No, it doesn't, but....

Alright, we'll give 'em Gates for D'Brickashaw Ferguson.

I won't be there, but I'll be loud anyway. Maybe the person who has my tickets for that game will be loud. I know the people in my section (if they show up) will be.

Awesome news, Johnathan. I did play on the freshman team, then got to play some JV after that (our freshman season was only about 6 or 7 games). Then, I got called up to the varsity team, but only to ride the pine as a frosh (started the last 3 years). I know it isn't easy to go right to the varsity, and I applaud your son for being able to do it. I hope he's the one w/ the offers soon.

To be fair now, the Pats' TEs are pretty good and underutilized. Now, the WRs are overrated. Patten? Where is he now? Givens? Decent. Branch? Good, but not in the tier of guys like Harrison, Owens, Moss, and Fitzgerald.

The same Adidas that now owns Reebok????

...or Calvin Johnson.

I haven't seen anything out of these guys yet for THIS SEASON. We stunk up the joint last year, and the year before (yeah, we were 9-7, but got smacked back to reality by the 3rd team of the Stillers), and the year before, etc. That's over w/. This is a new year under a new coach in a new system. If they turn out to suck, then I'm sure everyone here will have @ 'em. What annoys me is the "guilty until proven innocent" attitude many here seem to have. That, to me, is the difference between being a realist about the Bills and being a disciple of the Randy Quaid character from Major League.

Atlanta "shipped' Favre off to Green Bay.

Oops! Back to our regularly scheduled program of: Losman Sucks Holcomb Sucks Levy Sucks Jauron Sucks Ralph Sucks The Bills Suck Whitner Was A Reach, Volumes I-VIII McCargo Was A Reach, Volumes I-IV Who's Your Favorite Bills Player? Take your pick.

It's not homerism to say that Jerry Rice sucks as an broadcast announcer. If you have Sirius, give him a listen and you'll see.

I'd hope beyond hope-again-that the Bills would consider addressing their lines. By trading down, drafing a stud tackle like Levi Brown of Penn State, and picking up an extra pick or more, they could begin to do just that. Then again, I've been saying something similar to that for years and it never gets done. Well, there was the drafting of Mike Williams...

Oh, I'd definitely put Patrick Ramsey on that list. It's not like Washington drafted a QB in the first round after taking Ramsey, or sign a veteran free agent to put over him, either.

C'mon Randy, let's hear some of your first rate heckling: "He wants the righty! The Vile thing!"

Yeah. He was the young version of Pete Clemenza in The Godfather, Part II.

When does Riggins get back? Or, is Rice his replacement? I sure hope not. Riggins isn't great, but I mind him a lot less than I do Rice. Of course, they really need for Shannon Sharpe and Cris Carter to return.

How sad. I liked the part in When Harry Met Sally when he was so happy over the wagon wheel table. Funny stuff.

Thanks to Schein, I've discovered that our first round picks are actually related: Donte Whitner-Reach, and John McCargo-Reach.

While you're @ it, give 'em Shaun Alexander to run the ball, Walter Jones to anchor a rock solid offensive line, and Mike Holmgren to not only believe in him enough to trade for him, but to stick w/ him when he's not doing well and continue to coach him up to where he's ready. Not much to ask for @ all.

Jerry Rice (and maybe even erry Rice) is proof that just because a person is a great football player, it doesn't necessarily mean they are great broadcast announcers. I just can't listen to him stumble through his ANALysis of QBs (they all "have to mature, develop, blah blah blah...") or his far too frequent mispronouncing of players' names. Maybe it's a San Fran thing? After all, Randy Cross is annoying and Ronnie Lott was perhaps the worst broadcaster of all, and that includes Eric Dickerson ("Al?") and TMEP.

Isn't that what everyone wants? Thin is in, right? Isn't that the reason women like Courtney Cox and Jennifer Connelly basically ruin their bodies so that they can look like stick figures too?

Will do, Paul. Once I set it up, you can check the league's website for the information.

I can't watch that show. It's annoying to me, except for Riali's smarta** remarks @ times. It must really have been unbearable back before Riali when Max Kellerman, host of the Fox Sports PTI wannabe show "I, Max", was the show's host.

Smith is a very knowledgeable NFL beat writer and I do think he did a good job w/ his summary of the Bills.

I'm in. I hope I'm able to be there for the draft, since it's during the day. I know I couldn't participate in Yahoo! drafts from work due to a firewall.
