The Dean Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 I'd love to know who green-lighted this move. Probably Brandon over DJ's objections. Wouldn't it be funny to see Owens and Schonert sniping at each other. TS: "I knew Bill Walsh" TO: "Who's that? I don't care anyway, I'm a HOF'er!" Brandon isn't making player moves over DJ's head. I swear you have no sense of responsibilities when it comes to the Bills FO.
3 left feet Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 TOs gonna look b@d@ss in the throwbacks.....hells yes
sds7973 Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 Well... My buddy and i are renewing. We have Bills sidelines seats and I can't wait to see this soap opera unfold. We got better today end of story. The Bills have been as conservative as Limbaugh and i for one is glad to see the old man has shaken it up. Let's Go Bills!!! Where's my popcorn !?
PNW_Bills_Fan Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 This signing is good at many levels. 1. The fan base has been disgusted with front office for keeping DJ. They are getting more and more uneasy about not making the playoffs. The team needed to do something big to give the fans something to celebrate. This signing will put fans in the stands. It will get merchandise sold. This will also get us national media. This is a good move for this reason. 2. The Bills needed another WR. so they went out and signed one of the best WR in the game. As a fan I am not sure how you complain about this. It gives us another year to develop Hardy and Johnson. I also think Parrish is gone. This is a good move to help us develop our young talent. 3. This is a one year deal. The bills are not out much if he doesn't workout. Brandon showed he has a pair. This is a gutsy move. This could be a horrible move, but at least he was willing to go out on a limb. This is a good signing.

5 Wide Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 I'm waiting for a crawl on channel two to say that Bass Pro is opening and the construction is about to begin on new Peace Bridge
BillsGuyInMalta Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 https://www.buffalobillsproshop.com/index.cfm Pre-ordered my jersey with the patch on it! I was out eating when I heard the news (and the restaurant exploded). Came home, checked on the Wall, and ordered my TO jersey.
The Dean Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 I'm waiting for a crawl on channel two to say that Bass Pro is opening and the construction is about to begin on new Peace Bridge So, you're saying you'll believe it when you see it?
MaineMoxie Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 I wish he would have signed a 2 or 3 year deal. No you don't. Trust me. 1 year is good. Any more and he'll become unbearable to live with.
DrDawkinstein Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 holy cow! i knew something was up when my cell phone started blowing up. 30 text messages later, this is what we have... not sure how i feel about this yet. my initial reaction was "well, there is the sexy name everyone has been begging for. careful what you wish for" i dont know. im going to take the time to read this thread and digest it all...
cåblelady Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 i dont know. im going to take the time to read this thread and digest it all... You'll get heartburn.
The Dean Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 Hope he leads the league in drops I thought you were a Bills' fan.
Adam Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 I thought you were a Bills' fan. I thought I was too....I'm just not sure anymore. I could have backed them through an 0-16 season, but I don't know if I can watch him in a Bills uniform I'll probably get over it, but I am fed up with the NFL over their lack of caring about the concussion issue- they made that CRYSTAL clear
Virgil Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 CAN YOU.....FEEL A.......BRAND NEW DAAAAAYYYYYYY!!!!!!!! *points to anyone who gets this.
KD in CA Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 I love it. Plus of all the idiots around the league, TO actually plays his ass off. He blocks. He tries. I think he lights a fire under the Bills, and just gets Hardy and Johnson a year to mature. It should make the offense exciting and a threat to score. Now, just get a TE and we could be exciting. Ralphie is nuts. I love it. This is what I see too. For all his faults, he's a veteran guy that has been on a lot of winning teams. Not having vets who can provide an example on the field has hurt the Bills. TO can give them confidence and credibility and provide the kick in the ass that might be needed from time to time. I can't believe there are people who are not thrilled with this signing. Owens is still a premier player in this league. When was the last time the Bills had a guy of this caliber on their team? For that matter, when was the last time the Bills had any high impact, premier player on the roster? Is there a risk he blows up? Sure, but what exactly is the downside? They were 0-6 in the AFCE and Miami and the Jets are improving. They gotta try. Great decision.
