Re: Andre Reed Open Letter to Bills Fans
Buffalo sports players always seem to have a special relationship with the city and their fans. Andre Reed is no different. I know he hasn't been as present as Thurman and Jim have been in recent years in Buffalo and in regards to the state of the team. He's been busy with putting on charity golf tournaments, his over the middle all purpose sauce and the Andre Reed doundation. Even what he said in that New Yorker interview about going to Toronto if they pay him didn't bother me. He played harder than anyone in his position and he never gave up. He never pouted and disappeared like some high profile wide receivers when things weren't going his way. He gave up his body to go over the middle because he knew that's where Kelly wanted him to go. He trusted his quarterback. So maybe he didn't make as much money as the players now a days do. So he needs to look out for himself. His letter shows how dedicated he is to Buffalo and that he still gives a damn. Even after all these years. I respect the hell out of that. Its amazing that he still feels the connection between him and the city."Hate is a lack of imagination."

Re: Andre Reed Open Letter to Bills Fans
It was definitely a very very special era of football no matter how you measure the NFL. Those of us that were there for it were fortunate to have been a part of it. Everything about it back then was great from the tailgating to the games themselves. It just isn't the same today. Even though we never won a Super Bowl, when that's your standard for success it's lofty.Originally posted by GreedoII View Posthttp://www.billszone.com/fanzone/sho...s-haters/page3

It's a protection mechanism.
You shroud your childish approach in a vale of pompous, intellectual garbage in an attempt to look smart and "real". You over-analyze even minute points and manipulate statistics to fit your negative view of the team. Again, to feel good about yourself and to protect from getting hurt.
Of course, the criticisms are obviously from someone who has no understanding of the team concept or what it takes to excel at athletics.
The true "realist" understands that they have no control of what happens on the field or behind the closed doors at One Bills' Drive, so they do the prudent thing for a spectator. They enjoy the games on Sunday with family and friends, cheer for their team and realize that it's just entertainment.
"I was an integral part in the drafting process of EJ Manuel," Whaley said Thursday on NFL Network's Total Access. "I was the person that handled the draft process and setting up the board."
"We are committed. I want you to believe me when I say that," Whaley said of building around the second-year quarterback, per The Buffalo News. "I always tell you guys that I'll never say never because I don't want to paint myself in a corner, but when I do say something, I do it and I mean it and I try to fulfill it."
"We believe the addition of Sammy is going to be instant impact, not only to our quarterback, but to what our offensive coordinator can come up with game-plan wise and how defenses attack us," Whaley said.
Whaley on EJ Manuel: "We think we got a gem in this guy." (2:30)
"And as Mark says, if in three years maybe he's not [our quarterback of the future], then I'll be sitting there saying 'hey guys', .... anybody got a job for me?" - Doug Whaley

- 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
