    I wish him the best; always thought he was a really nice dude. Glad I don't have to pull for him anymore, though.

    I wish him a good job at K-Mart. He sucked. Go away. Forever.

    He will see the playoffs before the Bills do.

    Re: E.J. Manuel signs with the Raiders

    On a good note, I did make a bet with Lecter saying no one will be left from the 2013 draft in 4 years. He owes me $100.

    Re: E.J. Manuel signs with the Raiders

    He's a good guy, handles himself with class.

    I bear the man no ill will. He didn't draft himself in the 1st round. Doug Whaley did.

    EJ worked, studied, and put forth the effort. But EJ was awful.

    Whaley's the bad guy here.

    Re: E.J. Manuel signs with the Raiders

    He's not going to make the team, or won't last past October if he makes it to September. The Raiders recent history is signing ex-Bills QBs who were starters in Buffalo & letting them go soon after. See JP Losman and Trent Edwards. Even Rob Johnson spent some time in a Raiders uniform.

    Why the hate? He's a decent person, never bad mouthed us. It wasn't his fault that he was drafted so high. Had he been a 4th rounder there wouldn't have been the pressure to be better than he was capable of.

    I wish him best of luck, unless he plays us then I hope he sucks.

    He has plenty of experience being an extra arm in camp.

    To his credit, he did play passably well subbing for Brad Johnson twice during their Superbowl run.

    Won both his starts.

    Don't mean he's any good but he did contribute on a marginal level that year.

    "The Black Era Has Arrived" said a certain AOL poster named DTAMikey (can't remember your handle so I'll just ballpark my nickname for it).

    Granted it was also a reference to Tom Donahoe's hiring but it was prophetic.

    I know right? It's a sorry ****ing statement when Tom Donahoe would be an upgrade.

    I'm just gonna go curl up in a corner and drink a handle of whiskey now.
