dwight in philly

i have been living in philly since 2008 and i wear a bills cap, sweatshirt, whatever, but its not so much the locals who start the conversation , its transplants.. its like a magnet obviously.. i have met so many people here from western ny because of the bills stuff.. what is also refreshing is that the people from western ny are so much more friendly outgoing.. the natives here are pretty much as one would think, miserable.. just a few are "normal!".. its just a feeling you get when you see that buffalo person..

should be interesting.. incognito.. rex.. suh.. lots of energy.. street fight..

nah.. just heard about it..too much traffic.. i hear that lots of people take the back way now

harrisburg is not far from hershey P.A(chocolate town usa).. , just a short jaunt down the highway.

"next question"

A J Hawk , brooks reed, lots to pick from

yea, no other threads ever get sidetracked, all strictly football related. i think yolo's point was spot on.. if you disagree.. so be it.. just because "everyone calls buffalo upstate ny" doesnt mean one has to agree with it

i know.. but when WNY is referred to "upstate" just seems like it is just another part of the state that is not NYC

it never did.. it is a matter of perception

probably not.. nice deflection!

ok champ.. on point.speaking for myself, i have no inferiority complex.. was just stating an opinion.. very tired of being lumped with the rest of the state in relation to the tired old axiom of "upstate ny"..

it sounds like lazy journalism.. the "upstate" term is a catch all term as we all know.

well, WNY is permissible!..

that is correct! that actually is the way it should be..the cutoff should be there in relation to the term "upstate"

i hear ya! that term is like nails on a chalkboard! when i hear it, you just wanna say.. where? upstate ny? niagara falls? albany, saratoga? the elitist attitude of all the NYCers is maddening.. they perpetuate that crap.

with cassel being here now, i could handle RGlll.. if they do in fact want him, and can get him.. play him, if he gets hurt.. cassel.. not bad..

as long as their is a bills message board , here for us participants to engage in speculation, why not mccoy for big ben? mccoy is a pennsylyvania kid.. went to pitt..

what type of "business growth"?

totally agree! this is a forum to discuss bills and football related topics.. rumors are a big part of it.. cannot understand why some get miffed if a report was not properly vetted..

i have liked this guy from the start, i think you cant wait , may have to take him earlier if they want him

a tad off topic of the OP, but if donohoe trades up for big ben, his legacy here is different.

well, if they do, you have a point.. if that is the case, then maybe they should sign michael sam to even it out some..

heck no.. i am probably in the minority here, but i like chandler, he isnt gronk, but i think he is ok, maybe it is because i am scarred by witnessing lonnie johnson.
