What’s Twitter? Just kidding, I’ve heard of it, but I’ve never even looked at it before. So if I know about this obviously it’s made it to real life.

Just wanted to stop by and say I couldn’t agree more. Cole really let me down with this one. Just completely taking the best chance the Bills and their fans have had in so many years to do/experience something special and completely making it about himself. Like you said, you don’t want the shot, fine. But to do this? To add controversy, to completely tear a hole in the fabric of what’s been worked on and worked toward for so many years building a winning culture, and he singlehandedly creates a divide between players and fans? Why? It’s the absolute height of arrogance, not only to not get the shot but to take something special and making it your personal bumper sticker/soapbox moment. Totally disgusted. All I’m imagining is the Bills finally winning the super bowl, and players and fans are celebrating something we’ve all wanted for so long. Someone gets up to say we’re going to Disneyland and instead starts an anti vax rant. Awesome. Thanks Cole, it’s not like I haven’t waited over 30 years for this, go ahead make it about you. Cool.

I mean, they were proven wrong but yeah, to most “analysts” he was at the time.

Surprised Stevenson didn’t make the list.

Wow you’re really trying to keep this thread reigned in. This JA hurdle vs. team hurdle really seems to be a hard sticking point for you. Any chance you’ll actually provide an opinion or are you just here to police others on theirs?

Vikings fans won’t let it go either. Every Diggs article has the comment section full of sour grapes Vikings fans. I don’t get why they’re so upset, they got Jefferson out of the deal. Seems to me we both won in the deal, not sure why they won’t let this go.

Not NFL, but I’ll probably go to a handful of Amerks games.

You sure you read my post? I was genuinely interested in how hot the they guy I was quoting found Wildgoose. Nah, not really, but it did find the premise very funny that if you don’t know anything about the person, to then immediately jump to how attractive you find them, “I don’t know who this Freud guy is, how does he look in skinny jeans?” I stand by my observation. It wasn’t as much of a shaming exercise as you took it, but it does seem pretty childish. You disagree I guess, but before even opening the thread I knew I’d find an alarming number of adolescent responses from anonymous grown men frivolously throwing around how attractive they found her while hiding their beer bellies safely behind the keyboard. Just kind’ve does nothing for the image most people have of American football fans in general. Not a look I’m particularly proud of, but not so much for the sexism aspect, more for the un-evolved beer swilling jock vibes it gives off.

I’m sure you didn’t know everything about all of the players we drafted this year. Instead of looking them up and finding out more information did you just grade them 1-10 on the hotness scale? Not judging, but following your logic that’s a perfectly reasonable thing to do if you don’t know anything about them. Where did Wildgoose rank?

I mean, as much as anything else does it in the offseason. My question to you is why even open it and then go as far as to post in it if you don’t find it interesting? When you’re at a gathering or party do you find every conversation intriguing? If you don’t do you join the conversation just to tell them you don’t find it interesting? My guess is you don’t, which says to me you’d only do this sort of thing anonymously, which speaks very highly to your character. You could always start your own post/conversation. But something tells me you wouldn’t do that either, which also speaks to your character. See: character issues. The Bills probably wouldn’t take you within the first 5 rounds.

What about Antonio Williams? He flashed pretty hard in that Dolphins game. Apparently he’s working very hard to make the most of his opportunities. Was Wade even active that game? I feel like that’s a big indicator on how they’ve feel about Wade vs. Williams.

I’m actually happy with our game. I like starting the season at 1pm. Not to mention I bought tickets and can’t wait. That wouldn’t have been able to happen if we traveled to Tampa on a Thursday. As for the Cowboys, it’s about time people realize they’re not going anywhere. They can be absolutely terrible and they’ll still be hyped and talked about every week. They’re a big name, like it or not, they’ll always be a big name. The NFL loves casual fans and they will always try to find ways to get them to tune in.

Wow. Guy puts in some serious work in the offseason and people are upset? He may never be the guy that everyone wants, but he’s trying his best to be the best he can be. It’s kinda gross seeing grown men bash a 20 something year old kid for trying to do the best he can for his/their team. Would you rather he just quits and listens to you guys and decides he’s not good enough? Where does that leave us for next year? Some folks here have a lot of growing up to do.

You heard it here first, football games are hard. Glad we have a good team that should make every game at least interesting.

Seems to me the Eagles tried playing hardball, saying they were fine with keeping him, etc. to get a better pick from the Bills. Bills got sick sick of waiting around and bidding against themselves and the Eagles were stick holding the 8.5 million dollar bag. Now they’ll get nothing. Problem is do the Bills even have enough to pay him if he is released? He’ll probably get a few looks. Though the Bills have to be pretty high on his list as I don’t see many multi year deals and at least with Allen he knows he’ll get his looks and could pad those stats for the next contract.

Count me down as someone who isn’t affected whatsoever by players choosing different numbers than what was deemed appropriate traditionally. It’s on a whole new level of caring that I hope to never reach.

You thumbs downin’ me, bro?! Imagine my surprise to wake up to a downed thumb on my post, only to find out it’s you? Imagine that for a second. Seriously, take a step back, close your eyes and imagine how that must have felt for me. Unbelievable. I need some time to unpack this. You owe me pal. And I’m talking grandiose gesture, none of that lame Valentine’s Day of 2013 nonsense.

So teams got better after the draft and free agency? Cool. Guess we’ll see what’s what on the field.

That’s the one. Kid made varsity as a freshman for the Eden Hall warriors.

Definitely has to be “wrong Josh” but I came around very early into his rookie year.

Kids from Edina Minnesota, same as Adam Banks. That’s gotta be good news!

Kinda ripped off Teef’s comedy but okay Amy Schumer.

There’s no explanation needed. Beane said he was drafting for the future. Hughes is over the hill, and Addison is just okay. Both are young and versatile. How is there still questions?

Dude’s 6’9. He should’ve chokeslammed a buddy through the table Undertaker style.

I’d do it before the draft too. In hopes that these morons will make the right choice and get him some talent.
