Darryl Talley spent 14 years in the NFL, 12 with the Buffalo Bills. He endured four Super Bowl defeats, but was a part of a winning team eight of his final nine seasons in Western New York. The current cast of characters haven't won more than seven games since 2004, and last made the playoffs in 1999.
And Talley, who tweets in his spare time, is fed up. Well, he was fed up about 15 minutes into Sunday's Bills-Dolphins debaclement. For example:
"what a disgrace to professional football! I'm embarrassed 4 them"
"The Bills are being ran through like sh*t through a goose!"
"I've seen better powder puff games that were coached by nuns."
"The Bills should have to walk back to Buffalo!"
"The good people of Buffalo don't deserve this . I'm very serious right now."
"Does anyone out there have 1 billion I can borrow? I'd like 2 buy the Bills and give back 2 the good people of Buffalo the team they deserve"
The Democrat and Chronicle's Sal Maiorana adds this:
Ralph Wilson, the man Talley would have to fork over that 1 billion to and who is rarely at a loss for words, said: "Listen fellas, you saw the game, just like I did. There's nothing for me to say. What can I say?"So, right, things could be better in Buffalo. On the upside, the Bills have a win this season, Terrell Owens remains relatively well behaved, and J.P. Losman is no longer the team's franchise quarterback. It's all about perspective.
In truth, there really isn't anything Wilson could say that would please Bills fans right now. Except, of course, that he plans on firing Jauron sooner rather than later, though all he would offer on that subject was: "No comment."

Their line play sucks. Until that gets better, they won't be better.

The coaches can only do so much. The problem is they dumped experienced players to save salary and they have had poor drafts. The poor drafts are the biggest problem.

I agree, the line play has been bad on both sides of the ball. Isn't Cable supposed to be a line coach???

Every team TO goes on has problems, just because he has said nothing yet does not mean he wont later, he can't keep his mouth shut. Hey T.O. how do you like playing for a loser team because you could not keep your mouth shut? If you are as great as YOU think how come everybody keeps getting rid of you?

Nick, were you born stupid, or is it a gift, for so many years people blamed T.O. for everything, it's so plain to see the he's not the problem in Buffalo, he spoke his mind in Dallas, and that's a team on the verge of collapsing, please, give me a break

If T O was the problem in Dallas, why aren't the Cowboys kicking but right now? Seems like since T O left, the problems have got bigger in Dallas.

Someone should "clue" the author of this artical that numbers should not be used in place of words. Where did Ryan Wilson learn that the number "2" is the preferred replacement for the word two? And they say our educational system needs help. It certainly does!

WOW, you complain about someone education when apparently, your reading skills are lacking. He is quoting from a twitter in which people generally shorten words.

That wasn't the author that used 2 instead of to, that was Talley on twitter and most people do that on twitter. Saves characters.

Rodger perhaps before you start correcting someones grammatical skills you should check your own. A very "kurios" way to spell article you fool. Where were you educated you nitwit.

Hmmm...speaking of education....isn't the word spelled ARTICLE ??? go figure....glass houses folks.

Gee, Rodger, you need to get with the program. Twitter only allows a certain number of words in a tweet and conservation is important-just like text messaging-or maybe you don't do that either.

Rodger, do the words "Pot" Kettle" and "Black" mean anything to you? Since you're decrying the state of our educational system, there's a couple of question that begs to be asked; what school did you attend? Why didn't they teach spelling?
BTW (That means "by the way, BTW.) Ryan Wilson didn't use the number "2" for the word "to", those were quotes from Darryl Talley's limited character postings. So it seems reading comprehension isn't your forte, either.

I feel the same about the Dallas Cowboys (My Team) and about the whole NFL. It has become a full time joke. I can't even make it through half the games anymore without falling asleep. I loved the way Romo was throwing to our 8' guys across the middle. Oh Hell thats right we don't have any 8 footers on the team. If we are going to keep Romo in then i guess we need to get shaq to play football.....
