ngbills Posted October 6, 2020 Posted October 6, 2020 (edited) This says it all. When folks say "we remember when you said the Bills suck. Cant jump on the bandwagon now". That is whole point. You are only allowed to be positive or you are a hack, know nothing, turd. Bills can only be good. No way they could have sucked and are actually good now. Edited October 6, 2020 by ngbills

My sentiments, exactly. Absolutely no reason to start reading his stuff. You reap what you sow. 58 minutes ago, ngbills said: This says it all.

Bills can only be good. No way they could have sucked and are actually good now. That's not what I remember. I remember him trashing, absolutely trashing, Terrell Owens for being a cancer in Buffalo when he had been a model citizen. I remember him in press conferences trying to lead coaches into saying things that contradicted what others had said. I remember him ripping Anthony Lynn in his very first press conference, hours or days after getting the job. I remember him being contrary just for the sake of being contrary, to the point where nothing he said had any credibility. I remember him believing that he was more important than the story. I don't need to go back to that. 1

Seemed like they were dominant on both sides, but guess it's a case of having a couple superstars like Bruce hid things. Plus that back back everyone was online 24/7 so much less info/stats easily available to fans. yeah those secondaries were really bad I believe.

Straight Hucklebuck Posted October 6, 2020 Posted October 6, 2020 Sullivan was on point for years and Bills fans were in complete denial. Up until Beane and McDermott, the organization was a run down Mom and Pop shop led by Ralph and Russ. Now everyone says see Sullivan was wrong, but they don’t talk about 2006, 2008, 2010, 2012, 2014 and so on when they were dead wrong about Edwards, Gailey, Nix, Whaley, EJ, Sammy and so on. When they talked about how close we were to winning, when they bought the Doug Marrone stock hook line and sinker. 2 1

Not sure why anyone should expect an honest writer to cover the team with rose colored glasses. If you want that should only read the team prepared content. Sully has been here for the entire time the Bills were a laughing stock to most outside of Buffalo. Reality sucks and some people would rather be lied to. 1
May Day 10 Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 Guys like sullivan, schoop, etc really want the Bills (and sabres) to be good. Believe me. Schopp is like giddy right now. Spanning multiple decades, do you think they like covering the groundhog day mediocrity and misery the Bills were and the Sabres have become?
Rochesterian Bills Fan Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 I remember back when the "official" Bills message board was still a thing. Any thread about Sully or his coverage of the team turned into a ***** show. I hadn't thought about him in years until a few days ago and then this thread is posted. It's like I summoned him from the deep.

Billsfan1972 Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 I liked him. He covered the Bills & they generally were at very best mediocre. He was on the right side of the Flutie/Johnson debate and he wrote about a team that generally was always in some form of disarray. He gave honest opinions & asked hard questions. I'd take him over Murf & Tasker and the other paid shills who only spout the Bills line.... 1 2 1

The issue is not whether he was right or wrong, its what Shaw said. He just wanted to belittle people in the org and thought he was more important than the story. 1

He's not just a dinosaur, he's the baby of the older dinosaur who died giving birth to him, so he's a second generation dinosaur. But yeah, I'm old enough to remember when columnists could write, and Jerry is one of those. Jerry is not the dinosaur, he is the dinosaur's body buried and turned into oil products and natural gas (lots of gas). It is why he hates Mr. Pegula making money over his corpse. 💀☠️💩🖤

I think Timmah Graham enjoys it. It seems he has a personal vendetta against the Pegulas.
