I dont think Dawkins sucks actually I think he is a good player Rest of the OL making him look bad in my opinion....and he might be a better LG the LT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbb Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 17 minutes ago, OJ Tom said: They probably agreed to "turn up the heat" in a bid for ratings. Trivia discussions can only hold listeners attention so long. Maybe Mike can join 5 more fantasy leagues so we can hear all about them. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted September 28, 2018 Author Share Posted September 28, 2018 Shopp is such an !@#$. I hope people keep piling on him until he quits. Every single thing he talks about is either point spread related or subjective analytical garbage. He is absolutely clueless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KW95 - JA17 Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 What are the yard totals for TT against the Jets dating back last year? I'd predict around 100 yards passing for 2 or 3 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zow2 Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Yeah I heard Sal and Schoop getting into it this afternoon. Something about team Culture which Sal thinks is important during good and bad times...while Mike thinks culture means squat. Sounded like Schoop hates being challenged on his points, or disagreed with. Probably why he and the bulldog fella get along. That guy never says anything original. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 5 hours ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: Do you think they're gonna be extending Dawkins? I've been trying to figure out the run blocking and watching a lot of OL. I'm underimpressed, just when it's 1:1 and the challenge is "beat your guy, don't let him beat you" I think they love Dawkins. He's one of THEIR guys. But I think when it comes down to it there will be a difference of opinion between the Bills and his agent about how much was given to him and how much was earned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually don't mind the show as long as they aren't talking trivia, or fantasy football, or stats... which adds up to 75% of the show.

But it’s a general sports show; for better or worse fantasy football is a valid topic on a show like theirs given its popularity. I don’t know what you mean by “stats,” but if you’re referring to conversations on advanced stats and analytics Schoop is always going to talk about those. White does the same thing in the morning. They are both huge believers in advanced stats in football and hockey. Personally, I am not convinced they translate as well to those sports as they do to baseball, but you’re gonna have to get used to them talking about it. A lot.

And that is the correct way to voice displeasure with that - just don’t listen. some people I talk to actually think Schoop’s pretentiousness is endearing. Never been able to figure out why. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like some of what he does, but stats/fantasy/trivia...they all kinda go together, kind of a scientific approach (yes, even triva is tied in to that in a way). I'm not interested that. I don't really care that he is abrasive. I don't dislike him so much as I'm not interested in the things he apparently finds fascinating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I didn’t even address the trivia thing earlier, that is lame for the most part. I still can’t believe Schoop is in like 15-20 fantasy leagues (so he says.) That is such overkill it’s farcical.

Buffalo Barbarian Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 9 hours ago, Royale with Cheese said: They just kinda went at it again. More Sal going after Schoop. I really don't believe Sal likes him. because Schopp likes to be contrarian, he thinks he knows how football should be done and that is with the few superstars model versus the everyone is very good model that the Bills are using. 8 hours ago, KW95 said: What are the yard totals for TT against the Jets dating back last year?

You can tell Bulldog doesn't like being confrontational and just wants to enjoy his day and job and knows he can't actually fight him without getting fired so he goes along with it. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Schopp is off all week and it's just Bulldog, I almost can't listen. Bulldog just has nothing to say and his stammering is really hard to listen to. He is skilled at talking for 5 or 10 minutes straight, however, while saying absolutely nothing. If the reverse is the case, I can listen just fine, despite Schopp's flaws. At the end of the day he offers the most intelligent voice on that station. That he may be abrasive or harsh to idiot callers really doesn't bother me at all. I don't notice it nearly as much as others here apparently do. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
