  1. How’s that for some wild speculation? Someone can make a case that J. Reed was a RB at one point playing football, and after all he did have one carry during a game late last season. That should be ample reason for some people to speculate!

  3. I shouldn’t have been so personal with the POS moniker on him- but I was always so frustrated with his play…..and the high hopes we had for him with the team.
  4. “He was not intrinsically motivated”- Marv Levy
  5. Thanks....too bad some of Dockery's play attitude didn't rub off on him. He might have been still around.
  6. It would be another dose of reality for him, just like the Raiders game and the rest of that year, after his statement about being the best back in the NFL.
  7. The last I heard was that that POS Mike Williams screwed Jacksonville too. After making the team he had another “injury” and the Jags eventually put his sorry a$$ on IR. Did the POS ever play a game for them? Did they come to an injury settlement or do they still own his rights? And is there any team in the NFL or world for that matter that would be foolish enough to sign him, unless it was for Chief Donut Tester… No self respecting man would have done what he did. What a POS. What is his status with the NFL?
  8. No, I don't know that for sure. just my way of saying they did a good job of responding and getting who they had targeted.
  9. Bills Front Office staff have week-end off after the three-FA signings, for fresh start on Monday!
  10. I’m glad I’m not the only one who noticed it.
  11. I was never overly impressed with Kelsey’s play and this past season he seemed to be more active. Every time I hear his name I get this picture of #90 coming up to the point of action, after the play is over, and standing over a pile of players adjusting his shoulder pads. Every time I see him on the field he’s standing up adjusting something!
  12. Cheeseburgers that’s what he’s in charge of…getting cheeseburgers for the players as a reward. We did that too, with our kids when they were 4 and 5 year olds.
  13. He's a great coach. Too bad we had to face him when we did and never had him on our sideline!
  14. Simms is an idiot! He sounds like he has the IQ of a thirteen year old. I can't stand listening to his nonsense.
  15. He seemed disinterested to me also. On one play in particular he could have stiff-armed his idol Ray “Killer” Louis to gain a first down; he instead chose to run out-of-bounds one yard short of the first-down marker and let his buddy Ray easily ride him out-of-bounds. Could it be that with Ray “Killer” Louis being an icon and deity of the “U” that in no way would an inferior subordinate lower-classman ever do anything to embarrass such a hero that Ray Louis is with former “U” players by throwing a stiff-arm to the face? I noticed that after the game Ray went looking for WM, passing-by several other players trying to talk to him, but just giving them a nod, until he found WM to give him a hug. Of course I don’t know what they are thinking, but their actions show that many players on opposing teams are very close, and I’m not suggesting anything else, or that there is anything wrong with that: just observations.
  16. I’ve had it from its inception which was around ten years ago or more….I’m not exactly sure which year it was…and back then I want to say it was about $119 per year give or take a few bucks. If you were a sustained subscriber they would offer a discount if you paid early and offered a four payment installment billing; which I believe they still do today at a higher price then ten years ago of course. The $200 is a ballpark figure, I don’t know exactly how much we pay now per year because my wife is the family accountant and she wrights the checks, but I believe that with the early-bird special as a repeat customer it still is under $200….I’d have to look at the bill to be exact…but that seems to be about right. Hope this helps…I’ve got to get back to the games…TT just scored a FG…TT 3 NE 0 Good luck and go bills this afternoon.
  17. For those of you who might be considering DIRECT-TV and whose personal situations allow the choice. Here is my experience with it. When my job transferred me to Florida from WNY our fear was that we would not see another Bills game down here. About a year after we moved here DIRECT-TV and NFL Sunday-Ticket became available. Since its inception we have seen more Bills games, here in Florida, than we ever saw for the years we lived in WNY. Of course NFL blackout rules still apply for all local games not sold out. DIRECT-TV and NFL SUNDAY TICKET are worth every penny. DIRECT-TV is the same price as comparable cable programming, and the cost of the NFL Sunday Ticket for the season is less than we would spend going to one NFL game. (It’s less than $200 per season) Without sounding like a salesman for them, they do offer a lot of benefits with the Sunday Ticket. Obviously they show each game on separate channels, but in addition they also have two channels that show a mix of eight games on each, and you can control the audio for whichever game you want to listen to, while watching the others and switch between any of them. We do this while the Networks are deluging viewers with their endless mind-numbing commercials. They also have a channel they call the Red Zone which shows teams that are….”in the red zone.” They also have other features that show stats and such for those who follow that. The way I personally use it is to set it on the Bills channel and one of the two split-screen eight-game channels, with the Bills game and the mix of teams I want to follow. When the Bills game goes into the mind-numbing Networks commercials I use the “jump” button on the remote to go to the eight-game screen, and select the audio of the game of interest, or if they are also in a commercial break, I can go to whatever other one that is of interest, all the time watching the Bills channel in the eight screen block for the commercials to end. I then flip back to the Bills channel. I don’t miss one-second of the Bills, and can keep-up with all the action around the league, and not be held hostage by the #!@#$%& Networks and cable programmers! We have two receivers (about $5 more per month) and I have half the house on one, and the other half on the other one. My wife an I are die-hard Bills fans, but sometime we differ slightly as to which other teams we want to watch during the endless commercials, so she may chose a different split-screen channel or a totally different late game. ($5-bucks a month is a small price to pay to keep a football crazed wife happy!) Oh yeah, and during the week they have the NFL shorts, that they show on two channels, that breakdown each game to about a half-hour each. It can be somewhat choppy at times, but it allows you to see every play and significant replays. We like to watch the Bills upcoming weeks’ opponent to see what they are doing, and who and how they are playing. It’s more or less like watching a coach’s tape. Direct-TV also carries the NFL channel. It’s 24/7/365 days of football….training camps, draft…player/coach interviews…I think it’s pretty good stuff….football year ‘round. Here in Florida afternoon thunder storms, some severe, are daily summertime occurrences. With the first generation dish/receivers we often had signal loss during heavy rain, not so anymore with the new equipment. I can only recall two time this summer we lost our signal as a severe storm was passing overhead. Each time it was no longer than 3-4 minutes at the very most. I’ve had cable outages that have lasted a lot longer. It’s good stuff, and as I said I think it’s worth every penny!
