  1. That the "Interstate Recognition of Notarizations Act." got passed by both houses of congress in a day tells about all you need to know about congresses relationship with the wall street and the banking industry- ie owned I'm kinda surprised that Obama vetoed it - did he do it on principle or because he knew there would be major blow back- maybe the straw that breaks the camel's back type thing.
  2. 2002 - Bills take Mike Williams shocking many who think Bryant Mckinnie the #1 OT 2003- Bills take Willis McGahee even though his leg was almost torn off and they had Travis Henry- not a great draft as out of the three most wanted players (Dallas Clark, Boss Bailey, and William Joseph) only Clark went on to have a good career. 2004- Bills take Lee Evans and use our 2nd and next years 1st to trade back into the 1st round with Dallas and take J.P Losman- a lot of people were wishing for Tommy Harris, Vince Wilfork, or Will Smith when the Bills took Evans and J.P. Losman was on nobody's radar we thought the move up was for Wilfork but that has never been confirmed. Looking back I don't think Evans was a bad pick even though I prefer taking the good big man when possible, but there is no doubt that Losman was a very expensive reach. 2005- no 1st, Parrish in the 2nd Kevin Everett 3rd- I would have liked Vince Jackson but in reality Parrish contributed more than Jackson for his first three seasons because of his awesome return ability and Kevin Everett was just very unlucky and never got a chance to show his full ability. 2006- the killer- Whitner over Ngata trading up for McCargo who was thought by many as a 3rd-4th round value. 2007- Lynch, Poz, and Edwards- didn't work out but I can't really criticize I thought they were all reasonable picks. 2008. -Mckelvin - two problems 1. do you really take a CB when an OT like Clady is there and 2. if you're set on taking a CB why McKelvin over Cromartie, at the time we were looking for a larger CB to face Moss. 2009 - Another killer Aaron Maybin just a horrible pick - the rest of the draft seemed pretty good 2010- Really didn't like the Spiller pick but who knows in summery a history off bad drafting combined with poor luck
  3. start at 14.20
  4. Evans for Mankins move Wood to Center cut Green grab Herman Johnson off Arizona's practice squad trade Dwan Edwards and/or Spencer Johnson to Washington for Haynesworth dump the 3-4 bring back Chris Ellis OL- starters Bell, Levitre, Wood, Mankins, Johnson- backups Wang, Hangartner, Urbik, Howard DL- starters Carrington, Haynesworth, Williams, Ellis- backups Kelsay, Troup, Stroud, Maybin cut McCargo pick up Brandon Carter OG off practice squad
  5. Bills tailgaters should recycle, but we will need one more than normal, one bin for plastic, one bin for glass, one bin for cans, one bin for paper bag masks, and an extra bin for tears.
  6. Sorry for the low number of replies I guess I could be like OC and post every other post and sometimes post two out three posts that would bump up the reply count. Old Fart! how disrespectful, for shame, and I know it's shocking when I would post a billionaire's opinion which supports my own - does it hurt? because I'd love to butter my toast with you pain.
  7. I think you mean sprocket science. now we dance.
  8. If we were to trade Evans I'd want Mankins not a mid-round draft pick
  9. The only player you mention who was considered a can't miss guy was JaMarcus Russel.
  10. good move adding Dwan Edwards Crap moves just about everything else, the Bills are the George Costanza of the NFL and they should do the opposite.
  11. Since Ellis is making $470,000 and Kelsay is making $4,200,000 + bonus, my guess is Ellis might have questioned whether Kelsay is playing ten times better.
  12. No it's an old scheme by Ralph (we put out a crap product and you'll buy it because you got no where else to go)
  13. I don't remember too many people on this board clamoring for Clausen- I remember people like me wanting A. Davis, B Bulaga, M. Iupati, or M Pouncey- and a lot of people loved the Spiller pick I was not one of them, but I don't really remember great cry for Clausen in the 1st round.
  14. Sarcasm my friends, kinda my anti-Steve Wynn, or the antidote for any other " He a successful businessman so he must know what economic policies we need" rhetoric, Gates and Buffett are both kinda progressives that must be like a dagger to a neo-consevatives dark heart.
  15. Since Buffett makes much more money than you he must be a lot smarter than you so maybe you should rethink your position.
  16. I say if you think a QB is special you get him but you don't force it like the Losman pick ( ie the guy we wanted is off the board who's next at that position)otherwise I'm looking for OL, OLBs, DEs, NTs, WRs, TE's in that order.
  17. it's not about balls it's about blow back. I'll explain, Dems gave the Bankers about 80-90% of what they wanted but that wasn't enough- Republicans said we'll give you 100% of what you want so give us all your support - so the banks went from giving out money at about a 1 to 1 split to an 8 to 1 split in favor of Republicans, oops now the Dems in charge have no reason to give political cover and if there is one group that polls lower than congress it's the bankers- so expect the finance industry to start getting a little beat up, maybe not for the right reasons but deservingly so.
  18. how about Evans and a our 4th rd pick to SD, Vince Jackson to the Pats and Mankins to us.
  19. We can't have meglev high speed rail, that's only for advanced countries with national will, and everybody knows national will is for suckers! it's a global everyman for themselves Randian outlook that will carry the day- soon they will get rid of NASA and reverse rural electrification and we can all be happy.
