K D Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 If Bills reporters got booted out for disagreeing then we wouldn't have anyone reporting on this team except Chris Brown

mob16151 Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 Someone kick Sullivan,and Bucky out the Bills press box. Do it for teh lolz
YoloinOhio Posted January 1, 2017 Author Posted January 1, 2017 Lol @lesbowen Eagles Sr VP Anne Gordon made it clear to everyone objecting that she would be happy to eject us all, and that fallout did not concern her.
Reed83HOF Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 This was amazing to follow as it was happening; especially jw's tweets...
Spurna Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 (edited) This is the tweet he made and later deleted that prompted his ejection: Edited January 1, 2017 by Spurna
dulles Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 "Buffalo Bills fans are ninety percent (90%) scar tissue." Former Buffalo Bill Steve Tasker 01/01/2017 I loved that line, the minute I heard it. One of the best things Tasker ever said!
YoloinOhio Posted January 1, 2017 Author Posted January 1, 2017 I loved that line, the minute I heard it. One of the best things Tasker ever said!it is so true! Lmao
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 Was he a hack? Not really. McLane is a frequent commentator. He's not a huge x and o guy, but more like Gaughan than Bucky
Dirtbag Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 Not really. McLane is a frequent commentator. He's not a huge x and o guy, but more like Gaughan than Bucky that's like someone kicking vanilla ice cream out of the press box.

Acantha Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 Lol @lesbowen Eagles Sr VP Anne Gordon made it clear to everyone objecting that she would be happy to eject us all, and that fallout did not concern her. Fallout = bad press ?? Seriously, why do these sports reporters feel like they own the world?
Dirtbag Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 Seriously, why do these sports reporters feel like they own the world? yeah, seriously. i don't know where this guy got the gall to report that doug pederson wasn't scheduled to talk tomorrow. what an a-hole.
Acantha Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 yeah, seriously. i don't know where this guy got the gall to report that doug pederson wasn't scheduled to talk tomorrow. what an a-hole. That's not what the original link said happened. The tweets that were sent out at the time said he was kicked out for first making too much noise, and then arguing with the staff over being told to be quiet. And frankly, I don't care why he was kicked out. My response wasn't even directed at him. It was at the other reporters who were apparently arguing about it so much they got threatened to get kicked out too, and maybe alluded to the Senior VP that there would be "backlash".

MDH Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 Fallout = bad press ?? Seriously, why do these sports reporters feel like they own the world? Since when is expecting to be treated fairly "owning the world?"
