I got into a HUGE facebook dustup with my libtard friends when I dropped the cold reality on them that while 250/yr is a good living, its HARDLY "weathly." Their response? "Well...youre doing better than people in [insert lower income neighborhoods here], so you MUST be wealthy!!!"

The most tiresome trait of Bills fans is the need to ALWAYS have someone to hate. And making it worse, its usually for petty reasons. Even in WEEK ONE, a player or a coach will be targeted and THAT GUY will the labeled "the reason" for ALL the Bills failures. It can be petty and stupid: "We wears a headband!!!!!" "He doesnt wear a headset!!!!" "He had a bad game in a driving blizzard...he sucks!!!" It can have to do with on the field stuff: "He passes on third down too much!!!!" "He runs the 3-4/4-3/Tampa2, etc." And what makes it completely STUPID is the fact that these little petty items people focus on are taken completely out of context and scrutinzed. As if no player or coach has had a bad game in a blizzard...or chose not to wear a headset....or ran the Tampa 2 and won. or rin the case of Edwards, had a tough year coaching a team full of sub-par talent. Facts and context are dismissed. Groupthink rules the day. If many Bills fans dont have someone to burn at the stake, they arent happy. Its a mob-like "Chuck Dickerson" mentality and its boorish, ignorant and lame

VERY telling. Thats now two "hollywood prima donna" types that have come to the Bills and had glowing things to say about the org. TO was the first, now Merriman.

I've always contended that the NY Daily News has a rotation of the following headlines to sell papers: 1. Look at what that white guy did to that black guy!!!!!!! 2. Look at what that white republican on Fox News said!!!!! 3. The NY Yankees! On the other side of town, the NY Post has a rotation of the following: 1. "Naked chicks! See Them Here!" Newspapers play to the LOWEST common denominator in order to move product. Always have.

I give those rules about a week.

"Regardless, don't these big corporations run our government and pull the strings of our manchurian President? They're the ones who got all of the laws passed, corruption rules, Sarbanes-Oxley." Youre an idiot.

More or less the way it goes with every conference call. Oh...and Whitner and Poz are FAR from "solid" players.

Really? You were on the sideline and knew the Bills' approach to the game?

Oh this is rich...companies "pushed" Sarbanes-Oxley" to get passed. Ya know...so they can spend all that money making sure they are in compliance. Nothing does more for a public company's bottom line than spending money and resources to make sure its in compliance with goverment regulations.

Thats awesome, isnt it?

Did'nt you know all those line workers in Everett and Renton are rich, greedy slobs? True story....did the Everett plant tour once and caught them on their lunch hour. They were eating $20s and shitting $50s. ****, isnt EVERYONE in Seattle rich? Theres that Gates guy I saw on Fox News once.

Dont be a smartass. Virtually NOBODY on that US Air flight had a CLUE what was really going to happen until Sully yelled "brace for impact" into the Airbus' PA system.

To piss you and Chuck Dickerson off.

The "quality" of the education they are getting is a very different (and very real) issue from the idea that these kids "dont get any benefit." Some kind of small stipend is a good solution to the problems you describe.

Exactly, Fezmid. I worked my ass off in college, carrying a full time gigs worth of working time, plus a full courseload, and Im STILL paying off my tuition and Im close to 40. And I didnt even go away to school. The athelete full ride types, which is who we are talking about, get EVERYTHING for free, leave school without a DIME in loans, and while IN school, get treated like the President. President CLINTON, that is...with all the female ass in tow. No....I dont begrudge them...they were blessed with the physical size and skills to get those free rides. But regardless.... they get A TON more than most. At worst, they get a free education and room and board at an elite university. At best, they get the free ride AND a draft slot with a pro sports league. So spare me the "oh the poor college athlete" routine. They get plenty.

Seriously...who put PCs in the insane asylum over the last two days?

-1 They get paid. Its called "tuition"

You keep trying to "uncover" and "expose" something. But in the end...all you uncover and expose...is your idiocy.

+100000000000000000000 Massively depressed becuase they got blown out by the class of the league in one game and playing the second string in a meanlingless exhibition? Get over yourself. I see lots of good with this team. Fitz proved he can play, while not the stuff of coaching legend Gailey did a nice job and put a good program in place, and some players emerged as bona fide NFL-level producers. The team has got MILES to go before being a competitor, but for the first time in years, Im feeling good going into the offseason. Theres some forward momentum and traction. Something on which to build. Massively optimistic.

Three years later, these women are suddenly offended and hurt?

OK, Dickerson.

I think you need to stop smoking the funny stuff.

I cant fire a guy for not turning water into wine.

The only judge of whether a player has talent or not is the Pro Bowl? Really? If so, than that means only 100 some odd (or whatever the # of players who go) players are any good and there are a TON of "talentless" players in the NFL. Sean O'Hara is starting the Pro Bowl at C for the NFC. So there goes your idea on what a Pro Bowl berth is worth.

Thats like a salesman telling you "This is the best Toyota Corolla on the lot." Bills need to use their great draft position for players who are a liiiiiiitle bit more hard to come by (DT,NT, DE, QB, LT, etc.) than wide receivers who cant catch.
