I thought the defense would always be good, but yesterday was the first time I'd consider them elite. They pretty much won the game for the Bills. It sure is nice to have something to be proud of like that, even if the national media is a clueless bunch of major market sycophants.

I think he's great, as well. He was very good in Almost Famous. Haven't seen love liza, but will try. Nice Rochester connection, as well.

Judging from the title of this thread, I thought the article would be on movies about pirates -- as in the "Arrrg." kind.

It depends. If it's a good game that for some reason is blacked out, I'll go. Otherwise, it's the radio. I went to the cards game because it was blacked out, though. But also because I was able to get good seats. I must admit, I love Bills football, but there are parts of the stadium experience that I don't enjoy. Such as drunks throwing stuff at you - like 1/2 full beer cans. Or watching people puke when walking down the stairs. Or listening to some foul-mouthed dick scream all day. So, for me, if I can't go with a large group of people with whom I feel comfortable, I need to be in the seats that are least likely to have the unpleasant things happen. Those also happen to be the most expensive seats, which also becomes a determination. I think what I'll do next year, depending on the economy and my wallet, is get together with 3 or 4 buds and buy 2 or three season tix and alternate who gets to go.

Peter King hasn't watched a football game all year, let alone a Bills game.

Don't misunderstand, I don't think you are a fool on a personal level. I think someone's ideas can be foolish, without that person being a fool.

Oh, so only players in the first three rounds, eh? Do lower draft choices not count, or doesn't it support your silly argument? I'd say that three years of 1,000+ yards is good ROI for Henry. Why is this a bad draft pick? I think it's a damn good one. You're wrong there. Mike Williams has been playing quite well this year. Do you actually *watch* football, or just read Jerry Sullivan columns? Coy Wire - quite a good ST player. Let's see - Josh Reed (a 2nd rounder) replaced with Lee Evans (who happens to be a Donahoe draft pick paying off in his rookie year). Not sure what you are trying to argue here, but you're looking quite foolish. I don't know why you chose not to evaluate lower picks, but I consider those part of a draft. Let's look at a few, can we? 1. Jonas Jennings. Hmmm. He was a 3rd round pick. Why do you neglect to mention him? Hmmm? Maybe because it makes you look foolish? 2. Willis. Looking like a damn good pick, isn't he? Oh, sorry, I forgot that Donahoe stinks at drafting. 3. Aaron Schoebel. Hmmm. Do you have a problem with that pick? 4. Freddie Smith - 7th round. When a 7th round player does well, that tells you something, right? Like maybe Donahoe is good at drafting? 5. There's some guy named Terence McGee on the Bills team. I think he's run for a few TDs. Remind me how many, please. And you might want to check what round he was drafted in, and by who. (Hint: 4th, Donahoe) 6. Nate Clements. Please explain how he's a bad pick. 7. Ron Edwards. 3rd Round. Very good part of the Bills rotation.

Good God. It's well chronicled that the Pitt ownership had no interest in spending money on signing bonuses. Donahoe did damn well with the hand he'd been dealt. I wonder what would have happened if he didn't get Bettis. That was a horrible move, right? Please, please, please show me how bad Donahoe is at drafting. I'd love to see you try and prove that one.

Mini overpaid for Winfield, but I still think he's one hell of a player.

Umm, okay. Who is better, newman or any of our current LBs. Hmmm. Irvin? You've got to be kidding me. Didn't someone pay him a ton of dollars to watch him turn to toast? I'll give you washington. Love that guy. But Pat and Sam are good, as well. Steven, you've backed yourself in a corner again. It's been a long time since you've started your whinefest over old, overvalued players. I thought you were over it. Facts don't support your overly-emotional evaluation of reality.

And who might those people be? Marcellus Wiley? Sam Cowart? Peerless Price? I know you're still bitter at TD for getting rid of the overpriced players who you loved, but it's time to get over it. It's been YEARS, man. The axe has been ground to a nub, don't you think?

Hmm. Eric Moulds ring a bell? Aaron Schobel? I don't know, but I find it hard to imagine that Donahoe would actually think, "Let's see, I don't want to resign my player even if he's good, so I'll find a bargain." I just don't see it.

A success at everything, with the exception of humility I guess.

Harrison came out the same year Moulds did.

Ice is right. We friggin blow.

The 49rs are truly one of the worst teams in NFL history. They are horrible. The Bills could beat them with Burns at RB.

I thought, therefore, I was.

I'm in if I get over my current mung.

I'll second that.

Bwaaa haaa! I'm sure that was too easy, but great post, Dan!

Not only that, every good game Drew has sends Ice into more of a nonsensical rampage. Hilarious.

Ice, you are out of your friggin head. I don't see how you can call Donahoe a moron, unless of course you are a moron yourself.

Hey Ice, it's time to grow up.

He calls Bledsoe "Humpty." How can he be unbiased. He's a dink.
