"The Clarence Information Center is operated by the Niagara Tourism and Convention Corporation. That's why there's no Buffalo stuff." Is this supposed to be a common sense answer to why there is no Buffalo stuff to be found at the Clarence tourist center? This is a prime example of why WNY can't get out of it's own way. Everybody (Mayor, Common Council, labor unions) is looking only to get their little piece of the pie NOW and nobody has the big picture in mind. Fine, WNY, everybody go after your little scraps of a rapidly shrinking pie. The ship is going down and unfortunately the only thing that will wake people up to take action is when the Bills need to leave town. Then there will be action but it will be too late! If the Bills leave, I will no longer have any emotional connection to WNY and will have to resign myself to being a Southerner. Well, at least I'll have the weather to enjoy if not Bills football.

Calling Denney a bust at this stage is pure hysteria. Do you work for the media?

Productive DE's are NOT easy to come by. Good move TD.

What kind of a world is it where we hang on the words of a guy like Jeff Morrison? Whew.

Why are people so quick to see conspiracy or lack of integrity out of this front office? We take the word of disgruntled players that just got cut over our brain trust. ??? Blind loyalty is dangerous, but so also is ASSuming. You know what happens when you ASSume?

Ditto. As far as I knew, Sunday Ticket was only available on DirecTV. That is just too valuable - why chance it?

Couch IS available, Packers cut him because he was unproductive. His career is slipping fast.

An interesting theory to say that GW was brought in as a transitional guy while TD cleaned up Butler's cap mistakes. But in order for that to occur, RW would have to have been on board with that plan also. That would have required RW to buy into TD's 3-5 year plan, which is a tough sell if you are sitting across from RW interviewing for the GM job. I can hear it now, "Well, Mr. Wilson, actually your team sucks and the only way to clean up this cap mess is to bag it for 3-5 years while we start making the cap numbers work. We'll keep telling the fans we are up-and comers, keep our no-name head coach as long as the fans will let us, and then we'll hire another no-name until we get the cap fully under control. Down the road we can hire a name coach when we are ready to win." "What do you say Ralphie boy, do I get the job?" If RW bought into that one, he obviously must be a big believer in cryogenics.

I'd rather average 6 yards a return than lose Nate to an injury early in the year. It is definitely living on the edge.

Now Cincy can have him. Remember how much we were stressed out when he was making his decision?

I think the Billls treated him poorly, after all of the wonderful things he has done for this franchise. He's lucky he didn't get released outright. Stop whining Travis and welcome to the real world.

I can't believe Pucillo made the squad. Hopefully TD is scanning the wire and making calls now.

I'll be arriving in my theater room at 10 AM (CST) to listen to the pregame show via NFL Field Pass. Oh, you're talking about arriving in WNY? Sorry about that.

Bills win 24-20

OK, so WHY would the Bills play possum with Gildon? Just to fake you out? Maybe hide him on the roster and sneak him onto the field on Sunday, hoping nobody notices? No, they needed to see if he's got anything left in the tank. He obviously (to continue the analogy) was running on fumes and didn't impress. Such is life sometimes.

If you had 2 marquee running backs and 1 decent QB, plus an OL that can run block but has trouble pass blocking, what would you do offensively? Our identity will be as a running team but opponents will defense us that way by putting 9 men in the box. We will have to take some shots downfield to loosen up the D. Week 1: Bills win 24-20

Rayzer I hope that's not you on your avatar. It's downright scary.

njsue could not have thought that. They can't show all the 1:00 games at once!?! Or can they? Hmmmmm...

Sweet Lord. If the boo birds come out, I will be embarrassed for our fans. That would be one sad-ass display.

Before I respond, I need to make sure that this is the OFFICIAL Jacksonville thread and not one of those cheap imitations...

They looked OK. 1st team O looked good & ready for Sunday. I thought Mike Williams looked solid.

The entire football season is shorts weather in TX. I like it. I like it a lot.

Why would I not want Flutie back? That must be a rhetorical question. No arm. Locker room cancer. No character. No deep ball. Not a team player. Why would I not want Flutie back? This cannot be a serious question.

I also have been saying McGahee is like molasses. Didn't see the game last night yet, but he's looked that way so far. Just no burst yet.

Green Bay has 1 TD in preseason also. Don't worry, it's not real football yet.
