  1. I am confident in the '05 squad, but let's not forget they beat 6 nobody's last year and the Jets, Rams, and Shehawks (who are not exactly powerhouses).

    Seattle, St. Louis and the Jets may not be POWERHOUSES, but they were all playoff teams last year. Give a little credit, where credit is due.

  2. As do I!!!  Stern, NFL, NBA & Radio Margaritaville!!!!!!!!!!!!

    wait til you see the new recievers they will be coming out with, a real nice slim line car reciever and a nice walk-around to compete with xm's myfi

    I was typing my last post at the same time as yours. Have you heard the timeframe for when Sirius will be debuting this receiver?

     

    Thanks!

  3. Vikings | Tice Plays Good Samaritan

    Fri, 29 Jul 2005 05:53:57 -0700

     

    Don Seeholzer, of the Pioneer Press, reports Minnesota Vikings head coach Mike Tice spent part of his last day before training camp visiting a 10-year-old Minneapolis boy who was hit in the side by a stray bullet Sunday, July 24, while playing football in his back yard. He presented the boy with a signed football, a QB Daunte Culpepper picture and a flag football kit. He also extended an invitation to the boy to attend a Vikings practice after he is released from the hospital. Then when the boy wasn't looking, Tice swiped his prized rare football card collection and is trying to scalp it on ebay. :blush:

  4. If reports are true (that JP put his shoulder into Vincent), it's more like keep JP away from Vincent.

    Yeah that makes sense. The guy with the red jersey on in order to protect him from being hit, goes out of his way to throw a shoulder into a defensive back who is trying to avoid contact with him. If that's the case, I have grave concerns about the level of common sense that are QB of the future has. :blush:

  5. TD comment on Roscoe negotiations....

     

    "This isn't at the point where you would say, "Boy, we're really concerned about that particular player,' " Donahoe said. "We've had conversations (with Rosenhaus). We've talked about some parameters of the kinds of deals we'd like to do. I believe we'll be able to get something done."

  6. It's Sports, Inc.  The new was capitalized since it was at the beginning of the sentence.

     

    Oh and this folks have a pretty good rep.  Much better then the popularity contest that is Madden.

    When I've subscribed to ESPN insiders in the past, I've always found the player evaluations by Scouts Inc., to be both in-depth and pretty accurate. I'm not saying they are right on the money for every single player, but those who have never seen their work, shouldn't just trash them.

  7. He wasn't fired, was he?  I thought Donahoe brought another guy in, but when he did, he game Jones a promotion or new title or something, which ultimately probably gave him more cash.  I thought Jones left on his own.

    Sometimes when you are stripped of the duties you previously held and "promoted" into a new position, you don't have a choice but to leave.

  8. The trainer/strength and conditioning coach has always been a behind the scenes kind of guy who you don't normally hear much about. Obviously because of his length of tenure here in Buffalo, it had become known what a great and respected job Rusty Jones had been doing with the Bills. I believe that when Brad Roll was brought on board last year by Mularkey, that the handwriting was on the wall for Jones. It is one of those good 'ole boy hirings where MM must feel that my guy can do the job just as well as the old guy. Only time will tell...

  9. In fact, count me on board with not signing roscoe unless he gets a new agent.  We have moulds/evans/reed/aiken...we dont NEED him.  Lets make Rosenhouse look like a POS, and hopefully lose some clients.

    I think you are getting a little carried away in saying we shouldn't sign Roscoe unless he dumps Rosenhaus. :D Camp doesn't start for two more days and Parrish is unsigned like a boatload of other drafted players. Hopefully he gets in camp by the end of the weekend.

  10. bump....any more suggestions...We are leaving tommorow morning :doh:

    Was just there last week on vacation. If you are driving, DON'T plan on arriving during rush hour and once you get to your destination, park your car and leave it there. If you are flying in, don't rent a car. Driving is crazy downtown and parking is EXPENSIVE. Take a shuttle from the airport and then walk or take a cab wherever you go..

     

    Besides that, great city!

  11. Why do some people that smoke, throw their butts out the car window instead of using the ashtray? It's not like the car doesn't already reek of smoke, so what's the big deal with using the ashtray.

  12. When you get out of the first round, there is only so much wiggle room for contract negotation. Contract length, what is bonus versus base contract $$$, incentives, etc...

     

    He'll sign the same contract now or in two weeks. There won't be that much different in the contract other than him missing two weeks of camp and falling behind to the point where he won't be a factor on opening day.

  13. I know this may belong in a different forum but...

     

    I thought I had read on this board that someone bought a huge block of tickets for the Saints game in New Orelans. 

     

    Just wondering if there are any of these tickets left.  I'm going to the game now.

     

    Thanks

    Everything you need to know about the game in NO including who to contact for possible tickets...

  14. Just below the poll on the ESPN website (vote Bills) there is an "Insider" article which apparently will go into detail about why people think JP will suck.  There will also be another about Carson Palmer going to the Pro Bowl.  Could someone be so kind as to post the JP chat wrap?

    391663[/snapback]

    In the teaser, it reads "see why Gary Horton thinks JP Losman is a huge question mark". Exactly where does it say that "JP will suck"? :angry:
