  1. I believe you may wish to step back and consider how long Rockefeller ran NY. The wheels had fallen off NY long before Mario (Andrew's father) was Governor of NY. Democrat or Republican alike have taken down NY. There's no single party that can deny culpability.
  2. Denney was better than Kelsay. Considerably. While no star, he was far more solid, run-pass than Kelsay ever was. He may not have had a shot at LB, but then Kelsay shouldn't be there either.
  3. Dish is actually pretty decent. It's my main viewing source and DTV is used only for the Sunday Ticket (yes, I have only the Sunday Ticket with DTV and have had only the Ticket from DTV for years). Personal choices, and mine is that in general, I don't like DTV, and I have tried it for extended periods, twice, but poor equipment flexiblity (I like Dish Network's dual tuners.) pissed me off and DTV quality is no better, and may actually not be as good. (Cue...The Fez....)
  4. Wasn't she the one who openly acknowledged downloading Music from p2p to beat paying for it? (not that there aren't a number here who have done the same thing)
  5. While I'm no fan of the Ravens, it sure was sweet to watch Brady under perform against them in last years playoffs.
  6. Good observations. Green has been a turnstile to date. Hard not to see why Oakland let him go. As for Edwards, his finally stepping into some throws is a very good sign. One, that takes a bit of confidence that he's not going to get his head ripped off, and that understands it's importance whether he's going to take a hit or not. Yet, his throwing motion just seems wrong to me. It looks at times as if he's simply pushing the ball rather than letting it rip.
  7. For me, it will be #90, Hansen......one of my all time favorite Bills.
  8. Lonnie, heck with that. Vote for "wrong-way" Jim Marshall.....
  9. Oh, how I miss watching Andre Reed perform. No doubt in my mind, he is one of the all time greats....
  10. Dear God, please give Willis a brain. One that he might even use. Old Willis must live in another dimension because in this one, he's rather ordinary at best.
  11. It was the same in Buffalo during their SB years. Preseason is what it is, but there is one absolute, the Colts are a second tier team without Manning. If he ever goes down, they're in BIG trouble.
  12. Cablelady, short and to the point.
  13. Praised? That's a bit much. Some "accepted" the acquisition as a stop gap move, but "praised"? I don't recall that.
  14. White helmet, great. Standing, sleeping, grazing Buffalo, horribly old and outdated. Somethings simply weren't better back in the day. The standing Buffalo is dfinitely7 one of those.
  15. CJ will have to break some of his college habits. He's no longer in a class to himself and will have to come to grips with some plays will lose yardage, or won't gain anything. Accept it and head to the next play. He won't always be able to outrun everyone.
  16. NFL economics will "soon require 18 games to float fincially"? Horse dung, unequivocal horse dung. An 18 game schedule is simply to feed the greed of the Jones, Synder, Kraft, etc., club. Pure and simple - greed.
  17. Yes, that's the way it works. It's not a bad thing either. It's not as if the Bills roster couldn't be up upgraded in most areas.
  18. Even if Bell's play is decent this year, we still haven't any depth at Tackle, and we also will have an aging, mediocre RT to replace come season's end. I believe a Tackle will still be a high priority draft or trade.
  19. Wow, and just a couple weeks ago, it was spoken on this board that the TE position had numerous choices and decently stocked. Now, it's Stupar and who ever else the Bills can scrounge up (signed one today). Schouman just never can remain healthy. The waiving of Mathews was a bit of a surprise, given our lack of depth unless his injury is more long term than has been disclosed. Nelson, 4 game suspension. Talk about snake bit.
  20. New board looks great, but I'm not sure about the "rep" thing. Other boards have it and in some ways it's been kind of nice not having this.
  21. Must admit that I too have wondered bout this practice for quite some time. Seems so redundant.
  22. ......so you're saying that Mallett wears cement shoes?
  23. I'm sorry, but this sad old song simply needs to be put to rest.
  24. There may be a bit of over reacting yet I can't help but remember those SB years too. Even in the preseason, our firt line offense could move the ball, and do so quite well. Marv went to the second & third teams quickly and we lost, but we still saw an offense that was going to be effective, if not excellent. I watched those games and never thought, "Oh Boy, we're in trouble".
