metzelaars_lives Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 You are correct. Only retards like CS Lewis, Thomas Aquainas and William F. Buckley believe in God That's right because I said that no smart person in the history of the world believes in God. Incidentally, do all three of your boys believe in organized religion? Huge distinction. In other words, they think their Judeo-Christian God is the one and only God, but everyone else's God is made up and silly? Cause if they all believe that I'd be surprised.

CS Lewis, although believed (convinced by his Lord of the Rings buddy)in the Roman Catholic Church, never got around to making the formal change from protestantism before his death. Buckley and TA were devout Roman Catholics There was a period of four years of my life when the Bills lost 4 Superbowls in a row that I doubted the existance of God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 For many years Bills fans have not only wanted a great quarterback, but they have wanted to LIKE their quarterback. They wanted him to be smart, down to earth, and classy, a family man and preferably Irish-Catholic. Ryan Fitzpatrick, if he becomes “great” will fit this mold. I think it is natural to want your sports heroes to have “character”. Cam Newton is not smart, not down to earth, not classy, not a family man, and certainly not Irish-Catholic. Maybe this is why so many of you fans are against drafting him. Character is nice, but it does not necessarily win football games. Draft Newton if he is available because he is the best chance the Bills have to save the franchise yeah those are the reasons :wallbash: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Hindsight Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 The OP's opening thread is disgusting.

VADC Bills Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Newton Classy??? His father shopped him around for cash His father was a part time storefront preacher who now suddenly has gotten the money to build a "mega-church" Auburn a classy program??? Like the booster who took the players to his friend's Casino where they were set up with private slot machines that won on EVERY pull of the lever Wait until after the bowl games and Auburn gets the NCAA "death sentence". Newton will be off making money in the NFL when that happens Newton's father is a greddy Elmer Gentryesque charlatan and the apple does not fall far from the tree That does not mean the Bills should not draft Newton because he can make them winners By the way, if Bills fans were not so hung up on "image", we could have signed Michael Vick and we would be headed to the playoffs this year Pete Carroll, is that you.

Draft Newton if he is available because he is the best chance the Bills have to save the franchise It took an awful long time to make your point, but I gather that you think the Bills MUST draft Cam Newton, otherwise the team will wallow in mediocrity until the end of time. I'm curious. Why? Please offer some statistical reason, or sound logic. Saying that Bills fans don't want Cam Newton because he's not "Irish Catholic" is not a compelling reason. And it's insulting. Also, "elephant in the room" is an English idiom for an obvious truth that is being ignored or goes unaddressed. It is based on the idea that an elephant in a room would be impossible to overlook; thus, people in the room who pretend the elephant is not there have made a choice to concern themselves with tangential or small and irrelevant issues rather than deal with the looming big one. A "white elephant" is an idiom for a valuable possession which its owner cannot dispose of and whose cost (particularly upkeep) is out of proportion to the possession's usefulness or worth.A burdensome possession; creating more trouble than it is worth. Since Cam Newton is not yet a "possession" of the Bills, he can't be the "big white elephant in the room." Just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't give yyou a bunch of stats, but how about we talk about Buffalo Bills history and how the fans ran James Harris out out town-saying he "threw too hard for the receivers to catch". He did just fine when he went to the Rams When I was a kid, we used to play this little gane called "James Harris". We would be having a casual game of catch with a football, when all of a sudden one of us would yell "HARRIS" and whip the ball as fast as we could. If the guy didn;t catch the ball, it was HIS fault, not the fault of the guy throwing it, but you people ran Harris out of town with that feeble excuse Help me with my history...Who did the Bills start after Harris left? Was it that POS Ferguson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave mcbride Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 You are correct. Only retards like CS Lewis, Thomas Aquainas and William F. Buckley believe in God Last I checked, atheism wasn't really a viable option in Thomas Aquinas's time. In fact, I suspect that the number of atheists in Europe in the 13th century hovered around zero. I'm Irish and (nominally only) Catholic, and I've never heard one person discuss this as an attribute. Pretty much everyone I've spoken to who likes him focuses on the fact that he's genuinely smart, doesn't take sacks, and reads defenses very well.
