When more times than not you really are as good as you say and think you are, there's always a team that will give you a chance.
 
buffalo was desperate for something to revitalize the franchise. they were losing season ticket holders and the bills were in danger of getting traded off to Toronto. And when Dallas kicked him out, a good 90% of the rest of the teams, even the lolDetroit Lions, didn't want him. this is mainly a media play to get buffalo fans re-interested in the team. and we all know T.O. loves to have cameras pointed his way.
 
If you're hopin T.O. can re-vitalize your favorite team you're more of an idiot than T.O. himself is. I'm really hopin' the fans in Buffalo are smarter than that. Then again, he could possibly do like Andruw Jones has in his transition from the Braves to the Rangers. You never know, but the way he runs his mouth I don't see him ever pickin' himself up off the ground or it'd probably be better to just say I hope he can't.
 
T.O's numbers have to decline sometime. He's getting old, it's gonna happen. When it gets cold in Buffalo, I'm guessing this is the year it happens.
 
His cold weather numbers historically are significantly worse than his warm weather numbers, expect to see an even bigger drop off than usual in the 2nd half of the season.
 
I know many of you are not from around the Buffalo area. Well I am, and I can tell you a couple of things about the feeling around here about TO.

First and foremost, just about everyone is asking why he even received the key to the city in the first place. If you look back, Jim Kelly and Bruce Smith did not even get keys to the city before even playing down in the buffalo uniform. In fact, I do not even think they have even received a key to the city to begin with.

Second, the fans here in Buffalo are in fact true hardcore fans. Few cities can even come close to the amount of die hard fans. The tailgate alone is worth the 45 minute drive for me, and the 3 hour drive for some fellow season ticket holders.

Third, I know myself and a lot others are excited about TO coming to Buffalo for more than one reason. One being that he will divert attention away from Lee Evans. Two, is so we can have some emotion on the field. We all know what type of emotion TO can bring to the field, be it positive or negative.

We need some sort of fire lit on Jauron's ass because he is so un-enthusiastic it makes me sick. I am just waiting patiently when he yells at the coach for losing another game for us. I am sick and tired of being a sub .500 team. I am sick and tired of not making the playoffs. Is TO going to make us a playoff team. Probably not. Will it make us better, probably, but it more ways than one. We need to bring some attention to the coaching staff around here because they have sucked in the passed 9 years. And we need a change, yet again.

TO will bring that attention (I hope) like he always does, and even if it reflects negatively on the team and coach, maybe it will open some eyes in upper management. Even though I think Old Man Ralph Wilson will not open his wallet and make a change and he is just living out his last years.

Some perspective from Buffalo. Hope you enjoyed!
 
T.O is like the Beckham signing for American Soccer. Most people know his production will be down because of age possibly, just like Beckham, but what he does bring is ticket sales and attention. I get that, and Buffalo probably needs that. He can teach Lee Evans some good stuff. T.O usually does great in his first year with a new team obviously.

If I were Buffalo though, I would be more excited about Lee Evans becoming a better player, and the newly acquired Tight End Shawn Nelson who is 6'5" 245lbs and can run a 4.5 and is an underrated blocker (look up Southern Miss and Combine highlights, he pancakes Ray Maualaga like it's nothing).
 
I happen to live in buffalo too and Sirza is more or less correct. To is bringing the attention Buffalo needs and only time will tell if this move worked. my boss claims that TO will be visiting the Buffalo Wild Wings i work at too. i doubt it, but if he does imma get his autograph so i can sell it on ebay. :)
 
When we play Buffalo this year, it's going to hurt rooting against Shawn Nelson. I hope after we beat them by 14, Buffalo continues to have a good year lol.
 
I'm just glad he's not in my town.
 
dude they are sabotaging themselves already. I get the picture that the Bills are trying to make TO "the guy" that Trent is to throw to. If he starts doing that the other WR's on the team will start feeling left out. This whole media wave they are riding could come around and bite them in the ass. I can see him breaking tradition and cause trouble during his first year this time.
 
not after this year haha

its hard to understand why one of the best deep threats in the game stays a secret of the bills
