Jenkins In - Bunkley Out in Philly The Iggles, who seem to have no salary cap, btw, have added Cullen Jenkins and cut former 1st round pick DT Brodrick Bunkley. The Bills drafted 'lil Dante 8th overall in 2006, while Bunkley went to Philly at the 14th spot. IIRC, it came out later that the Bills had Bunkley second on their board behind Whitner. Of course, me you and the rest of Bills' nation was screaming for them to take Haloti Ngata, who went to the Ravens with pick number 12. So, in essence, the team had two under-performers slotted higher than a perennial All-Pro and potential future HOFer. At least they only had to say goodbye to one of them this week.

It's it just me or does it seem that 90% of the bigger name Free Agents have all signed in the AFC East this week? I'm okay with the Bills' plan and really do think the draft and their couple of FA signings have improved the team, but, man, it sure would be nice to see guys signing in the NFC West for a change.

Isn't the word that the Bills will sign Channing Crowder? If so, it looks like it's just ILB musical chairs.

Scott, By creating the Bills and Sabre sites you have done an amazing job of giving the fans of Buffalo a place to grow the sphere of "family" that bonds us all who love the Bills and Sabres. I hope the love from your online family brings you strength and peace as you deal with the passing of your mom. May she RIP.

Am I missing something? The Twitter feed says that the "show will go on" and that "big announcement coming." Sounds to me like they are going to resurface on another station - hopefully one with a better signal.

It references a classic Bill, but a few years ago someone here called a former two-time Bills' receiver Disappear-less Price.

Thanks. Makes me sad that we've lost Dennis R.I.P.

Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to lay to rest a true friend of the community who was taken from us suddenly at the tender age of 42. Mr. Wilson Farms was born in 1969, the year of Woodstock and moon landings. Preceding him were a slew of corner stores that had been erected in the postwar years in almost every neighborhood in Niagara Falls. These stores bore the names of immigrants who had come to America possessing little more than the current New York State lottery catchphrase -- a dollar and a dream. Eulogy for Wilson Farms

Great post, great team, great times. Funny to see a guy named Edwards wearing number 80 - Lofton was just on the horizon. Does anyone have the clip of him explaining how he "played" some younger receivers into eating a big buffet breakfast before they ran for the Bills at the try-out? It's a classic story of a vet's vet working the system to his advantage.

I don't know if you're on to Ralph's thinking or not, but it is a straw I'll happily grasp at. Your scenario works for everyone: Ralph's family, Jimbo and Co and the fans of Buffalo. From your mouth to God's ear.

When Jeff Quinn took over he was blindsided by Maynard's decision to bolt the program. The kid went to Cal with no guarantee of starting and beat out 5 other hopefuls to win the starting gig. Too bad he didn't stay at UB, I think he would have shined in Quinn's offense. Cal Picks Maynard

:lol:

Didn't hear about the Fitzcamp. Great news and thanks for the update.

Many NFL teams are holding player-organized workouts during the lockout. Veteran QBs and RBs seem to be the ones getting their teams together and ready in lieu of formal mini-camps and workouts illegal while the labor dispute lingers. Shouldn't Fitzpatrick - fresh off of the vote of confidence the team gave him by not drafting a QB last week - be organizing the Bills? Also, if such workouts were conducted could the Bills draftees take part and could a veteran "loan" then a copy of the playbook? NFL Vets leading Workouts

A million thumbs up on the Chaplin speech! Just want to say how much I've enjoyed just about every vid posted (save Fairy Boy, that is). I can't imagine the regulars on a *Patsie or Fish head board having such eclectic and well-received tastes - it sure is nice being from God's country, isn't it?

Amazing - wow!

Nice - really enjoyed this one. Thanks!

I'll kick it off: Here's Tom Green (who was in Canada's answer to the Beastie Boys back in the day - called Organized Rhyme) perfectly setting up Xzibit on a live podcast show. Love the look on Xzibit's face the moment he realizes that what he thinks is going to be a nightmare with a goofy white guy that can't rap is suddenly a gauntlet that's been thrown down at his feet. Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ebi-_o_3dgs

^^^^^ Second that!

Don't have much to say about Dante - what's left to say, really, except "Goodbye?" - but did want to say that I've been listening to the George Harrison "All Things Must Pass" CD recently and I love your screen name.

Here's a mock for the just completed draft that was done back in January. Most of the picks seem crazy when looked at in hindsight. Already there are 2012 mocks out - other than a reason to waste printer's ink, what's the point? The good news is that the Bills ended up with 2 first round picks as they were predicted here: Early 2011 Mock
