    Reality Check

    The Bills suck. We have crappy coaching, a cheap owner that is holding on tight to all the money he thinks he can take to the grave with him. NOBODY, and I mean NOBODY wants to play here. Anybody realize that all of our above average players on the team are home-grown? There is a reason for that, We are not signing top notch FAs because they don't want to, but because they can't. Our only hope is building through the draft (in other words MAKING them play here), and getting our coaching in order. This teams can only win through GREAT coaching of a mediocre team. If we can get into the playoffs, we can attract better FAs in the next few years. Until then, don't expect the Houshmazoos, Haynesworths, and Ray Lewis' to come a knocking.

    True. I mean look at the Lions. Same thing. They can't even find a coach that wants to go there. Oakland, San Fran...

    Re: Reality Check

    We're all frustrated at this point with our lack of success. But let's give free agency and the draft a chance, and see where we go from there.
    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?

    Why because I'm being realistic? Look pal, I love the Bills through and through, but I'm just tired of getting my hopes up. I, unlike the majority, like the strategy of the FO. Draft well, fill holes, get better over time. They are not wasting time visiting with players that they don't have the money for, or know they have no chance of landing. Everyone wants to win now but until we fill in all the blanks and get into the playoffs, we won't be attracting any big names.

    We have 57 players that are on the team so this post is obviously false...
