  1. Langston Walker was a bad RT. Dockery was flat out terrible. I remember once the Bills were playing in the mud. The players were filthy except Walker. His uniform looked like it was dry cleaned. Walker even had some sort of weird TV video he would do. Dockery was much like Melvin Fowler. The both came in to a horrid Bills OL as free agents, and both looked as if they could play, but they stunk up the field.
  2. That is an extremely high ranking. i'm not going to argue the point but what I will say is that if depth is not added, the whole thing can rapidly fall apart. The Bills have to protect Josh at all costs. I never want to see the Bills return to the very long period of time where their OL just flat out sucked. Not ever.
  3. Come on everybody I say now let's play a game I betcha I can make a rhyme Out of anybody's name The first letter of the name I treat it like it wasn't there But a "B" or an "F" Or an "M" will appear
  4. Wow, hello DCT!!! I hope that all is well!!!!! 👍
  5. I think it is better to stay single than it is to get married and then get divorced. The problem with this is that there is a 50% chance that you will in fact get divorced. The odds on a divorce from your second marriage then skyrocket well beyond that 50%. What surprises many people is that most divorcees do NOT trade up. I also think that being in a marriage that is honest and 100% equal is better than being single for you entire life. Don't get me wrong. I got married at 28 and had some unforgettable, excellent nights when I was single. Still, great relationships are a wonderful thing. This is a good thread but I think that a divorce thread would be even more interesting, and of good use to those contemplating marriage. They might learn behaviors to both look for in a possible spouse and personal behavior to avoid. They would also undoubtably read a horror story or two, or dozens of them.
  6. I disagree. If for instance his wife is making his life miserable, this means more than playing football 3,000 milies from home (if there is an option). Should he put his foot down if she makes it an issue and demand a divorce? And again,, we are talking about six years down the road.
  7. If he gives us six years it's cool with me. His wife might insist on it. He might have kids by then and they may want to raise them close to the families. This means more than how much we like the Bills. Hopefully at some point Josh and the Bills won't have to field a team against Taylor Swift.
  8. Isn't he under contract through 2028? After that the Bills could franchise him for another two years. Please someone correct me if I am wrong but if I have this right, I refuse to worry about what might happen with Josh Allen six years from now.
  9. My father didn't know the meaning of the word He disrespected Mama and treated us like dirt I left home seeking a job that I never did find Depressed and down-hearted, I took to Cloud Nine I'm doing fine, up here on Cloud Nine Listen, one more time I'm doing fine, up here on Cloud Nine
  10. Don't let the day get the better of you When the evening comes, there's so much to do! You'd better put on your best and wear a smile Come along with me a while 'cause I tell you I know a place Where the music is fine and the lights are always low! I know a place Where we can go
  11. I partially agree. Jumbo Elliot got into trouble when he was on the Jets. He and three other people destroyed a bar in Long Beach. https://nypost.com/1999/07/11/unnecessary-roughness-by-jets-trio/ Let's just say that I am also aware of a couple of lesser unreported incidents. That said, several years ago I sat with him at a coffee shop which he owned, and spoke with him for approx. 30 minutes. He was 100% normal. He had lost at least 50 pounds. He donated money to the volunteer firefighters and owned 2 businesses in the community. He told me about how it was to play against Bruce Smith, and that he had coached Jason Peters when he was a udfa. When I commented how strong Peters was, he implied that he was stronger lol. Maybe he was. I'm certainly not a doctor, but I suspect that being off the roids (and almost certainly booze as well) contributed to this drastic change of behavior.
  12. I never believed that Martin was bullied. How many NFL left tackles are bullied? What I do believe is that Incognito is a thuggish, gigantic man with super strength who was roided out for many years. To this day I think that steroids are quite prevalent in the NFL. They are the elephant in the room that fans can't or won't see. Remember Jose Canseco anyone? In high school he was so shy that he barely spoke at all. Jose went from 195 lbs to 245 lbs and actually got faster. This once ever so shy person was then driving around well over 100 miles per hour and fooling around with Madonna (not a rarity for steroid users in those days lol). I think that Ruben Foster (for those who remember him) could have been an all time great linebacker, but off the field issues (and some injuries) screwed up his career. He was fast and extremely vicious, with super human strength. He was a predator on the field and a maniac off of it. Was he on steroids? All we can do is guess. I am not on an anti-steroid crusade. I wish the players well but I have no, nor do I want any control of what these players do to their bodies. The NFL is entertainment to me. I do however believe that untraceable steroid usage is still widespread in the NFL. Do I have any evidence to present? Of course not. That said, some of these off field incidents do raise a few eyebrows, to say the least. Of course, this is jmo.
  13. See the smile awaitin' in the kitchen Food cookin' and the plates for two Feel the arms that reach out to hold me In the evening, when the day is through Summer breeze makes me feel fine Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind Summer breeze makes me feel fine Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind
  14. I wonder how you're feeling There's ringing in my ears And no one to relate to 'cept the sea Who can I believe in? I'm kneeling on the floor There has to be a force Who do I phone? The stars are out and shining But all I really want to know Oh won't you show me the way, every day I want you to show me the way
  15. Yes, him. The best blocker who ever played in Buffalo. All teams have made some poor trades, but trading Jason Peters was easily one of the worst, dumbest trades in NFL history.
  16. Wow!!! One can see from hundreds of miles away what a good person that gentleman is.
  17. So meet me tonight, just where the light shines, from a window, and, as I take your hand, say that you'll be mine tonight. Oh, I would be so glad just to have a love like that, Oh, I would be true and I'd give my life for you.
  18. Seen a lot of things in this old world When I touch them they mean nothing girl Ooh baby, here I am Signed, sealed, delivered, I'm yours! I'm yours!
  19. He was pretty bad on the Bills but somehow decent on the Vikings iirc.
  20. He really was. I am a huge Crimson Tide Fan and I was strongly against that pick. He was in fact the 4th or 5th best blocker on that team and was struggling with knee injuries as you say.
  21. Another honorable mention would be OT Greg Jerman. Greg was cut by the Dolphins. What did the Bills do? They picked him up and put him in at left tackle where he was bad beyond words. He could not pass block or run block and our qbs and rbs were getting slaughtered. I would watch game hoping that no Bills players would be seriously injured or killed. This poor guy would get tossed around like a frisbee. As of 2014 he is a lawyer and an Assistant DA in Texas. I wish him the best.
  22. I'm going to run with a guard Marcus Spriggs. He not only was unable to block, he didn't even try. Once Rob Johnson got hit late and was laying on the floor bleeding. Spriggs didn't give the defender a second look, let alone attack him. He just glanced at RJ and kept walking. The young fans probably have no idea just how bad our offensive lines were for just so long.
  23. Well, there's a brand-new place I've found Where people go from miles around They come from everywhere And if you drop in there You might see anyone in town Going to a go-go, everybody's Going to a go-go, well, come on now Don't you want to go, yeah
