Somebody show it to Harvard. he could edit their website, solve world hunger, and a complicated algorithm while shredding their beat up secondary.

Just in Atlanta Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 (edited) BuffaloBills.com should call Eli "Manningham". Legend has it, if you say "Fitzgerald" three times in front of a mirror, Fitzpatrick magically appears to B word-slap you.

PDaDdy Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Seriously is it that hard? LOL. These guys are idiots. It shows you how little they knew about Buffalo before the season started. Instead of lazily and causally using us as the usual media whipping boys they are now scrambling to find a roster to figure out who the hell is on the team.

Instead of lazily and causally using us as the usual media whipping boys they are now scrambling to find a roster to figure out who the hell is on the team. I would prefer they got every player, coach and family members name wrong. That's just fuel for the fire if you ask me. If someone doesn't even take the time to put someones name in an article right, I would want nothing more that to light it up and make sure they get it right in the long run.... Or not and just keep fueling the fitzmagic machine. Edited October 12, 2011 by The Wiz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 I really hope someone has shown this to Fitz. I'd love for him to throw the game winning touchdown, then with his back to the Giants bench do one of those gestures where he points to the name on the back of his jersey before running off chest pumping his Oline!

strattonmd Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Well, Fred Jackson was called "Fred Taylor" last week in the Philadelphia/Delco press.... The workhorse I guess I could see the similiarities, but to me, truly an example of lazy journalism. Don't these guys get a media book, or something before they write this stuff?

#34fan Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Don't surprise me one bit. Outside of our fanbase, NOBODY cares about the guys on our roster. That's why I love what's happening with this team. Go ahead and ignore us, but do it at your own risk. I'd take a team of no-names that can play together over a team of spoiled, overrated millionaires, anyday. I really the hope fame doesnt go to the heads of this group.

Chandler#81 Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Was it Bonavena? Chuvalo?? A boxer refused to call Cassius Clay 'Ali' after he changed his name. Rather that 'knockin' the bum out', Ali toyed with him for the distance, smashin in his face and yellin' "What's my name?' -BAM! "What's my name?!" BAM! LOL! Leave YOUR mark, Fitzpatrick!

I think last weeks game was the first that one of the announcers didn't call him Fitzgerald. The world is coming to an end now. Trust me it won't affect the outcome of the game one bit.
