  1. My favorite Matt Millen moment was him punching little whiny Patriots GM Pat Sullivan in the face... https://deadspin.com/5901978/the-time-matt-millen-punched-patriots-general-manager-pat-sullivan-in-the-head/amp .
  2. Among Beane’s Biggest Blunders... 1) Trading a 3rd & 7th for Benjamin; 2) Not trading Benjamin for at least a 6th or 7th at the deadline; 3) Not trading McCoy at the deadline when he had some value and there was some interest from other teams. JMO .
  3. Hey, all Marino gave his O-line was a pair of Isotoner gloves! ? .
  4. Daboll can easily be replaced by Mike Leach. For that matter, so can McDermott. In fact, it would probably require both of their salaries to lure him from Wazzu. ? .
  5. Too bad there weren’t any clutch players in the 4 Superbowls. .
  6. “We should have cheated...screw this sh**...next week, we cheat!” .
  7. Tattaglia was a pimp...he could never have outfought Santino. .
  8. I beg to disagree. Having lived there almost 7 years and holding season tix to both Red Sox and Patriots, I can attest wholeheartedly that Boston is first and foremost a baseball town (maybe a “Yankees Suck” town second, but that pretty much died out after 2004). My friend’s 85 yo grandmother would be glued to the TV for every game, and name every player on the roster, probably even their batting’s average or ERA. There are so many just like her. It’s the only city I know of the actually has a visible beacon atop one of their tallest, most historic buildings, the old Hancock Building, to let folks know that the game is on or rained out - it can be seen throughout the city and surrounding suburbs https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases.detail.html//content/prnewswire/us/en/news-releases.detail.html/john-hancock-weather-beacon-flashes-red-and-blue-to-celebrate-red-sox-world-series-victory-230044391.html.html All that said, Patriots fans are the most fair weather fans I know of. Soon, they’ll all be Giants fans again, like they were before the AFL. .
  9. Nothin’ for nothin’, Blitz, but a wild card game would mean that an undefeated team did not win their division, and also would make them 20-0. Just sayin’. (Edit and out - just caught my own drunken math..,playoff loss would be 16-1 and out of the playoffs. My vodka induced bad.) .
  10. Thanks, friend... 19 and 0 baby!!!! GO BILLSSS!!!!! ????? .
  11. Really??? I would like to see them dressed in all Magenta - a purplish cross between red and blue. ? .
  12. Well, it should be all about winning but, unfortunately, it’s also about squeezing every last penny out of the fans (and the TV networks). JMO .
  13. IMHO, it’s only to sell more jerseys, same reason the Sabres always have a third Jersey. And, perfect timing, all the kids will want one for Christmas. .
  14. Those are the absolutely most ridiculous uniforms the Bills have ever worn. They look like a college team, only uglier than Oregon. .
  15. Quite a difference from the treatment Terrell Owens got - private jet, dinner at Tempo, finest hotel, so much wining and dining that Owens decided to stay another day and called his wife to come and look at available homes for sale. The Bills sent a private jet to bring her here! .
  16. Barber was the guy that drafted Tom Cousineau #1 overall (using the #1 pick they obtained from the 49ers for O.J. Simpson) then failed to pick him up at the airport, failed to take him to his hotel, failed to take him to dinner, failed at everything. Cousineau was upset, his agent was infuriated. Cousineau went to the CFL. (The silver lining is, that when Cousineau returned to the NFL after his CFL contract was up, the Bills promptly traded his rights to Cleveland for a first round pick, which we used to draft Jim Kelly.)
  17. You’re right - he might not be the worst GM in Bills history. That distinction has to go to either Buddy Nix or Stew Barber. .
  18. Indeed, as does his picking Terrell Troup one pick ahead of Gronkowski! ?
  19. And then the Bills will trade a first round pick for him! ?
  20. True, but it’d also be hard to imagine McDermott preferring Peterman over anyone else. Just sayin. .
  21. But this is a Buffalo doubleheader - the Sabres Bruins game is at 5pm! .
  22. Ryan McFadden’s - 800 2nd Ave. at 40th Street. Be prepared for a very large crowd, almost entirely Bills fans. .
  23. They all have some great songs, and most have the occasional crappy, almost gimmicky tune that written purely as filler. I understand McCartney got the idea for Eight Days a Week - a really really simplistic tune with even more simplistic lyrics - from a conversation with the cab driver that took him to Lennon’s house one morning, and they conceived and finished the song in 3 hours. (The cabbie told Sir Paul he was working so hard, it felt like 8 days a week.) The one album that is consistently great, start to finish, is Abbey Road. JMO :
  24. “As long as the roots are not severed, all is well. And all will be well in the garden.” .
