Headline: Richie will save the Bills!

[billistic]

The lede: Richie "FoulBoy" Incognito will lead the Bills to a dramatic turnaround in fortune. This is a marriage made in Hell, sanctioned by The Devil.

The Story: He may not yet know all 11 lines of the Bills offensive playbook, but Richie Incognito brings plenty to the table besides his ultra-nasty 305 pound frame. Yes Sir. Bills fans can look forward to Iggy gouging "Fat Bassturd" Vince Wilfork's eyes out this Sunday. Can you say "chop block"? Richie can say it, and Richie can do it...ha, ha, ha...(etc.).

OK, take it and run with it, next poster...

Good use of the word "lede."

with our luck, Wilfork will push him back into our own qb and blow out Fitz's knee.

That will be luck then Brohm can get in there.

That will be luck then Brohm can get in there.

...but not for Brohm.

OK then, screw it. 2nd paragraph (is that OK, Jan?):

This season, injuries have forced the Bills to insert several players from Villa Maria College into their offensive line's starting rotation. No matter to Mr. Incognito: He's played along with similar softies since his ill-fated 2005 rookie season with the St. Louis Lambs.
