MAJBobby Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 I dont mind Sully, heck, ill click on his column and read it all the time. Im easily as cynical as he is about this team. To me though, the Pegulas are untouchable. They own our teams and ill love them forever no matter what. That being said, all the years i been reading this forum, ive been moderatly convinced Rico IS Sully. He has had his Issues with Pegulas since the Sabres. And I really do believe it has to do with how Pegulas made their money through Fracking. And his opinions on that process He as alluded and or let it slip on twitter multiple times.
26CornerBlitz Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 You might be able to argue that the Pegulas should have been there to introduce him, and maybe deflect a question or two. But this was the regularly scheduled, weekly HC presser. Nothing more. And Lynn is the HC. No way ownership would introduce an interim HC.
DrDawkinstein Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 No way ownership would introduce an interim HC. Right, thats kinda might point. It wasnt going to happen. None of this was as big of a deal as a few folks in the local press are making it out to be.
MAJBobby Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 Bad analogy. He's not the one hiding. Bills management is. No they are not. They told them well in advance Monday. But the little baby sport reporters need quotes god forbid they actually research a subject and write about it.

Big Turk Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 I believe it was all part of the "interview" process. To see Lynn's ability to handle such press conferences. Kinda Carl Paladinoish That's how billionaire CEOs think, not small time writers...Sullivan has no idea about these types of things.
MAJBobby Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 Yeah, it's not like there aren't a million unanswered questions floating around this debacle. What are you questions that you need answered on Wednesday December 28th.
DrDawkinstein Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 Yeah, it's not like there aren't a million unanswered questions floating around this debacle. There arent really. And the ones that are unanswered (who will be HC next year?) cant be answered today.
baskingridgebillsfan Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 Sully took some shots a Lynn on his twitter page. I can't cope and paste them from my cell
Captain_Quint Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 Is there anything funnier than watching a local sports writer explain how pro sports owners are bozos? If only these owners held the real key to success: sitting in a cubicle eating leftover holiday fruitcake while sipping lukewarm coffee from a recycled, washed-out Hortons cup while typing judgmental thoughts about people he could never, ever come to understand. If only local sports writers were in charge..then and only then would the world be beautiful.
DrDawkinstein Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 Look, this whole thing is simple enough. Any company making major management changes is a bit unstable throughout that time. The sharks at TBN smell blood in the water and attacked the first piece of meat that floated by. This is a "victory" in the battle that wages in their own little minds between them vs the team.

Ive hiked past those natural gas wells in the National forests in western Pennsylvania many times, im a nature lover and outdoorsman. I dont love it, but we have to heat the homes and run the stoves of 300 million Americans somehow. This is a topic for a different forum though. I didnt know that about Ric... I mean Sully though. Thanks for the info.

Hapless Bills Fan Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 How hasn't this guy been punched? What a weasel. He's the nerd who name calls and hides behind the teacher. Every time I mistakenly read a Sully column, it makes me grumpy until I remember the story about Kent Hull and Darryl Talley playing basketball with him, running pick plays and throwing elbows.
Original Byrd Man Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 Vintage Sully! http://buffalonews.com/2016/12/28/1223432/ "Anthony Lynn's inaugural press conference as the Bills' head coach was not exactly a public relations triumph. It was, quite predictably, the latest installment in the Pegulas' amateur hour production as pro sports owners." Can't wait for next Monday's presser! I don't even bother clicking on his articles. Hopefully others will do the same and maybe the BN will drop him
John from Riverside Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 I realize the situation....having said that I found myself wanting to be in the room to tell certain "media" to shut their fricken pie holes in this press conference..... It is not the Lynn's fault that this happened so quickly......to try to dig into him trying to get something to write about makes YOU a bunch of cowards.... You want to go after Whaley? Do it directly dont do it to the damn soldier with his boots on the ground!
MAJBobby Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 Ahhh i see he is on twitter now calling Lynn a puppett So much for poor Lynn like the article Ooo and now starting rumors of Bylsma and Murray better look out because of what happened with Rex.
PromoTheRobot Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 Media: we demand access! Bills: here's the coach. Media: you did it wrong!
