It needed to happen. The one thing that strikes me though is I feel bad for Gailey. He did a terrible job, but he genuinely seems like a good guy.

Scribo, you are quick

The Bills inability to capitalize on it.

The recent management situation has been such a cluster, I can see wanting to attach as many "feel good" connections to the glory years as possible. Even if it was in some type of "organizational adviser" capacity. I personally don't think he is involved in anything that is transpiring, but he would know if something is happening.

I've stopped caring about the strength of schedule going into a season. This year was supposed to be soft. The Bills were supposed to challenge for the playoffs.

I wouldn't.... i didn't say I wanted him to be a figurehead, just that if he was involved, that would be all he was.

I can understand Kelly maybe being involved, but Thurman would be a figurehead only. He DOES NOT have the $$ to be any kind of player in this.

This would make selling tickets like shooting fish in a barrel for Brandon. I'm skeptical as heck, but i'll be tuned in tomorrow.

I just checked the Buffalo Niagara airport website, there is a plane coming in from NYC tonight, I wonder who is on it.

However in classic Buffalo Bills franchise fashion, they will only work in September

Someone needs to tell them we want the 6th pick, not a pick 6.

If Ralph will be in attendance tomorrow, the 40,000 empty seats will be even more powerful now.

Meh.... I'm going skiing Sunday instead. The only thing they get from me is an empty seat.

False: Naaman Roosevelt ‏@nyce18 Thanks everybody but I didn't sign with the pats

http://blogs.buffalonews.com/press-coverage/2012/12/eric-wood-calls-toronto-series-a-joke-i-hope-we-dont-renew-it.html Always loved Eric Wood, now I love him a lot more.

Good solid interior lineman, signed at a fair price. Who could be negative about that?

Starting to look for a mid-sized SUV. 25+ mileage would be good, needs to have some towing capacity for a snowmobile trailer. Sold my 350Z last year for more practicality so i've been ramming around in my old winter car. The wife would get the SUV and I would inherit her 07 Malibu. Just not sure what kind of SUV would fit all the criteria.

Jim Kelly would just be a figurehead of any group that buys the Bills. He doesn't have the capital to buy the team.

So other than his complete lack of interest in coaching, and having no coaching experience.....

When I said this was like a bowl game, I meant my college teams would have beat you too

The Bills do the same thing, the only difference is they have most of their trash cans signed to the 53 man roster.

Debate all you want about how lucid Wilson is. Sit here and discuss what his true intentions are. Those are all debatable, however his track record is not. Mediocre hires into positions of authority within the team. With the exception of a few years of Donahoe, the leadership of the team has always been a bit of puppetry to Wilson. Even when the architect of the winningest portion of the team's history had a different vision, he was dismissed. Ralph might be in the middle of the pack for what he has invested in player contracts, but he has failed to pilot the organization in a straight and true direction. This organization has never had an identity. When you think of the greatness of the Kelly, Thurman, Bruce Bills of the early 90's, it looks like it was the case of a blind squirrel finding a nut. They captured lightning in a bottle for a few years with some superior talent. They sell off a game every year to Toronto when a significant portion of that revenue could simply be generated by not having the stadium named after Ralph. They retread coaches, they retread GM's, but act like they do us a favor by maintaining the lowest prices in the league. What they don't tell you is that you are getting exactly what you pay for, mediocre football that at times borders on dysfunctional, in an old stadium that houses one-less regular season game than it used to. They tell us how hard it is for them to make their $30 million annual profits in a small market, but they don't mind floundering in the obscurity that their mediocrity has created. At the end of the day, all they have to answer to is a few small market reporters who occasionally take them to task in front of a disillusioned audience. There is no Ed Werder camped outside the administration offices on Gailey watch, there is no headline in the USA Today asking what happened to the Buffalo Bills. There is just the silence that is momentarily broken by a few who question the lunacy of it all, only to have it die back down in time for the next check to clear.

I'd have to disagree with anyone saying Suh didn't do that on purpose. Like has already been stated, his foot stopped and forcefully moved in a completely different direction than the inertia of his leg. If you think it was inadvertent, chances are you also believe the Kennedy magic bullet theory.
