  1. Yeezus is way worse than SaviorP. However, isn’t it interesting that so many others agree with their takes, however bizarre? It is just mind-boggling how an enjoyable win can bring out so much doom and gloom from so-called fans.
  2. Between the politics of kneeling during the anthem, and the pisspoor officiating, the league is killing the golden goose. It’s a shame actually.
  3. If the Bears lose due to that pick, it’ll be tough for the kid.
  4. So, I'm guessing none of you want to buy my home and away Watkins jerseys.
  5. Perhaps Mills has a brother that we could hire to replace him!
  6. Boy, I thought Winston and the Bucs were supposed to be good. I guess not.
  7. Tyrod kept us in the game for 1st overall pick. He speaks the truth!
  8. Remember, we knocked an official out of the game. It's just like killing a cop. After that, you are dead meat.
  9. @Ralph, can you please translate your post? I can't understand anything you wrote.
  10. That's the best damn news I've heard today!
  11. My wife's pissed off, but not at the Bills. LOL
  12. If Shady can't run behind this line, we really might not win a game.
  13. Interestingly, part of the "culture" comes from outside of the team. I know that players and coaches say they don't read the news, but they're out in public and experience the community mindset. They can't help but feel the culture of losing from our community. Remember the "lovable losers?" As a WNY ex-pat, it is clear to me that the way of life in WNY is to accept being second best. Buffalo has always been second to NYC. When the NFL expanded in the 50s, teams from the old AAC like Cleveland and San Francisco got into the NFL. Buffalo was left out. When Branch Rickey's Continental Baseball League was to become the third major league in 1959, Buffalo was chosen, but we know how that turned out. Again, Buffalo was left out. When MLB expanded in 1968, Buffalo again was chosen, then somehow we ended up as the Montreal Expos. I still don't understand how that happened. But yet again, Buffalo was on the outside looking in. And finally, how about those four consecutive Super Bowl losses. People from all over the world still bring that up when you mention Buffalo. We're always second best, or left out. Whether it's the local government or the sports teams. WNYers have always been left playing second fiddle. We were all born and raised that way, and it's not going to change. Unless the Bills can find another ultra-self-confident leader, like Jim Kelly was when he got to Buffalo, that community "second best" culture will always be present in the locker room.
  14. Sure, but even then, he averaged over 1,000 yards a season over his 10-year career. His average yards per catch was 18.9. They didn't keep YAC stats back then, but he was usually running pretty free. Those are pretty awesome numbers for the 1960s, don't you think?
  15. The most remarkable WR I ever saw in-person or on TV was Lance Alworth. In an age where receivers weren't untouchable like today, Bambi tore up the field. He was fast, agile and was a great route-runner. His hands were soft and he almost never dropped a pass or fumbled the ball. And, he was hit by some of the best, when high hits were legal, too. While his coach Sid Gilman revolutionized the game to what we have today, he couldn't have done it without a receiver to fit the bill. Alworth is the closest to today's elite WRs that you'll find from the old days. He'd clearly be elite if he played today. You can't say that about many if any old players at any position.
  16. Wilbon & Kornheiser make absolutely no sense to me, either. Interesting!
  17. It'll look like Pyongyang after Kim launches against Guam.
  18. Since the trades, I've been thinking a lot about what that draft capital might bring. It dawned on me that it's possible that after another dismal season in Indianapolis, they might go into total rebuild mode. If this happens, might Andrew Luck be available for a couple first-round picks? Would this be something the Bills would consider after his shoulder issues?
  19. Nobody did any explaining as to what happened, but it was clear that the two were having a very animated discussion on the sidelines during the game. If this was about Sammy whining, or wanting out, or something similar, I can see where Boldin took it to management.
  20. Maybe it has something to do with the argument between Anquan and Sammy last night.
  21. I hoped they'd just eliminate the fair catch altogether. You still can't interfere with the ability to make the catch, but this is football. If you're going to catch the ball, then you should expect to be fair game. Otherwise, let it go.
  22. and yet MMA continues... not to mention boxing and cage fighting.
  23. You can say that again!
