  1. Firing isn't helpful at this point, Let Whaley finish his contract, then decide. You don't want the team to get a rep of firing people and revolving door. If you do get that rep, you'll have a hard time attracting talent at all levels. Look at Cleveland. I'd hardly say the people they have hired are the cream of the crop--probably no one of any quan expressed an interest.
  2. I don't know the details of Sammy's foot injury, or the treatments. But I do hope they considered hyperbaric treatment. https://www.google.com/search?q=hyperbaric+chamber+nfl One of the guys on my crew had a stress fracture that just would not heal. The Naval Hospital put him in the chamber for a few sessions, and bingo: cured. If any med types here have insights, please chime in.
  3. Sadly, peer review journals are not as robust and truthful as they once were.
  4. 95% have their minds made up who they are voting for. A debate result isn't going to change their mind. 5% have their mind made up, but lie about it to impress people with their intellectualism and open-mindedness. Debates at this stage are useless.
  5. Did not sit in front of the TV the whole game. I listened on the radio--I only went to the telly to see replays of interest. edit: the system didn't work well... WBEN radio is about 5 seconds behind the TV (fios version)
  6. Is this one of those things to blame on Jay Rosen? Or, am I old school?
  7. He could have driven. He has WNY ties. He was football coach at RIT. He even coached the football classes for ordinary students. My friends from that era say he is a first class person. He may have been in the area and on spur of the moment called TP.
  8. People making decisions on TWO games... WTF. People wanting a tank season ... WTF... there is no Connor McDavid QB coming up. Nor will there ever be, that is how football works. Put your hockey stick down and get some breath... People saying that Whaley whiffed on Garrapolo ... get a fricken life outside your fantasy league. Probability is you will whiff on your first, or second, or third SO. That is much more life important than stupid **** football. PS: Please don't procreate. Above all: stop making football your identity and get on with your life. I have done so (with a momentary slip-up last year v. NE, when I threw my remote against the wall and shattered it.) Otherwise, I watch for fun.. it's quite liberating.
  9. OMG .... it just came to me [the Brandon conspiracies and hatred]. Disgruntled fans imagine themselves with their fingers secretly at the inner controls of the Bills.. and that leads to eternal Super Bowls. Living that fantasy thru RB. It's like the dishwasher who bemoans the $8 check average.. while he could make it $9. ...and we won't even mention the reality that RB has zip-nada-nil to do with on the field football, nor hockey, nor country music talent.
  10. And you sir, know more about sports?? The guy grew 4 billion from a 10K investment. I think his brain is pretty powerful.. including sports. How much do you make now? How much is in your savings account?
  11. He's 72 years old.
  12. Thank you for this. Sometimes I wonder if Bills fanbase excessive negativity is part of the teams problems.
  13. One loss, by a close score, on the road. We're doooooomed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WD73a1trdJ0
  14. Ya. They lost a close game on the road to a good team. No need for harikari. Lose at home to mediocrity: then it's time to say WTF.
  15. Nice counter to the "we're doomed... dooooomed" and the "Pegs in over his head" and "Brandon/Whaley/Rex/Rob/waterboy suck" posts. Tyrod is going to kill it. The injury eight ball will be kind. = Playoffs.
  16. Joe Licata is >> than this scrub. I'm not critical of the Bills here. The had to do what they had to do at the time they cut JL. I bet they would like JL better than Austin Trainor. Sources tell me.
  17. Because they were looking at the total team wide RB picture. Marcel has leverage because he's good and needed. Karlos has no performance leverage ... "he was that expendable." The Bills actually did him a favor when giving him more time to redeem himself.
  18. Not a PR move. She has a successful record as Chief of Police of Washington DC, a city with target on it's back. She is qualified. The league sent out a press release when they hired Miller. Here is the press release for Lanier. No gender card in it. Compare the press releases, you'll see that she is qualified, probably more so than Miller. No one in this thread brought up the gender card.
  19. I lived in DC area for a while... Lanier is sensible and respected by all. Good move by the NFL. But I must say that is the worst photo of her I have ever seen. She's a very attractive woman. Search Google Images to check it out.
  20. I've never met a habitchual pot head over 40 years old. They must pass of other things first... Could be the demographics of who I hang with. But I doubt it. Suspending players (including Dareus) for ganja: I'm OK with that.
  21. Bringing this thread back to topic (hopefully): I think the New Era deal is great. A local company, with national exposure (New Era) merging forces with another nationally recognized company (the Bills). Off topic: I walked by New Era HQ on Delaware Ave, on my way to an unsuccessful job interview, and noticed the entry to their parking lot was a very visible San Francisco 49 statue. Is there a story there..?
  22. Vegas... you dirty troll. And slut. I raise a beer to you. One time only.
  23. Happy memories of that awesome phrase.. thank you. (I used it at work, with negative results) I'm in the who cares camp, as long as their are no injuries.
  24. I agree with it's about time. The rest of what you said is whiny tripe. The only reason the Bills exist in WNY today is because of RW. Yea, he was cheap (but not always). Would you rather cheer for no team, or for the Bills being here? And worst owner in history? Dude, you need an enema. I'm not even going into the long long list of owners who screwed their team and their fans ... by moving the team to another city, or owner made crappy football decisions. And your hateful points are from the 1970's and 1980's. Upgrade your AOL account to real internet access.. and get rid of the Packard Bell computer.
