26CornerBlitz Posted July 18, 2017 Author Posted July 18, 2017 The first half of your sentiment, I can say I felt the same way. Which a part of me is pleased with the White selection because the kid was grinning ear to ear and genuinely seemed appreciative of the Bills selecting him. The other half was annoyed since we had to draft another first round CB. Two guys (Gilmore & White) with different demeanors and personalities reacting differently. Nothing more than that.
BringBackOrton Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 (edited) He's missed 11 games during the middle 3 years of his 5-year career. And that mostly while avoiding contact whenever possible. With the Cheaters, they "expect more"...like tackling. Compared to the average NFLer, he's not a health risk. Your cherry picked "middle year" stat notwithstanding. Edited July 18, 2017 by jmc12290
jr1 Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 I like the games at 1pm so I have the rest of the day free
LABILLBACKER Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 Not a particularly smart tweet I guess but not that insulting. I'd bet a lot of his friends and family rarely saw him and will see him a lot more now. What are you talking about? We got to see him get burned and look back all the time.
ko12010 Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 His people don't have internet access? Not that hard to see any team play if you care to seek it out. Haha exactly. I've found a way to watch every Bills game for almost twenty years now without living in Buffalo. So...I guess your peeps don't care that much Stephon. Can't wait till Andre Holmes toasts him. I'm pumped to see Holmes in action. Sammy, Zay, Holmes, Clay, and more passes to Shady should be awesome. A very nice core to build on in the coming years.
Wayne Arnold Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 I hope he attempts a dumb shoulder tackle in Week 1 and misses half the season.

4_kidd_4 Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 Gilly should just reply with a shot of his paystub. "Scoreboard", Jonah.
White Linen Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 The insecure mindset that is Buffalo. That's why. This is what small minded people think that can't take a joke. You'll never see that you look as foolish as the people that did take actual offense and get mad.
Chandler#81 Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 I like the games at 1pm so I have the rest of the day free Well, we've certainly gotten used to a Sunday format in our lives.. A near generation of repetition will do that to ya..
Doc Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 Compared to the average NFLer, he's not a health risk. Your cherry picked "middle year" stat notwithstanding. He's no longer an "average NFLer." Which was obviously the point in talking about giving him $12 million a year.
purple haze Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 He didn't take a shot at Buffalo. He simply stated a truism: he will be on national television a lot more. Half the fans wanted him gone and now that he's gone those same people are still worrying after him. Let it go.

section122 Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 Gilmore will be an all pro this year. Absolutely. My one gripe with Gilmore is a grabber and it won't get called in New England. I expect him to live up to every bit of that contract and "all of a sudden" become a star in the league. He will get the Patriot bump that Hogan got last year. Everyone needs to prepare for the "I'm sorry but I miss Gilmore" thread that is coming. Unless of course he gets injured

grb Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 From the linked article : "New England is scheduled to play in five nationally televised games this season as well as take on the Oakland Raiders as part of the NFL's International Series. Whereas the Patriots will play often in front of a national audience, the Bills are only scheduled to have one primetime game when they take on the New York Jets on NFL Network's Thursday Night Football. Buffalo's lack of national visibility comes down to their 17-year playoff drought, the longest in all professional sports". Don't really see why people are looking so hard for an insult.....
eball Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 It was just a dumb tweet from Gilmore because it didn't need to be said. Anyone can watch any game they want to -- Sunday Ticket, sports bars...implying that "your people" can only see you play when you're in primetime is an idiotic statement. I'm not annoyed because I think it was a dis at the Bills, I'm annoyed because Gilmore is an idiot.
Formerly Allan in MD Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 He'd be on TV more if he'd tackle someone.
Captain Murica Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 Think if he didn't add "finally" before his tweet some people wouldn't have been so sensitive to it. I will say I enjoy some of the responses to the tweet because its not me responding and they're funny.
