i think writing poems during squish the fish week is hilarious! The poems are great as well! Makes me proud to be a Bills fan...Is this idea of writing sports haikus original to the Bills? How long has this been going on? You guys! Take a bow!
Smug little fishy
Shula to tuna: !@#$s!
Slam, stomp, squish the fish

McKelvin looked bad all preseason, despite his two picks. Last year, he often displayed rare talent, so he probably wasn't a bad pick. I think what we got here is a sophmore slump.

Top 15 Reasons the Bills Win Sunday
15. Brees won't be so frigin' accurate at the Ralph.
14. This year, so far, Donte' Whitner doesn't suck.
13. The Saints are playing back-to-back road games.
12 . Aaron Maybin's coming-out party is set for September 27, 2009!
11. The game is blacked out in my area.
10. The Bills' special teams are overdue for a big game.
9. Lee Evans is overdue for a big game.
8. Jeremy Shockey is overdue for a big injury.
7. Who the hell is Mike Bell? (Now Fred Jackson, there's a name!)
6. The Saint's think we suck! (Years spent fooling them.)
5. Small Brees, small hands, wet ball... Not a good combo.
4. TO won't drop balls three games in a row... will he?

alright then...

Why not line him up against the TE instead of Ellison?? He's got the ideal size and speed that matches up well against a lot of the TE's in the league. I was big on him since the draft and all of preseason. He's kinda like maybin, in between positions. Any thoughts??
I thought we drafted Ellison because he can ccver? As bad as he's being beaten by TE's - he's playing much better than last year....at least this year, you know remember him playing after the game....
The Bills and their small & slow LB's....how delightful!
-
I just realized Angelo Crowell didn't play against us, I thought he was a good pick-up for TB. Anybody know his story?
-
Losing on a fluke pass at the end of the game, or fumbling it away like we did?
The Bills cuz we also lost our MLB. The Bears and Panthers had particularly painful losses as well. With the Bears losing their probowl MLB for the season and carolina because of grownig concern that Delhomme is shot.

Does anybody know who was inactive for week 1?
If so, where could I find this info?
thanks!
GO BILLS!

I play this game with my dog where I hold his toy just over his head and then say, "Ya want it? Ya want it?" Then I slap him in the head.
Now I know how he feels.
LADIES & GENTLEMEN, MICHAEL VICK! MICHAEL VICK HAS VISITED OUR WESITE! GO BILLS!

I missed the game yesterday (thankfully), but I saw that Byrd got a pick. Granted, it was probably against Detriot's 3rd string. Nonetheless, I was wondering how he looked - and if there is any chance he may be starting at FS this year. Thanks.
It was the 3rd string. He's missed way too much time and he looks awfully small and thin. I hate donte (late miss) whitner as much as the next guy but I doubt it....
-
I wish the dough-boy lotsa luck, and I guess you never know, but giving the guy who coaches Edwards a promotion doesn't sound like a good idea...
-
Have you seen the video that shows Hitler talking about the Bills signing T.O.?
nooo....
-
Did anyone ever point out that Wood and Levitre are backed-up by Brandon Rodd?
Has anyone talked about a good nickname for our O-line?
Too bad Rob johnson is gone...they couda been called Johnson's Johnsons...

Hope? Let me tell you something, my friend. Hope is a dangerous thing. Hope can drive a man insane. It's got no use on the inside. You'd better get used to that idea.
you have to have hope if you're from Buffalo....

I thought that Dick was head coach of Detroit as well as Chicago
No soup for you!!!Dick held the title of interim head coach....

Thats an incredibly optimistic view of the season. There is always hope in the NFL most teams (The Bills are included in this) are 8-8 teams who depend on in game luck, avoiding injuries, and unexpected production to add games or losses to the end total.
Your analogy to the 2007 Giants fails in three reasons
1- Eli Manning and the Giants had been a very good team going 10-6 and 11-5 the two previous seasons (They made the playoffs both years and won a division title).
2- Coughlin was a much more successful coach than DJ (Good runs in Jacksonville and the aformentioned back to back playoff appearances with the Giants)
3- The combo of Strahan, Osi, and Tuck are so much better than what we have (Even if Schobel returns to form and Ellis and McCargo contribute and Maybin plays well) that the comparison to our D and the Giants fails. Osi and Strahan were beasts off the edge and when Tuck stepped on the field he was dominate. Schobel even at his best was a bit behind those guys and I doubt Maybin in his rookie year is going to as good as any one of those guys (Same goes for Ellis)
The Giants went 8-9 in 2006.

Ten seasons ago, the St. Louis Rams came out of nowhere as undrafted, third-string quarterback Kurt Warner led the Rams to victory in Super Bowl XXXIV. Two years later, the Rams made it back to the big game, but they were thwarted by an even bigger Cinderella in Tom Brady's New England Patriots. There is always hope in the NFL. Those facts alone should be enough proof for any Bills' fan; that in a given year, any team can win the big one. But, if that's not enough for you, it happened again just two seasons ago as the New York Giants came out of left-field to upset a Patriot dynasty and win Super Bowl XLII. Moreover, I believe that that 2007 New York Giants team, bears an uncanny resemblance to our 2009 Buffalo Bills. And if those G-Men could do it, why can't we? Let's look at some of those resemblances...
- Like Dick Jauron, New York Giants head coach Tom Coughlin was entering into his fourth year as the Giants head man.
- Like Jauron, Coughlin was in his second stint as an NFL head coach.
- And like Dick is now, Tom entered the 2007 season sitting on the NFL's hottest seat. Rabid Giant fans wanted him out, and the infamous New York media was looking for mistakes.
- Eli Manning was entering his third year in the league, and many fans questioned whether Peyton's little brother had the right stuff. Sound familiar?
- The Giants had superstar wide-receiver Plaxico Burris who sometimes feels like a nut, the Bills have the king of superstar wide-receivers who sometimes feel like a nut in Terelle Owens.
- Three-headed running-back monster Jacobs, Bradshaw and Ward meet three-headed running-back monster Lynch, Jackson and Rhodes.
- Over the course of the 2007 season, the Giant's developed an extremely successful defensive-line that came at you in waves. Should John McCargo and Chris Ellis be able to make meaningful contributions and Aaron Maybin live up to the hype, the Bills' defensive-line would go nine deep which would allow them to give it their all on every single down. 'Course, the New York Giants had good defensive-linemen, but let's ignore that for now.
- And last but not least - both teams started Kawika Mitchell at
weak-side linebacker.
So, should the Bills look sloppy this weekend in Green Bay, or God forbid, get blown out on Monday Night Football in week one by Bill Belicheat and those dizzy-freakin' Patriots, don't lose heart Bills' fans, there is always hope in the NFL.
Should The Bills Win On Sunday...

If I asked you a month ago, could the Bills win in Miami minus Paul Poslusny, Brad Butler, Demetrius Bell, Leodis McKelvin, Donte Whitner, Bryan Scott, Derek Schouman and John McCargo, chances are you would reply, "that'll never happen." Then if I said, "suppose it did, could they win?" You'd think about a while, look over the list and then say, "without our two starting tackles! Are you kiddin' me? The starters are way too iffy, never mind the back-ups! And no Poslusny? Our D's captain? That's wedicorish! And minus 3/4 of our starting secondary? And add Shouman and McCargo to boot? No way, man. No !@#$%^ way!"
Wouldn't you?
