NoSaint Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 (edited) I mean, you try very hard to believe silly situations like he was just making a statement. He didn't mean for anyone to be offended. You have to wrap your head far around the back to believe he didn't know what he was tweeting. Frankly, even if he tweeted "screw buffalo" -- I'd be pretty whatever about it. But yea, I think he's amped up to start the season on Thursday night in prime time at home with the super bowl champions and sure to be featured as their prize addition. Yea, I think there's a chance some friends or family got in his ear and got him excited. Did he send it amped up about that or driven by some sort of anger at buffalo? I don't know, don't really care but would guess it's a little of each Edited July 18, 2017 by NoSaint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Did Gilmore not sign with the Bills because of mean tweets? He never had a chance to sign with the Bills because he was drafted by them. And then, the best team in the last 20 years paid him a lot of money, Clearly, Gilmore is the loser in this situation. Can't wait for these posts after Sammy signs with GB or Pittsburgh next year. Good stuff Jonah. As expected. @lebronstein #BillsMafia doubling down on the inferiority complex today re: Gilmore. Honestly, that's the kinda of petty, small minded BS that makes Buffalo media terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondo in seattle Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 (edited) Maybe because I don't live in Buffalo anymore, I just don't get the indignation over his tweet. Edited July 18, 2017 by hondo in seattle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Maybe because I don't live in Buffalo anymore, I just don't get the indignation over his tweet. Buffalo is starting to become a real city again. Still, Buffalo has little man's disease and are sensitive about everything. I love the Bills but going from us to NE is like going from hooking up with Rosie O'Donell to Margot Robie. I'd be bragging about it too, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apuszczalowski Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I don't even see how it is much of a shot at buffalo, it doesn't even mention buffalo, but like usual bills fans take it personally. It was an innocent tweet about being excited to play more prime time games this year, that's all. Now since he is no longer a Bill, playing on the Pats, hopefully he get a exposed as being mediocre and get a torched on prime time, but only cause he is a Pat and not a Bill, not cause he said he is happy to play more prime time games.

Doc Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 For real. He was crapped on by a ton of fans from the second he got drafted and didn't smile. According to Bills fans, he was overrated anyways. Let him get paid a ton of money by that crappy team and let's concentrate on running Sammy out of town. LOL! If that got his panties in a twist, just wait until he hears what Cheater fans call him the first time he gets roasted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Murica Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 We lost one corner that didn't enjoy his time here and went on to draft one that will be a team captain by next year... Hopefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peace Frog Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I know it's after the fact that he is gone but I have felt this way about him the whole time he was here. And that is, I'll never forget the look on his face when the Bills drafted him. Roger Goodell handed his Bills hat and someone handed him his jersey and he had this look on his face of 'Man....I don't wanna play for those guys.......'. I thought it was a bit of a strange reaction by someone who not only was drafted high in the first round but was also badly needed by the team. Apparently, my suspicions were correct as it reflected in his play. I interpreted it as more of a 'try to look good without hurting yourself and just play out your contract'. I hope he has many games on national TV so the rest of the country can see how he really is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You didn't predict anything based on his body language at the draft. Talk to anyone who knows U. South Carolina football. He may have soured during his time here, but who knows. The guy just got a giant contract to play for the overwhelming favorite to win a NFL championship in 2018. Why would he not be excited and tweeting about this stuff?

Gugny Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 He is a clown and an average corner. I think the statistics would say otherwise. He was dumped as part of a tank. He went from one of the worst franchises in NFL history to one of the best. I say let him enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 (edited) Let's be real abouthis tenure here-- since being forced to buffalo in the draft he's had 2 owners, 2 gms (3 if you count McD this offseason), 3 head coaches, 5 defensive coordinators and Darby is the only starter in our secondary he's even played with... and regardless of how we see it, he was offered far less to stay here than to go elsewhere. Dude being excited about his offseason is no big insult to me. He probably didn't have the best time in buffalo.

Thurman#1 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Doesn't insult me. He's just pointing out the facts about who gets on TV. Not surprising with out W-L records that we don't.

But yeah, it was almost certainly a salary dump for a team that was in salary cap trouble and is now significantly less so due to doing nearly everything it can to cut cap without pushing costs forward down the road.

JerseyBills Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 (edited) The next Byrd situation? Dude got so overpaid , was consistently inconsistent and was horrendous at stopping the run and is the opposite of a Leader... I said this immediately after we picked White- he will be wayyyyy more beloved here, mainly because he will be an overall better cb,imo. Yes Gilmore has the "upside" they say but he's going into year 6, he's a vet, he has failed to reach that upside. Period. We've had endless debates about Gilmore, you don't have that many consistent debates if that player is elite and doing his job! Even the debates on Sammy aren't questioning his skills, it's his health. We all know he's elite. Wit Gilmore it was all about his skills, and again, you don't have those debates year in and year out about elite players. That TV time will only bring those debates to a larger audience, on a larger scale. And the consensus will agree he is extremely overrated.

CanadianFan Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 He's butt sore Bills didn't make him a big offer. His little ego was hurt. Get over it man, like honestly.
