T master Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 I have been a Bills fan ever since i was a kid & i am now in my 50's so i've been a fan for a while . During most of that time there has been one owner & one mind set as we all know & while Ralph was the owner most of the fans said he was cheap , i don't know if that was Ralph or one of his people he put in place …... During the time i have been a fan very few really good players have stayed around past there rookie contracts or past there first contract . Players like Bryce Paup , & others that come via FA only hang around for one short contract & i just read a article that may have finally cleared all of that up . I don't know if that was a mind set put forth by Ralph or if that is the way this guy works . But this article may just clear up a lot of the old "Ralph was Cheap" talk . http://www.buffalorumblings.com/satire/2015/2/6/7956801/buffalo-bills-offer-jerry-hughes-50-million-yen-contract It is no wonder the Bills couldn't keep any good players around with this guy (Overdorf) & his thoughts of contract negotiation with him being the chief contract negotiator . It wouldn't surprise me if he just pissed off another really good player that could now be leaving the Bills !! Just because of being insulted by this jack wagon !! It too would not surprise me if we see more leave this year because of his BS , offering a ridiculous contract to a player of his skills such as he did Hughes , what Hughes needs to do is go right to Mr. Pegula him self & say "REALLY" you allow this jack ass to offer this to me or any other player ? This guy is the reason why Parker clients wouldn't stick around , why T. Washington, S. Adams, N. Clements, A. Winfield , & so many other really good players have walked away from Buffalo , because this guy insults them like this right off the bat & it's all down hill from there . I realize you don't start with a top offer & come down from there but the way he did this guy is ignorant & his mind set according to the article clears up a lot of past players leaving . Overdorf is part of the old mind set apparently & i think he either needs a talking to by the new ownership to not insult the really good players & start with a legit bid or just shut up !! As far as this years crop of FA's . See ya CJ , It's been nice Jerry , By D. Searcy , we'll watch you with other teams while your career continues on the up sign & have this wing nut (Overdorf) to thank for it !!
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 But this article may just clear up a lot of the old "Ralph was Cheap" talk . IMO the Ralph was Cheap talk was mostly in jest.

nucci Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 For calling yourself a Master, you're not too bright. Unless you're going along with the joke then I apologize
T master Posted February 6, 2015 Author Posted February 6, 2015 total; horse poo....this is a spoof article. I hope the article was a spoof because if it isn't it explains a lot !!
chris heff Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 Ralph was cheaper with coaches than he was with players. That really was the problem.
eball Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 ROFLMAO at T master. I truly hope you were only trying to get our goats, and if not, well.... :lol:
LeviF Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 I hope the article was a spoof because if it isn't it explains a lot !! It says "satire" right in the damn URL.
eball Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 Looks like someone is busy moderating in this thread...
Best Player Available Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 Overdorf-- stunned he is still around, and with FA around the corner it would seem likely he may Have positioned himself for at least a temporary reprieve.
Nanker Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 I've never heard any of this before - ever. And now we have absolute proof of Ralph's cheapness and now all can see what a tool Overbite is. INcredible! That's all I've got to say.
buffalover4life Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 This is a Type of news called satire. Its fake. http://www.buffalorumblings.com/satire/2015/2/6/7956801/buffalo-bills-offer-jerry-hughes-50-million-yen-contract
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 Oh boy. Should I tell him? I did in the other thread
Fadingpain Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 Please tell me everyone here is smart enough to figure out this is a big fat joke...it's actually entertaining reading. My initial reaction after reading "YEN" in the headline was "Is it April 1st?" and I actually looked at the calendar on my computer!
