Buffalo Baumer Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Take a look at his team from an outsider's point of view. It would be like a Bills fan looking at the current Jets squad. How many times have people stated how crappy the Jets are? They have just as many question marks as the Bills and regardless of what people want to think, the Bills will be thrown into the bottom of the barrel until they PROVE otherwise. Until that happens, don't let the nay sayers bug you. You know this team better than they do and nobody really knows what is going to happen. I can completely understand why nobody is talking about this team - they are a bunch of players that remain insignificant in the minds of most writers and other team's fans. At least JP has taken the first step into bringing some cohesiveness to this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#89 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 JP does his stretching and exercise warm ups and cool downs with the O-line. I think that is a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Was McGahee still hanging out with Holcomb? 743881[/snapback] No. Holcomb was seen playing ping pong with Lennox Gordon. But was having trouble getting it over the net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone in this room can be as optimistic as they want to be, but nobody in their right mind would put any money on the Bills to do anything this season. I, personally, was so sick of the TD era, that I'm willing to watch this current bunch of castoffs hopefully get better. I'd rather go 3-13 as long as this team improves and its younger players develop than watch the trash that has taken the field the last 5 or 6 years get worse as the season goes on. This season will be a season where we will develop some younger players, and some future depth when we actually become a contender again. Count this season as 20 pre-season games for next year. As long as our corps of younger players develop and we find a surprise player or two, we can deem it a success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be the first time in a while where I will be looking at individuals throughout the season on a weekly basis instead of the Bills as a team.

Dr. Fong Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Nothing shuts people up or gains their respect quite like winning. I for one am sick of hearing all the whining and excuses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsPride12 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 I agree with you 100% Buffalo Baumer, respect is earned not given out like candy on Halloween. I love the Bills more than just about everything but our team has been in shambles over the last few years(even that year we lucked out and went 9-7).

diver Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 In a few weeks the team will be playing for real. All year long I come to Two Bills Drive and read all the posts. Its part of my morning ritual. Its hard to say that the season is just like another long pre-season. You never know what will happen. Every Sunday I kept pumped up cheering on my team. Losing sucks but I love the Bills like no other. Do the best you can guys! Go Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Baumer Posted August 16, 2006 Author Share Posted August 16, 2006 If this team can dig up a few more guys that have an upside like Kyle Williams, there could be a reason to be cautiously optimistic. I've got the fingers crossed and actually love the fact that most people think this team is garbage. There is no place to go but up!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
