Slim

I hope you brought your flame retardant suit.

Thanks. I'm a regular at Billszone. I've lurked here and at BBMB for a while, so I know people can get flamed over nothing. It happens at every message board, this ones pretty good though. If you want to see overly-testy posters go look at BBMB yikes, that place is brutal.

It's a little my fault as well. The Frazier story has been circulating all day today, and i think people assumed i was re-posting that story. I should have used a different thread title, no big deal though.

Haha, my bad. Fixed Would Cowhler work?

I'm not trying to get under anyone's skin. This report was brand new. When i posted the story here, it has been posted on WGRZ for only 20 minutes.

I posted this thread 20 minutes after this was posted at WGRZ.com. Ever hear of checking a time stamp?

You are probably right, and I'm not asking anyone to donate beyond there means. Just a small amount, is all that's needed. But at least it gets the point across. WE WANT A WINNER. Remember when we pretty much lobbied for Takeo Spikes to sign with the Bills during a Bills/ Bengals game? That worked out pretty well...

Up to 517.78 as of 4:43 pm. You guys are awesome thank you very much!

Pat is trustworthy. You can use paypal. Lol, if anything you can find him at buffalosportsdaily.com.

Thank you. Pat just received a call from the YNN for an interview. So hopefully it will take off from there.

If he takes the Carolina job before then, the money goes to Hunters Hope. Nobody is holding a gun to anybody's head. Btw, this message board has been awesome. Another guy got absolutely flamed on BBMB for the same thread.

Both, its like Buffalo Rumblings. But BSD covers high school/ college sports as well.

Honestly, this started on Monday. Pat started polls in BBMB and Buffalo Range gauging peoples support. And there was alot of support. In the first few hours on Monday over $200.00 were raised. But when Shefter started shooting down some of the Cowher reports the donations went cold.

Thanks for the support.

Note taken.

This is from Pat Moran of Buffalo Sports Daily OK, ladies and gentlemen. It’s official. Starting right now, on behalf of Buffalo Bills fans everywhere I’m officially launching the Bill Cowher billboard campaign. If you’re interested (as most have stated you are) please read on. If not, sorry to waste your time. At the end, visit the billboard page here: http://www.buffalosportsdaily.com/donate/ •We’re going to collect donations and run a billboard. Much like the “Fire Dick Jauron” billboard that was run earlier in the season, the billboard is going to run for a week. I just spoke with Jim from Lamar Advertising and got all the details. They are as follows. •The billboard will go up on Monday January 11th and run for seven days (it’s the earliest Lamar Advertising can put it up, they’re sold out for the next week). •The price is $1125 •The location is also in the same location that that Jauron billboard was at (190 Thruway, Ogden exit going downtown) •There is only one digital spot left, its first come, first serve (obviously) and the artwork would be due Friday at noon. •I will have a stickied post at the top of Buffalo Sports Daily, updating the amount raised several times per day, and other Billboard related news. •The good news is if we erect a billboard and the Bills situation changes, we can change the billboard that day. (example- We got a “We Want Bill Cowher” Billboard and he was hired the next day, we can change it to Welcome to Buffalo, Bill”.. or if the Bills hired someone else or we wanted someone else, we can change it with adcopy on the fly) This, in order will be the billboard’s message 1-An obvious “We Want Bill Cowher” billboard. 2-If he’s hired by the Bills during that time or before January 11, a “Welcome to Buffalo, Bill” billboard. 3-If Cowher decides he doesn’t want the Bills job or is hired elsewhere, we could move on to the next guy, which would be done by a quick poll and the consensus ruling. 4-If the Bills happen to hire a coach before next Monday, we welcome him to Buffalo. Regardless it won’t be difficult. If billboard option #1 isn’t out there, I will run a one-day poll on Buffalo Sports Daily with options, each fan can vote one time, and the consensus is what we’ll do. Charity Any money raised that exceeds the cost of the billboard ($1125) will go directly to charity. I’m thinking we should donate to “Hunter’s Hopes’ on behalf of Buffalo Bills fans. In the unlikely event we’re unable to raise the $1125 and can’t get the billboard (that’s not happening) EVERY penny will be donated to Hunter’s Hope. Again, I will keep a running total updated several times per day right at the top of Buffalo Sports Daily. I think this is a great way to show people how passionate Bills fans are and how desperate we are to change the losing culture at One Bills Drive. It may not have directly led to Jauron’s firing, but don’t think for a second the Bills front office didn’t pay any mind to the countless stories that came of that billboard and the national attention it brought. http://www.buffalosportsdaily.com/donate/ I do not work for Buffalo Sports Daily, i just think its a good idea. This is the same billboard Coach Sal bought up last night.
