BillsPride12

I understand the coulda woulda shoulda argument...I mean why didn't the Portland Trailblazers draft Michael Jordan instead of Sam Bowie? Didn't they want to win 6 championships? But in the Bills case it is not a good enough excuse. When your team has failed to make the playoffs for 11 straight years and counting and you have continually mis-evaluated players potential at the NFL level year in and year out you have problems with your scouting department/front office! I cannot believe how many people try to defend the Bills drafting over the years with a "Well it is what it is" "You never know how a guy is gonna turn out at the time you draft him" attitude. These guys are professionals and they are getting paid the big bucks to recruit players who can make this team successful. Its amazing to me that this front office has not been completely gutted by Ralph Wilson(then again who knows where his head is at this point). Do you think its just a coincidence that during our glory years when Bill Polian was here he happened to draft Jim Kelly, Bruce Smith, Andre Reed, Thurman Thomas, Darryl Talley, etc...do you guys think that was just luck or maybe just maybe do you think he actually knew how to do his job?

I think alot of you guys are taking the office jargon too seriously. Its just small talk so people can make friendly interaction with each other inside the office, it does get repetitive but you spend 40 hours a week with these people. Your not always gonna stop and have in depth conversations with everybody. I can't believe this angers so many of you...oh well it is what it is Lol

I've noticed the phrases "You would!" "He would!" have become obnoxiously popular with the younger crowd when describing something somebody did. That drives me crazy

Rooting for GB all the way...great, great football fans

These wrestling promos are hilarious, I forgot how over the top that stuff was.

These WWF videos are cracking me up, great laughs this morning!

Haha that was very WWF-esque, all it needed was some Mean Gene Okurland

And I'll be watching all four games this weekend!

No cool Bills stories, I did meet Marv Levy before but it was at a staged book signing , but my best brush with greatness was shaking hands with and getting an autograph from Dave Chappelle at a Knicks game at the garden. In fact he autographed my ticket stub. Dude looked higher than a kite

I watched all 4. I love playoff time even though the Bills are never in it. I like to make the playoff weekends an event, I usually invite people over for some beers and then I'll order some pizza or wings or sometimes I'll just throw some stuff on the grill. Usually put some money on the games too once the playoffs start. Only bet on the Jets game this past weekend and made a small $50 but it'll pay off the money I spent on pizza, wings, and beer.

Luck has been nothing but a major pain in the ass for our draft plans, the only way we would benefit from him staying in school is if we completely bomb next season and finish with the #1.

One of my co-workers had recommended the movie Bachelor Party to me, its a mid 80's Tom Hanks comedy, so I watched it last night and got me thinking of a good thread idea. What is the best on sceen bachelor party? And what is the best bachelor party movie? I was gonna make it a poll but honesty couldn't think of too many off the top of my head. You have The Hangover, Tomcats, Beer League had a pretty funny bachelor party but thats not what the movie was focused on, etc....lets hear your favorites

Agreed. Young was a gamer for sure

I never go out to bars on New Year's eve but like going to house parties. One of my good friend's is having one this year so thats where I'll be, gonna start the holiday off by going to see The Fighter this afternoon. Happy New year's everybody

To put it in perspective I was in Chicago a couple weekends ago which is the 3rd largest city in the U.S. and it was a ghost town there on a sunday night as well! I was pretty surprised at that because even though it was a sunday night and the weather was pretty bad earlier in the day you would still think there'd be some life in some bars just due to the sheer numbers of the people there. And this was a sunday where the Bears had a home game(granted they did get destroyed by the Patriots which may have also contributed to nobody being in sight)

My favorite memory from a Bills-Patriots game over the past 7 years is chanting STROKE at Tedy Bruschi while we were already blown out of the game by halftime.

"The world really is coming to an end. The NFL has cancelled and rescheduled two games in past two weeks due to weather"- Darryl Talley, source: Twitter

If only we had 10 more of him out there, I love this kid and his desire so much. Exactly the kind of guy I want playing for my team!

I also get annoyed when people think of Lombardi as a raving lunatic who yelled at his players and put him in the same category as a Rex Ryan, etc. and don't think of him as a players coach. Nowadays people automatically think of a Dick Jauron when they think of a players coach. The players loved Vince Lombardi(and alot of them said he was a father figure to them). Vince actually cared about his players too, it was just that he demanded everything they had from them which is again stuff you don't see anymore. Lombardi was passionate and demanding but he did genuinely care about his players.

I watched this the other night and it was excellent! They don't make football coaches like that anymore sadly, even the NFL is so much different. I learned about sports from my grandfather growing up(and he was another old school, tough SOB...he was a great local amateur boxer and could've boxed professionally if he didn't join the military) and while watching this it made me remember why I fell in love with this sport to begin with. Its hard to keep it in perspective nowadays with the way the game and player's attitudes have changed so much. This is a must watch documentary for any diehard football purists, it will definitely get you fired up and make you wanna run outside and tackle somebody lol.

Love the team but sure as **** not happy with them over the past 11 years

In that particular movie Lou Reed is portrayed as an icon to the kids in it(one kid claims he had a guitar session with lou to impress chicks) but more importantly it uses a bunch of his songs in the background. That and its actually a great movie. Very different from the way it was advertised, think alot less like Superbad and alot more like Dazed and Confused.

I dig Lou Reed. I didn't really know much about him at all until Trainspotting came out which used "perfect day" and then I did some research on him and found some other good stuff. If your a big Lou Reed fan you should check out the movie Adventureland

I guess I was hoping to see a repeat of last night's game(which was awesome) but that must've been asking for too much haha
