Amen.

I'm not a mind-reader, but the way Nate was treated last off-season was a slap in the face to him. As I've said before, if Nate had any interest in staying in Buffalo, he would've signed a contract last year. That he'd risk career-ending injury over signing a contract that would set him for life tells me he wants out. The position/outlook for this team has to weigh on his mind too. In coaching, the faces have changed and the losing schemes have stayed the same. 'Change of scenery' is what other people say. No matter how many Benjamins are on any contract proposal, I don't see a scenario where Nate signs. And this is the last time I'm going to respond to this crusade of yours.

Yep. Nate doesn't need to say Boo to our front office, and I don't think he will.

He's probably speaking as one of the asshats who said so many stupid things that they retire that screenname and take up another to start again. Memo: when people do that, they need to stop saying stupid things to be taken seriously! Nail --> Head, on the QB assessment.

Find a kicker who is perfect. Lindell has been an excellent kicker for the past two seasons. And yes, I will bring April into it. If he felt that Lindell wasn't good enough, he would've replaced him either of the past two offseasons. Sorry, but there's a reason why April has an office at OBD and you have a couch in front of your TeeVee. BTW -- Have you ever tried to kick a FG? That wasn't exactly a wild-miss kick; if it were, you might have a point. But even then, it would still be just one kick. As mad as you are at Lindell, I guarantee RL is 100 times madder at himself. The problem kickers have is that they get so few plays per game. Same reason why you don't cut a RB for one fumble when otherwise, they are put up strong numbers. Like I said before, people are upset, this is gut-level.

If you think the D and ST can show up like this EVERY game just to have a chance at winning, you need to get your head examined. Taglibue said it before this season that what Buffalo needs to do to get competitive is solve the QB problem. But what does he know? He's not wearing the rose-colored glasses that help us see all the problems on our team! Losman isn't the entire problem, saying that would be stupid. But at this point, in the words of Jim Mora, I'd be in favor of the O's execution.

That explains why everyone was shocked when he missed. Now you're dredging up the muck to explain that you knew it all along that "Lindell sucks." Bobby April must suck, too. This is gut-level reaction, and in reality it's moot. We needed a TD & 2-point conversion there to have any chance at OT once Manning got it back. Our O can't move the ball well; that is what lost the game.

Don't tell me what I know and don't know. Lindell had problems when he first arrived. And, like one of his magic tricks, when Dorenbos was released somehow Lindell instantly got better, regularly hitting even on 50-plus for the past two years. It was one fuggin' kick.

Every kick is a pressure kick. Your argument is crap.

Calling for his head? In Bizarro-World, maybe. Lindell is one solid guy that we do have. It was one kick.

I think McGee has been playing Harrison; Nate has Utect. Why? Who knows, but that's how our "Franchise Player" has been used all season.

C'mon, Bobby! Do a fake onside!

Man, the 69ers got PLAYED by Jennings' agent.

We are reaching new heights of futility. A gift from McGee that gets throw in the garbage by Fairchild.

Terrence!

Oh sh--! They put him in the overhead compartment and forgot to let him out!

If by that you mean slam the playbooks into the nearest garbage barrel and let JP just draw plays on the astroturf in the huddle.... well yeah, that might work better. Fairchild is not running this O well, at all. I won't be saddened when he gets tossed out of town for the second time.

Holy sh--. Almost one half of the game over in an hour.

Indy is doing now what our O had to do just to stay in it. Ball control, long drives. This game will be over, early.

Even with a great punt, we just lost a round in the field position battle.

I think A-Train is showing more in this game so far than Willis did in most of his.

From the point of view of John Q. Taxpayer.... How is any of that my problem, or my fault, to the tune that I have to contribute $16,000 per student who doesn't live w/in 75 miles of me? Cities don't have businesses to tax and rural areas do? How is tying property taxes to education funding "discriminatory"? It's not discrimanatory; that's just one of the bullsh-- words they say to justify dumping even more money when the more money they already have doesn't do anything.

Don't think it's quite right to be putting Whitner in that category. Being arrested for a low-level domestic disturbance (where even if it's simply raised voice, police pretty much have to make an arrest in the name of "zero-tolerence") is far and away from the 52 kinds of crazy the other two guys exhibited. Why should OSU's entire program be blamed for the actions of a few players? Sh--heads are all around in this world, and the number is growing rapidly. Donte's problem is, he found out who should not be his 'girlfriend' the hard way. Does Hallmark make a "Get the F--- Out of My Life, You Crazy C---" card?

Explain how doing what your first sentence suggests will help. In this state, one of the better education systems in the country, the budgets of the cities are (and I'm not drawing this number of of the air) over 5 times that of smaller towns, per student. Cities like Hartford, Bridgeport, etc. still rate poorly in test scores. There comes a point where continuing to pump money into them is a waste; and how is it fair to the kids in the smaller towns --- and no, not all of them affluent, especially here east of the river --- who get so much less and do so much better? No, it is not right to 'give up' on those kids, but keeping it structured like this is crap. I begin to side with those people who propose that education funding should come almost entirely from the city/town taxes rather than the larger state and federal pot, where it is disproportionately spent on schools where the problem is that the kids don't care, and no amount of money will make them do better. You see the stereotypical fat mothers on TV, screaming that the city doesn't spend enough and that's why their kids aren't doing well. That they need new computers and new books and this, that and the other, and you're like .... 'Well, what the f--- happened with all the money you already get?' Does the inner city have some kind of 10,000% markup on Roget's Thesauruses? P.S. I missed several pages, can someone tell me how an abortion thread got on the topic of school funding? Or should I not even ask?

So, tell us, how has this strategy worked for the Dey-twaa Lions? Three years, three picks in the high 1st.... And the only reason Matt Millen still has a job must be compromising photos of the entire Ford family.
