Well, Buffalo isn't New York City, obviously, but is Baltimore going to be the city that Willis embraces? C'mon - Baltimore is that much better than Buffalo? Pfft. He'll be bitching in a month. Ah - my town gets trashed all the time too - mostly by NBA players who think it's on the far side of the moon and we all speak French. I believe the phenomena is generally dumb people with no imagination. However, this is probably the best for all involved. If he doesn't want to be there, you're better off not having him around. That said, of course, I wouldn't want to live in Buffalo either.
I guess my point of reference on this topic continues to be Jim Kelly. Even though his time is more and more removed each and every year from the present, he was a big name, from a small town, granted, but played college at "The U." It wasn't an easy sell getting him to Buffalo, either, but he came, was successful, and along the way found out he could make a life and a financial killing by being a big fish in a small pond. They built a quality team around him, and he was a huge, Hall of Fame part of it. Oh yeah, and he ultimately embraced the city, continues to do so, and they in return embraced him. I'll never forget Kelly's speech at his Hall induction, and how glowingly he spoke of Buffalo. It's a case of using intelligence in order to look at the big picture. McGahee's work ethic and attitude seems to ensure he'll never have the chance to make a moving speech from the Hall of Fame podium in the future.
Bravo dyams, as a life long fan of the Bills i couldn't agree with you more. I knew that draft day he wouln't complete his contract with Buffalo. With the exception of Kelly...who is god in Buffalo...i dont see Marv Levy drafting anymore "U" of Miami players as long as he is there...they tend to have attitudes.
my town gets trashed all the time too - mostly by NBA players who think it's on the far side of the moon and we all speak French. You live in Woonsocket, RI? We should hang out sometime.
So McGahee thinks that the night life in Baltimore will be superior to that in Buffalo? I have no experience with Buffalo; I've never even driven through the place. I love the city of Baltimore. I lived there for 3 years, met my current wife there, and thoroughly enjoyed all of the city's many attractions. Strangely, I do not remember any significant night life. Maybe going to Dundalk for a beer and a shot is really where it's at.
You live in Woonsocket, RI? Can't be that one, yerfatma. That actually IS on the far side of the moon.
As for Baltimore, my ex-wife lives there now. I hope to God McGahee meets her and knocks her up !!
I wasn't, I guess, a team leader. But if you aren't happy, you're just going to do your own job and don't worry about nothing else. They asked. But that isn't like me to be trying to get other grown men fired up. They know what they've got to do."Sounds like baltimores got a real good player coming to them, look how great Randy Moss is over in Oakland, real team players. I hear Ray Lewis choked the G.M. for the trade, cause he needed another buddy to go out drinking with, wear the B.P. vest willie!
Oh, there's night life in Ballmer, alright. It's called getting shot. Welcome to Charm City, Willis.
He can live midway between DC and Baltimore and hang out in D.C. with Agent Zero or Portis.
