I used the word dominance, as it lets not go crazy with it and cited the field goals. You quote it and then rambled off some LT stats and said "nuff said"
That's a direct challenge to what I wrote by using facts that were completely irrelevant to my point.
Here is a tip if you're going to argue with someone because you don't like them, then at least read and remember what you're quoting . Otherwise you're just going to look silly.

PK, after seeing your new GM's press conference about Chan Gailey being the new head coach you have my utmost sympathies.
I would have given Leslie Frazer a shot first before I hired Gailey, poor choice that will only make Buffalo worst and piss off their fans even more. Didn't someone post that Ralph Wilson said he would do anything to have a winning team in Buffalo? And he sees Chan Gailey has his savior for the Bills?
I don't follow the Bills and even I feel bad for them.
LET IT GO...he deleted it. As Danimal alluded to, you like to cause trouble and then come back with the "woe is me" act. If you want to talk to him PM HIM. F*CK MAN...it's just old.
And I love the Dolphins signing of Nolan for D Coordinator.

Interesting stat from the Sun-Sentinel:
"Late-season disappointment has dogged Nolan in the past. Just three of the 16 teams he has served as a coordinator or head coach have made the playoffs: '93 Giants, '99 Redskins and '03."

Who the hell asked you? DAnimal deleted whatever it was he wanted to say, so I was giving him the option of telling me directly. But I guess it's no fun to insult me unless your forum "buddies" can also see it and subsequently "pile on". That would explain why he hasn't responded to me privately.
You know what's really old and comical at the same time? YOUR butting in all the time like you are the "defining voice of reason" of this forum. And YOU always adding your little insults to try and stir up the situtation. I was discussing something with Danimal and you felt the need to interject your little jabs like you usually do. Funny how you criticise others without seeing how unbelievably annoying you are yourself.
For the record, DAnimal was the one who took the discussion off topic and made it personal. Not me.

Last time I checked...it's usually you getting into scraps with everyone...not me. You're the only one here I don't get along with. You're the only one Danimal doesn't get along with. You're the only one countless others don't get along with (they just decide to make fun of you behind your back instead of in public forums)...so obviously there is a common denominator...I'll give you a hint...it's NOT me.
Pasquelloni was a disaster...Nolan is an upgrade for sure. It's not like the Dolphins were the model of consistent D before...so anything will probably be an upgrade.

This is THE NFL FORUM. Take this Jr High bullshit somewhere else. Damn man,reading is fundamental.

PK..WTF has happened to the Bills brain trust? Did Leslie Frazier even get an interview? Gailey is the only NFL coach I can think of that was fired in the preseason. By the Chiefs! They should have just stuck with Fewell. Ralph Wilson =

I think you'll agree that in 2008 the Dolphins D was decent but got burned by big plays. This year no Vonnie Holiday or Matt Roth and insert a young secondary. This time around yeah the D was very inconsistent and still got burned by big plays.
Just my opinion but Groh would have been a step down or at best the same result. Leslie Frazer had me excited for potentially installing an aggressive D.
Nolan has proven he knows what he's doing on D, look what he did out at Denver, from 27th to 7th overall defense in his first year. Yeah it's a step up for sure.
The game clearly has passed by Ralph Wilson. At age 91, he's running the Bills in the same fashion as he did in the 1980s and 1990s, and the game has changed.
Wilson's biggest problem is that he never found a good replacement for Bill Polian and the late John Butler as GM. Those two guys were the gold standard, and Polian still is.
The last two GM hires show how lost Ralph really is. Russ Brandon was the team's VP of marketing, very good at his job. He also liked to dabble around at practice and talk personnel when he wasn't selling tickets and creating marketing packages. So Ralph made him GM two years ago.
Only one reaction is needed: WTF?
Ralph replaces Brandon last month with a 70-year-old chief scout, Buddy Nix. Again, the 91-year-old Ralph must consider Nix a "young man." Nix is purported to be a very good judge of talent, but how much experience does he have with contract negotiations and working with the salary cap? OK, the guy was assistant GM under Butler at San Diego, and that's a plus. But I still have my doubts.
The head coaching hire also shows how Ralph just can't shed his old ways. He hired Marv Levy off the scrap heap, on the cheap, and watched his team go to four consecutive Super Bowls. So he continues to follow that same strategy, hire a retread or assistant for pennies on the dollar, and hope lightning gets trapped in the bottle once again.
It's so predictable. And it's getting really, really old. Just like Ralph.

As far as I can tell, DAnimal hates everything and everybody and you aren't exactly "Mr. Happy" either, so do I care that you aren't on my short list to be my next BFF? Hardly But thanks anyway for the advice. I put it right up there with Charles Barkley's golf tips
Jack, please. Shut it down. Scoop already threw out a warning. DB was totally right to say let it go, it's good advice. Even Brando chimed in. And I've already been more than lenient with you. Just LET IT GO.
And please, I do not want to hear either
1) "He started it." Maybe he did, but at least he knew when to stop
2) Your long-winded response about how you feel unfairly picked on, yadda yadda yadda, in this thread. Please PM me if you want to get a final word in; leave this thread alone with the bickering.

It's a damn shame Paul. Bills fans deserve better. Do you think they will end up in Toronto after Ralph is gone?

I hope not. That would be my football apocalypse.
How many games do you go to a year? Knowing you and your purse strings...ZERO. What difference would it make for you personally if they played in Toronto? Buffalo would still be the main market so you'd get all their games for free (assuming they sell out) anyway. In the era of satellite tv, 24 hour news coverage, and a zillion sports channels, it doesn't really matter where teams are located anymore. Hell, NONE of my teams are in Cali where I live...that doesn't mean I can't be a die hard and have access to every single thing a person living in the same city would have...besides actually going to the games.
I'm just curious why the apocalypse would be on you if they left...to a city that would spend money on the team with a new owner. You said yourself that Ralph Wilson is past his prime...so wouldn't a change be ok...even if it was a change of scenery?
