Every parent's worst nightmare. I heard her audio driving in my car and completely broke down.
-
one of my favorite things at the dawn of the internet was realizing i could finally read Larry Fleser again after years in exile. The first columnist to really influence my take on sports. A pros pro, enjoy the good life.

I disagree... Johnny Unitas ALWAYS did it with class, and even though he had to sit and watch Super Bowl III in agony on the bench for most of that game, he took his lumps and moved on. To the end, Johnny Unitas represented the NFL extremely well and personally in my opinion is still the greatest QB in NFL history despite not playing in the protect-the-QB-at-all-costs, pass happy league we have today.
All Joe Namath did was become a flamboyant icon and is now consistently embarrassing the team he played for and acting like a drunken fool.
We need more Unitases and less Namaths. You never saw 'crew cut' Jack Kemp act like that either, to reference the Bills in all of this.
I didn't mean for that to come off as a knock on Johnny U, loved him. I just happened to love Namath's style and swagger, he was refreshing in a conservative, low-flash world of Unitas, Kemp, Starr, etc.
-
I watched and even though I read the recent Namath biography (a good read, FYI) seeing the story really reminded me of what a huge icon he was in my youth. Simply put, Namath was the coolest football player ever -- took the game from Johnny U crew cuts and black high tops to the modern world.

so just to clarify - a radio station in Virginia, was the first to break this. OK...
Buddy would trade Fred before failing to extend him. He knows Fred is worth at least a 3rd.
Exactly -- there are too many embedded local reporters who would have that story before some dude in Virginia, not to mention the high profile insiders at ESPN, etc.

Please be true

How insane is it that we let Jason Peters go? You can't win when you let elite LT's leave town
-
Career O-line coach = more running game = Jets are over Sanchez, as if we didn't already know that

Said JJ Hunsecker…
You get a gold star -- I love this dirty town...
Tony Dungy?
Maybe not a prick, but a bestselling author and TV studio host certainly points the needle toward narcissist
-
I am shocked by all the love and forgiveness for this mediocrity. You know who else was a nice guy? Not a single head coach with a Superbowl ring. This a business for narcissist pricks with a one track mind.
-
Some men are better coordinators than head coaches. Mularkey is one of those men.
And coming of that terrible Giants game you could make a case he's not even a great coordinator -- this is an incredibly low sperm count coach signing guaranteed to fit into the new ownership's master plan to relocate the Jags
-
Meanwhile, we just lost our wide receiver coach -- that's a real loss. You can make a case the WR's were the best developed position on our roster.
-
Agreed on Easley -- if he can stay healthy, he flashed explosive potential. In a scenario where he stretches the secondary, and we find a way to keep Stevie, that frees the budget to draft/throw crazy money at pass rushers
-
Yeah, it comes with the territory, I guess. Oh to see the likes of another Andre Reed.
-
Both are children. As are Dwayne Bowe and Desean Jackson, the other top WR free agents. Regardless, Jackson won't sign in Buffalo, we just don't land the guys who are in demand.
Robert Meachem? Or would he be insane to leave that Saints offense?
-
We are three defensive starters away from being a wild card caliber team, provided we handle our free agents wisely.
-
Well I'm in that group that thinks $7.5 million per is a bargain price.
I'll be quite pissed off if we lose the only legit starting NFL WR on this team by undervaluing him.
And don't forget we got the last two seasons of great production at a super cheap price
-
That's a moot point.
It's not semantics at this juncture.
The discussion is how much he should get paid.
He's apparently asking $7.5 million which is not "dominant #1 WR" money.
The Bills are apparently offering $5.5 million.
The discussion is what the number should be… which number is fairer considering his productivity, etc.
I see your point -- this is how we end up replacing quality starters with bargain priced third round picks. He and Fitz click, keep them together and toss Stevie some Dough
-
I am inclined to think Stevie doesn't get big money offers as a free agent. Has he really distinguished himself as a dominant #1 WR? A good one, yes, but think back to Eric Moulds in his prime. I'm all for the Bills paying their guys, I really am, but in this case they may benefit from letting this one test the market.
-
The Bills never pay top dollar for elite players, if they did we would have enjoyed ten years of Nate Clements and Antoine Winfield as our CB tandem. They save their money to overpay average veterans like Kelsay and Fitz, or high value bargains like George Wilson and Kyle Williams.
Can't wait to see how they operate when teams are forced to spend to the cap -- I predict a 70 million dollar extension for Tashard Choice.
-
I dont know what "serious" character flaws he has. I remember him getting that DUI and getting into a few times with Lebron James but he did also do this.......
Edwards is on the decline -- pass. now to what really matters: where did you find that avatar picture? It made me laugh Til coffee shot out my nose
-
None, but my four year old son got a Bills nightlight from his Aunt - which I am tempted to borrow to help me through the night when I awaken in a cold sweat thinking about the Bills extending the deal to play more games in toronto.
-
Sorry, but this is one of the most overrated coordinators in the business. Rob got the Raider D to play hard when the team was awful, but since then he is only above average. The Ryan brothers have become a dog and pony show -- high fury, low substance.
-
93 years old and still perennially 30 million bucks under the cap -- you can't take it with you, you miserable old fart.

Blake is also corrupt, serving up student-athletes to an agent for cash. Rex relatives and cronies abound, results remain dubious.
