  1. Gmen - I live 25 minutes from Giants Stadium and after 17 years I was finally able to root for the giants in last year's superbowl against the dreaded patsys. If the Bills leave Buffalo this is what I'm left with - can't do the jets - that's like marrying your ex-wife's sister.
  2. They're BOTH garbage - we don't really have a legit qb right now.
  3. The better question right now is - WHO THE F&^$ CARES?
  4. "It does hurt. Fans should be pissed. We just lost to one of the worst teams in the league. " At FRIGGIN' HOME ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!! Unbelieveable.
  5. Why are the webmasters locking entry to the 'fire Jauron' threads? Add my vote to the list of fire his a%$ tonight!
  6. It has taken me a loooooooong time to get to this point, but I just might be done. There will always be an attachment to this team (been a fan for more than 40 years) for me, but actively following them might be in my past. I like the game of football and it is pretty easy to be a casual fan. People all over the country know me as the Bills fan - but, let's face it, this is a losing organization with NO fight left and Ralph won't spend the money to get a top name football official to guide this team. Just look at the list of coaches and GMs we've had since Wade Phillips. I was almost offended at the national press for refusing to respect this team after the first four wins - I guess the joke was on us after all.
  7. Aye - 3 points against the friggin SF 49ers? Are you kidding me? Please GET RID OF THIS GUY! I can't stand it anymore.
  8. The insidious thing about this disease (being a fan of the Bills) is that you can't get away from it. I have felt like you, momentarily, many times over the years because you just get tired of having your hopes dashed - it is emotionally draining. However, I guarantee that you'll be back in that bar ordering that hamburger and beer really soon - you just can't get away from it. don_of_manhattan
  9. I don't think he played scared. In fact, he might have been too comfortable in the pocket. On the couple of sacks I saw, he had held the ball for a long time. Royal should learn to hold on to the ball a little better as well. This was not Edwards' best effort.
  10. You gotta love YOUTH! I would have taken me 6 months, minimum, to recover from that injury.
  11. I was born in 1956 and and lived about 15 blocks from the Rockpile as a kid. After one of the AFC Championship games against KC in '64 or '65, an older guy walked through our neighborhood with his head down and told us "there were a lot of very unhappy people at the stadium and to stay away from there." Also, several years later, when the Bills drafted OJ, I remember everyone in the neighborhood listening to the first preseason game on their front porches - there was a LOT of excitement about him being in Buffalo. don_of_manhattan
  12. The Titans have beaten Jax, Cin, Houston and Min (combined standings of 3-12); the Bills have beaten Seattle, Jax, Raiders and Rams (combined standings of 4-11). What is Chris Carter talking about?
  13. Actually, it was my fault - I was supposed to have a beer opened at the start of the game and finish it before the end of the first quarter - we've won when I did that. Next week I will make sure that happens.
  14. Solomon was fine - thought his insight was on point and he was very complimentary of the Bills - I think he is just fine. People have different accents - I think his diction is fine - I understood everything he said.
  15. Agreed - can Hardy step up, hopefully in the slot. Kickoff returns???? What will we do there?
  16. If Trent goes out and JP moves the team, they will have confidence in him as well. This can't be news to JP - he lost his starting job to the guy for crying out loud. Plus, JP moved the ball with team pretty well in preseason.
  17. I'm sure the vast majority of them are transplants. I live in Jersey and used to go to a bar before DTV and all of the Bills fans I ran into (about 20 over a several year period) were from Buffalo except one. However, for the strangest reason, there is a pretty large contingent of Bills fans on Staten Island (go figure). I was at a Bills/jests game about 13 years ago and ran into a lady wearing a Bills jersey who had been slugged (their fans are maybe worse than ours) and she was from Staten Island and was telling me about the Bills fans over there.
  18. Are you kidding me - is it always like that. I'm in Jersey, I gotta come over and catch a game with this group!
  19. I'm glad to hear that - you really couldn't tell on TV, they had the crowd noise on mute.
  20. Funny! As excited as I am right now, I have to agree with you.
  21. Look, as long as I finish a beer during the first quarter and sit on the left side of my sofa - we'll win - it's just that simple.
