  1. Dude, Willis McGahee was absolutely sick in 2004 on the Bills. He basically didn't even play until week 6 and ended up with 1128 yards and 13 TD's. Then the following year he ran for another 1247. He was significantly better than Antowain Smith- who, mind you, was drafted even higher than McGahee. What short term memories we have around here.
  2. No you're wrong. Let's look at the best teams in the league: Indy? He's decidedly better than Curtis Painter. New England? Couldn't even tell you who their backup is. Saints? A 50 year-old Mark Brunell? Packers? That Flynn kid from LSU who's never take a snap in the NFL? Tavares Jackson blows. Chris Chandler was a sick backup QB, Frank Reich, Cody Carlson, those were good ones. Fitzpatrick stepped in and played decent last year on an essentially non-functional offense. He is an above average NFL backup QB by anyone's standards. Again, clearly not a starter though.
  3. 2 1/2 doesn't hold a candle.
  4. Talked to Chris Brown for a half hour straight at the Bills bar in Denver before Bills-Broncos in '08. Dude was talking to me like he was Bob Costas or something.
  5. I can't get into the whole Mel Brooks comedy thing. Perhaps it's a generational thing. I grew up in the 80's and it goes straight over my head. Blues Brothers is classic, but I think of it more of a movie I just like than a movie that actually makes me laugh out loud.
  6. "You really mean that? You're not just saying that because we exchanged bodily fluids..."
  7. Nordberg. And yes he is impeccable in that role. So is Dragline from Cool Hand Luke. "Frank, when Nordberg said 'I love you' he was talking about a boat." "I realize that. Now." Top 4 Comedies Ever (as according to Metzelaars): 1. Spinal Tap 2. Revenge of the Nerds 3. Billy Madison 4. Naked Gun
  8. Not sure how long you guys have been watching football but Fitzpatrick is a CLASSIC backup NFL quarterback. A pretty decent one too. I don't want him to win the job because I know he's not a starting QB in the NFL but to say he's a 3rd stringer on most rosters is preposterous.
  9. The second half Maybin had vs. the Chiefs last year already bumped him ahead of Mike Williams as an all-time Bills player. My prediction: Maybin either busts out this year and has double digit sacks or is a complete bust altogether. No in between.
  10. Let me guess, you watched a lot of X-Files and think there was a second gunman.
  11. If Jacksonville moves to LA, I'm not sure that there exists another more viable football market than Buffalo in North America. Unless San Antonio or OKC builds a world class venue with ridiculous luxury seats, I'm not certain that the next owner couldn't make the most money in Buffalo. They're already what- 24th or 25th in terms of profit margin each year? And that's in a POS stadium. Buffalo is a POS market in terms of the economy and what not, but it's actually a great football market. The same way Winnipeg is a better hockey market than Phoenix. Would a new owner be certain enough that moving a team to San Antonio or OKC or even the Skydome would be more profitable than keeping them in Buffalo ten years from now? Will people show up in San Antonio when their team has sucked for ten straight years? Our fans do and the next owner will factor that in. The Bills aint goin nowhere.
  12. 5. Getting cuffed at Bills-Chargers in San Diego in 2005 going into the game, thrown into the drunk tank, taken down to detox and then getting arrested in detox, before spending the next 12 hours in San Diego County Jail. All the while wearing a Sabres jersey and Canisius College basketball shorts. In Hollywood two nights before we saw Avril Lavigne, Vince Vaughn, Chris Rock, Spike Lee and Jenny McCarthy, so that was pretty cool. 4. Bills 38, Seahawks 9, 2004 and the partying we did in Vancouver two nights before the game. 3. Jim Kelly's first game vs. the Jets, 1986 2. There are so many- regular season comeback vs. the Oilers (1987?), clincher vs. the Jets in '88, playoff win vs. the Dolphins ('90 season), Jim Kelly's 6 TD's- including 4 to Beebe vs. the Steelers, 3 weeks in a row comebacks vs. the Broncos, Raiders and Jets (people forget about the Jets one), etc., etc... 1. Greatest comeback in NFL history. Period end of story. I remember when it was 35-3, me and my friend were saying that we were kind of psyched that we may be witnessing NFL history- the biggest blowout in NFL playoff history. God bless my Dad for getting season tickets from '86 - '95. That was pretty f'n cool of him.
  13. I think our unit will be a veiny, throbbing, pulsating beast this season.
  14. That definitely makes our line more dong- I mean strong.
  15. That's why this poll is stupid. Of all three spots, the most likely is Roscoe being the #3 and he's not even one of the options.
  16. Why would you recommend someone drink a horrible beer just because it's some sort of a joke/novelty in the region? Drink Flying Bison or Saranac or Southtowns IPA!
  17. So you're saying Chippewa has changed? I didn't say there wasn't plenty to do in Buffalo, but unless you fit that description, I would avoid Chippewa altogether.
  18. I love how people say there's so much to do and then recommend Chippewa. Yeah there's so much to do if you are an actual cast member of the Jersey Shore or wear a black leather jacket with an Italian horn chain, you have a chinstrap beard, go tanning regularly, are from Buffalo and still live in the suburbs, will look for chicks until 4 AM and then when you strike out, you will punch someone in the face out of spite, you do a lot of coke, etc. Chippewa is something that Buffalo should be utterly ashamed of. Granted I haven't been out on Chippewa since probably 2002 but I'm certain it hasn't changed.
  19. Where in Denver do you live? How weak are Broncos fans?
  20. If the Bills are good this year, who will be the reason?
  21. My Bills knowledge dates to the very end of the Ferguson era and I would be inclined to say that in terms of sheer arm strength, Losman may very well be no. 1. edit: not knowledge, but that's how far back I've actually watched the Bills. I know full well who Jack Kemp is, but I can't intelligently discuss his arm strength.
  22. Dude are you serious about your avatar? Come on man.
  23. Did anybody see me at the Rockies game last night in the second row down the first base line? Brad Hawpe made a catch literally right in front of me. I was wearing a plaid shirt as per usual. Soccer sucks. Diving is ghea. The shootout to determine the 2006 Cup was Dave Matthews-level ghea. How can you end such a grueling tournament that way? I'm bored, just trying to stir the pot. Go Bills!
  24. I really wish the Bills would bottom out this year, but they won't. They will figure out a way to win six games. Guaranteed. For one, their defense is too good to be the worst team in the league.
