BADOLBILZ Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 (edited) I don't think the media is to blame for any of it either. But it's news and it's off the field bickering and it came to affect the on the field stuff, which is wins and losses. And actually made the Bills a better team. So it's worthy of discussion. There is zero proof to back what you just said. I normally get where you are coming from but I think they win 9 games whether people outside the organization know that there is some friction or not. But at least you are trying to make a point, unlike Dean......who apparently is on some other existential plane on the subject. Good for him. Edited September 6, 2015 by #BADOL
Chilly Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 This thread is about as useful as a Tim Graham Twitter spat.
BADOLBILZ Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 This thread is about as useful as a Tim Graham Twitter spat. Agreed, this whole thread is basically about how pointless it is to worry.. Leave it to eball to start such tangible topics.

I didnt mean last year's record, which was likely unchanged. I meant this years on the field team is a direct result of behind the scenes bickering of GM and coach and discord, so it makes it a worthy topic of discussion. You were saying this kind of thing is bullschit and unworthy of discussion because you only care about on the field wins and losses.
IDBillzFan Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 You mean like your ongoing need to justify and discuss the meaningless fluff? Respect the TIMMAH or face the undying scorn of the TIMMAH TIM-MAHS!

The topic of dissension is worthy of discussion but that's about it. Attacking Tim Graham for reporting it......shooting the messenger. Pointless.
Kelly the Dog Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 The topic of dissension is worthy of discussion but that's about it. Attacking Tim Graham for reporting it......shooting the messenger. Pointless. It's not shooting the messenger. He's intentionally distorting it. That was the point of the thread whether it affects wins and losses or not. There isn't much dissension and he's reporting as if there is with a scandalous quote that doesn't mean what he is allowing it to mean. Now, granted, I don't think this will have any affect whatsoever on the field or on the team ultimately either. So it's not a big deal. And I totally agree with you that wins and losses are going to be the real story once the games start. But it's worthy of discussion.
billsfanmiami(oh) Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 Tim Graham comes across as combative, vengeful, and not very intelligent. If one of my employees were posting social media comments like Tim does, they would be looking for a new job. Wake up Buffalo News. Certainly doesn't portray himself in a way that I would expect a true professional would.

I'm thinking BADO believes, since the Bills have been a dysfunctional organization for so long, nobody associated with them can be defamed---or. perhaps more to the point, it doesn't matter since they are bad. That's about the only sense I can make of his ramblings in this thread. Edited September 6, 2015 by The Dean

That's about the only sense I can make of his ramblings in this thread. Yes, senseless ramblings about tangible things.....results....when you want to delve into a very hazy land of make believe where your invalid conclusions are accepted as fact. I wish Doug Whaley well....on the fence about him but leaning toward appreciation.......and that is not affected one bit by that quote. If there are people in the organization that don't like something he's done and they feel like saying something about it then so be it. That's not a reporters fault.
BADOLBILZ Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 He's obviously just trolling everyone in this thread (for some inexplicable reason). Because you are being irrational whiners. You guys can't even get on the same page about why you are upset about this. Kelly supports your side and shot your take down for it's false premise before I even got to it.

Rico Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 Let me make sure I understand your point. Say a source tells me you make pornos with farm animals? Now this source might be mad at you or barely even know you. And the story may be entirely false. But hey, I have a source. So I tweet out that #BADOL f##s pigs on video. Pig F##ker Quarterly sees my tweet and they pick up the story. Now it's national news. You are understandably upset because this story is not true. You don't f##k pigs, at least not anymore. Maybe once in college when you were experimenting, but no more. You complain to me and ask why I would tweet something so damaging to your reputation without checking it out? I explain that if you were more popular and well liked I'd have made more of an effort to be correct. But since most people already think your are a pig f##ker anyway, I didn't bother. So would I be right doing that? Nice. And ICE is the one who gets banned all the time, go figure.
Lurker Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 Nice. And ICE is the one who gets banned all the time, go figure. Yeah, I see a trend here...and it's basically to troll TSW. Not sure why this thread has any more value, Mods...
PromoTheRobot Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 (edited) Nice. And ICE is the one who gets banned all the time, go figure.I'm just taking #BADOL's example to show that inaccuracy in reporting is just that...inaccurate. It shouldn't depend on whether your team wins more games. #BADOL complains about the minority of fans who are obsessed with the Bills national reputation. I contend there is a minority of fans who like reading bag things about the Bills and defend anything that fits their belief, true or not. Edited September 6, 2015 by PromoTheRobot
Kelly the Dog Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 I'm just taking #BADOL's example to show that inaccuracy in reporting is just that...inaccurate. It shouldn't depend on whether your team wins more games. It wasn't inaccurate. It was disingenuous. There is a difference.
