Nostradamus

The logical flaw that both you and the original poster are exhibiting is that TO's statement on Twitter either is definitive as to him leaving after this season, or is completely irrelevant as you make it out to be. In fact, the truth seems to be somewhat in between. His re-emphasizing that he only signed a 1 year deal seems to be indicative of his mind set at the moment; that, at the present time, he can't foresee his stay in Buffalo lasting more than 1 yr. Of course, a lot can change in one year's time, and we have no idea where his head will be at 1 yr from now. However, in an uncapped year where the league's heavyweights may well engage in an arms race to stack their rosters as best as they can for 2010, I think the odds are definitely slim that TO is back next year.

no huddle Well, so much for surprising the Pats on opening day with a new look. What's next, is TO gonna twitter Schonerts whole 2 page offensive playbook? Guess we're gonna be using the no huddle. No wonder Langston Walker isn't happy. No more deep fried twinkies!!

Kind of like being the worlds tallest midget or the prettiest crackwhore on Fillmore and Bailey.

Ellison made 73 tackles?? That is about 70 more than I remember seeing him make last year.

I definitly noticed his eyes twinkle and his lips moisten when that question was posed to him.

Another guard?? Is guard the new cornerback at One Bills drive or what?

It is a common misconception that Losman was a nice guy that just didn't pan out. From the numerous times I saw him out, sometimes on Fridays/ Saturdays before a game, and from first hand stories told to me by girls who encountered him, he was actually an inmature little scumbag. The fact that he picked up some garbage for a day does not mitigate that fact.

Andy "Cialis-Levitre" JP "fries with that burger" Losman Chris "JP, PUT FRIES WITH THAT BURGER" Kelsey Dick "Tales from the Crypt" Jauron James "Dainty" Hardy "38 Magnum" Lynch Derek "Adequate" Fine Keith For the love of GOD, WE NEED FRIES WITH THAT BURGER!! Ellison Langston, "GODDAMIT I SAID SUPERSIZE THOSE FRIES" Walker

With all the needs the Bills have, trading their assets for draft picks is not the way to go. Instead, they should look to package Parrish and a pick for a position player, such as Gonzales or Waters from KC. Maybe Parrish and a 3rd/4th would be enough to get it done?

Because Marv Levy was pretty much incompetent as a GM. Russ Brandon appears to be more fiscally responsible. That is the short answer. The Kelsey disaster than gave rise to the Schobel disaster. That does not mean that since the Bills vastly overpaid those two players, they should continue to make wasteful front office decisions.

Oh good lord. You'd think that Moses came down from the hill and said "Thou shalt not start duplicitious threads." Who cares if this is in one thread or another? It's a great idea, but I think we are drastically overestimating Peters worth. Other teams know that he gave up more sacks than any other tackle in the NFL last season, despite missing significant time. If we can get one 1st rounder for him, I'd be happy. Chances are that if we draft one of the top 3 or 4 tackles with that first rounder-not Andre Smith, we'd be better off than we were last year at that position and have a lot more $$$$ to spend elsewhere.

Why is that sad? Because Buffalo doesn't try to emulate the nightlife scene of bigger cities but instead has its own scene which is more tailored to the markets clientele and population? I know a lot of people from the city that came to Buffalo for college and ended up embracing Buffalo for its differences. Some of them were used to the NYC club life but preferred to be the proverbial big fish in a small pond. Other people turned their noses up at our scene. It is what it is. Personally, I think true partyers and fun-loving people make the most of the environments that they're in. There are definitly a lot of real good-lookin girls on Chipp and other parts of the city as well. I'd be willing to bet TO ends up enjoying it here. It may be different than what he is used to, but he strikes me as a different, more open-minded guy than Mcgahee.

What makes you think he is a good citizen of Buffalo? Because he picked up litter in a PR move one day? I have seen Losman out on several occasions-, including the Friday before he started the Jets game this year- and he was acting more like a drunken idiot than a good citizen. While I don't know him personally, it seems there is a certain segment of Bills fans who take for granted he is a good guy who just didn't pan out. I think the reality is he's an immature punk who didn't have the work ethic or drive to even attempt to be a good NFL QB.

The problem is, this signing makes too much sense for the Bills to actually do it. A cover two linebacker who has spent his whole career in the same type of system the Bills implement? Who plays the position that the Bills are weakest on? (With apologies to Chris Kelsey, I think Ellison may be even more outmatched on the field than the great white Buffalo) Well... maybe not. At any rate, this move, unlike the Coles one, would significantly make the Bills defense better. June is someone the Bills should overspend on if it gets him here.

He ran a 4.39 forty

You do realize that the Bills prevailing theme of incompetence is the dominant topic of conversation, right?? A couple years ago, I was as optimistic as anyone about the teams potential resurgence. That was then. We have regressed. At this point, anyone who is hopeful is delusional. It's sad... but true. Does anyone think Haumgfratsssner is the answer? Seriously??

Bills football: Making dreams come true. If it wasn't for Bills football, most of these guys would be working construction.

Meaning, we all waste a HELL of a lot of time surfin the net checkin mocks out to see which expert got the latest "scoop."

Sabres PR, I mean WGR, has been reduced to nothing more than a bunch of glorified cheerleaders for the Sabres. I think the topic of todays morning show is "who is the hottest Sabre?," followed by the afternoon show (which Sabres penis would you touch?" Don't get me wrong, I am a huge Sabres fan myself. But, the bias they have when covering the Sabres in relation to the Bills is staggering in its blatant disregard for the seemingly outdated journalistic principle of evenhandedness. Further, Mike Schopp is a pompous arrogant condescending prick. Now, it is possible that his producers tell him to show disdain to any callers that don't share his point of view, but that would just make a whore to his network, as well as an arrogant prick. The Bulldog is a lackey, and the show in general is a farce. One quick stipulation: Schopp does have some sports IQ, as he can be insightful when breaking down games. However, that trait is overrided by his other obnoxious characteristics.

Crowell is our de facto best linebacker. He is a smart player with good instincts, but tackles like a pacifist. While he may be a good complementary player in a defense, he lacks the physicality to anchor a unit. That is why it is imperative that the Bills get Patrick Willis in the draft. An all-world middle linebacker is the key ingredient to an elite cover 2 defense.

Depth charts in the offseason don't mean much at all. I think McNally is going to have to do some tinkering in camp before he figures out what they're going to look like. I also thought Pennington looked like a player out there, and with a year's seasoning under his belt, he will be an improved player.

Interesting. Did Ralph throw his one comrade in arms (Mike Brown) and other small market teams under the bus so that the qualifiers favored HIS small market team at the expense of other small markets?? Don't get me wrong, I'm happy about any news that isn't doom and gloom when it pertains to the Bills long term viability in Buffalo. However, while Ralph espoused pure alturistic motives in lauding the pioneer unified spirit that the NFL was founded upon, I would venture to say that his motives are in fact paralell to those of the Jerry Jones and Daniel Snyders of the NFL: to maximize profit in THEIR own markets. This was never us-against them, small markets vs. big markets. This was about each owners independent desire to make as many millions as possible.

BOO YA!! While Michaels shows lacked the dry and condescending wit that is so embedded in sports journalism, he never tried to be someone he wasn't. Not to get political, but Stuart Scott is representative of everything wrong with the concept of affirmative action.

While his only highlight reel play was the season-opener, I thought his play steadily improved throughout the season. Also, Spikes was due to make 4.6 million this year. Fletcher could have been signed for 5 yrs 25 million dollars. Langston Walker is making 5 million a year. Is anyone going to compare Langston Walker as a player to either Spiker or Fletch?? To me, the Walker signing was senseless and has now left us periliously thin at the LB position, as well as at running back. Unless this draft class is going to be one of the best in Bills history, I see this team as being worse than last years unit. I hate to give this doomsday forecast, but the decisionsthis off-season have been nothing short of baffling.

Bills, no question. Look at it from a utilitarian perspective. A Bills win would uplift, our friends, loved ones, and community immeasurably. Also, it would be something that we all can treasure forever. The $10,000 is something I would burn through gambling within a few days.
