  1. You're right, of course. I just thought it was funny in your first post that you said "this could get scary," like the CBA was humanity's last line of defense.
  2. Yeah, they're still subject to the laws of the United States, CBA or no CBA.
  3. The new list of billionaires is out: http://www.forbes.com/wealth/billionaires/list?page=4 He's behind only Paul Allen and Stephen Ross, and behind Ross by only $100 million.
  4. While you're generally right, he wasn't the backup. http://www.totalfootballstats.com/PlayerQB.asp?id=403
  5. Mayock does say he thinks his most natural position is at 4-3 DE, not 3-4 OLB.
  6. If you believe your own numbers, then you should think about what it means to call $20/hour "slave wages."
  7. I'd pick Pegula because he's the youngest and richest of the group. Golisano and Jacobs both have black marks against them as owners, and I don't know much about Rich. Thoughts?
  8. No. 1 reason why I don't trust Nix and Gailey to get it right.
  9. For some teams, particularly Tampa Bay, he takes into account waiver-wire and UDFA contributions, but he doesn't for others. I think that would help the Bills' cause considerably.
  10. Then don't. The Jets and Pats already beat the Steelers in Pittsburgh.
  11. I think they are buried with him.
  12. He is who he is precisely because he's a no-talent ass clown. And for that, I respect him.
  13. Of course a safety is worth a top-5 pick, if it's the right safety.
  14. There's a big difference between the lunch and dinner, and he's going to the lunch.
  15. I'm always interested in your opinions. Let me know what you see.
  16. OK, my issue is comparing Metz and Olsen, who I think are very different types of tight ends. I think the team would be much better with a blocking tight end who can release and find the soft spots underneath, like Boss. Of the tight ends who played yesterday, Miller would be the most similar, more so than Olsen.
  17. If all you're saying is that it would be great to sign Kevin Boss, I'm on board with that. I disagree with just about everything else. Greg Olsen is nothing like Metz. Metz, himself, wasn't terribly important (In 1990 and 1991, he combined for 114 yards). Riemersma was a better tight end than Metz. Olsen is a pass-catching TE with great speed who ran right past a safety for his touchdown yesterday. That has nothing to do with the elements.
  18. I don't think you know what cherry picking means. Let me help you out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherry_picking_%28fallacy%29 Highlighting Olsen while ignoring the tight ends on the other winning teams to demonstrate that you need a good tight end to win is cherry picking. Of course, it would be better to have a good tight end than a bad one. That is true of every position in every sport known to man. Do you disagree?
  19. No question, the Bills have drafted poorly. But it's not like Erik Flowers or Mike Williams worked out much better. The problems with this team did not start in 2006, so if that's your point, then look a little deeper.
  20. I disagree with the point that you need a TE to win. Yes, Olsen had 113 yards, but the TEs on the other three winning teams this weekend, two of which were in cold weather, combined for 68 yards. I disagree with cherry-picking stats to make your argument.
