Now I'm really getting ill, we ended up with Mike Willams instead

I hope the people who were gleeful last Christmas Eve still have that feeling of euphoria. Meanwhile, back in the real world, the New York Jets have the anchor of their O-line in D'Brick-the guy we would have drafted if we had lost at Cincinnati. Have another eggnog, and keep that Cincy win euphoria alive!

Look at the combined records of the teams those players play for and you'll understand why they are the leaders. Only Miller gets an exemption from the all "They're always kicking off against my team" team.

I don't ever want a Bill to lead the league in kickoff return yards. I'd rather have the Bills' lead the league in fewest kickoffs by opponents.

Sort of like asking the question why the NFL has banned the Bills from the opponents' endzone?

It's because the same excuses that were made why the Bills should stick with Rob Johnson are now being made for JP Losman. Dig up the old RJ posts from the late 90s/early 00s and its the same s**t, different QB.

The Kelly injury he remembers is from the Super Bowl that same season. Sadly there was no miracle Frank Reich comeback, as we lost 52-17.

If you want to dredge up ancient history, how about McCain? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keating_Five

They just showed the tape on NBC news. He refused the money & was never charged with anything. Knowing how FOX news works, they'll probably edit the refusal out of the tape.

According to the local sportscast WNYT 13, & KFFL: Patriots | Team signs Testaverde Tue, 14 Nov 2006 14:47:51 -0800 ESPNews reports the New England Patriots have signed QB Vinny Testaverde (Jets). Details of the contract were not disclosed. Here's the ESPN link: http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2662075

A lot of money to pay the top pick in the 2008 draft.

$2,464,000 in dead space if we cut him. According to Clumpy's page, he had $3,696,000 in dead space if he was cut this year with 3 years left on the bonus of $1,232,000 per year. So with 2 years left it's $2,464,000. This means his original signing bonus was $6,160,000.

I can see it now, Baltimore has clinched their playoff spot & has nothing to play for, so they start Boller & Madden conducts a clinic all night on how not to play QB in the NFL.

When Rob Johnson was here I was making excuses for him just like the Losman supporters are making for him now. It's the same stuff all over again! Give him time, you can't give up on a QB after only XX games! He can learn not to hold onto the ball too long. Just because he's from SoCal, doesn't mean he can't play in Buffalo He tries so hard. He's a nice guy. The other guys have no long term future with the Bills. He needs a better Offensive Line. The only difference is JP doesn't let us out of our misery like Rob did, because he's more durable. We won't be fooled again.

Davis is one of our best ST players

No, but we'd have hope that he's going through rookie growing pains. Marv preferred Cutler anyway, so we'd be growing with Cutler if Marv had jettisoned JP. The point is many of us have seen enough of JP to come to the conclusion that the Bills will NEVER have a winning record with JP as QB. He is an inadequate player who does not appear to have the necessary intangibles to succeed as a starting QB in the NFL . There can only be 2 reasons for the team not turning to Nall: 1) He hasn't shown enough in practice to indicate he has any potential to be a successful starting QB in the NFL 2) The coaches have some pipe dream that with improved talent around him, JP would be playing like a legitimate NFL QB, and plan on keeping him as next year's starter. Put me in the JP is a bust column, I've seen enough.

Take a look at how Jim Ballard dominated in college & then try to remember his time with the Bills. No way that low a level player starts as a rookie, odds say he's a developmental project at best. Edit: I just looked him up, he's 5-11 190 lbs-forgetaboutit! http://www.esu.edu/athletics/fb04/jterwilliger04.htm

What younger TEs? Kevin Everett is worthless & will never develop into anything but a former NFL player and Neufeld is no youngster to develop.

The Colts just scored.

Willis might have some trade value. Right now, unless he has a great 2nd half, Takeo has no trade value, and if he does have a great 2nd half, we're crazy to let him go.

I didn't want to chance a snowstorm or drive for a long time on the night of New Year's Eve. I figured that for $285 including a motel for Saturday night, it was worth flying. If I had to do it again, I'd probably drive, since I found out I can't bring anything into the stadium & if I drove I could have brought a suitcase.

I figured if there was a delay, I'd still get home the same day. I didn't expect them to move my flight 4 hours forward. I'm now leaving at 8:55 & I'll have a lot of spare time. I'll be waiting hours at the airport now, because I'll probably hop on the MTA light rail to the airport shortly after the game. They run about 9 trains between the time the game ends & my flight. At least I should have no trouble getting to the airport on time, I know I was cutting things close, but I always figured on booking the earliest flight out because of delays. Now I don't have to rush out of the stadium so in the long run it probably is better & I've learned a few things since yesterday.

This summer I booked a round trip flight to Baltimore for the Bills/Ravens 12/31 game with my return flight leaving BWI at 6:34 pm. I got home yesterday and I had received an e-mail from Expedia telling me that something in my trip had been changed & Expedia accepted the change in my behalf. When I called Expedia to learn what the change was, the computer voice indicated that the status had been changed to booked. I figured it was just some accounting thing, but I answered that I wanted to hear my entire itinerary just to play it safe. It turns out they changed my 6:34 departure to a flight leaving Baltimore around 2:30. Needless to say, that didn't work for me. WTF are they thinking? I book an evening flight out of Baltimore on Sunday after arriving on Saturday and they can't figure out that I might need to be in Baltimore Sunday afternoon. I called last night & the person on the phone indicated he'd try to get me a 7:30 pm flight out of Baltimore & they would probably notify me within a few hours. I didn't get any message so I called back & nothing had been done! I called back & after close to 1/2 hour, I finally was able to get them to book me an 8:55 pm flight out of BWI. Now I have to wait another day to confirm that the flight was actually changed, since the turnaround time on their website is 24 hours. In the future, I won't be booking anything with Expedia where I only am staying 1 night and they have an opportunity to screw things up this badly. I've had flights changed where I'm leaving after my business or pleasure is done, but a planned 30 hour stay leaves too little room to have a major screwup occur if they change things on you. Just a warning to all, if you're booking months in advance for a football game where you're coming to town, staying one night & then leaving shortly after the game, Expedia & similar agents might not be the best choice. It might be better to book with a travel agent who understands the purpose of your flight & won't change it to the middle of the game.

Most companies don't draft employees. Most companies don't give signing bonuses. Most companies don't have a depth chart Most companies don't have a work day list of 8 paid inactives. Playing in the NFL cannot be compared to being employed by "most companies"

Do you really think Dwight Drane was better than Henry Jones by the end of the 1991 season?
