Rex throws out first pitch at Bisons opener

At least Rex is not boring!!! -
NFL hires first female official
Iraq Vet replied to Canadian Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
As long as she is competent, she will be fine and no one will care about her gender.... not like the waitress in the ref uniform last night that screwed up my order. I hope they don't make her wear the same uniform as that waitress... she was falling out of hers. It would be tough to run in that outfit. To the politically correct nazis and fake feminist that are about to go crazy..... get a sense of humor (and a life). I am obviously joking. -
It is EJ we are talking about here.. he is not going to say anything news worthy....
-
EJ needs another season before we move on..... or else it is a waste of a QB draft pick.

More jerks on the Bills equals more victories?
Iraq Vet replied to Iraq Vet's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Weird how people personally attack each other in on this site... isn't this supposed to be fun? Every idiot has opinions..... that's what makes this fun. My posts definitely does not solve world hunger or world peace. Some of my post are less than clever. I usually attempt at being funny or thought provoking..... I fail more than succeed. -
The Offensive Line: Better Than Advertised?
Iraq Vet replied to Rob's House's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This O-line is extremely young. Wood and Incongito are the old guys and they are not that old. Not every rookie is a boom or bust. Some take a year or so to get going. -
Tim Tebow Working Out With Eagles
Iraq Vet replied to The Real Buffalo Joe's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Chip Kelly is screwing with the rest of the league. If he can get the Redskins to bite and think Tim still has worth, then Washington signs Tebow. Who wins in that case? Tebow RG3 and Cousins what a mess!!!! It gets better with the Giants, if they buy into it. BTW this is a huge nothing burger..... no one is signing Tebow. -
More jerks on the Bills equals more victories?
Iraq Vet replied to Iraq Vet's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Is there any above average guys left out on the FA market that is a mean and tough leader. Someone that will kick ass if people get too far out of line? Works well in hockey, you can be a jerk... but go to far and Zdeno Chára will slam you into a wall. I think Kyle William might be that guy. -
Urbik takes 1.5 million dollar pay cut to stay with Bills
Iraq Vet replied to Big Turk's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Was it "take a pay cut or be released"? If so, it says something about his worth on the open market. Things are generally worth what people will pay. You house is worth what others will pay for it, not the investment you put into it. A common mistake in the industry I work in. Yes, a rare crazy person might pay 100% more for your home. But that is pure luck. Sometimes when you buy something you get a seal of a deal... But overall, things are priced what the market holds them as. Urbik is a solid back up guard at about 1.5 million per year. Sounds about right... -

Tebow... great guy and super nice... not an NFL player. Lynch huge jerk.... all world talent. -

Iraq Vet replied to Iraq Vet's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Wow... I thought this would be just a fun thread..... Jerks with talent vs Good guys with talent vs good guys with little talent vs jerks with no talent. Not every post has to solve world hunger or cure cancer. We are waiting for spring and the draft..... -
SJ was not fast... now pushing 29. They will get one good year out of him.
-
Last off-season, I was advocating signing talented jerks because we had a locker room of nice that were sub 500.... lovable team, yes.... good football team, NO! I don't want felons playing for the Bills, but talented jerks with a chip on their shoulder is fine with me. Then we got Spikes who was way better then expected, then Darius and Hughes went drag racing and then had pro bowl years. Mike Williams was a jerk too, but flamed out. Turns out dirt bag, ego Marrone was a huge jerk. But we were 9-7!!! This season.... Incognito is an ass, Percy Harvin another jerk. I think Shady has a a rep as kind of a jerk. Rex Ryan is awesome, but has a dangerously large ego. 9-7 to SUPER BOWL? By the way how do we reactivate this post http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/topic/166443-list-the-all-time-bills-jerks/ Yes it is my post... but we might have some additions. Who was that huge fullback accused of being a peeping tom and (I think) exposing himself? He was good. I can not remember his name.

So recently it seems like fans stopped Freddie from being cut. I also remember Takeo Spikes signs all over the place during Spikes last game with Cincy here @ RWS. That off season he was signed. I know fans can get help get players cut (Glen Parker) or a coach fired (the last 4 head coaches not named Doug) But can fans really help a signing or force a signing a FA?

Fred Jackson cut??(UPDATE: Pegula says Hell To The No)
Iraq Vet replied to Big Turk's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Cut him and let him sign elsewhere..... if he gets no bites. He becomes a coach here. He could work with RB or strength and conditioning. -
Has Dealer Doug earned benefit of the doubt?
Iraq Vet replied to Bocephuz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I have this weird feeling SJ will be release and be back here.......... -
I know the world does not work this way... but assume we have the 4th or 5th best defense again (without Kiko) or maybe better..... Having a #4 defense and a QB having another 1/2 second to throw and another 1/2 second for WR's to make breaks is huge, because you have to respect the run every play. There is no QB on the FA market better than EJ... The draft is a crap shoot. So giving EJ more time is the best we can do this year.... Having Kiko here makes us the #1 defense...but how many more wins is that? I would argue none. The difference between 1 and 4 is nothing. A better offense is what we need. McCoy helps the offense, KIko was a luxury.... and has knee issues. This trade is a win-win.

Rex changes his tattoo to Buffalo blue

Well, you can not say Rex is not "all in"! -
could Buffalo become a Head Coach prime destination?
Iraq Vet replied to BoccesOnTransit's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You referring to sports websites on owners values? LOL Oh by the way Forbes guesses at net worth (and are often wrong). There are several people that are not on that list because their holdings are not public at all. Remember Forbes undervalued the last 3 NFL team sales... there were not even close. Most extremely wealthy people hide their wealth... for several reasons (some legal/tax reasons, some are just very private people) Knowing Ralph like we did... it seems to me he might have been like that a little bit. I read somewhere that the Mars candy fortune people are almost hermits that way there are secret about their wealth. They never talk to the press, their donations to charity are done in secret. Some say they are the wealthiest people in the world but no one knows for sure. Hiding your wealth is smarter than flunting it. -
could Buffalo become a Head Coach prime destination?
Iraq Vet replied to BoccesOnTransit's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
All of the big name coaches are hugely rich.. I get that. The difference in salaries are kinda small in relative terms. I think the original post was trying to say Buffalo is now a destination because of the wealth of the owner. Not their individual salaries. Terry can buy good people to surround the coach. Good trainers, good staff, good coaches, good equipment... it all helps a coach say "heck yeah... Buffalo might stink, but the pieces are there to build and the support is there." These HC's have huge egos... if you have the infrastructure in place.. it makes it that much easier to build a winner and be that coach that returned a team to glory. Rex pulls this off and we go to a SB... he is set for life and is remembered as a great coach. They all want a legacy! Which goes back to ego. Your going to sign with a team that give you the best chance to be remembered as great. We might have that now from a structural standpoint. Talent can be drafted and bought in free agency. Does Buffalo have the structure in place to now sell that to future HC's? I think we do. -

Iraq Vet replied to BoccesOnTransit's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
A complete misunderstanding of finances. Your house is not making you money, unless you have rental property. The Bills were making at least $20 million per year profit. Ralph also had other businesses. Which are still making the family money. To take you example to the extreme. The equity of the Bills is at least 1 Billion... so in theory RCW could have secured loans against the value to invest in other businesses. Plus, didn't RCW often loan huge amounts of money to other teams to keep them afloat. Ralph was very rich, just not Pegulia rich.
