  1. The management team from before time began...Both Ralph and Marv were born before football was invented...heck, they might be old enough to have invented the sport. Consider then the "generation gap" between them and whomever the head coach would be. Mullanarchy was a babe in diapers to them...and when Marv sat down with "little Mikey" he heard the truth...a child excited about all the fun things he would do playing with his toys...

     

    lil' Mikey: "I've got some great new plays for next year...we'll do a double reverse on the one yard line...the defense will never expect that!"

    Marv: "What?!...now Mikey, just because you are head coach doesn't mean you will call any plays anymore...that's what offensive coordinators are for"

    lil' Mikey: "b-b-but the baby sitter always let me play with my toys!"

    Marv: "Well I know the baby sitter let you run all over the house...but Big Daddy's keeping an eye on things again and you're going to behave like good head coaches do"

    lil' Mikey: "Waaaaah!"

    Marv: "Mikey...go to your office!"

     

    So you know the rest...Mikey didn't want to stop playing OC and that was never acceptable...our octogens knew his calls sucked! So lil' Mikey moved on.

     

    Now both Sheman and Jaurosaurus are in their 50's...so that makes them both young men in the eyes of our Octosquad...the difference comes down to this:

     

    Jaurosaurus knows enough to respect his elders, and go with their guidance (and he should know he needs it with his dismal record as head coach)

     

    Sherman was a victim of being to smart for his own good...80 year olds like to tell others what they think and be listened to with fauning open eyes...they don't like being told how to do things.

     

    So for better or worse...lets hope our fossil is better than Fassel!

    :devil:

  2. CLIFF NOTES...LOL! The original post is brilliant...and I feel better now about Jaurosaurus as HC than I have all week...thanx!!!

     

    By popular request:

     

    Cliff notes begin:

     

    1. The media's interest is primarily selling papers and not necessarily the Bills putting up Ws and columnists advancing themselves.  Sully would seem to like the controversy caused by a collison of the competing interests of a owner who won;t live forever, a GM inexperienced at the task, and an assistant GM based in FLA as a means of selling papers.

     

    He would have loved if the Bills added a former GM who lost his job with the Packers when they stripped him of GM functions and reduced him to only HC work. Likely if we had added Sherman's considerable talents to the mix and he has IMPOSED his will and football vision on a mix where it will already be tought to converge these different visions and will, it would have made for a neat fight.

     

    2. I believe that Marv lacks GM experience and it needs to be supplemented, however, doing this by bringing in a former GM/HC who was bruised and left due to a reduction of his GM authority is virtually guaranteeing a huge battle at OND. This is particularly true if Sherman IMPOSES his will and vision on the guy who hired him and the guy who pays his check.

     

    3. Jauron has real limitations as shown by the losing record he had in GB.  However, his 13-3 season, him getting NFL oach of the Year in 2001 creates POTENTIAL that if Marv can supplement his GM failings with Modrak's skills, Marv pulls off the same management job of diverse and sometimes fighting personalities he performed in the early 90s (doubtful as a decade has passed), Ralph does not meddle too much in the football side where he has messed up things before, and Jauron simply does the HC thang (my guess he will badly need a supplement of a good OC due to his own failings) this can work for the Bills.

     

    As tough as pulling off this trick will be, the chances are far better that it will work than thinking that adding Sherman's skills to this mix will wotk.

     

    Cliff notes end.

     

    Sorry this was so long, but i was thinking it through while I was writing.  I am even more convinced after thinking about this that we are lukcy we did not get Sherman. If one thought TD and his psychoses were a soap opera think of what it would have been like while Sherman dealt with the bruises of losing his GM job while working for an inexperience GM.  Yuucchh.

  3. ***so I'm in a mood to post a odd rant....you are warned**********

     

    Let's have some fun and psychoanalyse about this...I love cats...and I'm ok with dogs so I can be impartial.

     

    If you say you hate cats...you're either trying to get a rise out of cat lovers or you have others issues that you are taking out on cats. A lot of cat haters hate women too...can't stand the independant attitude: "I DON'T NEED YOU" Let that sink in...

    I DON'T NEED YOU....and you want to be needed...which is where dogs fill that deep-seated need.

     

    Of course some men hate cats and love dogs becouse they are similar to the dogs they bond with...smelly, slobbery and leaving their crap everywhere...

     

    I've been a lurker here since 1998, so I'd give the benefit of the doubt on this one.

     

    Just remember that the Vietnamese have a solution for all those stray dogs out there...DINNER.

     

    Bon Appetit!

     

    Bio Fuel from Cats.  Dead Cats.

     

    Finally, a use for cats besides clay pidgeon substite.***

    ***To the easily offended cat lovers:  Bite me.  :D

  4. Let me settle this debate the only way I can (ridiculously). Spikes is the best linebacker in the history of the sport because he is also a bowler. Bowling is that X-factor that puts him head and shoulders above the rest. He know the virtues of being a bowling ball...and knocking down the opponents like so many pins!!

     

     

     

    We have had a few excellent ones over the years, but TKO has a combination of size, speed, skills, athleticism, playmaking ability, production and star quality that IMO is unmatched, and I have been watching the Bills since the mid 60s.

     

    He kills people, he's as good on the run or the pass, he's consistent, he has remarkable hands for INTs and picking up fumbles, he can be a terror on blitzes, he plays all downs and has the speed to be all over the field, he's good fundamentally, he's smart, he never lets up, he rarely if ever has a bad game, he rarely misses tackles or opportunities, he never misses a game, he's respected and known around the league as a stud, he scores touchdowns, he's made it to the Pro Bowl and he makes spectacular highlight reel hits and plays. And he comes across as a great guy. We really have never had that total package of consistent stellar, spectacular play.

  5. Hi Everyone,

    First off let's hope the Bills rock next year but I think we have about 2 years before J.P. gets eveything down and really puts everythig together.Not to worry  about free agency TD has everything under control..I have notice some Bills fans want every free agent out there..sorry but remember about the CAP.I was born in Buffalo and graduated UB in 1982 and moved to Pasadena,Ca .I am going to open a restaurant with REAL Buffalo food sahlen's hotdogs,beef on wick,webers mustard,real buffalo chicken wings(I really need help here as I am having a had time getting the sauce correct) bought some Anchor Bar sauce but No way I can buy it as it is cost prohibitive.Any input on what I should serve or suggest any idea would be appreciated.I will have direct TV so that Bills and sabers game will always be on!!!

    THANKS

    OK- The trick for the flavor is deep frying the wings in *peanut oil*

    Nothing gets 'em as tasty in the world as that.

     

    NOW- Add a "Garbage plate" to your menu...ever been to Nick Taho's in Roch?

    This anti-weight loss treat will so disturb So-Cal you will have the local TV news covering you.

     

    Now I hope you have written a biz plan...if not write one first...only 1 out of 20 restaraunts make it...you need a food court location where there is allready hungry Mall people looking for something new...Low monthly overhead is key as well

     

    I'm thinking of doing a pesto thing here in Seattle...so good luck and go for it!

  6. Hey Navy...I don't know if this will work...but it's why the other cat recommened OJ....and I thought it was crazy at first too...until I tried and it worked for my heartburn. Eat a dill pickle. No joke. Why? Because just like the OJ it's acidic - and that's actually what your tummy wants.

     

    See what's ussually happening is your body is still trying to digest FATS and feels it doesn't have enough acid allready to do the trick (the mess hall food could be causing it- I'm sure it's not gormet quality)...so it keeps producing acid trying to breakdown the remainder of your dinner.

     

    I used to use tums too...but try this before the pink pill next time...worth a shot.

     

    failing that a three day fast and cleanse might help...

     

    (my heartburn is caused by cheap vegatable oil...switched to olive oil and I could drink the stuff without any problem)

    oh yeah...excessive salt causes heartburn too

     

    Good luck!

  7. OK - I've been there and done that... so you need to stretch your legs...

     

    If you get out and force yourself to walk on them outside for a half hour each night (and be sure to do some more streching before bed, and in the morning)

    you should be ok. It may be tough...but after you have a few it will be easier.

     

    And do make sure you get as much water as beer....better to be like a racehorse than a prune!

     

    :D
