DeeRay Posted August 21, 2004 Posted August 21, 2004 just a week ago when Henry stated he' want to be traded if he loses his starting job, most of the post were calling for henry's head and saying he wasn't a team player. well, well, well.... mcgahee says a similar sort of thing and I don't hear boo about wanting his head or saying he aint a team player. Instead you blame it on the gd media. so what's with the rush to judement on henry and not on mcgahee? And I thought the only sacred cow was bledsoe.... now we have mcgahee a sacred cow too? Well I'll give you my 2 cents on mcgahee... at least henry proved himself with 4100 yards from scrimage in the past three seasons, played hurt, worked hard, and shut his trap... until this mcgahhe issue cropped up. mcgahee gets 58 yards against a bunch of 2nd and third stringers in a home preseson game and declares himself god and says he starts on opening day, or it's the highway. Fug you willis!!! you earned a lot of $$$ last year as a spectator while Henry was busting his balls and playing hurt while enduring a miserable and disapointing bills season. we do things up here different in buffalo. prove it! earn it! beat travis out fair and square before you open your trap. I think what would be warranted in this case is a shower of boos from the fans at the Ralph when Willis trots out onto the field. Let him know what we think of prima donnas.
Guest Matt in DC | CD nittam Posted August 21, 2004 Posted August 21, 2004 Chill out, dude. Bills Daily says WM is denying the trade comment. AP is reporting that Willis McGahee has asked for a trade if he isn't starting on opening day. The Bills have talked to McGahee and he denies any truth to the rumor. Travis was clumsy with his words... it happens. WM never said it. I'm sure we'll hear several quotes about this today from the PS game press coverage.
FranDaMan Posted August 21, 2004 Posted August 21, 2004 Well, I agree with what you said with one small exception...do we REALLY know he said what is being reported? Considering the reputation of the apparent source of this story it may be all stretched out of proprtion. Perhaps he did say if he does this or that this season and yada yada yada, he would like a trade next season to be the feature back elsewhere and earn the major bling he thinks he desreves. After all, the Bills did a major stretch to pull him in with that high of a pick and the contract is structured such that if he does well and (God forbid) Travis goes down, he could indeed hit big incentive money real soon. And his GD agent ain't saying yea or nay because he doesn't have to...all the publicity is already there putting the spotlight on his boy. Go Bills, let's do a little Music City Mauling tonight!
millbank Posted August 21, 2004 Posted August 21, 2004 There were many posts yesterday upset with the comments of yesterday. But many want to know for sure that Willis did say what the supposed source said. Travis on the other hand clearly made the comments. Can't be happy with either making such comments but can only hope if it is what each think they will bpth put their best efforts on the field to proove they belong the first back. No one can argue at this time Travis has proven that as he has done it....
Thurman's Helmet Posted August 21, 2004 Posted August 21, 2004 Assume for a second its true. Travis Henry has a proven track record in the NFL. What exactly has McGahee accomplished?
Nanker Posted August 21, 2004 Posted August 21, 2004 The obvious solution is to cut them both right now. We don't need anybody on this team that doesn't want be a Bill forever regardless of what they're being paid. [/sARCASM]
Kelly the Dog Posted August 21, 2004 Posted August 21, 2004 Actually, neither of them has ever said that they demand or even want to be traded.
