bump -- need more votes!

Glad to see that some of you finally got the gist of my post.

I've been thinking about this <cheap> for a couple of weeks, but I can't find any opinions on the topic <cheap>. It seems as though the Bills should <cheap> be able to get some good coaches in here, but maybe Ralph is <cheap> cheap and doesn't want to pay them enough? I don't know; I could really use some <cheap> insight here.

Bills | Team interviews Lynn
Fri, 27 Jan 2006 13:08:01 -0800
WGR550.com reports former Baltimore Ravens secondary coach Johnnie Lynn is in Buffalo interviewing for the Buffalo Bills defensive coordinator position. Lynn had been the Ravens secondary coach the past two seasons.

Interesting.

...because from the sound of all you gloom-and-doomers, if "the great" Jim Bates does not accept the Bills' offer to become DC, it will just be a bunch of players out there running around with no rhyme or reason like the Keystone Kops.
Come to think of it, that's sort of what it was like this past season.
I must be incredibly naive, because I would still be willing to bet that even if the sky falls and the earth caves in beneath our feet (translation -- "the great" Jim Bates declines the DC offer), there are probably still a couple of guys out there who could probably do a half decent job of running a defense for an NFL team.
I really hope some of you don't go and hang yourselves over these "worrisome" developments.
Geesh.

I haven't seen more than a couple of their games b/c I haven't subscribed to Center Ice, but it's fun looking at the box scores each morning. Can't wait to see them live against the Canes in a couple of weeks.
So tell me, why again did USA Hockey not want Ryan Miller?

Because Wyche is a great football mind with a lot of experience, a good guy by all accounts and the kind of smart, reliable, positive influence that's not easy to find and that you want helping to guide your organization.
The Bills organization just took yet another large step backwards in an offseason in which only a couple steps forward could have made them a very good team.
Sorry, I just don't see the gloom and doom in all of this. Do we really even know what Wyche added to the staff, or who even made the decision that he will not be back? The offense, and quarterbacking in general, was pretty poor the last two seasons. Was he helping at all with playcalling? If so, that's hardly a ringing endorsement. I like Sam -- he's got a great personality and has obviously enjoyed much success in the league over the years -- but let's not overestimate his worth to the staff. He was obviously limited in what he could and could not do.
Bottom line -- if Sam was able to impart some of his experience to JP in helping him learn how to handle being a pro QB, that's great. I don't view his loss to the staff as either a positive or a negative at this point.

You obviously have not lived in Houston. Maybe national perception has it that its better then Buffalo, but nothing could be further from the truth. The weather has all the advantages of a swamp, traffic is the equal of LA's mobile parking lot, and the city itself has all the charm of a strip mall. Actually, slightly less charm then a strip mall... And BTW, I'm being kind in case there are any Houstonians reading this.
I've lived all across this country, and still I have a hard time figuring out why actual Bills fans continue to dis the fine city of Buffalo. Yea, hang all the politicians and cut the dang taxes in half for sure, but the city itself is far more liveable then most.
they have better lookin' broads, though...

Dude, fans telling a team how to run itself is one thing. Telling them what uniforms they like is completely another. Remember -- we BUY the things.
Nice avatar, BTW. Who is she?
-
Enough with talk of things like coaches and the draft. Let's get a petition together with the fans' preference for the Bills' future uniforms. I'll continue to bump this along throughout the offseason, or perhaps it can be pinned. If there is a strong consensus for one particular uniform, maybe the Bills will listen.

The last I heard from Takeo (not me personally...on Sirius or something) his rehab was going great and he expected to be ready for training camp. Let's hope that's accurate.

Are you reading something different than I am?
He's Jim Mora's radio partner, not Marv's.
Edit: Now I see that in the original post. There's nothing about that in the bio. Dummy me.

WOO HOO, I just ran through a wall!! When does the season start?

FYI, here's Mike's bio from the radio station's site:
--------------------
Mike Lamb, who frequently is honored for his football commentary, is one of the original hosts hired for the Fox Sports Radio Network. In that capacity he hosts the #1 most syndicated program for Fox Radio, "Game Time" with former Saints and Colts head coach Jim Mora. Their show is heard on 200 stations nationwide.
Mike's knack for finding the humorous angle in big games while observing it's intricacies, has landed him such coveted assignments as the Rose Bowl, the Gator Bowl, the Las Vegas Bowl, the Arena Bowl, and the Senior Bowl.
He earned the Southern California Sports Broadcasters Association's award for "Best Analyst" in 1996 and was named the Southland's top analyst for all sports in 1997 and 1998 by the Los Angeles Daily News.
Lamb was a colorful letterman at Southern Cal (1979-83), where he started at Tackle for the Trojans his senior season. Mike played with two Heisman trophy winners (Charles White and Marcus Allen), along with numerous NFL Hall of Famers like Anthony Munoz, Ronnie Lott, and Bruce Matthews just to name a few. He graduated from USC 1984 with a bachelors degree in Urban Planning.
He signed as a free agent with the Los Angeles Raiders in 1984 and later began his broadcasting career with the club's broadcast team serving as the host of the pre- and post-game call in shows with Jim Plunkett of Raiders Super Bowl fame.
Mike and his wife Sandy have two children, Logan and Maddie.
----------------------
My point in posting this is that Mr. Lamb appears to have no built-in bias towards the Bills, Marv Levy, or Dick Jauron. I believe this lends more credence to his commentary in that respect.

Just curious. Haven't seen anything lately.

I know that the TV "purists" love to point out that this is a ripoff of the BBC show, but who cares? This is the funniest crap on TV without a doubt. Give me a night of bad Idol auditions, a couple of hours of 24, and a few episodes of The Office, and I only need to get up from the couch to refill my wine glass or grab another beer.
Bates not worth huge contract
