Was that where they had the guys fly in to be picked up? I didnt pay attention to the signs at the airport in the begining

I'm sure that's a fetish to some and probably a bunch of porn for it on the internet.....

Nope, probably just wanted to get a look at the guys other teams will be signing while they wait for more dinged up reclaimation projects to sign.

Man people overreact to things around here. If I was the coach, I would say the same thing too, and I would hope that my QB goes into the season with the same mentality that he doesnt want to throw any interceptions this year. You think BB goes out and sits Tom down and tells him it's ok to throw an INT because it means he was trying to make something? And if the QB is going to wilt under a comment like that with pressure then he is not a starting QB in the NFL. I doubt Marrone will bench or cut Bortles if he throws an INT, he just doesnt want him turning the ball over cause that leads to wins for the other team. This 'jilted lover' syndrome between Bill's fans and Marrone is over the top. He was dispised by fans while he was here, and then when he gave them what they wanted and left, fans went nuts because he quit, many I assume just disappointed cause they didnt get to watch ownership do their best imitation of Vince McMahon and fire him in public.

If you want to free up the rest of the season from having to figure out who you are going to pick the next 16 weeks, sure, the Browns are worth taking....... I wouldn't touch them until a few weeks into the season and you see if they are the usual Browns again.

Actually, it's a good strategy. If Ravens win, theres slightly less of a sting to the loss because at least you move on in the pool and still have some strong choices left. Ou are going to be mad the Bill's lost anyway, at least this could help make things slightly better. Bill's win and getting knocked out of the pool has less of a sting cause you are excited the Bills pulled off an upset win to start the season.

Same

That just means that he isnt striking out 62% of the time. 38% isnt that bad, isnt that around what Judge with the Yankees was doing last year? Also might be less then Davis from the Orioles IIRC.....

I have the entire series of SOA, but haven't sat down to watch it yet

Good point about the bragging over the tunnel. I think it goes along with the other points that the guy was too overconfident in how he could get it done quicker then expected. I think the Howard issue has more to do with Chucks death then work load. He has always seemed to be together and fine before, and that was with Chick not working so it's not like he is picking up extra workload. Chucks death is weighing on him cause he has been lead to believe he pushed him over the edge. As for Jimmy, I dont think he is in denial, I just think inside he just doesnt care after what he had seen through with Chuck and how Chick felt of him and I think that helps him be a sleazy lawyer in the future. He was able to push any emotions or belief in his head that he was to blame onto Howard. Is the glove still there or did he grab it when he left the office? I thought the guy who stole the figure saw it sitting there.

I liked the move, got a Sabres Eichel tshirt cheap cause he changed the number. Now your Jersey can be considered retro, from his rookie/early season showing you were a fan before he was a superstar!

Might be a cool collection, collecting Buffalo Bill's 'cup of (preseason) coffee" Bill's QB memorabilia. A Matt Leinart Jersey, Vince Young signed cleats, Kolb Rubber mat, McCaron autographed helmet. And the prize of the bunch, a Billy Joe Holbert autographed playbook!

True, but Adam might be the better builder?

The offence could have been improved, it wasnt because Mario's contract was holding it back. It was poor offensive coaching and not drafting well on the offence.

And you dont get to prime time without having guys worth eating some cap space over.

Maybe they could get Adam Savage from Mythbusters. He could possibly build them a better starting or backup QB?

You add difference makers when you can get them. Great players dont become available every day. Waiting until your good to get great players is what keeps you stuck in mediocrity forever.

McCown has yet to play an NFL game?

It wasnt Mario's fault the offence was constantly neglected. The defence at that time was holding up its end, the offence was holding this team back.

One was the 2nd QB draft pick in his draft class and had scouting reports listing him as a starter in the NFL. The other was drafted in the 5th with scouting reports listing him as being a potential backup in the NFL. One has broken records for passing in the league, the other broke a record for passing to the ball to the other team. It's amazing what some decent stats in the preseason can do for a player......

Rare items usually are worth more, and just think of the conversation piece it will be in 10 years........

I think the reason for Mike not going with the 1st Engineer he had in was because he seemed too confident in what they were proposing and so sure it could be done earlier then expected. Mike knew it was a huge job and would be riskier and tougher then this guy believed. And this is just something I also thought could have been a reason, he came in using laser distance measurers and a laptop. Mike is oldschool and could also see the lasers as not being as accurate, and computers as not being as secure for a job this secret. The second guy took out an actual tape measure and other testing tools, and calculated things out on paper in his book. He then told him all the risks and issues he would be dealing with to do a job on that scale. He told him and Gus it can be done, but it's going to be dangerous, risky and very difficult instead of being confident that he could have the job done quicker then expected. That's a big thing with contractors and when your getting estimates, it's not always best to go with the quickest or cheapest, it's best to go with the one who demonstrates that they understand the job the best and know what they are doing. I can already picture the first guy coming in and running into a whole bunch of problems that he never anticipated from the start. I thought the same thing with Kim that she subconsciously hung up and did it because she is looking to get out of working for the bank. It's not what she wants to do and she knows she is in way over her head doing it by herself. A bigger firm is needed. She may also feel torn about getting out of it because of how she got the deal away fro. HHM and what that did to Chuck. She could have always given it back to HHM or gotten help from them if it wasnt for what Jimmy did and what happened to Chuck. The scene in the bathroom was also good showing how the 2 of them are dealing with Chucks death. Howard is a mess because he believes it was him trying to push Chuck out that caused Chuck to start the fire, and yet Jimmy is feeling great knowing what he has done to Chuck and that he can push the blame off to someone else in his own mind. I also feel that recently we have seen Jimmy subtly going back and forth between wanting to be good (Jimmy) and going back to bad (Saul). I think that the beat down by the teens was pushing him to think that maybe he was getting too old to be a con like he was before and was wanting to try and stay Jimmy. But after seeing Howard and how much of a mess he was even with help from a therapist, it pushed him to think therapy isnt going to help and he decides to keep doing what he has been doing. From the previews (and reading the guide preview for next weeks episode) I'm thinking what may push him over the edge is that he believes when his suspension is over, he is teaming back up with Kim and they will start what will become a great law firm, but Kim will end up squashing those dreams and not want to team up with him. She could decided to go back to being a public defender and try to help others and could also say something like she cant risk her career being tied to someone who has been suspended for unethical behaviour.

Bills fans ran that guy out of town to the other side of Lake Erie......

He's too old and costs too much to give away picks in a trade. Plus the Bill's arent a franchise QB away from being a contender, just wait til next and they can draft their own Roger's......

I really think that BB and the Pat's were trying to outsmart everyone and held him out to sneak him into their PS. Other teams that may have seen or scouted him in the past probably knew he could kick and swiped him before he could get into the PS in NE. Either that or the Bolls front office is actually run by Chimps and decided to pick up a Punter that they didnt get to scout play in a Preseason game......
