Take a look at this link: Edwards Column A nice piece in S.D. area paper about Trent's recovery from his concussion. Look at the (many) comments below it. Not one is on topic. The Dolt fans just blather on about whatever innane thought passes into their Keith Lincoln lovin' brains. Couldn't even come up with the obligatory: "Wait 'till our D-Line knocks him silly" line. Sheesh! And I thought people here had a hard time with tangents.

Juat a thought about the whole "didn't pass the physical" deal: Do you think a team uses that as a safety valve? For instance: Let's say that McCargo shows up in Indy and has a terrible interview. He shows a bad attitude and the team figures he's a bad fit. Do they then "fail" him to get the pick back? Also, could Indy figure that there's no way the Bills keep him after he's sent back so why not get him on waivers and keep the draft pick? If that's the case the NFL should make it a rule that if you void a trade you can't claim that player if they are waived.

SILENT MOVIE "No" - famed mime Marcel Marceau

A lot of people seem to be getting really geeked up on this. Proceed with caution - odds are KC won't move him at all. It would be great if they did - to the Bills. I don't want everyone on the TG sugar high to crash hard if he's still in KC tomorrow at 4:01 PM

I've listened to the show for years. I think that Howard is simply in a much happier place in his life, which may not be condusive to being "relevent." He's been in three-times-a-week therapy for years (making him a much calmer, happier guy), signed a contract for $500 million and just married a super model. Yeah, that's irrelevent, for sure. When I tune in it's just to hear old friends do their thing. I don't care if "A" listers don't come on - give me Eric the Midget anyday.

Sure could have used Superman in the secondary against the Cards. What a stupid move that was - and from Marv no less. (sarcasm ON) Let it go and enjoy the bye fer cryin out loud.
-
That's one way to spin it. Here's another: Fitzgerald is more effective because of the presence of Boldin on the team. Defenses can't double him nearly as much because Boldin can burn single coverage. If Lee had a legit #2 (maybe Hardy by the end of the season) his numbers would exceed Fitzgerald's.

The More I look into this AZ Game...
ChevyVanMiller replied to The Big Cat's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm at the point where I don't care if the other team is playing desperate, to save the coach, to get off the snide or to get a win before a perceived tougher opponet arrives on the schedule. So far, this team has proven that they'll overcome all of those obstacles and get the "W." I don't think Arizona has a snowball's chance in the desert of winning against the Bills. -
Really cool read, Ken. Thanks. One question: Is there a position guide key? What was "E"?
-
That's worrisome. Leodis played well yesterday, but losing a vet like McGee could spell trouble. Let's hope he is okay after the bye. It also looks like Reggie Corner will get his first activation.

2 point conversion penalty
ChevyVanMiller replied to TC in St. Louis's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
No, it hapened to the Bills after the Jackson TD. Called the peanlty on Royal (not covered up by WR). Bills then kicked PAT. -
A Word to the Younguns
ChevyVanMiller replied to ChevyVanMiller's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Somebody give this man a cigar. The first post ever to admit not staying to watch the end of the comeback game. According to my count 4.3 miilion people claim to have been at Rich Stadium screaming like maniacs when Christie kicked through the winner. Have one on me... -
For anyone under 25 who may not remember anything about what it was like during the 4 Super Bowl years here's a piece of advice: Enjoy the team and the wins however they may come. Even though those early '90s teams won the overwhelmimg majority of their games, you never would have known it listening to some of the fans. Talk shows (hardly anyone had internet) were clogged with bitching "fans" that disected the game to the point where the joy was taken out of it. If Kelly threw for 300 yards they'd complain about the one pick he threw (instead of enjoyig the 4 TDs). If Thurman ran for 150, they'd say he should have had 200 if the line had only blocked better. If Bruuuuuuce had 2 sacks, they'd point out that he gave up a big run to the opposing back. If the Bills won 31-13, they'd whine that the game was too close at halftime. What I'm getting at is that this year's team is reminding me more and more of those glory year teams. Many of the people waxing nostalgic about the Super Bowl years did not enjoy those games as they were happening. They put the Bills under a microscope and sucked the joy out of the games. I sat at many a game in the stadium and many in a local watering hole only to listen to folks that just couldn't stand prosperity. I've greatly enjoyed these last three games and I don't care if the Bills beat St. Louis by 40 tomorrow or by 4 at the buzzer. To borrow a phrase from Raider Nation: Just win baby. I like where this roller coaster is heading.

I wasn't suggesting that the Bills were ready to pull the trigger on a deal, but you can bet your last dollar that just about every team in the league toyed with the idea. Even if it was to sell a ton of jerseys and merchandise.

Last night Farve looked like what he is - a 30-something QB playing on past reputation. If the Bills had taken a flyer on him Edwards would be sitting on the bench stunting his growth. Also, a young team would probably not be gelling the way this one has. The Jets would have been better suited to stick with Pennington or play Clemons (sp?). At least they wouldn't be throwing a year away riding a horse who is ready to be put out to pasture. As Garth Brooks said, "Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers."

Bills/Raiders Caption the Photo time
ChevyVanMiller replied to JÂy RÛßeÒ's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Old Joke, but here goes: LW: We're gonna play house, do you want to be the Husband or the Wife? Raider: (Thinking: I don't want to play house with this big dude) Well, I guess I'll be the husband. LW: Good, then get down there and suck your wife's d*%K! -
Who was the other FB in camp? Evans?

Done. He currently stands at #2. We can get him to #1. Way to go, Derek. You make WNY proud! -
Great Line from Jags Defender
ChevyVanMiller replied to ChevyVanMiller's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Another thought: That's really a testimony to the O-line on the final play. There's a picture in the Buffalo News of the play before to Evans where the O-line is seen with not one Jag defender even in the camera frame. Great job in crunch time by the boys up front. O-Line, No Jags Click on the pic below "More Photos" -
Defensive end Paul Spicer said the defensive line needed to get more pressure on Edwards on the touchdown pass. "I didn't get close enough to him to smell his cologne," Spicer said. If he had he would have found out it was Eau de Jag Killer.

Peter King Predictions for the weekend
ChevyVanMiller replied to Phil Hansen Forever's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Well, all that says to me is that Peter King is already 0-1 this week and it is only Friday.
