Have you watched a Pistons game lately? Puts you right to sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Have you watched a Pistons game lately? Puts you right to sleep. I haven't, then again, I try to avoid the NBA like the plague. But now that you mention it, at least their games are good for something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChasBB Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Thurman Thomas was a LEADER. Who is the leader today? No one. Thurman Thomas had the audacity to write the words "Super Bowl" on his shoes during training camp 1990 as a reminder to himself and his teammates about what the goal is -- and they did it! Who is the guy today on this team with that vision -- AND the ability to contribute and back it up? No one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hossage Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Felton Huggins has to step up and be our leader this year. He has the touch to get his arms around a ball. And a manly name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pimp on da' net Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 He's a fan by saying what he did. He's tired of watching them lose year after year and I'm sure he's hoping the owner, front office and players hear it from a western NY celebrity. What's so funny, the reaction from most of bills nation on this thread, is these are the same comments posted by them....Is TT not a fan also? Typical Buffalonian reaction to criticism, sometimes the truth hurts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chandler#81 Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I remember he wanted to throw Norwood out of the plane after the 91 regular season game against the Raiders. But.. but Norwood won the game with an OT FG!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lori Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 But.. but Norwood won the game with an OT FG!?! Yeah, after missing three field goals and an extra point in regulation. Thurman's postgame quote: "If he would have missed that one, I would have dropped him from the plane somewhere over Minnesota or North Dakota."

billsfreak Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I am glad he doesn't post on these boards. Around here if you post the obvious and it is negative, you get criticism from a bunch of dreamers that want to believe all is rosey at OBD. Real fans don't talk negative about their team, well apparently real fans are blind too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsWatch Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 i am glad i am not the only one who is sick of this sorry team. If it is truly making you sick the doctor's prescription would be to change teams. If you are disappointed understand disappointment is a fact of life.

Guest dog14787 Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Thank you Thurman for telling it like it is. I appreciate his comments and his opinion of Lynch. Normally this would piss me off if it were coming from an outsider but Thurman is one of us and he speaking from his love and passion of this franchise and community. Comments like this coming from a celebrity of our own can't but help our cause for improvement and restoring respectability to this once PROUD organization. Remember, we use to have a slogan "Talkin' Proud"! I haven't heard anyone mutter that in quite some time. Thanks Thurman for speaking up. Talkin Proud, yup, sad when you think about it.

marauderswr80 Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Lets hear him have Bills fans. You bash us poster who say things about the Bills.......lets hear you bash Thurman now who backs up our exact thoughts on this franchise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am glad he is a fan, and him being pissed, shows he cares about them. Not so sure that I agree with him about ML though, come on Thurman, you, and your teamates, were no choirboy group.

SevenandNine Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I remember he wanted to throw Norwood out of the plane after the 91 regular season game against the Raiders. I know it doesn't make for good mainstream fodder, but when will people realize it WASN'T Norwood's fault for missing the kick...it was REICH'S FAULT for not turning the laces! It can be clearly seen on the replay if you look for it. The ball went to the same side the laces were lined up...OUT TO THE RIGHT. Thurman should know this by now. I know Jimbo has acknowledged it.

Not talkin' 'bout the same game. I think you're referencing SBXXV. Thurman and most of us are refering to a reg. season game in 91 @ LA. Norwood had a 'career day' in misses. But, he kicked the game winner in OT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then Gazoo had the interception in OT to set up the FG. I love that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
