vorpma Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 14 hours ago, The Bills Blog said: One Bills Live was hilarious today. Despite the strong and widespread reports that AB essentially nixed the trade, Murph and Tasker continued to deny it and scolded every caller who mentioned it. It was embarrassing. Damage control straight from OBD. Clearly trying to control the message. They also claimed that there is not a stigma around Buffalo despite the flogging the city took from the media and NFL players during this ordeal. Interesting that as soon as Bulldog came on, the message was totally different. I assume this information is from your insider "bat phone" linked into the Front Office and AB's personal study?

Brown and his agent have been talking to the media for weeks about his new contract demands. None of this would have been a surprise to the Bills. The idea that that’s why the deal died is pure OBD spin, and yet folks here are lapping it up... 1

In the end I'm just glad it didn't happen. It sounds like it was never that close to happening. Rapaport must be pissed at his source that gave him that info.

All I could find was Brown saying that he wanted a new deal that gave him guaranteed money (even though he's still got $11.4M left in unamortized bonus with his last Steelers contract). 5 minutes ago, Mark92 said: It sounds like it was never that close to happening. Rapaport must be pissed at his source that gave him that info. Yeah. And it also sounds like it was never supposed to be made public. I wonder who the rat who leaked that info was?

Really silly post; no one on this board is "strangely welcoming of that fact or even embracing" losing; most of us understand that winning is not going to happen over night and will take time after 16 years of really bad organizational decisions and an ingrained losing culture. Sorry kids, you can throw temper tantrums all day and scream for your fast food happy meal much like what happened from 2001 - 2017; the rest of us want long term sustained success, understand the game and will give this regime a chance. 2
KGun12TD Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 That show is dreadful! Poorly produced and Murph should stick to radio...UGH!!!

billsfan_34 Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 State run media at its finest! OBD, the Instigators, and the Sabres Broadcasters are Pegula puppets.
MJS Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 I agree that Tasker and Murphy were overzealous. What they don't realize is that there is also no real evidence that Brown did NOT cancel the trade. He very well could have. So it goes both ways.

I listed to 2 hours and your translation of the show couldnt be furether than the truth. then you must not have listened very hard. It was clear PR control most likely ordered from Bills PR staff. It could not have been any more obvious. This show was the only one on any media platform trying to spin this story into something it was not. Edited March 9, 2019 by cba fan 1

Yeah but the great thing is this is a free country. You can choose to listen to it or not and choose to follow another team if you want

Or Murphy and Tasker are just fans of the team and like to spin things positive. Doesn't mean they were ordered to by Pegula. 1

That said, they are owned by the Bills. What would you expect? Edited March 9, 2019 by fansince88
