The stripes really are having a tough time keeping the flags in their pocket today

WTF did Lynch do there?

The ref should be able to distinguish if Corto is hitting a white jersey or a teal one. I watched the replay 4 times and Corto definitely made contact with his teammate not the returner.

Cadillac had a pre-existing injury though, since he blew his knee out last season, not this year during camp. PUP is for guys who show up to camp and are still unable to participate in full contact football for whatever reason. See: Cadillac Williams (knee rehab) Chris Brown (back injury from last season) Joe Jurevicius (knee rehab + additional surgery) Justin Harrell (back) Dunta Robinson (knee) David Tyree (knee) Deion Branch (ACL rehab) Most of these guys all ended up on the IR at the end of last season with the exception of Tyree, Brown, and I think Harrell, but all were injured last season and are still injured now.

AXED by the Seahawks today. Oof.

He should certainly get paid what he is worth, but in order to do that, he should actually SHOW UP TO WORK first. This is a job for these athletes. If you were running your own business and you had a spectacular employee who stopped showing up for work because "they believed their performance is worth more than they are making now" what would you do? Would you appease them and say "Okay little boy, you do a great job and thanks for not showing up when you were scheduled to be here. Have 250% of what you used to make" Or would you wait until they actually came to work and continued doing what they're supposed to to reward them for their exemplary performance?

I just got a Whitner throwback for the same reason you did. I recommend it.

Vincent definitely was the one who broke Losman's leg. IIRC, Everett tore his ACL in the first or second day of the first minicamp/OTAs after the draft, not caused by anyone else.

I don't know how long the construction will be going on on Abbott Road/Southwestern Blvd, but all I can say is that if it's not in much much MUCH better shape than it is right now by football season.....there's going to be some loooooooooooooooong waits going on on some Sunday nights. Southwestern is an absolute mess all the way down to Seven Corners.

My thoughts exactly. I am owed StubHub tickets for the Seattle and Cleveland games.

*** This situation is becoming overblown and hearing about it on a daily basis in the news, in the papers, on the message boards I visit makes me want to slap the living hell out of someone.

Okay so let's say Lynch's car has 4 Bills players in it. Hell, let's even assume Lynch is the driver. They plunk the pedestrian, and the DRIVER decides to speed off. What are the 3 passengers supposed to do? Grab the wheel? Turn the car off? Jump out while it's moving? You can say all the words you want but the driver is in control and the driver makes the decisions. And since the driver, at this point, has been pegged as Lynch, it is HIS problem to deal with, not anyone else in the car. You're right, what if they had killed her? That would have been terrible. But she didn't die, and she's not even seriously hurt. Someone needs to go and hold a gun to their head on the 190 again so that they can just let this story GO. It's overplayed already. That's what our local news does. They find a story and they latch onto it and fill some of their 30 minutes with it every. single. day. until the issue is so played out, so tired, that no one cares anymore.

Is the victim in the hit and run in the hospital? Is she in a wheelchair? Permanently on life support? NO? Okay. Next line of questioning. Is Marshawn Lynch a repeat offender? Has he been on the wrong side of the law multiple times since his arrival here in Buffalo? NO? Okay. Worst case scenario is a suspension of like, 2-4 games. Absolute worst. Erie County will probably slap him on the wrist too, make him do some extra community service or serve like, 30 days in jail during the offseason. Local news is only latching onto this because there's nothing else really big going on right now. It's just like they latched onto, and broadcast for WEEKS these stories: Jayvonna Kincannon, Altemio Sanchez, Bucky Phillips, Anthony Capozzi, Lynn DeJac, Dennis Delano..........

The damages: HOME OPENER: Group of 5 friends in Section 309, Row 32/33: $249 through BBTICKS Brother and his friend in Section 143, Row 3: $166 through StubHub MONDAY NIGHT: Myself and 3 friends, Section 120, Row 7: $300 through StubHub. Honestly, I just paid $75 for a $50 seat but I don't care at all. Because come August or September, the seats remaining for the Browns game will all be in excess of $100, especially since its a game where fans from both teams could conceivably be there. I'm happy. Everyone got what they wanted.

My friend just placed another call to BBTICKS for the hell of it. Browns game is now sold out and they're 95% sure the Seattle game will be before tickets are available to the general public

Finally in. Snagged 5 for the remainder of my group, Rows 32/33 in section 309 for the Seahawks game. I will be making purchases on StubHub PRONTO for the 2 down low from my brother the Seahawks fan and my group of 4 for the Browns game.

It's a terrible system. I've been on hold on the phone for 25 minutes. The recording is beginning to drive me crazy.....

still trying, still busy

I'll get em cheaper on StubHub still. My brother wants to be within 20 rows of the field and I think I found 2 in the scoreboard endzone, row 12, for 65 a piece. I found a decent set in the same area for the Browns game for 73. Nice try but you won't be getting that much from me. Maybe some other last minute desperado.

I'm starting to resign myself to the fact that I'll be buying from Stubhub. 6 for the Seahawks game (2 for my brother the Seahawks fan and 4 for the rest of our group) and 4 for the Cleveland game Yeah, I'm ready to get bent over.

Thats what I'm seeing right now also. Luckily for me, my STH friend is at a doctor's appt so by the time he gets home I might actually be able to log into his account!

annoying bump for help...

Thanks a lot. Does it start at any certain time on Thursday (6/5)? My brother is looking for good tickets to the opener, since he's a Seahawks fan. Normally I wouldn't help him out but they only come here once every 8 years, so this is an exception. I'm looking for some to MNF. These 2 games will be in high demand I'm sure, so I have to act ASAP if I want to get what I'm looking for through my friend.

Any other confirmation?

Thanks in advance. I have a friend who is a STH who is going to try and get me some tickets to games when the sale is, but I forgot when it is (day and time) and what, if any limitations there are (either # of seats or games available) Thanks again
