The Riddler Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Lets run down the cast of characters over the years to wear that great jersey. Scott Norwoord....jeez hes a local favorite, I mean he only missed the biggest FG in Bills history. Rob Johnson.....was the man ever healthy and when he was, you kind of wish he was hurt. Drew Bledsoe....at this point #11 was already cursed, Drew just made sure the tradition continued. Roscoe Parrish....probaly out 8-10 weeks from what I hear, Its not too late kid...change your jersey and have a solid career in buffalo...its not to late, the jersey got ya, but you can change it while recovering. Serioulsy, I really think certain things or people are bad luck for others, and for the Bills its that fuggin jersey #11...B U R N I T !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDBillzFan Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Roscoe Parrish....probaly out 8-10 weeks from what I hear, Its not too late kid...404681[/snapback] Forgive me for saying this, but you're starting to make Rudy look like an optimist. You heard he was out 8-10 weeks because someone on an internet message board suggests the worst case scenario is that he broke his wrist and that means, again, in the worst case scenario he COULD be out 8-10 weeks. YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE !@#$ IS WRONG WITH HIM! But this is what YOU'RE hearing? Was that the dog talking to you this time, Berk...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDBillzFan Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 we should still ban that damn jersey. 404692[/snapback] Or up your dosage. Either one. You don't let your Pats friends see you like this, do you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fezmid Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 we should still ban that damn jersey. 404692[/snapback] Why? Without Norwood, we wouldn't have even been in the Superbowl. Johnson's play was ok when he was in there. He had some great games, had some clunkers, but it's hardly "curse" levels. He was better than Todd Collins or AVP. Bledsoe led the team to a winning season last year (surprise, surprise), and we missed the playoffs by one game two out of the three years he was here. Again, how is that "cursed?" As LA so elquently stated, we have no idea what the extent of Parrish's injury is, so it's a bit premature to worry about that. So where exactly is the curse again...? If every player who wore #11 was injured all the time, you'd have a point. But right now, this is just nonsense. CW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Riddler Posted August 11, 2005 Author Share Posted August 11, 2005 why are you getting upset? I just said that #11 is bad luck for us/franchise. Its the truth simply put. Maybe i shouldnt jump to conclusions about Parrish but after reading various reports, its doesnt sound to promising about his hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fezmid Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 I just said that #11 is bad luck for us/franchise. Its the truth simply put. It's not truth. It's your opinion. There's a difference. Using your theory, every numbered player on the Bengals is cursed, and they should start wearing letters on their jersey's instead. CW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Riddler Posted August 11, 2005 Author Share Posted August 11, 2005 ok, so the #11 has brought alot of joy to this franchise. im wrong....Fezmid you are a complete joke if you think that guys who have worn that jersey over the last 10 years have done good for this franchise. Face it.....that number 11 jersey is JUST BAD LUCK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Riddler Posted August 11, 2005 Author Share Posted August 11, 2005 all im saying is, i dont think it would hurt to skip a few years of handing out the #11 to quality players. Give it to the extra kicker or 4th string QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was better than Todd Collins or AVP.404699[/snapback] Johnson was okay? I was his biggest supporter, and he was a disaster. Lay off the pipe Fez. Bledsoe led the team to a winning season last year (surprise, surprise), and we missed the playoffs by one game two out of the three years he was here. Again, how is that "cursed?" 404699[/snapback] Bledsoe led the team? Bledsoe held back a team with the #2 defense and the #1 special teams, a 1100 yard rusher, and two top receivers. I would hope they had a winning season. So where exactly is the curse again...? 404699[/snapback] The curse of #11 flew wide right, and that's where it remains.
