I think that the former players being involved is a great idea. Football has always lacked the sense of, and appreciation for, tradition. It seems like nobody minded these guys speaking up when we were on team spiral.

 

I think that their strong personalities, and a lack or precedence with former alumni being so active has lead to some misguided actions. Kelly didn't need to call out Trent. Although he stated the obvious, it was still in poor taste. Thurman should have been the bigger man and addressed this with the player directly. Maybe he should have looked at it from the player's perspective, instead of Tweeting it, and having his wife Tweet it, and leaving it open to speculation.

 

I, for one, like having the core members of the greatest football team, I have ever had the pleasure of rooting for, around to help these guys. I was hoping that Jim would talk to Trent after the MNF game last year, and try to mentor him. These guys knew how to win, and as has been mentioned with Thurman, it wasn't always nice. Kids shouldn't be in the locker room, period. It shouldn't be a field trip. They should be firing the guys up, not looking to get the ring kissed.

 

Either way, I hope these guys stay associated with the franchise, and mature into great sources of knowledge and inspiration for the current Bills.

i bet it was brian moorman and rian lindell

 

 

 

Has anybody stopped and thought that it might've been a couple of fans wearing Bills jerseys? Thurman might be a little nearsighted.

 

Seriously, hard to imagine anybody dissing him, unless they didn't recognize him or something.

Whitner is the one with a big mouth...

 

 

 

This isn't Whitner's kind of thing.

 

Let's just admit that we have no idea, and won't till we hear from Thurman or Talley.

Thurman's wife sent me a message on twitter saying it wasn't Whitner.

It was T.O and Lynch.

 

All of the current players were able to meet the hall of fame players at halftime, and when T.O was schedule to meet Jim and Thurman he just walked by, and then Lynch followed. Thurm was pissed because every other time Marshawn has been nice to him.

 

I don't understand the big deal in that, T.O is himself, he wasn't drafted here nor does he plan to be here more then a year he doesn't care about the bills past. Lynch on the other hand is a different story, he needs to get a plane ticket out of here asap.

 

It was something along those lines.

Thurm said it wasn't T.O on twitter, but I think he was just trying not to start anything.

I thought it was funny that T.O was on twitter that night saying how Thurm was better then Emmett Smith.

I don't think it's that big of a deal to be honest, I think it was overreacting.. And I think he was more upset at Lynch following T.O's lead when T.O is around, but numerous times before that Lynch has always been nice to Thurm.

So if Lynch and TO said nothing to Thurman why would his kid care? What was so upsetting to his son that it affected Thurm?

Posted
Seriously. Those two have been nothing but punks since the day we signed them, listening to their rock and roll music.

I hear Moorman is into Zeppelin. Lindell likes the Dead.

Dk. maybe his kid was with him when they were supposed to meet with him and jim, and saw them walk right by them.

Here's a few tweets from Sunday night/Monday early morning where Thurman alludes to it not being TO

Regardless, I like that Thurman isn't saying who it was...hopefully whoever it was apologizes and the matter can hopefully be laid to rest. Thurman wasn't really bugged by the diss himself all that much (If I remember correctly, when he talked about it on his show yesterday, he said he was like "whatever" about it)...but it bugged his son a lot and like any good father, his top concern is for his children

Doesn't sound like it was TO to me.

I'd put my money on marshawn and someone like josh reed or roscoe.

 

If you had ever talked to Josh Reed in person you would never even think this.

Take it for what it is, I'm just telling you what I know.

 

I didn't think it would have had anything to do with TO neither at first.

 

Nor do I really think it was really that big of a deal, my guess is he was just fuming at the time.. hence the twitter updates. Now that he has realized it's not really that big of a deal, he has cooled down about it.
