My Take On The Upcoming Draft
gobills1212 replied to Peace Frog's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You would lol. As far as OPs thought, if the world is burning just bust out the fire starter and have at it huh? -
There are so many issues with this I dont even know where to start... so I wont get specific, but just as a generality of you live you life like this with 'assumed absolutes' you are really missing out. Judging a book by its cover is one thing, and then doubling down and living life by these assumptions is sad. Once in a while you might be right, but as a whole I encourage you to open up a bit to possibilities. There is sssooo much out there it's a shame to still see this type of thinking.

We can do better. TV #s OPM the sleeves would help;)

6 QB's off the board by pick 16
gobills1212 replied to RPbillsfan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It may be ticky tacky but I'm not sure Jackson has the most upside. Isnt that literally the allure of Allen? -
The giants message board is kind of amusing. Although they might be a little behind in saying they know the Bill's want Allen, they seem to think trading a bounty for Allen would be dumb and they are all over it. I'm indifferent on Allen but they seem to love Darnold (and rightfully so) and seem to bite hook line and sinker the gmen take him at 2 if he is there. They very well may of course but there's smoke everywhere so who even k owes who loves who.

I totally get this line of thinking and dont disagree... but I also think there is a flip side with a lot of coin at stake. Obv this isnt as clear cut as luck, but I dont remember if the colts said weeks before they were going w luck or if he worked out for other teams. Darnold does not = luck, but might be the closest thing to this years version. I wonder if say Miami asks for a work out... what is his response?

Two Weeks Out, What do you Currently want to happen?
gobills1212 replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Virgil McBeane is the name, and I served on the Buf Bills train 'Till Pegula's cavalry came and tore up the roster again In the winter of 2018, we were hungry, just hardly could wait. By April the 26th, Dallas had fell, it's a time I remember, oh so well The night they brought ol Darnold down, and the bells were ringing The night they brought old Darnold down, and the people were singin' they went Na na na na na na na na, na na na na hey ho let's go buffalo... -

Will the 2018 Bills be better then the 2017 Bills???

There will always be a few crazies. I dont think that'd be indicative of the fan base as a whole -

Do you not? Seriously, though... there are some straight up nut balls on here, but that isnt indicative of the fan base as a whole - nor should it be. The internet is a weird place. For some people, THIS is essentially their social interaction. We remember the crazy posts because they are off the wall and some even poorly informed BUT message boards attract that. They also attract some excellent conversation and debates. I dog the folks who dont want to trade up, or even worse trade back - but at the very least I respect them in the sense MOST of them have reasoning for feeling or thinking that way EVEN if it's only sound and sensible to them and are able to convey it in a way that can be considered sensible. If you are out and about and engage in conversation of course you will find some stinkers... but for the most part I find Buffalo sports fans to be very passionate and from that comes intelligent conversation. Disagreements dont have to be solved, and disagreements dont always equal stupidity... just differing POV. So yes, as a whole I'd argue Buffalo sports fans are mostly passionate and well informed. Trading up or standing pat is small picture stuff in the big picture anyway. Right now its front and center, but just because a few idiots on here tend to be persistent isnt the full picture. There aren't a ton of sports cities that have all day sports programming on the radio for example. That isnt the case of no one pays attention and no one cares. There is a market for it, and it isnt because everyone is dumb and needs to be informed.... This board is sssssooooooo much better and sssooo much more utilized and traveled than most of the opponents teams sites. By and large it's because people as fans care, want to be involved, and maybe they even learn something. Naturally there will be something positive to come from it. Again, the stupid posts stick out but even those eventually turn into a decent thought provoking conversation or at least get pretty funny before they die their natural death. That isnt the case in other places and it's just kinda sad. Like when the Bills traded Dareus. Jags fans seriously were posting and agreeing with statements like ' who cares if he is expensive, it's only the salary cap'. Seriously? Even if someone said that here, there wouldn't be pages of people agreeing with it... -

Who knows... IF they land one of the big 4 I dont think they need to be. As I mentioned in another thread, one of the circumstances of this being a unique year is that the fan base seems more willing to provide a 'pass' in the name of future success and progress. Other things include a strong qb draft class, a ton of ammo, and dead cap/future cap room. If it is a step back to make a step forward - Bills fans seem smart enough to realize and accept this (in general of course) and can deal with a year of learning with out being idiots and calling for heads to roll. Maybe last year helped prepare them to a degree and who knows - maybe they can have their cake and eat it too again this year. But, if a step back is necessary for future winning I'd hope last year gave this duo a bit more rope. Years from now who knows what they do with said rope but in the mean time last year seems to have served them well into fans buying in and understanding they are trying to build a winner which sometimes means addition by subtraction. -

No More Color Rush on TNF?
gobills1212 replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Sorry, didnt see that and got excited. With so much lead time and development time put into things like this I doubt they could make them just go away with a snap of the fingers. Nike also has a say to a degree as the amount of product that is manufactured etc that it would need time to be brought back down. Buffalo, along with a few other markets have had these jerseys pushed, promoted, and marketed very heavily. Wash, Cinn, and a few others dont even bother with a 'line' devoted to it and it's difficult to find them at retail after the 1st mandatory wave. The Bills have embraced it as last years RED sideline gear was held back until color rush time before it was put out as an alt option to blue and white primary colored gear. -

gobills1212 replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'd imagine we get at least one more year out of them as the Titans unveiled new ones last week UNLESS they are just turned into alts -
Come back inside and let your brain thaw and try this again...
