Bruce Smith :down:

[Jayhawk]

Reggie Is the Sack leader. I don't recognize Bruce as the sack leader.

RIP Reggie.

[The_Philster]

:huh: Reggie was one of the great ones, but why the hate-on for one of the greatest Bills ever?

:(

[BAM]

No hate at all for him, Phil. It only took him like 10 years longer than Reggie to break it... :snicker:

Reggie.. :salute:

[Philagape]

As a pure pass rusher, Bruce was as good as Reggie, but I thought Reggie was a better all-around player

ESPN said he had sleep apnea

is that something that all the greatest DE's got or something? :scratch:
BRUCE has it as well, according to reports from when he got busted for sleeping at the wheel

[SABURZFAN]

i was shocked when i heard the news.what a bummer. :down:

[SABURZFAN]

:( Reggie was the man. The rightful owner of the sack record.

Bruce Smith :down:


:mad:

[Bills 4 life]

RIP REGGIE

[Dozerdog]

God speed, Reggie! :(

[Gunzlingr]

Jesus, This week gets worse. He was one of my faves!

[Mad Bomber]

:huh: Reggie was one of the great ones, but why the hate-on for one of the greatest Bills ever?

Philster: I think you're WAY off base on this.

If you're referring to this....

"As great a player as Reggie was, he was a better person, and it isn't close," Detroit Lions chief executive officer Matt Millen said. "Every life that Reggie touched is better for it."

I don't think what he was saying was that "he was a better person than Bruce Smith, and it isn't close"

I think what he was trying to say was "If you compare him as a player and a person....he was a great player, but was an even greater person. It wasn't close." What he was saying that Reggie should be remembered more as a great person than as a great player!

Don't let the close proximity to the Bruce reference in the article fool you. That quote had NOTHING to do with Bruce.

[The_Philster]

Philster: I think you're WAY off base on this.

If you're referring to this....actually, I was referring to what BAM and BuffaloJayHawk said

[Mad Bomber]

actually, I was referring to what BAM and BuffaloJayHawk said

Oh....in the words of Emily Litella.....NEVER MIND!

In that case, I completely agree with what you said. I don't know why Bills fans would take this opportunity to bash a great Bill, even going to the point of giving Bruce a :down:

[The_Philster]

Bruce may have been a blowhard and lazy in camp at times..and whined about his contract but you can't deny what a great player he was. Besides, in retrospect, Reggie wasn't the perfect person either...and I'll leave it at that...I refuse to speak ill of the dead.

[CuseBilzFan]

This is definitely sad to see. RIP Reggie!

[Mad Bomber]

No hate at all for him, Phil. It only took him like 10 years longer than Reggie to break it... :snicker:

Reggie.. :salute:

Yeah, but....

Bruce Smith :down:?????????????????????????

[The_Philster]

Yeah, but....

Bruce Smith :down:?????????????????????????
He's a puppy as mybills and Cntry would put it...:;

[Mad Bomber]

He's a puppy as mybills and Cntry would put it...:;

First time I've ever been forced to neg him....

[RAMS FAN]

RIP REGGIE WHITE

[BAM]

Oh....in the words of Emily Litella.....NEVER MIND!

I like Bruce but I think Reggie deserved to keep that record. Bruce's attitude toward his coaches and teams while he was finishing up the record chase did not sit well with me. :idunno:

To each his own.

[Luisito23]

I LOVE U REGGIE, GREAT PLAYER...
SUPERB HUMAN....

REST WITH GOD MY BROTHER

[imbondz]

I was psyched when Bruce broke the record.

[PUCKER]

RIP Reggie. :(
