machine gun kelly Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 He is our best lineman. This is why i was patient with him last year as you could tell something was wrong. I'm sure we'll resign him. He's not the problem on our offensive line.
Rob's House Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 It seems the natural reaction of the board is to attack anyone with inside info who has the decency to share it.
Mr. WEO Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 Is he honestly cleared to play football with one kidney? I mean, I know it's his life and all that, and I don't think we should be paternalistic and tell everyone how to live their lives but..... People with one kidney lead perfectly healthy lives - estimates are 1 in 750 or so people are born with 1 kidney and most don't know it until they have an xray or ultrasound. But people who are known to have one kidney, because of accident or donation, are usually counseled to avoid injury to the one kidney they have. Seems like playing a game where behemoths regularly slam you around is not the best practice there? It's a huge risk I would think. No more toradol for Glenn. All because he had 17 posts. The 10K crew rule the roost. emoulds was the ONLY one with a credible source on this topic. One "connected" poster in particular looked really bad in that thread--assuring us over and over it was no big deal.
Wacka Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 i'm surprised they let him play again. He'll be fine health wise. I had a kidney removed when I was 4 because of congenital reasons. They gave me a clean bill of health but told my parents I shouldn't go out for football, hockey or dive from a high board (possibility of damaging my remaining kidney).
abc Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 So one starting tackle just had a kidney removed the other has Crohn's disease. Wow. I can't recall any similar situations off the top of my head in terms of two teammates playing the same or similar positions both having those types of non-football illnesses. I certainly wish Cordy the best and really hope that by continuing to play football he is not putting himself at risk for grave complications down the road. Can only assume he has good medical advice I guess...pragmatically speaking this has to affect his price in Free Agency. He's higher risk no different than someone who has had knee or concussion issues, for example.
PromoTheRobot Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 So please clarify what the big deal is to let the media ( aka the fans ) know what his ailment was?Ever hear of HiPPA laws?
Beerball Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 That thread should be a must read for everyone on this board who jumps to conclusions when they disagree with apparent inside info.Amen.
John from Riverside Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 Wait a minute.....I apologized to Emoulds in that thread!
3rdand12 Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 Just glad Cordy has his health back. and i sure hope Bills can keep The Quiet One. One of my things, is lineman being near the RB at the point of tackle and then picking him up. Cordy often seems to be there somehow.
Peter Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 IS there a reason the BIlls dont let the Media know about this? Typical Bills PR amateur hour. Actually, it is the opposite of amateur hour. HIPAA
Bills Fan of St Augustine Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 Is it bad to hope this scares other teams away from a big offer? Glenn has been solidly average this year. But how many O-lineman can they replace in one off season. Again I would not overpay. If they have to overpay then just tag him and make him play on the franchise tag for a year. Hopefully they get Incognito to sign. Then target a RT in FA or the draft. So many holes at LB, NT, DE, #2 WR and #2 TE.... oh man how did it get this bad so quick... I don't think you can ignore C either. Wood is killing us trying to run the ball up the gut. Watch the tape of him gettng handled against Foreskins on second and third and one form the one. Clearly cost us a TD. Its happened earlier in the year too. "Things are a bit more concerning in the run department. Wood was solid there in 2011 (ranked No. 17 among centers), but if the past three seasons are any indication (No. 32, No. 27, and No. 31 rankings, respectively), Wood might not ever emerge as one of the league's better run-blocking centers." He's gotta go too. Sign Glenn and RI. Hope Mller develops some.. Sign a premier FA RT. We really need a FART on this team!
PO16FFS Posted December 25, 2015 Posted December 25, 2015 OK. Thanks for clearing that up. Cheers and Merry Xmas. All the best to you and your family. Pretty sure I responded! But thanks to all explaining the Hippa!
MarkyMannn Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 IS there a reason the BIlls dont let the Media know about this? Typical Bills PR amateur hour. Is it OK for your employer to release to the public you have an STD? None of our business, honor his privacy
mannc Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 This! Wow, people were burning emoulds. He was spot on.Yep. And did anyone else notice that one of the posters in the tread, which was from July 2014, was already rocking the moniker "Tyrod's Tailor"??? Maybe more than one person had inside info.
YoloinOhio Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 Yep. And did anyone else notice that one of the posters in the tread, which was from July 2014, was already rocking the moniker "Tyrod's Tailor"??? Maybe more than one person had inside info.when you change your screen name, the new one shows up as far back as you ever posted. I assume he/she changed it after he was signed.

Wood lost his ability to anchor and push when he had all the leg issues early in his career.(Including having his leg literally snap while trying to do exactly that) But the Bills still run the ball ok up the middle when they use one of the bigger backs. It was weird seeing them force McCoy up the middle knowing that Wood can't get a push in the run game and that LeSean would turtle on contact.
YoloinOhio Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 @rquinn619 Glenn is gonna get PAID. Bills 602 yds on 57 att (10.5 ypc!!), 4 TD running behind/around him. 45 1st downs (3rd) 32 10+yd runs (1st) @RQUINN619 only 2 sacks, 2 hits, 20 hurries in pass pro too. not bad
BobbyC81 Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 IS there a reason the BIlls dont let the Media know about this? Typical Bills PR amateur hour. Yeah, like HIPAA.

Well, they had one in Fred Jackson but they cut him. Right now the oldest FARTs are Kyle Williams and Incognito, both are 32.
