  1. Will do as soon as he gets HIS #5... I'll prolly will go and visit a Bills game this year or the year after btw. Screw the international series, it's a farce, NFL Europe was soooo much better and more fun then the NFL International series; I rather go and see the real thing in their own home then visit a NFL International game again.
  2. Ok, soooooo, yes I wanted to order my #10 Hamdan jersey at www.buffalobillsproshop.com and it doesn't bloody ship outisde the US (and seal whacking country). Anyone have any solid ideas how to work around it?
  3. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skyler_Fulton http://www.kffl.com/player/10138/nfl/news http://thesundevils.cstv.com/sports/m-foot...n_skyler00.html Skyler Fulton is currently teamless, he got injured to his shoulder at the end of 2006 and didnt land a team afterwards, played with the Amsterdam Admirals in 2007 as well but wasnt fully recovered allthough he played every game he was listed every game, he now organizes Football Camps. I think he still shops around but i'm not entirely sure on it. His wiki says he played with the Amsterdam Admirals in 2005 as well, which isnt true. Ruvell Martin was the #1 receiver for Gibran Hamdan in 2005.
  4. Position meetings could be an one on one with coaches and the gm about his trade request. It would technically still discuss his position as a QB. It doesnt have to be the new gameplan and/or personal areas of improvment. KFFL doesnt say anything about it though, so I assume they've kissed and made up for the time being. http://www.kffl.com/player/9412/NFL
  5. Jake Delhomme? Jon Kitna? The thing is I've seen Kurt Warner play for the Amsterdam Admirals and I've seen Gibran Hamdan play for the Amsterdam Admirals, Hamdan looked way better then Warner. With a lesser o-line for the record. Warner had Tom Nutten on the o-line in Amsterdam.
  6. Btw did you guys see Hamdans New Years resolution? He's going to work on his chroise! Gibran is a lurker! http://www.buffalobills.com/multimedia/ind...swmext%3D%2Easx
  7. If you are going to smack then at least do it based on facts instead of talking gibberish. Seattle picked up Hamdan from the Redskins where he was cut due to politics (basicly Hamdan was the project QB from former management/coaching staff). Hamdan landed with the Seahawks with Hasselbeck in firm first QB place, Seneca Wallace in firm second. He was brought in to challenge their draft pick David Greene. Hamdan challenged him so well that they decided to hang on to him and send him off to NFL Europe and keep him on the practise squad. In Europe Hamdan broke his collarbone in a QB slide to be send back to NFL Europe in 2006 where he broke record after record and even posted a perfect game untill in the first play of the 7th game he was nuked on the ankles after the play was by a Hamburg DT, he did finish that game giving the Admirals a World Bowl berth on what turned out to be a broken ankle and a severly bruised ankle. After his recovery in 2006 Hamdan out perferormed David Greene big time and instead of David Greene challenging Wallace, it was Hamdan. Wallace got the nod over Hamdan, Seahawks office didn't want to cut a 3rd round pick in his second year plus their office is known to be allergic to injured players (allthough broken bones can hardly be called injury prone unless you have a specific decease which Hamdan hasnt) so Hamdan was let go 5 days before the final cuts. Hamdan got multiple offers but picked the 49-ers for two reasons; 1. their QB's looked like there was room for him to claim starting or 2nd QB after a year (strong rumors of it being Trent Dilfer's final season, Alex Smith being the number 1 round draft pick that was consisently under performing and fellow old Amsterdam Admirals QB Shaun Hill) and secondly he could join them straight away. The best possible outcome for him was to be signed onto the practice squad and then be able to compete for the roster the next season. This he achieved. Then Hasselbeck got injured, Wallace would be a fine replacement during Hasselbecks recovery but if he would get hurt as well Greene would be nowhere near able to start/lead the Seahawks, so Holgrem didnt hesitate and resigned Hamdan to the Seahawks in order to have someone capable of playing in case Wallace got hurt. Wallace stayed healthy and Hamdan stayed on the practise squad with the Seahawks for the remainder of the Season. Then Hamdan signed with the Dolphins where he would have the best papers of landing 2nd string or even starter at that moment (Cullpepper still hurt and Cleo Lemon the only healthy QB on the roster) where he would also get reunited with his former college coach. Dolphins then drafted John Beck and later under huge fan pressure signed Trent Green, so suddenly the Dolphins went from a QB needy team to a QB overcrowded team. At this point no-name Hamdan was basicly done for even though he was outperforming Cleo Lemon and John Beck in the limited amount of drills he got. Rumors were pointing at that point that the coaching staff wanted to trade away Cleo Lemon and keep Hamdan as second QB. These rumors went and then Hamdan finally got some action in the last pre-season game, playing with the to be cut team/ third/fourth stringers and performed poorly, couple of days later he could pack up his bags. I don't know why he performed poorly, but do know that he was extremly pissed off about himself (my personal guess is that he tried to overpush it in a desperate attempt to beat the politics; but that wouldnt be characteristic since I know him as a very smart QB, then again maybe that's why he was so pissed off with himself). He then shopped around again, didn't want the PS job at Miami, had the option to return to the Seahawks as 3rd QB, tried out at the Vikings and finally opted for the Bills who had an underperfoming 1st round QB, a 3rd round rookie and a 3rd QB who had been cut by the coaching staff before. In 3 weeks time Nall could pack his bags and Hamdan landed 3rd QB spot. I'm looking forward to see if Hamdan can show his spectacular stuff during practise with full reps and as well during the pre-season. Then you judge him for what he has shown, i'm putting my money on him being a big surprise; you obviously don't but we'll see after the pre-season is done with.
  8. For one he doesn't ride the practise squad, he's the third QB. "Bills | Hamdan signed to active roster - from www.KFFL.com Fri, 19 Oct 2007 14:23:23 -0700 The Buffalo Bills have signed practice squad QB Gibran Hamdan to their active roster. Terms of the contract were not disclosed. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bills | Hamdan signed to practice squad - from www.KFFL.com Wed, 26 Sep 2007 09:28:42 -0700 Chris Brown, of BuffaloBills.com, reports the Buffalo Bills signed free-agent QB Gibran Hamdan (Dolphins) to their practice squad. " Secondly people that have seen him play in NFL Europe know that he's been the best QB that ever played there. Damon Huard, Jon Kitna, Kurt Warner, Jake Delhomme, Brad Johnson, Shaun Hill, JT O'Sullivan are a few of the QB that played there as well that you might know and not one of them was as good as Hamdan. Also nice highlight video of him in action here: http://www.hamdanfootball.com/
