  1. ok thats better..I love a running theme

  2. you are doing a fabulous job on the commercial thread-I can't beliebev how quick you summarize - please take a gummie so we are on an even plane

  3. I was just about to write a personal note to the person talking about black power but your framing was much better than what i would have said. I immediately thought of the false equivalent argument that seems to pervade the right side of politics in America. ok a small anecdotal story to add to your argument. i am a track guy and ran well into my 40s. The team i ran with was almost all black and we were at a meet in Buffalo (I lived in Pittsburgh at the time) and we went to a Spaghetti House (at least I think it was - I don't think one exists anymore in Buffalo). They seated at least five parties of similar size who came in after us and when they did seat us they put us at a  table next to the kitchen. I started to complain but my companions said it happens all the time and they were simply used to it. i wish the guy who wrote that post had to go through a similar experiences so maybe he would get it. There are some jerky black people so i don't want to give anyone a pass because of their color or ethnicity - my worst boss (he hated good looking, charming and smart white guys - ok just the smart part) was a black guy who ironically played for the Dallas Cowboys (back when they had a taxi squad) so reverse racism does occur once in a while.  Again appreciate your response..made me feel I am not alone.

      Thanks, great story! I think they deleted most of that thread.

  4. was just listening to Bowie, and of course "spiders"...never thought about the coincidence..of course it was probably the influence of my home grown

  5. Yolo,

     

    any chance when you update that pre-draft visit list you could list in parenthesis after the player the round or rounds they are likely to be taken in?

     

    not a criticism just trying to get a feel where the Bills may head during any given round of the draft.

     

    love your posts

  6. no need to apologize I got a bit too cute for my own good..I think the current state of the Bills is driving everyone crazy.....some of us go dark and irreverent as a coping mechanism..we are as fans rooting for  the same team no matter how much suffering that involves

      Thank you. I try to be really level-headed when people post or respond and I guess sometimes I get a little chippy and misconstrue intentions when that happens. So, I appreciate you reaching out, but I failed to see the sarcasm. And yes, you're right....these are dark days. I maybe wrong, but I am in the group that thinks during next off-season Beane will get the players on Offense to make a big stride forward.

       

      I don't think it an ALL be done in one off-season because of supply and demand, but I do think a big step forward occurs next year. And as much as I hate constant turnover, I think if the Offense is anywhere near this bad next year, I don't think McD should stay. I like him and I think he's a good coach, but player development is just as much your job as coaching / managing players. And in contemporary NFL, Offense is king. 

       

      Thanks again, take care and as always - Go Bills!
