  1. This season we need to run the Castrol ad on our jumbotron everytime our team screws up. Think with your dipstick!!!!

     

     

     

    Man, I love that commercial. I think my girlfriend hates that I won't blow by it with the DVR, but I just don't care, I have to see it whenever it comes on.

  2. WGR reports that Terrell Ownes will be in Dallas (no reason given) while his teamates are in Pittsburgh to face the Steelers. This despit the fact that he twitters that his toe is completely healed. Is this anything? Do the players care what T.O. does as long as he gives 100% on game day, or are these special rules for him going to backfire?

     

    PTR

     

     

    I just want him to be in NE two weeks from this coming Monday.

  3. I might be in the minority on this board, but I like Chad. I think that he has a great personality and loves playing the game. I thought that it was kind of cool when they showed him going to the club, but he did not drink, and when he went to buy earings at some strip mall place and spent $15. He was making a point that just because you have a lot of money, you do not have to waste it. It is too bad more athletes do not realize this.

     

    I would take him on the Bills anytime.

     

    In a way, he is like TO. They both have personality (sometime oversized personality), but never get in trouble with the law.

     

     

     

    You may be in the minority, but you are not alone, Peter. I really like the guy, think he is fun and adds a lot to the game.

  4. Best show on television, bar none. How insane would it be if they did a Hard Knocks on the Bills one of these seasons? How cool are Carson Palmer and Tank Williams? How sick of Chad Johnson would you get if he was on your team yappin every day?

     

     

    I do love the show and I've actually enjoyed every season they've done it. Man, does it get good (showing the human side of sports) when you get down to these last two weeks and the cut downs.

     

    BTW, seeing that Chad Johnson is the Bengals' disaster kicker and that Shane Graham was hurt changes some of the circumstances of heat that Ochocinco took from not only the local media but from NFL radio concerning his extra point kick and kick off.

  5. Good news.

     

    and 29 getting old? Until what age did Darrel Green play effective football?

     

    Hopefully it would be a 4 year contract somewhere in the ball park of $20-25 Million

     

     

     

    OK, but really, we are not going to start making comparison's between McGee and Darrel Green, are we?

     

     

    I agree with your numbers.

  6. I like him. I used to listen to him a lot starting in the mid 90s. Some of the callers were really funny and the annual "Smack Off" was always great. I became disillusioned a bit when he started to sell out. I remember when he almost daily made fun of Nascar or as he called it, "The Left Turn Circuit" Then, all of a sudden one day he loves it. Obviously trying to appeal to more listeners. He did the same with soccer. Anyway, that said, he still is more entertaining than 90% of sports radio and tv personalities. I listened a few weeks ago a couple days in a row when Rome was on holidays. He had Jay Mohr guest hosting and then another day he had these two brothers hosting. Both days were really funny.

     

     

    Right there.

     

     

    Oh, and it was the Sklar brothers and I love when Jay Mohr guest hosts.

  7. And a couple Super Bowls wins.

     

     

    Three to be exact, and 4 Conference Championship games if you throw in Rivers' (unless I'm missing one of Ben's); and how many playoff appearances?

     

    Pulling it off the top of my head I'm thinking 9 or 10.

     

     

    Not a bad total for those four guys... :thumbsup:

     

     

    Seriously, my board brothers and sisters...and we wonder why we haven't been in the playoffs for 10 years.

  8. The Representative from Chautauqua County would like nominate Natalie Merchant and comedian Laura Kightlinger.

     

    I guess former Backstreet no talent hack Nick Carter was born in Jimmytown, but we don't want him associated with the team.

     

     

    Bullpen, your nominations are so noted, and as longs Ralph has enough B shares of stock to go around, they are welcome.

     

     

    May we also bring in Nick Bakay?

  9. Start lining up the celebrity minority owner's, Ralph:

     

     

    Christine Baranski (She's been everywhere in entertainment - stage, screen, television)

     

    Wendi Malick (from Just Shoot Me and Dream On)

     

    David Boreanez (OK, I know, he considers himself a Philly guy, but he knows where he and his father got there start)

     

    Jeffery Jones (Principle from Ferris Beuler's Day Off - yes he has gotten into some legal troubles, but beggars can't be choosers)

     

    Chad Michael Murray (One Tree Hill - hell, he still comes back for Bills games)

  10. That's true, I only saw him play a couple of games. I guess I just don't like what I'm seeing from Edwards lately. Thanks for the statistical analysis!

     

     

    Whatever problems we have with Trent Edwards right now are not going to be cured by Tyler Thigpen or either of the ghosts of David Humm or Joe Dufek.

  11. I'm glad. There seems to be some tension in the air between Edwards and Jauron. Both of them this week have made uncharacteristic comments regarding some sort of discontent for one another after the Packers game. Edwards subtly hinted that the coaching staff hasn't been preparing properly against 3-4 defenses and Jauron basically said that Edwards has been a Puss.

     

    I'd rather have this happen now than during the season, and it is time that they both make each other feel not so comfortable with where they are and that they hold each other and themselves accountable for their actions.

     

    I take this as a positive.

     

     

    As much as i wanted to get worried about it I couldn't agree more, Magox. Lets see the fires burn a little bit more from these players and coaches.

  12. No, they don't appear to be in great shape. You'll see in my next post that I also miss Rusty. Just saying this injury isn't a result of poor conditioning.

     

     

    Absolutely agree that it did not have anything to do with it.

     

    Man, how F'd up was that, CC, when Rusty left? Then when you hear Reuben Brown talk about Rusty he mentions how much they loved him in Chicago.

     

    Why'd ya do it, Coach Mike? Just so you could replace a highly rated veteran coach with a buddy of yours?

     

    :)

  13. Yeah. Our strength and conditioning coaches don't pay enough attention to hands. Also, I've heard the practices are really grueling, so you could probably just blame the entire coaching staff.

     

    :thumbsup:

     

     

    Seriously, though, Cave, on a side note regardless of injuries, does this seem like one of the most well conditioned teams you've seen in the league the last few years?

     

     

    After the Mularky debacle that sent Rusty away, how has their conditioning been?

  14. What big name free agents did he ever chase in Pittsburgh? In fact during his era Pittsburgh was notorious for letting key players walk after their contracts expired (ie Rod Woodson).

     

     

    BD, absolutely right, however:

     

    1. The Pittsburgh football organization is a far cry from the Buffalo program.

     

    2. Don't you think that if he gets back into coaching the second time around that he would want a little different situation...in other words, money to get players?

     

     

    Do we really, honestly think a coach of his stature is saying to himself: "Man, if I get back into this I truly would like to go to another cash strapped organization in a dying Northeastern town, b/c, with my kids mostly grown, I would not want to dream of living in places like Tampa, Dallas, Chicago, Denver, San Diego, Washington or New York."

     

     

    I live in Buffalo, I love Buffalo, I'm just sayin.

  15. I hope Jauron & company proves everyone wrong and makes the playoffs. But if somehow he doesn't, I could sell a guy like Cowher on the Bills job in a hour.

     

    I would just tell him how great of a blue collar family town this is, how much the Bills mean to this community, the young talent, control over personnel, have Jimbo & Thurman talked to him, show the Norwood rally, and say he could literally save the Bills from moving. He could be a hero here. He's probably pay to coach after that speech.

     

     

    I would love it, Pitta, but lets just say he did, and honestly lets say he gives Cowher a 5 year, 35 million dollar deal...what happens when Cowher wants to chase after free agents and make his team better?

     

    Are the Bills going to open up the pocket book? Does Cowher even believe that they are going to open up the pocket book?

     

    The reality of today is that a coach like Cowher is going to go where the money is, and not just for himself.

  16. The Defense also took a step backwards this week. Again the CBs are getting beat consistently by underneath routes when they play 10 yards off the WRs. Am I the only one seeing this? The pass rush on 1st team was pretty much non-existent again this week. I don’t think Maybin’s presence is going to be enough to help here. More 5 and 6 man rushes might help.

     

     

    Yeah, I really can't blame McKelvin (I think it was him) on a TD pass GB has the receiver at the 5 or 6 yard line, while our DB is at the goal line, before the snap.

     

    For crying out loud, this is a play you set-up in Madden: DB off the receiver, you are in the shadow of the goal post, audible your receiver to an inside slant, TD celebration, kick the extra point.

  17. Why are they not trying this guy with the first team offense? He has been a consistant target of both Fitz and the Chroise. He clearly knows how to get open and he his hands seems solid. He is definately a gamer. Considering Fine and Shouman have shown nothing this pre-season, they should give him a shot. They have 2 more preseason games, IMO he has already made the roster, let him play with the first team next game. At worst, he stinks and goes back to #3, at best you have found a diamond in the rough.

     

     

     

     

    I agree, I'm stupefied on why they haven't done it already.

     

     

     

     

     

    (oh, come on, you knew it was coming)
