I'd extend him now.

You better head down to Miami-You're booked at the Saban & Mularkey residences.

Better yet-Saban resigns & Mularkey becomes Head Coach of the Dolphins.

Donahoe re-signed Wire, Marv inherited the contract.

People were all over Marv for re-signing Reed & Denney when they hit free agency, and for his draft. Now they know MARV KNOWS FOOTBALL

Can you imagine if Shelton & Bennie had manned the left side of our OL last year? Losman, Holcomb & Matthews would still be in the hospital today.

Too late, I already cremated them.

Unlike his predecessor who was declared a future head coach the day Gregg named him DC, this guy could be a hot assistant in no time. I hope we get a Super Bowl out of him before he leaves.

Cowboys | Romo on alert for Week 2 Sun, 17 Sep 2006 08:48:30 -0700 ESPN's Chris Mortensen reports Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo has been told to be ready to play in the Week 2 game. QB Drew Bledsoe (back) has been receiving treatment on his back, but he denies having a back problem.

I try to get the pregame on the computer & I get Cleveland's broadcast every time I try to get the Bills announcers. I've already tried Miami, Cleveland & Cincy broadcasts hoping they switched them, but no luck. Last year, I got NE instead of the Bills when we were playing the Patriots. What am I paying them for?

I received this e-mail today from Time Warner. I didn't do anything before to let them know how PO'd I am there's no NFL network. Them sending me e-mail knowing I love football but not giving me the NFL Network put me over the edge. Here is their e-mail & my reply (I deleted my e-mail address & replaced it with my TSW name) Yes, I enjoy football-I want the NFL Network NOW!!!!!!! ----- Original Message ----- From: Time Warner Cable To: Albany,n.y.

Keep up the good work. I hope you were well compensated for your work last January. If it weren't for you Mike Mularkey might still be our head coach. I also imagine you've financed your kids college education with all those trips you made to the Donahoe house the last 5 years.

Just for the record, the Bills have given up or used the following year's 1st round picks on a QB: 1998 (trade for RJ) 2002 (trade for Bledsoe) 2004 (traded up for JP) Therefore, the Bills used #1s 2 years apart on a QB and it can even be stated that they used back to back #1s since the #1 for Bledsoe was 2003's and JP was drafted in the 1st round in 2004 (with some 2004 picks & 2005's #1). So just because you spent a #1 a couple of years ago on a QB, it doesn't mean you don't do it again a short time later. The short timeframe between 1st round QB picks, in history, include when the Baltimore Colts spent back to back picks on QBs-in 1982 (Art Schlichter) and 1983 (John Elway), with neither one lasting long with the team due to a gambling addiction and elway's refusal to play in Baltimore. In 1989 Dallas spent 2 1st round picks on QBs, making both their (own) 1989 & 1990 picks QBs. Troy Aikman was a 1st rounder in 1989 & Steve Walsh was a supplemental 1st round pick-giving Dallas 2 rookie 1st round QBs in 1989-So much for Jimmy Johnson's draft genius tag (although he later hoodwinked NO into giving up a #1 for Walsh. In 1965 the Jets had both Joe Namath & Heisman winner John Huarte as rookie QBs. Now all this was done before the salary cap, but the bottom line is you better find a quality QB by whatever means necessary, otherwise your franchise is not going to be a Super Bowl contender.

For everyone's sake, I hope JP works out, if he does then everything is fine. However, if he doesn't (which better not happen), then we've done worse than "delay our rebuilding to the 2008 season at best". I'm happy with the Whitner pick, but if JP fails-which I hope & think will not happen-not drafting Cutler will have set us back even further. As a result, Marv has shown that he has faith in JP. Marv is in charge & it's his job to make the tough decision-he made it and he better be right. I found it interesting that Marv made it quite clear that Leinart was never considered an option and the team obviously had Cutler rated a lot higher.

No matter how good Whitner becomes, the pick rests with how good JP becomes. If JP lives up to expectations, Whitner was the right pick, period. If JP doesn't & Cutler does, then Whitner was the wrong pick-it's that simple (now that Marv is on record saying if the choice was between Leinart & Cutler, it would have been Cutler*). QB is a much more valuable position to fill than safety, but if you have a good to great starting QB, then drafting a safety is acceptable. *-Source: Marv on WHAM Tuesday night.

I don't understand why some of us get offended by ratings & predictions of pea-brained journalists who haven't seen 1% of the Bills games we've seen. I just think that the person writing the article is a moron who doesn't have the professionalism to do his job correctly. If a guy is going to be paid to write about the NFL, unless he's viewing tapes of every game before making his ratings, I believe he is as bad as a theif because his is not properly doing his job, while getting paid for an inferior product. If his employer is OK with that, then the best thing to do is blame the employer because in the end, the employer is responsible for the rubbish. So, the conclusion is don't do anything that would aid Docsports,com financially. If this is the guy's hobby & he just is posting like us, with no compensation, then it really doesn't matter what he thinks. Just another doofus with a computer (like the rest of us)

Thank's Pope. Now my people are not #1 on the Muslim hit parade.

Yes, the Yankees confirmed they will be wearing them.

So, if the Jets sign him, will we have to put up with the 3rd Sign Michael Haynes thread of the season when they release him? Maybe it would be better if the Bills were the next team to sign & cut him just to stop these threads. The only thing I fear is that if we sign & cut him we'll get the "Why did we cut Haynes" or "Bring back Michael Haynes" threads

Ralph has it spread all over a king sized bed & is rolling around in it.

No they couldn't. PUP is reserved for guys who come to camp injured. Players who practiced & played in preseason before injury are not eligible for PUP.

Thanks for the clarification. I'm sure the Bills knew all the ramifications. I think their main goal in this is sending Vincent on his way when he's healthy enough to join another team because they want to give him an opportunity to get more playing time than he'd get here. They realize that by the time he comes back, Vincent would be a reserve and Vincent probably indicated to them he preferred to be let go. A lot of media types are enjoting their age jokes on Marv & Ralph. Whoever is making the personnel decisions, Marv, Modrak etc, they did a great job in this draft and the organization is well aware of the NFL rules-a lot more aware than the writers who criticize them.

Sounds like another 1st round bust named Mike.

There was a sign that was hanging on one of the walls before the game, but security made them take it down: "Bo knows the Raiders suck"
