Lurker Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Well, @&%!. Good for Cookie, but another bad omen for Sunday. These kind of events always seem to coincide with a bad ending on the field... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koko78 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Ahead of Kyle Orton? The injustice.... Picket signs? Screw pickets, I say we go straight to looting and burning the place down. In no universe does Cookie Gilchrist's paltry achievements come close to the shining star - the beacon of light - that was Kyle Orton's 12 games as a Bill.

Kelly the Dog Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Cookie probably won't even show up for his own enshrinement. And yes, I know that he's dead. But people come back from the dead all the time. Or so I have heard. He was, however, one of the great backs and personalities in the NFL, and way ahead of his time. Long overdue.

That's No Moon Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Well, @&%!. Good for Cookie, but another bad omen for Sunday. These kind of events always seem to coincide with a bad ending on the field... Righting one of the greater wrongs in Bills history. Not only was Ralph cheap, he was spiteful. Cookie and Lou are both up now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted October 27, 2017 Author Share Posted October 27, 2017 @salmaiorana This is why I didn't vote yes on Cookie Gilchrist for #Bills' Wall of Fame: https://www.democratandchronicle.com/story/sports/2017/10/27/buffalo-bills-cookie-gilchrist-bills-wall-of-fame-induction/806068001/ Here’s why I didn’t vote for Gilchrist: He played only three seasons for the Bills. His rushing totals were 1,096, 979, and 981 in 14-game seasons, and his per-game average with Buffalo was 72.8 yards per game. But it goes way beyond the stats.

I get his points, though. Edited October 27, 2017 by Drunken Pygmy Goat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oregonbillsfan Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 (edited) it's about time! Dire Straits In the Gallery While the dealers they get together And they decide who gets the breaks And who's going to be in the gallery No lies he wouldn't compromise No junk no bits of string And all the lies we subsidize That just don't mean a thing I've got to say he passed away in obscurity And now all the vultures are coming down from the tree So he's going to be in the gallery.
