  1. I think you pissed the ______________'ing point.
  2. Can't wait to see the pics! I know you scheduled this thinking the draft would have been in late April. I can only imagine your reaction when you heard the date.
  3. He should have been canned, period. He's not a company man whose house was bugged while he told racist jokes to his friend, he's a team OWNER of a corporate and media driven league that's comprised of mostly blacks. You're treating the private conversation as if it's a black and white issue (no pun intended). It's not. It's an extremely nuanced, extraordinary set of circumstances. That said, between this dickhead and the bozo thief out in Nevada, I long for the day when these super rich racist white guys finally run their course. Theirs is a dying breed, thank god. THAT said, as a society we need to stop thinking in terms of progress toward racism eradication. That ain't gonna happen, and we should be grappling with more constructive, realistic ways of dealing with the issue of race.
  4. Next year they should bump the draft to August. This **** is WAY out of control/
  5. It was a pretty sweet picture, if I do say so.
  6. Let me also add to this discussion the sense I got upon Pettine's departure that the fans suddenly touting the top-10 defense Pettine helped architect were the same ones deriding the team's inability to stop the run and/or get off the field on third and long. I think that calling last year's defense "top-10" cherry picks a meaningless stat (yards) while ignoring much more important ones, namely points allowed, where we ranked 20th and yards per carry, where we ranked 23rd. But I also think that losing Pettine means we won't get as many sacks or interceptions (two fun stats for us fans, and two stats wherein the 2013 squad put up franchise-numbers), but that the difference will be made up in improvements at the aforementioned stats (points/ypc), which (and here comes the optimist in me) will have a direct correlation to actual WINS.
  7. Just so long as he bliztes Robey on obvious passing downs, I'm happy.
  8. I'm not kidding when I say we should take to the streets and march both bars to meet in the center of Lincoln, traffic be-damned. I'll call the media. OH MAN! South from Delilah's, North from the Station, up Lincoln, meet SMACK dab in the middle at Jonquil Park on Wrightwood for a pre-game rally/board the busses!! Marv's in the neighborhood, we'll get him a mega phone.
  9. Had the headline read "Bills' puppies-dying-in-fires research raises BLANK billion dollars," do we think Tim Graham would have been as Johnny on the Spot? I have my doubts.
  10. They make fun of you because you're not brand loyal when you buy jeans?
  11. there are plenty of places on the interwebs to go and get your eye candy. bb.com is where i go when i'm thinking about football.
  12. She's moved on!? THANK GOD
  13. Also: a PR nightmare would be a client that produces no news. So...
  14. Tim Graham is a BLANK hole.
  15. #like #hashtag #bringbackfergieisadelightletsstartthehashtaghashtagTBDmeme
  16. A fan on a message board asked if he was there. Suddenly the local voice has leveraged the organization to part ways with a former third overall pick.
  17. Mother !@#$ing Little Finger.
  18. Well, considering they would have 26 "first 2 picks" in his 13 years... Again, his numbers are confusing at best.
  19. 13 drafts? Thought he was only there 10 years? 1999-2009. Here's how that plays out: http://goo.gl/6SiiYb From 1999 until 2009. I count 4 DB's taken in the first two rounds, and only one of them (Palamalu) taken in the first. The others: Ricardo Colclough (2004) Scott Shields (1999) Bryant McFadden (2005) And 5 WR's taken in the first two rounds, all of them taken in the first except Atwan Randal-El. The others: Troy Edwards (1999) Santonio Holmes (2006) Plaxico Burress (2000) Limas Sweed (2008) Mr. Quinn's is a very confusing/very misleading factoid, IMO.
  20. I've been a fan of this team too long to know that while I'll 100% agree that we have reason to be optimistic on offense, if that comes to fruition, we're all but guaranteed the defense will regress significantly.
