Round 3: Sale of the team
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to Beerball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I heard it the other way, that he plans to move Toronto to Buffalo and then move the Maple Leafs down to the AHL as the Sabres farm team. -

TRue forgot about Benson. So there is one out there at least. -
Round 3: Sale of the team
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to Beerball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
OK, so how did that work out when they are in different cities?? Maybe Seatle and Portland were considered close enough and no other competing teams in Portland. But St Louis and Denver?? How's that work? -
Round 3: Sale of the team
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to Beerball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So I know there's been pages of threads/jokes about whether TP can own the Sabres and the Bill's. Not that I feel this would make any difference, but just curious and got me thinking about it, does any NFL owner also own another sports team? What about other sports?? Seems there are some dual hockey-basketball owners out there, pretty certain the Rangers and Knick's are still both owned by MSG, but any others? What about in baseball or football? Of the top of my head, can't think of any? -
But what about Dinsaur BBQ? I no longer live in wester nNY, that is one place I do miss!

Gee I though this was a thread about some new Bar-B-Que joint that opened!

Fantasy Football Help!
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to Braedenstearns's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Typically choose RB's with your first and maybe even second pick unless you're drafting late in 1st round, then go either for a great QB or WR You know it's funny you mention that as I was drafting my team last week, I was getting nervous as I seemed to be selecting a high percentage of white guys. -
Make Wall of Fame Right
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to jahbonas's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So two good years out of five. What he did in Seattle may prove he was very good coach, but unless it was done in Buffalo, it has no bearing IMO of whether he makes the wall or not. If he had four or five of ten good years, I'd say yes, but reallty don't think he was here long enough -
So are you saying they shouldn't re-signed Carpenter and stuck with Hopkins who BTW has never kicked at all in a regular season game? Or do you blame the FO for drafting Hopkins knowing full well he was going to get hurt in training camp? Cohen has been on like six teams in three years, do you think there may be a reason for that? And he's trying to crack one of the deepest best positions on the roster. But hey don't let facts get in the way of bashing the FO.

Knox was here what three or four years?? Yes they made the playoffs some, but not here long enough IMO to make the wall -
Tight Ends Starting to Become Available
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to The Dean's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The only issue I have with him, seem to recall him him getting a number of holding calls against him at rather critical times. If it were Chandler who's considered an average blocker I'd say OK fine, but for the guy who's on the team for his blocking abilities seemed to get called too often. -
Bills' Cuts to the 53 Man Roster Limit
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So we have a gay punter and one coming from San Fran?? Do they plan to be roommates? -
First off, I'm a bit surprised they cut him from everything stated and seen. But to rip the Bills from office as another example of being clueless is even a bigger example of being clueless! He's been on like six teams in about three or four years, and DT is one of the deepest positions on the Bill's starting with two pro bowl players and yet the Bill's were idiots for cutting him. LOL To those ripping this cut, get a life and stick to something you actually understand as football knowledge obviously is not your strength.

Chicago's Defense- Why it Ain't so Great

This thread can't be true. I picked them for my fantasy team! -
The quarterbacks or the coaches
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to die hard bills fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
On top of Vanilla 4 out of 5 different O-line players from week prior per position, plus no Sammie. Lets give the O-line two weeks of playing together same guys in same positions. -
Yes and you for one can easily reconginze HC material. That's why you're posting on a message board. If the new owner is TP, think you're going to be real disapointed. Likely the end of this year the only change I see coming if the Bills don't show improvment is they dump Hackert and bring in a new OC. Unles the new owner has a hand picked guy he's real close with doubt either RB or DW go anywhere and likely Marrone will be given at least one more year. And likely thye'll blame any lack of improvement by EJ on the OC too, so doubt they'd give up on a #1 pick after two seasons. Probably would see a new OC and bring in an experienced backup and have a competition for the job.

It was reported that Moorman has been punting left handed this pre-season to save wear and tear on his leg. -

Does anyone know if Roger Godell knows that TP owns the Sabres? Did he have to dsclose that? -
$23,661,443 in Dead Money
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to papazoid's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So how does that compare ot the other 31 teams and how's it compare over a four or five year period? Wouldn't shock me to see that many teams have similar amounts every few years. I will grant you it's easier to accept when a team was doing very well, then starts to grow old, so you make some cuts. In this case that's not what happened -
If we could go back to the draft
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to jletha's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So is the coaching staffs fault that Glenn wasn't ready at the beginning of camp. And it turns out that the rookie who filled in for him did so well, it quickly became apparent it didn't make sense to sit him when other spots were also struggling. The only thing you could blame the coaches for at all was their 2nd round pick not looking very well, but he's certainly not the only 2nd rounder to ever fail. While all the changes are hurting them right now, give them two weeks ot have the same players out there in practice and lets see how they look in the regular season. Even then, while you hope they look supper on Sept 7th, it still may take a couple more weeks for them to really gel. -
Please watch this! Especially at 2:45
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to PO'14's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Well the other thing too is as the announcers kept saying, Tampa is very similar to Chicago so why show anything that the Bears could use. On the hand absorb what Tampa is showing you.
