I'm done...this show has never been as good as it threatens to be...just terrible writing.
-
They've had other decent, not great teams since then...but they have always been reliant, completely on 3 or 3 guys. In all those years, they have never really been able to build a deep roster. I think LeBron is the best player in the game since Jordan (hot take, right?), but he isn't indefatigable. He has been suseptible to wearing out, when he doesn't have a strong supporting cast. I would probably never bet against him in the East, but he, and the Cavs, are beatable.

Should The Bills Let Richie Incognito Out Of His Contract
Buftex replied to BuffaloRush's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I agree with your point, he has played well for us, at a fairly bargain price. I could have seen him taking it as an insult. But he should not have a agreed to the re-structure a few weeks ago. The Bills would have then been forced to pay him the terms of his contract, or release him...he created this problem for himself. -
Except that anyone who can sit through two hours and remain in suspense does not value their time very well...you can find out the schedule for any team within 30 seconds of release, depending on how fast your computer is?

Fans are the same everywhere...they love their team when they win, hate them when they lose...we have a very impatient culture in general..in sports it is magnified, because final scores are definative (most of the time), and you are only as good as your last game. The notion of "good, educated fans" is nice, but not the reality any more.

I've been a Celtics fan since 1980...I am insane to think that this might be the most depth the Celtics have had in almost 40 years? I know there have been better teams, but these bench players are contributing regularly. Because of all the injuries to the front line players, they are getting more opportunities than they might have in the past, and they have been delivering more often than not. They have been really good on the road...normally, bench players struggle on the road. If Irving were in the lineup, and healthy, I would really like their chances at a finals appereance. Great win today...maybe I got my beer goggles on, but I am not counting them out....I think they beat Milwaukee in 7. Philly could be a tough matchup in the next round, but not impossible. You just never know...either way, I've had too much fun watching these guys this year, to count them out just yet. Brown and Tatum look like legit talents...for all the grief Ainge takes as a GM (even I didn't love him as a player!), I think he has done a very solid job on this roster. Future is bright if Irving comes back at full strength..add Hayward to the mix, and they could really be the new dominant team of the east.

I'd take Brown over OBJ, but you are right, he is good. Evans isn't as flashy as either, but he is a stud.
-
I think he is the second best receiver in the NFL, behind only Antonio Brown.

I don't think those are real...not that there is anything wrong with it! -
Murph + Tasker, new show "One Bills Live"
Buftex replied to K D's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Tasker really is pretty good, if you give him a chance. Hated him as a color analyst on CBS games, but he is good on the radio... Personally, I liked the idea of Jones...a younger guy, who has played in this era of Bills football. In Austin (where I live), Ricky Willaims has a weekly show during the football season...he has had guest co-hosts. Aaron Williams did a few shows with him...he was pretty good. Wouldn't have minded hearing him on the JMS...but I am good with Tasker too. He knows he leauge well...and he knows Buffalo. -
Murph + Tasker, new show "One Bills Live"
Buftex replied to K D's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It took a long time, but I think Donald Jones get better and better, and brought an edge to the show that it severly lacked when it was just Murphey. I also think Tasker is really good as a radio host, than as a tv broadcaster, in my opionion. Both Jones and Tasker helped bring out Murphey's personality quite a bit, over the last year. When it was just Murph, it was hard to listen to. I also think Tasker is pretty well connected in the modern NFL (becaue of his CBS work) it will improve the show. I don't think many NFL cities have a local radio show, year round, devoted to their team. There is a good reason for that...there just isn't that much to talk about sometimes. Honestly, I think Bills fans are being a little hard on the show...you don't have to listen every day, but take some comfort in the fact that it is there when you need a Bills fix. I live in Cowboys and Texans territory...they have nothing like this year round. -
Yeah...I feel your pain. I was fully expecting a long playoff run for the Celtics...now I will watch, just happy if they can pull out a series. They may be able to beat Milwaukee...maybe. Just such an abrupt end to what had been such a fun season. If it comes down to it, I can root for LeBron...but it doesn't excite near as much as a Celtics run might have.
-
Yeah, I know...was still holding out hope that he might be ready by the second round of the playoffs. I really have enjoyed watching them so much this year...just such a gut punch. I really thought they were a shoe-in for the ECF, at minimum...now, anything past the first round will be a real achievment. Sucks that the two guys who were supposed to be the cornerstones of this new era of Celtic basketball (Gordon and Irving) go down. Oh well, that is sports...no guarantees. I suppose I should take solace in the fact that Stevens has been able to develope a hell of a bench.

Welp! The dream was nice while it lasted... Kyrie Irving out for the playoffs... http://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nba/celtics-kyrie-irving-needs-knee-surgery-out-for-playoffs/ar-AAvvYzo?ocid=ientp

One of the first adult reactions to the Russian interference we have seen...it will be interesting to see how far daddy lets him take it...Bolton better keep in mind, he doesn't have the job just yet...FOX has other people who can do the job too!

Poor Jim. It almost sound as though he is going the Roger Ebert route, with his treatment.

Best QB since Jim Kelly *Poll*
Buftex replied to BrycePaup4ever's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Definitely not one of my favorite Bills of all time, but Flutie was/is the best QB of the post-Kelly era. -
What is your biggest Bills FA mistake
Buftex replied to BisonMan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You got it backwards on Maro... he had three elite level seasons, and then fell off the map in his 4th season...missed only one game in Buffalo. Do some of you even watch the games? 39 sacks in 3 years is hardly "not good".

What is your biggest Bills FA mistake
Buftex replied to BisonMan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Technically, they traded for him...it was before the days of true fee-agency in the NFL. He was only a Bill for about half a season, on maybe, the most gawd-awful teams they ever fielded. I had season tickets then...you know, Vinny actually moved the ball...but they just couldn't score. Trivia: he did throw Andre Reed his first TD pass! I liked Quinn Early. -
What is your biggest Bills FA mistake
Buftex replied to BisonMan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don't disagree on some of that...but he won more than he lost, and he, personally, made a lot of plays to win games. He wasn't so great in his third season...I just think he would be far, far down on any list of Bills "worst FA signings".
