BillsGuyInMalta Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 Bills | Team in a fighting mood Sat, 8 Apr 2006 14:41:30 -0700 Chris Brown, of BuffaloBills.com, reports Buffalo Bills players engaged in two fights at minicamp Saturday, April 8. S Matt Bowen and RB Lionel Gates got into it. Bowen facemasked Gates to the ground, but Gates appeared to shove Bowen's facemask up into his chin and nicked him. Three other players were needed to separate them. Meanwhile TE Robert Royal and DL Chris Kelsay got into a shoving match. After practice was over, head coach Dick Jauron spoke to the team and stated the need to discipline themselves. He said if something gets heated they have to have the discipline to walk away because they need everybody on this roster healthy, and beating each other up in the spring is not an option.
MartyBall4Buffalo Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 Good. I think this team should be angry. They haven't had a personality to them in awhile, as long as they get it in order and use their anger on game day instead of acting like mindless drones I for one am happy that at least someone is angry even if they're newbies. I know all of this is probably nothing, but I'll take any news I can get right now.
Lv-Bills Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 As pissed as I am about some of these horseshit players we've gotten this offseason.......Is this a sign of players, formerly of Washington, having a better practice work ethic then our Bills, who were tutored under Meathead Mike? I mean really, Bowen and Royal from the Joe Gibbs regime, maybe going at it a little too rough for our Bills players who went through Camp Meathead in the past. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm. I like it!
Dan Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 I would have rather read that Jauron told the players... they better be fighting, because some of them will have to be cut and only fighters and guys that want to play and win will make it past those cuts. Rather, than telling them to calm down and walk away.
Mark VI Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 Excellent ! I hope they double the fights tomorrow.

BillsGuyInMalta Posted April 8, 2006 Author Posted April 8, 2006 If you had to choose, what two Bills would you like to see fight each other? Honestly I've got to give it to Brian Moorman vs JP Losman...it'll be the most white fight ever...lots of slapping and name calling I'm guessing.

I want them to carry a chip on thier shoulder and prove last season was a fluke.

AMEN TO THAT, at least some of these guys have a pulse. hopefully this new regime will motivate these guys better than mike m did. the team seemed so out of control last year with the qb issues,EM,Sam A, et al. maybe these newbies will bring some heart to this team, even if they can't win games.

Imagine JP stepping hard into a solid jab to the throat of Brian Moorman and the fight being over in 4 seconds.

Frez Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 Remember Damien Covington body slamming the offensive lineman to the ground and Marv laughing about it? I want to say it was Glen Parker but i'm not sure that's correct. Covington was a wrestling champ (RIP). I always liked that undersized LB.

MartyBall4Buffalo Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 Parrish with a cheesburger strapped to his back Vs. Bennie Anderson 656784[/snapback] Yeah but thats kind of unfair parrish would just outrun fat bennie. You'd have to even the playing field like put snow on the ground where parrish would become a deer in headlights.

I have seen many fights and been in a couple.. I did not see any slapping... maybe i'm missing something but this statement is bothersome..

Rico Posted April 9, 2006 Posted April 9, 2006 Yeah but thats kind of unfair parrish would just outrun fat bennie.656793[/snapback] Depends on how hungry Bennie is. Don't feed him for half-a-day & watch him move. I'd like to see Coy Wire vs. Liam Ezekiel.
Corp000085 Posted April 9, 2006 Posted April 9, 2006 not much to add here, but a report of a fistfight in a voluntary minicamp is more heart than i've seen in 8 years.
