FLEMGEMS - Observations for the Bills-Jags game

"BBON9: When I heard Buff coach Dick Jauron say, "We have a sense that we have a chance to be a decent team, you know, we're playing OK so far," I wanted to yell out, "OH COME ON! YOU JUST BEAT TWO PLAYOFF TEAMS TO OPEN THE SEASON!" But ya know, I think he actually believes this and, more importantly, the team has bought into the attitude as well. Jauron seemed to use the phrases "suck it up" and "keep slogging" a dozen times Sunday."

"BBON12: Besides having, maybe, the best name in all of sports, Buff corner Ashton Youboty has already collected 11 tackles and a sack in 2008. Maybe the best open-field tackler I've seen so far this season, Youboty (pronounced, sadly: You-boatee) has a skinny 189-pound frame but a remarkable physical presence on the field and a high tolerance for pain. After the game, the left side of his face was swollen like he had just come from a bad dentist appointment and he had to shake with his left hand because his right was out of commission."

Hope Ashton is ok! We need his presence on the field, both on D and ST’s.

Glad to see someone outside of Buffalo taking notice of him….

Huh?

I like the part that he doesn’t even know that Edward’s 37 yard toss with the game in the balance went to Evans, not Hardy. Great reporter. Symptomatic of what ESPN has become: all trying to be the wittiest, and shouting the loudest in an even louder pimp suit, while the simple facts get lost. Maybe they should merge with NFL Network, and get Deion’s shouting and preening, and Emmitts inability to speak anything remotely resembling human languge into some new height of comedy sports.

Who would you rather have a conversation with: Emmitt Smith of Shannon Sharp?

My friends and I absolutely LOVE when Sharpe does the halftime highlights on CBS. Instead of watching other live games, we sit there and watch the halftime on the Bills’ channel due solely to Sharpe. He sounds like he’s slobbering all over the place when he talks….
