Taking a line from Darcy Regeir I was expecting a little pain this year but we are outperforming my expectations. The only problem is it would have been nice to snag a QB with a top 5 draft pick. The constant floating around .500 seasons have been arguably one of the biggest factors in keeping this drought going.
I stopped listening to them altogether about 10 years ago partially because I moved to Chicago and partially because it seemed they would never really talk about sports. They did entire segments on tennis lessons, maple syrup, game shows and I kid you not some guy in Amherst’s dred locks. I would start listening thinking the mindless chatter was leading to a segment topic related to sports and then I would relize this was the topic. I actually didn’t mind it if they did talk Bills or Sabres regardless of their opinions but it seemed like it was not enough for a station that billed itself “all sports all the time”.
I mean this is kind of like the interior designer of the Titanic worrying about the florial araigments for the first class brunch the next day just after the ship has split in two.
I was wrong. I thought McDermot knew what he was doing and was basing his decision on who he thought had the best chance to win and I thought he was basing that off of what he saw in game and in practice. I was wrong and he was wrong. The thing is I am not an NFL coach just a fan. I believe it was Marv Levy that said something similar to this "coaches that listen to what the fans want are the ones that will be joining the fans in the stands"
Man it is has been a rough go for my jersey purchases, I have had a Mcgahee, Lynch,Losman,Spiller and Watkins. After Sammy got traded I decided to scrap ever buying a current player again and went with a Thuman jersey.
My main intrest in this game is KC's defense getting me 8 fantasy points! For real life it is win win for us since if the Broncos lose it weakens another wild card contender and if the Cheifs lose it gives us a potentially higher first round pick.
Man I will never forget that draft, someone on the old Bills message board d actually said, "Marv got us four first rounders in thr first four rounds!"
Wait why are we supposed to be laughing at the owner who kept the Bills in Buffalo and already has an appreciation of 9 figures on his investment in less than three years?
Lives go in different directions. I remember in 2005 Fitzpatrick as a rookie 7th round pick threw 5 interceptions in one game for the Rams. I believe at the same time Young was preparing to go on to defeat USC to win the national championship the following month.
