"I don't know yet what I'm going to do," LeBeau told the Enquirer on Tuesday.

The Bills are awaiting LeBeau’s decision but word is they do not expect to hear from him on Wednesday. Stay tuned.

From Takeo Spikes:

"I remember hearing (new coach Marvin Lewis) say at a news conference that he only wants players who want to be here and if you don't, there are 31 other teams," Spikes said. "Well, this is a prime-time situation."

Asked if his desire is to still play with another team, Spikes said, "That wouldn't be a bad idea."

It's sad that Lewis makes that statement (about 31 other teams) yet, they lock in Spikes and try to keep a player who wants out, around.

I agree! I will be in Buffalo ASAP once Takeo Spikes signs. I will get me a brand new Bills jersey with Spikes on the back! :D

Was Spikes the guy who tried to bodyslam Drew in the preseason and got injured instead?

Too funny! He's got a point though. If Lewis isn't going to let him go after saying that, then what does that say for Lewis!

fan,

Lewis knew exactly what he was up against when he took that job. The Bungals have been in exactly that situation before and have messed it up bigtime. Pickens, Dillon, among other lesser players. Their owner FO has been crap. I don't even know why their team is still in Cincy.


As to LeBeau, his waiting so long doesn't really give out the impression that he's champing at the bit to be here. IMO it's almost a slap in the face of Donahoe who went out on a limb to even create a position for him.


Ingtar,

presumably, what would McGlockton cost? He'd only be around for a year or two presumably as a S/T fix.

Good point. I know I am slightly frustrated by how long LeBeau is taking.

IT say's that he said a lot of crap at his first press conferance just to tickle the fans ears.


Sounds like another coach I know!
