I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

Re: And it begins
Cheer the Buffalo on wearing the Bills future star quaterback's jersey! An absolute must-have for any true blue Bills fan! Good luck!
So they won't get laughed at in the future, Losman fans can just put the name Flutie on the back of their #7 jersey. -

Re: And it begins
Geez...I don't know about that one. I've never had an opposing fan talk to me about Flutie with any kind of seriousness...in fact, his name is always followed by some kind of joke. Let's not act like Flutie was God...he started brillantly and then would sputter as the season progressed and defenses locked in on how to play him. Flutie was just a glorified Kordell Stewart.Originally posted by TacklingDummyYou people are depressing me...try this out so my doctor can take me off my meds!!!

Re: And it begins
WHAT!? Flutie led the team to an 11-5 record before RJ came in against Tennessee in the playoffs. Flutie was un-predictable. No one keyed in on him at all.Originally posted by DarbyTheDinosaurComment

Re: And it begins
Honestly...this is just like the JP/TE debate...there are two different viewpoints.Originally posted by Mahdi
I liked Flutie...he was a good guy and probably thhe best post-Kelly QB we've had...but he wasn't a superstar...I assure you there are plently of people who would agree that he was less and less effective as the season progressed. That is how my memory serves me...maybe I've lost it.

Re: And it begins
In 1998 Flutie started 10 games and we won all 10. In 1999 he started 15 games and we won 11. In the 30 games he started for us....
He threw for 7582 yards, 47 TDs and had a 21-9 record. So far he has been the best Buffalo QB since Kelly.Comment

Re: And it begins
I agree...he has been the best post-Kelly QB. But stats don't show the whole picture. And neither do wins...we had a beast D those years.Originally posted by Mahdi
Besides, I was only chiming in to say that, in my experience, putting Flutie on the back of a jersey doesn't absolve you from any less laughter than putting Losman on the back of it.You people are depressing me...try this out so my doctor can take me off my meds!!!

Re: And it begins
I'm buying a cheap Bledsoe jersey so I can put Parrish on the back.
I didn't come here to fight, I hate fighting. Life is way too short to spend it on fighting! Go fight with yourself, one of you will eventually win!Comment

Re: And it begins
wow, not only are we mired in the current QB controversy but we're arguing over one from 9 years ago as well. Great.
Trent looked good last week but you'd have to be an idiot to spend $95 on a jersey from a guy who had one good game.
I bet whoever buys that has a closet full of jerseys of players like Rob Johnson, Justin Armour, Darrick Holmes, "Fast Freddie" Smith, etc.Comment
