If you have a source, it's a great job by you, Brian.

BUT...when I was at another bills site, they did this all the time. They'd throw out something like this early so they could say they were first. If they were wrong, big deal, pull it and no one remembers. If they were right, they look like geniuses and get lots of praise for having the balls to guess right. Same site Brian worked for after I left. Most times, there was no source or "birdie":D

But again, who cares. If the Bills sign him, it's great for all Bills fans!

And you insisted to me that Quiz was 16 yesterday- even though both SackMarino and Quiz have been around for ever.



But... a guy with 60,000 listeners can't be wrong.



I think the Bills have a 75% chance of getting him, after reading Lenny P's ESPN link on our front page.

The rest is smoke and mirrors- If you guess right, good for you! If it is just a guess and it's wrong, you will damage the new BillsReport credibility. It's a tough journalistic lesson to learn-

I thought Bills Report has the news deal with Yahoo still- why haven't they posted this conjecture yet?

His FORMER coach & teammates are already talking:
http://sports.excite.com/news/09022003/v9963.html

"Has it ever been this quiet in here? I don't think it has," linebacker Tedy Bruschi, Milloy's rookie roommate in 1996, said in the locker room. "I think 'shocked' is the word. ... You sort of just shake your head and ask yourself, 'Why?"'

"Today is a day that nobody is happy about. This isn't the way we wanted this story to end," coach Bill Belichick said. "This is the hardest player that I have had to release. It was the hardest situation that I've had to go through like this, here or anywhere else."

John Clayton on Sports Center said he expected him to be signed this afternoon but it may not happen until tomorrow. The Bills, Saints and Vikings are the front runners.

D,you stated by me saying Bills are interested in my "common sense" .Pats released him and my souce immediately called me and told me Bills want him in uniform by 48 hours. There are 31 teams out there and I posted Bills are front runners THEN espn posts it AFTER ME so how is that a 50/50 chance Mr obvious??

Just ESPN so far....


Have you ever broke any news that turned out to be true????


I hope so. I wouldn't be very credible if I posted untrue stories. That's why I put news on our front page with the Source listed. If the source is wrong or right, they know where it came from.

I weigh the sorces as well. If a guy worked for the Bills and told me stuff that just doesn't add up over time, then i would not run to the net and post it. So far, all I got is your word.

Just call me skeptical. I see quotes in ESPN from "unnamed sources" - I'll beleive theirr "unnamed sources" before I beleive your "unnamed sources". Since I saw ESPN's Unnamed sources in print before yours, I have no idea who had it first.


If ESPN says we are close, I feel confident the Bills are close to signing him.

I've got nothing against Brian. If he does have sources he wouldn't be the first guy. It would be nice to hear if they are supposed to be inside the Bills organization. WGR did report earlier this afternoon that TD has offered him a contract.

Until someone proves to me otherwise, I'm still of the opinion that this has to go through a 24 hour waiver process before Milloy can technically sign a free agent contract. Buffalo can contact him during this period, but no deal can happen until some time tomorrow.

The technicalities and Brian's inside report aside, given Buffalo's obvious interest, favorable cap situation, and the advantages of becoming a Buffalo Bill (a team on the rise and in the division with an opportunity to stick it to his former team) I can easily see Buffalo being the front runner in the Milloy quest.

Profootballtalk is now reporting the same thing. The Bills and Lawyer Milloy have reached a verbal agreement. I still think that the contract cant be signed until tomorrow. This is another source, albeit not an official one. I am still not ready to celebrate until a more "mainstream" source reports it, but things are looking good.

TigerJ, there is no waiver system in effect until after the trading deadline. Players released may be signed by anybody as soon as the NFL is officially notified of the release:

Page 83

ARTICLE XXII

WAIVER SYSTEM

Section 1. Release:

(a) Whenever a player who has finished the season in which his fourth year of credited service has been earned under the Bert Bell/Pete Rozelle Plan is placed on waivers between February 1 and the trading deadline, his contract will be considered terminated and the player will be completely free at any time thereafter to negotiate and sign a Player Contract with any Club, and any Club shall be completely free to negotiate and sign a Player Contract with such player, without penalty or restriction, including, but not limited to, Draft Choice Compensation between Clubs or First Refusal Rights of any kind, or any signing period. If the waivers occur after that time, the player’s Player Contract will be subject to the waiver system and may be awarded to a claiming Club. However, if such player is claimed and awarded, he shall have the option to declare himself an Unrestricted Free Agent at the end of the League Year in question if he has a no-trade clause in his Player Contract. If such player does not have a no-trade clause and the Player Contract being awarded through waivers covers more than one additional season, the player shall have the right to declare himself an Unrestricted Free Agent as set forth above at the end of the League Year following the League Year in which he is waived and awarded.
