Albany,n.y.

This article & Brad reading it on WGR got me so riled up last night I first e-mailed Brad and then called him. Summing up my thoughts: Vincent wasn't on the injury report on opening day, therefore he was fit to play before the game started, so why does Florio think he should have been cut before the game, when the main reason he was in effect cut occurred during the game-reaggravating an injury that wasn't even reportable for the game before it started. Marv would have had to be Nostradamus to know that Vincent would get hurt. Ko Simpson had never played in a regular season game, and even if they were high on him, they didn't know if he was ready to start over Vincent. As for Peter's "hoping it's not true" WTF do you hope is not true? That Marv didn't have Nostradamus like foresight that Vincent would get injured in game 1? Florio is a jerk for writing an article that is flawed by an illogical premise that Marv Levy is supposed to see the future before it happens and base his cuts on his visions. Before Florio writes again, I'd advise him to either take or retake Logic 101 because his whole premise is illogical. And for Peter, I'd say wake up and don't be a Florio lemming.

The Saints already cut him this week. So Jreed82 is advocating a guy who got cut by one team, picked up by another & got cut after 1 week in the season. No Thanks!

The best part is that all the other games look like blowouts, so by the 4th quarter, 90% of the nation may be switched to Bills/Miami, unless we're up by 30.

V chip alert for language and the gayest character seen on TSW.

I still haven't received it yet.

Ellison was our 7th pick, picked in the 6th round. Which could make him the Tom Brady of linebackers.

The best sign I ever saw was when I was watching the AFL Championship game on TV KC @ Buffalo to go to Super Bowl I. It said "Bills in Super Bowl, Chiefs in soup bowl" and had a big bowl of soup drawn. I forget if they had Chief players floating in there, but I remember they drew steam coming from the soup bowl. Years later, when I heard that the 1st Super Bowl wasn't called Super Bowl, I remembered the sign & went to the Buffalo library, found the Courier Express on microfilm and found multiple references to the fact the Chiefs and Packers were going to play in the "Super Bowl".

I've seen enough Jets games in the Herman Edwards era to know that he is nothing but a rah rah guy who can't coach for s##t. If Herman Edwards ever is employed by the Bills, I'm jumping out a window.

What are the media jerks who said we had a bad draft saying now?

Sarcasm in title noted.

He must be waived when healthy, WGR interviewed Hub Arkish & he says if he's claimed he goes to the team, otherwise he's free to sign with anyone, the Bills included.

He's gone. They're not going to keep him around because he wants to play & has been ultra careful today to say all the right things, to make sure the Bills release him without any bridges burned-heck in a year or 2 he might return as a coach or coach in training-but for now he wants to play and the Bills will not stand in his way. They've already decided they like what they've seen in Ko Simpson, otherwise they would have cut a guy like Aaron Merz & put him on the PS instead of Stith and then re-signed Leonhard if they felt they needed a healthy body at S. I doubt the league is hovering over the waiver wire hoping to claim Aaron Merz.

The Bills de-facto cut Troy Vincent today. When he is 6 weeks removed from his original injury date or he is healthy, whichever happens later, he will be released (injury settlement) and be eligible to sign with anyone he wants to. Edit: Hub Arkish said he will be exposed to waivers & will have to clear before anyone can sign him. If he's claimed he goes to that team-Hub Arkish said it-I've always thought that a veteran with as many years as Vincent cannot be claimed & automatically becomes an unrestricted free agent.

He also has an eye to the future. I don't know if he wants to be a coach, GM, league or union executive, etc, but he's certainly not looking to offend anyone & this interview alone has to be worth a lot of points in any future NFL career. His "interview" has to be ten times better than Gregg brought to the table when he wowed TD. He says he'll be back, and says he's on a form of injured reserve that he can come back from-but with another team, not the Bills in 4-6 weeks

You must be in WNY listening to the broadcast. The stream is about 2 minutes behind and he still isn't on.

Does Willis even know that Mularkey is the OC of the Dolphins? I seriously doubt he cares. Now the theory he'll be pumped playing in front of the family & friends makes a lot more sense.

So all Osama has to do is live in a crypt at some cemetary & it's hands off? I can see it now, troops surround Osama's crypt, Soldier:"Hey, Bin Laden, you coming out & leaving the cemetary" Osama "Not today, infidel swine" Soldier "My superiors told me to tell you to have a nice day" Osama "Die, infidel swine, Allah is great"

1) I'm on TSW 2) There's a thread 3) The thread is stupid 4) The thread is about the Dolphins 5) I hate the Miami Dolphins

Remember the guy a lot of us (including me) wanted the Bills to replace Lindell with? Jets | Nugent's job safe for now Tue, 12 Sep 2006 14:23:00 -0700 Dave Hutchinson, of the Star-Ledger, reports New York Jets PK Mike Nugent's job is likely safe for now, even though Nugent missed an extra point and two field goals Week 1.

He's been money ever since Schneck replaced Dorenbos. Who knew back then that all Lindell needed to create magic with his leg was to get rid of the magician?

I had totally forgotten that one, looks like younger Joe had a similar day, ending up not knowing what stadium he was in that day, too. NFC: New York Giants 49, San Francisco 49ers 3 Quarter 1 2 3 4 Tot 49ers 3 0 0 0 3 Giants 7 21 21 0 49 at Giants Stadium, East Rutherford, New Jersey Game time: 12:30 p.m. EST TV announcers (CBS): Pat Summerall and John Madden Game Attendance: 75,691 Giants quarterback Phil Simms completed only 9 of 19 passes for 134 yards, but threw 4 touchdown passes and no interceptions while the New York defense allowed only 29 rushing yards and a field goal. On the 49ers' first drive of the game, wide receiver Jerry Rice caught a pass from quarterback Joe Montana and appeared to be on his way for a 50-yard touchdown, but he inexplicably fumbled the ball without being touched and the Giants recovered. New York then drove 80 yards to score on Simms' 24-yard touchdown to tight end Mark Bavaro. Simms later threw three more touchdowns: a 15-yarder to wide receiver Bobby Johnson, a 28-yarder to wide receiver Phil McConkey, and a 29-yarder to tight end Zeke Mowatt. Running back Joe Morris rushed for 159 yards and scored two rushing touchdowns: a 45-yarder and a 2-yard one. Linebacker Lawrence Taylor also scored on a 34-yard interception return for a touchdown. During that same play, Montana was knocked out of the game with a concussion after being hit by defensive lineman Jim Burt. Scoring NYG - Bavaro 24 pass from Simms (Allegre kick) SF - FG Wersching 26 NYG - Morris 45 run (Allegre kick) NYG - Johnson 15 pass from Simms (Allegre kick) NYG - Taylor 34 interception return (Allegre kick) NYG - McConkey 28 pass from Simms (Allegre kick) NYG - Mowatt 29 pass from Simms (Allegre kick) NYG - Morris 2 run (Allegre kick)

He was a little past his prime & didn't know where he was by the time our D was through with him. I remember chanting before the game Joe Cool? Joe Cold? JOE OLD!!!

Unless he comes into the Ralph & kicks our @ss, with a lot of deep balls in the wind.

Were you ever an elementary school teacher on LI? I once got a zero on a take home spelling test for using alot instead of a lot because we were supposed to review the answers with a dictionary. I then had to get a parental signature, forged my mother's signature & got into a world of trouble. All because I spelled a lot incorrectly. I hate those two words together, a lot!

Talking about the draft. Matthews asked him about not drafting Leinart. Marv stated that they were not drafting a QB because it would have been too much chaos creating a QB controversy without giving JP a chance to succeed. Then he said IF THE BILLS HAD DRAFTED A QB, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN CUTLER, NOT LEINART.
