That's No Moon

Come back when the Bills are good. We should be colonizing Europa by then.

Why do I have to be a fan of any team to be posting here? I followed the Bills and considered myself a fan for a very long time. Last September I took all of my stuff and all of my kids stuff and threw it in a Goodwill container and haven't watched a minute since. Things I'd owned for 30 years, gone. The Bills are banned from my house. No TV, no radio, no discussion. They are dead. They are a non-entity in my home. If my kids want to watch football they can become Eagles or Ravens fans because either of those would be acceptable local teams. They should support their local team or none at all. They certainly shouldn't continue to absorb **** from other people, adults and children alike, because their father grew up somewhere else. To be perfectly frank the sport they call football now is very different from what I grew up watching and I'd been liking it less and less for many years but kept watching because of fantasy football and misplaced loyalty to the Bills. I stopped playing fantasy football the year after they started Thursday night football because it stopped being fun and started being a job to keep up with. Without the gambling action the game itself was incredibly boring which made it much easier to face reality about the Bills. They are the jobbers of the NFL and will be forever. Since the NFL sucks in general now, and the Bills suck even more, what was the point? The entire process stopped being fun. It's not about being a bandwaggoner somewhere else, I couldn't give a **** who wins week to week. I watched the Super Bowl and that was only because I had money on it. The game is garbage. So I come in here extremely occasioanally to kick your dog and throw your lolly in the dirt. Get over it.

No see, this is where you have me incorrectly pigeon holed. I don't like ANY of them. They are ALL useless and will remain so well into the future. Watkins was a stupid draft choice made for stupid reasons. However, that ship already sailed and he's the best receiver on the team and they need to make it work. They wont do that though. They'll just throw him away and overdraft another WR next year because the problem isn't their cap management or their talent evaluation or their game day coaching or their roster of players. IT'S EVERYTHING. Top to bottom, the entire organization. Useless piles of continual failure. There is literally nothing they can't screw up or won't continue to screw up. They have been stuck in neutral for nearly two DECADES and everything they touch turns to ****. You can feel however you want about this week. Track record says they !@#$ed it up. Yes, golfing on Sundays rather than watching the NFL has been wonderful.

I'm sorry, you're right, it's sunshine and rainbow season right now. Enjoy that, your next GM search starts in about 12 hours. Good luck with that.

you're right, you can't pay everyone, but we paid Vlad Ducasse and 2 freaking FULLBACKS. Woods? Fine, let go. Gilmore was a foolish thing to do and they'll do the same thing next year when they let Watkins walk then need to go draft a WR again and we can all be happy about how they addressed their needs. To be honest I could probably just give it an F, not give any reasons, wait 4 years and be right when nobody is still on the roster.

because when you do that you can never address other needs. The team had needs LAST year that didn't get addressed because we needed to fill new holes that didnt need to be there. Unless the new CB and WR are upgrades rather than just replacements there was no progress made.

I gave them an F, they drafted a CB to fill a need they should have never opened. A possession WR, 3 tweeners, and a mediocre QB AND they gave up additional picks to get the possession WR and a tweener OL.

nickel LB that McDermott would like to bring up the A gap. In the meantime ST demon.

is that like a chastity belt?

and then I read his profile and it says he might not have enough leg.

I'm wondering how long it takes for him to embarrass himself and the Broncos. Even money he either blows off or acts like an arrogant ass at the Mr. Irrelevant festivities.

Nope, it's stupid. It's a loser move and if his last name wasn't Kelly there'd be literally ZERO people advocating for it.

You know, we complain when the Bills do Billsy things...this would be the absolute Billsiest thing possible. What is the best way to use a late round pick? Let's start an immediate and perpetually ongoing quarterback controversy over a player who has shown himself repeatedly, over a long period of time, in multiple venues, to be a colossally entitled Dbag. I'm sure he'll come right in and go with the flow and everything will work out fantastically.

and because he tore up his knee, and tore a ligament in his wrist and can't throw for several months and and and and

Yeah, apparently not.

Gonna need to replace Watkins when they let him walk for nothing.

Or explode shortly after takeoff.

Watch hockey.

See, here's the thing, it DOESN'T jive with the original deleted thread that said it took 4 deputies to get him on the ground. It's a little off that such a bizarre story would come out to be correct with such a key detail being incorrect.

And they are this close to calling it the on-air circle jerk that it is.

You could say the same thing for the last 15+ years and you'll be able to say it next year as well.

Indeed. Class of 95. To respond to the post, if you can't even go to a bar without being challenged to a fight it's because you're acting like an !@#$ in the bar. Inability to recognize that one is acting like an !@#$ in a bar is the calling card of !@#$s in bars. Yeah, but this is no longer 1983 and the cameras aren't going away. If Jim Kelly played now and acted the way he did then he would flame out tremendously as would many athletes from that, and previous eras. Mickey Mantle, for example, wouldn't be the folk hero he is if he played today. He'd be Josh Hamilton.

Rode my bike to the Ames on Grand Island Blvd. many a time as a child, it was next to Fay's Drug Store across the plaza from Video Factory. I remember getting a copy of "Hardball II" for my PC for $10 because it was mismarked. Fun game and you could make your own team which was unusual for the time, the problem was the player attributes were derived from the stats the player had already achieved so if you created a brand-new team with no stats at all you had a team of guys who could barely get the ball out of the infield. I'm sure I had many many things from that Ames as it was the only pseudo department store on the Island. Trapper Keepers, hats and gloves, baseball cards, etc. I do distinctly remember going to Mesmer's Dairy to buy Garbage Pail Kids though. Ames didn't have them. :-)

Death Nugget

Stephon Gilmore. He got paid AND got to a team that will win. Most improved by far.
