  1. Bills will stay at pick 9 and draft either Evans, Ebron, Matthews, or Lewan. BOOK IT!
  2. Agreed. And since OT/WR are the deepest in this draft take one of each of them in the 2nd and 3rd. If Evans falls you run up to the podium though.
  3. I thought we were on Detriot for Thanksgiving and at home on Monday night for GB? Were those just rumors?
  4. OMG!!!!! When was the last time Bills were on MNF game?
  5. Cautiously optimistic. Who is to say that owner has long term intentions of moving the team from Buffalo. Would be nice if they said it would guarentee the future of the team in Buffalo.
  6. Not if you include Toronto which is only an hour drive away and should be included in its market segment because only Buffalo can target that market unless the NFL actually opens a stadium in Canada which I doubt they want to happen. If you include Toronto/Lower Ontario/WNY/Rochester our market segment is actually top 10 maybe higher. Cities within an hour drive of Buffalo. Stats from 2011: Canada: Toronto CMA 5,583,064 Hamilton CMA 721,053 Kitchener CMA 477,160 St. Catharines–Niagara CMA 392,184 US: Erie County, population 950,265 Monroe County, population 735,343 Niagara County, population 219,846 Chautauqua County, population 139,750 Ontario County, population 100,224 Wayne County, population 93,609 Cattaraugus County, population 83,955 Livingston County, population 64,328 Genesee County, population 60,370 Allegany County, population 49,927 Orleans County, population 44,171 Wyoming County, population 43,424 Canada: 7.1 million people US: 2.6 million people Our true market segmant is roughly around 10 milion people. Maybe moving the stadium to the City of Buffalo and or Niagara Falls would help grab the interest of those in nearby Canada? In the long run a successful team in itself will gather the needed fans from over the border to become Bills fans. 14 years without playoffs is certainly not helping.
  7. Sabres are not Elite. Reread my post. The Sabres will be getting ELITE prospects in the next two drafts. They will be a powerhouse in 3-5 years. The Bills are always in limbo. To good for a top pick/to bad for the playoffs. Rebuild>Retool Also the Sabres are guarenteed a top 2 pick this year, and possibly the first overall pick. Next year we have 3 1st rounders in the deepest draft in a decade. Isles/Sabres pick are both likely top 5-10 picks. We also have the 2nd best prospect pool in the NHL currently. Pegula has renovated the entire arena and is building another building that will house 2 ice rinks/hotel across the street. Here are some stats to back up my post. No.1 Overall picks at forward over the last twenty years have averaged .94 pts per game. Of the 14 forwards draft No. 1. 4 have averaged a pt a game or better (Kovie, Ovie, Sid and Stamkos). Another another 3 (Kane, Thornton and Tavares) are at .9 or better. Only Yakupov and Stefan averaged less then .75 pts per game. Bottomline, you get an elite scoring forward if you draft No. 1 No. 2 overall picks at forward aren't far behind, but there is a drop off. These 13 forwards average .8 pts per game with only Malkin and Spezza averaging a pt per game or better. Heatley and Eric Staal average .9 pts per game or better. All 13 forwards drafted in the last 20 years in the 2nd slot are currently in the NHL. http://www.hockeysfuture.com/team-rankings/
  8. The Sabres future is actually brighter now than ever in history. We are finally rebuilding and not just retooling. We will soon have ELITE players on this team for the first time since Hasek and the French Connection. The Bills on the other hand are at the worst point in the history of its franchise IMO.
  9. Love seeing the Renos! But this is just a temporary solution to a bigger problem. BTW would you guys like to see a new stadium in OP or in the city of Buffalo or some other location in the long run?
  10. .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................
  11. Passed away peacefully in his home with his wife and daughters by his side. R.I.P.
  12. Thanks for everything you have done for the Buffalo Bills Mr. Wilson. You will be truly missed. R.I.P. =(
  13. What is the most popular pick at number 9 so far realistically speaking?
  14. Wow you guys are disciplined. I have fast food once every two weeks on average.
  15. Personal trainer here. All things should be done with balance and not excess. There is nothing wrong with eating cake, fried foods, candy, soda, etc...As long as you do it in moderation. Obviously these items are not good for your body but you only live once. You want to enjoy the things that taste good in life. Saturated fats taste great, enjoy them once in awhile...Just don't make them a regular part of your daily diet.
  16. If this guy signs, do you still think there is a chance we go OT in the 1st/2nd round?
  17. Here is the correct answer unfortunately.
  18. That's unfortunate, we really needed to get him signed. The sides were so close, yet couldn't come together on a deal? =/
  19. What was the deal offered to Byrd from the Bills? They honestly didn't want to pay 8 million?
  20. I'm getting more and more on the Mike Evans train as well. Solid Mock.
  21. What compensatory draft picks do the bills get when Byrd leaves?
  22. Nope, if a gay man is allowed in a locker room full of men. Than a straight man should be allowed in a locker room with females. Prove to me how it's not a double standard. It would be considered "creepy" if a straight man was allowed into a female locker room. Well what if I am in there to just change and get out and not stare at the others in the room. The same analogy can be applied both ways. I am done with this discussion as it cannot be proved otherwise, back to work. Have a good day all. =)
  23. I agree, I would watch it.
  24. Yes, it is all I ask. Just give me this one point.
  25. It's much different in America than Europe. Everything you stated simply would not take place in America. Great point in the bolded though. I am just saying personally for me it would be uncomfortable in a locker room with a gay guy next to me. I still could care less if someone is gay or not.
