  1. Just as stupid as the present 'B1G'.
  2. Nobody is saying the sack doesn't count, it does count. But the sack didn't happen because of Maybin's "outstanding" abilities or athleticism. As it has been already pointed out, Maybin was so far removed from the play, if it wasn't for Bart Scott flushing Flacco out of the pocket, Maybin never gets the opportunity to make that play. He was persistent, I will give that. "High Motor" Maybin.
  3. Jealousy and little brother syndrome.
  4. No it doesn't, trust me. You may even come to enjoy it.
  5. Another great article. One thing that really jumped out at me: Gailey must be really comfortable with Fitzpatrick if he's allowing his QB to do that.
  6. I got to stop reading this stuff real late late at night.
  7. My link
  8. IMHO, they will be signed. Right now, season is in full swing, and I think both sides are trying to feel the other side out.
  9. Yeah, but the opposite of that is the number idiots who will "gleefully" dig up old columns and articles of the "experts" in attempt to hold them accountable for their saying negative stuff about the Bills. Jesus, let it go. Enjoy the ride.
  10. Stability - yeah I can see it. Old owner, don't know when he'll pass, what happens to the franchise after that, etc ... Sustainability? Seriously? Yeah, it's pretty freaking hard to sustain anything when a team gets mired in salary cap hell. Can't really do much when 30% of the salary cap is dead cap space. If Butler had one serious flaw it was player value. The guy had no concept.
  11. We can only hope, as a Bills fan and as a fan of the NFL. Getting pretty tired of seeing the same teams over and over again. And before anybody responds, I do understand why we see the same teams again and again.
  12. Don't worry about it. A Jets fan already brought it up:
  13. I heard about the shared TV network. Aggies on the Bama boards have talked about it. FWIW, they claim Texas wanted a 70/30 split. I never brought it up, because I had no idea if it was pure BS or not. What I did find interesting are some of the comments made by AD Dodds. I can't say for sure if it's him, the school or both, but some of those comments smack of arrogance: "It's not about what we did," Dodds said. "It's about what they didn't do -- create their own network." Yes and no. Other than approaching aTm, Texas never proposed a conference wide network. And the only reason Texas approached aTm was due Texas not believing it could do it alone Heck, Texas even admits this: "At the time, the Longhorns weren't sure they could carry a network on their own." Does this mean if Texas knew then they could carry it by themselves, would they have even approached aTm? "Nobody seemed concerned with it until it was done," Dodds said. "I find it interesting that it's a problem today ... If somebody is surprised by this deal, they haven't been paying attention." Actually, no. Many people within Texas A&M had a problem with it. It was when Texas started talking about broadcasting the high school games of potential recruits, that was the last straw. "Dodds would not comment on speculation on which teams that may be invited to join, such as BYU or Pittsburgh." Why is Pitt still being mentioned? They are going to the ACC. Does the Big12 actually think they could entice Pittsburgh? Or Arkansas (Arkansas has already admitted they were contacted by the Big12. )?
  14. No longer a rumor, it's official: My link Welcome to the SEC, Aggies.
  15. Got to say it: It's hard to win in the NFL.
  16. You need to keep up? Topic already being discussed: My link
  17. Only if you were completely devoid of all senses. I thought it was pretty blatant the team had no real identity. Here's all you need to know about Trent's "career": Question: How does a QB become " tentative, scared, unsure, and lacking a winning mentality" when all he's done prior is lead the team to "squeaking away wins against bad teams"? Answer: He doesn't become "tentative, scared, unsure, and lacking a winning mentality" simply because he already was "tentative, scared, unsure, and lacking a winning mentality". Half time adjustments - a myth that keeps getting repeated like it's a fact. No, it does not. This right up there with people who wanted to believe that running the no huddle would help a young, inexperienced line. What helps to neutralize our "average" line is a decisive QB that gets rid of the ball quickly. Simply put, the less time the ball is in the hands of the QB = the less time the Oline has to pass block.
  18. Yes, I do. 2 of them. BB HC with the Browns With Testeverde: 16-15 Without Testeverde: 20-29 With Kosar: 11-18 1. Who was the HC that replaced Kosar with Testeverde? 2. Who was the HC when the Pats drafted Brady?
  19. Kind of like Jauron's 13-3 season in Chicago. But how many people pointed to that "accomplishment" as testament of Jauron's ability? And even a bigger question, how many people still do? Maybe so, but BB's coaching (as DC & HC) resume prior to Brady speaks for itself.
  20. Makes sense. Fans are still in their seats, and security doesn't seem concerned with it coming down.
  21. Pic on the WBEN web site My link Not sure who took it down
  22. <Yawn> Ho-hum, another Leach "puff" piece. I will admit, he is "honest" with his opinions. Now, whether or not is he truthful remains to be seen.
  23. Um, no. You got 11 teams in the east, and 10 teams in the west. You got Boston College, Virginia, and Virginia Tech in the west You failed to mention Texas A&M (you know, the one team that really is joining the SEC) The SEC has already said no to West Virginia (I do wonder if the denial was based on WVU still being a part of the Big East) Clemson is bad enough, but what the hell does Tulane bring to the table? and for that matter, Maryland and Boston College? Georgia State has a better shot at joining the SEC before Miami does (at least in the immediate future)
