Alaska Darin Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 We can do this all day. Oh goody. But i will address your points. Gee, thanks. Lets go back in timeIf you said the internet is great because i can bring my complaints here, then how are you not saying that the internet is great for keeping controversial discussions alive? I'm saying it's great because "I" can blast you. Nothing more. If i complain about something and you respond.... how is that not keeping something alive?And you said you think its great. So it seems to me like you are contradicting yourself. I'm happy for you. This is bullcrap and you know it.First of all. You keep exposiing yourself more and more by reading and responding. No one is holding a gun to your head. Actually, I keep responding because I like to blast lemmings. I do that instead of golf. It may or may not be a sickness. You can ignore me if you don't like what i'm saying. Thanks for the permission. I was waiting patiently. Otherwise you can argue my point and defend TKO. So far all you have done is criticize me for bringing up the topic in the 1st place. Uh, the reason I'm blasting you is I don't feel the need to defend Spikes. Hello?

VABills Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 772769[/snapback] Thinks Aaron Brooks would be a better safety.
Crap Throwing Monkey Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 Thinks Aaron Brooks would be a better safety. 772770[/snapback] Can we just resurrect the old TD is Satan thread, but cut and past "Takeo" for "Donahoe"? It'll save everyone a LOT of time...
Like A Mofo Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 Sounds like someone has Pennington on the fantasy football team... I had Spikes...but I just cut him, since he quit on the season. I hear he supports al Qaeda, too... 772754[/snapback] Maybe a "Spikes Is the Son of Satan" thread needs to be created?

It'll save everyone a LOT of time... 772773[/snapback] I believe Marv is now the satan. He is doing all these stupid things. Youth movement. Cutting vets and demanding an unproven rookie take over. Not addressing the oline. Allowing the coaches to bring in their rejects and get rid of future HOFers (Gates for Atrain)

RkFast Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 Not crazy about what Spikes said. IMO, players should not vent like this to the media. It does no good and does affect the team's psyche. For example, if youve got a respected senior guy or gal in your office popping off like this while walking the hallways, it affects everyone's morale. Same thing here. But with that said, I can completely understand why he would feel this way and this should be something that like any good rant, should be forgotten by...er.....lunch. Now...if hes going to pop off like this regularly, thats a problem.
VABills Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 Don't forget not getting Aaron Brooks. 772785[/snapback] Exactly.
kegtapr Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 Sometimes I hate the internet as much as I hate the "regular" media. 772571[/snapback] If you don't like it why don't you just leave.
VABills Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 If you don't like it why don't you just leave. 772790[/snapback] What other board would accept him? He's not exactly the most sociable guy.
Crap Throwing Monkey Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 What other board would accept him? He's not exactly the most sociable guy. 772793[/snapback] The Land Of Misfit Toys will accept anyone...
kegtapr Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 What other board would accept him? He's not exactly the most sociable guy. 772793[/snapback] I'm serious. I know I made fun of these people at first but I'm starting to see the light. If Spikes is pissed, a proven veteran leader then everyone who looks up to him for guidence will be pissed as well. At least half the team must be pissed at this point! You'll see....you'll all be proven wrong. You may see the first team strike in the history of the NFL.
kegtapr Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 Don't forget to include what he said so people can make a good decision. Here's a recap of TKO's comments: "I quit on the season. I want out." Okay. Now people can vote correctly. 772722[/snapback] Voter tampering! No campaigning within 5 threads of the polling place.
daquixers_is_back Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 I'm sorry.I like Takeo spikes as much as the next Bills fan. But he really needs to keep his mouth shut and be a team leader. He may or may not be right. But it's not like the Bills cut the guy. And bringing this into the media was a very dumb, immature thing to do on his part. He is not wrong to feel that way he is wrong for running to the newspaper and putting the young players in a tough spot. He needs to suck it up and do what is best for the team and understand that he is not the GM or the coach. And I know people are going to come back at me with 'He's a pro bowl veteran, he has the right to say what he wants'. Well I have the right to go burn a flag in my front yard, that doesn't make it right. I'm just saying what i think we would all be saying if it wasn't almost any other player besides spikes who uttered those iditotic remarks. 772567[/snapback] SHUT UP!!!
daquixers_is_back Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 Ok. Now that I got the "shut up" out of my system. For goodness sakes people. If Jim Kelly said this in 1992 no one would give a crap. Heck, everyone would be praising him for being the leader and defending one of his own players.
5 Wide Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 UH OH I JUST FOUND THIS: Spikes Leaves Practice By JOHN WAWROW, Associated Press Last updated: 12:06 p.m., Thursday, September 14, 2006 ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Frustration flared to the surface about an hour into Bills practice Thursday morning. After completing some light jogging on the sideline, Takeo Spikes stormed out of the fieldhouse following a heated discussion with coach Dick Jauron. Spikes, who was the most vocal figure to comment on the controversy regarding Troy Vincents seemingly unceremonious relegation to the IR had sharp comments as he left the facility. While leaving the parking lot in his black Range Rover, Spikes took a moment to speak with several reporters amidst a driving rain. "I'm tired, tired of losing, tired of pouring my heart and soul into all this only to be let down. I worked my butt off to get back into shape to help this defense make a stand this season. I'm not here to be no wet nurse to some rookies who look good in shorts. I want out, whatever has to happen make it happen but I want out. I was reading a message board on my blackberry this morning and Major is right, please Trade me". LINK
EndZoneCrew Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 I love when people make stupid comments and don't respond......nice
