  1. That moment when you both learn that the Bills have a player on the roster named Cap Capi and are releasing him.
  2. Star of Night Court found dead at age 65. http://variety.com/2018/tv/news/harry-anderson-night-court-dead-at-65-1202754949/
  3. That was a fun read, thanks. I often wonder when I read those types of posts, imagine if it was true, how long would it take before the guy with the inside source (in this case the District Manager of the guy tweeting) was cut off and defriended by his Bills source?
  4. I've heard of him. Get 'er done, Brandon.
  5. By that logic the Bills paying Star Lotulelei the kind of money they did is an indication that there's not a DT in the draft that is ready to play or may never be, right?
  6. I have a 2015 Hyundai genesis that I absolutely love. Like driving a cloud around everyday. Also, check out how this guy made a really cool modified school bus. http://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/classic-cars/the-magic-bus-a-cummins-swapped-modified-1941-chevrolet-school-bus/ar-AAvMlkx?ocid=ientp#image=AAvMnnR|13
  7. A hidden buffalo in the old Goat Head jerseys, who knew? http://buffalonews.com/2018/04/12/sabres-goat-head-jersey-had-hidden-buffalo-head/?utm_campaign=puma&utm_medium=social&utm_source=Facebook#link_time=1523553210
  8. There wouldn't be a cliff high enough for Bills fans to throw themselves off of if that were to happen.
  9. Lodish's 6 total is tied for the NFL record.
  10. On a related note: the kid's parents took him out for Mexican and he's now being called the next Dizzy Gillespie.
  11. Might as well go all in... 12 Quentin Nelson Notre Dame Sr OG 1 6-5 329 22 Isaiah Wynn Georgia Sr OG 2 6-2 302 53 Will Hernandez UTEP Sr OG 3 6-3 330 56 Braden Smith Auburn Sr OG 4 6-6 303 65 Wyatt Teller Va. Tech Sr OG 5 6-5 308 96 Taylor Hearn Clemson Jr OG 6 6-5 325 4th Rd Colby Gossett App. St. Sr OG 7 6-6 315 5th Rd Skyler Phillips Idaho St. Sr OG 8 6-2 315 6th Rd Sam Jones Arizona St. Jr OG
  12. A sad story, seems as if his life is unraveling after the death of his longtime wife. http://www.msn.com/en-us/movies/celebrity/stan-lee-needs-a-hero-elder-abuse-claims-and-a-battle-over-the-aging-marvel-creator/ar-AAvIeCW?ocid=ientp
  13. Agreed, I just thought the board was in dire need of a draft post that contained real content and not just the poster's conjecture.
  14. Could you imagine if the Bills stayed put and still came away with this haul? Buffalo Bills Round 1 (12): Baker Mayfield, QB, Oklahoma Round 1 (22): Rashaan Evans, ILB, Alabama Round 2 (53): Carlton Davis, CB, Auburn Round 2 (56): Jordan Lasley, WR, UCLA Round 3 (65): Nathan Shepherd, DT, Fort Hays State Round 3 (96): Jamarco Jones, OT, Ohio State There is certainly a possibility the Bills package 12 and 22 (with some other picks) to go up and get a QB. If they don't, they have six picks in the top 96 to help a roster that has some areas of need. Mayfield is the most experienced QB in this class and would likely compete for the starting job with AJ McCarron. Evans is a solid linebacker with good pass-rush skills. Davis would provide insurance if the Vontae Davis signing doesn't work. Lasley has first-round abilities at wideout, but has fallen from off-field issues. Shepard is a good small-school player and could help fill the hole left by trading Marcell Dareus. Jones provides help on an O-line that traded away Cordy Glenn.
  15. And yet during a season when he says he lost his love for the game he broke the all-time record for faceoff wins - weird. https://www.thescore.com/news/1522787
  16. We seriously need a 100 post minimum before a member can start a topic.
  17. Sometimes it's best to just hold a fart in - for the betterment of everyone around you.
  18. It's a shame that Spurrier failed as head coach of the Redskins. He was adamant that he and his assistant coaches would work reasonable hours and would go home by the dinner hour each day. I don't believe that coaches staying at the team facility until midnight and arriving back by 6 am (as every Bills coach did during the drought) accomplishes anything other than to send their divorce rates skyrocketing.
  19. People often lose sight of the 3-4 defense aspect of Bruce's numbers. It truly is otherworldly that he reached 200 sacks in that scheme.
  20. Five players that were selected first overall of the NFL draft suited-up at some point in their careers for the Buffalo Bills. Your task, should you choose to accept it, is to rank them from 1-5 by the success of their playing careers. A few caveats: Players should be ranked by the totality of their careers, not just the time spent in Buffalo. O.J. should be ranked solely by his playing career, not by his crimes and punishment. (Let's leave those discussions for more specific to O.J.threads) Tom Cousineau is not included as he never played a down for Buffalo. Walt Patulski, defensive end Drafted by: Buffalo Bills, 1972. Would you believe the first Notre Dame player to go No. 1 overall was Walt Patulski? Feel free to use that bit of trivia at the sports bar. Patulski started in Buffalo for four seasons before putting in a final year with Don Coryell and the 1977 St. Louis Cardinals. Patulski never lived up to his draft status, unfairly described as not being mean enough. His intellectual approach didn't mesh with Bills head coach Lou Saban, which Patulski admitted last year wrecked his career. Mario Williams, defensive end Drafted by: Houston Texans, 2006. Much debate came with Mario Williams going ahead of Reggie Bush, but now there is little doubt that it was the right choice. For all the criticism of Williams by various media members and fans, the guy who never seemed to do enough accomplished much in his 11 years in the league. That includes 97.5 sacks and four Pro Bowls. The recent one-year stint in Miami? Not as memorable. Drew Bledsoe, quarterback Drafted by: New England Patriots, 1993. Despite being largely known as the man replaced by Tom Brady in New England, Drew Bledsoe should be remembered for being a fine passer in the 1990s. In fact, Bledsoe led the NFL with 4,555 yards in only his second season. He also led New England to Super Bowl XXXI. While his stints with the Bills and Cowboys were often underwhelming, he did throw for over 4,000 yards in his first year in Buffalo while putting together five game-winning drives in his only full season as a starter in Dallas. O.J. Simpson, running back Drafted by: Buffalo Bills, 1969. O.J. Simpson didn't hit his stride with the Bills until Lou Saban took over head coaching duties in 1972. Simpson led the NFL in rushing in four of the next five seasons, including with 2,003 yards in 1973. Bruce Smith, defensive end Drafted by: Buffalo Bills, 1985. The NFL's sack king deserves this high ranking, especially because Bruce Smith provided 15 Hall of Fame seasons for the team that drafted him. Hard to believe now, but people questioned the Bills' decision back in 1985. Smith's 200 sacks are beyond question, as are his eight first-team All-Pro selections and 11 Pro Bowl nods. Oh, he also was Defensive Player of the Year twice and was named to two different All-Decade teams by the Hall of Fame. So basically, he deserves to be above the quarterbacks on this list. Except one.
  21. I thought it was a great interview and cements that the Bills are going to move heaven and earth to get in the top 5. Of course, it will spur 10 more Rosen or Mayfield threads.
  22. I collect two things that I have great passion for. The first is Buffalo sports teams pennants. I have many rare ones, including the pennants for the Buffalo Norsemen of the NAHL, Buffalo Wings of Professional Roller Hockey and (rarest of all) the Toronto/Buffalo Royals of World Team tennis (the team split it's home games between Buffalo and Toronto, hummm, wonder where Russ Brandon got that idea from?) The second is more rare, but I am two books away from having a complete Hardcover collection of all 43 of the Alfred Hitchcock and the Three Investigators books. Sort of like the Hardy Boys, but way better. The later editions are very rare as they stopped making hardcover available to the general public and only created them for libraries. They often sell for $250 per book or more, but I have been patient and have found a few unaware sellers on Ebay and have scooped them up for far below market value.
  23. I don't mean to nitpick, but he was able to shoot about 100 bullets two inches behind Negan's every step. I get it that the big Rick/Negan showdown will come at season's end, I just thought that the whole scene was drama-free and rather pointless.
