Why does it have to be "ruined him"? Why can't it be "he never learned to adapt"? Or, he has talent, but "not enough to compete at the NFL level"? So he beat out a back up, and that automatically translates into being a starter at some point? Could it possibly be being a back up QB is all Trent is good enough for? This has been brought up before. Assuming TE is "suffering" from PCS, then TE really needs to reconsider his career choice. Playing a violent game may not be in his best interest health wise. If the team had Trent's best interest in mind, they would actually dump his ass. Let another team contribute to Trent becoming mindless vegetable by the time he is 30. Interesting statement, as regular working men and women deal with this issue everyday of their working lives. Trent (or any football player and coach) is no different.

And I could be the "Disinterested 3rd Party" that would hold the money in escrow until the event took place. Trust me.

So who do we love and who do we hate?
Cynical replied to Mikie2times's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You forgot Evans Unless you are SouthGeorgiaBillsFan, than "ourselves" moves into the hate category -
Can I quote you on this? Because this is in direct contradiction of what a lot of people (fans, front office, coaching staff, Trent(?)) were saying last year. Last year, those same people were saying the reason Edwards was NOT throwing the ball down field was due to the fact opposing teams could just double Evans, forcing TE to checkdown. Bringing TO on was supposed to OPEN UP the passing game, and thus revealing to us mere mortals, the true greatness of Trent Edwards.

Pssst. See below:

Sad part is, some people on this board WANT Brohm to start just so they can determine if we the Bills need to draft a QB in the upcoming draft. They guy has been here 5 weeks(?), plucked from another teams practice squad, and people want to use the next TWO games to make a definitive answer on a project type player.

Listening To Thurman On WGR Right Now
Cynical replied to BuffaloBaumer's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Thurman Thomas, the new GM of the Bills -
Dog, you cannot blame THAT on anybody but yourself (and I'm not saying you did). That ... ooh ... wow ... ouch. TO made your list, and now you are attempting to qualify it. Here is your quote I responded to: The part in bold literally describes you and your reaction to TO. You blame Edwards inability to be a leader on TO, or more specifically, Trent's "refusal" to cater to TO. Back in June ... June .... it was revealed nobody on the team considered TE a leader of the team. June. Before training camp, and way before TO played a game in a Bills uni. Heck, even Kelly noticed a problem back in October (if IIRC). Kelly stated when the offense came off the field, nobody was communicating with each other. Trent went over to nobody, and nobody went over to Trent. True effective leaders do NOT sit in isolation with their thoughts. Show me any team, whether its competitive sports or in business, where the leader(s) is/are not communicating with everybody else, and I'll show you a team that is failing. Then stop blaming TO for Edwards failure. Otherwise, you "dislike a Bills player so much you throw all logic out the window in an effort to bash your own teams player".

Dude in Rochester sentenced to 3 life sentences
Cynical replied to JÂy RÛßeÒ's topic in Off the Wall Archives
True. But when people start talking about the cost of justice via the legal system, they are talking about the cost of justice itself. -
Technically, he could be correct. There are 32 starters in the league. There are at least 32 back up QBs (second string, 32+ if you include third stringers). So, it IS quite possible Edwards better than 1/2 of the QB. Unfortunately, He is still nothing more than back up at best.
-
Wow, this team sucks. Good thing I am not a fan. Edit: Damn it. 5Wide beat me to it.
-
Wouldn't it be easier to list the things that do NOT suck? Such as: 1. ?
-
So says the guy who leads a crusade against TO. A bit of advice: Before preaching, better make sure you are practicing.

I didn't realize justice had a "price". -
Hell, if this FO had half a brain, once Peters was traded, they would have signed/drafted a legit LT, and left Walker in RT position. Walker would still be here playing RT.
-
Didn't matter if the Bills ran the no huddle or not. Walker was destined to fail at the LT spot. He was too slow to play the position.

break the bank for brandon marshall
Cynical replied to Football Mountain's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Johnson? Pffft. Peterson from Minnesota. Unless I am mistaken (and I could be), Vikings would be willing to accept a 6th or 7th round pick in 2013 draft. -
Bunch of wussies. The Bills played the Browns in a "blizzard" (a blizzard I tell ya. Once in a lifetime type) just a couple of years ago.

Montana Grizzlies vs. Villa Nova Wildcats Congrats to Villa Nova winning their first football national championship. I only caught the second half, and for the last two minutes of the game, I thought Jauron had taken over the coaching duties at Montana. Down by 9, all TO left, and he has team throwing screens and dump offs. And their hurry up was about as fast the Bills. Even more interesting, Villa Nova did NOT go into prevent mode on D.

Shoulda, coulda, woulda ... But he didn't. In fact, he had the last opportunity, took 2 sacks, and looked completely lost and confused. Again, shoulda, coulda, woulda ... But he did win. No excuses need to be made. Keep kidding yourself. Nobody is claiming Fitz will be the savior, or is the long term answer at QB. But we also realize a QB that regresses in his development rarely turns it around. Trent is toast.
-
You are right, TO will be gone in a few weeks. And you can attempt to spin it however you want, but it will still not dispute the facts. Back in June, even before the team gathered for training camp, not a single player described Edwards as a leader. Got that? NOT A SINGLE PLAYER DESCRIBED EDWARDS AS A LEADER. Not Evans. Not Whitner. Not Lynch. Not Stroud. Not Josh Reed. Not Schobel. Etc ... After TO leaves, what will be your excuse be when the remaining players still say Trent Edwards is not a leader?
-
Accuracy is probably Fitzpatrick's biggest downside. But at least he is trying to win, and is a leader on the team. Can't say that about Trent "Not a Bills fan" Edwards.
-
Nope. Did you forget: Edwards - 21 sacks in 6 games Fitzpatrick - 17 sacks in 7 games

Hell, I wish. For the record: UA recognizes 12 NC, and that seems to be the universally accepted number among rational people*. (IIRC, the NCAA recognizes Bama winning 17 NC. Whatever.) * rational people = any non-Auburn fan, as most Auburn fans are freaking loony Unquestionable. If you go back and read through the thread, I even set out time frame of Tide fan expectation for Saban. An SEC championship wasn't really expected until the 4th or 5th year. Competing for a NC? Hopefully by the time his 8 year contract ran out. (Side note: Saban has already signed a 3 yr extension) Assuming Saban had decided to stay in the NFL in 2006, things would have gotten quite interesting. After being rebuffed by Rich Rod and Saban, I could not hazard a guess who would have ended up as the Bama HC. I know Paul Johnson was a candidate for the position, but would he have settled for being the "third" choice? As for Saban, IMHO, barring a miracle, Saban would have been fired after the 2007 NFL season. It's quite possible Saban may have ended up at Michigan (he did spend 5 years at Mich St). I wonder how Michigan fans feel about that possibility?

Not paying can be a good thing or a bad thing. If the defendant has the money, it is in their best interest to pay as quickly as possible. Once judgment has been passed, the creditor can usually charge interest on top of the judgment. Once you have a judgment, there are several options to collect. To cover a few: You can start slapping judgment liens on any property they may own. If the other party collects a paycheck, you can tap/dock their wages from their employer* Tap a bank account* *These 2 options would usually require getting an additional court order
