  1. For those who doubt Whaley, look around the league at the players he's let walk. Kiko (out, again), Spiller (completely useless in NO), Byrd (hurt/wants to retire), Fitz (we all know this one), and I'm sure there's more. Compare that to who he's brought in, drafted, and kept. Doug Whaley has built himself a very solid foundation

    Not good

     

    @ChrisBrownBills

    No McCoy, Watkins or Miller at practice. We'll get their status for Sunday post practice. #Bills

     

    Whaley has made a believer out of me after a rocky start.  Maybe that rocky start was just the process of getting away from Buddy Nix's esteemed tenure?

     

     

    I've been expecting them to be out all week, so I'm not surprised at all.  It cuts down our offensive depth a lot this week.  Less play makers against a team who can score worries me.  Urbik should be fine for Miller, I'm hoping.

  2.  

    Another great episode.  I hope that girl in the wheelchair is able to see the special video that was done just for her.  I would love to see a video of her watching it.  What a heartwarming gesture.

     

    The way we treat these refugees, who are refugees due to US in a large part, is ######-up.

  3. There's an app I downloaded for Android called "Pro Football Radio and Scores".  It costs .99 but it has worked for listening to pro football games when I've used it.  I used to use NFL mobile, but I had a lot of issues with it crashing and being slightly undependable.  This year I didn't get automatically renewed for the NFL mobile radio service like previous years, (they never even contacted me) so I decided to look around and I'm glad I did.

  4. Bought Mets tickets a while ago for the game vs. Cincinnati yesterday and thanks to great fortune, it happened to be the game they clinched the NL East.  Great scene in Cincinnati.  Many Mets fans made the trip and the Reds were gracious hosts. They congratulated the Mets on the scoreboards at the end of the game.  The crowd was probably 35-40% Mets fans and many loud "Let's go Mets!" chants broke out throughout the game.  The best sign I saw was "I was 12 the last time this happened!"


     


    Now on to the Dodgers in the NLDS.  Tight race for home field as the Mets have a 1/2 game lead and the tie breaker.  We'll see how the last week goes.  Feels great to be in the playoffs again (finally) and have a reason to watch postseason baseball.


  5. My thoughts:

     

    Our O-Line sucks.

     

    Our $250 million D-Line sucks.  There is no excuse for this.  Why is Kyle Williams the only one even getting any occasional pressure?

     

    WTF is up with that constant train sound in the stadium?  It makes it almost unwatchable on tv.  I can't imagine it's pleasant or helpful in the actual stadium.

     

    I have no faith in our WRs.  Yes, Tyrod wasn't great, but our "playmakers" weren't helping.  Watkins should have had that last pass as our "elite" receiver.

     

    Next week vs. Miami is the real measuring stick for our season.  They are about on the same level as we are, and we need to beat teams like that for any hope at the playoffs. 

     

    NE is still better than us and it wasn't as close as the final score indicated.  466 yards passing for Brady???  :sick:

  6. Getting closer and closer.  On paper, I feel confident.  In reality, nervous and ready to get it started!


    Found this on TBD:

     

    @AlbertBreer

    Bills players buzzing about the talk that Rex Ryan gave them at the team hotel last night, ahead of Pats showdown. Gist: "Enough is enough."

     

     

     

    The fans couldn't agree more, Rex.

  7. The Jonny Flynn (Go Orange!) bobbleheads at the end was hilarious.  The guy who sent them was on reddit and is a Timberwolves season ticket holder.  He bought several cases of Jonny Flynn bobbleheads at a Timberwolves preseason game when they were selling all the old crap they had laying around for $60 total.  He sent a case to John Oliver's church as a donation.  He also travels alot for work and takes one with him each time and leaves them in random places :w00t:

  8. Great episode as usual.  I disagree with those who say he's peaked or not as good.  This country will always need someone like John Oliver.

     

    To the video above:  every problem, including this one, can be traced back to money and greed.  How can we continue to feed the law enforcement/prison industrial complex if people can defend themselves against charges, which we all supposedly have a right to do?
