  1. I'm sorry, but I have absolutely no sympathy for the players. They are not in any way shape or form partners with the owners. They are employees, albeit high priced ones. Guys like Jerry Jones and Daniel Snyder, who truly are the kind of guys I wouldn't want my daughter to marry, have invested huge sums in their teams. They could have chosen wiser, more profitable investments, but chose football. They are entitled to a return on their investments and expecting one does not in and of itself make them greedy. The players are truly fortunate that there are owners who have made these incredibly huge investments so that they can get paid, handsomely in somne cases, to play a game (and let's not forget that it is a game) that they love. They are not victims simply because the owners make money from their efforts. The owners' collective investments have provided them with their opportunity to pursue their dreams. This is not about being pro or anti union. Instead, it is about a group of young men who have been given the opportunity to continue to do something that they love. How can anyone possibly suggest that going to work every day to a job that you love is in some way akin to bein used and abused. If it is, we should all be so lucky. Most men would give up plenty to have a job/career/avocation they love instead of one that they are trapped in with no way out.
  2. If he falls to 34, Buddy will be everybody's hero here at TBD. If he doesn't, then Buddy will be the doofus that didn't trade up to draft him. Poor guy, it's almost like having a few thousand wives second guessing everything he does. But, since it is March in WNY, what else have we got to do?
  3. I know...Michael Vick inspired him!
  4. Are you kidding me? He went for the chicken and waffles!
  5. No, Newman is the mailman from Seinfeld.
  6. Is he the guy with his picture on the salad dressing, or is he the guy on the cover of Mad Magazine?
  7. Maybe he can rap with Maybin...
  8. I know that he is not a QB, but is Donte a bad ass name?
  9. I absolutely guarantee someone will post a link to that gay peter pan pic. Groan...
  10. No, OJ got his in fencing.
  11. But wait, we have Wang, Wood, Hangartner and Levitre in our middle, as well as a Johnson hanging off the end.
  12. Sounds like Brian Brohm. My point is sometimes you just don't know and need to be lucky. The Bills are due for some luck imo, preferrably of the Andrew variety.
  13. The good news is that Maybin got him in with his barber and they are making a rap album together.
  14. He is a pass catcher regarless of where he plays, as opposed to Chris Watson who was a punt catcher.
  15. Maybe next year in training camp, Wood can scream at Maybin to earn his money like Moats does. If Moats held out, maybe he could have a dumb haircut and be a rapper too.
  16. That was as cold as it is outside Mr Weo. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
  17. He wants to be like Jim Kelly when he grows up.
  18. They obviously are not watching the same games that the rest of us are watching. What sucks most is that they are actually getting paid to be that stupdid!
  19. What a thoughtful reply. Did you wander onto this board by mistake?
  20. Great idea, but if we add him to Buddy and Chan, we might as well scrap the Shout song for the Dukes of Hazzard theme song!
  21. How could any semilucid person even begin to remotely believe that April and Fewell would have had even the slightest desire to stay after being passed over for the head coach position. Picture Buddy Nix telling either one that they were just what he needed or wanted AFTER telling them that they were not up to the task of being head coach. He might as well try selling them the Brooklyn Bridge.
  22. Yeah, and I bet you think OJ deserves a second chance too.
  23. Passing is very exciting, but in order to consistently win in the NFL, you need to be able to run and defend against the run.
  24. I think he gets one false start, a holding penalty, and then spills gatorade on himself when he comes out after the second 3 and out series.
  25. I think I overheard Marshown saying something about enhanced drivers licenses costing $20.
