  1. You bore me. Stop beating a dead horse. Trent Edwards will start and JP will ride the pine until Trent is too badly injured to play. Trent is not injured too badly to play, hence he will still start

  2. The patterns of you spam posters is pretty clearly documented- fear what contradicts your own tiny little whiffs of understanding of football, and misrepresent any person's whose opinions you fear.

     

    Now feel free you get back to another few thousand meaningless posts with no original throughts of any kind, and keep on telling us like you are above about how the fact that not a single team in the football agreed with you idiots about taking a WR in round one "doesn't mean the talent at the position wasn't strong".

     

    No matter the evidence, no matter the facts, just keep on spam driveling because you and the other spam drivelers actual goal appears to simply be reaching 10,000 meaningless posts before someone eles beats you to it. Good luck in your endeavor.

     

    Thank you for advertising the ignore button. Without that reminder I would have forgotten I don't have to sift through a slew of your asinine posts in order to read an interesting thread. Oh and when I put you on ignore, I actually mean it. Unlike you, I don't spend lonely evenings sitting in my parent's basement apartment obsessing over what some other faceless guy said on an internet message board.

  3. Unfortunatly, I negotiate contracts all of the time.

     

    Rule #1, do not screw up the deal.

     

    In my view, the Bills and Peters have equal bargianing power. The Bills need Peters, Peters needs the Bills.

     

    You are right, the Bills give up leverage by being the 1st to bend.

    However, the Bills do have something to loose. If Peters doesn't show up and play, they do not get the benefit of his services (which in '06 they estimated would be worth about 3 mil per year). If the Bills loose the 1st two games this season, we can forget about the playoffs. Playoff games mean revenue for the team. And job security for the people calling the shots.

     

    If one side takes to hard of a stance, the other side starts to dig in. If I tell someone "I will give you nothing", I know I will be in for a fight. I think the Bills are overplaying thier hand.

    Eugine Parker has a reputation for letting contract negotiations get personal and holding his client out. When negotiating, do not discount the personalities of the individuals involved.

     

    If that's the case please remind me never to associate with any business you work for. Equal bargaining power? Are you kidding me? The team owns his contract. He plays football for a living. He cannot play for another team. He either plays and gets paid or he doesn't play and gets paid nothing. The Bills have lose more in capitulating to the demands of a player who is breaking team policy than in losing quality on the line.

  4. There is nothing to communicate. 29 days ago and counting:

     

    Parker: Jason won't play without a new contract this year. How about it?

     

    Brandon: No.

     

    Parker: Call me if you change your mind.

     

    Parker isn't returning calls from the media. I am reasonably confident he would return any call from Brandon. The reason their is no communication is, simply, because there is nothing to communicate. Not yet anyway.

     

     

    You're on this guy's jock so hard it's nauseating. At this point I don't give a damn about if he thinks he is owed more money or if the FO is being a hard@ss- This is a NEW offense and his dumb @ass wasn't in camp to learn it (thought I'm sure you will claim he had a playbook magically elivered and has been astrally projecting himself to practice and taking mental reps). You think talent will overcome that, look at Pacman Jones in Dallas, granted he was rusty, but his biggest adjustment was learning a new D. Peters missing camp makes the team worse, even if he eventually plays. So now the team is worse off because he wouldnt report-screw him.

  5. What I, and several others have been saying. The notion that the problem is Peters not showing up for camp rather than the team refusing to renegotiate a new contract is ludicrous. The issue is the extra coin Peters wants, not a failure to show a "comittment to winning" by coming to camp. The guy went from a UDFA to a pro bowl left tackle, I think he has all the devotion to duty that is required, and then some.

     

     

    Jason? Get to camp fat@ss, we're sick of this crap!

  6. I can't say I agree with you there. It was a blown blocking scheme and there really wasn't a quick check down. For me, old JP makes a stupid ass pass in that situation, possibly an INT. I agree that in the past he's held the ball too long. However, in that instance I think taking the sack and protecting the ball was the smart play.

     

    I just realized my last post may have sounded too negative. I thought he looked good. But, I saw some of his old poor decisions creeping up in plays like that one. He'd be a great backup anywhere, I just don't think he's a starter. I like Trent a lot, but I'm still unsure as to where he falls on that spectrum. I totally agree with the complaint above too though. Exactly what are we "saving" Trent for? He NEEDS more game experience. Why coddle someone who has never played a full season? If he can't make it through a preseason do you honestly think he is going to be a durable QB for us in the long run? He needs PT.

  7. I takes some real guts to post something like this on a board that accepts only positive viewpoints for the most part, I applaud your courage sir. History is not kind to coaches with that long of a record in the league and you couldn't have been more detailed in your analysis. If Dick Jauron suddenly becomes a very successful winning head coach it will be the most incredible shocking turn of events to me. It's strange to me why Losman got the boot to the curb so quickly around here, yet this board loves Dick Jauron (a guy with such a long losing track record) so much.

     

    You know what I find most amusing about this? You've actually managed to mask self-praise as a compliment to someone else. For this, we the Egomaniacs of America salute you. :lol::P:D

  8. You're the kind of guy that knocks ice cream out of a kid's hand cause he just shouldn't be that happy- life is tough. Let me get this straight. You are frustrated, so you come on here and bash everything about the team ad nauseum. Exactly what do you get out of that? I was going to put you on ignore, but instead I am renaming you Eeyore, cause you're simply the most miserable person I have come across.

  9. If you're not down low the view is terrible. I was fortunate enough to get into a suite that a friend of mine's company has. The view was NOT good, which is ridiculous. The partitions between the boxes were awkwardly built, so if you're sitting near the side the last 20 yards downfield look like you're looking through a fishbowl. On top of that, the prices are RIDICULOUS. They are supposed to spend like 100k just for the box. For that I would at least expect a good view. I did have a great time though.
