  1. i am older and without a doubt, the worst game i can remember is when daryle lamonica came back to buffalo in his first game as a raider, he lit the bills up big time! started the bills on one of the many slides into football "hell" that we have all grown accustomed to.
  2. it sure seems like the bottom line is all that matters.winning, if it happens, ok, but hiding behind "small market", is so transparent, it is insulting. i wish SOMEONE in the media would hold brandon's feet to the fire. do not let him get off the hook with comments like" i am not discussing the team's future after wilson passes".. WHY??? someone ask him why! somebody ask him if he thinks bills fans are that gullible that we settle for what is being presented to us.
  3. tell brandon that the community is waiting and deserves comments from the "braintrust" on an ownership succession plan.
  4. it just allows for another t v timeout. they are gradually sneaking more commercials in , now with the new t v contracts, expect more.
  5. i think joe buck is good. i feel he gets a bad rap, for whatever reason.
  6. i hate to agree with schopp also, but unless wilson comes through with a succession plan, then screw him.. the team.. i have had enough. the abuse of the populace of buffalo has gone on too long. i am an original, so i am not offering up these words lightly. i was there in 1960 as a kid, never been a basher of the team per se, wilson, yes.. but this is it for me and i say that because throughout, i have been afraid of them leaving, but, i honestly have had it. the last few weeks of this nonsense has jarred me , but it did take me 51 years to get to this point..
  7. i wish eddie was alive and we could take him to OBD and let him hurl his feces.
  8. yep!, that could rank up there with the mccargo v-mangold, now that i think about it! tuttle instead of mike quick.
  9. it is called consistency!
  10. yea, i know, makes you wonder what they( national draft media) think of the bills "braintrust". i remember the reaction to the fina pick, you are right, was not greeted with much positive buzz and he did turn out to be decent. in addition, despite the fact maybin is functioning with the jets, it was another horrible pick. i think the point of all this is that more often than not, the bills have gotten it wrong.easy to say that i know, but the frustration level with the organization is reaching a point of no return for me.
  11. i guess the reason it sticks out more than others is that i watch the draft and i am not an expert or draftnick by any stretch, but when they traded to get the pick, then take him, it was maddening. i never heard of him ( which means nothing i suppose) , but i think most of us know enough of the first 1-2 round players that mccargo was not among them.
  12. i do not want to beat the mccargo pick to death, but seriously, think about it, that has to rank up as one of the most bone-headed moves in the history of bills ineptness in the draft. it is not revisionist history or monday morning QB-ING of that draft, it was a horrible move.
  13. or , all the names placed in a shoebox and picked at random.
  14. yea, i hear you... the whitner pick was very puzzling, but makes sense in that it was consistent with them making bad picks. a broken clock is right twice a day , so that explains the kyle williams pick.
  15. were they from the same year?? so when the pack wheels and deals, they get raji and matthews, we get john mccargo.
  16. ok, was not sure, just wondered how the pack ended up with both.
  17. i saw raji and matthews on espn yesterday , both were available for the bills, i believe. i know the draft can be a crapshoot, but if the bills are consistent in one thing, it is overlooking talent and making bad picks.
  18. i never, ever, thought i would think that, but i am getting to that point! i sit and watch the same teams like new england, the ravens, we are know the teams,and wonder, WHY US?, 11-12 stinkin years of this horsh-t.. why??? we know why, like i said previously, just no commitment to anything other than the bottom line. the kelly years happened in spite of that mindset.
  19. i totally agree. the constant blather of 'small market" is tiresome. brandon, littman and overdorf just wanna make sure the bottom line is as big as they can get. i get the idea of profit, but trying to continually hoodwink the fans is wrong. if the profit margin is not high enough for wilson, then yea!, SELL THE TEAM!.. but we know he wont, so we , as fans, become pawns for him and the rest of the greedy ba$tards that make up the NFL..
  20. i believe they can as long as both are in the same city. that is why jeremy jacobs cant buy the bills unless he sells the bruins. i am pretty sure that is the rule about dual ownership.
  21. i actually thought the donohoe hire was a good one at the time. his downfall can be directly attributed to his coaching choices. right now, littman and co are calling the shots and if they win fine, if not , so what!, they care about the bottom line, and ONLY the bottom line.
