Rubes

Kinda reminds me of what they were saying about Flowers. Oh God, what a disaster that was.

Well, at least it's not another thread about Turner. For that, I give it a big

AND we're getting healthified right before the playoffs begin. Here's to the boys putting on a good show over the next couple of months.

Cool, maybe they'll all find Lombardi trophies under their seats.

Y'all just remember that thread when your daughters reach college age. Then you won't have to wonder what they're doing with their "study time".

You can say that again...you seem to have returned with a vengeance.

I'm predicting that Willis and AP will both be gone before #12, and that the Bills will not move up to get either. If one of them is available, then I'll be wrong, but I'll also be happy. 1. Marshawn Lynch 2. Move back up into the first round to grab Poz That's my prediction and I'm sticking with it.

Because as he walked so indiscreetly by the pow-wow, I'm betting Ralph, Marv, Dick, and Jim all glanced up at him at the same time with that "Can I help you?" look on their faces. My guess is he proceeded to slink away into the shadows, which he later referred to as "not waiting around to hear the reply."

Hey, if Gaughan can say this in his blog: He's cool in my book. I'll read it.

I haven't seen this mentioned before, but since Chris Brown's blogs are a welcome read in the offseason (and during the season as well), thought I'd put this out there for people who just can't get enough Bills information from the dudes at the Buff News. Feel free, of course, to either provide or withhold your opinions on those guys, I don't really care. There's a Bills Blog there, manned by Gaughan and Wilson (and apparently Sullivan, though I don't know if he's done any). Updated pretty frequently, too. And, it gives the opportunity to comment on the blogs. Here's the latest, from Gaughan: Just in case you haven't seen it and have any interest in it, the "BillBoard" can be found here. Apologies if this was already mentioned or obvious.

My head is spinning. I don't understand it, but get 'er done, Marv!

It would certainly be fun if Spragan and Haggan could line up for us at LB together.

Ugh. Another offseason hearing about how Levy "reached" for a player at #12 that he could have traded down for and picked up some more draft picks. I can't wait.

I'm now expecting to see a series of "news" stories on the TBD front page tomorrow discussing the Bills' reported interested in trading for Briggs.

Can't tell...without seeing his number, they all look alike to me.

This is what I don't get. He's going to be their #3. I'll repeat it again: He's going to be their #3. What in the world does he have to be excited about? And why are Philly fans getting so worked up about getting an expensive third-string QB? I'll take a 7th round pick over that. Much less expensive and he'll see the field about as much.

What about Turner for swapping second round picks?

Kind of interesting how Triplett and Walker are 293 and 294, while Williams and McCargo are 306 and 307. Not sure why I find that interesting, but there you have it.

Actually, that's precisely what I'd expect to see...

I still stand by my assessment that the net result of our FA gains and losses is not as bad as it might superficially appear. While it may be true that we don't currently have two LBs to replace the two we lost, you also have to take into account what we have gained so far if you want an overall assessment.

Crazy...I haven't even heard of the Puck...where's that?? I haven't been making trips to see Sabres playoff games, just catching them when they're on nationally -- mostly because I don't know if places will even show hockey games. But I think Port O'Call would probably be open to it as long as they have access to the games. I think it would be fun to watch some Sabres with other Buffalo fans -- it's hard enough to find Bills fans around here. And yes, I'm originally from Amherst...

No kidding! I didn't realize there were many other Bills fans here. My uncle and I hit Port O' Call for the games every Sunday, so you're welcome to join us unless you know of other gatherings around town. Salt Lake is definitely the 'least' Mormon part of the state, but it's still around 45% Mormon. There has been a big influx of non-Mormons in the 10 years or so that I've been here. It has been very noticeable.

Holcomb is a decent guy, no need to hate. But what really makes me chuckle is how much love he's getting from Philly, as though getting him really makes that trade a big bonus for Philly. I mean, seriously. He's going to be the 3rd string QB. If you have to go to your 3rd string QB, you have issues. And is Holcomb *really* that excited to go to a team where he will be virutally assured of holding a clipboard for the rest of his career?

Not that I would necessarily do this, but it sure would be interesting if the Bills used the two 3rd rounders they got for Willis to acquire Turner...

First, Salt Lake City elects a liberal Democratic mayor who goes on trips to Washington state and Washington D.C. promoting the impeachment of Bush. He's even scheduling a live show-down debate with Sean Hannity to debate the Iraq war and his call for Bush's impeachment. Now, we're hearing about how students and faculty at ultra-conservative BYU are petitioning to block Dick Cheney from delivering their commencement speech. They told me this place was strange, but I had no idea.
