He said the refs blew a pass interference call on Ray Lewis, so he threw it waiting for the refs call. Drew: This ain't New England where they'll just give it to you. What a sorry excuse for that int. JP, JP, JP

We should have traded Travis
Albany,n.y. replied to KurtGodel77's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So Miami is going to just give us the 1st pick in the whole draft for Travis Henry. Henry's agent is at it again. The only way Miami would have made that trade is if Ralph & TD had some compromising photos of Wayne Huizenga. -
What I think the Bills should aim for at RB
Albany,n.y. replied to Fake-Fat Sunny's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I can't see Travis here beyond this season because he is scheduled to be a free agent after 2005 & I can't see any responsible agent telling him to sign an extension with the Bills. From the Bills point of view, they have to trade him this offseason in order to get anything back for him. From TH's part, any trade would include a contract extension at #1 RB $. He's more likely to be playing next season with a nice signing bonus in his pocket from his new team. -

For those of you who missed it...

I didn't catch it when he did it, but they replayed it on the scoreboard & my first reaction was he made me laugh so hard the 15 yards were worth it. -

OUCH! I'm agreeing with the Cons! If you are too stupid to find out where you vote, maybe you shouldn't be voting. I've moved a few times & at it's been pretty easy for me to find out where the voting is being held. Unless you're voting in a town that moves your polling place & doesn't notify you of the move, you really have no excuse. If you're not sure a simple phone call before election day will get you the answer. The last time my voting place was changed (this year) the town sent me a postcard telling me it was moved from Town Hall to the library, no problem.

First off, I know nothing about mechanical things, including cars, but I've had something similar when the clutch went on my standard transmission on a 1986 Mazda. When the clutch is slipping, the engine revs with no acceleration. I imagine if the car has an auto transmission, the equivalent of a slipping clutch would do the same thing.

(OT) Boston v. NY Game 5 Thread
Albany,n.y. replied to CosmicBills's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The curse is falling upon the Bosox big time. 1st Ump blows call at 2nd base. Now Sheffield Ks & makes it to 1st. 13th inning man -bad news (for Boston) -
Stats don't tell the story. EVERY time the Bills have had to suck it up on D with less than two minutes left in the half, the other team has either scored a touchdown (Jax, NE end of 1st half to tie, Mia end of 1st half to go ahead) or gained enough yards to kick the game winning FG (Jets). Until they can stop a team in crunch time, they should not even be considered a good defense. Willis & the running game is the only thing that saved this D from being tested yesterday because we held the ball the last 6+ minutes & Miami never got to try to tie against what I consider a very suspect D.
-
I got home a half hour ago, too tired to read all the other posts. I hope I'm not the only one who is going crazy over the 2 minute D. Once again we give up points in the last 2 minutes of the half. Fortunately at the end of the game Willis & Company made sure we didn't let our 2 minute D on the field. That drive at the end of the 1st half makes 4 of 5 games that we've folded our D in a 2 minute drill. This must stop!

What you talkin' bout, Willis?!?!?
Albany,n.y. replied to ***PetrinoInAlbany***'s topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don't know if you could see it on TV, but those 1st few runs they kept pitching it to him about 5 yards behind the LOS. He was running about 6-7 yards but they only counted 1-2 yards. Once they stopped that and started to hand it off normally his yds per carry went up. Most impressive thing was he was carrying tacklers with him for extra yardage throughout, & unlike Henry never fumbled the ball as he pressed on for the extra yardage. -
If the plan is to make Haddad the punt returner & keep Nate Clements off the special teams, I'm 100% in favor of this week's moves. Haddad had a great preseason a couple of years ago returning punts for Indy. Another plus is getting Sam Aiken on the field enough to evaluate whether Josh Reed should be demoted to #4. If this all works out Haddad returns punts, Aiken moves up to #3 and Clements is safe & not risking injury on punt returns. Everyone wins except Josh Reed, who is getting closer to the waiver wire.

Is OJ really going to the game Sunday?

Howard Simon said it on his show yesterday. -
Some QB Gems: "When I heard Buffalo drafted me, I cried" "We want Marangi" "The Bills have a great young quarterback, Dennis Shaw" "He just wins" "Rob Johnson is on fire" "Rob Johnson is hurt...again" "The Bills have traded Daryl Lamonica..." " Hobert, get in the game" " Joe Dufek will start in place of Ferguson" " Bruce Mathison named starter" " Bills acquire QB Ferragamo" "Schlicter enters the game"

McCardell was born on January 6, 1970-He's almost 35 years old!!!!!!! Why other than someone mentioned this on the Simoncast & Howard shot him down, would anyone think a trade for a 34+ yo receiver, when Moulds & Evans are on the team & are not holding out for more $, makes any sense. Unless you are the one who brought it up to Simon, show some originality instead of rehashing stupid trade possibilities from other people.

Bledsoe is a starter for at least 5 more seasons..

Albany,n.y. replied to AirBledsoe11's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
When Fergy was all done he hung around for a while with other teams. Also tried a comeback in the CFL when they teams in the USA. If Bledsoe wants that instead of going home to his family, so be it. He doesn't need the money. If Drew keeps playing like he has for almost 2 years now, he won't be in position to demand anything. -
2008 Presidential Election
Albany,n.y. replied to OnTheRocks's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Just like George W, you are in denial of reality. Presidential term limits only apply to Presidents who serve 2 terms. In 2008 Bush, like his father will be able to run. What the polls are not showing is that there have been a ton of young people registering to vote, very close to the deadline. They are registering because, true or not, 50% of people who would be drafted believe that Bush will bring back the draft. Even if he wouldn't, they believe he will. The polls of registered & likely voters have overlooked this voting block and if they were included, everyone would see Kerry is ahead by a comfortable margin. -
Why We Are Really In Trouble For 2005
Albany,n.y. replied to San-O's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don't agree with the above statements. This team was not built to be winning now. It was built to win last year under the premise that Bledsoe would be good. However, TD hedged his bets and actually eyed 2005 when the team collapsed last year. His original plan was for this to be the year but actions indicate this year was meant to be a throwaway rebuild year with an eye to be a major contender in 2005. Here's why I believe this He hired a rookie head coach from a different organization. A team planning to be a major contender does not bring in a rookie head coach. Even the great ones didn't do much in their 1st year. Look at the great coaches & most had a tough rookie year. TD knows this, the Mullarchy hire was a step backwards, preparing for 2005 & beyond. He drafted the QB of the future so he wouldn't have a rookie starting in 2005. If you think they thought Bledsoe was anything more than 50-50 to come back, why trade so much to get Losman. If Bledsoe could beat the odds, they would be a playoff contender, if not start Losman in the second half (plan before he broke his leg). This move screams a sacrifice of 2004. Figured Willis would not be 100% to start 2004 & kept Henry to carry the load. Once again, this move screams rebuild. The bounty for trading Henry will be realized in 2005, the target date of the turn around, not 2004, the rebuilding year. The plan has always been to trade Travis Henry, not Willis McGahee. Cut Ruben Brown. There was no way they would find a player who would be as good as Ruben this year. If they were planning on winning Ruben would have stayed. He burned his bridges with Gregg's staff, not Mullarchy's. Didn't add anything in free agency. Only brought in players to replace departed ones. Didn't try to upgrade the team through free agency. Wait until this offseason. I believe they'll be as aggressive as 2003. -
2008 Presidential Election
Albany,n.y. replied to OnTheRocks's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Hillary will NEVER be the Democratic Party nominee for President. Every time you hear someone metion Hillary it's either a Conservative trying to fire up the base or a Liberal with no political horse sense. Nobody who knows politics actually would believe Hillary would be nominated for anything nationally. She's too polarizing to be anything other than a regional candidate. Her act sells in NY, not the nation-why do you think she chose to run for senate in NY-it was a winnable race. Running for POTUS is not winnable, she knows it & so do the Democrats. As for the Republicans, everyone seems to be overlooking the obvious candidate-George W. Bush. -
WOW, seriously....the more you think about it.....
Albany,n.y. replied to CentralVaBills's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The D in the "2 minute drill" time has been horrendous. In 3 of 4 games, late scores before the half or at the finish have killed us. Jacksonville-Team allows Jacksonville to march down field at the end of the game, directly resulting in a loss. New England-Team allows NE to score touchdown to tie the game right before halftime, giving NE momentum which results in Bills' loss in 2nd half of game. NY Jets: Team allows Jets to win game after they get into field goal range. In 75% of our games, when time came for the D to put up or shut up they allowed the other team to mount game winning or game altering drives. I'll say it now: At the end of the season, do not give Gray's a new contract. Make Krumrie Defensive Coordinator.
