You want an experienced DC? Then pull Buddy Ryan's
Shamrock replied to Tipster19's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
...instead of "acting" with Will Ferrell, get Iron Mike Ditka out of Type A Retirement hell...geez, trading an entire draft should count some senility points if his age doesn't chronologically count... -
So, what DO you like about the Bills nowadays?
Shamrock replied to Grant's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
...friendliness...I've come from Oz to Buffalo 4 times now and it's been very friendly (apart from the cabbie who ripped me off my first time). John Guy was great- actually, fantastic.The training camp set up is really nice as well, great little town. The police were helpful too. There's quite a bit for a football fan to do in Buffalo, apart from, well football, Fort Niagra, the naval musuem, Niagra...The fans have been great too, as have the folk from the Stadium wall that i've met up with. The Big Tree Inn. Buffalo wings...that's enough? -
How about the old Bucs logo, you know with th Pirate at Center, looks suspiciously like Buffalo Bill...

Takeo Spikes ..... will he ever come back?
Shamrock replied to truth on hold's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
As a Podiatrist: It will depend largely on where the tear occurred along the length of the Achilles. High/ Low- at the muscular-tendinous junction origin, tendon, or tendon-periosteum insertion, or obviously a combination. How much of the fibre was torn- complete rupture or partial? How did the tear occur- transverse plane with many fibres or more disorganised, multiplanar, but with many intact fibre units? Was it a blow-out, or did it occur from a progressive degeneration of the Achilles from many injuries? How scar tissue development occurs and is managed? Surgical correction- did it need additional suturing with say plantaristo trengthen it? So I'd say there was plenty of guessing to go... plenty? Maybe it will be Luck that brings him back, after having the GM sacked and the HC QUIT, it's something the Bills need. -
Bills offer DC job to Bates!

The Rams, over the last few years, win or lose, have had success in getting a lot out of previously thought of as mediocre QB's (Warner, Bulger), and they spread the ball around a lot. Martz is known to love the pass, but the Rams ran the ball well, at various times. I think we get, in Fairchild, a guy who is schooled in the "offensive genious" of Martz, without getting stuck with the "douche bag" that is Martz....a lot of the Rams offensive success was dependent on the running back, either running or blocking. Hopefully, Willis is in step with all of the changes, and elevates his game, the way most of us thought he would this past season. ...do we get Tom Nutten back -
IF THE BILLS ARE SOLD AND MOVED ...

Melbourne, Victoria...100,000 seat MCG stadium...then i wouldn't have to travel 15,000 miles to get to Buffalo to see a Home Game! -
Football fans? Hardly.

...forgive me, but I live in Oz and it's been 45 degrees Celcius- 3 questions. 1. What's a SUV? 2. Should I be happy that my new coach eats SPINACH? 3. Should i be concerned about my new coach's oral hygiene routine? It's very friggin hot... -
Would it be better to have done an analysis for Jauron's W-L record progressively? Such as week 4, the Bungles may have been, say 3-0 but ended the season at 7-9, therefore it may have been a good win..but i get your point...I'd rather go into Battle with a Sherman on my side, rather than a Dick...

Orgasmic Happiness 15 Years Ago Today
Shamrock replied to Mark VI's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
...i am glad someone mentioned Jamie Meuller. I remember a sweep left, him coming around the corner and absolutely nailing a LBer. Flat out crushed him...ahh, I will have to raise this in the gym to my Raider mate... -
...how far Mangini has come...he's gone from coaching in the Carribean to the Big Time... Plenty of AFL guys with long punting ability. Have spoken to John Guy about it a couple of years ago on my last visit...

The Jests taking a coach whom has coached a team, the Kew Colts (folded many moons ago) in the Victorian Gridiron League...Australia... -
Jets new HC was a coach of Gridiron down under in Melbourne, Australia for the Kew Colts. More interesting, perhaps is that Jets kicker was the Geelong Captain 2 years ago in the Australian Football League...

I just don't see two Octogenarians out-laying a large sum of $ to TO. I don't think TO and Marv are on the same page when it comes to character. But then again, to play the Devil's advocate, maybe it could be a situation similar to that which occurred with Mike Tyson and his Coach/ mentor, Cus D'amato- (1985- 1988). However, Mike was a puppy then and TO is 33 and too old maybe to mentor and the situation you'd get would be Mike Tyson in charge of escorting the Beauty Pagent...don't even mention biting...

Bryce Fisher is having a damn fine year too for Seattle.
-
Sherman. Haslett says all the right things but hasn't gotten NO over the hump and that's a concern. But then again, i'm sure that whom ever is brought in, if they do well it's because of the calibre of signees and if they do bad it'll be because of the lack of signees- Katrina year excused Jim.

Doesn't DR run a really complex offense with complicated play calling to boot? Would that be a good fit to a rookie or journeyman that we currently have in Buffalo? Not sure.

Someone needs to enter Kenny in this contest

Should Losman had been played today? Holcomb passed for 2 TD's but 4 Picks nd total yardage was less than 200. I see Moulds was again the leading receiver- another concern for next year with Evans, Parrish and Reed as the replacements. So MM stuck it out with KH- why? For the chance to win? Because he doesn't want to bench KH, sending the wrong message to the now incumbent starter for next year? Just thought it odd that in a meaningless game, hmmm 6-10 or 5-11 record that the QB of the future wouldn't even be asked to come off of the bench. OT-The Jets Punter, Ben Graham's an ex-Aussie Footballer, following the Darren Bennett pathway. I asked the Bills in 2002 if they'd look at him and they said that the Oz guys take too long punt...the next name fo scouting is Anthony Rocca- "Pebbles", the guys got a horse of a leg...

Which DT would you sign as a project?
Shamrock replied to BravinSeattle's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Not a DT, but check out Kyle Van Den Bosche's season with the Titans. Kind of goes against the view a little http://www.nfl.com/players/playerpage/235252 -
That's so sad. hugs from Oz
