  1. Such a long ghostly rant -- and then there was another one!

     

    Short version of above: Wilson is incompetent and indifferent. The Polian hire was close to an accident. There's no rational evidence the team will not be very bad so long as Wilson is the owner. The only tangible thing fans could do to change the situation is not buy tickets and refuse to support the team.

  2. I think the Christian existentialist-personalist thinkers have more insight than Sartre and Camus. The French existentialists are still worth reading, though. Kierkegaard is insightful, but difficult and one has to work through what he is doing with assumed characters as authors, indirect communication, etc. I recommend the following:

     

    Nicholai Berdyaev, The Meaning of the Creative Act, The Destiny of Man

    Gabriel Marcel, Being and Having, Man Against Mass Society

    Christos Yannaras, Post-Modern Metaphysics, Relational Ontology

     

    The Greek fellow at the end is more a fellow traveler than a straight existentialist, but he's interesting and is working through a similar metaphysical stance.

  3. i have a feeling posluszny will be our second pick.we will draft adrian peterson or marshawn lynch first.we will then do whatever it takes to get paul.either a trade back into the lower first round or a trade up into the top of the second round.the rest of the draft will be for the best players available.go marv and go bils in"07

     

     

    This makes much more sense than drafting Poz at twelve, which is certainly a ridiculous reach. It is hardly likely anyone would choose Poz before the twenties at the earliest.

     

    I would take Okoye at twelve, btw, though the rb pick is reasonable.

  4. Croyle reminds me so much of Rob Johnson it isn't even funny.  They're twins, right?  C'mon, separated at birth, right?

    Do you mean appearance or playing ability and heart, because on the latter there is no comparison? Croyle would be a great second round pick, but only if we find a trade down situation that gives us an extra second.

  5. Wilson generally ponies up for players. It's coaching staff that he's on the tight side with. The Bash Ralph crowd is frankly ungrateful and stupid.

     

    A trade down may make sense, but as one poster shrewdly noted, you wait and see who is available at #8 before you make that decision. If the double trade down scenario were to happen, I would look at Eric Winston.

  6. They wouldnt lose too many existing Bills fans?? If you are from Buffalo or Rochester and you are still a Billd fan once they move to Toronto then you are officially a PANSY.

    Amen, brother!

     

    The reason you root for the Bills is their association with BUFFALO. Do you root for the Leafs because Toronto is close to Western New York? This kind of talk is for cowardly losers. No compromise here. You don't share your girl with your buddies, do you? Do you have a girl? If the NFL leaves Buffalo, screw the NFL.
