Who cares about big splashes? Just stay boring and make the team better...

Maybe the Bills are interested in Buckhalter. Seems like he'd be the kind of smash mouoth back we'd be looking for.

There's a reason he's the forgotten man...

I like how he says that youth sports taught him discipline. What a joke.

Why does this board attract the worst spellers in the wurld?

Having him on the squad for a year already has to be worth something. QB's do not start their first year, so if we passed on the JP trade we would still have Bledsoe. Would you prefer that prospect?

I guess the next feature article will be about how the trainers go about obtaining the bear sperm for an artificial insemination procedure. No link necessary please.

I agree 100%. Sign him to a huge bonus that can be amortized over 10 years, keep him for 6 and then move on.

Arizona's DE Vanden Bosch visited the Bills this week. Coincidence? Sounds to me like TD is trying to get Arizona's DE Vanden Bosch + Shelton in exchange for Henry, possibly along with a swap of 2nd round picks. Maybe this is the tinkering that is being done to finalize this deal. It's pure speculation but isn't that what TSW is all about?

Well said. What a joke. Talk about appealing to people's deepest hopes. What a schmuck. By the way, passing resolutions is cheap, but actually building stadiums isn't.

I was in NYC. Made a beer run at the half to drown my sorrows. Listening to the game on the way home, the game began to turn...then I got drunk to celebrate.

The mention of Ben Coates made me recall how he used to make Henry Jones look sick each time we played the Pats.

Good god is it still snowing there? It was 76 & sunny today in San Antonio!

I really like the idea that our 3 starting interior lineman have a mean streak - Anderson, Tucker and Villareal. Hope it rubs off on big Mike & Teague/Shelton.

Oh darn. I was hoping I could quit my current job, start living the good life, and enjoy universal respect and admiration for my wisdom. LOL

How can I get a job that affords me enough free time to offer advice to others over the internet?

Teams that beat the teams they should beat - that's the definition of a playoff team.

Well said. Some gripe when TD makes moves, then when he doesn't. It shows you the shallowness of the TD haters. Or any haters for that matter.

I've been a manager for about 8 years - here's a few tips: Start out being fair but tough. You can always loosen up a bit later on but it's harder to get tougher if you start out soft. Forget about making everyone happy - it can't be done. Be fair. Be yourself - follow your own style with people. Know that you are on stage all the time as a boss. People watch who you talk & joke with and who you don't. Don't get too close to some people (the suck-ups) & too distant from others. Be willing to LISTEN to your employees. Your employees can't be your friends. Maintain some distance. You can be friendly withour being their friend. If you socialize with them, it compromises your ability to crack the whip when needed. Good luck.

Any fighter from Buffalo is doomed anyway.
