  1. weather wise game I went to was the Giants game the year they ruined the Pats* perfect season. Sideways freezing rain right in our face (section 122 - imagine that).

    That was a bad game, I was hoping for game to end.

     

    So were:

    1. the 1993-1994 playoffs vs Raiders (0 degrees and windchill of -32 degrees at kickoff I believe)
    2. the Bills-Browns game of 2007
    3. The day OJ Simpson hit 2000 yards against Jets in 1973

    but those were away games

  2. Who cares who reported it first? It's not like their plagiarizing a best selling book, it's freakin' football news.

     

    Some people take themselves way too seriously.

     

    Journalism used to divide opinions and news with news reporters who wanted to express opinions clearly state it as an opinion even if citing fasts with clear lines against plagiarism. Now days most of news is really opinions with some slanted facts which may fit their opinion cited and often sources are opinions written by writers which share their view. Many of the electronic news industry have followed the leader in toilet bowl reporting since 1996 because like slander sheets and other made up articles they generated sales.

  3. I also can't believe that BuffaloBills.com stuff gets posted. If I wanted to read the official propaganda, I'd just go to the site.

     

    You could say same thing about Bleacher Report - If I wanted to read the official garbage, I'd just go to the site.

    If a poster can not use a redirection URL or a frame which uses Bleacher Report then it it is not worth reading.

     

    Perhaps you should read the sfweekly.com story which is the more important of the two.

     

    Saying BR is respectable because of Matt Bowen is like sticking up for ISIS because their neonatal health care plan is top notch.

     

    Or Dolphins because their colors are pretty.

  4. IMO I think the mistake was not interviewing any of the assistant coaches who previous worked for Bills but instead cleared the slate despite the Bills were under obligation to pay the coaches. The outgoing OL coach could have told Bills strengths and weaknesses and they could have hired assistants to work with them who were promotable. He appeared to hurry to put together staff before his choices were picked by other teams but that does not necessarily his coaches were better than coaches working for Bills before.

     

    I have had managers at work do that when they replaced the boss with lots of people getting severance pay. Some of people hired were flops, were laid off and new manager almost lost job too.

  5. I wonder if it is because he lost all of his real ones?

    All of his imaginary friends are each saying something the author has been saying for years. And Tom Brady worship is obvious by link with Tom Brady in it.

     

    My theory is after Homerun Throwback he stopped cheering for the Bills to win and started cheering for the Bills to lose since he figured it was easier to recycle content.
