Don't think there will be a blowout on Monday night
Whites Bay replied to PeteBills4ever's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Ah, another fellow optimist. THOUGHT I might find you here, SJBF. To echo a point I'd raised a couple of days ago, let's watch for how many times Maybin creates a false start on the Pats* O-line. I'd be just as happy with THAT sort of disruption as I would with a sack. Unless it's a real painful sack, mind you. I'd like a real painful sack. Not on me, but on Brady*. And I'm referring to "sack" in the footbal sense, not in the anatomical sense...oh, never mind... -

Whites Bay replied to PeteBills4ever's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
In line with your theme of keeping it in perspective, Jim, let's get through Monday. I don't care what happens in Week 11 or 14. The Bills may suffer badly at the hands of the Pats* later in the season, but that's not the problem for this week. Let's get through September 14th, and then we'll move on to September 20th. And so on. -

Whites Bay replied to PeteBills4ever's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think there are going to be a lot of us looking at the score in the fourth quarter saying "Oh, my F-ing God, we have a shot". I will tell you this. If the Bills win this game, I'm going to be calling out a number of the TBD prunes by name. And I'm looking forward to it. -
Gosh dangit, I'm still excited for Monday

There's a great song I have on the 1979 Ry Cooder CD entitled "Bop Till You Drop": It's called - "Everything is going to work out fine". The "schits" on this board don't have the stones to respond to your post. I'm right there with you, game after game. Michael Bublé - Everything -
Keys to a Monday Night Victory
Whites Bay replied to billsfan_34's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I remember listening to Hank Williams Jr. as he belted out "Monday Night Football" for the first time. Ah, yes. "Are you ready for some football"? It sucked so badly that I take pride in the fact that I haven't listened to that fat inbred goober mouth another syllable for nearly 20 years. The "Mute" button is a great thing. I don't start listening until the ball is sailing over the 50-yard-line on the opening kickoff. The announcing in this game is going to be a minute-by-minute slobbering ball-wash of the Pats* in general, and Marcia* in particular. The ONLY way I'd pull the Mute button off is if the Bills plant Marcia*, Moss* or Welker*, or - better yet - have an "inadvertent" tackle spill into Ballisucks* knees a la Paterno a couple of years ago. Yeah. I'd turn the stereo off for that. -

On the upside, I'm going to go into the game as optimistic as I can be. Doom-and-gloom is for losers. On the "reality side", I'm already picking the music to which I plan to listen, because there's NO F-ING WAY I'm going to listen to the announcers. No WAY! Mute the Big Screen, crank up the tunes, open the Meerlust, grind my teeth. What a great Monday night lays in store for me. "Raised on Robbery" - Joni Mitchell -

Keys to a Monday Night Victory
Whites Bay replied to billsfan_34's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Oh, don't worry. That will come later. But I believe BOTH our points are that it's not impossible that the Bills win. Forgive me for putting words in your mouth if that's not the case. My greatest concern, however, is Brady*/Ballisuck's* ability to throw the darts into the soft middle. Dart-after-dart-after-dart. Ten yards. Eight yards. Twelve yards. With no pass rush, and the LBs and safeties playing soft.....urrgggh. -

1) 35 minutes of possession by this O-line? I'm not barfing all over you, but I'd be grateful with 30. 2) Jackson can get 125 yards on this defense. It's been done. With a WORSE O-line, for the chicken littles. 3) Edwards not play scared? THAT'S the big issue. Weak Pats* secondary? If Edwards "man's-up", this will be the Pats* Achilles heel. They'll get killed deep, and I think Ballisuck* knows it. 4) Win the turnover battle? Where? In fumbles or interceptions? Big difference. No f-ing way the Bills are going to win the fumble battle. That's what I'D be planning for if I was running backs and/or receiver's coach. The Bills are going to put the ball on the turf. The question is whether our SUPERIOR secondary does more than knock passes down, but actually picks a few off. Time to stop living on reputation, and start bringing a few down in your hands, boys. The linebackers and secondary must intercept more than the offense fumbles. 5) Strong special teams play? Living on reputation based on what I saw this preseason. April needs to sit his boys down in private and have a heart-to-heart. Most particularly if he wants to be the next head coach by Week 6. 6) Pressure on Brady? Let me trot out every goddamn Pats* post I've submitted since 2006. Next item. 7) Poz? 8) Maybin (and this board) needs to concentrate LESS on Maybin getting to Brady and MORE on Maybin's vaunted first step begin so goddamn fast that Kaczur false-starts like he did in the Super Bowl. I'd be f-ing THRILLED with Third-and-Five/Third-and-Seven suddenly slipping to Third-and-Ten/Third-and-Twelve. The entire play set changes. 9) Blast Jauron all you want, but his teams regularly rank near the bottom in the penalty count. His is a very cautious approach resulting in few penalities. I see no change this year. I'll be wearing the Lynch jersey with a champion bottle of Meerlust 2004 Rubicon by my side. Mead, I expect congratulations on my choice of vintage.

Whites Bay replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Guilty as charged, SJBF! I'm on wireless up here at the lake, and "3G" isn't always what my provider tells me it's going to be! I was first to pick it up, but just couldn't get the stupid comment out on time. I feel so inadequate. -

Whites Bay replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Are you certain? Palantonio says the following in his article: "If Runyan is on a roster on Saturday at 4 p.m. ET, as a vested veteran his entire 2009 salary is guaranteed. After Sunday, a more club-friendly contract can be ironed out." It doesn't appear to be Sunday. It appears to be Saturday. Unless Palantonio has his facts incorrect. -

Ralph Wilson is the envy of the NFL owners tonight
Whites Bay replied to Whites Bay's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
And I agree with you there. I always thought they'd move Walker back over to RT, Butler to RG, Hangartner at C, Wood at LG and Bell at LT. The whole thing - with one week to go - puzzles the living snot out of me. The difference between me and 99% of the posters on this board, however, is that I'm not willing to launch myself off a bridge if the Front Office doesn't do exactly as I say. Let's get it done, big guy. Go Bills. -
Okay, well, that was a damn good post, and I don't give a damn what anyone else says.

Whites Bay replied to Whites Bay's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Boy, I just don't know, Chalkie. I just don't know. I'm not a FO apologist, believe me, but the whole Langston Walker at Left Tackle just left me unsettled. I tried to get behind it, but... As for mending bridges, that's likely nonsense for a 91-year-old who has spent 50 years in the league, illegally bailed out two franchises (New England (Boston at the time), and Oakland), and has now had his mug enshrined into Canton. No, I would imagine that the bridge building starts from the other direction at this point. -

I don't disagree with you on this. I don't think that Wilson will cough up the cash for Cowher, but perhaps it IS time for a Mariucci. This line of discussion will glow like melted platinum somewhere around Week 6. -
We Don't Know The Severity Of Bell's Back Trouble
Whites Bay replied to Steely Dan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Idiotic response on my part, Steely, but I just don't know. There has simply NO information about Bell's back....well, certainly NO information worth a schit, for about 2 weeks. I guess this is the element about the opening game that concerns me the most. Not the DTs. Not the TEs. Not even the QBs. That back on our new starting LT has me in deep-six angst. -
We Don't Know The Severity Of Bell's Back Trouble
Whites Bay replied to Steely Dan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Having blown a disc, I can tell you it shows up on the MRI - very clearly. Muscle strains...not such a big deal. They'd know if it was the latter in a few minutes. This all having been said, it does concern me that Bell's been out as long as he has. My angst will do nothing, however, to bring Bell to the field any sooner or later. -

So, using this example, successful coaches don't need to videotape opposing practices, right? Am I off topic here?
