Kurt Warner walks on water (post two)
Albany,n.y. replied to RLflutie7's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Anyone who thinks Kurt Warner is a top 10 QB of all time loses all credibility. Tell me this: Will Warner be in the Hall of Fame? The answer is no, he won't be in the Hall of Fame. Any player who is a top 10 QB of all time is a 1st ballot Hall of Famer. Kurt Warner is not! Jim Kelly isn't even a top 10 QB of all time and he was a 1st ballot Hall of Famer. Have you ever seen Kurt Warner up close? He has a fundamental problem that he has never been able to overcome-he holds on to the ball too long and does not always sense the pass rush well-that's why he can become a turnover machine like in the 1st half of the Jets game. When he has time in the pocket, Kurt Warner can be as good as any QB. It's when there is the inevitable defender who gets through that throws Warner completely off his game. Just looking at the 1st half of last week's game and you see why Warner is more erratic than any top 10 QB. -
That's 9 home games counting playoffs. I found a good substitute (since I live a lot closer to Foxboro than Toronto): I'm going to watch the Bills beat New England in Foxboro for the 1st time since 2000. Then, since 10 games aren't enough, I'm going to see the Bills final game of the season, Super Bowl XLIII. Correction: I'm missing the 49ers game so I'll only make 10 games total.

Why are we underdogs against the cards??
Albany,n.y. replied to kbuckley9091's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
For the same reason we were underdogs at Jacksonville: We're on the road. The bettors underestimate us. -
Kiffin's $ are significantly more than Shanahan's. A good lawyer will get a judge to order seizure of something Davis owns and make Davis pay all court costs and all legal fees. Also a good judge will jail Davis for contempt if he doesn't comply with a court order. Don't go to the NFL, go to court. Go get him, Lane.

That's before he realized that the nightlife & women in Buffalo are better than in Baltimore. Then he decided to stay in Miami for Spring Break.

Davis is not senile! He knows what he's doing. Why is it that when anyone who is Davis' age says something that younger people disagree with, they declare him senile? Do you know what Davis is suffering from? -79 years of power and arrogance, thinking he can say or do anything he wants to and get away with it-that's a far cry from senility. Plenty of younger people act the same way-you can find a lot of them in Washington, DC.

This coaching staff was also well ahead of the curve on the most important position on the team-Quarterback. They saw that Trent Edwards was a special player in camp last year and recognized that he was the long term answer. Now even though I've disparaged JP many times, most just in anger over the JP is better than Trent reactions of other posters last year & some still through pre-season, this staff realized that while JP may be a decent NFL QB, good enough to start somewhere else, if you have the opportunity to replace good with great, you do it every time. Two things I see from the QB decision. 1)Trent would have been the starter this year whether JP had gotten hurt or not last year in NE. 2) The staff feels that if Trent were to go down, JP is capable enough to keep this year's team going forward. They did not go out and sign a Cleo Lemon for big backup $ when they could have done something like this & just dump JP. I've always said that the coaches (yes even Gregg Williams & Mike Mularkey) see these players every day & know a lot more about them than any of us and to question their decisions to the point of being angry at them is done so from a position of ignorance-no matter how close one follows the team. Not giving a young player more playing time usually means the guy isn't ready yet or the guy above him on the depth chart is better at this point and gives the team a better chance to win now.

I was thinking something along the same lines. Taking away the Bills games and the opponents are 4-7. Take away the dreadful Rams & the opponents are 4-4. The Jags & Seahawaks will make the playoffs. However, we do have a creampuff schedule since the only other sure playoff team we'll play is San Diego, with Denver, who should be 1-3 instead of 3-1, and the Jets also possibilities. Put a fork in NE, they're not going anywhere with Matt Cassell.

Were you the ones who put the Psycho Ward 86 banner up at the Steelers/Ravens game that was shown on Monday Night Football?

Ralph tried this with Wade & it didn't work. When they get to court, Davis will say he was fired for insubordination. When Davis is asked his definition of insubordination and he says that Kiffen wouldn't sign a letter of resignation after he demanded he do so, the judge will not only rule in Kiffin's favor, but will make Davis pay all court costs and attorney fees as well.

I'd like it to be the edition right after the Super Bowl, with him holding the Lombardi Trophy.

Nice article on Coach Jauron
Albany,n.y. replied to In-A-Gadda-Levitre's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yes, and he doesn't look much different than when he played with the Bills. He has Trent up to #2 for MVP. -
I didn't know Kelly Bundy grew up, dyed her hair, moved to Alaska & became Governor. When you put one fact into Kelly Bundy's brain another fell out, like the time they put so many prep facts into her brain, when they asked her about Al's football career at Polk High, the memory had been pushed out of her brain.

We'll just have to wait for the Super Bowl to play a top team.

Is Media Favoring Obama?

Not even close. I went game by game before the season started & came up with the Eagles as a totally unbiased pick. My NFC team is the Giants because I grew up on Long Island & live in Giants country.

Report: Linehan is out if Rams lose to Bills

I wonder if ex-Bill Jim Haslett will get the coaching gig. -
So I was working in the Boston area this week...
Albany,n.y. replied to Just Jack's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
That's interesting, because this week I received an e-mail from the NFL that links up Ticketmaster's NFL ticket exchange & the Patriots had tickets sold by their fans on the list. It appears they can't scalp them, but they are selling them at face plus the ticketmaster vig. It now looks like almost every team is in on this, even the Patriots. http://www.nfl.com/tickets?campaign=email_Tickets0927 -
The Super Bowl teams would get their @ss kicked one or more times a year. Fans in 2008 should keep this in mind the first time the 2008 Bills play a really bad game. It's a 16 game season & that stuff will happen once in a while. Here's a list of the worst defeats in the Super Bowl years: 1990: L30-7 @ Mia-this was a definitive game. Marv read them the riot act after several players complained about being held out in the 4th quarter. They won 8 straight games and only lost 1 game the rest of the way before tanking the season ender after home field had been clinched. 1991: L 33-6 @ KC 1992: There were some ugly games in this, the only Super Bowl year that they didn't win the division & have home field. They had consecutive losses in back to back weeks twice. 1st in October, a 37-10 loss against the Dolphins at home and a 20-3 loss against the Raiders on the road. Then in late November, they lost an OT game in Indy followed by a 24-17 loss to a bad Jets team fired up by the Dennis Byrd injury the prior week. The final game of the season was the 27-3 loss at Houston where the Bills lost both Jim Kelly and home field throughout the playoffs. 1993: The 12-4 Bills got whipped in 3 games. In September, they lost at home 22-13 to the Dolphins in a game Miami jumped out to a big lead early. Then they really got kicked around in a couple of November road games-23-0 at Pittsburgh & 23-7 at KC. In fact the Bills lost 3 of 4 games from 11/15-12/5. So next time the Bills have a bad game & WGR starts whining, call up & remind them that even the greatest Bills teams got mauled once in a while.

I have to drink a lot of lemonade (to help battle kidney stones), and Newman's is the best on the market. One reason is that Newman's contains 15% lemon juice. That's the highest % of real juice on the market (tied with several other brands). Newman's also has a 25% lower sugar/calorie option as one of the few varieties available. Some lemonades are 2-3% juice with lots of added sugar-that's not doing anyone who has to drink lemonade much good.
