Dolphins expected to cut Tannehill
gobills1212 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Poor TT. That was my 1st thgt as well. Kind of a one eye man is king in the land of the blind type situation BUT if the name of the game is to start ya take it where you can get it. Hed full well know the deal by taking that on. -
David Culley (former Bills QB coach) gone- to Ravens
gobills1212 replied to One Buffalo's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Couldnt the Jets do the same as they are starting over? Itd be cool, but its not like this is the 1st time one of his students has a qb coach spot open and as he is already working w a new crop this year its gotta be he digs the teaching aspect. I have no insight, but id venture to guess he does well monetarily and would prefer to be a young qb guru than linked to 1 guy and team. Shouldnt have been wrong, i wouldnt have had to keep reading the thread! -

Jim Kelly wants to sit down with Josh Allen...

Uuhhh... you do know most humans have on avg 23 different conversations a day right? And thats just the avg taking into account some people are in exhile or solitary and some are telemarketers. Id venture to guess professional football players often have conversations about... yep, you guessed it - football!! -

This Is Why Spending Big $ For A RB Is Not Wise:
gobills1212 replied to YodaMan79's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
People like signing players theyve heard of. Double down with a big name giving buffalo some attention and notariaty and bingo - a popluar move. Many fans know or think better, but casual fans eat that up. -
Bills have released Kelvin Benjamin and Andre Holmes
gobills1212 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I for one am just impressed and wld like to thank the person who actly used the search function and found the proper thread for this so we all have the context of the convo. Most wld just simply make a new thread. Not implying im the thread police or anything, but i just wanted to say its nice to see a message board function as intended:) -
Odd that when jackson was interviewed yesterday about working with palmer murph asked if hed met josh. He said josh had arrived right before he left for the sr bowl but was looking forward to getting w him when he got back BUT he gave him a little bit of advice before he left. Dont get me wrong, i dont really care where JA is, but something regarding this timeline is a bit whack

Problems with making PI reviewable...
gobills1212 replied to LabattBlue's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Ugh Nothing will ever make anyone happy. Its why the goal seems to be finding the lesser of evils rather than everything right. I have no idea what the answer is, but every one ive heard so far has a blatant contradiction that will end the same way. It will be interesting at the very least but sometimes it just is what it is and to a degree what goes around comes around. The strongest i felt about penalties this yr was the HOU game. It got to the point I didnt care who it was against, just the fact it was called was annoying. Its a tight rope down a slippery slope and everyone has a solution. Personally ive yet to hear one that sounds like it would make things better. -
This is the case for many athletes, BUT it takes away the fun as well as the opportunity for an inscription and or personalization. That said, Reed usually just does the ol'HOF inscription at stuff like this

Thanks bud! In case anyone is interested in the originals i keep a folder for reference as there isnt much of a definitive guide for Bills jerseys on the internet. This at least acts as a guide for collectors trying to learn or figure out whats what and has some of my favorites like a handful of my kellys, reich, norwood etc. http://imgur.com/gallery/ZmJMlN7 http://imgur.com/gallery/roFFL OP, make sure ya show off the goods once you are all done!!! Have fun!!

As a huge Bills jersey collector (mostly game worn but due to work I have to pay attn to replica remakes) I'd just advise that during Reeds time with the Bills they wore Champion, Logo Athletic, and Wilson- all of which were screen printed. Mitchell Ness makes replicas, one just a general Bills blue jersey with incorrect font and the other is a more expensive super bowl 25 remake (still not the 'champion font ' but closer.) Both of these have vinyl numbers to emulate the screen printing of the era. Fwiw, M&N kinda crapped the bed once they were bought by Reebok as the original details that made them popluar were ignored. Anything else out there will be a knockoff. IMO, the bootleg jerseys emulating the 80s and 90s look more like pullover baseball jerseys bc they dont have a template to copy like they do the current Nikes. THESE will all be sewn letters. You can prob make it look decent in a frame but finding one without an obnoxiously large name plate is a bit tough. If local, id just do one of the guys on CL or FBM for $40 or so. If you wash em once they fall apart and look super ratty but for signing its a moot point. Personally, if i was you and i wasnt going to spend 125 or 250 on the mitchell ness, id go to ebay and try and find one of the screen printed throwbacks reebok made before they lost their lisence. They just look sssssooooo much better than a sewn knockoff with ribbons for the sleeve stripes. Maybe you can even find a vintage authentic in good shape as jerseys are cheaper this time of year. Good luck!! Id throw a $40 offer at this person. Vintage dead stock (still has tags, new and unworn) thats lisenced. Just steam it to get it wrinkle free and you are golden. This looks SSSOOO much better than knockoffs IMO, even if it is a replica. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Puma-NFL-Jersey-Buffalo-Bills-Andre-Reed-83-hof-XL-new-with-tags-screen-print/392211928232?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160908105057%26meid%3Dd90c59d1a8364b21a951949850e7f44f%26pid%3D100675%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D15%26sd%3D392211928232%26itm%3D392211928232&_trksid=p2481888.c100675.m4236&_trkparms=pageci%3A644a9227-1e7b-11e9-af61-74dbd1806c16|parentrq%3A7705c0fa1680ab1d0a1a0967ffffb6e7|iid%3A1 Even cheaper, this person replaced lee evans dead stock jerseys with reed name plates. Didnt wear the throwback, but its unique and again, the lisenced look is better than 3 inch tall letters on knockoffs https://www.ebay.com/itm/Reebok-NFL-Jersey-Buffalo-Bills-Andre-Reed-White-sz-XL/361714325133?hash=item5437da968d:g:GHYAAOSwGtRXzKz9 After looking, ebay offers real deal authentic as close as you can get to what he wore onfield for around $300, legit mitchell ness $75-$100, or things like the above. Again, an easy tell is if its sewn - its fake.

The NE post on here if you have good things to say thread
gobills1212 replied to Bfanlc's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
In the future, simply asking for attention might serve you better.... As such, i doubt deep down people would really even disagree with this but you act as if its some sort of revelation or hot take that youll be flamed for. Weve lived it since 2001 and are quite familiar....thus im not sure why you think this is cute or coy. It just kinda comes off as lame trolling imo - which is why next time you shld shld just spare us and simply ask for attention. I wouldnt mind knowing this is the alternative... -

Does this actually need to exist in thought or actuality? This post better stay blank.... Or be full of Brady balding jokes. Either is fine -
How Does LA Match Up Against New England?

IMO, the thing to watch is does BB make Goff look like a youngin? As has been pointed out time and time again, he makes young qbs look silly. Has Goff taken a step to experienced vet? We shall see -

Grab and Go: How Sticky Gloves Have Changed Football
gobills1212 replied to notwoz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
With respect to OP and author- this is kinda DUH. When 35 yr old gym class heroes like myself are making full speed backhanded 1 handed catches during flag football... its obviously the gloves. If you have big enough hands and can get a palm on it, youre golden. Sometimes even fingers. Its fun for sure, but it lets avg joes make sick catches. -
As good as hes looked, a lot can happen between now and then. Until the next couple years play out and more seasons unfold where he looks like a 200 ml man its all speculation and imo kinda silly so early. Before someone comes along and argues hes great etc, (fwiw i dig the kid and badly wanted him, was bummed our pick landed him, and later rationalized the drafting of Allen that he is that years 'mahomes' - big arm/needs polish) this is SUCH a 'what have you done for me lately' league week to week let alone season to season....so ya just never know.
