I don't know how. I've never done it before but I'd like to learn. Can you please help me out?

Until you get help figuring it out (LOL), you can always put your big boy pants on and realize others may have an opinion that differs from your own.

Thanks Lurker! Made a slight correction for accuracy.

This is a candidate for his worst article ever. It's bad on numerous levels--stirring up controversy for no apparent reason, politicizing a non-issue on specious feminist grounds (this is no knock on feminism, btw), and making false comparisons to put the subject in a worse light: http://bills.buffalonews.com/2015/07/31/mccoy-not-getting-it-right-now/ .

Just dreadful.

It was really poorly conceived and totally unnecessary IMO.

There's nothing like being first on the story either. A good journalist writes his thoughts when it happens not 2 weeks later. This was a troll column by Sully and really contributed nothing new. Edited by Kirby Jackson

I thought the same thing when I read it this morning, Dave. Jerry has found a new black Buffalo athlete to slowly chip away at, wonderful. I guess this at least means no more Dareus articles. The Buffalo sports media is a goddamn joke.

 

 

At least he chose a player in decline who isn't likely to meet expectations and who actually is a douche and not just a guy who made a couple mistakes.

 

McCoy is better than CJ and Fred at this point but there is no doubt he has a screw loose and that loses it's cuteness when the player is no longer exceptional.

 

I expect he will roll in around 1,000 yards rushing and about league average ypc and a lot of that will be skewed by occasional runs that are bounced outside and blocking not followed.

 

That won't be worth the hassle or the contract so I sure as hell hope he is better than he was in Philly last year.

 

Since he was a better fit for what they do in Philly I will definitely be surprised if he has this "career year" everyone is predicting.

 

Greg Roman work your magic please.

I have kept to my promise and not opened one Bucky or Sully article since the Bucky " losers" column. When I cancelled my subscription that day, service rep sounded like they hear " I am canceling cause I cannot take those two"'a ton. And yes, I know I can get for free but I always paid anyway. It's funny, you tell by the headline on TBD who wrote the article , these guys are just so predictable.

 

While back someone posted a rant from Sully about the News and how they screwed reporters etc. I wonder if it is next to impossible to fire him and Gleason cause of some arcane newspaper guild rules or something. I got a feeling they would to, but can't.

Wow."..actually is a douche". Uhmmm I don't think he is at all. I find him interesting. Douche nozzles are guys that speak in cliches and are arseholes off the field.

 

BTW, I am no expert but I thought the whole reason they were willing to trade him was he was a BAD fit for Chips one cut and go offense. Unless the chit about Kelly is true and he traded him for other reasons.

Ahhhhhh, nothing like a little name calling to get your point across that you think he's a subpar RB.

I haven't read this article and - except by accident once in a while - stopped reading him a long time ago.

 

He has a talent for annoying me. He can find a dark cloud on the sunniest day. He's an anit-PR specialist - able to find the negative spin on anything. When we make the playoffs this year, he'll criticize the decisions that failed to deliver a SB win. Reading his articles brings me no pleasure and no new information. So I just don't do it.

My take on McCoy is that he came into the NFL with something to prove and he was a good runner between the tackles initially but as he became Shady the celebrity.....and got a bunch of mileage on him.....he doesn't have that anymore.

 

Chip Kellys' offense along with some really good run blockers created a lot of space and big gains for McCoy in the past couple years and when you consider that then his declining numbers are a concern.

 

Due to the evolution of the game a lot of the guys who once would have been running backs are now playing defense so teams don't have the quality and depth they once had at the RB position so it's understandable that they want a legit proven RB......but he is more hype than game at this point IMO.

 

I suppose it would be nice to see him come into camp like a man with something to prove coming off a down year and being traded rather than someone taking a victory lap.

 

That is going to irk detractors who aren't sold on him and Sully is a hater for hate sake sometimes. That's his job to stir emotions.

 

That isn't the general fanbase take on Shady but neither was it when they acquired Drew Bledsoe or Terrell Owens.

 

I personally think it was a bad trade and I obviously hope he proves me wrong and is that same tough, hungry player he was 5-6 years ago but I don't expect that based on recent performance.

Yeah a professional veteran print media journalist is a troll because you don't agree with his work. Outstanding.
