  1. Takeo Spikes and Donte Whitner
  2. so do we know what was said between owners and coaches?
  3. I still think Phillip Rivers is mediocre
  4. I guess this free online content is not such a great business model
  5. Feeling your pain. Westie booze and pills will eventually kill you. Don't go out this way. There is a lot of love in the world
  6. fascinating case. Wondering if any related chatter made its way to WNY. I found the investigative work terrible by all levels of law enforcement. There was never any closure on what was in that Astro van belonging to Rothstein.
  7. I'm very surprised this didn't get referenced more often
  8. I grew up in western Canada watching the Seahawks with Chuck as HC. Those were great teams
  9. there were so many bad decisions during the drought...asking for one is like asking which raindrop got you wet during a rainstorm
  10. I didn't become a Bills fan until adulthood (cue your maturity insults here) and I didn't really pay attention to the teams inner workings until I became a season ticket holder (2003). The hiring of Chan Gailey begat a mild depression. There were so many other better candidates out there. It looked like Chan was hired for the sole reason that he didn't present a threat to the status quo at OBD. The hiring of beloved Marv Levy as GM was an Al Davis move - an admission that the game had passed Ralph by and that only a name from the glory years could bring us back. Jauron's firing of his OC one week before the start of one of his seasons only amplified the clown show state of affairs at the time. Allowing Jauron to over ride our scouting department and select Maybin over other more worthy players was another sign of deep organizational incompetence and disunity. The selection of CJ Spiller wasn't as bad as Maybin but was the equivalent of taking a long snapper at #1. The continual trotting out of Fitzpatrick as an NFL starting QB was profoundly insulting to any fan not incapacitated by alcohol. The mishandling of Jason Peters and Marshawn Lynch reinforced our image as the farm team for big market teams. Especially that we got a bag of Doritos in exchange for each. The signing of Mario Williams was exciting but only served to reinforce our having given up any hope of building a legitimate football culture and instead become a country club for the overpaid and undermotivated. If we can't build a team, let's buy one! Signing TO was the triumph of marketing over roster management. Rex Ryan's hire was more proof that our front office was a group of naifs capable of being had by a huckster after one more big payday.
  11. let's hope we handle this situation better than we did Peters
  12. Now we know why SI is headed for the historical trashbin like Time. TT is doing in Cleveland what McCarron is doing here - parlaying an audition into a better job somewhere else. If he doesn't he will become Fitz 2.0 and amass a great jersey collection along the way. Personally I expect TT to do well under Jackson (who I also wanted over Wrecks). Mayfield should have to earn his job just like Allen will have to .
  13. I hear you're No Saint either
  14. he's a minority owner of the Steelers and will have to divest
  15. The Patriot hater in me wants to believe the worst but I think us guys need to circle the wagons when it comes to unfounded accusations
  16. maybe the Ryan brothers can smash a statue of Russ Brandon
