Dat True !! and its even worse now that the 2 henchmen are running the whole show.

Do you really think this is true ?? I'll say it again' Buddy Nix's hands are tied by Wilsons bean counters, who call the shots in this stage of Ralph Wilson's life. I doubt we will ever know the full extent of all moves (resigning players)or non-moves (signing FA)by the gang of 3 in Detroit. As long as the veto power continues to come from Detroit, there will never be another GM with the power to spend, spend and spend as Tom Donahoe had, only to end up with shi**y teams. The entrenchment of the Bills organization as a thrift organization began again after Donahoe was fired non-withstanding the big money certain Bills players (again Detroits call)recieved, the Bills are well under the salary cap

Of course it was. There have been so many cost cutting moves by Ralph Wilson in the 50 years I have followed the Bills that I don't have enough fingers and toes to count them all.

Don't blaim Buddy Nix. Cutting Hangartner was srickly a salary dump by the bean counters in Detroit. Nix is operating under restrictions and you can take that to the bank. Buddy knows talent but if he can't get the OK to go after FA's, his hands are pretty much tied. Go back to when Nix was at San Diego. The Chargers were always in the mix for FA and Buddy Nix was at the center in aquiring talent. He comes back to Buffalo and wants nothing to do with signing FA all of a sudden?

ROFLMAO You tickled my funny bone wit dat dem der

Happy Belated Birthday Mead. Hope you have many, many more healthy ones.

Nothing new, Fitz does not have a big enough gun to get the ball downfield before the DB has a chance to close

We have seats in the Paul McGuire Club. Tickets run from $160 to $200+ Tickets in the Jim Kelly Club between the 20 yard lines are even higher. That's why the Bills want to put Club seats between the Paul McGuire and Van Miller Clubs and move the press box to the end zone. I was told that club seat holders in the PM and VM clubs would have first shot by seniority to upgrade their seat location. If this turns out to be true, with my seniority...lookout 50 yardline here I come

You are not far off. They do in fact shine pink lights on the Horseshoe Falls quite often. The whole falls awash in pink

No argument there. Bad drafts all the way back to the late John Butler's last year with the Bills. Buddy Nix was right when he said shortly after re-joing the Bills: "We need talent and we need a lot of it" ..... the remaking of the roster is still a work in progress. As far as Jauron, I give him no pass on nothing. DB DB and undersized LB bust, bust bust ALL first round busts!!!! I'd take a QB over any of that BS garbage; or a DE or a OT. All the first round DB's and our secondary is a joke so ya IM pissed that this club was run like the three stooges for ten years.

Lead feet and is not an instinctive football player and I disagree, he's been a liability on pass D every game, save for his pick. Another first round bust by Jauron. Its going to take Buddy Nix another 2 drafts to just undo the damage done by this a$$clown.

Nope, notice he is outside the gates. People visibly drunk are denied entry and on average about 50 are ejected every game who go over the top with their drinking. The Bills have made it a priority to keep the game day experience enjoyable for all with zero tolerance for drunken or threatening behavior.

Larry is extremely knowledgeable on the great game of football and in particular Bills football. Heck of a nice guy who would always take a minute to talk. I still miss Larry Felser's "Monday Morning Quarterback" show on WBEN every Monday after a game. The Who's Who of Bills player, coaches, GM's and scouts that Felser had invited to be on his show will sadly never be matched by any local radio host. They came on his show because they respected him and knew that Larry knew his stuff and was fair in any criticism that might come their way in either press or print. The three who made on most shows on a regular basis were, Bill Polian, The late John Butler and Buddy Nix

Yep those were Van's words with the "It's fantastic" coming out softer like he was emotionally drained, which we all were BTW. On another note I was really happy to hear that Van Miller was in the press box for this past game against NE and even made a call.

2 years ago was the last time I saw Van Miller. He made an appearance before a joint meeting of the Monday Morning Quarterback Club and the Bills Boosters in the club bearing his name. He was a shell of the Van Miller I had known in the late 80's, early 90's. Very frail and needed much help walking and his voice that we all loved so much was weak and hesitant. I believe that most in attendance that evening realized that this was most likely one of Van's last visits to RWS. I am not aware that Van Miller ever returned again to RWS but it's possible. I hope Van enjoys many happy and peaceful years in The Villages. Nice community BTW. Have been there quite a few times. Oh, and for those wondering about Van Miller going up on the Wall of Fame, I think, knowing Van Miller that he would say, leave it for the guys doing the sweating. He had a soft heart for the guys on the field and loved the game of football. Besides he has one of the Clubs named after him which in itself is quite an honor. I had heard that it was Mr. Wilson that suggested one of the Clubs be named for Van Miller but never really asked around to confirm this. Maybe someday.

Bob good to se you're still kicken. Miss seeing ya before the home games especially opening day at Hammers. Any chance you will be coming back east for any Bills games?

That would be sweet !! Wipe that s*** eating grin off Brady's face.

And I'll add my expertise in quality control

Well that's a name from the past !! Did NJsue just fade away or did she get banned??? I still have the thread bookmarked where she asked for help with her homework and if anyone had a website for calculating currency exchanges. One of the alltime classics here on TBD. BTW NJSue was a nice girl with a big heart. Met her a few times at RWS.

True Dat !! This type of crowd never last for long on "TSW" We both have seen them come and seen them go into the sunset of cyberspace. RELAX people this is PRE-SEASON. I hope just like everyone else that the players Buddy Nix brought in can help Chan and his coaches field a decent team this year. Pre-season games is the time to find out if these young guys have the potential to become solid pro's Same for FA...what do we have?, can he adapt to our system?, how does he react if beat on a play? or makes a play? Team oriented or "ME First" type. Does he point fingers of accept responsibility for not making a play(s)? And finally there is the competition factor. For some vets it's the fear of being demoted and kissing a big payday good-bye and for some it is the thought of riding the pine and playing very little or most likly a combination of both these factors that will push a player. The term "maybe we can light a fire under his a$$" comes to mind. Its the coaches responsibility to figure out what 11 guys on offense, defense and special teams can win games for the Buffalo Bills. That's all that matters. Over the years I've seen a fan favorite fade quickly into the back-reaches of fans minds in favor of the "new improved player" that is dropped onto the playing field at Ralph Wilson Stadium. This year will be no different. Players that don't make the cut and players that are traded fade fast from fans minds.

Scott, FWIW I vote to bring Mike back to grill. Darn good idea.

Jasper was in for the last Bills def series. His pressure had the QB throwing off his back foot resulting in a Bills pic after a nice play by Williams

We'll be there
