cnn.com is reporting that the woman found shot to death with him was his girlfriend, not his wife. Were he and his wife separated? still very sad any way you look at it, and the NFL lost a great player and the world lost a great person.

An absolute class act both on and off the field. He was an invaluable member of the NFL. May he rest in peace, and condolences to his family.

Does anyone else feel weird about wearing another person's name on your back?
I hate it.
I have to agree with you there. Back in college I had an Eric Moulds jersey, and after that, I just started buying the personalized jerseys. However, this year, I did break down and buy a Terrell Owens jersey.
I've never worn a jersey from any other team, although I have thought about getting the white Carolina Panthers Steve Smith jersey...

Our team does it's shittting right on the field.

I think La Nova's is really good...I am really not a big fan of Bocci's either---to me it's just OK
wax museums are mostly on the Canadian side, which would mean they need either passports or enhanced driver licenses...however I believe there are a few on the American side...
also if you are in Niagara Falls and get hungry, I would recommend the buffet at the Seneca Niagara Casino---an unbelievable amount of food...
wholeheartedly agree with you on LaNova's. Haven't found wings better to this day. Every year when I come back to Buffalo to visit, it's the VERY first place I go to! My mom is a religious Anchor Bar fan, but I'll take LaNova's any day....for Pizza too.
On a side note, I wouldn't recommend having La Nova's wings Fed Ex'ed to you though. I tried that once, and they tasted NOTHING like the ones in the store.

Please send me some of whatever you have been drinking. We have gone a decade without a quality offensive line and now we are starting all over again. Not one player will be in the position he played last year, including the draftees. We will be treated to the "When the Oline gets Enough Time Together I Think They Will be Fine" song from Jauron all preseason. Then we will get crushed in game 1 and the song will be "But They're Improving." I wish it weren't reality, but it is.
Maybe I've been drinking the kool aid too long as well, but I just don't think we'll get crushed in this game. I really feel, along with many others, that our best shot to beat New England will be in game one. I think the value of having TO in the locker room, not to mention on the field, will get other guys really revved up. You know for a fact he's going to bring his A game, and I do think Brady will be a little rusty. I go into that game with a full heap of faith that Buffalo can pull off the upset...
-
I have seen him get pushed around the field but never flying around the field. Don't get why some like him so much. Too small and I just don't think he is that good, even for a back up.
I gotta agree with you on that one. I honestly can't recall more than one or two plays where he's actually been a difference maker on the field, i mean in a positive way....
we definitely could use some improvement in our linebacking corps...

Tell the other three fans at the game Buffalo says hi.

I definitely think his weight is one major reason for his drop in performance. I also think his attitude sucks also. There is a reason why he has never been a captain. From what I hear, he is somewhat introverted and nasty. Not the typical team player who will be respected by his peers. I also think he is near the end of his rope. IMO I dont think Aaron Schoebel would start or even make it on half of the teams in the NFL.
He doesn't seem to be very friendly or engaging. Luckily for us, he doesn't have to be. I can't really argue with your statement that he might be nearing the end of his rope, but after this season, we should be able to either argue for or against that point.
I disagree with you though, I do think he would be a starter on most NFL teams. (when healthy)
-
Aaron Schobel in my opinion has not even come close to earning the money we gave him a few years back. I always wondered if it had anything to do with his dramatic weight loss. His stats from 2002-2006, 8.5, 11.5, 8, 12, and 14 sacks. Then in 2007 he dropped to 6.5 sacks and then in 2008 when he was injured after 4 or 5 games, 1 sack. If you look at his weight from his rookie season up until 2006 he played anywhere from 262 to 264lbs. In 2007, 2008, and 2009 his weight is recorded at 243lbs. He lost 20lbs. Does anyone think there is a correlation between his recent weight loss and his performance. Did he sacrafice to much strength to try and increase his speed?
I think you make a valid point. 243 is, IMO, a little light in the arse for an every down defensive end. I certainly hope that what you're suggesting is the case rather than what could also be true, and that is just maybe his skills are declining. Let's hope 2009 sees him regain his old form. I'd be happy with 8-10 sacks from Schobel this year...

Personally, I don't think these atheletes realize just how good they have it, and how much of a privilege it is to play in the NFL. Many of them make more in a year than many people will see in their lifetime.
Hell, if you told me you'd pay me a million dollars a year, I would avoid ANYTHING you told me to! I don't give a damn WHAT it was!

Seth McKinney wasn't with the Bills last year.

Yup, 133 and 134 are the only sections I will sit in as well. (If folks want to call me a snob so be it but since I go to one game a year I'm allowed to be picky.) As much as people rave about other sections, what you see on StubHub is that fewer seat holders in 133 and 134 sell their seats as compared to the rest of the stadium even though they command more money (I guess because they are the real old timers) so you have to be persistent. I bagged 2 tix in Sec. 134 about 2 months ago, but I'm sure if you keep looking you will be OK.
Absolutely. if you're only going to get to go to one or two games a year, then by all means you should sit exactly where you want to sit. I'm sure if i just be patient I will find some good seats...

Is this guy high??

lolol i saw that! I check stubhub daily and when i saw that i thought maybe someone was selling season tickets lower level 50 yard line 15th row or something! It's gotta be a typo. No one could be that dumb....
-
I think his point was, for Bills fans who live halfway around the country and get to one home game a year, paying a premium to get good seats is not really an issue. My initial posting was intended to refute the idea that you can only get crappy tickets from StubHub.
Before I moved from WNY I had season tix for 10 years, so I understand how longtime season tix holders would get a kick out of someone paying a premium to get good seats. But for me, treating my son to one game a year by getting a pair of seats for the opener on the 50 yd line, 40 rows up for under $400 means that StubHub works for me. Paying the premium is no issue because without doing that I can't get close to those seats.
I definitely agree with you. Stubhub certainly isn't the cheapest website out there for buying tickets, but I prefer it because it definitely allows you to get great seats. I live in Atlanta, and every year I go up to Buffalo and take my little cousin who lives up there to a game. Last year we got to go to the Monday night game against the Browns, and we had lower level seats, in section 133, also about 40 rows up, and I got two tickets for about 400 bucks. It was well worth it. Ebay has prices that are lower, but it's tough finding the really great seats on ebay.
We're planning on going to the home opener this year, but right now, they only have a couple seats in sections 133 and 134 (which are the only sections I want to sit in), so hopefully as the date gets closer, there will be some better pickings on there....

how. I am dog. I come in peace
the pale face, he takes our Buffalo and he takes our land, and he feeds us whiskey so we go crazy and howl at the moon. He replaces our arrows with firesticks so we will go to war against his enemies.
So I come to you now in search of answers, will TO, the mighty warrior from the south help bring back the mighty Buffalo and save us from the pale face called belicheat and the evil spirit they call shady Brady.

I play fantasy football and I'm sure there are a # of you who do as well. Westbrook is still having problems with his ankle. The same ankle that was giving him problems last season. We are over 5 months removed from lsat season and it's still keeping him out of practices. Sounds like this is just another on the long list of issues this injury prone, but very productive when healthy, RB has had. Sounds like Lesean McCoy could be a good option this coming season.
The funny thing is, I always end up with a pretty decent draft position in my leagues, and for the past 3 years, Brian Westbrook has been available when it comes to my pick...and every year I pass on him. and every year he puts up stellar numbers...
sad thing is, this year, i'll probably pass on him again...

Strategery.

He is a cheap cheap fat bastard ....... BUT...... this team needs a little bit of an edge. We need to add some toughness and grit to the D. A guy like him next to Stroud would be outstanding but lets be realistic the Pats are going to Franchise him and either keep him or make sure they get to direct where he goes so he does not end up in a place like Buffalo.
that i can't argue with either. There's no doubt he'd be an upgrade to the d-line, and a significant one at that. I would have to put my personal dislike for the mofo aside. Wow, just hearing Stroud and Wilfork next to each other...man that's pretty sick.
I still don't like the dirty fat SOB though.
-
Plus 1--he's easily the dirtiest player in the League, IMHO, and I wouldn't want to see him in Bills uni. He's a POS--that hit on JP was so blatantly intentional it wasn't funny and then for him, after a season full of similar garbage (who can forget his trying to poke out Brandon Jacobs' eye as well) gets a slap on the wrist from the Commish after bringing his wife to the meeting. If he played for anyone else he almost certainly would have gotten a suspension at that point (he'd been fined 4 times that year), but, oh, no, can't suspend a Pat* going into the undefeated playoffs. The favoritism shown to that team makes me puke. Remember, too, that was the year Roy Williams was actually suspended a game for his horse collars, much less, IMHO, than what Wilfork had done up to that point.....
My sentiments exactly. I can't believe he got his wife to put together some bogus DVD to give to the commish, and then on top of that it actually worked!!! unbelievable. yeah, I definitely can't stand Wilfork. Good player or not, I just wouldn't be jumping for joy if we signed him....
-
Excellent logic. Deny the Bills a great tackle because of something that may/may not have been intentional.
I never said he wasn't a good DT, not disputing that at all. All I'm saying is that the guy is a dirty player, and I think you are probably one of the few Bills fans, heck, football fans period who doesn't think that shot he took at JP wasn't intentional.
I am as diehard a Bills fan as they come, and want nothing more than to see the Bills succeed. And if by some chance he WERE to come to the Bills, I definitely wouldn't cry about it. I just don't like dirty players, especially ones who play for the Patriots, and ones who intentionally try to seriously hurt our players.
-
As good of a DT he is, I personally wouldn't want to see him in a Bills uni. I can't stand the fat bastard after the cheap shot he pulled on JP. He's a dirty, dirty player....
-
7-9 is ok even, he will survive. It is a wonder that he does not read some of these message boards and do the right thing, resign. Matt Millen redux.
I just can't believe that if we finish 7-9 again that Jauron will be back. No way, no how. RW can't be that pressed over money that he refuses to eat a contract of a proven loser. If the Bills finish 7-9 again, and bring back Jauron, there's no way they can count on people renewing season tickets, and continuing to spend money on a sh-- product...

Take away Tebow's running ability and he is a very average QB. The NFL is a pocket passer's league, and we would be much better off with a Colt McCoy or Sam Bradford.
I have to agree with you. If Trent ends up not being our answer at QB(I'm hoping and praying he will be), then I'd much rather see Buffalo drafting McCoy or Bradford over Tebow. I would be surprised to see Tebow drafted in the first round, unless this year he really shows he can air it out on a consistent basis and be that pocket passer when he needs to be, in addition to being a great running threat. One thing about his running too, is that he isn't the fastest or most elusive runner when he does take off. I don't think he would have the success running the ball in the pro level that he has had in college...
