  1. so by extrapolation, JP was only half a bust?
  2. Back in the early 90's (1991 to be exact), I began my subscription to Shout. I thoroughly enjoyed it for years. Sometime around 1993, I began to frequently receive it after the upcoming highlighted game was already played. Instead of receiving it consistently on a Thursday or Friday, it frequently showed up on Monday. Yet, It was still worth it's cost. By the late 90's I thought the quality had begun to drop. It ws shorter with less articles, yet I perservered. Then the great albino devil came to town and shortly thereafter, the magazine was changed to Bills Digest. Despite the mostly solid articles by Chris Brown, it contained less information than ever before, the draft issues stunk, and frankly it wasn't even worth reading even if it was free. The internet became a better, more timely source of info and when copuled with the considerable decline in the quality of the printed weekly, it died offically last year for me. This my friends, was officially killed by the albino devil in this fans eyes. I believe his paranoid control over information about the Bills sped up this once proud magazine's death. Yeah, I blame him for this loss as well as all the others that have been well written about on this board.
  3. While I agree that Moulds "pouting" at Miami, and his inconsistent support of the Bill's QB's may have warranted distain, I still have to feel for the guy who's already been thru so many QB changes, and now that his career is winding down, understanding his impatience (lack of winning) is not all that difficult. With that said, for him to remain a Bill, he must revert back to the pre-2005 Moulds relative to the QB position, and give his full support and effort to whoever that QB. Zero tolerance for further dissention.
  4. Wow, Kurt must be stronger than we thought. Good points.....
  5. Well said.....
  6. While Tony Greene was a very good ball hawk, Saimes brought the whole package. Sorry, Greene was not a strong tackler. Saimes was very good, if not outstanding at it. For those who aren't aware, Saimes (along with Johnny Robinson) were voted the All-Time best Safeties in the AFL. All-Time AFL Team
  7. Sure, in an uncapped situation, always go for the up-and-comer, but reality says that under a cap, there's only so much dough to go around. Every team has "stop" gap types that added wisely, contribute considerably to the success of many teams. The Pats have been picking up "stop-gap" players for years now and have done quite well with it.
  8. Save the one referenced kick, Graham wasn't bad for us, 6 of 8, long of 41.
  9. Attorney.... No personal disrespect intended, but there are many in this life that believe it might be a much better world if there weren't quite so many attorneys. Our society is already far too litigious as it is without more "creating" work for themselves. Yes, my personal experiences with attorneys have not been all that wonderful. Yet, good luck with your studies and may you be a positive reflection of your chosen field of practice. If politics is your ultimate goal, then I take this all back.
  10. Ah, the old flux capacitor....
  11. Great resume....jeez... Beginning to seem that initial fears of Jauron not being able to assemble a solid staff might have had some basis...
  12. Me three.....when did this happen? BuffaloBills.com doesn't have it and I'm still checking other sites, but nothing so far.... Confirmation?
  13. For anyone who misses the bipolar ICE, he's alive and well (as only he can be), over on BZ. His problem wasn't just being opinionated. It also included, belligerent, arrogant, vulgar, and just downright obnoxious far too often. He could often be a one man argument, taking both sides of a debate, and do so within a relatively short span of time. But hey, that's just my "opinion".
  14. In many games, especially a tight game or one with relatively equally matched teams, the difference in winning and losing very frequently comes down to a handful of plays. When there are 3 or 4 calls on plays that could and would seriously effect the outcome, then the complaint about crappy officiating is relevent. In SB XL, the questionable (I'll side with the "bad" calls camp) calls had a major play, if not key play, in the scoring (or lack thereof) of 21 points. That does not include any possible points Seattle may have scored when there completeion to the 1-2 yards line was wiped out by the phantom "hold". From February 5, 2005, Pittsburgh's NFL team will go by the name of the Pittsburgh Stealers.
  15. Helmets? They were wearing helmets?????
  16. I love the "Marv is our Savior" spin.....Yet let it not be forgotten that it was under Marv when our dominating O-line of 1990 ended up with the like of Jerry Crafts, Jerry Ostroski, Corbin Lacina, etc. Yeah....Marv will right the ship, not because that's what he always did, but ONLY if he's learned from his own past mistakes. Marv was very much responsible for the beating Kelly took the last 3-4 years of his career.
  17. here's one that I read this morning, and I didn't go looking for it either...Fox Sports
  18. I thought Fairchild was the Coordinator? What's up with that new clip on TBD suggesting Jauron wants him here? Jauron brings in Shoop......then it's definitely a horrible idea hiring Jauron.... Marv????
  19. Yeah, it did appear so, I'd love to see the replay yet again on that.
  20. Would have been better had the bogus hold not been called, yet Seattles tackle could also have been called for hands to the face (he got his hand under the Steelrs (Hagan?) chin and it was awful close. That would have been a less disputable call IMHO.
  21. Despite everything, it does make a nice ending to the career of the "BUS"....
  22. We always manage to get everything back to "TD"......he's gone, let him rot in helllllll.
  23. Sure, compound a crappy call, with yet another !!!
  24. Bad throw....damn.....I concur with Madden, that was NOT holding...
  25. Benny Lives !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
