The guy has some talent, but this sounds more like a temporary replacement for Caussin. Marrone is probably doing the guy a favor by getting him some camp exposure, and maybe some team will put him on their practice squad. Sounds like the Bills are already set at TE, probably with Chandler, Smith, and Gragg.

Damn, I was wondering what took you so long. So when is someone going to start labeling him as "injury prone"?

Best of luck with that, NG. I can't imagine what you're going through.

This is good news.

11-3

Actually, based on his size, I'd say he's more like Jabari Greer 0.5.

Good thing Graham, Harrington, and Maiorana didn't take jobs in a place like NYC if they get so defensive and irritated by the public that easily.

Sounds like the coach trying to motivate those two more than anything else.

Awesome stuff, thanks again Astro. But nothing about EJ? Chandler had a scheduled day off today. I'm more concerned about Elliott...sounds like he was having a great camp to this point. (But not that concerned.)

...which still would have been followed up with subsequent questions.

Like K-9 said, it really wasn't a big deal. The problem is what happened afterward. I respect JW for taking the high road in the aftermath, but the blogs, tweets, and articles that followed from guys like Graham, Harrington, and Maiorana was unfortunately not very flattering to them.

Fantastic writeup. Thanks!!

I find it interesting that the whole reason for this story is that Marrone became irritated and defensive, and now we're seeing the local media getting irritated and defensive from the backlash.

Horrible drafting, particularly in the first round, surely didn't help.

WR. I've heard him mentioned a few times, saw a couple pics of him making catches. Seems to be solid, but not spectacular. I'm getting really excited about this WR corps. If TJ is really improving like we're hearing, and Woods is a stud like people say, we're looking good with some keys guys backing them up.

Oh my. After putting that in Google Maps, I realize I've actually seen a game there once. In fact, it was the Flutie vs. Johnson game after Doug was cut and signed by San Diego. Bastards beat us 27-24, as I recall. In the end, of course, it made little difference -- the Chargers improved to 5-2 after that game, but didn't win a single game the rest of the season, so there's always that solace. That was October 2001, twelve years ago! Thanks for the reminder, I'll be looking forward to it!

I'm going to be in San Francisco the week we play Cleveland on Thursday night (October 3rd). Is there a place Bills fans in SF gather for games, even if it's a Thursday night game? I'd love to hang out and watch the game with Bills fans rather than by myself at random sports bar.

Matrix parts 2 and 3 are, for me, on par with Star Wars Episodes I-III. Horrifically bad sequels that took great, simple, classic storylines and made them so !@#$ing convoluted and confusing that nobody could tell anymore what the hell was happening or why. That, combined with absolutely **** dialogue. Those scenes in Matrix 2 and 3 that take place in Zion, especially with the Kid, are so god awful they make me want to violently retch. The worst part is, anytime I'm surfing channels and I see one of those on, I have to watch. Yeah, I have that much self loathing.

Congrats. So are you going to tell everyone how you did it so the next guy doesn't have to ask again?

Damn this is good stuff. I'm lovin it, thanks.

That's a great list, thanks!

Love it...thanks so much, Mike. MOAR PLEEZ

Thanks, man. This **** is like crack.

Thanks everyone for the Twitter feeds.

Where are you all getting this info from?
