  1. Those uniforms are very good. I also wish the white helmet with the red standing buffalo would return. The current design is ok but overdone. Too " busy "
  2. That's the key. If so, then the Bills can concentrate on shoring up other positions of need.
  3. Going for almost 10 grand. I'm betting the bidder is an agent for Michael Jackson.
  4. Drew had his stage set at home against Pittsburgh and turned in a dreadful performance. How could we expect to go deep into the playoffs after viewing that effort. Others shared in the bad effort, I realize. Who's ICE ?
  5. The Greeter at the Amherst Wal-Mart.
  6. The good Doctor is wise. My thinking exactly.
  7. He doesn't kickoff anymore. That means having to waste another roster spot for a kickoff specialist.
  8. I agree, D. Well stated.
  9. That idea backfired on Elton John...pardon the pun.
  10. The difference being Marino got rid of the ball quickly.
  11. I stated Drew has BECOME DeBerg, not had the exact same career as DeBerg. You can disagree without being snotty.
  12. I thought it was 95 ? Bledsoe sure started out better but now I can't tell the difference between DeBerg and Bledsoe. Likeable fellows, but...
  13. Those original terms were erased this past summer. What does that have to do with performance ? I did state he was the right guy for 2004. 2005 is a different story.
  14. Nice intelligent reply. I'm not bashing DB at all. Just offering an observation on our future at QB. This is the knee jerk mentality of some here. This is a discussion board, right ?
  15. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2004/writ.../11/sub.sub.qb/ That quoted phrase was from Bill Walsh, when players who could only take you so far. DeBerg was the consumate gamer, who couldn't move from the pocket and was exposed by any Defense who wished to blitz. Sound familiar ? During his career, he gave way to Montana in San Fran, Steve Young in Tampa Bay and Elway in Denver. The logic of many here is that Losman has proven nothing while Bledsoe has vast experience. Sounds like DeBerg all over again. Montana was injured often at Notre Dame and watched while the immortal Rusty Lisch played most games at QB for the Irish. San Fran selected Montana in the 3rd round in 1979 and he sat and watched DeBerg start his rookie year. In 1980, Walsh made the switch to the often injured and unproven Montana and DeBerg was traded away after 1980. Amazing what can possibly happen if you actually take a chance, instead of settling for DeBerg. DB has become DeBerg, the QB good enough to get you beat. DeBerg finished with over 34,000 yards passing but will remind no one of Montana, Elway or Young. All 3 were were complete unknowns at the pro level. All were given a chance to see if they could play over an established veteran who could only take a team so far. The Bills will drill Losman this entire off-season and monitor his progress. If he's not the answer, then making a move towards someone else would be a wise move, instead of settling for more of average DB and his multiple limitations. Labeling Losman a cripple due to his one training camp injury is a stretch of epic proportions. Without any OL his senior year at Tulane, he passed for 33 TD's with only 14 INT's. Then he breaks his leg in Camp and suddenly he's the next Christopher Reeve, to some folks. What a load. With that thinking, the brittle Montana never should have received an opportunity from Bill Walsh in his 2nd year. He should have held a clipboard for a few more years while the proven DeBerg continued to play. Only Walsh didn't fear the unknown. I doubt Mularkey does either. Bledsoe was the right QB for 2004. In 2005, we stand a beter chance of reaching the playoffs with someone else. No more limitation QB's, like DeBerg and Bledsoe. Real hope.
  16. Jackson was amazing in concert . Great call.
  17. The Defense. That's how I explain that win.
  18. Those were great times. Fantastic choices. I would also include the following, who's debut albums were extraordinary: Elvis Costello - (1977) My Aim is True New York Dolls- ( 1973 ) - They started the whole punk era. The Pretenders- (1980) The B-52's- (1979)
  19. In a lifetime, a human will eat about 5 spiders in their sleep.
  20. In 1976 a Los Angeles secretary named Jannene Swift officially married a 50-lb rock. The ceremony was witnessed by more than 20 people.
  21. In Gulliver's Travels, Jonathan Swift described the two moons of mars, Phobos and Deimos, giving their exact size and speeds of rotation. He did this more than 100 years before either moon was discovered.
  22. Bob Kuechenberg :I starred in Brokeback Mountain:
