  1. Originally South Buffalo, now an hour south of DC. Got stationed at Quantico, VA in the late 90's and stayed in the area. If anyone travels to Northern VA, I highly recommend Jimmy's Old Town Tavern in Herndon, VA. It's a great place to watch Bills games, great food (beef on weck, wings, Canadian beer, etc...) Same here! Where in VA?
  2. I agree 100% Not to bash the dead, but Ralph wasn't involved much with the team the last 15 years he owned them, which is why the product on the field was as bad as it was, so it wouldn't surprise me that most likely didn't have much (or anything) at all to do with the stadium lease negotiations.
  3. "Poloncarz said that meant the Bills anticipated the likelihood that the team would move after Wilson's death. That's part of the reason the Bills didn't seek a huge sum for stadium renovations or a new stadium, he said." The scene was the Millennium Hotel in Cheektowaga on Oct. 2, 2012. When Glaser, the key state negotiator, dropped the $400 million relocation "bomb" on Littman, the Bills CFO, "Jeff was shocked and angry," Poloncarz wrote. I remember thinking at the time that Ralph Wilson, Russ Brandon, etc... were doing everything they could to keep the Bills in Buffalo beyond Ralph's passing, but it turns out it was the NY politicians who made sure the Bills were staying.
  4. Glad to see Ryan turn his life around and things are looking up for him.
  5. From the Cowboys fans I talked to, they’re upset that Beasley wasn’t signed and that he’s a good, clutch receiver, especially on third down.
  6. Bruce Smith said Fred Smerlas told the Bills defense before Bullough’s last game “if anyone makes a tackle, I’ll kill you!”
  7. I liked Ivory's skills as a receiver as he made some good plays. I wish him the best!
  8. I agree. While a couple of big name/big contract additions would have been flashy and sparked a lot of short-term excitement, I like how Beane is upgrading the current talent level on the team as a whole without breaking the bank (plus still has room for more).
  9. Agreed. I imagine Beane’s plan is to replace the new FA’s through the draft by the time new FA’s contracts expire.
  10. Out of all the FA's the Bills have signed so far, I noticed Morse and Beasley's contracts are the longest at four years, otherwise the rest are three years or less. Also, assuming Josh Allen turns out to be the QB we all hope he can turn out to be, he will have four years left on his rookie contract (with the Bills picking up his fifth year option). By that time, Beane will have to pay Allen well over $100M on a five or six year contract. I like how Beane is being very calculated with his current crop of FA signings, knowing he has about four years where he can spend in numerous areas, while also setting the team up for these contracts to expire when Allen is ready for his big payday. I'm interested in seeing how Beane's plan will unfold over the next five years.
  11. Sweet! Great job by Beane so far!
  12. "the team that scores the most points, will win the game..." "he's firing on all seven cylinders..." “You can’t play football without football players.” "You play to win the game." It doesn't take a genius to be in broadcasting.
  13. Patriots fans hate Roger Goodell and the NFL because of Spygate and Deflategate. I wonder if they’ going to hate the Juniper police department for their version of Spygate?! Gonna be interesting to hear the BS excuses Pats fans come up for this one “everyone does it...”
  14. Should be interesting to hear all the excuses that will come from the Patriots organization and their fans on this situation.
  15. I'm sure this news is very deflating for Patriots fans. Looks like the camera has come back to take down the Patriots once again [Spygate] as Kraft was caught on camera.
  16. I think Quattro Quattro and Donkey Teeth could be available in the later rounds.
  17. They should have hired Peter LaFleur, he was awesome as the Captain of the Average Joe's Dodgeball team.
  18. I heard that yesterday and Bulldog quickly backpedaled and didn’t even give the caller a chance after the caller pointed out to him twice about how bad Schopp & Bulldog bash Allen.
  19. That, along with Mike Schopp's incoherent rambling. I'd take Sal C. any day over those.
