Wow. I didn't realize it's wrong to critisize a GM who's genius hasn't put in the playoffs for a very long time. Nevermind. I take it all back. TD is awesome. I love the way manipulates people and press alike. I dunno, maybe another year of missing the playoffs and then he becomes an embarassment? I sure like the contract position he's in right now. You people who don't dare critisize him are surely Flutie lovers.

While I certainly admire Travis' ability to play through pain, isn't that about the time he isn't feeling so well?

With all the bitchin goin on about what we drafted, and the fact we STILL have Travis (although I expect that will change on day 2) perish the thought but, since TD's own contract has not been extended, is he calling a mulligan until he gets his own deal? Stupid though I know. But so you know what side of the fence I sit on, I wanted to move Travis last year. Back when he was legitimately worth something. I would also have seriously looked hard at trading Nate now. I think we are going to lose TH and Nate at the end of their terms for nothing. And it won't suprise me to hear TD say he cant afford to franchise Nate due to the constrictions of the rule. Because he will have to possibly save it and use it on another player. I think we could have done better, although it's not over yet. I am banking on JP being great. But I have that uneasy feeling about him. I just don't see the maturity that will be required to lead the group. And lastly, at the end of the day for all his hot air and self promotion, how many times have we made the playoffs under TD? Yes indeed there are reasons for concern. P.S. goodbye Josh Reed, another wasted draft pick.

I guess Rueben Brown must have really hated the Bills organization and Porky Parker becuase he sure as hell was on GR for a long time. Of course Rueben wasn't a phony and wasn't thin skinned which of course cost him in the end. Getting upset about losing and bad play calling and we I mean he, ships him out of here. Too bad.

301 actually The bottom line, THEY sucked.

Bobby was the best!

Can you tell me how you will pronounce that?

Flutie? Bledsoe? TODD COLLINS

Ah Peter King yes indeed. A fountain of misinformation if I ever did see one. I think he's a blowhard and thinking back to the first quarter of last season offered gems such as: I'm positive the bills will get a first round pick for Travis. There was much more misinfo, but that one still rings in my ears. I will look at draft board and take your $20 Now if you want to go because it includes dinner and a movie, well, that's different Ha

Jeez what a site this is. peoples fathers dying and people getting divorced! I have had to deal with both of these issues so I have already offered up on the bereavement thread and now this. Speaking from my own experience, I would tell you this is most important especially having had a friend go through a divorce recently and do exactly the opposite of what I did. You must be comfortable being alone. Once you are happy with yourself, you can move on. If not you are only asking for more trouble and heartache. In the short term though, like someone said earlier in this thread, hit The Sundowner If that doesn't make you happy, forget it!

I lost my dad last year unexpectedly, and think about him all the time. His doctor told me he was a very sick man. More than we knew. Hang tough and keep the good memories with you always and forever! I miss mine so much I can't explain, but I cherish the good times we had. My Dad I would say, was a better man than I. He will be with me forever and at some point in my life when I am facing a challenge, I will look back to him for guidance. I did not always agree with him on a lot of things, but he definately had some patience that I do not posess. I miss him dearly but am GLAD, that he suffers no more. He was a much more forgiving man than I ever will be. I hope your pain passes and you treasure what you had.

You cannot afford to lose time from work and should be granted immunity!

Don't be a chump. Do your duty!

How can I say this politely without offending? I'll try this. I thought John Butler was a blowhard as a GM. I never felt like he had a grasp of what was really going on. To put it bluntly, he would have made one hell of an Erie County Legislator!! But may he RIP. Anyway after reading your post it gives me a bad taste of Donahoe. Mind you I would say that was a home run draft for Big John. I dislike TD even more than Butler. But I will say he sure as hell knows how to manage a cap where Butler was absolutely clueless about it. I would like to add that MadBuffaloDisease with the breakdown of TD's 2001 draft equals if not betters this. But TD is looked at by Ralph as much more than a GM and I don't think that will ever change. No matter what, some GM will always get a lucky breakout player that turns out to be a difference maker. Willis is that kind of gamble, and guess what you heard it here first folks, JP is taking us to the playoffs in his first year as a starter! If he doesn't, then I've got at least a dollar for anyone who cares to claim it!!! I guess that would solidify TD in my mind and many others.

I believe I heard DG say that they weren't interested in giving TH a long term deal and would let him play out the year. Personally, I think that's bunk but since DG is kind of a screwed up head case, it could be true.

I kind of laughed at the idea at first, but then I saw a picture of it in the news and thought well I'm going to one of those two upcoming games so it will be interesting to see. Then I saw it on channel 2 and 4 during their sportscasts yesterday and I gotta tell ya it looked very cool! As the owner of a High Definition tv I really can't wait to see a game with the blue ice in hi def. I don't know when that chance will come but I would love to see it. The snorting goat painted on center ice looked vivid. Don't toss this idea aside until you see how much color it adds. If it does nothing other increase ratings when the game returns, so much for the better because they are going to have a very tough time selling the game to anyone who isn't a hardcore fan. This will help.

I like the message because we know TD will not pay Nate what Nate (speking in the third person here) will get elsewhere and besides, the cowbell in motion is cool! Bahhhhhhhhhhhhh

So what? I've been a member for 1 3/4 years and have 8 posts. 3 or 4 of the today even ( also equals loser ) Now who know's what?

Personally I dont like TD, but kool aid drinking chumps is too much for me to accept. Now then, get out of that Jello tree ya fool. Kelly's a nice deal. Indeed, Kelly Holcomb

This all good with me too. McNally took Parker the dog a long way and I think this guys a hell of a lot better than him.

This is F'n sweet I don't expect him to play because I think JP is going to be a stud. But the one thing with JP that we have to wait and see is if he will be durable. That is really far less of an issue now. If all JP did this season was hand the ball off, we would still make the playoffs because Willis is a stud. Hey Drew, thanks buddy!

I really miss Bob and Puff and that morning team far more than I like Simon and Jeremy. Some of the stuff they do like Take a seat Friday for example is just a rip off of what was One and Gone on Thursdays with Bob. Howard is well, just Howard
