I love the fact that Jim, Thurman and Darryl are actively involved with the Bills after all of these years. HOwever, i find it strange that they think it's ok to hang around the locker room after the game. I doubt they as players would have liked it that much.

Agree, Kota. I actually had heard that Thurman in particular, was always uncomfortable with the fact that OJ would walk around the locker room after games with that USMC knuckle knife he used to wear on his belt.

Imagine Montana getting dissed in San Fran. Or Elway or Davis getting dissed in Denver.

 

Imagine Montana/Elway hanging around the 49er/Bronco locker room ripping Alex Smith/Kyle Orton.

 

 

Yeah, I can't either.

On a somewhat related line, why are old retired players handing around the locker room? Is this a common thing in the NFL? Other than Chuck Lester, there isn't anyone on this team or staff that they'd even know.

 

Does Steve Grogan hang out in the Patriots locker room? Does Joe Namath pop into the Jets?

 

It just seems kind of odd to me.

They probably go in the locker room to get their ego's stroked, and when it doesn't happen it upsets them. The players from 20 years ago are night and day different from the players of today. Most of today's players, winning comes second to the paycheck. Although there were some of them back then, not nearly as many. I would also bet it kinda gets under the skin of players like Thurman who spent most of his career winning, to see these perennial losers making 10 times the money that he made.

Are they actively involved or just voicing their opinion because they know Bills fans will listen?

I'm conflicted on this one. On the one hand, those guys will forever be my heroes.

 

On the other hand, this kind of reminds me of college guys who go back to their high schools. Just weird.

Thurman just addressed it on GR-Bulldog suggested it was Edwards and Thurman said "No I had a great conversation with Trent" but when Bulldog suggested Lynch Thurman just sort of beated around the bush.

 

 

Well, It wasn't Whitner so that really only leaves one person with a big mouth, but from the sounds of it, the whole thing may not have been all that bad anyway, especially considering Thurman didn't originally even take offense to it.

Well, #1- Kelly has been relegated to fan-with-benefits status since he retired from the team. I would think that about 75% of the fans on this site would bash Trent at OBD if they could. Kelly and Thomas are perfectly able to speak their mind, as this is a country with a 1st Amendment to a Constitution, and secondly there are iconic players of the franchise. They should be respected as such.

 

Imagine Montana getting dissed in San Fran. Or Elway or Davis getting dissed in Denver.

 

and #2- who cares!??!?!?!?

 

 

Jeez...quit being so dramatic. Of course Kelly has the right to say anything he wants... but when you choose to say the "wrong" thing (IMO openly criticizing current guys, is wrong, but just my opinion, and it seems to be shared by others), you suffer the consequence of the words you exercised your right to use... I don't have a problem with what Kelly said, I just don't think he needed to say it. It served no purpose, and certainly didn't help the current Bills squad. It really only served him...

All joking aside, T.O. was one of the players

 

From what I heard it was T.O.

 

Apparently he had a few words with JK and

started crying and said something to the effect

of "He's my quarterback".

 

Seems like an unusual way for a future HOF

WR to act, but it's what I heard.

Thurman has always been uber sensitive to the slightest possible diss. His HOF career was built on his anger about being dissed in the draft, and the whole time he was playing he was an arrogant, petulant SOB to fans and media alike over any perceived dissing. I am guessing this situation is a combination of a couple worthless, lowlife thugs (Lynch and Hardy?) giving less than deferential treatment to Thurman, and Thurman taking it to ridiculous extremes on his Twitter.

Thurman was only over sensitive when he was drunk, which has been half of the last 10 years or so. I can agree (as can anyone) that Lynch is a thug, but what has Hardy done to make you think that? You tear your knee up and you become a thug? Bottom line is, if Thurman doesn't like it, he needs to stay out, he isn't on this team anymore, and isn't employed by the Bills. Who knows maybe he went in to hide someone else's helmet.
