TheFunPolice Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 Tim Murray really blew the fruits of the tank, many of which were left by Darcy. Murray is the shopper who goes to the grocery store with $100 and comes back with burgers and frozen French fries and has no idea where the rest of the money went. 2
bbb Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 All my life, the Bills moving has been hanging over my city like the Sword of Damocles. All my life, all anybody wanted was an owner for the Sabres and Bills who would spend their money, hire people to do the hockey and football operations, and get out of the way. We have all that now, and all I hear is anti-Pegula crap. I get the teams are horrible right now, but they spent the money. The people they hired screwed the teams up. 1
TheFunPolice Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 THE BILLS SITUATION IS NOT HORRIBLE! Extremely rich owners committed to keeping the team here 5-5 record 2 1st round picks next season 2 2nd round picks next season plenty of cap room and an owner who likes to spend Benjamin under contract for 2018. And even after gutting the team a bit, a decent mathematical chance to sneak into the playoffs THIS YEAR. THAT is horrible? THAT is depressing? LOL 1

GreggTX Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 Only Bills fans LOL. I guess firing everyone half way through their first season isn't good enough. Let's sell the owners too! Why don't people see it? It's all about 2018. The Pegulas will be fine as long as they're willing to spend. They just need to find the right GM and HC to spend it on. 1

They knew they'd tank when they let Dareus go, though maybe not so much. Tyrod is soon to follow and perhaps Shady too. Shaq as well if he doesn't start playing better.

The same way they got the extra first for JP. Trade this year's second and next year's first. Or, maybe something closer to what they did to get McCargo at 26 overall, a second and third. (Rodgers went at 24) Or, they could have not pushed it and traded away that first round pick for JP to begin with. If it was a second and third, that is not so high a price when you are not sure you have the next guy on your roster. And there was no way to be sure JP was the next guy. But you have a point, that is in hindsight. Nobody knew Aaron Rodgers would be Aaron Rodgers, except the draft gurus I guess. This will be painful to review! They could have just went with Drew Bledsoe for another year until a blue chip prospect came along. Not having done that, they could have probably traded that year's second and next years first to get Aaron Rodgers, who was a blue chip prospect that fell down the board for reasons I still don't know completely. Trading that year's second would have cost them Roscoe Parrish. That year's third would cost them Kevin Everett. Next year's first would have been either Donte Whitner or John McCargo. So I get your point they sure wouldn't have wanted to go out and do that again, trade up again the very next year. But it wouldn't have cost them an arm and a leg either way.

BadLandsMeanie Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 2 hours ago, Fadingpain said: This sort of discussion quickly breaks down into unyielding positions coming from two camps. First, we have the fans who are just happy to have teams in Buffalo, and they are willing to forgive anything, including the team sucking, as long as it is in Buffalo. They approach the entire debate from an assumed position of weakness, like we are just Buffalo and can't really expect or hope for more than crap anyway. Second, you have the fans who demand more than that. Put me in the second category. Run the franchises correctly or sell. If market forces move the teams, so be it. Who here is crying every day over the loss of the Buffalo Braves? Time heals all wounds; it might take a generation, but people in WNY will forget all about the Bills soon enough, particularly when all Buffalo Bills fans are dead. You guys are Soft. Mushy. Cynical. Y'all can push to sell the team and build a new age crystal and aroma therapy stadium to gather in and commune with the universe when my bunch is under the turf. But til then we are not dead yet porky.

The problem here and the problem in America is that the internet gives trolls the ability to broadcast their deranged thoughts to the rest of the species. AS well as you Coach. Not that Terry would ever read this BS but what would he think of your hot take right now if he did? How about giving McD at least 2-3 years before tweaking out on ownership? I do think the Rex Ryan hiring was a rookie owner mistake but not going to throw him under the bus like you. It does not matter what you, myself or the media says, they straight up OWN the Buffalo Bills and Sabres and can honestly do whatever the F they want with it.

mead107 Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 For all you wacky people just !@#$ing leave. Go some place else. Does your work and family life suck also? Most of you just say crap to piss people off because you are keyboard wacks. Do you even come to the games? 1
