Wasn't there when I read the first article. Perhaps learning how to read the time on a blog before bitching about what's there would be in order.
The training camp blog on the News site was posted at 2:22pm, your post 4:37pm. It seems it was there when you posted yours.

Take a look at this article: Buffalo Bills Practice Report
From it I learned:
Hariston is still on the PUP list but rehabbing with the team on the sidelines
Keith Pough left practice with an injury but walked off on his own power
Kyle Williams and Chandler were held out of full-team work
Manuel connected on a bomb to Da'Rick Rogers (would love to know more about Rogers and the reps he's getting)
There were fights at practice today including our rookie WR Woods
Colin Brown seems to be leading contender for the LG position at this time (would love to know more though)
Troupe struggled and was flagged twice
Kicking competition heating up (would love to know Marrone's thoughts on carrying 2 kickers. God I hope not)
Fred Jackson looked strong showing no signs of last years injury
Kolb had a bad day but played against the 1st team defense
I learned all that in a nice concise article written by a Patriots reporter.
Meanwhile, the local gang is holed up in the bushes outside Mario Williams' house.
Do you mean like this??? http://blogs.buffalonews.com/press-coverage/2013/07/day-3-run-game-emphasized-in-bills-first-practice-with-pads.html
Seems like a damned complete report to me. Perhaps a quick look at the news website before bitching about what's not there would be in order.

The best/worst part about this is that it was the same raft he was arrested for "de-felating" (as the article says) in the past. It was a neighbor's raft. After he had sex with the raft, the neighbors KEPT the raft so this guy could get out and have reunion sex with it.

Wow! She made it move a little.
Ok, we can have a cheerleader thread as well.

I'm proposing TBD be limited to six threads only:
One each about:
- Coaches
- Offense
- Defense
- The rest of the league
- Patriots*
- People Hating WGR
- Coaches
-
I understand the need for limiting the number of threads on a topic, but there are times someone has a unique insight related to the Byrd matter and it has the potential to sprout its own conversation which is less about Byrd and more about something related; like the thread about teams refusing to play players signed by Parker- a thread that has the potential of a discussion of the roles of agents in team's plans. Should that be buried in a 53 page thread about Jarius Byrd?
The idea of having to pick through 53 pages of posts to find those unique insights is rather frustrating.
Now that I have said "Byrd" I expect this thread to me merged.

Why isn't WGR breaking into regular programming and covering this wall-to-wall. They hate the Bills!!! Damn them!
...oops sorry, wrong thread.
-
I thought WGR was the home of the Bills. I live out of town and tried to listen this morning via the Internet so that I could catch up on the Nix/Whaley situation, and all they want to talk about is hockey! Boy Howard Simon has really fallen since the days of Fan tv. Is there another station that covers the Bills?
You've got to be kidding me! They talked about this non stop yesterday from 3-9 and then talked about it this morning 80% of the time while mixing in the EPIC collapse of the Leafs last night, which is more current news than a noon announcement the day before about Nix (one which we all know was coming).
Sorry the 10 minutes you decided to listed didn't contain the conversation you wanted to hear.
-
Meyer came across as a real jerk.
He was really adament about the fact that he wanted no part of Eason and that the GM basically told him, "opinion noted, now shut up and coach whoever we pick"

AGREE!! Waayy too much on Elway. 1983 was the best quarterback draft ever and they turned into The John Elway Show in my opinion. Many fans, and some players in Denver couldn't stand Elway with his arrogance his first several years there. Kelly & the Bills changed the face of NFL offense w/ the K-gun, fast-paced play. Nothing about that. Go Bills.
Maybe you can make a movie about the quarterbacks of the 1983 draft, because this movie wasn't meant to be that. This was a movie about the FIRST ROUND OF THE 1983 DRAFT!!! Elway and Marino bookended the draft and had the same agent who told the story of the entire round. The movie had nothing to do with the Buffalo Bills Offense! I just watched a rerun of the Cosby Show from 1986, I am not pissed that they didn't talk about the K-gun.
again, this was not a documentary about the best QB class of all time, it was about the events that surrounded that draft as documented by the agent for Elway and Marino
i dont get what people are not understanding about that
Some people are too stupid to watch television.
-
I like how the QB with the most SB appearances got the least airtime, yet if you do the math, Elway's gums got 80% of the airtime.
The documentary wasn'y ABOUT the QBs of the first round. It was about Elway and Marino AND the rest of the first round

The only reason I can think of that you shouldn't use the iPad for pics is that they're not very sharp images. Otherwise, they're a great device!
I agree, the picture quality is terrible, but in this case, it protected his face AND still worked after getting hit.

I don't know...I thought they revealed tom cruise but I heard it incorrectly... apparently its a piano player that no one would be surprised by..and probably someone who was more popular in the 90's as opposed to today...NOT Elton john...
John Tesh!?

Not on topic, but I'm gonna say my piece. I have a Cuisinart coffee maker. I buy a bag of good coffee (Usually Spot Coffee here in Buffalo) every two weeks or so for 12 bucks. I make 2 cups of coffee, 2 scoops, pot filled to the 6 cup mark. Makes me two nice, strong 12oz cups. I drink both before I go to work. That's it. I cannot imagine how a K-cup would work for me or anyone who has two cups a morning and could just do what I do.
When I saw how expensive the machines were and how much each cup of coffee is with a K-cup, I flat out could not understand it.
I believe it is a marketing sell which is taking in alot of people that have no need to for a 1 cup at a time experience.

If Mrs. Welker's husband hadn't dropped that 3rd down pass that hit him in the chest, she may have been able to be sending a congratulatory tweet to him instead.

Search over, the boss had us go with this.... I think is has call waiting.

KD, thanks. I just looked around on their site and their failure to disclose their pricing in any way, shape or form is concerning.
I did find http://www.tollfreeconference.com/ and they are also 5 cents a minute as I had been using. I may give them a try.
Bluefire, the first one of those, the LOWEST price is 8 cents a minute. The second link looks like a real nice web collaboration/meeting tool. I use GoToMeeting, but anything were to happen there, that looks like a good alternative.

The company we have used, LiveOffice Teleconferencing is closing down at the end of March. Our company uses their service for conference calls. We pay 5 cents a minute paying for 5000 in advance each month. We always use a bit more than that.
Do any of you use an 800 service? Is there one you're happy with?
Thanks,

Why are they saying all those things during the game?
-
I have my tix to the opener next Sunday afternoon and am already excited as hell. That video was great. Bring it ON!!!!

Marrone told Bills' old assistants that he's not going to interview them. What has DeHaven done other than luck out to have Tasker & Pike on his teams in the '90s? He's proven to be a bad ST coach otherwise.
Agree on DeHaven and I also read (I think Tim Graham) last week that existing coaches told they were not being considered.

Hate= it blocks play by play of the game.
Love=getting to hear the news conference when a free agent
like Mario is signed.
DR
This has not been true the last few games of the season. They never turned the stream off during the game.
Question about TuneIn:
I paid and downloaded the app. Works great with one exception.
I cannot simply make a phone call while the App is running. I have to close it out and then make the call; unlike with the WGR app.
Anyone have this issue with their iPhone?
I have ATT and it simply pauses the app when I use the phone. I do have to hit play again. I never have to close it and reopen. Could this be a Verizon thing?

This is foolish. You quoted an article stating it was an example of how to cover camp and panned the News for hiding in Mario's bushes. The article you quoted was written a half our before Mark Gaughn wrote a far more detailed coverage of camp for the day. Three hours later you posted your complaint that the News is not covering camp properly. You went BACK to the Espn post to paraphrase it. Then when the complete coverage in the News was pointed out to you, you rationalized by saying you read the other article 3 hours earlier.
I don't work for the News and beside reading it online have no relation at all. I just feel if you're going to rip their coverage in error, when its pointed out you were wrong, you could at least say, oops, missed that, I guess they are covering practice as well.
You were wrong and I'm pretty bored with pointing that out to you... Continue your crusade against the News if you'd like.
