bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 Understandable. I'm the same way. But we might as well look for other candidates. Then again, I'm no more in the loop than you are, so who really knows. 528843[/snapback] Maybe we can get that cabbie that Berman knew in the old days to start talking about what move Ralph will be making. I just cant believe the TD era will continue much more Ralph wants to win the big one or at least be competative again.
JoeF Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 I heard JJ is really interested in the sport of competitive ice fishing...what a better place to hone your skill. All that hairspray will shield him from the cold..plus now he can crush a box of Flutie Flakes in our locker room and it would be okay.... I think there is a lot of substance to this rumor...we should start a new thread..from Son of Satan to Pork faced Satan..
Zac Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 I despise the guy but.. You have to be a pretty damn good coach to get 53 coke heads together to win a superbowl.

Tcali Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 Just my opinion but: 1) No way Ralph wants Johnson. Too high of a pricetag and the two never exactly got along during JJ's days in Dallas and Miami. 2) No way Johnson wants Buffalo. He won't have total control (not with Wilson around), and he won't get the money he would from other franchises. 528731[/snapback] Pay him RALPHHHHH!!!--so you die with $620 million instead of $650 million!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PromoTheRobot Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 Ralph Wilson probably did ask Jimmy Johnson to coach the Bills. He only stopped laughing when he had to go on the air on Fox pre-game. PTR
JoeF Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 Pay him RALPHHHHH!!!--so you die with $620 million instead of $650 million!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 528875[/snapback] lets see-a $25,000 investment in 1960 returns annual income in the low 8 figures and is now worth at least $400 million...I think Ralph has the money to spend on a coach. What a great time to take on an additional investor like Tom G., Bob Rich or Jeremy Jacobs so that we have a smooth transition...
jarthur31 Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 This is funny. Do you know what kind of salary he would command? Will Ralph even consider such a thing? There, you answered your own question.
Bear Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 You know, if TSW was representative of the world, this thread would equal the complete collapse of modern civilization.
Bill from NYC Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 I would rather see the Bills continue to lose than to hire Johnson. This is a man who has frequently taunted us, and worse....has a propensity toward bringing in criminals. JJ is not the only person who can make us a winner. Frankly, he didn't do so well in Miami, and I don't know what makes people think that he would thrive in Buffalo.

He won't have total control (not with Wilson around), and he won't get the money he would from other franchises. 528731[/snapback] Ralph isn't getting any younger and I think he has finally realized that if he wants to win now he can't keep gambling on unproven coaches. IMHO he may, just may pony up the coin to get JJ in here. Personally, I'd love the move.
30dive Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 Winning solves all problems! As hard as this might be to swallow, JJ is a winner. He has passion, we hated him in Dallas and Miami because when he beat us he let the world know he beat us! Confidence and passion, we could use a good dose of that around here. A football guy who knows how to win, yea that would suck!
OnTheRocks Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 i saw it and jimmy said no he is NOT GOING TO BUFFALO which means he is coming of course lol lol how 'bout them bills! 528364[/snapback] i haven't read the entire thread so i don't know if this was mentioned...but JJ was caught between a rock and a Marino. he had the power to either dump, trade or sit Marino and develop the offense he wanted but somehow he didn't have the balls to pull the trigger on dumping Marino....who at the time, obviously was "ALL EVERYTHING" to everyone in South Florida. Sort of the same boat the Packers are in with Favre right now.
Buckeye Eric Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 Ralph isn't getting any younger and I think he has finally realized that if he wants to win now he can't keep gambling on unproven coaches.

He took over a Cowboys team that already had talent. He went to Miami and fell on his face.

Hell, for all we know Moulds might do the same. This is an unkind world sir, that's why I say- JJ or bust!!

Frankly, he didn't do so well in Miami, and I don't know what makes people think that he would thrive in Buffalo. 529202[/snapback] Well maybe you would like to see the Bills continue to lose than hire Johnson, but not me. I wanna win a fuggin superbowl before I die. If it is gonna take Johnson to have complete control of the franchise to do it I could give a rats ass. Taunted us? What are you talking about? Got any other names in mind right now that are credible as head coaches? And didn't he take Miami to the playoffs two out of his three years there? And build a killer defense. But, why bring in a coach whi has THREE superbowls that makes no sense. Lets go after a coordinater or a college coach who is unproven. Dumb! Our last two have been home runs maybe the third will be a charm . People who are stuck in the 90's with the Jim Kelly era need to get over it. It's 2005 and we haven't won a playoff game in 10 years. If it's about us getting back in the playoffs then Ralph should pony up the money and bring in JJ. I'm sick of fuggin MEDIOCRITY!
jester43 Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 I'm sick of fuggin MEDIOCRITY! 529521[/snapback] sick of it? hell i'd do backflips right now if we could suddenly be that good.
