dont they have to announce if the game is a sellout 72 hours before kick off? in this case by 7 ish tonight?

Which just goes to prove what a DB Mike Schopp is. I have hard him say repeatedly that he dosnt see the Bills winning more than 6 Games. But CJ asks him, and all of a sudden we pull out 2 games.

Did Anyone else catch that interview? I don't know if its possible but it might be the first time I've actually heard a CJ spiller interview, cause he is one cool cat. Very funny and witty. And I LOVED it when Cj called out the Hosts and asked for a prediction on how many wins that they thought the Bills would have this season.

LET me expalin again. WHile coach SAL never said the word BUST, He DID SAY and I QUOTE "NEVER going to get any better than a low 60%Passer and that is Not very good." Now if you say someone is "not very good" and "never going to get any better" Is that or is that NOT saying the guys a bust? I would go with YES. Feel free to correct me.... I know you will.

He strongly implied that because of his "low completion rate" that he was NEVER going to be any good, which to me smells a lot like BUST. And for the poster who said i can't compare him to brady, Your right. I'd have to wait till he's played in the league for 10 + years. which is my point. He's only played 10 games to say ANYTHING definitve about him at this point is premature. Which is why I was so irritated with SAL yesterday. you can't know that he's NEVER going to get any better and the statement that low 60's is NOT very good, when clearly it is. THE HIGHEST I could fnid is peyton manning. at 65%. Does he need to win? YES. Does he need to throw touchdowns? YES. IS he as has been said repeatedly all over the airways an innaccurate passer? NO. He is AS accurate as several QB's who are first year Hall of famers. IF his current completion ratio holds up over his career. I am not saying that it will. I am not saying that it won't. I'm simply stating that its too early to tell.

Well in fairness he was on with Schoop so he might have been negatively influenced. I just found it shocking that he would say low 60's is NOT very good, considering that some QB's that have been very succesful have completion raitos that are comperable. I also find it maddening that when Brady dinks and dunks down the field, he is "taking what the defense gives him" when EJ does the EXACT same thing, he's "Captain checkdown". When Brady's recievers make him look good, no one says anything, but when EJ's do the EXACT same thing its just proof that the management team knows that EJ isn't very accurate.

Tom brady's carerr completion percentage 63.4..during the play offs 61.3, Yeah Low 60's is simply NOT good enough.

Was listening to GR on the irde home yesterday and "COACH" Sal stated emphatically and categorially that EJ was NEVER going to be any better that a LOW 60% completion percentage QB. It's over. Lets bring in TEBOW!

WEll considering that as of this morning the toronto fans are burning his CD's in Toronto... And the fans there do NOT want an NFL franchise...I think he;s done.

You know what I cant STAND is that we make these comparisons, about EJ's stats and other QB's he completes 60+ % of his passes, and everyone goes well he's not a pin point passer and he has WR's who make him look good... REALLY Why don't you get a clue and watch I DUNNO EVERY OTHER QB in the G)(&*(*& League? THEY ALL Make errant throws that their WR's snag that make them look good. NO ONE and I mean NO ONE throws a perfect pass every time. IF they did you and I could play wr. According to TG the offense took a step backwards last night? Really? OMG. Ej has show steady improvement in every game so Far... need to get it into endzone.. I agrree. bUt I mean dome on!!

This is what I have been telling people for a while now. People hear this about EJ and repeat it to sound like they know what they are talking about. I get this all the time. I work in the financial market, and I can't tell you how many times I hear people say things that are simply not true, because they have no concept of how our economy works. My favorite is that rich people are Hoarding money. Like they are scrooge McDuck. I think that Ej is probably the most scrutinized QB (ok maybe manziel is more) in the league. Every time the guy farts it’s like breaking (wind) News on ESPN. Enough... Look at his performance in the last game. I heard people B word that enough with the dump offs, I want to see a deep ball... ( except that he threw deep a couple of times). No matter what he does people will find a reason to kvetch. I don't want to hear about how he's having a bad practice either. You have to listen to what the coordinator has said about their approach, when he gets comfortable with a play, they move it to a list that they KNOW he can make and then they start throwing new plays at him. IN PRACTICE. Against a pretty good defense, so when you combine a play he doesn’t know real well against a defensive look he hasn’t seen before guess what, it’s going to go badly. You can't read too much into this. All I heard all week before the Carolina game from JOE B is how bad EJ looked in practice this week. Then he comes out and hits his first 7 passé and goes 9 of 13...or close to 70% completion rate. Let’s wait until we lose a few games because of EJ before we throw him under the bus

Nope never been banned, you continue to pull things out of thin air. And I am NO ONES apprentice much less yours since I've done nothing but repeated PWN you since I came on here.. you just don't know when to quit. You seem overly fascinated with the number of posts people have. I could care less, you either make good solid points, supported by logic and facts, or you don't. And for the record its not because you have a different opinion its that you can't back it up with facts. And the only facts which are shaky at best all point to the team going to Pegula. Ok not sure if you actually meant to say this, but here's a news flash for you, the team is GOING TO BE SOLD. My point was and is that it is NO more likely to be sold to an Owner who is going to MOVE the team. Again since you can't seem to follow a trail of bread crumbs, much less a logically constructed argument, There is NO proof that there are 8 bidders except the news reports, which have already been proved to be wrong once. we KNOW who 3 of the bidders are, and who 2 of the unknown 5 are ( most likely, Golisano and the property developer who wants to put the team in west Seneca) so IF we believe that there are 8 bidders, and we know that of them 5 are pretty much known to us, and 4 of them have stated unequivocally that they intend on keeping the team here. and the one that acted sketchy about it has been told that the only way there new bid will be accepted is if they make assurances that the team will remain here. I am not going to get spooked that maybe one of the three that are left have intentions to move the team, it’s pretty clear it’s not what the Trust wants, the League wants or what we want. If you’re going to believe the media reports you have to believe all of them or NONE of them. you can't cherry pick the stories that support your point of view while ignoring the ones that don't. Every media report has said and continues to say that Pegula is the front runner. Until I hear differently, then I am not worried. You asked for evidence. Pegula has repeatedly been shown to be the front runner (will never move the team) Golisano/trump/developer ( if he's even in the mix) have all said that intend to keep team here. BON Jovi has said he will keep team here, (I don't believe him and neither does the trust) IF the TRUST has asked BON JOVI for ASSURANCES that He has no intention of moving team, then it is illogical to assume that they will not demand the same Assurances from whomever else will attempt to Buy the team. All the evidence that we have is that the team is going to go to an Owner with a commitment to WNY. The league and the TRUST KNOW that it will be an unmitgated PR NIGHTMARE if team is sold to someone who trys to move it and THe league will most likely demand a commitment to build new stadium in region as commitment to area and woudl vote to block any attempt to move the team. I'll conced that the seoncdhalf of point six is speculation on my part, BUT it's logical speculation.

Thanks well If i could find ONE spelling that has been deemed correct for the other groups, I'd use them. but I've seen 12 differnt spellings for some of them al-queda is the worst.

Yeah the Nazi's, Alqueda, ISUS, BOKA HAREM, POL POT, Hammas, etc, all AMATEURS, when compared to those guys.

wow you are argumentative aren't you. OK I'll type slowly so you don't have to read fast and miss anything. #1 the OP, that the team is more vulnerable to being sold to someone who will move it. ( it is not), and there is 0 evidence to support that claim, I've already listed the reasons why, and I am not going to rehash them here. AS far as being unpopular I think that there are more people here that think that the team is safe, than there are fear mongering Trolls that insist that every development somehow has some dark sinister undertones that means that the sky is falling. or that the team is leaving. #2 I don't usually have time to post HERE. I didn't say i didn't READ posts, and besides how hard can it be, you've managed to rack up over 400 posts.

First oooohhhh 400 posts, again, you miss the point...I was trying to make in that you sounded like a sock puppet supporting the position that someone else was making which was basically untenable, unsupportable, and unpopular. Not to mention with no basis in fact. and number of posts has nothing to do with it. I've been a bills fan for 32 years. I just dont often have time to post. in fact I shouldn't be posting now. But the level of crazy thats been spewing here prompted me to.

Not sure I get the reference? to be clear a "sock puppet" is when someone creates a dummy account (under a different email/name) specifically to back himself up in an argument on the interwebs when he is clearly outnumbered because he is either a) ignorant b) a fool or c) a troll. Or in this case most likely, an ingnorant, foolish Troll. A strawman is when someone creates a "logical argument for or against a point that has no basis in FACT, for the express purpose of defeating that argument" AS in we have 5 new buyers. (not knowing who they are and what thier intentions are) you automatically assume that all 5 of them are interested in moving the team. (straw man argument) I have no idea what a scarecrow is. other than the classic Oz character and those figures employed in cornfields by farmers. I did no such thing (in reference to being a strawman argument). I said that at least 2 of the Mystery Bidders are easily identifiable, ie Golisano and the develeoper. Both have expressed intrest in bidding, and since the identity and intentions of the other three buyers are uknown it is both unreasonable and illogical to assume that they would ALL wish to move the Bills. And given the amount of strong negative pressure that JBJ and his group have recieved from both the community and the trust, (admittedly from reports from the media) it is unlikely that any of these biders would have immediate intentions of moving the team. And to clearer when i said," I sense a sock puppet" it was an accusation, not an argument. they are both long multi-sylable words that start with the letter "a" so I can see where you might get confused. I hope that clears up the confusion.

Thanks.... I usually only lurk. But this stuff is getting crazy. I sense a sock puppet!

OMG would you listen to yourselves?? THE SKY IS FALLING THE SKY IS FALLING.. "when panic or in doubt, run in circles scream and shout!!!" This just in: The retractable roof on the new stadium is collapsing!! 100's hurt... its true I heard it froma guy on the internets.... People calm down. why are you not thinking that there are 5 more guys who love th BIlls and want to keep them here? You don't know who they are, what thier intentions are, but you assume that they all want to move them. PUHLEEASE. ( news flash probably ONE of them is Golisano who has stated that he wantsto keep them here, and at least one other is probably the dude that wants to build a stadium in west seneca) You believed them when they said there were 3 and NOW you are all Butt hurt that there are 8, COMPLETELY FORGETTING THAT THE INFO ABOUT 3 bidders was WRONG! BUT NOW you believe them? NOW the information is accurate? Why because "Teddy Graham crackers and milk" reported it in the buffalo snooze? I wouldn't trust that RAG for the time in the shadow of Big Ben. ( the clock in London not the qb in Pittsburgh) (But I saw you buy the paper at wegmans the other day! YES you did, cause I needed it to light my BBQ with. which is the only use that I can think of for that archaic piece of shi .... errrrr, media, since I aint currently training a puppy, and I don't own a bird.") Relax. have a beer or 5. The Team isn't going anywhere.

I heard this and I KNEW that schopp was just going to cut him off. To me its not about him knowing nothing about sports, its just that he refuses to listen to critisicm from ANYONE. I hardly ever listen to the two of them and what I was most shocked by was Bulldog calling him on his crap al ittle bit. I know thats why he is parteneerd with shcopp because howard and jeremy would never lets his ridiculous statements stand. Not huge fan of jeremy and Howard but I like them better than Schopp and the lapdog. Bulldog better watch his step... keep having your own opinions and schopp will show him the door.
