Re: lindell released
Best wishes to a class act.
I could care less what others think...next to Christie, he was our best kicker for a very long time. He was great signing, back in the day.Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for witComment

Re: lindell released
His time has come and gone, he was some nice stability during a time that we really lacked it. Hopkins looks good though.COMING SOON...

Once those 38 Yard FG's became potluck, it was time to let him go.

Re: lindell released
Our whole kicking game is now in the hands (and feet) of Florida State Seminoles. Long snapper Sanborn, punter (and holder) Powell and kicker Hopkins.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?

Re: lindell released
Well, he was the Bills only kicker for a very long time.Originally posted by Night Train View Post
He has had a steady decline for years.
Nowhere near as good as Christie or Norwood.Comment

Re: lindell released
Does this mean we won't be punting from inside the 40 any more?
He seemed like a good guy....but I still hate him because of that 49ers game in '08.Last edited by ThunderGun; 08-19-2013, 08:25 AM.Comment

Re: lindell released
For such a big guy you would have thought he could boom the ball into the end zone with no problem, but that was never the case.Originally posted by TacklingDummy View PostComment

Re: lindell released
Since we're not expecting to go to the AFC championship this year, we should use the season to develop the younger kicker for when we go to the sb next year.Comment

Re: lindell released
Not much of a surprise.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.

- All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
- There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host. Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
- Please use this thread to report any issues you come across http://www.billszone.com/fanzone/forum/feedback-forums/billszone-q-a/6521455-upgrade-report-bugs-here
