Does anyone still support EJ or Hackett?
Saint Doug replied to NextYearGuys's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I still support EJ, even though I really don't know if he'll succeed. I just think he's too young to write-off. Remember when we drafted him and the Bills brass was describing him as a 3-4 year project? I guess they've changed their minds and are panicking due to the new ownership. If that's true, then it would make little sense to have EJ starting in a few weeks. -
I disagree with some of the best WRs in the NFL part though. Plus, he'll be protected by a porous OL and have no legitimate RB besides a 34 year-old.

How Has Orton Looked Since He Was Signed?
Saint Doug replied to Prickly Pete's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I just look at these photos and find it amazing me was playing organized football at the time. It's cool and all, but he looks just like some fat drunk bum. Just the type I would like to hang with. -
FCC is expected to dump blackout rule today
Saint Doug replied to papazoid's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The difference is the US govt is holding all the cards and the NFL isn't. If the NFL wants to continue having its favorable antitrust status, they'll need to play along. -
Wouldn't it be ironic if the Colts cut him?
-
Has it ever happened this way though? Has a "QB of the future" been named starter for his 1st and 2nd seasons (excluding those who had to play due to injuries), benched for 1-2 years, and came back to be decent? The way I see it, once you anoint him the starter, it's kind of hard to go backwards.
-
This thread seems like a moot point now, with no QB to throw to our WRs and all...it wouldn't have actually mattered if we cut or kept Megatron at this point.

INteresting poINt. Maybe we do wIN a prize. -
Aikman 1-15 in his first year.
Saint Doug replied to TC in St. Louis's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This is like stepping into a time warp. What does Aikman's 1st year have to do with anything? I'm assuming it's an EJ thread, but isn't EJ in his 2nd year? -
Give Chan a call to control offense
Saint Doug replied to rcatty's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I would love Chan as OC. Now that was an exciting offense, plus he is fairly good at guiding QB's to success. -
Will Pegula Cough Up the Big Bucks for a Big Name HC?
Saint Doug replied to patfitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
People need to lay off EJ. He had one fairly poor outing against a team who also shut down Russell Wilson and company. His 2 other games were pretty good. Marrone and his coaching staff, otoh, were ill-prepared for last Sunday's game. -
McCoy was never an OL coach and likely would never admit he knows more about OL coaching than D'Alessandris. You also read our HC is an OL guru and that doesn't look to be the truth.
-
Yep. Can't keep a guy around that could potentially show you up.
-
These are simple growing pains. EJ learns from this and starts next week. Plus, look how many years it took for Rivers to become a decent QB.
-
This is true. It is engrained in our society that a dog that has attacked is likely a pit bull. This is further fueled by media misreporting that will just insert that breed into their story to sell more papers or get more clicks. The truth is, it's very hard to determine breed more often than not: http://nationalcanineresearchcouncil.com/breed-identification-1/

Another horrible website. Dogs bite.org was created by Colleen Lynn, who was bitten by a pit bull while jogging in June 2007. As a highly biased source, you'll read all sorts of anecdotes on that website, but a dearth of facts. Here's Colleen's story: http://btoellner.typepad.com/kcdogblog/2010/03/the-truth-behind-dogsbiteorg.html What are you going to quote next, PETA? Here's another piece containing scientific facts: http://nationalcanineresearchcouncil.com/uploaded_files/tinymce/Schalke.pdf

Their "reputation" is a stereotype fuel by fear and the media. As for their attraction, you will never get a more loyal dog breed. They will run through a brick wall for you. Plus, they are incredibly smart. As for the liability...I can produce a list the length of my arm of liabilities professional athletes should avoid. Owning a dog (yes, it's just a dog) would be at the bottom of the list.

You do know that website is run by lawyers, don't you? I guess they succeeded with you - making you scared and likely to sue if bitten. In addition, for every pit bull bite or attack, there is another by another breed you never hear about. A pit bull attacks someone...front page news or good reading on a sensationalist website. A lab attacks someone...you'll never hear about it. Plus, there's a staggering amount of scientific studies that have shown pit bulls are no more aggressive than any other breed of dog, leading to both the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior (AVSAB) and the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) to issue a position statement against Breed Specific Legislation. The AVMA statement can be seen here, which is excellent literature for educating the public: http://avsabonline.org/uploads/position_statements/Breed-Specific_Legislation-download-1.pdf The AVMA is hardly a biased source of facts. Here is a report from the American Temperment Test Society: http://atts.org/breed-statistics/ Go to American Pit Bull Terrier and Anerican Staffordshire Terrier. Their rates of aggression are no different than most breeds - less than average aggression. Here is a very recent study by the University of Bristol in the UK that surveyed 14,000 dog owners. Breed was not found to be a predictor of aggression: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S016815911300292X

This was an absolutely fantastic video. I've been critical of him before, but do to his advocacy of pitties, he goes up 100 notches in my book. This guy can do no wrong. Beautiful dog. I got 2 myself.

Rookie WR stats after 2 games - Sammy in the lead
Saint Doug replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Perhaps a better stat would be WR's yards divided by yards thrown by his QB. -
Keenan Allen chargers stud WR hurts groin
Saint Doug replied to Webster Guy's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If someone besides Kelly said that, that would have earned them a warning point. Plus, considering the sensitivity of the issue, it really isn't funny. -

Matt Miller hates the Bills - Update: just hates EJ
Saint Doug replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Don't worry guys, for hating on the Bills, he has been taken care by the Democratic People's Republic of North Korea: http://news.yahoo.com/n-korea-sentences-american-six-years-labour-camp-092042291.html -
How will Henderson hold up this week against Wake?
Saint Doug replied to Bocephuz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Wake who? -
I have to admit, he was throwing some awful nice balls all day. That one in the 1st quarter to Sammy dropped right between his hands - thrown perfectly.
