  1. Without evening reading the replies on the first page, Page 2 has me thinking that there are some very angry people on here. So let me be clear: I am not hoping for anyone to die. I'm not wishing for anyone to die. I'm not saying "wouldn't it be great if...." (you get the idea, I hope). I'm simply curious about what would happen to a team (and staff) worth hundreds of millions of dollars if the owner, with no publicly named successor, were to pass away in the middle of a season. I have nothing but the utmost respect for Wilson; anyone who can take a massive financial gamble for what they're passionate about and stick to their guns for over 50 years is a-ok in my book. Truthfully, as bad as it would probably be from a purely sports-related perspective, I'd love to see the Bills remain under Wilson family ownership. But we've been told time and time again that it won't happen, so...eh.
  2. Forgive me if this topic has actually been covered (and covered, and covered), but what would happen if RW's age finally caught up with him in mid-season? Would ownership default to someone in the organization for the duration of the season (if so, who)? Would the team be sold off before the season was over, or would all of that stuff wait until the Super Bowl?
  3. Rochester to some Amish town 90 minutes west of Philly, with a stopover five hours west of Dallas. Don't ask.
  4. Week 1 9/9: Buffalo Bills at New York - L Week 2 9/16 Kansas City Chiefs at Buffalo Bills - L Week 3 9/23: Buffalo Bills at Cleveland Browns - L Week 4 9/30: New England Patriots at Buffalo Bills - L Week 5 10/07: Buffalo Bills at San Francisco 49ers - L Week 6 10/14: Buffalo Bills at Arizona Cardinals - L Week 7 10/21: Tennessee Titans at Buffalo Bills - L Week 8: BYE Week 9: 11/04 Buffalo Bills at Houston Texans - L Week 10: 11/11 Buffalo Bills at New England Patriots - L Week 11: 11/15 (Thurs) Miami Dolphins at Buffalo Bills - L Week 12: 11/25 Buffalo Bills at Indianapolis Colts - L Week 13: 12/02 Jacksonville Jaguars at Buffalo Bills - L Week 14: 12/09 St. Louis Rams at Buffalo Bills - L Week 15: 12/16 Seattle Seahawks at Buffalo Bills - L Week 16: 12/23 Buffalo Bills at Miami Dolphins - L Week 17: 12/30 New York Jets at Buffalo Bills - L Here's the thing, folks: I always lose bets. So calling an 0-16 Bills season is one of the best things that can happen to their record. But if I'm right, at least I can run up a $750 bar tab to forget about it all.
  5. Step one: buy Kelsay jersey on ebay. Step two: put a Williams nameplate on it. Step three: ignore the weird looks you get until Kelsay retires, then be the first of your friends to have Mario's new number.
  6. The jinx is in! I blame the entire season and its inevitable dismays on this post alone. Seriously though, I like it better last year - when we were supposed to kind of suck, like usual, and then sat at the top of the NFL in week three and made national headlines as a true surprise - not an expected turnaround. Although, I'd like it to end a bit better...
  7. If only he'd listened to more of Marshawn. "Marshawn, what's your favorite part of practice?" "Stretchin mah groinz!" I swear, this Bills-era interview exists. If anyone can dig it up, I'd love to revisit it. actually...found it! Right around the 7:00 mark.
  8. According to Arizona, life begins two weeks before inception. So...old news?
  9. Couldn't you just keep the list sorted by school, and put a 2x/3x/4x next to the school name? After all, those numbers only really seem to indicate the number of trips to a particular campus we visited - not who we were looking at.
  10. Yes, it's a conspiracy. Now can we please just get drunk, eat some wings, and watch these government hired athletes beat the **** out of each other every Sunday?
  11. Surely someone on Craigslist is selling a reasonably priced sarcasm detector in working condition.
  12. Yeah. Probably the first year that he hits free agency and signs with someone else, though
  13. No way Redundant is still on the board at 10. At best we get Cautious-Optimism.
  14. YES. Although John "It's not a tumor" Digiorgio is a close second. ...what, no one else used that one?
  15. Why post if you're just going to answer your own questions? If you can't stop 'em, just throw more touchdowns than them!
  16. In the post-Super Bowl era, I would watch it because I wasn't ready for football to be done. When they moved it, I decided to record it, since I wasn't going to be around to watch it while it was playing live. As I found myself fast-forwarding through most of it, I finally came to terms with what my friends had been telling me for years: it's not a game. It's a joke. Scrap it. I won't miss it.
  17. Why risk a hit on Brady? Good point. Maybe you should: 1) Take a knee 2) Put in a different QB 3) Hand it off to your least important back 4) Put in the guy who's job it is to punt the ball There are probably more reasons, but those are the ones that quickly come to mind. The move - under the circumstances - reeks of pure arrogance.
  18. I haven't heard anyone talk about Brady in weeks. I have, however, heard Tebow's name on a daily basis. Needless to say, I'm enjoying this game so far.
  19. I voted for Tommy Boy. Why? 1) The media hype around Tebow. Can't stand it. Want it gone. Or at least, reduced. 2) After finally squeezing out a three point win in week 3, we got crushed by the Pats with nearly 50 unanswered points in the last game. They're clearly better than us. The Broncos? We spanked them 40-14! How can you be okay with seeing that team advance in the playoffs, when you know we could trounce them? 3) I like to throw rocks at beehives.
  20. Fine. But you realize that, no matter where in the round it is, there will still be a first round draft of some point. What difference does it make if, for example, if our bust is picked 9th overall or 15th overall? A bust is a bust. I, for one, will continue to hope against hope and blindly believe that, one of these years, our players will remain healthy and play enough games together to really click and get back into the habit of winning games.
  21. Nope. Buffalo will win this one for our future European owners in Christmas fashion, 25-12. That's right...three TDs, a field goal, and a safety. We'll let the Broncos kick in a few field goals for good taste.
  22. Sorry, I stopped reading after the first three letters. I always read it as "I'm 8 years old."
  23. Sorry, but I don't think 5-11 is going to get us a top 5 pick.
  24. Checking in. Prediction? We'd definitely lose to the Patriots. And by definitely, I mean probably. But I certainly wasn't optimistic. Well, I'm admitting it: I was wrong. Let's go, Buffalo.
