Toledo Bill

The NBA has evolved into a joke. When I was a kid (Bill Russell era) I loved watching it. I lost interest until Bird/Magic ( I graduated from college in 1979... when they did) and enjoyed watching their team oriented battles over the years. The modern game is offensive (not in a scoring way). I can't even stand to watch Sportscenter when they go crazy regarding the selfish one- on -one play and put eight dunks into their top ten plays. Maybe it's a generational thing... but I wouldn't watch a free game with courtside tickets...

Where are you coming from in Ohio? Generally they are always wrong regarding forecasts in NW Ohio.

Interesting! Every discussion I have read about trading Henry involves what kind of draft pick we can get. I like the thought of using him to trade for a positional need. Guess I missed the boat on that thought... but I think we could do a lot better using your approach then a draft pick.

Unless I remember incorrectly due to the "70's haze" I read the books in... wasn't Saruman killed in the Shire?

I like the looks of it but concur with Thailog. I had a Chrysler Concorde LXI for the past four years and it was a definate POS. I made every maintenance schedule and still had numerous breakdowns, engine lights coming on all the time, needed all new injectors and sparkplugs, new air conditioning coil, noise in the front end which could never be fixed, etc... It was also a loud car as far as "road noise" I got a new car in October and will never go near a Chrysler again!

I have no reason to dislike him other than him blowing off the opportunity to coach the Bills... but it sure is sweet to beat his team the past two years...

That would make the most sense. Replay challenges would not include pictures. Thanks

Thanks... I thought it was a great challenge (thinking we must have been right). I was sure that we would not have challenged unless we were sure of ourselves ( the challenge even occurred during a time out) and if we were right we would have received a first down. I guess I was questioning if anyone had heard where Mularky got the bad info to challenge. Seems like the kind of error we shouldn't make.

Insight like that makes this site invaluable. Thanks for clearing that up for me...

Any explanation heard yet?

What is Henry's injury status?

I think I searched correctly. It doesn't matter, I just like to see where certain posts end up. Time to ramp up for tomorrow!

Then why the bounce?

That comment really hit home. Other than the second New England game this year, I have not used the word gutless this year to describe the Bills. Last year, I did many times. I give a lot of credit to Mularkey for the attitude change.

And give some credit to the present coaching staff for how they handled Big Sam's outburst earlier this year. Lord knows how Greggggggg would have handled it. Mularkey gave Sam more playing time in passing situations... basically said here you go, put your money where your mouth is... and Sam sure did. I really feel that another big improvement regarding MM over Williams is that he truly knows how to deal with adversity and players attitudes and emotions.

You are darn tootin'... We have veteran leadership that will step forward tomorrow. I expect huge games from Malloy, Vincent, Spikes, Moulds, etc. That, combined with our young offensive stars should take care of business on Sunday!

What an exciting matchup! The Bengals are playing very well. If we win this game the Bills will certainly be hitting on all cylinders. This will be a great test... an away game against an up and coming team. Go Bills!

I participated in it last night and it was gone this morning. Must have gotten too heated. It sure had the potential to do so.

I think Nugent might be worth a second rounder. He is awful good.

I have always thought that Promo the Robot was excellent. It brings back memories of when I was a child living in Buffalo. Pisschunk, however, always brings a warped smile to my face...

"See Fletcher... you only celebrate after you make a BIG play..."

If I still lived in Buffalo, I would probably have season tickets and would care a great deal. Living in Ohio and having two young children that take up a lot of my time... I could care less. It's funny... when I was single and in my twenties, I watched every Hockey, Baseball and Basketball game I could see (or attend). Now in my forties (soon to be fifties)... I watch Pro football, maybe parts of the World Series and maybe parts of the NCAA tournament. That's it. Priorities change...

I always thought Pete Carroll was a terrible NFL Head Coach, but college is sure the right fit for him. Might hold true for Wannedstedt, also...

Payton had a tremendous straight arm. Moulds has thrown a few good ones in his day. Although he came from the hated Dolphins, watching Larry Csonka plow into defenders with a thrown forearm was another pretty awesome weapon from a running back!

pass block! He is going to be a stud on picking up blitzers, etc. Best since Thurman. It looks like Bledsoe is totally comfortable with Willis helping pass block. Wasn't so with Henry... And I love watching Lee Evans lower his head and take on a potential tackler. We have two absolutely complete players that will only improve.
