    Re: Mario Williams is "Fools Gold"

    so if you can predict a player sucks, he has 2 really great seasons, one marred by injury and one because he isn't the right fit, at the end of 4 years you can say you were right all along?

    sounds like most of the bills front office logic

    Re: Mario Williams is "Fools Gold"

    How can the BEST turn out to not be a right fit for any team??

    I thought that is what made players get the "best" title..

    They can go anywhere and do above awesome plays, consistently.

    Or is that just butt-talking?
    I was banned for calling Yardie a coward, by DB, in a tread about women’s issues happening right now in America. Nothing better than republican men silencing women’s voices, especially in the Buffalo Spin zone!!

    How did Randy Moss look in Oakland?

    How did T.O. look here?

    Fran Tarkenton in NY?

    Even the best players aren't good fits elsewhere, for whatever reason.

    Houston let him walk for a reason. Yeah, JJ is a stud, but they knew he wasn't worth the $. I honestly think he gets cut, and has to resign for a lot less. A team would be stupid to pay him $20M a season now. Oh, wait..................

    Mario made first-team All-Pro last year. Do you know what that means? Made the Pro Bowl the last two years for the Bills, and four times total in his career. Yet through all that time, we have to listen to your husbands same old shtick regardless of how well the man plays...even when coastal admits to not even watching the games. You don't watch the games, and you certainly are talking out of somebody's ass.

    **** the two of yous. It's called trolling, and you know it.

    What are you going to do next year if an when when Mario is gone?

    Houston let him walk because they didn't want to pay a DE megabucks. No more, no less.

    Back in the 90's did you think the Eagles didn't resign Reggie White because they thought he wasn't worth the money?

    And before Coastal comes out of the woodwork saying I'm comparing Williams to White, I already stated a page or so back that Mario wasn't at Reggie's tier.

    Free agent, being what it is, isn't an indication on what a former team thinks of a players performance capabilities.

    If Coastal falls in the forest, does Chickie make a sound?

    I do know that "Super Mario" isn't so super... look his best years will always be at Houston. He was an average, mediocre player for the BILLS. It sucks for yall because you just can't seem to get all the right players at the right time to even make it to the playoffs, sadly. I would just think that the BILLS could spend their money a lot more wisely than on blowing it all on some mediocre DE, who finds ever excuse in the world to blame someone else for his lack of effort on the field.

    One day your team will make it to the playoffs again, just KEEP BELIEVING

    I don't want to do the "girls don't know football" crap, but in this case, please leave the stupid statements regarding Mario Williams to your husband.

    No, he isn't super, but has been VERY good at times for this team, just not this year. He is FAR from mediocre. He doesn't deserve the salary, but that can be said about a lot of players, CEOs, GMs, actors, etc. The best years statement can even be debated, especially since his best sack year was here.

    Also, "fools gold" is worthless. Mario is not "worthless".

    Just stupid talk.

    So...

    It's not your team, and you don't watch the games, just like your hubby. Right?

    I'm pretty sure that you don't know what it means to be a first-team All-Pro. You've already illustrated that.

    So WTF are you doing in this thread? You don't even know what the **** you are talking about, clearly. If you want to troll, at least have some sort of frame of reference besides your idiot other half.

    Re: Mario Williams is "Fools Gold"

    Yay, I don't know what it means to be an All-Pro ...

    Please Warren Sapp was an All Pro and a Hall of Famer.. I still think he is a POS too ...

    I don't have to watch EVERY game to know whether or not a player is or isn't worthy of the salary Mario "All Pro Super Mario" Williams is worth... He isn't worth the amount the BILLS signed him for.

    He has played it safe, to have little no to injury so he doesn't have to waste all those millions on the medical bills he will be seeing post his NFL career..

    What's funny is you asshats can't even be honest about the kind of player Mario is, yet have the nerve to assume I don't even know what an All-Pro player is ..

    Bwahahahahaha...

    Who really are the trolls??

    They didn't want to pay him because he wasn't worth it. The Bills brain trust decided he was, and it's clear it was a mistake.

    Not arguing that some teams have difficult choices to make, even with players they want to keep. But let's be honest - if you're $100M good, then that team is gonna figure out a way. Those kinds of players don't grow on trees. So, they felt JJ was worth it and paid him instead.

    Re: Mario Williams is "Fools Gold"

    If you take Mario's pay this season and divide it by those 17 combined tackles this year, he has got almost 1.2 million dollars per stop.

    Holy income inequality, Batman!

    Rex is Fools Gold. I saw Darius at over 300LBS drop into coverage again. The team has quite on his stupid approach.

    Who really are the trolls??
    YOU and your idiot husband are the trolls...no, really.

    Why the personal vendetta against Mario? I made a point that you chose to ignore. I asked an innocuous question that you chose ignore. It's the same garbage from you two no matter how well Mario plays is the point. You have to have a GREAT year to make first-team ALL-PRO...pretty much top two at your position. But hey, you know that already, don't you? If you know that, you must also know that looking at the stat sheet will not tell you what happened. How many Bills games have you actually watched? Are you even a fan?

    What the hell does Warren Sapp being a douchebag have to do with anything?

    What's it to you how much money Mario makes? Is it really worth 61 pages to say that he's overpaid? I don't think too many people would even argue with that premise, which is the irony of the whole thing. That's how much he cost, though. What are you and your idiot husband going to do when Mario is off the team?

    That, and they were moving into a 3-4 where he wasn't a natural fit and still isn't.
