Sports - As I See It - Are Bills NFL's Sleeper Team in 2007?

Although the Bills aren't getting a lot of love from the national media heading into Dick Jauron's second training camp, I think there is legitimate reason to think this will be a .500 season or even better, ...

Why does Mr. Kilgore put a blank line in between each sentence he writes?

AND THEY MISS IT

I'll never understand why the Bills would trade for a player who is already under contract but involved in a contract dispute with the owning team, without first getting a new deal. Philly can't re-do Darwin Walker's contract, so they trade him to Buffalo to negotiate a new deal? How ridiculous is that? Shouldn't the player and his agent under those circumstances negotiate a new deal before the trade?

Shaun--

Shaun: Not sure what you mean; I simply use paragraphs, and sometimes for emphasis a paragraph will contain one sentence. If you look again, some paragraphs have three or four sentences in them. Maybe your computer is reading it differently, but I'm not putting a blank line in between each sentence.

Thanks for the reply,

Shaun-- My bad! I didn't enter it this way, but you are right! For some reason, it seperated the paragraphs by sentences, which I virtually never do, as you can see if you look at other columns.
Sorry about that!

Kilgore you rule!

"show me da money" I think that we`re all going for dreams that are going to take sometime to come true, I`m just like everybody else, it`s going to take time, money, and personnel with maturity on and OFF the field.

Clock is ticking on Walker
The countdown is on to see if the Bills can get disgruntled defensive tackle Darwin Walker into training camp. By now you know that he must report by next Sunday or be sent back to the Philadelphia Eagles, who would have to give the Bills their sixth-round draft next year in addition to the seventh rounder they gave Buffalo in a trade for linebacker Takeo Spikes and Kelly Holcomb.

Despite Walker's refusal to report until his contract demands are met, coach Dick Jauron hasn't lost hope that a deal will get done before the August 5 deadline. But that appears doubtful at this point. This trade was made in March. If an agreement is going to be reached, it should have happened by now.

Here’s how I see this playing out. The Bills relinquish his rights and the Eagles release him, freeing him to go elsewhere. Given that there are teams more desperate for defensive tackle help than the Bills, it’s not unreasonable to think someone will show Walker the money if the Bills don't.

Is Walker worth the trouble or should the Bills tell him to take a hike? Give us your opinion.

Once more, Bufalo sports teams show they DON'T know what they're doing!

Darwin Walker gets traded all right... to the Super Bowl XLI LOSERS! And they get a future draft pick as a result!

Whatever happened to trading with a WINNER... and getting someone who can contribute RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW?

Again, a Buffalo sports team showing it knows NOT what it does...

Hey, fans: Expect BETTER; DEMAND better! Expect MORE; DEMAND more! If they'd do right and show a commitment to WINNING, they'd operate at higher levels all around.

Re; Saving the "best" for last... Had the Bills taken Mike Sherman as coach, they'd have made the '06 playoffs.

Bills fans: Demand more and better from this team.

[STEVE]

I agree

i would like to know why the bills wont go get tank

[Bookey the Elephant]

They sure are sleepers, and so will I when I try staying awake during one of there games this fall.

[Lloyd from Lockport]

"i would like to know why the bills wont go get tank."

I'd like to know why the Bills didn't go after Joey Porter, or the Colts running back from Super Bowl XLI that went to Oakland.

I don't care one's off-field "character..." if he delivers on Game Day, THAT's what counts!

[Mary Ann]

Bookey the elephant Go back to sleep. When you wake up maybe we'll be in the playoffs and you can eat your words. I can see that you aren't a Bills Fan because No fan would say what you did.
