  1. Brad smith was responsible for the kickoff mishap last week against the Cowboys where instead of catching the shorter kick he didn't even look up and ran past it to make a block. That play of the game gave the cowboys some serious momentum. Brad smith is done, and we don't miss him. /thread

  2. Teams miss on first round OL too, we can't expect to get a starter with every pick. I want to give him one more year of Nfl workouts and training camp before we start throwing around the "bust" word. Personally I feel like we are having better drafts recently than in previous years even after missing on picks like manuel and kuandjo.

    I'd like to see some penalty analytics. Seriously, it does seem like the Bills penalties...the 50/50 calls... get called alot against Buffalo when it's a game changing situation or a big yardage situation. I mean don't let everything go on both O-lines then all of a sudden call a "ticky tack" holding on a 20 yard run to wipe out a converted 2nd and 9 situation. Call the obvious stuff, I have no problem with that. Call the game consistently on both sides for goodness sakes. I mean the guy who head butted the helmet-less Lee Smith in Denver....if that's a Bills defender doing that it's an obvious 15 yarder! There's no dount in my mind that would be called against Buffalo. The refs subliminally do have favorites during games. Its human nature.

    I agree with all of this. I am the first to admit we are 7-6 because of our incapable offense not because of the refereeing. It just seems this year we are getting screwed even more so than normal.

  4. A lot of people who eat, breathe and live nfl football like myself do not think the refs are out to screw the Bills. However, there is a strong argument that the nfl and the media favor the most popular teams with the quarterbacks every one loves to see play. The pats and broncos may have more penalties overall but the timing of penalties is more important than the total number. I am not a conspiracy theorist at all but I am starting to think refs have an influence on the game intentionally. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that when the pats play the broncos or green bay plays seattle in the playoffs these games will generate massive more amounts of viewers and ultimately money.

  5. There is no question right now our guards are a big weakness. I've never felt this good about a Bills team since the 1999 season though. Imagine if in the next couple years through the draft and free agency we add a couple stud guards, a better tight end so chandler can be very productive as a TE #2, a young qb, and more young depth at other positions we will be stacked!!!

    You do know that website is run by lawyers, don't you? I guess they succeeded with you - making you scared and likely to sue if bitten. In addition, for every pit bull bite or attack, there is another by another breed you never hear about. A pit bull attacks someone...front page news or good reading on a sensationalist website. A lab attacks someone...you'll never hear about it.

     

    Plus, there's a staggering amount of scientific studies that have shown pit bulls are no more aggressive than any other breed of dog, leading to both the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior (AVSAB) and the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) to issue a position statement against Breed Specific Legislation.

     

    The AVMA statement can be seen here, which is excellent literature for educating the public:

    The AVMA is hardly a biased source of facts.

     

    Here is a report from the American Temperment Test Society:

    Go to American Pit Bull Terrier and Anerican Staffordshire Terrier. Their rates of aggression are no different than most breeds - less than average aggression.

     

    Here is a very recent study by the University of Bristol in the UK that surveyed 14,000 dog owners. Breed was not found to be a predictor of aggression:

    Great post, I can tell you are a pit bull lover like myself. Personally I think pitbulls, labs and German shepherds are the best dogs out there and like you said pitbulls just get the worst rep.

    My dog has 8 nipples

    Numbers are fun.

    This made me crack up. Anyone else think of the movie 23 with Jim Carey in it when reading the OP?
