I prefer to call it the "Miss BCS Pageant" because all it is is a beauty contest. Until D-1A college football has a playoff system, I will not care one bit.

UB Bulls look awfully good, but waiting to see how they do aganst the conference teams. I plan to catch the Rutgers game Saturday.

Thanks for the win yesterday!
But you guys have got to be pleased with the development of Losman. The guy is obviously developing. Those first two Evans passes were absolutely perfect - so much so, that I couldn't even get p.o.'d at the coverage.
Losman's going to be a good QB for you guys and if you ever get anything around him, we'll be dreading meeting him for the next decade, probably.
Don't worry, we'll find a way to f*** him up! We always do.

Is that really true? What schools are wooing him/have wooed him?
I can't imagine if, for example, a Big East team approached and was interested in him, and he chose to stay at UB. That doesn't make much sense. Building a winner at UB means making the NCAA's one time and playing a top school as a 12 or 13 seed. A winner at a major school means Final Fours. I can't see him not considering offers, so I guess I kinda doubt the validity. But I don't know much!
Nonetheless, go Bulls!
I don't think he was approached by Duke or NC State, but he has gotten feelers from large D1 programs.
You also don't seem to appreciate what Coach Reggie has done at UB. Their basketball team was as bad as the football team when he got there, like 2-28 bad! He took a team that had nothing, and recruited and coached them to an NIT, and within 1pt of an NCAA berth, in about 4 years.
That shows they guy can coach. He can make chicken sh*t into something resembling chicken salad. He would have no problem reaching at least a Sweet 16 if he were at a real basketball school.
But the fact he wants to do that at UB is something people should appreciate. Unlike most Buffalonians who look for their first ticket out of town, he wants to stay and make it happen here.
The only question is whether UB will be smart enough to pay him to keep him around. It's still a state school, and athletics are not that important at SUNY. They don't understand what having your school on ESPN does for your image nationally. Has anyone even heard of UB outside of NY State? What they need is for the alumni to make a fuss about it.

The biggest are the Sabres and the UB Bulls basketball team. The Sabres have shown tremendous effort and guts, defying the skeptics who predicted they would finish dead last. It must be very satisfying for Ruff, Regier, and Quinn, all of whom had fans and media calling for their heads.
The UB Bulls are an even bigger story. They are 7-1, going into their conference schedule. Their only loss was to nationally-ranked Boston College. Even after losing Mark Bortz and Turner Battle, this team looks like they will contend for the MAC title again.
Coach Reggie Witherspoon is a great story unto himself. A local guy, becomes a D1 coach after coaching ECC, and single-handedly brought the Bulls to respectibility. He has had major schools wooing him, but he wants to buld a winner in Buffalo.
So don't let the Bills ruin your winter.

Anytime you blow a 20-point lead in 11 minutes it's gonna suck. But what really kills me is that I spent many a post here at the Stadium Wall defending TD , MM, and this Bills team from the naysayers, only to have this team implode far worse than even the most negative poster ever imagined!
I was a good, optimistic, loyal Bills fan. I buy season tickets even though I live 500 miles away and only make half the games. I wrote nasty e-mails to Jerry Sullivan defending TD over Mike Williams, I gave everyone involved with this team the benefit of the doubt. I defended my beloved team to a--hole Pats fans week after freakin' week. And this is how I am rewarded?
Just when you think they can't sink any lower, they surprise me!

It's a very lovely card. Especially nice touch having Santa pose with the team. But instead of bring us all presents, Santa squated on our chimneys and left us a steaming pile!

Considering that 5-0 loss was the only loss in the last 10 games or so, I think we can cut them a little slack.
Gee, tough crowd! Especially considering how low our standards are for the freakin' Bills!

6-4 win for the Sabres. Unlike another Buffalo sports team, they don't fold.

4-4 in the 3rd...way to jink 'em!

The Gaughan article in todays News talked about how Ralph likes Mike Mullarkey, but I think it will be hard to keep him around with the way the Bills are unravelling under his watch. MM's whole NFL future is going down the drain in a matter of 6 weeks.

I think bring Marv back would be great idea...I bet Ralphie's thought of it.

any comments?

..and I think to myself "there's no way then can choke a loss with a 21-0 lead" and I get on the 4-hour flight to Boston.

Whether Mike Mullarkey is a good X's and O's guy, his ability to lead and motivate the Buffalo Bills is definitely in question. First the Sam Adams flap. Now we hear grumblings that Willis McGahee is mailing it in. Add to that a lack of leadership among the players, and you have the real mess brewing on One Bills Drive.
Of course I believe that $h*t flows downhill, and that the root of all the Bills problems start and end with Ol' Whitey himself. I'm sure the players feel just as let down by Donahoe as the rest of us.
I hope that Ralph is still capable of paying attention and is planning to address this in the off-season. Wilson will not say much now, but if this team really unravels the last 5 weeks, then I think he has no choice but to make some drastic changes at the top.

UB took care of Fresno State tonight to go 5-1, their best start ever. Their only loss to #8 Boston Colege on the road.
If you are going to the Pats game, UB hosts Rutgers the night before at Alumni Arena, why not catch a game? Tickets just $12.

In case you were living in a cave with the Taliban the last few months, Suzy Kolber of ESPN is doing a 3-part profile of the "brave" Tedy Bruschi playing football again. Gee...I was just think how they haven't done enough Tedy Bruschi coverage.

WORD! I would like to start a petition to get Smerals off the Wall of Fame at RWS. That turncoat doesn't deserve the honor.
