[Personal message to Brad Riter]

The w is silent.

W-R-I-T-E-R.

As in

W-R-A-D-I-O for a W-R-E-A-S-O-N.

 

Holy crap... the first person I've ever seen explain it the way that I do.

 

Brad hearts Astrobot, sort of.

 

I always say "Jerry Sullivan is a sports ________?" OK, so the "w" is silent. Let's just get rid of it. It's a weird argument.

 

The biggest pronunciation issue in our family is that people always call us "Ritter" as if we're related to Jack Tripper.

 

Streaming is an issue that I'd love to get to immediately, but it's just so far down the list right now. If it was my station, I'd START online and go from there but it isn't. I will push for it as much as possible as I did at my old station.

 

The good news is that our web guy is also our program director and he recognizes the power of streaming.

[Buffalo Signs Turner!!!]

It smelled funny b/c of "Buffalo football" but I clicked the link thinking "really, a first and a third and nobody called me?"

 

Well done.

[Is anyone else sick of Jeremy White?]

Being a project manager myself, I value hard working, team players with inteligence.

First, a confession. Yes, I'm only reading this because it's a thread about my friend.

 

That said, did you just play the "project manager" card?

No surprise, but WM will not return.

Moreover....If he's got another bad knee injury, do we pass on a strong runner via draft?

Also, blame the coaches for a dumb call.

J.P. calls the plays in the 2 minute drill.

[Jersey nameplate changes]

I'm in the same boat. I wanna change my RoJo to a Norwood.

[what a mess!!!]

Who are you?

I take months off between posts and you pick up right where you left off. Well done.

[what a mess!!!]

The fight was Nick Nicolau and somebody else... 1989, the classic Bickering Bills year.

732127[/snapback]

 

Nicolau and Bresnahan, if memory serves. As to the general vibe back then, however, I do remember Chuck telling me something like "we had guys hitting each other in the head with coffee pots."

 

Dysfunction can be OK when you've got a bunch of future HOFers on the roster... not so much if you're the 2005 Bills.

[Draft "Experts" - Their Blunders = Steals]

Probably because you refer to him as a "druggie" (IV) versus his correct standing as "Village Idiot" (VI). 

 

Maybe there's an angle there...Boomer has his cab driver....maybe you can have your village idiot.

(In my mind, I was just calling him 4 instead of 6.)

[Draft "Experts" - Their Blunders = Steals]

During the draft? He was sitting right next to me... and correctly predicting the Bills would select McCargo as soon as they traded into #26.

Dammit. I needed that phone call.

 

Mark IV let me down.

[Draft "Experts" - Their Blunders = Steals]

Mark IV,

 

Where were you when I spent 2 hours trying to make the exact same point on our draft show the other day? Nobody had my back except Jeremy White.

 

Well written and 100% true.

[how do you pronounce]

Nets-cash.

[Wr Brandon Lloyd]

Silly boy, like this. 

I <3 Brandon Lloyd.

625303[/snapback]

 

 

But I don't "less than 3" him, I heart him.

[Wr Brandon Lloyd]

Yeah he's really had stellar guys throwing him the football in SF . The guy makes some absolutely outrageous catches.

625256[/snapback]

 

I heart Brandon Lloyd.

[Larry Tripplet Signs]

Well said. I think you nailed it.

 

He is better than Edwards and not as good as Fat Sam.

624952[/snapback]

 

I like him as guy. He was a regular guest with Todd Wright on ESPN All Night before Todd left and left a good impression on me.

 

I think this matters... don't forget who is the GM.

 

Character... plus he can play.

 

Nice signing.

[Who should the Bills pick up at #2 WR after Moulds]

Jurevicius is older then moulds

 

So this deal makes sense how?

By what math?

[Marv Levy on WGR - Audio Link...]

I love how GR says they don't spit out the company line - meaning the Bills company line - when each and every one of them obviously got the memo that the company line this past season was to bash the Bills every chance they get.

I never get those memos. I hate that place.

Hi Brad, my name is Tom and I'm a Dick Jauron Song-aholic.    

 

After playing that song repeatedly off of TBD I couldn't get that song out

of my head. After 2 days the song was finally replaced by "She Got the Jack" by AC/DC.  Well...on my way to work this moring you had it playing and now its back in my head!

 

Thanks!

 

Dick Jauron, Jauron, Jauron!

Dick Jauron, Jauron, Jauron!

 

Sing it with me!!!

I didn't do it. Thank Jeremy White, as I assume he's the one who put it on the air.

[WGR: Voice of reason??]

Its a setup, for when they bash him later- those guys are way too predictable

Yeah, or I wanted them to hire Dick Jauron and I'm glad they did.

 

Not everything is a big conspiracy or a plot to trick you.
