Augie Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 How about we put names in the bathrooms of all the picks that turned bust. We will need to add bathrooms. So, not such a bad idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 The Hall of Fame in Canton has that one huge room with the busts of all the enshrinees. Inspired by this thread, they should build a huge room like that on the grounds of New Era Field, like Green Bay did with their stadium renovation, but we will have busts of all the busts that played for the Bills. It will be enormous and a huge success. Bitchy Bills fans can walk through and just scream, "Oh I remember that dude! He sucks! He missed that block in the Lions preseason game in 95 that cost us a first down just before half!!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Passepartout Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Well he did not pay that long in the league. Just good not elite if you think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBackFergy Posted September 30, 2017 Author Share Posted September 30, 2017 Well he did not pay that long in the league. Just good not elite if you think about it.He played for 8 seasons or so but (just like James Lofton) look at the entirety of his career. Once you look at his career in totality and extrapolate his early year stats to the same measurables as a Buffalo Bill (yardage, TD's, rushing yards, winning season and character/leadership) I would suggest there's no question he qualifies for a spot on the Wall. Don't listen to these other haters...it's ok to admit it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Twelve games does not warrant a place on the wall unless you put the team on your back and won a Super Bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BringBackFergy Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 Twelve games does not warrant a place on the wall unless you put the team on your back and won a Super Bowl.Please, please, please...free your mind. Look at Orton as a Picasso. It doesn't look great on the surface...but when you step back, look at the colors, the depth, the strength of the picture, the joy it provides and the historical context, how can you question his spot as a landmark in the history of our beloved franchise. If Kelly is a Monet, Thurman is a Michael Angelo and Orton (given his spot during the doldrums of 6-10 seasons) is every bit of artistry as the others who are on that wall.

He's a lot closer to Mike Pucillo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I'd say more like Dali. I have a 3 year old grandson who is quite the finger painter. That's mostly what we've witnessed since Kelly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tedstrong Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 This point could be made all day long...Kenny Davis was basically a back up RB and he's on the Wall. Same for Frank Reich and he lost a lot of games for us...he's up there. So Orton was our starting field general, brought us a winning season in the midst of a post season famine, yet he is deprived his rightful place in Bills football lore simply because he "slid his best" to get a first down? Sometimes sacrificing your body isn't enough I guess.NEITHER Kenny Davis nor Frank Reich is a member of the Wall of Fame. PROOF POSITIVE THIS IS A JOKE THREAD!

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Orton does not belong anywhere near the wall for Buffalo. Bledsoe deserves it well before Kyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBackFergy Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 He helped bring pro football here in 1960Did Pat McGroder only play 12 games for the Bills or did he slide short of a first down? I thought those were the two criteria that mattered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
