  1. Yet you support the biggest douchebag of all.
  2. Bell
  3. The only Republican I ever considered voting for. RIP.
  4. Did you know that Raquel Welch was in the running to play Mary-anne? Imagine how different Gilligan's Island would have been.
  5. Holy ****! I found it...I'm not crazy. Thanks to the great Steve Cichon...if you remember those Braves, you will really enjoy this! http://blog.buffalostories.com/remembering-memorial-auditorium-and-the-nba-buffalo-braves-randy-smith-sings-the-the-bob-mcadoo-song/
  6. I haven't read every response in this thread, so forgive me if this has already been said...I agree with what you are saying in regards to Taskers' take on Peterman. I also noticed, after the first preseason game, that Murphy was really adamant that he was all in on Allen starting week 1, verses Baltimore. It seemed almost too contrived...if you have listened to the John Murphy Show/One Bills Live, you would expect Murphy to be the one saying "they should work Allen in slowly"...and Taskers' gushing over Peterman has been a little over the top...though, I do think Peterman has played pretty well...it just seemed that there has been a conscious attempt on that radio show, since Tasker joined, to help Murphy shake his "stick in the mud" persona, which really was pronounced when Donald Jones was the co-host. Each of them having a different opinion on who should start, seems to be an attempt to create more "lively" discussions on the QB situation...which takes up about 86% of the shows content. It would be pretty boring (or more boring some would argue) if they both agreed.
  7. Personally, I think when they hired Rex, he became the de-facto GM. Rex seemed to get everything he wanted, and it was a disaster. For these clowns to complain about the personnel situation while they were here (collecting way too much money) is just bull ****. The rosters that the clown brothers had to work with were hardly devoid of talent. Not saying Whaley was perfect, but he never got to hire his own coach. Marrone, for all his faults, was okay, but Rex Ryan was a horrible hire.
  8. Your new here, I think. This is not the place to opine....
  9. Sure, it would be nice if we weren't getting gashed in the running game...but it is pre-season. Take a deep breath...
  10. I agree, the new APP sucks. Too many ads, breaking in durning the middle of the broadcast. The best way to listen, with no commericals, is to access the archive on either the APP or your comptuer. Those work alright.
  11. The NFL doesn't allow that. You can listen to the pre-game and postgame show, but not the actual game, on GR55 streaming. Oddly, you can listen to Sabres games on GR streaming (though I am sure the NHL has restrictions too), but not Bills games.
  12. I have a good friend who is a die-hard Browns fan. There is some sentiment amongst some Browns fans, that Coleman was mis-used in Cleveland. They say the strength of his game was playing the slot, but he didn't get to do it very often.
  13. I thought Shaq stood out last night...not sure why so many fans root for our guys to fail.
  14. I have to admit, it is a little embarrassing...but kinda great at the same time. Personally, I wouldn't do it at this point in my life...but some of my fondest Bills memories revolve around under-age drinking at Rich Stadium in the early 80's.
  15. We have entered the "breaking bad" phase.
  16. I remember going to a Sabres game in the mid-80s. Tom Barasso was the Sabres goalie. He was having a particularly bad stretch of games...fans at the Aud were booing him, and chanting "asso, asso". He had lashed out at fans in the press in some way, can't remember what he said...but he was on the fan **** list. I remember you could just tell the guy was being rattled by the crowd hostility. Then, at a break in the action, they announced it was his birthday...it was a few days after mine...we were the same age. I just remember thinking how absurd it was that the moods of an entire fan base rested on the shoulders of a 21 year old kid.
  17. I think the Bills were outcoached in that game, in the sense that they played right into the Giants defensive gameplan, and never really adjusted to it. The Giants in the Super Bowl, were hell bent on taking Reed and Lofton out of the game....as a result, Thurman had room to do his thing. The Bills/Kelly didn't recognize that they would have likely fared better if they ran the ball more than they did. It was like the Bills were too slow to see what was happening in front of them. The fact that the game came down to the final play is just a testament, in my opinion, as to how good the Bills team really was...they let a less talented Giants team dictate the game.
  18. I always wanted them to make it to the Super Bowl...honeslty, the only one I felt they might not win was #27, the first loss to the Cowboys, Their offensive line was the most dominatnt unit on either team, and, IMO, were possible the best offinsive line I have seen in my 40 something years of watching football. I live in Texas, so I saw them all season, and they just destroyed teams...after two Super Bowl losses, my feeling was that, as great as some of our individual players were on defense, they couldn't dominate a really strong offensive line like the Cowboys had. I will say, I do remember at one point, sitting at the bar, watching a late regular season win against the Colts (or some bottom feeder team at that time) during that last Super Bowl season, and just thinking..."man, I know they can crush all these crummy teams...I wish we could just fast forward to the Super Bowl, becuase that is the only win that means anything at this point". I was getting kind of bored by all the blowouts of ****ty teams...I would trade places now of course! But regular season wins seemed almost meainingless. Like Marv, and others said at the end of their careers, "you start to feel the losses much more than the wins." It many have been the same for a lot of fans. But, I remember just saying to people "c'mon, the law of averages says they have to win one of these damn games!"
  19. Rediculous. Why was it Andre Reeds fault, "period"? Why not Darryl Talley, and the 3 other Bills who whiffed on tackles as Mark Ingram killed them on 3rd &22, and helped the Giants, essentially hold the ball for the entire 3rd quarter...or Jim for throwing a meaningless pass for 2 yards, to Keith McKellar, which wasted about 8 seconds on the clock during the final drive? Or hell, why not Keith McKellar for not having the prescense of mind to "drop" that same pass, inistead of making a great effort for the shoe-string catch? Of mayve blame Jim for getting a little pass-happy on that final drive, when Thurman was having an MVP type game. Blaming Reed for the loss,, "period" is absurd. The Giants/Bellechiks' defense game plan in 25 was to punish the Bills WR's. To their credit, they did...look at the boxscore for that game. Reed caught 8 passes for 62 yards....Lofton caught 1 pass for 61 yeards. McKellar 2 for 11. The Giants were determined to shut down the Bills potent passing game...and they did for the most part. Plenty of mistakes made that day...Andre Reed was far from the only reason they lost.
  20. The investigation appears to have fantastic legs... '
  21. It's only the lunatic fringe of the Republican party that is supporting this move to impeach Rosenstein.
