Bleed Bills Blue

And if by "screwed" you mean cashing in on a mega-million dollar payday and sitting pretty the rest of your life...well, who among us wouldn't love to be screwed? Had to laugh, though, at that whole opening sequence as he discusses his "toned body" during the Lactic Acid Flush/Tofu-Cucumber Wrap Therapy ("Coach Johnson knows my body" ?? ). His whole manner reminds me of what I imagine a young RJ might have been like. Ah, the eternal wellspring of young blood in the water for feasting NFL defensive sharks. Extra credit for his hot girlfriend, however! http://manofest.com/images/rsgallery/displ...sanchez.jpg.jpg

Amen

Yeah, it may not work out, but-staring down the abyss-it's a lifeline.

So much for continuity.

It's tough to win in life. Sooner these kids learn that the better.

Yes, and as a pedestrian he needs to look both ways so he doesn't get run over...oh, wait...

Don't look for any miracles this off season. Ralph has promised continuity.

Like most of his passes...perfectly timed. And, as has been often noted, retiring when he did meant he didn't have to compete with Elway or Marino in his first year of HOF eligibilty.

Fixed it for you.

Maybe hypnosis or electroshock therapy might help him. Hormone injections could take up the production slack of his numb nuts. Thing is, Ralph has already rewarded him for mediocrity, so why should he change? From the top down, it's all carrot and no stick at OBD.

We need a new team song for next year...(with apologies to Paul Simon) The problem is all inside your head Ralph said to us It's not the QB or that toady GM Russ My whole front office rides to work on a short bus There must be 50 ways to lose in football 50 ways to lose in football

Bills Football: All you need is a draft pick and a dream.

If the babe in your avatar starts going next year, I might reconsider my cancellations.

Our group has decided not to renew at least four of our six season seats for next year. Had 'em for over 20 years. I've talked to a number of guys in our section who are planning on the same. They're serious...look them in the eye and you know, it's over. We won't be made fools of. I can't even express my sadness right now.

Amen. The man has to go.

I think the OP's point has some validity. Why else is the importance always stressed of having players on your roster with playoff / Super Bowl experience?

Heh heh, I like this comment: "Yeah Willis. Please do it for you. Have an awesome game on Sunday so we can find someone we can trade your stupid ass to so we can go and get Fred Jackson from Buffalo. Frigging idiot. Why now?" Yeah, you can have Freddie, B-more fan...when the Chesapeake freezes over.

Bring in Marty, then we party!

Exactly, if, as I suspect, ieatcrayonz has been advising them all along.

It's a big decision either way. I'm glad they're taking a thorough, deliberate approach; but I'll be very disappointed if Jauron stays with the team, even in another capacity.

I'll watch, just not from my frozen aluminum perch at the Ralph. Our group has emailed the ticket office to let them know that if Dick Jauron is retained as head coach, we will not be renewing our six season seats after 20+ years. Wonder how western New Yorkers will feel about this team if many of the games are blacked out next year?

This is the usual pattern, I agree. I've seen it many times before. But things feel very different this time around...the mood was very apparent and palpable. Coupled with a bad economy I'd say 1000 is way too low. Guess we'll see.

We've got six we will not be renewing if Jauron remains as HC, and we're twenty-one years strong...the coaching is just killing us. Shook hands goodbye with other friends / longtime STH in our section at the end of the game yesterday who told us the same. We've joked about it before, but this time it's really serious. My rough guess is it translates into 10,000 non-renewals minimum. Believe me, they know at OBD, since they have the results of a recent questionnaire. Not exactly sure, but I don't think I'll be assuaged much if Jauron is booted upstairs. I think we need to make a clean break and send him packing. We don't need his play-not-to-lose philosophy filtering down to the team in any way. Rather, we desperately need a HC with a win-at-all-costs attitude.

"But Jauron was content to go to halftime with a 3-3 tie. That's the most troubling thing, even more than the brutal clock management or the poor communication. In the final game of the season, with nothing to lose, with a chance to let it all hang out, Jauron wasn't thinking touchdown. He was reaching for the low standard, just like his owner." - Jerry Sullivan I just want to strangle Dick Jauron so bad.
