  1. Coming out of college, Hunter was a great special teams player, blocking 7 kicks his sr year. I don't know what he's done in Dallas. He's coming to get you, Rian. So we better replace Lindell before its too late.
  2. Not in the NFL, unless you signed a Rickey Williams-like contract, something no agent will ever do again.
  3. "You can get injured or killed by speeding in your vehicle. Getting injured or killed hurts the Dolphins. Unless she gets a gun, beating your B word is harmless to the TEAM." ** ** Reprinted without permission from the Miami Dolphins playbook.
  4. Keep Willis McGahee in a Bills uniform throughout his prime. Sorry, I couldn't resist crossing threads.
  5. Most of the trade Wilis group are forgetting one thing-Willis is going to be the main guy on offense, just like OJ was in the 70's. Ralph has already been through this with OJ and put up with his sh** until he was past his prime & traded him for a lot more than he was worth. Willis will get big $ his next contract, probably after this year and it will be done as a "salary cap saving" contract to avoid a bigger cap hit when his incentives kick in and inflate his 2006 cap #. Anyone who got their season ticket package last week should realize that the team is being marketed as Team Willis and when he has a big year he will be the main attraction. The Bills will be in no position from a PR standpoint to do anything but pay him, just like OJ in his prime. Any trade of Willis is about 5-8 years away.
  6. What Saban said: Dolphins | Saban Issues a Statement Regarding McMichael Tue, 12 Jul 2005 06:49:15 -0700 Jason Cole, of the Miami Herald, reports Miami Dolphins head coach Nick Saban issued a statement regarding the arrest of TE Randy McMichael. ''We certainly don't condone the conduct which has been alleged and we recognize the seriousness of the charges. However, we will not make a specific comment about this matter until we gather more information,'' Saban said. Last month, the team cut backup S Quintin Williams a day after he was arrested for driving 111 mph on I-595 in Broward County. McMichael, a starter, is unlikely to meet the same fate as Williams. What Saban meant: ''We certainly don't condone the conduct which has been alleged and we recognize the seriousness of the charges. However, we're a football team. These are violent criminals which it has taken years to assemble on our roster. I'm more likely to get rid of some pansy Rob Johnson type than a guy who can contribute to my football team. Criminals are more aggressive, and I like aggressive players. Shoot, I knew when I took this job that this team would take any felon that they were not beaten to the punch to by Al Davis. I was told by Wayne 'there are going to be arrests, suspensions and a lot of s*** from these players, if you can deal with it, here's a few million $, if not hit the road college boy'. I'm no college boy I can coach any scum they give me as long as he's got talent. F***, I wish Cecil Collins would get paroled, I'd take him over that laid back Rickey guy."
  7. His father was murdered 7 years after the training camp incident. Sun Oct 1 2000 21:34:17 Joe Parrella, 63 - murdered GRAND ISLAND, Neb. Police investigating slaying of pro football player's father -- (Oregon Live) Authorities were investigating the shooting death of the father of San Diego Chargers player John Parrella but had made no arrests Sunday.
  8. From the letter that came with the tickets: "You should also be aware that we have bar-coded all of our tickets this season and we will be scanning tickets rather than tearing them at the entry gates this year." The 1st time I experienced this was at Continental Arena in NJ. Very efficient.
  9. He'll be gone long before we're picking at #32.
  10. Here are former Bills in the CFL. Most got cut before the season began. The most interesting player is Ed Phillion, a native Canadian who Walt Corey chose to keep over John Parrella. He's the only one to be a Bill longer than 1 season. The biggest name in the CFL is Andre Rison, currently on Toronto's IR/disabled list. Ed Phillion-Montreal Kwame Cavil-Mon Mo Unutoa-Ottowa Moe Elewenibi-British Columbia Jerel Myers -BC Demetrious Maxie -Calgary Doug Brown-Winnipeg Dave Mudge-Win Dave Hack-Hamilton James Cotton-Ham
  11. Here's some photos. You have to click on slideshow in the article. http://www.thewbalchannel.com/irresistible...45/detail.html#
  12. Landetta was cut by the Rams after their horrible special teams day at The Ralph. I heard him on the radio a few months ago saying he's trying to get back in the NFL before camp starts. I don't think anyone has signed him yet.
  13. I had 6 small mice last December (you usually get more than 1, even if you think it's only 1). I set plastic snap traps with peanut butter & some glue traps near. 4 of the 6 got stuck in the glue, 2 were in the snap trap. Before I added the glue traps, one mouse ate all the peanut butter off the snap trap. Mine were in a confined area inside a cabinet where they were getting in and eating my oatmeal & noodles.
  14. I received an e-mail indicating my tickets have been mailed via priority mail. They included a tracking # for me to check their progress.
  15. Was it a preemptive strike because the comet had weapons of mass destruction?
  16. Clayton may be right about Gandy. I'm very skeptical of Gandy. Remember, at this time last year Pucillo was 1st on the depth chart at LG and now he's gone. There's a lot of practices & 4 exhibition games before I'd count on Gandy being our opening day LT. Even if he starts the season, he could end up getting replaced by Tucker, just like Lawrence Smith was last year. The difference being Teague at LT. There's also a chance that Preston could emerge in camp & a line of Teague, Anderson, Preston, Villarial & Williams might be the answer. There are also other options at LT (maybe someone not on the team today), before anyone should pencil in Gandy. I'll believe Gandy as our LT when I see it. I just don't have the same high hopes for Gandy as some others & it wouldn't shock me if he were to go from the #1 LT to riding the pine to gone in 1 year.
  17. I don't believe that the MADD people have any business being there. What are they going to do if a fugitive is stopped & panics. The police are the ones who are trained for this, MADD members aren't. I'm not a big fan of MADD, as they do a lot less than they get credit for. One time they called me up for a donation and I asked them why they don't do more trying to make it impossible to start a car when someone is drunk through more interlock device laws. They gave me an answer that it is very tough to get interlock laws passed and I told them that they were an ineffective group & I wouldn't donate to them. If MADD was truly effective, the death rate due to drunk driving would be close to zero. They've been around long enough to have a better track record on drunk driving than currently exists.
  18. Buffalo Bills wins their 7th straight Super Bowl. 2 weeks before, at the NFC Championship game the announcers say "Who cares who wins this game? Buffalo won the AFC in the early game and they don't call J.P. Losman 'Mr. February' for nothing. The man is going for his 7th straight Super Bowl win and I can't see either of these teams even being competitive."
  19. The real MVP for the Spurs last night was Lindsey Hunter.
  20. Anyone calling for an apology, resignation etc is just another political hack/hypocrite. Seems like every day a Democrat wants a Republican to apologize& resign or a Republican wants a Democrat to apologize&resign. We might be better off if all the politicians apologize for wasting our time and then resign. This is a good column that appears in today's Newsday. http://www.newsday.com/news/columnists/ny-...news-columnists
  21. The kid certainly isn't the brightest bulb of the bunch. Parents taught him not to talk to strangers, so the kid gets lost and hides whenever he hears strangers approaching on the path, jeopardizing his life. I guess his parents never taught him the difference between talking to strangers who initiate something when there's no need and asking for the help of a stranger when you're in dire need of the other person's help. I hope this kid's family never has an accident where he's the only one left awake. He might just be stupid enough to hide under the front seat rather than flag a car down for help. The kid needs to learn some common sense.
  22. This just in: In 2001 Pat thought the Patriots were dead in the water after Drew's injury and was telling NFL Radio that Tom Brady wasn't ready to be a starting QB in the NFL.
  23. No doubt about it. I'd say opening day with either Tucker or The Duke at Center.
  24. The problem was the posts were describing the latest Dolphin player's arrest. Can't have the Dolphins' records exposed on a family oriented website.
