bizell Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Tim, thoughts/opinions on Trent Edwards? Some on this board see him as the second coming of Jesus Christ. I'm of the camp that he hasn't really proven anything yet other than an inability to stay healthy.
Haven Moses Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Tim, What kind of wombat? http://www.wombania.com/wombats/wombat-classification.htm Although wombats have sometimes been classified into numerous species and subspecies, it is now generally accepted that there are only three distinct species left. Vombatus ursinus (Common wombat) Sometimes called Phascolomis ursinus Vombatus ursinus hirsutus (Mainland Common wombat subspecies) Vombatus ursinus tasmaniensis (Tasmanian wombat subspecies) Vombatus ursinus ursinus (Flinders Island wombat subspecies) Lasiorhinus latifrons (Southern hairy-nosed wombat) Lasiorhinus krefftii (Northern hairy-nosed wombat)
BEAST MODE BABY! Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 Tim, I have a Jason Peters question. There seems to be some debate regarding how much his play really dropped off last year. As a fan, I saw him directly responsible for at least 2 turnovers. Stats have him giving up 11.5 sacks last season in 13 games...the most sacks/game played than any other starting LT in the league. Yet he was elected to the Pro Bowl. What is the real story on Jason Peters? What do coaches and/or players say about him? After what seemed to be a lackluster season, he is asking (for all intents and purposes) to be the highest paid LT in the league.
Simon Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 He was considered good enough on that staff that Cam Cameron, an offensive guru who has been a great coordinator at many stops and insisted on calling the plays in Miami, secretly turned over the play-calling duties to Mularkey. The team was going down like the Titanic by then, but it indicated the respect Mularkey has within the coaching ranks. And we saw what Mularkey did with the Falcons last year. He'll be a head coach again, maybe next year. thank you
Booster4324 Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 Is Tim coming back or did the Mort thing chase him off? Lori?
lets_go_bills Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 Tim, can you comment on the news that Crowell is to meet with Bills officials?
Lori Posted March 14, 2009 Author Posted March 14, 2009 Is Tim coming back or did the Mort thing chase him off? Lori? He's been in Buffalo for a good part of the week, tracking down info and conducting interviews for the T.O. story ESPN put online yesterday. (You'll notice he hasn't been blogging lately, either, while he worked on that.) And per an e-mail earlier this afternoon, he's a little under the weather, so it might be a couple more days before we see him here. My .02 on the Mort thing: we don't ask Bills players why their teammates stink, or write to Mark Gaughan and Allen Wilson to B word about Sully, do we? (I dunno, maybe some of you do.) I think everyone's pretty much agreed to stop complaining to Tim about his colleague ... and yeah, in my opinion, that's a good thing.

I have one quibble, it is a minor one...but, one that has bugged me since McGagee made his stupid remarks. It tweaked me again, because Wiley resurrected it, and Tim decided to end the article with it. WNY (including Buffalo) is really not an Applebee's or Friday's kind of town. Buffalo is local joint heaven. Now, of course there are Applebee's and Friday's in the area, but that's not where the bulk of real WNY's hang out, IMO. I think local WNY's know that well, but those not familiar with the area might get the idea that WNYers really believe Applebee's is a "Neighborhood Grill and Bar"...it is not. Jacksonville is a chain restaurant kind of town. That's where people go, around here. Yes, there are some local gems (and that's where I go), but the good ones are scarce, and the chains seem to get most of the action. Buffalo is a completely different kind of town.
TimGraham Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Sorry I haven't been around, folks. I've been battling some sort of nastiness doctors can't seem to classify. I came down with it my last night in Buffalo and it sent me to the ER as soon as I returned home. I'm at my computer for the first time in four days and when I was working it was solely on the T.O. story. I can't remember the last time I visited my usual sites, including TBD. Maybe a week ago. So I'm getting caught up on everything I've missed. It'll be a bit slow for a few more days, but I hope to be around a little here and there.
Lori Posted March 16, 2009 Author Posted March 16, 2009 Beware ... he lives! Don't worry 'bout us. Just get better, dude.

You should NEVER eat food at "those type" of establishments! Get better.

Alphadawg7 Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Feel better Tim! Hot topic on the boards has clearly moved from T.O. to now Cutler...there seem to be rumors swirling about alleged Buffalo interest in Cutler if Broncos decide to move him for the right offer, especially now with Cutler officially requesting a trade. Clearly there is rampant speculation on various message boards, but have you heard anything outside the message boards that would indicate to you that Buffalo has already or plans to inquire about Cutler?
ax4782 Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Tim, Can you please put this Cutler trade to Buffalo nonsense to rest. People are (for whatever reason) going crazy over this, and it seems like there's no way this can be true. Buffalo trading away for a QB who has just as much to prove as Edwards doesn't seem to make any sense. Anyway, tell us what, if anything, you've heard so we can put this baby to rest. Thanks.
The Dean Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Feel better Tim! Hot topic on the boards has clearly moved from T.O. to now Cutler...there seem to be rumors swirling about alleged Buffalo interest in Cutler Where? I mean, where in the legitimate press, are these rumors? Maybe I missed something...wouldn't be the first time. But, from what I have read, all the talk is simply forum stuff, with no actual sources. A rumor from ESPN, Buffalo News...hell even PFT with a legit source is different than guys like us discussing it on a football forum. Like I said, maybe I've just missed it.

Dean, did you read my whole post? That was my precise point...all alleged rumors are centralized on message boards...which is why I asked Tim if he had heard anything from something credible outside these message boards. I too had not been able to find any credible info on real Buffalo interest, just what is speculated on these and other boards.
