Be a fair trade for both sides. Im just curious . Would anyone be satisfied if that deal was done ?

This is not Your team anymore. I hope JP makes you eat your words about being his backup.

Where can I watch or listen to it live ?

How about Commander Tom or mercenary and overpaid Milloy.

Or an electric fence in case someones color blind when JP wears the red jersey in practice.

Well...On the bright side....I don't have to pay for 6 more weeks instead of 4.

Because it says three payments March 1st. April 1st and May 1st. My first payment was $2,010.47.

I went on the three month plan to pay my season tickets. March, April and May. They took there money on my charge card two days after I submitted it they couldn't even wait to March 1st....those money hungry --------.

Lets go with Garcia...Then maybe I can can run into Carmela Decesare at St John Fisher . You know...when its hot outside and you wear tank tops and shorts.

See if you can trade him first...if no takers then cut him.

The end is nigh for an NFL legend. The 2004/05 season is officially over and as has happened seemingly every year this century, the talk about Brett Favre’s retirement has begun. If the great man does in fact choose to hang his boots up one last time in a few months and retire to a quiet life with his family and fishing rod (at least until the moment when he will be forced to re-enter the spotlight briefly as he accepts his entry into the Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility) who, out of the numerous passers out there will be stepping up to the plate and inheriting Number 4’s title of: Most Exciting Quarterback in Football? There are many quarterbacks in the league right now who are exciting to watch in one way or another. Manning (Peyton) is a passing robot, a picture of cerebral fluidity who can slice defenses to ribbons whilst posting numbers that could make even the toughest defensive co-coordinator cry into his cup of Gatorade, at least until his joints freeze up during his annual post season game in New England, causing him to look more like the pre-oiled Tin Man from The Wizard of Oz. Unfortunately he has neither the charm nor the charisma (on the field or off) to get this award. Besides, Manning is too methodical to be improvisational (a key skill needed to be termed truly exciting). If a play breaks down and his receivers are held in check, Manning will more likely than not throw the ball into coverage or sling it out of bounds. If Manning had the ability to be truly spontaneous he might have found a way to beat the Patriots in the last couple of years. Tom Brady, like the entire Patriots’ offense has been labeled as efficient but boring, but in actual fact it is his sheer effortless efficiency that makes him so good to watch. No glitz, no jiving, just business. But still, he doesn’t take your breath away, making you wonder what you just saw happen and what might happen next. I could name numerous other great quarterbacks in this league who are enjoyable to watch for varying reasons, but it would be a waste of time, as the obvious winner of Most Exciting Quarterback in the Football should, you are probably screaming, go to a guy named Vick. But, in true pedantic style, I am going to disqualify young Michael from this debate, as for all his star power and athletic ability; he still is a quarterback in name only. Watch a highlight reel of Michael Vick and, as exciting as it is, 99% of the clips will consist of SCRAMBLES. When Vick gets his passing to take up at least 40% of that footage, we’ll start calling him a quarterback. And besides, if I automatically gave the title to Sick Vick there would be no way I could write the rest of this article with a straight face (based as it is in blind optimistic Buffalo Bill faith), and that just wouldn’t be any fun. So here goes… The player most likely to take over the role soon to be vacated by Brett Favre could… might… hopefully… will be…. JP Losman. John Paul Losman. Livewire Losman (I just made up that nickname for him and I like it so much I’m sticking to it). Now before you fall off your chair with unbridled merriment, let me make it clear that I am in no way claiming Losman will even come close to achieving the status, reputation or statistics that the Lambeau legend has built up over his illustrious career, but what I am saying is, in a time when Favre is so close to walking away, and people are asking the question “who will come along to take his place?” it is at least reasonable to believe that Livewire (I love that name…) will have a chance of continuing that tradition of the gun slinging firecracker who overpowers with his passion and thrills with his throwing. And if you think I’m the only one crazy enough to come to this assumption, stop pointing your guns at me and instead toggle them towards the Buffalo number 7 himself. You see, before the 2004 NFL Draft, there was some talk that Green Bay would draft Losman as an eventual replacement for the ageing Favre. Losman believed it himself, and went so far as to meet with Favre – his childhood hero – during the summer of 2003. "Brett is the best, the No. 1 guy in the league. To get the chance to meet him was incredible”, a pre-draft JP said. Losman claims he modeled his style of play on his hero, and although that is no guarantee whatsoever of a successful pro career, it does at least show that it’s a possibility; model yourself on greatness and you yourself could be great. After all, Tom Brady’s boyhood hero was Joe Montana, can you tell? And if the Pats could be lucky enough to land themselves with a player who is capable of living up to his idol, surely it’s not too much to ask that Buffalo might catch a break in the same vein? "From the style of football we play, all the way to our personalities, Brett and I are very similar”, Losman continued, hinting at the competitive streak that allowed his 6 feet 3, 220 pound body to take hit after hit during two starting years at Tulane where he played behind a Swiss cheese offensive line and yet still managed to throw for 6,754 yards, 60 touchdowns and, perhaps most impressively, only 27 interceptions for the Green Wave. The comparisons are intriguing. Coming out of college the knock on Favre was that he was too risky with the ball that he believed too much in his strong arm and natural ability. Check under the ‘Cons’ part of Losman’s pre draft scouting reports and you will see much the same thing. However, if you then look under the ‘pros’ category you will also see some comments that might remind you of you-know-who: “Strong arm, quick release, gets up after taking a hit, great leader, hugely competitive…” and et cetera et cetera. Not to mention the fact that both guys ended up in tough, working class cities where the fans wear their hearts on their sleeves and have a storied history of tradition and pride. This season, during Buffalo’s Sunday night, nationally televised debacle in New England, with the team resembling high schooler's and Drew Bledsoe looking like a rabbit in the path of an 18 wheeler, Mike Mularkey made the odd decision to throw his rookie lamb to the slaughter. Losman had been out since training camp after getting his leg broken on a freak accident involving a hit from cornerback Troy Vincent during practice, and when he stepped on the field at Gillette Stadium for his first taste of real NFL football, all eyes turned to the rookie. Joe Thiesmann, commentating for ESPN, remarked, “he needs some polish. He’s a little bit of a gunslinger.” These words were then proved somewhat correct as Losman finished his short stint against the world champions with a fumble and an interception in only five plays. Not a debut to be proud of, especially someone as fiercely competitive as JP Losman. “I couldn’t sleep for a couple of days after that” he said the following week. At the time I thought it was a crazy decision by Mularkey. Why does he decide to put the kid in there against the world champs, when the game is lost and the Patriots’ defense is trying to shoot fish in a barrel? I asked in a loud, incensed voice. But now, months on, and just 24 hours after seeing that same Patriots team win their third Superbowl title in four years, I am glad he did it. If the critics were right, and Losman did believe he could get by on his natural ability and competitiveness alone, he must be a little crazy to still think that way now. If that depressing night in New England had any positive side to it at all then it’s that Livewire Losman might just have realized that in order for him to lead the Bills against those World Champion Patriots twice next season, and to come out on top, he is going to have to use a lot more than the physical gifts God gave him… he’ll have to use his head, as well. But don’t fear (the pessimistic side of my Bills personality was starting to rear its ugly head for a second there) because I have yet another comparison to make. JP’s final regular season stats as a rookie were: 4 games (no starts) 5 attempts, 3 completions for 32 yards, no touchdowns, 1 interception, and 1 fumble. Brett Favre’s first season in the NFL ended up like this: 2 games (no starts), 5 attempts, 0 completions, 2 interceptions. Pretty cool, huh? Of course, Brett Favre was on a different team at the time, but still it does show that players like this always need to mature a little, to calm down and stop trying to do too much too soon. Put the bread in the oven too early and it won’t rise, you first have to be patient enough to let the yeast take effect. Favre also benefited from having Mike Holmgren as his mentor, a coach who coaxed the best bits of Brett out of him yet kept him on a tight enough leash that he wouldn’t go out and try to perform miracles from the word go. Coaching is so important with young quarterbacks that it cannot be overestimated. High draft choices come into the league every year and only a few of them ever go on to do anything of note. For every Big Ben, there are 5 Ryan Leafs (ironically, Leaf also drew comparisons to Favre coming out of college...) But one has to wonder how some of the quarterback busts could have been avoided had these kids been taken under the wing of a mentor who knew how to handle such players. Fortunately for Losman he has not one, not two, but three men of experience to guide him through his baby steps and put him on the path to sprinting. Sam Wyche has helped develop a couple of well known players of yesteryear named Boomer Esiason and Joe Montana, whilst Mike Mularkey and Tom Clements achieved the impossible by sending Kordell Stewert and Tommy Maddox (definitely not the Boomer and Montana of their generations) to Honolulu. If JP Losman spends as much of his time before training camp as possible in the company of these three men then he might just learn enough about the pro game to set him up for next season and send him on his way to a glittering NFL career. It might be too much to expect another Brett Favre (there is after all only one Brett) but after years of has-beens and also rans, the people of Buffalo may conceivably get themselves their very own Livewire, and with a tough defense, the number 1 special teams, an improving offensive line, an exciting young receiver, and a guy named Willis carrying the bulk of the load (something he is more than capable of doing), that may just be enough to send this team to the promised land. And believe me, if Losman shows the talent that Tom Donahoe saw when he invested a first round pick to get his body in Buffalo, the young man will become a star of the league. He has the looks to be an NFL poster boy, the personality to be a media darling, the dress code of a kid who has just been kicked out of a National Society of Surfer Dudes party for being too casual, and, most importantly, possesses the style of play that makes a naked bungee jump over the Grand Canyon seem dull. The legs, the cannon arm, the fire, the passion, the intensity, the lightening release, the hair (seriously, he has cool hair), the will to win and the swagger. These are things not to be scoffed at or ignored, but cherished and nurtured. And if Losman steps on the field during the Bills home opener next season and displays any number of these qualities whilst engineering a Buffalo victory, just listen to the decibel heaven as 80, 000 lunatics lose their minds, as well as their voices, from shouting those two letters, JP! JP! JP! And, I have to say, if this were to all begin the very same year that marked Brett Favre’s first season away from the league he excited for so many years, it would indeed be a thing of ironic, poetic beauty. The end may be nigh for an NFL great, but that doesn’t mean there is no future. It might even start sooner than you think.

He has alot of talent to work with....The bills D should be ranked high.

Be carefful of the traps. My eleven year old daughter wanted to go with 14 kids to the movies. I said only if one of the parents were there to watch over the kids. Especially in and out of bathrooms. She said one of the kids parents were going to be there. When I got there...the kids were all there but no parent. She begged to let her stay. I felt the pressure and caved in. But next time I will ask to speak to the parent on the phone before I say yes. As my grandmother always said...its better they cry instead of you crying.

I just blew up that picture....that guys hands are huge !!!

Im desperately looking for a video arcade to take a bunch of kids. There use to be one at FYE in eastview mall and at Jillians dowtown...but there both gone. The only one I can think of is advevture landing in Greece. If you know of any others it sure would be appreciated. I may bump this a few times to get better results...thanks !
