  1. A nice set of hands? 10 fumbles last year. Let's see those hands when he is being hit and being afraid of being hit. Judging by practice is an interesting way to determine a nice set of hands on a receiver.

     

    At least wait until game action before you declare him cured of dropsys.

     

     

    that's why we play some preseason to see how he handles it.

     

    If the guy is going long and gaining separation, fumbles won't be much of an issue.

     

    You haven't seen this guy play for us yet... as I agree that is a concern, but he can catch and run like a MF

  2. I bought the preseason package last year, and it was worth it. $20 and you can watch any game. $5 a game if you are like me and watch just the Bills. I do find myself sneaking a peak at our rivals and teams on our schedule, which really makes the $20.

     

    Would you pay $5 to watch the Bills play a preseason game over a replay after already reading about the game?

     

    I can't remember how many times I was so PO'd about not being able to watch Bills preseason games.... SO for $20 its an easy spend

     

     

    dude, that is cheaper than Ralph. I just spent $20 on good burger and beer...4 preseason Bills games worth at least 4x that amount :thumbsup:

     

    what he said !

  3. DirecTV is not to blame for this issue.

     

    this was all Viacom trying to hold DirecTV hostage and force them to pay for more channels from Viacom that none of us want. If they would of caved DirecTV would be forced ot raise rates and we pay more for some crappy Viacom channels

     

    I personally support DirecTV's hard balling Viacom.. In fact I sent some nasty grams to Viacom for what they tried to do.

  4. Bottom line, no one knows anything about Michael Floyd's ability in the NFL.

     

    But when you're bigger, faster, and can jump higher than AJ Green, Start multiple years in college and will have Fitzgerald opposite you, odds are pretty good you might get a catch or two.

     

    Oh wait he got drunk and in a fight twice, and a DUI therefore he will never play well in the NFL.

     

     

    wake me up when your thoughts become reality

     

    My money says he won't have much of a rookie impact, and i damn glad we took Gilmore over this guy

  5. Not asking anyone to LIKE sharing our Bills with Toronto, but try to think with your head and not with your heart, just for a minute, and answer these questions:

     

    Can you honestly say you disagree with a business strategy that calls for regionalizing the franchise?

     

    Who are we to say "no" to regionalizing yet demand a payroll that rivals the big NFL markets? Do you really think you can have it both ways? Do we have a "right" to the Bills forever?

     

    Say YOU buy the Bills. What legitimate BUSINESS strategy for the franchise will you pursue that keeps the team in WNY long term, and does NOT include regionalizing?

     

    Discuss.

     

     

    They are not Bills fans so I don't give a !@#$ about Toronto and their money.. That is ALL I CARE ABOUT... The Bills need eveyr home game they can get and Toronto is just a 9th away game.....

     

    until the Bills raise ticket prices here to the point where people refuse to buy them the Toronto deal SUCKS

  6. the fact is there aren't that many larger markets

     

    Who is significantly larger then Buffalo and its suburbs and doesn't have a team ??? When you include southern Ontario Rochester, and Buffalo and its suburbs we are a decent sized market.

    there are a few options but most of the options are already close ot existing teams, or are more of a college football cities.

     

     

    A new stadium with better boxes would help, and ticket price increases are coming.... but if we can meet those requirements I think there is a solid chance Buffalo can keep the Bills for a long time...

  7. I like the framework of the new deal, pending what exactly the rookie wage scale looks like. 4 years until UFA is nice, because that leaves RFAs in play.

     

    Looks like the players tucked their tails between their legs in accepting only 48%. I know the owners don't get the billion off the top, but 48% is less than what they were getting previously.

     

     

    i think the players are shaving a little off the top, but the Owners were asking for 2 billion off the top when this started.

     

     

    I don't see it as a tail between the legs at all.. the players held strong and got a solid deal.. The owners wanted more and got less then what they wanted as well.. SO both sides made adjustments...

  8. forcing teams to spend an even higher % of just means they'll hand over more money to players who don't deserve it to make the limit..

     

    I fail to see the positive here.. but I guess we don't have enough Kelsay's on the team.

     

    I think 75% - 80% is a more suitable number so a team can save some reserves for a run in future years...

     

     

    I never thought Ralph was cheap with players. He just over paid the wrong ones

  9. Warner is right. The players did get a really good financial deal the last time and need to pull back a little bit.

     

     

    I have no problem with that... Just open up the books to make sure this is really the case... I would not trust the owners after they tried to sneak a tv deal past the players and walk away with billions... they also asked for way to much back in their original offers to the players.. owners need ot get real and realize they laid the gauntlet down when they voted 30-2 on the last CBA... 30-2 screams there is no financial problems

     

    I also don't believe the owners are hurting.. so as long as the books stay closed I'm not budging from the players side.... You want my support owners open the books for all to see and dissect.. if you can't do that then as far as I'm concerned you have NO argument at all... 30-2 is all i need to know without those books opened

  10. screw the owners.... they voted 30-2 for the last CBA... they negotiated a shady behind the scenes TV deal to get paid billions while they locked out the players. they refuse to open the books.

     

    if the owners want money back from the last deal which they overwhelmingly voted 30-2 then they better open the books for all of us to see. Obviously they are hiding a lot of stuff.. .Not to mention how many times an owner held a city hostage for favorable tax and stadium deals. AND nobody twiusted an owners arm and told them to pay the salaries they have been so willing to pay over they years. They could of said no deal and walked away from many of these outrageous contracts

     

    Open the books or STFU....

  11. Then maybe we'd draft a franchise QB for once instead of resorting to a 7th round pick to select a QB.

    I hope this topic is a little different than what's been up and running lately as it's sure boring being a Bills fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

     

     

    There where no franchise QB's in this draft after Bradford.... and if you thought there was any well then you just exposed your lack of football intelligence.

     

    Brown was a good pick up as well....

     

    and I would rather suffer through a 5-11 season in 2010 for a chance at a real franchise arm in 2011 where there are many better QB's to choose from.

     

    Plus Modrak now bows down to Nix who obvioulsy made the final decisions in this draft...
