    Maybe picking Richie Lucas with the 1st round, inaugural pick foreshadowed all the rest?

    Is it too late now, or the Bills doomed?

        "Riverboat Richie" was also a 1st round pick of the Redskins in 1960. Unfortunately, we "won" the battle to sign him, and the rest is history.
        Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

          So Wilson has sucked as an owner for YEARS, it's not just the last 10...comforting...He just happened to luck out hiring Polian...This is just more proof he is the problem.

            I would have cut Ralph the day after he missed the FG against the Giants.

                  If Ralph had a real coach in here for that game, it would have never came down to that FG.

                    he didn't even hire Polian. ((yes, here is the story again) BP was hired by Terry Bledsoe. Bledsoe was diagnosed with a heart problem and could not continue to be the GM. RW does what he does best - he hired the next guy in line - a simple promotion. Imagine if Bledsoe had hired somebody like Hank Bullough instead of BP.

                      Bad brains = 80 %

                      Bad luck = 20 %
