Bills Sign ex Raven FB Alan Ricard
Phlegm Alley replied to JoeF's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I like his reason for choosing Buffalo: Willis McGahee. It's a good vote of confidence for WM, knowing that you have a FB that WANTS to block for you. -
Not worth it.

I could be mistaken, but wasn't a hospital resatuarant voted the best restaurant in Boston at one point? I tried to vind verification via Google, but was unsuccessful in doing so. Can anyone corroborate this?

Bills Sign ex Raven FB Alan Ricard
Phlegm Alley replied to JoeF's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Kinda tough to earn your starting spot when you're not in camp at all. If/when he signs, I don't want the Bills to coddle him and give him his starting spot. Earn it like everyone else. -

I'm getting the impression that the ne regime is looking to have as much competition in camp as possible, giving the impression that no one is safe, and you are going to have to earn your spot this year. -
Nothing to see citizen, now move along

What if the guy was taking pictures of cops using brute, unneccessary force, a la Rodney King? Could he use those pictures to aid in the investigation against the cops? -
Whittner/Bills differing on length of contract
Phlegm Alley replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Bowen would be a better option than Coy. You can't win the job if you don't make it into camp. He is not earning the endorsement of his teammates either, I'm sure. -
Whittner/Bills differing on length of contract
Phlegm Alley replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Just saw that. At least Leinhart was in Arizona just in case he got the contract signed. Whitner is still on campus, probably milking his celebrity there for all its worth. What a fuggin tool. Get your azz to camp, becasue like Marv said, "the odds of him earning the starting SS spot are diminishing by the day." -
1) I agree that Meathead lost control of the ship and the inmates ended up running tha asylum and running him out of the HC job. Maybe DJ can right that ship, and provide a leadership role from the HC position, something that MM was unable to do because of his lack of coaching experience. Does this equate to more wins? I think it can't hurt to have a HC with previous coaching experience who is considered to be a "player's coach". Getting your players to show up everyday and buy into what your selling, is a great way to start. Which leads to your second point... 2) We have retained a good majority of our #2 ranked defense from a couple of years ago, and maybe (emphasis on maybe) we filled the tremendous void that was created with the Pat WIlliams departure with the 3 headed monster of Triplett/McCargo/Kyle Williams. The remainder of the players from the #2 defense of 2 years ago will have to learn a whole new defense in the Tampa Cover 2. It usually takes time to adhere to a new scheme, not only from a player's perspective, but also from a coaching perspective. Marv and Co. have begun to bring in players that fit their scheme. I think it will take more time than a season in order to run the scheme efficiently, and another offseason to bring in the personnel that fits into your defensive Tampa Cover 2 scheme. Another unknown variable to that #2 defense depends on how much the heart and soul of that defense, Takeo, returns to his natural form. 3) We do have pretty good depth in the skill positions, but there are players who seem to have a ton of potential, but have yet to prove themselves. Can LE step up and become a #1 reciever? Who is going to be our #2, PP or JR? Can WM step up and be the "best RB in the league"? Is JP going to mature, be a leader on this young offense, and silence the critics and prove that he CAN be a franchise QB? While we have a lot of "quantity" at the skill positions, we also have a lot of question marks as well. The Sabres are a good analogy, and I think that this team could surprise a lot of people, but I don't think it will happen until later in the season when the team shows they have learned the system, and show cohesion not only on the field with each other, but with the coaching staff and front office as well.

Koppen and Harrison will miss Bills game
Phlegm Alley replied to Kelly the Dog's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Any advantage that we can have working in our favor on Opening Day, on the road, against a divisional rival, who is one year removed from being called a dynasty, I'm sure we'll take. A win like that on the road, for a young football team, to begin the football season could set the tone for how the year is going to unfold. -
I am originally from Toga and would be up there this weekend if it weren't for obligations down here in the city I wonder if any of the players go up to Toga to check out the sights. There is certainly a lot of tail up there that is for sure. Bill Parcells found that out and built a house up there and I have seen him golf up at Saratoga National. I like the Giants in the NFC East this year, even though it is the toughest division in football, IMO. Great defense with the addition of Arrington. The only thing they have to worry about is getting lost on their way to camp

Crowell starting at Strong Side LB
-
5 year deal too so they got him for the max. Great news. Maybe he will be on the field for the 2:15pm practice.
-
Marv looked a little lost IMO

Welcome to Massachusetts You figured that with the $$ that they make, they would have their vehicle equipped with GPS.

Ron Mexico name generator Definite repost, but this thing is fun for the whole family.

Vive Ron Mexico

Just heard on NFL Network that the Titans signed V Young to a 5 year deal worth $58 million. There really should be a cap on rookie signings. He hasn't even taken a snap in the league and he is already getting paid top 3 QB money. Link

Bently Injured in Brown's camp

They just said on the NFL Network, torn patella tendon and he is done for the season. -
Bently Injured in Brown's camp
Phlegm Alley replied to Avalanche's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm starting to think that the Browns are cursed. Bentley this year, Braylon Edwards tore an ACL last year, the Soulja two years running, "the drive", and not to mention Modell kicking the city of Cleveland in the balls and moving the team to B'More... We are Bills fans, but it could always be worse. -
One thing this board despises, are people who try to exploit the civil court system by suing anybody for the most outlandish reasons. Link Unless Mashburn's foursome were intentionally launching golf balls at this guy, I cant see how they can prove negligence on Mashburn's part.

Solid "old school" Bills fan
Phlegm Alley replied to EndZoneCrew's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
OMFG--this guy is pumped. We probably could have used him in the second half of that game. -
Having lived in Rochester for a year and a half, I would say Buffalo for three reason: The Bills and everything that comes with the home games, bars are open until 4am, and the casinos along with Canada. Rochester is depressing--Kodak is a microcosm of what Rochester really is and I am so glad that I got away from the area all together.
