OCinBuffalo Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Audio Link here Lots of screaming back and forth about possibility of "extras" being at the airport instead of real fans. In regard to that: "If it wasn't on TBD, it didn't happen for the Bills...." at around 9:50 Just thought I would give them some props for mentioning this site in a positive light, especially after the 20 page thread last week. "I said D-bag, you're allowed to say it!" :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Considering how long his flight was delayed ... yeah, the "extras" thing does start to make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PNW_Bills_Fan Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Considering how long his flight was delayed ... yeah, the "extras" thing does start to make sense. After watching wivb.com the people interviewed were bills fans. There may have been extra's but there were fans there. What does it hurt if they were extra's. TO's ego is rubbed. He likes Buffalo and plays hard for us. We have nothing to lose here. This was also a real good plug for TBD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kota Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Why can't extra's be Bills fans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 The dumb part of all this is if they did post it on TBD they'd have more people than they'd know what to do with. PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Doesn't "hurt" anything, but it is kind of amusing to think that a scene in a "reality" show might have been staged. Say it ain't so! (Of course, that last part was totally sarcastic.) This was apparently on the post-show podcast, not on the air. But when the morning crew gives a shoutout like that, or one of the local TV sportscasters tells me TBD is his home page ... yeah, that's still kind of cool after all these years.

The Dean Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 It's been a long time since I have listened to Simon. But, when I lived in the area, and Howard was on the FM sports station, I thought he was spectacular. Probably the best local sports radio talk show host, I have ever heard. And that includes the big markets. Glad to hear a classy, and intelligent guy like Howard Simon thinks highly of TBD (and TSW?). Of course, I'm probably on his "ignore" list.

BillsWatch Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Howard Simon used to post on TSW between assignments when he was trying to drum up support for his independent show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Unless he used a pseudonym, as far as I know, the only time he ever posted was the "thank you" thread he started when he signed with WGR. We certainly supplied our share of topics to the Simoncast, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwight Drane Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 And to think.....he could have gone to St. Louis but stayed here out of loyalty. Now he gets to sit next to Jeremy White every day. I think that might have been his Ken O'Brien/ Dan Marino moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#89 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 what I heard was that VH1 hired or requested the Jills to be there. Twitter did the rest and the tweets that follow Owens spread the word. Thus the mass grew as his flight was delayed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
