papazoid Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 what a "homer".....tripping over himself saying nice things about the bills.... Well, I'm finally seeing what Nix had in mind when he handed C.J. Spiller's name to the commissioner in April 2010. Two weeks into his third pro season, Spiller is showing the full array of talents that infatuated Buffalo's personnel men when he was running rings around college defenders at Clemson. On Sunday at Ralph Wilson Stadium, with his team desperate for a victory and missing two of its top offensive weapons, Spiller played the role of NFL star to the hilt. He had 170 total yards - 139 in the first half alone - and two touchdowns as the Bills rolled over the Chiefs, 35-17. Spiller is the first NFL player to average 10 yards a rush through the first two weeks of the season (minimum 25 carries) since Jim Brown in 1963. OK, the superstar talk is a little premature. But that's pretty lofty company. http://www.buffalonews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20120916/SPORTS/120919220/1004 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keukasmallies Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 So, when Sully critiques the Bills, he's a jerk; and when he praises them, he's a homer? Sounds like a reasoned response to his writings to me.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malazan Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 So, when Sully critiques the Bills, he's a jerk; and when he praises them, he's a homer? Sounds like a reasoned response to his writings to me.... when someone wraps a word in quotation marks, I think the intent is to be sarcastic or imply something other than the direct meaning.

Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Well, I'm finally seeing what Nix had in mind when he handed C.J. Spiller's name to the commissioner in April 2010.

He had 170 total yards - 139 in the first half alone - and two touchdowns as the Bills rolled over the Chiefs, 35-17. A nice grace note was Spiller tipping the hat to FJ in the postgame interview, saying FJ challenged him to "carry the team on his back" and when the man talks, you gotta listen or something to that effect.

BillsFan-4-Ever Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 (edited) this is a surprise? He's no different than the boys at the D&C and the rest of the NFL mediots. They roll week to week with trash talk or praise. Who trashed Mario last week and said the PUTZ were great? .whats his name Marvin Harrison... I heard him renounce his PUTZ were great statement yesterday Edited September 17, 2012 by BillsFan-4-Ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. WEO Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 This guy can't win. No matter what he writes, he gets picked apart by the peanut gallery. You guys would prefer Chris Brown to write that column, no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.Biscuit97 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Do people really take Sullivan serious at this point? He is what he is. A sports columnist who has zero accountability. That said, I do give him credit for sort of admitting he may have been wrong about the Spiller pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
