Cynical

This is not true. With all the yelling and screaming going on during the game, a virtual vortex was created inside the stadium. That sent wind speeds up to 6 mph, and occasional gusts of 7 mph. So I am going to place the blame where it squarely belongs: The fans. Instead of yelling, screaming, and cheering, they need to shut up, sit down, and golf clap (and do not clap quickly).

I guess we define player prep differently. To me, player prep includes game planning. If the player is unsure or confused of the game plan, then the player was not properly prepared to play that particular game. This statement I find absolutely unsettling. Jauron is in his 8th year as a HC. If the jury is still out on whether he can properly plan, then the Bills are in deep ka-ka, both now and in the near future.

Thats interesting. Just recently, did we not hear a player state (to paraphrase) he felt he was NOT fully prepared? Now, IMO, burning time outs to get plays in is NOT a sign of team that is prepared.

I believe it was Jauron's decision. It is his coaching staff.

JK called out Ballard in 89, and it was the catalyst that brought the "bickering" out in the open. IIRC, Kelly got injured, and was going to miss a few games for the first time in his career. Kelly blamed the injury on Ballard, for missing a block. That was the final straw for some of the other team members. (Prior to this, Jimbo used to run around and refer to himself in the third person. Needless to say, that shtick grew old fairly quickly.) Throw in some fighting by the assistant coaches ... instant drama.

Are you kidding? If anything, the injuries to Whitner, Youboty, and McGee, the benching of Simpson, the potential loss of Greer in the offseason, and McKelvin looking like he will take longer to develop than anticipated, have proven the Bills do not have enough DB's. I expect Jauron to draft at least three more DB's in 2009. Hell, maybe 4. We are in dire straits here. One will be at least a first or second round pick. I also expect the Bills to carry 16 DB's on the active roster starting next year. As for O-line. The Bills can just sign some guys from free agency. It has worked to this point, right? Am I right? Anybody?

Fairchild? Well that explains a lot ... Don't you mean Fewell? And to answer your question, no. There is not enough talent on the team.

Yes, it is a bit of a stupid topic. Only the kool aid drinking uber-homers were predicting all three rookies would have an immediate positive impact. The rational among us realized rookies take time to develop (and that is measured in years, not weeks), and expecting veteran like performance from rookies is a case of epic failure just waiting to happen. So, yes, calling rookies a bust half way through a season is stupid.

Your logic is flawed. Why does scoring a TD take one minute from the 25, and still take only one minute from the 50+?

What does a player have to do to make it blatant? Tackle the other player? Oh ... wait ... I think the Bills player essentially did that ... in the open .... in front of the official ...

Yes it is. It is the coaches that decide who stays and who goes. Since you feel there is a talent problem, then you need to address the people who are responsible for that. And that would be the coaches.

Phantom call? That looked like a pretty clear cut case of holding.

Fire Jauron now, and it will be over. You are basically saying there is NO chance. Keep Jauron, and there still is a chance, even a slim one. Personally, I'll take a slim chance over no chance.

You are preaching to the choir with that statement. But it still does not change the fact the season is NOT over, and to pull the plug now would make it worse, not better.

It may be in peril, but it is not over. Hate to point out the obvious.

I cannot believe you are going to make me do this .... I hate Teflon Dick as much as the next guy, but to fire him now is retarded. If Teflon Dick was shown the door right now, you are basically saying the season is over. Expect last place in the division. The season is NOT over. Believe it or not, the Bills still have a chance to win the division. Teflon Dick said playoffs before the season started. You fire his ass when he has failed, not before.

From your keyboard to the sports pundits and prognosticators ears. There was no way Bama was going to win against Clemson and GA. How did that work out? I would love for Bama to roll into both games as the underdogs. It would take some pressure off the team.

That's okay. Karma's a Andre Reed will go down in history as a HOF, and Ronnie Harmon will go down in history as trivia question.

Have you updated the flash plug-in? Separate one for Firefox. I know it seems stupid, but I had a similar issue earlier today. I updated the flash plug in for IE, rebooted, and the next time I tried to access a site that had flash, Firefox griped about a missing plug in. Installed the flash plug-in for Firefox, and all was well. FYI: I am running FF3 Just my 2 cents.

Believe it or not, Syracuse and some of the other schools in the Big East actually are attempting to be competitive. They may be failing at it miserably, but they are trying.

I am not overly concerned what his stats say. I watched him play. He did not operate in traffic well. He was constantly trying to bounce stuff to the outside. But if you want to go the stat route, compare his stats when he was in Buffalo to when he was in SD. SD used him as an H-Back. Buffalo did not. When Harmon ran from the H-Back position, he was running pitch outs, laterals, sweeps, reverses, etc.. anything to get him into open space, and running to the outsides.

Um, no he is not. Harmon was not that good running the ball from the RB position. Harmon was way too much East-West. Even SD realized that, and lined Harmon up as an H-Back, not a RB.

Unfortunately, it is. The bucket in the corner is a health hazard for sure, and the officer can cite the inhabitants for it, but that's it. The kids stays. There has to be a pattern of re-occurrence or of non-compliance before the gov't will yank the kids out.

Eating pop tarts takes on different perspective when a gallon of milk, a box twinkies, and a box of pop tarts are the only sources of food in the house. There is no bread, eggs, no Hungry Man frozen dinners, etc... In your case and in the case of your friend, there is probably more to eat than just pop tarts and twinkies.
