I have to vent.. It may not make any sense but the Bills REALLY
disappointed me this weekend. Then I thought back and did some
thinking so look out!
(disclaimer: this is a rant so it may not make a damn bit of sense)
Now Ive been a Bills fan for quite some time. Up until they hired Marv
Levy as the GM (aka Brutus the dog as the MD3 President) I thought they
wanted to win.. gave it the old heave ho to the bad and useless players
and at least TRIED to bring in new possibly talented players around
free agency / the draft (SEE Bryce Paup, SEE Takeo Spikes).
Not anymore.. those days are gone. gone gone GONE. Marv comes in to
change the Donahoe regime and drafts/signs.. (in an old man voice)
"those nice boys that play marbles down the street on the corner next
to the nickle and dime barber shop".
Up until last year when we got Stroud (dont get too excited) our idea
of a SPLASH in free agency was Larry Tripplett. The Colts crappy
excuse for a turd DT that resembled that of a slow fat girl. Dont let
me stop at Larry Tripplett.. lets see.. oh.. instead of cutting our
DEAD WEIGHT we sign our third string starter (I know oxymoron, but its
true!) white guy Defensive End to a $25 million dollar contract when he
hasnt done anything the entire time he has been here! The guy is as
slow as frozen jello. The second a running back puts the initial juke
on him, the runningback is 30 yards downfield and hes sucking his
finger sitting on the ground and crying for more money. THEN, you have
the other (im not paid enough white guy that pretends hes black guy on
the other end) "defensive end" that wants MORE money because the front
office paid the first guy more and this guy does "slightly more" than
the other "defensive end".
The news breaks that Ralph Wilson LOVES the tonka trucks and go carts
and big buildings he saw in Toronto and hes excited that games will be
played there instead of in Buffal-o. Again with the old man voice - "I
saw buildings and trucks and peanuts and oh my oh dear". DAH! Ralphie
is starting to sound like the owner in Major League that wanted the
Indians to do so poorly that they HAD to relocate to Miami? wait a
minute-----
Now Ralphie "poopie pants" Wilson talks about keeping the team in
Buf-falo but doesnt know if the "Economy" aka "his familys WALLET, and
his mental MEDS costs" can afford to stay. YET he will not sell the
team to the likes of Golisano / Jim Kelly / Thurman Thomas / and
friends because hes still alive and as long as hes alive and has the
ability to destroy what he built so be it!
This year: Our idea of a SPLASH in free agency is a backup QB from the
SH!@TTIEST team in the AFC Central - er north.. the BUNGLES. Thats
right Ryan Fitzpatrick. THEN our next big splash.. ready? Backup
center from the CAROLINA Panthers.. oh but he can play guard too.. hee
hee!
As I type this messy diatribe, the B-uffalo news continues to leak
stories that the Bills may get Laverneous Coles. Trying to keep our
hopes alive while Coles goes... "Hell No! I aint playin for Buffa-lo!"
- he said that to me when I talked to him in Florida as I was ringing
him out at footlocker. Hes waiting to see if Housh is let go from the
Bungles so he can play for - you got it - ANYONE ELSE.
I cant help it! I want to hate this team I REALLY lose sleep over
their incompetence in the upper "management". I just cant. I cant do
it. I can fume and smolder and wish bad things but in the end, it wont
matter. When the team is finally sold and moves to another city
because of Ralphs ignorant truck loving stupidity.. I will still follow
them.
Toronto.. Winnepeg... Greece (they have a colloseum)...
Now I wait for the team to get sold. Hoping sooner than later for the sake of watching a product thats worth my time.
Hell the Cardinals have even made the Super Bowl... The Browns will be next... then Detroit.
We are the Pirates of the NFL.
Minor League esc.. and a farm team.
GO BILLS!
