  1. I hope fans don't boo him - that's more likely to light a fire in him. Just ignore him, he hates not being the center of attention.
  2. "Very well articulated" 😃
  3. If Walker - a 4th round pick - plays well above his pay grade the rest of the season, is there any incentive on the Bills' part to reward him financially next season? I'm not talking about an extension, but merely paying him closer to what he might be "due".
  4. In his All-22 review, Joe Marino put most of the blame on Milano, Bernard and Rapp. Said Bishop was okay.
  5. As Joe Marino points out, the Bills have no incentive to be transparent regarding White's injury - with the Ravens game two weeks away there is a competitive advantage to keeping info in-house.
  6. Tasker was talking about this on the radio yesterday. His take: during two-a-days players were dogging it a lot and the pace was slower. Nowadays coaches try to cram more game-speed plays into a limited window, and there's no break between drills.
  7. I was wondering if this was an intentional leak by the Bills to find out sources within the locker room...
  8. “Of all the ridiculous expressions people use - and people use a great many ridiculous expressions - one of the most ridiculous is 'No news is good news.' 'No new is good news' simply means that if you don't hear from someone, everything is probably fine, and you can see at once why this expression makes such little sense, because everything being fine is only one of many reasons why someone may not contact you. Perhaps they are tied up. Maybe they are surrounded by fierce weasels, or perhaps they are wedged tightly between two refrigerators and cannot get themselves out. The expression might well be changed to 'No new is bad news,' except that people may not be able to contact you because they have just been crowned king or are competing in a gymnastics tournament. The point is that there is no way to know why someone has not contacted you, until they contact you and explain themselves. For this reason, the sensible expression would be ;No news is no news,' except that it is so obvious it is hardly an expression at all.” ― Lemony Snicket, The Hostile Hospital
  9. 1. Yes 2. Get there an hour beforehand and sit in the far bleachers: sun's at your back, close to where the receivers drill. 3. Hours are posted on the website. 4. Avoid the bus and park in someone's lawn. Much easier and faster. I should add, there are VIP tickets, but you would know if you had them.
  10. Short version: he spent a lot of time in the Toronto area growing up, has tons of family there, and is really psyched to play for the Bills.
  11. All in fun - although I had never heard of "nescient" before
  12. https://www.buffalobills.com/video/first-round-pick-maxwell-hairston-wakes-up-with-gmfb-to-discuss-being-drafted-by-bills
  13. I generally like White, but to hear him be "shocked,...shocked" that Beane came in hot after White and his co-host spent the previous two hours largely bitching about the wide receiver room, was a bit much. Time to put on the big boy pants, White.
  14. I don't understand how there can be such a wide and polarized opinion about Deone Walker. Gunner Bill and Joe Marino - both of whom seem very well-informed - want nothing to do with the guy, and yet the Bills scouts and management obviously see it very differently.
  15. Do the Bills and other teams run their own scheduling program - modeled on known NFL parameters - in order to anticipate the schedule and perhaps plan [draft, free agent] accordingly? The team is down 2 d-linemen the first 6 weeks of the season. Seems like it would be helpful to know now which 6 teams they are likely to face.
  16. I don't have access to the stats of depth of target per throw, but based simply on average depth of completion, Coleman's throws were twice the distance of next closest, 15.5 yds v 8.3yds for Hollins. I'll give you that my recollection of the game was that Coleman seemed to be mailing it in, but given who was throwing him the ball, and the fact that it was not in the Bills interest to win this game, I understand it...not a reflection of talent or lack thereof, IMO
  17. Week 18 elite QB Mitchell Trubisky was throwing the ball...
  18. Grew up in Brampton, ON, just north of Pearson Int'l airport
  19. I really want him to be good, but [1] he's not built like the top, dominant TEs and I doubt any amount of weight training will change that significantly, and [2] it doesn't seem like there's enough dog in him, he seems like a nice, suburban boy. Hope I'm wrong...
  20. Paws Allen just scored the game winning touchdown in Puppy Bowl XXI for Team Fluff with 6 seconds left, so we always have that memory.🙂
