  1. LOL at least our 2nd stringers can hang with 0-16. Ok so we aren't THE worst team in the league...5-6 wins sounds right.
  2. We can wish, but he is Trents favorite so Jauron will keep him.
  3. Well its the starting OL and we still can't run even against the Lions. Langston Walker having fits with the guy across from him
  4. C. Bryan recovered. Wow we can hold our own somewhat against an 0-15 team...
  5. Nope he is scared to expose Trent in a losing effort to the Lions. God forbid Trent have to perform at home...
  6. Damn it!!! http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=4442805
  7. I agree the Owners finally seem to be majoritively on board with it all.
  8. John, if you don't mind, what is your opinion on how the is all going to go down? Do you see an uncapped year next year and a lockout, or are these guys going to sit down and get this thing done? I know owners and veterans both want a rookie cap. You can bet agents are going to be screaming bloody murder lol
  9. I hate to say it, but what can you honestly argue with even in the comments section?
  10. 'Until you see that the guy pulling the trigger is an average-in-every-way player destined to become a journeyman, bouncing from team to team like so many Chris Millers' Can't sum up Edwards much better huh? The whole thing was priceless
  11. Thanks, I saw your post on that thread and agree.
  12. The one thing that TD did that really pissed me off was say something to the effect John Fox needed to work on his interview skills or something like that. Who cares? Give me a flippin break. Gee Tom, how did Williams and Mularkey work out vs Fox in Carolina? Oh yeah fox is something like the 2nd or 3rd most tenured HC in the NFL with constant playoff appearances and a Superbowl appearance. He obviously interviewed well for Jerry Richardson.
  13. I am really suprised some lawyer or even an entire firm hasn't shown up and taken this just for the PR standpoint. I do believe it is illegal to charge them for the seats, take them, then re sell them. I just hope someone can afford to fight them. No as for as buying them, yep stupid but no one could see the economy downturning as bad as it did. As for as the skins are worthless. Dan should...well I just can't say it here. Bottom line this is pathetic and I am with you, I am VERY close to just watching College ball.
  14. Agreed. The 'Ralph is cheap' comes from traditionally not paying top dollar for a GM, Coaches etc. Things that actually come out of the operating revenue. Forbes says we made 39.5 in operating profit last year. What if he took say 9 million of that (combined with what he is already paying the current staff) and invested it in say...Ron Wolf and Bill Cowher? (again these are just names). No one can argue the man has been willing to shell out signing bonuses when needed. He spends what he has to with the cap and a little more. I haven't really had an issue with him not fully spending to the cap either. I think picking a singular GM, letting him bring in his own staff, and hiring a proven and somewhat successful Head coach, would do much to improve the morale of the fanbase. I know it would definitely sell more tickets than a TO would Yes I know Tom Donahoe didnt' pan out, but you can't just roll into a shell because of that one instance. I will also agree we as fans have allowed our displeasure to a little to far sometimes, but it's the TEAM we love more than anything. Wilson, not wilson, the fans will be BILLS fans for decades to come if all goes well.
  15. On another note, I read your article posted 9/2, what do you really make of the allegations of the NFLPA working behind the scenes with the owners? Is this real or musings of a disgruntled employee? Something just doesn't strike me right about her lawsuit.
  16. Gantt down there is usually on top of things. I think this first broke on his Twitter.
  17. I have a family member that does the marketing for Bank of America in Charlotte. I am waiting to get more info from them since they have worked closely with the Richardson's
  18. I agreed with your post below and fully agree with this one. I asked this simple question to which no one answered. If you know your fan base will sell out the stadium regardless of the crap team you put on the field, what motivation do you have to actually spend money to improve it? None. Western New Yorkers are scared of the team moving. I keep hearing 'I would rather have a crappy team than not have one at all' Well, Ralph knows that. 12th in operating profit last year at something like 39.5 million, but we can't hire a good GM or Coaching staff? Nothing changes till Ralph is no longer owner. Meaning....this team will NOT get better till he is no longer owner.
  19. I really wish more fans would get that. Ralph does not care about the plans of this team or what happens to it when he dies. It further proves he is only about the money and always has been. Win, lose he puts the cheapest product on the field, you can see this in his hirings. As for as the Organization calling Kelly and telling him to mind his own business, maybe they should heed their own advice? Last I checked this is America and if Jim wants to hold press to say he is putting a group together to buy the team when the time comes, he has every right to. It is more than apparent the team's future means more to Jim and others than it does to the Wilson family. And for the record, Wilson or no Wilson, the TEAM is all we fans give a damn about.
