  1. I think contractually is an important factor now.  The Bills WILL NOT offer him a long term deal, and he is only scheduled to make 1.25 this year if i am correct (that figure has been posted all over the place here so you can double check me).  At this point if he gets traded to either of those two teams he is likely to get a long term deal that will give him a significant signing bonus and probably more than 1.25 a year.

     

    The way i see it is for him, he takes 1.25 this year if he is a Bill... or maybe 8.25 if he is traded (with signing bonus 6mil and salary 2mil a year for four years or something... i don't think he will get a Lamont Jordan type deal if he goes to either of these two teams).

    6 million dollar signing bonus, huh? Let's think about this for a minute, shall we?

     

    1) No GM was willing to part with a first day pick in a weak draft for TH.

    2) His name is still floundering about, with no takers.

    3) He has a history of spending all of his money, making a large signing bonus a big risk.

    4) He sucked last season.

    5) The winning pct. of game he has started is shockingly low.

    6) Off field issues.

    7) He has the IQ of a rock.

    8) Not so distant injuries

     

    There is NO chance of any team being stupid enough to give this moron 6 mil. to sign. In a year or two, he will more than likely not be in the NFL at all.

  2. I found 25 cents on my way to work this morning.  It was clearly the high point of my day, maybe even the week.  I think I'll combine it with 3 other quarters and buy something neat at the dollar store, maybe one of those fuzzy things with the plastic eyes that sits on the end of a pencil.  Good times.

    You may find this hard to believe, but I TOO found a quarter yesterday!!! It was a 1990, in not so great shape. I put it in a big jar, in which I save change.

    What an amazing coincidence!

  3. There was a grungy looking male college student in a small central PA college who went missing a few months back.....he had a train ticket for NYC.....for weeks there are no answers.....guess it was last week he was found swimmin with the fishes in the Hudson.

     

    Anyone hear about that story?

    Of course not......gotta keep focus on the blonde bimbo worm food down dere in Areeba...err Aruba.

     

    :P

    So yes, other people besides Elizabeth Dim and Natalie Hoaway do actually disappear.  And they also don't have blonde hair.    :w00t:

    Dude, after such a statement, perhaps it is time to take a long look at yourself.

  4. I'm just back in town after a week out west so I have missed a lot. Why is this choice even a question.  From looking at the web remotely I saw Verba was now available, but I have not seen any expressions of interest in him from the Bills at the logical opening we seem to have at LT.  Nor have I heard of any interest in him at the MW position of RT or any hint that JMac envisions MW as an LT.

     

    Contract would seem to tell the tale and MW is destined for LT based on the large investment already given to him and LT usually requiring that type of investment. However, MW may eventually (this year will tell) be enough of a player to be able to take on this duty, but his horrendous start last year and very good finish will still require another year of RT.

     

    I saw Verba a couple of times last year (against the Bills and once visiting a buddy in Cleve) and I would say his skill set though difficult to assess in a Browns O scheme which was befuddled was difficult to judge he appeared to be at least the equal of the young MW.

     

    However, Verba is getting older and MW has not yet hit his prime and is now moving in the right direction. Verba is a better player but MW is a far better investment.

     

    Is there anything that happened in the past week which in indicates the Bills priorities regarding Verba, particularly in comparison is short-term enough in their thinking that they would want to somehow replace MW with Verba?

    358678[/snapback]

     

    No, not at all. The thing is.....

     

    1) In a thread on TSW, Verba was quoted as saying that he is interested in playing for the Buffalo Bills.

    2) As I said, it IS after 6/1. The cap hit for cutting MW would be lessened.

    3) It is easier to get a RT than a LT, and generally lest costly.

    4) MW is currently a 9.17 million dollar hit, and has not yet played up to anything even approaching this level.

    Remember, I was asking for opinions of those who watched both, NOT making a statement. I am about whatever makes the Buffalo Bills a better football team.

  5. Let's get back on topic: Most liberals celebrate when a child molester goes free. There- your topic is re-railed.

    358646[/snapback]

     

    I repeat, I think that you should stop taunting me.

    I am NOT seeking dialogue with you on this forum. I have already offered you communication via PM.

    You should really stop (and of course be brave enough to portray yourself as who you are). It must really suck to be you. :lol:

  6. You? A conservative? No way. I don't think so.

     

    Anyway, logical and scientific thought is something I've always considered to be a conservative trait, so the relationship to Darwin/Evolution seems to me to be more conservative than liberal. The liberal ideal of tolerance, and accepting all peoples regardless of race, creed, or religious belief seems to align more with creationism.

     

    Oh, the hypocrisy in both schools of thought.

    358556[/snapback]

     

    Yes todd, there is hypocrisy galore. Wrt Ed, the kid has come a long way. He is also as funny as hell. :lol:

  7. You keep bringing up sexual acts between men, not me. Seems like you are a lot more fixated on homosexual acts than other people on this board.

     

    And don't get so excited as to think I'm "obsessed" with you. Your original absurd post  opened you up for attack- and I was far from the first to point it out. When you make it so easy to be criticized, who am I to move to the next thread when you've been such an upstanding guy to me?

     

    Wasn't there a cop in the Village People? You'd fit right in.

    358633[/snapback]

     

    OK Slugger, I will give you the last word. You need not throw another hissy fit. If you want to continue this via PM, do so. If not, hey....you win!

    I will leave you alone to sort out you issues.

    My advice? Have some courage. Be who you are.

    Good Luck.

  8. Indeed.

     

    I heard there was a suicide bombing in Iraq today. The Conservatives must be dancing in the streets.

     

    No wait, I'm sorry. But I'll say this, at least Conservatives were happier about it than Liberals.

     

    Does my apology make everything OK?

    358576[/snapback]

     

    Can't let go huh?

     

    Let's see....you are obsessed with me, and sexual acts between men. :lol:

     

    Good thing I have a sense of humor. Carry on, Villiage Person!

  9. It's not necessary to trade Henry, and not worth it for what's been offered.  McGahee has been a starter for two seasons(1 college, 1 pro) and suffered two major ligament injuries to a knee since his senior year in high school.  I'd rather have a proven 1000 yard runner behind McGahee than a whopping 3rd-4th round pick in next years draft.  This isn't a QB controversy, if Travis doesn't like it, so what?  And it's not unmanageable cap-wise either.  When he walks as a free agent, so be it.  Some people act like missing out on a potential middle round draft pick is some kind of disaster.  May well get one or two of those next spring in the form of compensatory picks anyway, after losing Williams and Jennings.

    This is one of the rare instances where I disagree with you.

     

    Travis doesn't want to be in Buffalo. The Bills do not need this type of distraction. Also, TD seems to love moving around in the draft. A pick for Travis and a comp pick or two could only help his cause. Not only that, the Bills lose almost every game in which Travis starts.

     

    The most important factor (as I see it) is that I do not want to see Travis whiffing blocks on pass plays and getting JP killed. JP has no experience, and needs all the help he can get.

    The Bills have invested their future in JP. He needs a back that can protect him, and enable his development. He does NOT need Travis Henry.

    Jmo.

  10. A legal action, as it were.

    UPDATE: Gov. Pataki came out against this legislation. He claims to be not comfortable telling people what to do and not do behind closed doors.

     

    Sounds good, but for about a decade, he was against the current smoking ban.

  11. Just let him go.  Yeah, he's being stupid...but it's best not to argue.  :doh:

    357732[/snapback]

     

    After having cooled off, yes, the post WAS stupid, because it implied that ALL liberals are glad to see him walk, which cannot be true.

    That said, I still have a feeling that not too many conservatives were crying tears of joy and releasing white doves with each not guilty verdict.

     

    He will do it again. Pedophiles as a rule cannot stop. The next time, I hope that they arrest the parents, along with this waste of human flesh.

  12. Is that the Bruce Smith with or without the flu shot? :doh:

    Funny you brought that up Fez.

     

    I remember being furious that he didn't play in that game. A month or so later, I got what had to have been the same flu as Bruce. It hit me at work. I was frozen walking from my car to my house and woke up shivering and sweating with sore muscles, in the fetal position.

    This, along with other common flu symptoms, lasted for the better part of a week.

    There is NO WAY he could have played!

    Did anybody else here catch that particular flu?

     

    PS: You are right, I have been taking a flu shot ever since.

  13. This is FAR worse than the OJ case. There is no explanation for sodomizing children, other than being a sociopath; someone who does not deserve the gift of human life.

    I doubt if anyone on this board has seen the face of a child victim, or heard the cries of their parents. They are sights and sounds that are not possible to forget.

     

    Liberals must cherish this verdict and hold it dear. There were enough of them outside of the court holding signs and crying tears of joy. One lunatic released a white dove with every "not guilty" count. Jesse Jackson is pleased.

     

    In any event, congrats to you leftists. That said, watch your children, please.

  14. Okay honest answer.  For any house getting public subsidies, it is under government control.  As such the federal government either directly or through contract services actually go out and are required to inspect the place once per year, in addition they are required to audit the owner once per year.  This is to protect the tenant and ensure the mob is not doing government business. 

     

    That said, while you don't send teams out to check for butts, these teams already are going out to inspect for problems the owner has to fix, they can easily note if they see cigarette butts inside the appartment.  If so the tenant is given a warning, and booted the second time, no more government handout.  No extra effort on the inspection teams, and easy to extract that info from the system where it is maintained. 

     

    I know a little about that subject.

    Do you know anything about riots? VA, I am NOT being a wiseass! Do you want to see housing residents and police officers possibly killed because of a stupid issue such as this? Do you think these people will say, "OK, evict me and my children because I was caught with an ashtray" and smilingly head out into the cold with their babies?

    Please, think it out.

  15. Thanks for concentrating on the one thing you could possibly answer.  Fished in...

     

    Fear the government that fears your freedom.  Your willingness to transfer so much to an entity that has shown so little speaks volumes.

    357057[/snapback]

     

    The average person would not have budged as much as one iota on this issue.

    VA did, and he is imo to be commended. I don't blame him for hating smoking. Sadly, smoking is not the real issue, but the distraction.

    Most people will not get it until it is too late, and each and every thing we do is regulated. This day is rapidly approaching.
