T-Mobile - Can we do better on the nickname?
CodeMonkey replied to MClem06's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
She'll sue. Just ask Apple and Spotify. -
Turned pro at age 15, six years ago, and has a world ranking so low she still needs to qualify. Last years ranking was 775 and this year so far 260. Her best ranking was in 2012 and that was 147. I'm sure that both she and her parents are very happy that she not only made it through qualifying, but actually won a main draw match in not only a major, but a grand slam event. But "real up and comer in American Women's tennis" is a bigger reach than Matt Simms being a real up and comer in the NFL

This has left such a bad taste in my mouth I hope he does well against the Bills as well.

QB Tyrod Taylor to start Week 1
CodeMonkey replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Coordinated for sure. Rex didn't want his truck keyed and tires slashed. -
Bouncy house etc. little kids stuff up by the stadium. Tends to be the same stuff that have at training camp at SJF. Lots of cool stuff for the kids in the field house. $1 (at least they were) hot dogs in the stadium, but be prepared to wait in line (smarter to eat before going in). Major alcoholics tend to stay home or behave so should be no worries there. Fireworks after the game so stay in the stadium. The Bills do kids day VERY VERY well, so enjoy! Oh almost forgot, the nice people at the pinto tailgate (and everyone else really) in the hammer lot go out of their way to make all kids feel welcome!

EJ Will Start Pittsburgh Game
CodeMonkey replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Honestly at this point the only shocking opening day starter for me would be Simms. Though based on what I have seen, Manuel would be a mild surprise. -
My Favorite not so little Bills Fan is leaving....
CodeMonkey replied to The BLUES Brothers's topic in Off the Wall Archives
After he first arrives until he gets comfortable with the living situation and school processes, keep his mouth shut and his eyes and ears open and he should learn a lot. I think some of that is the difference between sons and daughters as well. -

Wawrow Article Indicates EJ Sees Wall's Writing
CodeMonkey replied to The Big Cat's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
That makes as much sense as anything as a reason to play 3 QBs in the dress rehearsal game. Gotta love ole Rex, he definitely marches to the beat of his own drummer. -

A reasonable take in my opinion. -
EJ Will Start Pittsburgh Game
CodeMonkey replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Rex said yesterday that all 3 would play. Given his personality he probably put Manuel out there first just to !@#$ with the media -
For me, I will hold off anything until I see the dress rehearsal game Saturday.Should have a much better idea of what this team really is after that. But remember also, the +3 is the gambling line, which exists to get a portion of the betting public to bet the way that balances out the betting. And in this case they must feel the betting public (as a whole, not just in Buffalo NY) aren't Billievers and need a little push to bet on the Bills.

Why EJ Manuel should start in Week 1
CodeMonkey replied to Simon's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Manuel is 3 inches taller which gives him the advantage in the pocket in any situation. And I would also agree that Manuel has the stronger arm. His problem this season is, and always has been so far, accuracy. Doesn't matter how fast it gets there if it is 6 feet over the receivers head or in the turf. But, Roman and Ryan will make the call and they have far more information and experience than you and I combined. Based on camp and the preseason games, I'd be shocked if Manuel started game one. But the Bills have surprised me before -
Why EJ Manuel should start in Week 1
CodeMonkey replied to Simon's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
There are some, perhaps many, that think Taylor has a better skillset and toolbox than Manuel. And can make the same case as you have to start him. It's a matter of opinion at this point. The only ones that matter are Ryans and Romans. -
It's gotta be Roman who makes the QB call, right?
CodeMonkey replied to eball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So you have an OC that is not a placeholder, and as an HC you are going to forcefeed the OC against his will not only a player in his offense, but the single most important player? Does that make sense at all? Personally I think they should go to the big tree and hash it out over a beer. But push comes to shove and they cannot agree, you have to go with the QB that the OC feels works best in his system. It is HIS system after all, not Ryans. -

CodeMonkey replied to eball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I could not possibly disagree more. First, Ryan is a defensive coach. Second, It is Romans system. If Rex has a big enough head to overrule his OC (which he might) it is a big mistake in my opinion. -
'Nother Nationally Televised Game!
CodeMonkey replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It's actually the kids day game in Buffalo. -
To me, watching a half of Taylor then a half of Manuel, Manuel looked downright immobile compared to Taylor. Also, people seem to love both Rex and Roman, how nice it is to have good coaches and so on. Then turn around and say things like Manuel needs to play with and against the 1's. Trust the coaches people. If Manuel is playing with and against the backups and worse, it is for a reason.

Rex Ryan says they will probably keep 3 QBs on the roster
CodeMonkey replied to Fingon's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Also a good point and ties into the guaranteed money. It costs them nothing but a roster spot to find out. -

CodeMonkey replied to Fingon's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think they hold on to Manuel because all his money is guaranteed anyway, TT as a running QB has a higher than normal chance of getting hurt, and maybe, just maybe, a team will get hit with injuries and offer something in trade for him. -
Is preseason best for kids first game?
CodeMonkey replied to judman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Pitt game is the "kids day" game and it has always been a great game to bring kids to. The Bills do nice things for the kids that day, fireworks after the game, and the drunks tend to respect that it is kids day and either stay home or keep themselves under control. They are expensive for a preseason game because it is the Steelers and the Steeler fans will overpay. I think 2 years ago kids day was the steelers as well and tickets were the most I ever paid for that reason. Get tickets off of stubhub or wherever, not from the Bills directly. Enjoy! -

Not according to one sports guy on a local Rochester TV news anyway. He rates the QB's after every practice. Yesterdays results were Cassel first, Taylor a close second, and Manuel a distant third.
