  1. No it wouldn't. We don't have anywhere near the infrastructure needed to pull off an event of that magnitude. As for the "move pilot field" idea, I don't get that, either. Moving it five blocks isn't going to appreciably change anything. I understand the desire to have the Bills back in the city, but realistically, it will only provide a minimal economic benefit eight days per year, and that, at the expense of the benefit that it is providing in OP. And at the expense of part of the tailgating atmosphere that people seem to love. If it moves anywhere, it should be to the Falls.
  2. I do hope that you Easley people (not pejorative, just trying to categorize) are not the same people who want a WR in the first round.
  3. Chandler / Williams (oh--Aaron Williams. I forgot, there are at least three), assuming we're really talking about a "break out" year.
  4. And a really cheesy poster: http://sportsposterwarehouse.wordpress.com/2009/05/21/top-10-buffalo-sports-posters/ (Scroll down to No. 1--no slideshow.)
  5. As soon as I saw it was BR, I knew it would be a slideshow. Sorry, OP; I'm sure your article is interesting, but I'm not headed to that site.
  6. It would be awesome if the Bills had three capable backs on the roster. They don't (unless you count McIntyre, which is possible). Jackson and Spiller are capable. A Tashard Choice is no choice at all.
  7. There is nothing Christian about Pat Robertson or his view on the trade.
  8. No, dammit. This New York thing is too good.
  9. More detail on what may be a serious snag: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/03/21/jets-trade-for-tebow-hits-a-snag-could-be-voided-rams-may-get-him/
  10. What happens to Kelsay? I had assumed he would switch back to end in the 4-3. Is he going to remain at OLB or is he no longer a starter?
  11. That's what the fifth and sixth rounds are for. They'll draft someone.
  12. SabreSpace and TBD getting press mentions in the same week? Good for you, Scott.
  13. No to sweep the division, but I do think they'll sweep the games in Orchard Park.
  14. $96M contract and he signs it with a 49 cent pen.
  15. With Mario 1 in the fold, it's time to concentrate on Mario 2. Git r dun!
  16. I, too, find the TuneIn app to be closer to "real time," and I also think it's a more reliable app (crashes less often) than the dedicated WGR app. Plus, it's just as free, and it gives you a world's worth of radio stations.
  17. When, exactly, did a no. 2 WR become a huge priority? About 5 minutes after we learned some dude from NO was visiting? Relax. There are other, much more important, needs. Robert Meacham was not going to turn the team into anything other than what it will become on its own. (What THAT is, I can't tell you.)
  18. Oh, FFS, we have a No. 1. It's not going to be that tough to pick up a No. 2. Let's not get all gloomy just because freaking Meacham, who isn't that terrific anyway, chose elsewhere. And I'll be pretty pissed if the Bills waste a relatively high first-round pick on a receiver.
  19. I'm not quite there. But if the plan was to wait until the coin flip and anthem and then walk off of the field (rink?) on "national" TV, then the owner was really left with no practical choice but to preemptively fire them and find new players for the game.
  20. I have read elsewhere that the team planned to strike right after the national anthem. The game was televised by NFLN. If this is true, I can't blame the owner. If not, well, it is a little dickish to fly someone to Florida, fire him, and tell him to get back home on his own dime.
  21. BR lost me with its endless slideshows. I never did think that it was run out of someone's basement, etc.; I just thought there was too little content for the clicks. The unreliable reporting is new to me. And seriously, a site that publishes that the Redskins might sign Stevie Johnson, about ten days after Johnson signed here, isn't going to be immune from criticism. Sorry.
  22. Just make a Bleacher Report thread and insist that Bleacher Report stuff gets posted there. Then you can ignore the thread.
  23. I like the fact that there's a Q in there--teams should draft one every year--but no, I really do not want this team, with so many needs, taking a WR in the first round. IMO, absent a freaky talent, a team never should take a WR so early.
  24. Great idea. Helmets, too, for that matter.
  25. And he was great in Remember the Titans.
