Quote of the Day

"We have begun that process and made a decision to head in a different direction...We thank Tom for his 10 years of dedication to our organization and wish him the best in his future endeavors."
                            -Buddy Nix, Buffalo Bills' GM, after firing head scout Tom Modrak 

Well thank goodness that the front office has finally decided to head in a different direction, huh?  I don't know who had the memo that the current direction wasn't working, but thanks for finally passing that sucker along!  Modrak's first round picks during his tenure in Buffalo include the immortal QB J.P. Losman, DT John McCargo, OT Mike Williams (who pretty much signed his contract, ate it at the negotiating table in front of Modrak, then ballooned to 400+lbs and Jamarcus Russelled his way out of the league), WR Roscoe Parrish (a 2nd round pick, but Buffalo had no first rounder that year), RB Marshawn Lynch (who's undisputed best moment in the league thus far came for another team), DE Aaron Maybin (who in two seasons with the Bills has ZERO starts and wait for it, yes, could it be?  Yes, yes it could!  ZERO sacks.  Jets fans, you thought Vernon Gholston was a bust?  Well, actually, you were right.  Gholston was "avert eyes, hide children" awful.  Maybin would still have to go 0 for the season this year to match the ineptitude that was Vernon Gholston.  Plus Gholston was the 6th overall pick and Maybin didn't come off the board until #11.  So not to shit all over Jets fans or anything, but uhh...Gholston was as good at finding the QB as Madonna was at finding the fountain of youth.  That bitch is old (JESUS!  WHAT IS THAT THING?  KILL IT!  KILL IT WITH FIRE!).  But I digress.  Right, Aaron Maybin: not a good pick.  Moving on.) and RB C.J. Spiller, which requires no explanation whatsoever, we all know that pick was "Charles Barkley Turrible." 

In any case, this is a Matt Millen-esque firing for the Bills.  Now if only they could change owners and relocate an entire city to somewhere other than a frozen wasteland on the border of socialist mapleleaftopia, Bills fans would be ecstatic.  What's that?  The Bills are probably going to move to an even colder location right in the heart of America's Hat where people care even less about football than they do in Buffalo?  Well uh, enjoy that!
