Why not build it on the edge of the falls???
Merle Haggard replied to Merle Haggard's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Never say never Billy. You best start heading over to that local pub you were telling us about. LOL. Bottoms up old friend. Enjoy the game! -
I'm glad we didn't hire Mike Shanahan
Merle Haggard replied to major's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
LOL. Excatly. Kooky logic, is it not? LOL. Nice job of selectively slicing and dicing the numbers ace. -

Great post. The Falls would be a perfect venue and would revive the entire US side in very short order, not to mention creating an atmospher where players actually want to come and suit up. -

Thanks for the youtube video my man. Great stuff. How can we not take advantage of building a grand stadium on the edge of the falls? Sure it wont be easy, but all good things in life come with a little pain. We should do it. The steel spine types in this great region of the country deserve it. -

There are very few HC's that make great GM's. -

And what is your solution? To stick your head in the sand and declare that the Ralph is great, while it crumbles around you? LOL. The stadium should be a draw to attract the best players and fans, not a hindrance. Let's get with the program. -

Shanny ain't the GM in DC guy. How many Super Bowls did Gailey get to with or without Aikman? Hmmm??? LOL. If Gailey is so much better than Shanny than why hasn't he been hired as a head coach in the past 10 years. Hmmm??? You're right 91-69 record Shanny had without Elway ain't bad at all. Let's see how Gailey does without Aikman, Emmitt Smith, Michael Irvin, etc. Shanny's stats speak for themself. I'm hoping Gailey does great, but to say he an Shanny are comparable is madness. -

Not all stadium deals are losers. Doing nothing while the Ralph becomes further and further outdated is no answer. Think boldly here. -
Arthur Moats earns roster spot...
Merle Haggard replied to Merle Haggard's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Thanks buddy. Moats is a winner. -

Thanks buddy. Great thoughts. I want to keep it on the US side. My guess is the state would give up some land for the facility in return for the opportunity to make more tax revenue. Thanks Ray. Never say never my man. Dream big, be big. LOL. -

You doubting Thomas types are a hoot. "Oh no, it will never work...the sky is falling...change is bad..." LOL. Dummy. -

Merle Haggard replied to Merle Haggard's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm sure you were singing the same type of nonsense about one London Fletcher. LOL. He will continue to get better and better. The fact that he was a sack master at his college alma mater is just another plus. A quick LB who knows how to rush the QB is gem in this league. The kid is smart and well spoken as well. I'm smelling a winner here guys. -

Yep, you and I were one of the first ones out the gate singing the praises of this talented upstart. Good for us. LOL. -

Hey guys, Our resident looney toon stalker is at it again. Do you ever post anything football related around here? LOL Billy boy, there is absolutely no reason, from an engineering perspective, why this stadium could not be built on the US side of the mighty falls. It would be the envy of the league. We could market it as one of the seven man made wonders of the world married to one of the seven wonders of the wonder. LOL. Dream big, be big Billy boy. LOL. -

Merle Haggard replied to Merle Haggard's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I agree. Once he gets use to the fast pace of the NFL he will push Ellison aside. I see him starting sooner than later...not immediately of course, but in due time. Thanks for your thoughts. -

Merle Haggard replied to Merle Haggard's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Not sure what your point is. Putting it on the edge of the falls would make our venue the envy of the league. A natural draw. An example of the "can do" spirit that makes our part of the country so specail. "Build it and they will come" Simple as that. We should get to it... -
I'm thrilled this young upstard earned his way onto our final 53 man roster! Moats is a diamond in the rough who will soon become a household name to the Bills' faithful. Kudos for Gailey for giving this kid a shot. I have no doubt it will pay off big time. Your thoughts? Go Moats! Go Bills!!

Super Bowl Winning Quarterbacks

Agreed. -

Merle Haggard replied to major's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
True. If we do not have a committment at the highest level of this organization to be a champion, then we never will be. That said, great coaches are a necessity. Shanahan has a pedigree, Gailey does not at this point. Hopefully Gailey flourishes up here. We'll know soon enough. Okay tough guy, using your logic, how many Super Bowl trophies has Gailey won? Hmmm? LOL. Look I like Gailey and wish him the best. -

Merle Haggard replied to major's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I understand this ace, but that was many moons ago. LOL. Look, we all are hoping Gailey is a huge success, my point is that his resume is nowhere close to Shanahan's. This is beyond dispute unless one is just plain silly. Solid logic. Although, I personally liked the way he handled Haynesworth - the big guy has to step up and do his part just like everyone else. Prima donnas need not apply. LOL. -
I'm glad we didn't hire Mike Shanahan
Merle Haggard replied to major's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
LOL. Why do you suppose he was a HC much longer than Gailey? Hmmm??? Answer - because he won. Simple as that. Gailey did not win, hence his HC resume is quite thin. Can Gailey somehow miraculously morph into the next Levy? Perhaps. Using your logic, Marv Levy was nothing without Jim Kelly. Give me a fricken break. Again, I'd take the proven Shanahan over Gailey in a NY minute. -

I totally concur with your sentiments above - particularly the last sentence. Outstanding post. Thank you.
