Bleed Bills Blue

That's the problem I see. Our games are often so close just one dumb play or critical penalty can lose it for us. Still, we need the healthy body, and we'll be running the ball from here on in, so that suits his style. I'd love to see him open some big holes for L&J. Nothing to lose at this point. Next year? With a new coaching regime coming in all talk is mere speculation.

The division title will come down to the final tiebreaker, and we'll lose that coin toss.

I'm not even sure I want to see him as the backup next year.

Hey guys, ditch the loser mentality and let's win them both!

Actually...a blind man did make this pick. The Bills' preferred method on draft day is blindfolds and darts.

And that pic was snapped as he was getting out of an ice water bath!

Ok, I'm pitiful to rejoice over a Pats* loss...I don't care! I would SO love to beat them at home.

Ha, nice encapsulation. I agree with the jist of what you say, and I like your style in saying it. It helps explain why Trent is now a spectator, and, barring injury, may never start for the Bills again. That crap my have floated with Jauron as HC, but Fewell won't stand for it. And he won't because, like you and I and the rest of Bills fans, we agree on the last line of your post.

And probably beat no one else the rest of the season. Good point.

No! Not in the mouth!! He has such a perty little mouth...

Yeah, but 10 very entertaining minutes. That stuff never gets old! Love the block by Flutie on the shovel pass. Bruce, Thurman and Andre still playing like champions at this late date. One of the great games in Bills history. I guess Dick vowed revenge on the Bills after this game.

TO In 10...get 'er done, Russ!

Apparently, it's not as hard to win in the NFL as we were led to believe!

If no one else has mentioned it yet, good observation...a pleasant surprise! But how on earth did the refs miss that glaring false start on the Fins?

For sure, there were some rocking moments of celebration, but, yeah, especially at that critical time late in the game, when things hung in the balance (and the defense could use the help), things were pretty tomb-like. I look for this to improve as Jauron's somnolent shroud slowly evaporates from western New York. His creeping poison had spread and infected everything. I mean, the crowd had learned over time that no matter how much noise it made, it wasn't going to effect the course of the game, so why bother? I will say that TO really lights up the place. He's electric and seems to feed off the energy. For whatever part he may have in this team's resurgence, I thank him. I hope there's a place for him on next year's squad.

Yo Levi, how sweet was it to see those loudmouths sulk out of there early with their fins between their legs?

And remember when Josh McDaniels was able to win games single handedly just by running down the sidelines pumping his fist? Hell, by that measure Tom Landry must have sucked because he was just Dick Jauron with a tie.

I believe that was the final game of his career...how sad. While we're at it, remind me how that career final game went for Jimmy Johnson and Dan Marino. When you're a Bills fan, you take the small pleasures in life wherever you find them.

Well, it's a good thing the new health care bill isn't law yet. With rationing of services coming, teams like the Colts and Patriots* will get top-notch care. The Lions and Bills will have to settle for whichever veterinarian is on call at the local animal shelter. My prayers go out to EW. He's a tough guy, and I believe he'll be fine.

I haven't been this despondent since February 11, 2000.

Understanding the cap realities didn't lessen the sadness of the passing of that era.

Agreed. As tempting as the Shanahan life preserver appears to us drowning Bills fans, the fact is that power corrupts... In this case, my fear is that giving total control to one individual might tend to breed arrogance and insulate him from the healthy effects a structured system of checks and balances would provide. And if you think that Mr. Wilson found it difficult to dump Jauron, how much harder might it be for him to cut Shanahan at two or more times the salary, should he muck up things in a couple years? As much as everyone wants to finalize things tomorrow, I say let's take as much time as is required to get this right. These decisions will impact all of us for a long time to come. Sharpen those pruning shears!

Yes, and how great would it be to be able to use our early picks in the draft on building the O & D lines/LB?
