H2o Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I'm sure it will... "That city is so desperate!" Desperate for a good HC and a winning football team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clownments22 Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 one would hope that this billboard would elicit some response from Cowher. That's about the only thing we could hope for at this point in time. I completely understand the sentiment of wanting to do something as a fan base to make our voices heard about what we want, but I feel like the people that organized this saw how it worked and/or coincided with Jauron's firing and now they think "All we have to do is buy a billboard and say what we want and it will work everytime!" Unfortunately though it seems as if Cowher coming to our beloved bills is completely up to Cowher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfw1234 Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I don't know Cowher but I imagine the guy has an ego; therefore, this kind of thing won't smack of desperation in his eyes. I think it could help accelerate this process in that it strokes his ego - or at very least, gets him to acknowledge and comment on the situation. I can't take much more of this, this vigil is too time consuming, so I'd like some sort of closure which I hope the sign will hasten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately though it seems as if Cowher coming to our beloved bills is completely up to Cowher. I think that it's definitely up to cowher at this point, but I like it because it solidifies fan support. I'm sure this isn't going to effect anything whatsoever, and you do risk looking like a pathetic fan base buying billboards all the time, but the coach search has been so life less thus far, that fans actually felt they needed to voice their opinions.

Beerball Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Color me underwhelmed. For Jauron's ouster it was a bit clever. For this it is as pathetic as the remake of the Poseidon Adventure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACor58 Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I am just going to say it. The Billboard is the dumbest freaking idea I have ever heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acantha Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Nothing like making our new coach (not Cowher) feel welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerball Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Nothing like making our new coach (not Cowher) feel welcome. Not a problem. When the search is over just give the new coach a key to the city. Any city will do really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tasmo Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Its just like saying to anybody "Hire somebody who can win and has a team of proven winners. NOW!!" We are sick of waiting and knowing that most kids and even 20 somethings can't even remember seeing Bruce Smith play or the power of the teams of the early 90s." Oh yeah, and not for nothing, but when they hire Frazier it will send the message that its help and win or get the h*ll out before you get in!

Chicago_Mike Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 This billboard makes Bills fans look pathetic. It's like having a song written when Bledsoe came to town or those damn cereals, even though I must admit I still have an opened box of Flutie Flakes in my closet.

Glass To The Arson Posted January 11, 2010 Author Share Posted January 11, 2010 Someone said this on WGRZ - I thought I'd share it with you... its true!!!! "Obviously the economy is doing well in Buffalo. People of WNY have lost how many jobs over the past three years? Yet, people may not be able to out a roof over their heads, their homes in foreclosure, accepting food stamps from the State....but damn they will attend a football game with a bunch of drunk and roudy people" and put up billboards?

We're making a friggin coach into an idol. I hope Fraizer gets the job now. At least we won't worship him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
