if taylor holds up, he will put up r.wilson fantasy numbers

as long as he doesn't turn the ball over (fumbles)

I love the move. Hopefully they'll finally catch lightning in a bottle. Hell, Curt Warner was stocking shelves before winning a few MVP trophies.

A lot of people wonder if he will take too many hits and get injured. With these kinds of qb's it generally doesn't take long to see the guys that know how to scramble (Wilson, Kapernick, etc) and those that don't (EJ). I think Taylor gets it.

Since the subject has come up I pose a question.

Is there a valid reason to not root for the hometown team? I will admit the Sabres are the only local team I root for. When it comes to baseball as long as it isn't the Red Sox I couldn't care less. Basketball... don't care, College football I root for Michigan (Grandfathers Alma Mater and we used to watch games all the time as a kid) NFL is Saints (and i was a fan long before the Drew Brees days. And NHL is Sabres.

I only like the Sabres as far as hometown team...
Basketball is the Bulls
Football is the Bears
Baseball is the A's

Unexpected conversation based on today's events:

1) Any kind of reference to Flutie (cringing)

2) Talk of Fred being on the wall. It's bad enough the hockey team has the Presidents Cup trophy on the wall. Fred was awesome but.... no business being on the wall.

Agreed. I don't know why that is a problem to have. Is it because the team didn't win the Cup? There is only one team that wins it all, and rarely is it the team that wins the Presidents trophy.

I'm fairly certain that each team that wins the President's Trophy puts up a banner saying as such.

IMO he belongs over Phil Hansen
Cookie needs to be up there before the conversation starts though


Hansen IMO just watered down the standard to get up on the Wall

It's also like saying it's not worth putting up the Eastern/Western Conference champion banner if you do not win the Cup.

I think it's worth being displayed. It's a great feat.

I have never lived in Buffalo but I am extremely loyal to the Sabres and Bills. All the rest of the teams in both sports can piss off. Being originally from Toronto area, I also like the Jays. I could care less about basketball. Would rather watch paint dry.....

P.S. I bought a #3 Bills shirt when he was the next coming of J.C. himself. Thus I have to support EJ for QB. I can't afford to buy another Bills jersey! At the very least, don't cut EJ!

Not going to even pretend to know what they base this one, but here's a list of "value" of Bills players in history:

http://www.pro-football-r...m/teams/buf/career-av.htm

Hansen is 3rd in Sacks, 6th in total tackles, 16th in overall "value"

Jackson is 3rd in Yards, 9th in yards/game, 41st in overall "value"


(Link to how they determine the "value" of players: http://www.sports-referen...ximate-value-methodology/ )
