on a tuesday night, where the fountains perennially flow with gold, and the bartenders always have lovely stories of how the workers always stay downtown and never go home and never get too drunk and tip 40 percent, and where cherubs sing from gleaming spires of glass that reflect in the sun to form rainbow prisms on the always perfectly manicured park lawns, where dogs don't pooh, and kids run wild and free;

     

    it's a place where the newspapers -- all 17 of them -- have staffs of 613 reporters, each of whom works day and night to satisify these lustful cravings for baseball and football and even hockey, even if the sabres are out of the playoffs. but then again, in a place like this, the home team is never out of the playoffs, because they always win the champoinship, and all the minor league baseball teams -- from single A on up to quintessential A -- play before packed houses, and they never play a road game, and everyone catches a foul ball and goes home happy.

     

    it's a wonder why he'd ever leave.

    Funny and well written. For me to think of something clever like this would take me quite a while. You can tell someones a professional writer!! :rolleyes:

  8. Recently went over the border to a tuesday night Bisons game. Maybe a hundred in the stands.

    Free tickets where i ate dinner. Talked to the bartender, who said about the down-town workers: "they all go home. This place is dead."

     

    No newspaper coverage of baseball or football. (Hey, the Sabres are out of it now.)

     

    Hey Buffalo, things are going on. hire some reporters.

     

    Ummmm

  9. I was just reading the posts on here about Flutie - how he was the fourth best QB in our 50 years of history, and there were responses along the lines, "how pathetic is it that we've only had three or four good QB's in 50 years!"

    When I look at our QB situation in that context - of 50 years of ineptitude - and I wonder why we don't just go out next year and find a star QB at all costs! Trade whatever we've got to trade to get the guy who we're convinced is capable of being a star. Bring in a few guys - baltimore's second stringer comes to mind - and maybe draft another QB - if it takes bringing in three or four QB's to find the right one, then do it.

    It'd be great to be able to get a QB, LT, maybe a WR and OLB or TE in one offseason. But, WHEN WE'VE BEEN AS BAD AS WE'VE BEEN AT BRINGING IN A FRANCHISE QB, IT'S TIME TO FOCUS SOLELY ON FINDING ONE.

    I can see someone saying, "o.k., sure, we need to focus on QB, but how do we go about it, then?" My response to that would be draft the best one in the draft - just get the best one, regardless of what we've got to trade to get him - and then maybe bring in a young QB with potential, and if we can draft another one whose supposed to be good, then do it - who cares if people say, why draft another one when they just grabbed one?

    I don't think it'd be a waste to devote an offseason - to make solving the QB problem the top priority - our next offseason.

     

    I think the Bills will get one of the top QBs we all know about next year (Locker, Luck and Mallett), even if one of our guys does well this year. I think taking the Carolina Panthers route and getting a few good potential young guys would be a wise move.

  10. 81 Easley, Marcus WR 6-2 207 22 R Connecticut

    83 Evans, Lee WR 5-10 197 29 7 Wisconsin

    84 Hardy, James WR 6-5 220 24 2 Indiana15 Huggins, Felton WR 6-2 186 27 1 Southeastern Louisia

    17 Jackson, Chad WR 6-1 223 25 3 Florida

    19 Jones, Donald WR 6-0 214 22 R Youngstown State

    11 Parrish, Roscoe WR 5-9 178 27 6 Miami

    18 Roosevelt, Naaman WR 6-0 189 R UB

     

    And, FWIW, I think Roscoe is gonna be in the package deal for Gaither.

    I wonder who else is on this list of his patients. Nothing really surprises me with this anymore however.

     

    I think everyone who is a fan of any sport, has to accept that PED use is likely everywhere at this point. All these guys probably do it, and frankly if I was a pro athlete, and I felt everyone else was a step ahead of me, I would probably do it too.

     

    It will be interesting to see the names that follow this case, but I think its commonplace now to use these drugs. This guy might be the NFLs Jose Canseco...

  12. That is a fact and history continually repeats itself. The top teams keep most of their superstars..Indy will retire a Colt and Brady will spend several years on the Patriots unless he gets plagued by injuries. Good teams keep their stars, the Bills like the Bisons is a good place to watch some young players develop and if they become a desirable

    player move on to a "real" NFL Franchise!!!! I hate to say all this, but it's the way it is and I'm a diehard supporter of da

    Bills regardless of the product they put on the field every year. But, I'm not going to call a pile of sh*t a pile of Gold !!!!! :thumbsup:

     

    Soo....Indy will retire a colt huh? Interesting assessment there Tony... :thumbsup:

  13. What gives you the idea that the Bills are even considering this?

     

    Why do you even think were in the running? I doubt we have any interest in him. My gut tells me if we werent interested in Jimmy Clausen in the 2nd rd of the draft that were not interested in possibly the biggest bust in the history of the league. I also feel like u wasted 20 seconds of my life reading this, and another two minutes typing this response to ur nothingness. :beer:
