Aloha22 Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 (edited) The bottom line on the Buffalo Bills' 2010 season was that it was more of the same. Now, it is 11 consecutive years that the Bills have missed the playoffs. However, there were parts of what they did during an otherwise forgettable 4-12 campaign that indicated they might very well be taking meaningful steps toward an escape from the familiar frustration of the past decade. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d81e5c79f/article/bills-must-rectify-past-draft-failures-to-return-to-relevance?module=HP_cp2 Edited February 21, 2011 by Just Jack don't copy the entire article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judman Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 What if he had cited references per the APA format? It seemed pretty clear to me where the info had come from. Gimme a break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MLA is the correct and accepted method of citing sources on the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Jose Bills Fan Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 To the original poster, nice article. Thanks for linking. I surmise you shortened your excerpt which was a good decision too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSBill Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 MLA is the correct and accepted method of citing sources on the board. MLA is for grade school, real reference'ers use Turabian! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasternOHBillsFan Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 MLA is the correct and accepted method of citing sources on the board. MLA and APA SUCK! Turabian/Chicago is THE best format to cite sources- who wants to read a great paper, only to have the flow of the composition ruined by authors and page numbers in parentheses? With Turabian, you get nice reference numbers in superscript that lead you directly to the source without cluttering the paper with a neverending set of (Author, 111)s!!!! My .02!

BTW, I'm having a hell of a time cutting and pasting quotes in the new format here. Doing so invariably causes changes in fonts, font sizes, and all sorts of other things I can't even explain. I've had to totally delete some of my comments from time to time (I know, not necessarily a bad thing) because of the problems I have cutting and pasting quotes from other sources. Am I doing something wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tennesseeboy Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 We are going to miss the playoffs until we decide not to miss the playoffs and draft, trade and play in free agency to get to the playoffs. It has been done by many many other teams and we just have to decide to do it. Drafting Maybins and Spillers and letting quality players leave, and failing to be aggressive in free agency and trades ain't going to get you there.
