The Big Cat Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I really, really hate to be the turd in the punch bowl here, but as Bills fans, shouldn't we expect a major acquisition like Mario Williams to flame out?--most likely because of injury? He's already missed substantial time in two seasons, including last year--his second straight year on IR. Have I missed something? Where were the doom and gloomers to make these points for me when we signed the guy? Is anyone else concerned by this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, I expected as much in return. Honestly, the thought never even occurred to me until my buddy (also a Bills fan) brought it up while we were partying Friday night (who's the tool now?). The moment the words escaped his lips, my heart dropped to the floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cincinnati Kid Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Better now that its been brought up. "In other news, The Big Cat Curse in Buffalo is still going strong, 10 whole years after musing about season ending injuries to the team's most coveted Free Agent signing prior to the 2012 season. Today, the 2019 Number 1 Overall pick, who recently signed with the Buffalo Bills of Niagara and Toronto, went down and will likely be placed on Injured Reserve for the remainder of the 2022 season. Real shame. The Big Cat, wherever you are, Damn You!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SageAgainstTheMachine Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 The two IR stints were for an inflamed hernia and torn pectoral muscle. Painful stuff , but not known as nagging injuries. If we were talking about ligament damage, I'd be more concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wooderson Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 What do you mean odds? Can I go to Vegas and put $50 on Mario Williams 18-1 to go on the IR? There are no odds to injuries, they're something you can't really control. You better knock on wood for bringing it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The moment the words escaped his lips, my heart dropped to the floor. I had the same exact thing happen to me!!! I was talking about how pumped for the season I was and he said "dude it's the Bills Williams will be on IR before week 3." I laughed (he was joking) then got that terrible feeling in my gut and told him if it happens I get one free punch in his face. He wouldn't go for it so I didn't and don't feel any better... I may have to punch him anyways if it happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GOBILLS78 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I'm not surprised by this thread, though I'm semi-surprised it was started by TBC. To answer your question, no I'm not really concerned about it. S#*t happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we were talking about ligament damage, I'd be more concerned. I've tried to reassure myself with the same justifications, believe me. Though I suppose they're both sound reasons it's never been discussed before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milehiLou Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 the real difference in this years defense is that george edwards has left the building. if something happens to Mario Williams i fully expect someone to pick up the slack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
