Morning sickness?

Sympathetic morning sickness.  Josh would be just the guy to get that.

But I've heard he throws up every game.  Probably just how he handles the stress of the position.

Seeing as how Josh was made for this town, clearly he goes a little to hard at a tailgate before each game.

The franchise deserved to be crapped on during that extended drought, especially in a system designed for competitive balance.

Lol, let's not act like Jerry was some visionary. Betting the under on the old Bills wasn't some bold move.

Jerry sometimes had columns I felt. But his inability to ever be happy made him like every old uncle whose best was past. Absolutely miserable.  

Pumping the well of despair is a cheap stunt to get likes.

Jerry is a reflection of the rise of social media and its influence on reporting and the relationships teams have with the beat reporters who cover them. Too many reporters seem to seek opportunities to make themselves adversaries to the team personnel they want information from and, rightfully so, team personnel are going to be less forthcoming in offering such information. 

I miss the days when reporters like Larry Felser could sit in a hotel bar with a GM, coach, or player and simply have a conversation and establish meaningful relationships. Before and after a win or a loss. Trust is a lost value in journalism nowadays. And we are worse off for it.

Thought meaningful relationship made them part of the club, and they did not betray close confidences if they wanted to stay on the inside.  

Marv referred to Jerry as a jerk.  That says a lot.

Not overofficious tho.

Was that the hottest Marv ever got? Something to do with Bruce?

Can you be a reflection on something you predated by years?

The mustachioed one was convinced the '90 team would stink because they were still the "Bickering Bills."  And he worked for Felser; had he not been such a jerk, he probably could've sat at the bar with Larry and the crew they covered.  The guy has been a jerk for close to 40 years now.  Odds are, he was one before he got a by-line too.
