HT02 Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 (edited) What?!? Jeezus, I don't understand what goes through some of your minds. That's a little over the top don't you think? You find it impossible to even think that an obviously hard-nosed, no nonsense coach and a player with a history of speaking his mind and having public spats with a coach are not getting along? You're right that is crazy Edited April 5, 2017 by HT02
Elite Poster Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 For all the pissing and moaning that happened here about McCoy missing these workouts, a lot of you are in no position to complain about this article. That's a little over the top don't you think? You find it impossible to even think that an obviously hard-nosed, no non-sense coach and a player with a history of speaking his mind and having public spats with a coach are not getting along? You're right that is crazy He had public spats about a coach that destroyed a franchise, traded it's cornerstone players for peanuts, and got fired from two franchises in the span of two years. Perspective baby. Have some.
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 ...veteran leaders "lead" by example, especially with a new regime.....divas pull the "Iverson card".....have ZERO use for mega million divas......game was built on guys like Billy Shaw leaving his full time cement mixing job to play for Bflo at a whopping 18 grand a year and then went back to his full time job...couldn't retire until 66 because that's when his Social Security kicked in......

Wow I wish I were as cool and smart as you, coming up with conversation ending lines like that. Despite being "put in my place" I'll respond. To recap: I originally write that I get the sense that there is some tension brewing between the Bills and McCoy based on the subtle digs I when I read McDermott's statements about McCoy not attending the voluntary work out and McCoy's prior vague statements that seemed to indicate he was leaving. I didn't take sides with either the coach or the player, I don't know enough about what is really going at 1 BD to do that. Someone over reacted to my post as if it was INSANE to speculate on that. In reply I pointed out that McDermott seems to be a "no-nonsense" my way or the highway guy and McCoy has been pretty outspoken. It is certainly possible that they might not be seeing eye to eye. Again not blaming anyone just throwing out a suspicion or speculation which I hope is incorrect. Can we have conversations and express opinions without the drama and personal attacks?
BADOLBILZ Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 yes. I think he did too. Can't be.....just CAN'T BE! Do you think McDermott doesn't know what "voluntary" means! And why are you getting so worked up about stretching yoyo? It's just stretching......
iinii Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 ....Bruce "Mo Money" Smith is old news...let's talk about NOW and ending the 17 year drought..........NOW it is 5 months until opening day. Even if it rains every night at the strip club getting all worked up because Shady isn't stretching with the boys is pretty sad. When it's time to cut on a dime, Mr McCoy will let you know.
Maury Ballstein Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 (edited) Yeah but when is it OK to start expecting the expected from players? Like I said, hopefully he shows up tomorrow. Just not a good look to start. When they unnecessarily extended him I expected he wouldn't be in Buffalo to see the extension years........I still expect that. This no-show just adds that little bit of intrigue to what should have been a fully attended first OTA...........it's a small show of disrespect to the new HC/staff........not much, but something. I don't take it for more than that......but McDermott seems like he wants everyone in the organization on one page......as opposed to past regimes where many exceptions were granted. Can't be.....just CAN'T BE! Do you think McDermott doesn't know what "voluntary" means! And why are you getting so worked up about stretching yoyo? It's just stretching......Will Badol melt down with hot Shady takes ? Stay tuned. Whose yoyo? Wasn't she a rapper in the early 90's ? Edited April 6, 2017 by Ryan L Billz

Can we have conversations and express opinions without the drama and personal attacks? did not pick up that vibe here. we all have commentary. We have enough folks who make it personal alrady methinks NOW it is 5 months until opening day. Even if it rains every night at the strip club getting all worked up because Shady isn't stretching with the boys is pretty sad. When it's time to cut on a dime, Mr McCoy will let you know. he surprised me last year for sure. but that aint what this is about. It's Team building it aint just stretching. Thats bs. Shady wants to do his own thing? tis what it tis. but it's something and not nothing he is doing not showing up
BADOLBILZ Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 Will Badol melt down with hot Shady takes ? Stay tuned. Whose yoyo? Wasn't she a rapper in the early 90's ? Cubes' side piece. Don't mess with our yoyo.......don't try to play him out! don't try to play him out!

BobDVA Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 Season starts and no Buddy will remember I have forgotten already!
HT02 Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 Not at all. It's a silly take. Tough to debate logic like that
eball Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 Tough to debate logic like that I won't debate those who aren't capable of differentiating between facts and wild opinions.
billrooter Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 NOW it is 5 months until opening day. Even if it rains every night at the strip club getting all worked up because Shady isn't stretching with the boys is pretty sad. When it's time to cut on a dime, Mr McCoy will let you know. There is no reason for anyone to get worked up,but if a guy is making 7-8 million a year to play a game, don't you think he should get his ass to voluntary stretches, come on everyone else is present why is he special? Team chemistry is developed like this and you have a lot of new staff on hand.
papazoid Posted April 7, 2017 Posted April 7, 2017 (edited) that birthday party cake must have those candles that keep relighting Edited April 7, 2017 by papazoid
BADOLBILZ Posted April 7, 2017 Posted April 7, 2017 that birthday party cake must have those candles that keep relighting It's more of a "birth-week", really. Common practice for people from Harrisburg, PA area. Amish thing.....like rumspringa etc..
HT02 Posted April 9, 2017 Posted April 9, 2017 I won't debate those who aren't capable of differentiating between facts and wild opinions. So you know for a fact that McCoy is happy with the Bills and vice versa? You clearly don't know what a fact is.
iinii Posted April 9, 2017 Posted April 9, 2017 he surprised me last year for sure. but that aint what this is about. It's Team building it aint just stretching. Thats bs.

Team chemistry is developed like this and you have a lot of new staff on hand. you know what they say about expectations?
johnwalter Posted April 9, 2017 Posted April 9, 2017 mccoy is a phenomenal talent, but is a total low life. that party he threw a few years back where he wanted to dress the women attending was a major reveal. that's all you really need to know, but it's nice of him to do something wack every once and a while just to remind us. like i said though, phenomenal talent, and probably the best player on the team last year - dude has a lot of leverage.
