Well-Thought-Out CBA Negotiation Article
mattsox replied to thebandit27's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Couldn't be said any better. I don't think that either side realizes, that it's us the actually pays for this. If we don't care about professional football, then there is no NFL. There is no money made and no one cares about the players... I think us fans should boycott Week 1, once the NFL comes back out of this labor dispute. Maybe that will make them wake up and see things for what they really are. -
NFLPA tells players to boycott draft
mattsox replied to Johnny Hammersticks's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yes I do Care about this alot. Think about it for a minute everyone here reading this. You waited you're whole life to get to this point, and you have the former NFLPA telling you not to attend. To not hold your jersey up proudly at your accomplishment. Put yourself in the kids shoes. I'd say F them and the players who stand in their way. This is supposed to be their day. Not the existing players day. What a bunch of selfish bastards. Tom Brady, Mannings, whomever, get payed plenty, and their suing their respective teams. This is ridiculous and has really pissed me off as a fan if you can't tell by tone. How dare they... I don't see much good coming out of this unless one side humbles themselves to do so. Trust me, it's not like the NFL isn't paying these guys to play football. They pay them well. It's their job to go out and play whole heartedly for their respective teams. Players like Carson Palmer really piss me off. "I'll retire if I can't be traded" That really pisses me off now. This right of entitlement. I have no say in my job. It's either I show up or get fired. Carson Palmer gets paid to do a job. There are people out there right now who'd die to be in his shoes. If I was Paul Brown, I'd say fine, we can get someone else to play football, and you can sit there for the rest of your life then. But that looks bad on Paul Brown's part... If I was absolute ruler of the NFL, I'd get some players who want to play football and say the hell with NFLPA or all the existing players. What a bunch of ingrates, seriously... -
Anyone think the NFLPA messed up?
mattsox replied to Dragonborn10's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Sounds good to me. I'm sick of all this BS. The league has turned to ****, the product on the field has suffered. I honestly hope they have a good lengthy lock out. We got wars in the Middle east, Quakes in Japan and death of a living legend in Buffalo. Maybe they can all stop really think about what really matters in life, instead of thinking about dollars and cents. I don't give a crap if the league disbands. They got too big to fast and forgot what really matters most in life... -
Don't care for either. I only care about the NFL and my care has since dwindled as a fan, mostly due to the Bills stinking it up for over a decade now, and just how the game has become so stupid with all the player movement and ridiculous commercial breaks between play, I find myself numb to it. I really love football. I love the game. It's the ultimate team sport. But the NFL has just been guided by greed and getting the maximum dollar then actually caring about the fans. It's like they know what's best for us, instead of the fans saying, this is what we want. I think a lockout would be good. I don't care about arguments over Millions of dollars. There is so many other issues that are more important. Like the play of the game and how rules should be enforced. Everything matters to a degree, but the big picture seems to be clouded by owner and player greed. They're the rulers of it all...

Terry Pegula would be the NFL's third-richest owner
mattsox replied to Tortured Soul's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Pegula's not buying the Bills. Go get Golisano to do that. He'll make sure they break even You're heart needs to be in the sport. Pegula lives and breathes the Buffalo Sabres. He's all about hockey. His whole existence right now is to bring the Stanley Cup to Buffalo. He isn't going to buy the Bills. Buffalo needs a huge football fan Billionare to buy the Bills. Someone who loves the Bills as much as Pegula loves the Sabres. -
Nah, It's time to move forward. He's old as hell and ain't worth much at all.

If Fitzy gets injured this year, what will the Bills do?
mattsox replied to Tipster19's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Is Leinhert still available??? lol -
Is anyone else starting to feel the way I do about the NFL?
mattsox replied to Got_Wood's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Agreed. The commercials are killing the game. Greed is definately killing Football. I can't remember the last time I sat through an entire NFL Football game other than the Championship and Superbowl games. Other then 3 games out of an entire season. It's practically become unwatchable... Making fans pay full price for Preseason is another Joke. I say the owners should just eat the preseason game as a fan appreciation. WE THE FANS NEVER WANTED 18 GAME SCHEDULE. The OWNERS wanted to justify that so they can make FANS pay full price for tickets. The owners are ridiculous and the NFL has become a glorified circus. It's a side show, not a Football game anymore. -
Brandon Meriweather accused of shooting 2 men

Ooh they got him and Stroud now? OOOh I'm scrd -
Who was the guy with all the inside info last year?
mattsox replied to Deep2Moulds46's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Nolan Nawrocki. He's predicted the Bills first round draft pick correctly since 2006 with Whitner. Right now the inside is Patrick Peterson @ 3, but you gotta wait until he puts out his final Mock draft. -
What would upset you more?
mattsox replied to Canadian Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Agreed. This team has sooo many problems. I believe we'll draft Peterson if the 2 big DL are drafted first. I say build your OL and DL this season, then address QB Next year. Just get some journeymen to back up Fitz... I say go hard for Andrew Luck in 2012 to address the QB situation. -
What a douche! Yeah, all 32 teams are lining up to sign some washed up RB, what a joke...
-
They can talk to him all they want... They're gonna take Peterson regardless...
-
Nolan Nawrocki says we'd take him. He's been picking our drafting picks accurately since Whitner, so I say go with it...

18 week season instead of 18 game season
mattsox replied to billsfan89's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
That works too. It was the whole paying for Preseason game thing that got them into bringing it up. Better off to just leave it alone... -
if Buffalo is to sign one free agent
mattsox replied to frogger's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It can be realistic. The Bills just need to go hard after him. Who cares about 1st rounders... We can't draft any worth a damn anyways. I'll give them our next 10 For Peyton Manning... This team hasn't been build on our first rounders, it's the deeper picks that build your team anyways... -
I'm all for getting Luck. He's the real deal and worth his weight in gold. I'd get him here, whatever the cost is...

18 week season instead of 18 game season
mattsox replied to billsfan89's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I got the Fix, It's simple. Let the owners eat 2 Preseason games. Keep the 16 Regular season games and 4 Preseasons. Have it be a fan appreciation thing. The Owners pay for us fans. Fans get in for free. Simple. Makes the owners look less greedy and makes the fans happy and players happy. That's all that has to be done. I don't get what the big deal is... -
F Bag Goodell gave away the lightest punishment in NFL History for that, 1st rounder? Really? How about you forfeit the whole NFL Draft. Or give away your First rounder to your divisional opponents for the next 3 seasons??? That would be a better punishment and would stop this **** from happening to begin with. 1 first rounder doesn't mean anything anymore... Weak Godell, very Weak...

if Buffalo is to sign one free agent
mattsox replied to frogger's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Miller is a start. Buddy better be burning up the phone lines of UFAs if he wants this team to have any chance of getting better. -
Why not go after Randy Moss while we're at it

Pat Williams looking for a place to play
mattsox replied to Beerball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If he has ANYTHING left in the tank, I'd say bring him in. We need all the help on that line we can get... -
I agree about trading down and taking your chances next season on Luck. I don't want us to draft Newton for anything. I don't believe in 1 year wonders. I however don't think Buddy will trade down. I believe they will draft Peterson at 3. I also hope they address the trenches OL and DL. They both need alot of work. Mayock is good, but Nawrocki is better. He's guessed the Bills 1st rounder correctly since Whitner in 06. Wait till his final mock comes out, and that's the guy!

QBs drafted in the 2nd or 3rd round from 2000-2010
mattsox replied to Phlegm Alley's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I say get a journeyman in 2011, build the lines, keep Fitz safe, and address the QB position in 2012. -
Yeah, I'm betting big money this year on the Draft. Nawrocki is Automatic!
