  1. But every other country always sends their pros, always have, always will.  Why shouldn't we?

    Where were all the professional athletes on the 1980 US hockey team when we won the gold medal? I could give a rats a$$ what the other countries do. That's what made 1980 so special and will go down as one of the ALL-TIME great moments in sports.

  2. Why do people feel the need to post these topics here and not the PPP board? 

     

    What is wrong with the PPP board?

    Maybe the PPP regulars are on a membership recruitment drive, so they post some of their drivel here, hoping to find some suckers to come to the dark side of TBD. Maybe they can bring in Goldie & Mike who are long gone from their Channel 17 begging days to help. <_<

  3. And if PayPal was not the only way to pay there probably would be more contributors.

     

    Maybe someone with a business could take credit card payments, deduct the fee and pass the rest onto SDS?

    If you want to pay by check, send SDS a PM and he will reply back with the address to send it to.

  4. Just me, but I would play the entire first team offense for at least a half, maybe into the 3rd quarter. It's a brand new offense and I'd like to see some success from them. I'd also like to see them try to get Evans more involved. I'm hoping the problem isn't that Evans is not getting open or running incorrect routes. As far as the 4th preseason game, one or two series(10-15 plays total) and then out. I want them to hit the field on opening day a finely tuned machine.

  5. Let's assume JP is out the full 12 weeks.  That would, conservatively, put him back at full practice around November 15th.  That means there are still 7 games left.  And depending on the Bills record/situation going into the last 3 weeks, JP could get in some playing time.

     

    If they put him on IR, he can't practice with the team at all.  If they leave him active, at lest he can be in on all of the meetings, film sessions and working out to some extent. 

     

    Also, Zolman is destined for the practice squad... so why not waive him anyway, put him on the practice squad and go with Bledsoe, Travis, and Losman on the roster.  This way, at least if Bledsoe or Brown went down, they could pull Zolman from the practice squad because no other team is going to sign him to their active roster.

     

    So I say don't put JP on the IR...

    If the 8-12 week timeframe for recovery is accurate, I agree, don't put him on IR. Best case scenario, he would be ready to practice by week 5 or 6.

  6. If I had to hazzard a guess, I would think a majority of the folks here feel like I do. What is done is done. Regardless of how it happened. Lets focus on the positive of what we have now instead of crying in our beer.

    I agree about focusing on the positive, but I don't agree with making up ridiculous reasons for why this injury is OK.

  7. This is what I have read here...

     

    -He was our 3rd stringer and all he was going to do was hold the clipboard this year anyways.

     

    -He got taught a lesson. Now hopefully he will stop this running around.

     

    -Now there won't be anyone yelling for JP the first time DB starts to stink it up.

     

    -It was accidental contact.

     

    etc.......

     

     

    Here is my take on it. JP will be taking over next year. TD didn't make the trade he did, to watch JP sit on the bench for 2+ years. IF this season starts to go south, he may even see some action this year. I wanted him ready to go and he just lost out on the part of the preseason where he would have seen the majority of game snaps.

     

    He broke his leg and what is done is done, but why does there have to be justification(like noted above) for why somebody breaking their leg is a good thing??
