  2. They offered because he has a very good story line for the show. They have had other cases of a popular person having cancer. They also tend to put on a few athletes.
  3. true---most of the states population have grown from decade to decade but congress is based on raw population numbers so other states grew by higher amounts to take congressional seats from the midwest and north east. Last census Texas gained 4 seats and all of it could be attributed to the Latin population growth in the state. From 2000cto 2010 the white population was at rate that wouldnt have had it gain a congressional seat. From someone who lives in Seattle/Portland. You dont go weeks without the sun. You do see the sun, its just not that common in November-February in terms of rainfall Atlanta gets more annual rain. No it doesnt rain constantly In the summer it doesnt get oppressively hot (outside of about 4-6 days a year) and humid in the summer. Buffalo is viewed as the snow capital of the country but its not. Its all about the image. I have noticed in the last 20 years in Buffalo it seems there has been a climate change where getting the humid days was not as common as it is now.
  4. In the preseason they want to see how Hogan is in starting against NFL DBs to evaluate him as a slot receiver.
  5. I live in the Seattle area---- Lynch has been known to have him or his "possie" damage and break someones cell phone if they walk up and take a picture of him while he is out. My bet a similar incident happened. They were out at a bar, woman comes up to take a picture, one of his security grabs the phone and destroys it...naturally in the process he "assults the woman to get the phone out of her hand then the property damage happens when they break and destroy the phone. This stuff has happened multiple times.
  6. Saying we traded Spiller for Watkins is utterly dumb. drafting Watkins doesnt make Spiller expendable
  7. Is this some foreign concept of having Lewis and Tuel alternate playing with 2nd and 3rd stringers?
  8. all fans get a free 6 pack of twinkies that they can chuck onto the field in protest or celebration.
  9. the No Fun League now chooses No "F%^&ing "L"
  10. My two cents...... 1. li understand there is a policy of allowing season ticket holder the ability to purchase more game tickets first...but put a limit on this to allow fans access to game tickets. I dont live in Buffalo anymore, but i usually come into town for a weekend, may do a Bills game. 2. I disagree with closing that walk pathway because of the fan death. 3. The Verizon band with in the stadium sucks. When i was there trying to use my celphone to see other scores the thing was slow or not respond. I recal Verizon had a sponsorship agreement with the NFL for mobile broadcasting. i guess it only applies if you arent in a stadium. 4. Why the change in sponsorship of training cup??? I am thinking the NHRA Drag Racing is eyeing sponsorship.
  11. I am waiting to judge on him....besides him being a rookie he had a rookie QB and two rookie WRs. Generally in those situations they keep it basic the fist year, then build from there in the offseason.
  12. just to add...Niagara Falls draws tourists from around the world....think of the global marketing opportunities from an NFL wide perspective if the build this walking distance to the falls. It would be key for them to get an NFL experience park that operates year round. With it, they could get some stuff from the HOF StaThey could also create a dedicated security line to the stadium after clearing customs that means the ticket holders only need to go through this once. this will add a level of effiiciency. Its easier to process pedestrians than it is cars. Also remember for those that drive over there are two other bridges they can use rather easily to cross. this will add efficiency of transport.look at other stadiums Hopefully they would build such a stadium to also comply with soccer size field requirements ---they could host a few world cup games whenever the USA hosts again I think Erie might be able to come to some sort agreement on revenue sharing from the taxes, or the team as a corpooration stays in Erie county.. Look at the Potatoskins///dadium in Maryalnd, team HQ and practice facility in Virginia.
  13. when I looked at the draft chart Buffalo could have done this for this for just their 2nd. The talk was Detroit was also looking to trade up. That may have driven up the price.
  14. From clevealand pick on down Buffalo can trade up at a more reasonable price based on the draft chart pick values where they only need to give up their 2nd round pick
  15. Buffalo doesnt need him. I hope they dont draft him. What they need is a WR/TE with size.
  16. Try 1987 he was drafted..... My first draft was 1981 or around then. I was too sick to go to school....
  17. Last time I checked there ws a Sabres game tonight so they do preggame coverage for that. If Buffalo had signed someone Im sure they would have changed and covered it.
  18. If I am not mistaken ----compensatory picks are given for lost drafted players by the NFL. they usually appear at the end of the 2nd round, end of thirsd round, etc. based ona formula where the player was drafted and what he was signed for.
  19. Off the whale option---look at some of the very good defenses at 4-5 and pluck the DL/LB coach (Seattle??? San Fran??? Carolina???) I think Singletary would be adecent DC
  20. My concern with Wade Phillips is that Bufalo goes to a 3-4...if he can stick with a 4-3 system then fine but changing to a 3-4 system just cant happen.
  21. Pettine---you really dont want this gig. they just fired the coach adter 1 year.Do you want to get fired after 1 yr too? the team is in dire straights where it appears they are gutting and trading away their team and need to rebuild from scratch again which will take a 3+ yr project. In the NFL now you will get canned for certain after 3 yrs because many sr mgmt dont realize how long it takes to rebuild a team. Dont you enjoy facing the Jets, Pats, and fins 2 times a year??
