Astrobot Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 You gotta love the Horatio Alger story of our coach. He loves this game, and --for now-- everybody loves him. The Wyche-MM story is also the stuff from which movies are made. Maybe someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam is one of the nicest NFL people I've ever met. The guy knew he saw talent in MM. I'm happy he's in Buffalo, both of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsObserver Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 What an excellent read. Thanks for posting the article. I don't know how he survived that time period doing what he was asked to do. I remember the time we were looking for a new coach and it was primarily between Mularkey, Weis and someone else (Crennel, Coughlin, Fassel) and he was the last guy i wanted because of the pittsburgh connection and other ridiculous reasons. I was begging for Weis. As it turns out I couldn't be happier that he became our coach. Even if he doesn't turn out to be the greatest, he's done a good job thus far and seems like he knows what he's doing. The only thing I was critical about was his lack of decision making when it came to personnel (taking Henry out sooner) because he seemed like he hesitated because of how new he was to the team which makes sense, but I still didn't dig it. I think he's turning into a pretty darn good coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsWatch Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Stripes? Stripes as in Zebras those insanely overpaid neatly blind people on the field? "We tried to kill him," said Rich McKay, the former general manager of the Bucs. "He was dying. I don't know if I've ever been around anyone who worked harder. He made nothing, and ended up doing the work of four or five guys. You talk about earning your stripes? This guy earned his stripes." I am not sure if he is complimenting him. Is he related to up'Chuck DICKerson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeyemike Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 The wild part is I remember that. Sam is one of the nicest NFL people I've ever met. The guy knew he saw talent in MM. I'm happy he's in Buffalo, both of them. 442090[/snapback] Fifteen years ago, I absolutely HATED Sam Wyche, because he was the Bengals coach and I was still a fan of my formerly beloved Browns. At one point, Wyche came to Cleveland to raise money for a charity, and volunteered to be put in a dunking booth. If I didn't have to work at a job I had to have at the time, I would have been down there, spending my savings on baseballs to throw. And now I like what he's doing in Buffalo. Life is pretty strange sometimes. Go figure. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightRider Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 I have a feeling that even if this JP-Willis-Lee still make me wish for Jim-Thurman-Andre that by the end of the year Levy-Marchibroda-Corey-DeHaven is going to be replaced by Mularkey-Clements-Gray-April as the best in at least my memory of the Bills.
