  1. I'd consider it. Colt isn't going to be a franchise type of QB, but to me, he seems like an ideal backup. He's smart, he's a winner and just seems like the type of guy I wouldn't mind plugging in for a few weeks or whatever if Fitz got hurt. I'm scared to death about the backup we have now.
  2. God forbid someone cuts into their "food draft" by forcing Schopp to say "I'm good, thanks". That would be bad radio. I have spoken to people who have attended multiple functions with Schopp, and they say he has the same rude, elitist attitude off the air as he has on the air. So, it's not all about not wanting to waste precious seconds of top notch sports wisdom, it's about this guy really just is a jerk. I feel sorry for him.
  3. To be honest, I think everyone on the list belongs in the Hall except maybe Kevin Greene and Cortez Kennedy. It always amazes me how tough it is to get into the Footbaal Hall, yet with any of the other sports it seems like every fringe hall of famer is in.
  4. I listen to a lot of SIRIUS XM and find Adam Schein on NFL Radio Funny. Chris Mad Dog Russo is funny. Scott Wetzel on Mad Dog Radio is hilarious. Steve Somers overnight on WFAN in NY is funny. There you go, I named a few that I think are more humorous than the GR guys.
  5. I don't listen to sports radio for humor necessarily. The problem with Bauch and other WGR personalities is that they are trying to be funny but aren't. This then becomes quite annoying. When Schopp and the Bulldog are bantering about some useless thing and Bauch pipes in with something he thinks is clever or witty, I wonder who in the world would actually laugh at it. Even more annoying is their little sound bytes, skits, etc. For example that "Willie Mays.... Micky Mantle" thing and the Panther are ridiculous attempts at humor. Nothing in radio is stupider though than when Schopp asks a question and the rest of the nitwits pretend they're on that game show and answer with, "Well Bob, I went with....".
  6. I'm glad others feel the same way about Greg Bauch as I do. I can't believe this guy moonlights as a comedian. I have never laughed at one friggin thing this guy piped in with, yet every time he says anything, Schopp giggles like a school girl. My problem with WGR is that there is not one on air personality that hase gone on record as saying that either Darcy Regier or Lindy Ruff should be fired. They're afraid to because of their relationship with the Sabres. If anyone thinks that they're going to objective now about the Bills, you're crazy. Not to mention, they do not have a single host that has enough football knowledge to break down a game.
  7. 7.5 mil per for 4/5 years is fine by me. Watching his routes against Revis convinced me he's a star. I believe he's genuine in his love for the Bills and the city of Buffalo. He wants to be here and be a part of this thing. He's a big name around the league. It all adds up to the fact that you have to pay the man!!!!
  8. Andre Branch from Clemson is a guy who has caught my eye. He looks like a pure speed pass rusher from the clips I've seen. Anybody have any info on him?
  9. It might cool down the local media a bit, but you're probably right they'll still kill the Bills all offseason. That's why I have Sirius XM NFL Radio I guess.
  10. I'll be watching. If the Billa could win this game, there will be great vibes going into the offseason. Ending the season by beating 2 playoff teams would br a great sign. The local media will lay off a bit and actually talk about the Bills in a positive light in the upcoming months.
  11. My guess is they let Bell go because they have Hairston behind him, but the way Bell controlled Dumerville last week, I'm not so sure this is the smart thing to do.
  12. I've been saying I'm going to stop listening to WGR for a long time. Unfortunately we don't have any other real options. It's a shame that were stuck with these hosts that don't really know anything about football X's and O's and clearly don't enjoy talking about football.
  13. Awesome book, I got that for Christmas last year! This year I got a ton if stuff that would have come in handy if there was one more home game. I got a fleece blanket, zubaz pants, and 2 hoodies.
  14. I was lucky enough to attend every game tis season, preseason and regular season. I had a lot of fun at the Bronco game. I love Tebow, but I admit I was chanting "Tebow Sucks" along with everyone else. There's nothing horrible about that. We're passionate fans and it felt good to stand there, having fun together and giving Tebow a warm Buffalo reception. Even my wife was chanting it!
  15. People tend to say that Freddy is a young 30 years old because his NFL career started so late. He still took a lot of shots in college and in the arena league. In fact, I think they play both sides of the ball in indoor football. So, I'm a bit concerned about how much more he has left. I love him, but the his shelf life won't be all that much longer IMO. I've been a supporter of CJ's from day one. I think he can handle the feature back role. If it came down to paying Freddy or Stevie, I'd have to want them to commit to Stevie.
