Met Ryan Fitzpatrick briefly at Busch Gardens Yesterday
skibum replied to Spiderweb's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Also a fun player to watch. Fitz was never a guy to hold onto the ball too long. Not afraid to chuck the rock, for better or worse. -
What do you think the Bills record will be this season?
skibum replied to BmarvB's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
20-0. The Chiefs, Chargers, and Bills all go undefeated, but the Bills don't get a bye because of strength of schedule. Then they run the table in the playoffs. History is made. -
Bills: NFL's Biggest Under-the-Radar F-A Winner 2019
skibum replied to Seasons1992's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If nothing else, the Bills improved their depth dramatically with these signings. It's a major asset in a league where you know someone's getting hurt every week. Even if there are no blue chip talents in the group, they addressed a core issue just by bringing in 11 players who have all proven they can get the job done in the NFL, and will presumably make the team. A few of them will start, and maybe one or two (can we get three?) turn out to be studs. And yes, one or two will probably suck, too. But this is already so much better than the recent status quo, which was to start a bunch of other teams' cuts, and back them up with rookies and UDFAs. Or vice-versa. I would love to see them get one more player through FA or trade, maybe splurge a bit on someone more gifted. They could still use a little more high-end talent on either side of the ball. -
Are you embarrassed to wear Bills gear?
skibum replied to Another Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Not embarrassed, but because I live in New England, it can be genuinely uncomfortable. Too many Pats fans are pathetic human beings - mean-spirited, aggressively antagonistic, no class, no respect for others' fandom. Rival teams' fans are simply not welcome. I don't even go to the bar on Sunday if the Pats are playing - I got sick of being harassed, and it's not the good-natured ribbing I always enjoy with other fan bases. Fortunately, the Brady Bunch are regularly featured in the prime time slots, so there are usually a few 'safe Sundays' when I can go watch the Bills get crushed in peace. -
Bengals Release Vontaze Burfict
skibum replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It would be nice if he went to the NFC, or retired. The dirtiest player in the game today. -
Hate to say it but, I actually feel bad for Dolphins fans
skibum replied to D521646's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Oooooh, you can't really mean that!! The Giants, man?! Take it back, take it baaaaaack! Kidding aside, as a fan from WNY, I could never feel anything but scorn for NYC-based teams' fans. Especially ones who have a brutal Super Bowl victory to lord over us forever! -
If the Bills stink this year (and we all know we're not immune), it won't be because of Beane.

How the state of the Bills franchise has changed dramatically
skibum replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Ah, the Hope Season! It is upon us! -
Let's not get too excited yet. None of the FA signings are superstars, and a few of them have significant injury histories. Let's see how they play on game day before we label this team a winner.

RB Frank Gore (Dolphins) to the Bills
skibum replied to sven233's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He can still play. He won't put up big numbers on the season, but he will be a cult hero by year's end. He's the kind of player/story Bills fans can't get enough of. Like a rich man's Fred Jackson. -
RB Frank Gore (Dolphins) to the Bills

The past is looking bright for the Bills. -
TE Tyler Kroft (Bengals) to the Bills
skibum replied to sven233's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This is not a discount. -
You know your team sucks when the off-season is the best time of year.

Which Ex Bills HC Would You Hire Again?
skibum replied to BillyWhiteShows's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Worst thread ever? -
Calling it now: Zay Jones will not be on the week 1 roster.
skibum replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I could see him dropping down the depth chart, but probably not off the team. Just not enough talent to replace him. That includes Duke - who I think is far more likely than Zay to get cut. -
Face it, we have no idea what's going to happen, just like every year. The combine hasn't even happened yet. Go Sabres.

I would rather they just dispense with the charade and have them play actual flag football, or a charity softball game.

Problems with making PI reviewable...
skibum replied to LabattBlue's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
... They will make football unwatchable. Bad calls are part of the game, and there's already too much video review slowing things down. Harrumph. -
Bills hire Bobby Johnson as offensive line coach
skibum replied to GimmeSomeProcess's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He certainly has some impressive eyebrows. -
Can't the Bills find a TE that can block like Gronk?
skibum replied to PUNT750's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Can't the Bills find... a running back that can juke like Barry Sanders? ... a receiver who can leap like Randy Moss? ...a QB who can throw like John Elway? TE's like Gronk are not a dime a dozen. -
I live in Maine. I hate the Patriots so very much. Patriots fans are the only thing I really hate about living here; every other negative about Maine (isolation, rampant poverty, lack of culture) is relatively minor to me, especially in light of what a beautiful place this is. I won't go to the bar when the Pats game is on; I have been aggressively harassed and threatened just for being a Bills fan, even when (especially when) the Pats are throttling us. The accent just makes it worse. They are the worst fans in sports. And the wings suck, and of course they serve them with Ranch.

WR Duke Williams of CFL’s Eskimos Signs with Bills
skibum replied to LEBills's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I guess he wanted to move someplace warm. -
Is Danny Crossman still employed?
