Forked Thread: Mario wanted #94 from the start

[madness]

For those still sending death threats to Kelsay...

Forked from: OTA Thread (http://www.billszone.com/fanzone/showpost.php?postid=3650856)


Buffalo Bills ‏<s>@</s>buffalobills (https://twitter.com/#%21/buffalobills) Kelsay and M. Williams were on the same page from the start. Both wanted Kelsay to keep his earned No. 90.

says he wanted a new start... 94 is his best friend on the Texans and he says he told the Bills 'from day one' that he wanted 94.

Adam Benigni ‏<s>@</s>AdamBenigni (https://twitter.com/#%21/AdamBenigni) <s>#</s>Bills (https://twitter.com/#%21/search/%23Bills) Kelsay on Mario Williams: He never asked me to change numbers... "respected" me as a veteran.

[Skooby]

New start it is, Go Bills!!

Oh thank God, I was losing sleep.

Kyle Moore had #94. He's now #54.

LoL

Kyle Moore had #94. He's now #54.

So, they had to wait two months to get Kyle Moore's permission to let their $100 million Free Agent pickup wear #94...?

Maybe it's me, but with Nike taking over the uniforms this year and them having a big "unveiling" of all the new clothing, if I'm Russ Brandon, I'm wanting to have Mario's number decided before that date, so that the jerseys can be ready to fly off the shelves on day 1.

You'll notice that Peyton Manning and Tim Tebow had no problems getting their numbers on the day they were acquired. Hell, the Colts didn't wait two months for Quan Cosby to decide if he wanted to give up #12 for Andrew Luck...

It's not a major issue, but I have a hard time believing that Kyle Moore was the holdup... Especially when a majority of people felt that Kelsay should give #90 up if Mario wanted it... Kelsay isn't a megastar or anything (hell, he might not even make the team) but I have to think he's a bit higher on the pecking order than Kyle Moore is.

Agreed that it's not a huge issue...but if you look on Marios twitter he said "I really want 90" on march 21st...also told someone else that he probably won't get 90 cause Chris has it.

Big. Whoop.

This is the biggest case of "if there is nothing to piss and moan about...I'll find something, and when I do, I will be as big of a douche as I have ever been."

If you are mad about Mario's jersey number, or you don't understand why he would respect Kelsay...you are either 12, or your ability to see what kinds of things matter in life is completely lost.

The best part is, while you sit and tap out your angry posts in your mother's basement, or even from your very own home that you work like a ****ing slave to pay for, in order to "enjoy" homeownership....the guy who makes 100+ million doesn't give a **** about his number. He at least has a reason to be superstitious, but probably has an understanding that it was his hard work, and immense talent that got him to this point...not his jersey number.

I'll say it since Schobel is a legend in my family. 1 of only two post 90's KElly teams.
-Schobel & Moulds Are that good. Err past tense.
--Moulds is an argument and I'm biased cause Reed cursed at my 7 year old lil brother & it started a campaign that if u switched Reed with Moulds=ring!
--but Schobel does have the stats to back it up. Sacks aside,, his fumble forcing was the best. Like mcGahee's stiff arm his 1st season starting.
-so is94 not special? IMO schobels name did come up to mArio. & we know there's a Schobel family cutting down trees somewhere thinking about it.

What the **** are you babbling about?

Does anyone ever understand his posts? They're a tier above PTI's.

I hope someday Mario will tell us the truth. Free agents who sign with new teams almost immediately chose a number--Williams did not.

If Kelsay is cut would he want 90 back?

Oh and you guys can stop painting Kelsay's lawn now!
